Takechi left the stage, with a lot of clapping and laughter following him. A man approached him with tears in his eyes from so much laughter and said, “Boy, that was hilarious! Let me tell you, I have been in this business for quite some time, and it’s always a good idea when a comedian uses something particular about his looks or his personal experience to make a funny act. You are on the right track. Continue creating funny stories like that one, and I bet you will be big!”
Takechi Hito vigorously nodded, because he recognised the man from previous visits. He also knew that the man was a famous comedian, and it was rumoured he made an appearance now and then in that club, which was why Takechi started to go there. Takechi made a dee

In the morning, Hangaku Mae woke up with an alarm on her mobile phone. Tomiko Hari grunted, still half asleep, when Hangaku shook her, “Five more minutes… mom…” Hangaku shook her again. “Who are you calling mom, dumbass? Get up already! I don’t want to be late because you were giggling most of the night instead of sleeping!” Tomiko sat on the bed and rubbed her eyes. “I didn’t do that all night! Maybe a little before falling asleep. Besides, who are you to complain? I felt you moving a lot, and I think I heard you moaning during the night!”

The Princess sat on the empty chair near Sakamo and reached for a plate that she began filling with food while speaking, “That would be difficult indeed, but you would probably manage a good excuse. You could say we met two years ago when I was having a tantrum in front of my Elementary School because I didn’t want to go, and I screamed for help.” “That was what happened, remember?” The Princess nodded with a big smile. “Yeah, you thought my bodyguards were criminals that were trying to kidnap me, and you knocked them out! I spent all day with you, we went to an amusement park, we wal

Sunday morning. The sun was bright, the weather was warm, and Hangaku Mae was near the main entrance of the Yoyogi Park. She woke up very early because she was so nervous about the date with Sakamo Ryu. She tried to call him after dinner the previous night, but he only sent a message saying that there were too many curious people around him that would nag him a lot if he answered the phone in front of them. Later, she sent him a message when she was already in bed asking if he could talk to her and got a response wishing her goodnight, but he was tied in a game against a very nasty woman, and he couldn’t talk, or she would take that opportunity to win. Hangaku looked at the clock on her mobile phone. There were still fifteen minutes to nine. Time was going by slowl

When Sakamo was in his room again and already in his Azurath clothes, he grabbed all the weapons he had stashed in the closet and took one deep breath before grabbing his pendant and touching the knob of the closed door. “By the power of the fallen Spirits, use the same time and open a Passage to Azurath!” Sakamo opened the door and went into the light. On the other side of the new door, Shinatobe was seated on the edge of the bed, playing with the frills of her dress. She raised her eyes as soon as he exited the closet and gave him a big smile. “Look what the ca

The afternoon went by, with everyone peacefully riding their horses or making them run for a while, for a change of pace. Sarutahiko Okami was in the middle of the group with Suijin, and Alex was at the back, with Anika Wright happily chatting with him, while he listened to her very attentively. Okami frowned, because she wasn’t liking to see him so interested in the conversation of another woman, but she then noticed that from time to time, Alex’s Magic increased a little, as he sent a gush of air to the path behind them, like if he was searching for something. Okami disguised a smile. She un

Alex threw two copper coins to the smiling boy, who was waving his fluffy tail, and answered, “One coin for each of you! I suppose we can use the communal baths unless anyone wants a private hot tub. Take care of the rooms. I think two people per room will be enough. Can you see if there are four rooms available? If not, see how many are free so that we can decide how to divide them among us.” The other Dog-kind boy was staring at the big grizzly bear Suijin was mounting, and asked, “Mister Alex, is that beast safe to be inside the stable? I don’t want to find the horses eaten in the morning!” Latest Chapter

Alex Brim was already thirty-five, and for the last two years, he had been living permanently in Azurath because his forever-young look was making people suspicious of him on Earth. So, without informing anyone, he purchased two one-way tickets to Nepal for himself and Hangaku Mae, leaving on his kitchen counter a single note stating that they were going to live in a secluded monastery deep in the mountains for their retirement, leaving behind his stressful work at the Earthquake Institute and as a part-time teacher at Tokyo Metropolitan Nishi High School.

After nearly an hour of walking, they arrived at the vicinities of the main gate of the Imperial Palace. Sakamo thought it was weird if she lived there, but probably her parents worked there. To his surprise, a group of four men ran to them as soon as they recognised the Princess, and one of them shouted to Sakamo, “Let her go! Why are you holding her hand like that? Why did you kidnap her?” Sakamo felt Hiko trembling as she hid behind him, and he whispered, “What do these guys want? Are they friends of those guys this morning?”
