Cub 157: Side Story I · When That Powerful Holy Cas Descended ②
And it didn’t just seem severe—it was extraordinarily so. Amos’s previously relaxed expression vanished without a trace. He switched off his communicator, his muscles tensing slightly, his guard up. Because Amos also sensed that Feeney was not quite the same as the Feeney he knew. When the wings on Amos’s back spread and fanned out,… Continue reading Cub 157: Side Story I · When That Powerful Holy Cas Descended ②
Tricked 063: Passing Through the Mortal World
Her abilities had never been able to change the past—Pingping had known this for a year. She only seemed formidable; in reality, she could only alter things that were vague or ephemeral.

Enduring Jiang Yan’s probing gaze, Pingping… Continue reading Tricked 063: Passing Through the Mortal World
Cub 156: Side Story I · When That Powerful Holy Cas Descended ①
[Timeline note: In Holy Cas, at the point when Amos and the others have just come of age and Ebinino has not yet reached his death node, the entire narrative overlaps and traverses to one year after the adult Zao, whom Amos once saw in a future vision, arrives at Holy Cas.] Pain— Everything hurts—… Continue reading Cub 156: Side Story I · When That Powerful Holy Cas Descended ①

Blood type changes. After transplantation, the patient's blood type will match that of the donor. Jiang Yan stared at these two sentences for a long time before finally letting out a quiet tsk. She recalled her conversation with Le Yi in the hospital room. When Le Yi spoke of her experiences with Pingping and the… Continue reading Tricked 061: Newspaper
Cub 154: Main Story II (Little One) · Past Daily Life Not Shown ①
It was the end of the year when Holy Cas had finished establishing its barrier line. Little Chu Zao was still a seven-year-old cub who hadn’t yet grown up.
