"I've been waiting. Now, please come." Once we arrived at Aogasaki's residence, she gave her greetings and guided us to a reception room.

Outside the view of a balcony, there stood splendid pine trees and cherry trees within a yard, and a glimpse… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v3 Chapter 1 Part 2

Is it Tough Being a Friend? v3 Chapter 1 Part 1
An Unexpected Substory As far as I know, the girl named Aogasaki Rei has "two faces." ──One face is that of a stoic swordswoman who is the heir to an age-old swordsmanship dojo. Like one who seeks their own path, she's a strict, straight-laced warrior girl...and she's immensely popular, even in Oumei High School. It… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v3 Chapter 1 Part 1

It was a spectacle to see the five sacred beings standing together in a line. A majestic tiger, white as snow. An ultramarine dragon, clad in a current of air. A bright crimson avian, set ablaze. The jet black tortoise was there as well, still holding its vacant expression of confusion. Then, there was the… Continue reading Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 7
Is it Tough Being a Friend? v2 Chapter 4 Part 6
Now that Kyouka had suddenly double-crossed me, the state of the battle had taken a complete turnabout in the blink of an eye.
