World Rejector Chapter 9: Rejection of others belief
I have to find Teacher Nana—and stop her.I sprint through the streets, desperate for answers. Then it hits me: there’s a kindergarten nearby. That must be where Teacher Nana is with the children. I’m not sure, but it’s worth a shot.My phone buzzes. I snatch it from my pocket—Amber.“Noah, you idiot! Rushing in like that?” she snaps.“I don’t have time to argue!”“When did you get so full of yourself?” Amber sighs, then continues, “Listen. Lynn found where Nana’s hiding the kids. I’m sending the exact location to your email now. Also, don’t forget to—”“Thanks, Amber!”I hang up before she finishes.I check my map: Fort Storage Area.It’s far from here… if I stick to the road. But if I jump from this flyover, I can cut through the forest and make it in time.Without hesitation, I leap over the barrier. Gasps and shouts rise from pedestrians below, but I don’t care. The drop isn’t that high. I’ll be fine. There’s a shortcut ahead—a path through the trees that leads straight to the for
World Rejector Chapter 10: Our Little date
Standing by the fountain, I still couldn’t believe I was here. Amber had invited me on a date. A date? With all the girls in our squad, she chose me? It made no sense.A gust of wind rustled the trees, and I found myself replaying the ridiculous memory from earlier in the week.…“You… Me… Date… Saturday.”Amber’s words hit me like a truck. I blinked at her, processing.“You must be joking. It’s not April Fools' Day, so don’t say something ridiculous like that.” I continued my daily routine of push-ups in our hideout.She crossed her arms. “Are you deaf, idiot? I said we’re going on a date.”I glanced at Amber’s serious expression.Is she serious? I mean, she’s cute, and I’d love to go on a date with a girl like her. But after everything we’ve been through, I hardly see her as just a girl... Maybe this is another test? They’re all girls—maybe she wants to see if I’d make a move on any of them. Well, I’m not someone who falls in love so easily. So the right answer is to reject her.I sh
World Rejector Chapter 11: Improvement
The alarm clock rings, waking me up.The morning air was still chilly, but the sunlight streaming through my window made my body feel warmer than it should. My muscles ached from yesterday’s work and school, and every fiber of my being longed to stay in bed just a little longer.With a groggy sigh, I pushed myself up and stumbled toward the window, pulling the curtain shut. The room dimmed instantly, the invading light replaced by soothing darkness. Satisfied, I collapsed back onto my bed, burying myself under the sheets.I didn’t want to get up. I wanted to stay home and sleep. Just for today, I wanted a day off.Almost a month had passed since I met Amber and the other girls, and my life had changed in ways I hadn’t expected. Rest had become a luxury. I wasn’t even an official part of their team yet, which meant I wasn’t going on missions with them. Instead, I was stuck doing menial work—cleaning, running errands, and whatever odd jobs they assigned to me.It annoyed me.And yet, de
World Rejector Chapter 12: Before the White Storm
I was surprised by what I was seeing.The person I had been trying so hard to forget was now standing right in front of me.“Mio…”I called her name softly.“Noah.”She responded. Hearing her say my name—it was something I thought I’d never experience again.Our interaction was stiff. Awkward. There were so many things I wanted to ask, so many things I wanted to say… but my lips wouldn’t move. The silence between us was getting heavy, almost suffocating.“Mio… Why did you come?” I asked, still unable to meet her gaze.Mio glanced slightly to her left, avoiding my eyes the same way I was avoiding hers. This had to be hard for her too. No doubt.I needed to end this awkwardness somehow.“Your little sister still thinks you and I are together,” she said, holding up a paper bag. “She made a mistake and sent a parcel to my place again. I came here to deliver it.”She handed the paper bag over carefully.“Thanks… Sorry for the trouble. I’ll explain everything to my sister soon.”“No need,”
World Rejector Chapter 13: Childhood friend
A normal day had just ended at Valley Technological High School. Most of the students were on their way home. Some stayed behind for club activities. Others walked with friends, laughing and enjoying youth, while a few strolled hand in hand with their lovers.From the window of her classroom, Amber gazed out, admiring the peaceful view.She always wished every day could be like this—quiet, beautiful, untouched by chaos.Today, Amber remained in the classroom because she was on cleaning duty.Normally, another student would be paired with her, but they had to leave early due to an emergency, leaving her alone with the task.Amber played the role of the kind, model student. Always polite, always friendly.Cleaning the classroom was easy work, so she didn’t mind. But what weighed on her heart was something far more serious—the threat of another terrorist attack. Rumors said it would be much bigger than before.If the terrorists attacked again, this peaceful city would be thrown into chao
World Rejector Chapter 14: Arrival of the hero
Amber was pushed to the edge.At this moment, she had only one option left to survive.“I have to do it..”Ability users like Amber possess a rare potential to reach the full capability of their ability. It’s the ultimate manifestation of their power, a transformation called Awakening.Once awakened, their abilities become drastically stronger, often turning the tide of battle in their favor.For Amber, her awakened ability was called Meteor—a technique that allowed her to summon a massive fireball capable of incinerating everything within a 20-meter radius.She didn’t care about destroying the school anymore.All she wanted now… was to save her childhood friend—Yuki—who had fallen into the delusion that all ability users deserved to die.Amber steadied her breathing and brought both hands together. Her body trembled as she began to channel the power. Her eyes burned bright red, and the very air around her thickened as if gravity itself had grown heavier.“You're serious?” Saint White
World Rejector Chapter 15: Aftermath and Beginning
A few hours after the incident, police officers swarmed the ruins of the school, their flashing lights painting the night in alternating red and blue.The air still carried the acrid scent of smoke, and the remnants of the battle smoldered in the darkness.Amber and I lingered just long enough to assess the damage before slipping away unnoticed.As agents of the Dark Side, drawing the attention of law enforcement was the last thing we needed.Investigations meant scrutiny, and scrutiny meant risking exposure—something our organization couldn’t afford.The damage that Amber created to the school was expensive for sure.By the time the authorities pieced together their report, the incident was labeled another terrorist attack.I couldn’t help but scoff at the official statement.Technically, they weren’twrong... However, it was Amber who had reduced the school to rubble.After arriving back to Amber’s apartment, Amber collapsed into bed without even bothering to eat. Exhaustion clung to
World Rejector Chapter 16: Nether
Beneath the sprawling infrastructure of Neo Silicon Valley, hidden deep within the massive underground canal system, was a path leading to a place known only to a select few—the Nether.The entrance was narrow, dark, and coated in a sticky dampness that clung to everything.Massive rats scurried across the path, and insects skittered along the slick walls.But for those who knew the way and followed a specific path through the maze-like tunnels, it would lead them to the hidden sanctuary.The underground of Neo Silicon Valley was an enigma—a vast labyrinth beneath a modern city, forgotten by time and untouched by technology.And within its depths stood the Nether, a colossal temple-like structure carved from ancient stone. Towering statues lined its chamber: one of an angel with wings spread wide, another of a stoic human holding a book, and the third of a demon with twisted horns and outstretched claws.Each figure towered over the room like silent watchers.It was a place shrouded

Chapter 49: War Doll Extension Experiment
The night was heavy, suffocating, as shadows clung to the narrow alley behind an abandoned building.Through the thick darkness, a lone girl moved with silent steps, her petite frame almost blending into the gloom. Her long, light brown hair flowed behind her like a ghostly veil, catching the faint glimmer of a distant streetlight. Fuse.A security camera mounted high above tracked her movement, its red light blinking steadily.At the other end of the live feed, deep within a hidden research facility, a girl in a crisp white lab coat leaned closer to the screen, her voice steady and clinical as she spoke into a headset.Ring! Ring! Ring!The girl's phone vibrated in her pocket.She answered without hesitation, pressing it lightly to her ear."Fuse... Your target has arrived at the location. Your target is the man in the red hoodie. The retriever is standing by, ready to intervene if necessary."The researcher said in a measured tone, as if narrating a simple experiment rather than a m
Chapter 48: Fuse
I know I told her that I’m treating her to dinner, but why does it feel like she’s taking full advantage of it?The amount of food she just ordered… it’s enough to feed an entire family for three days straight. A normal person wouldn’t even dream of eating this much in one sitting.“So many…”I muttered in disbelief, staring at the mountain of food laid out across the table like a buffet.And then, there’s this girl munching through the plates like there’s no tomorrow, like she’s been starving for days. She stuffed her mouth full, barely taking a breath, completely absorbed in the feast in front of her.A normal person would have stopped her from ordering so much, but seeing her devour the food with such desperation... I just didn’t have the heart. Maybe this really was her first proper meal after a very long time. It made me wonder what she had been through.This girl... she must have been dealing with a lot.“By the way, we haven’t introduced ourselves properly yet…”I said, trying
Chapter 47: Saving a girl is always every man's dream
“Hey, scumbag! This girl doesn’t even know you!”“Are you trying to fool us?!”“This guy’s seriously pissing me off. What’s this? Are you playing the hero to look cool in front of the girl? That’s so damn annoying. I love beating up righteous idiots like you the most. People who think they get to decide what’s right and wrong!”The thug cracked his knuckles together, the sound echoing menacingly in the narrow street.The atmosphere grew heavier by the second. I could feel the tension thickening, violence practically radiating from these guys. Their eyes locked on me with pure hostility. They were ready to explode.“Again. I will ask. Who are you? Why did you call me Mio?”The girl repeated, her voice calm and detached.Shut up already!Why couldn’t she read the room? Was this girl completely clueless or just stupid?!I originally wanted to solve this peacefully, to get her out of this mess without throwing a single punch. But she wasn’t playing along. She wasn’t giving me even the tin
Chapter 46: Money Envelops
Too bad for Ayumi — she wasn’t able to come with me because of an important role a shrine maiden must fulfill. She looked absolutely dejected when she received the sudden call, informing her that she was needed for another ceremony.I honestly felt a little bad for her. Who knows how long this treasure hunting event would even last in the city? It’s not like opportunities like this come around every day.But for me? This was the perfect chance to snag some easy money.I pulled out my phone and continued reading articles about the treasure hunting craze, focusing on the places where the money envelopes were most often spotted.“I wish I had an ability to track things...” I muttered to myself. Right as I said that, one face immediately popped into my mind. Fina.If I remembered correctly, Fina was the data analyst of our team. She also had an ability called Tracker. Even without using her special powers, her brain alone would be more than enough to help me out with something like this.
Chapter 45: Treasure Hunting
“Mio!”The voice of someone unfamiliar echoed sharply through the air.Before I could even react, a violent kick sent me flying backward, and blood started dripping from my nose.A girl I had never seen before stood there, glaring at me like I was the biggest piece of trash in existence.Groaning, I picked myself up, rubbing my cheek that was already starting to swell from the blow.Meanwhile, the unknown girl rushed over and helped Mio stand.“Pervert! Pervert! Why does a worthless human being like you even exist in this world?! That’s it, I’m calling the police!”She screamed hysterically. And then, she frantically pulled out her phone.Things escalated way too fast.“Hey, it’s not what it looks like! I didn’t mean to look at her underwear! I wasn’t even harassing her, Mio, please tell her! Tell her it’s all just a misunderstanding!”I panicked, waving my hands in front of me.Mio thankfully stepped in.“Nanase, he’s telling the truth…” she said, though her voice was a little shaky.
Chapter 44: Catching up
Instead of feeling happy while munching on my snack, a bitter aftertaste was left lingering in my mouth. And no, it wasn’t the flavor at all. It was more like… my mood… And Amber asking for me to pay.Feeling grossed out and frustrated, I decided to clear my head by getting some fresh air.Maybe a short walk around the area would help. After all, this was a new place our so-called “new home” and I hadn't really explored this part of the city before. Walking around could be fun… maybe.That was the plan at least.But seriously, is it just me, or is the weather today absolutely insane?I wiped the sweat dripping down my forehead, pulled out my phone, and checked the city’s reported heat index."Thirty-seven degrees?! Are we living inside an oven now?!"I shouted, attracting the weird stares of a few random passersby.I instantly regretted stepping outside.I scrambled around like a headless chicken, desperately searching for any shade nearby.Finally, I spotted a huge tree with a lonely
Chapter 43: New day and Changes
I’m so annoyed right now.Seriously, it’s driving me insane.However, I’m not the kind of person who enjoys complaining about every little thing. I usually like to keep my mouth shut and just deal with stuff. But this? This is different. There’s no justice at all in what’s happening.I feel like those shitheads are constantly abusing their authority, punishing people left and right without even bothering to consider our feelings or the circumstances we’re going through.Of course, I’m talking about our professors.It’s been two weeks since the whole White Cult incident. Two brutal, exhausting weeks. So many people lost their homes, their livelihoods, their entire lives. Others are still struggling, still trapped in the process of accepting the horrible, unforgivable things that happened. Some wake up every day wondering if it was just a nightmare, only to realize it’s their new reality.What I’m trying to say is that the entire city was thrown into complete chaos.Everything collapsed
Chapter 42: Aftermath
After successfully capturing the White Cultists who had invaded the city and managing to defuse all of the bombs without triggering mass destruction, Arthur—S-Class, ranked Number One among ability users—entered Mayor William's office to deliver his report.The room was located on the top floor of Neo Silicon Valley’s municipal tower, its wide glass windows overlooking the damaged skyline.Ash still lingered in the air, carried by the wind like the whispers of the fallen.The mayor, a man in his fifties with streaks of silver in his neatly combed hair, sat behind a curved obsidian desk, his expression unreadable as he set down his digital pen.“What is the status?”Mayor William asked, his tone calm but laced with fatigue.The shadows beneath his eyes hinted at sleepless nights and the burden of leadership.Arthur, still wearing his battle-damaged tactical uniform, stood tall with arms crossed. His face was cold and composed.“Everything is progressing smoothly,” Arthur began in a deep
Chapter 41: No Regrets
Moments later.The darkness in the sky slowly faded.Above the battlefield, the full moon emerged—soft and radiant, casting silver light over the shattered remains of the city. The silence that followed was deafening, yet oddly peaceful, as though the world itself was exhaling after holding its breath for too long.A voice echoed in Amber’s earpiece.“Amber, can you hear me?” Fina’s voice cracked slightly, but she was trying to sound cheerful. “Seems like all the terrorists have been defeated and the bombs are all defused.”“That’s good to know.” Amber exhaled, lowering her weapon. “How about everyone in the organization? Is anyone badly hurt?”“Everyone’s safe. Mei’s already setting up for the karaoke party to celebrate our success. You better sing this time.”Amber let out a faint chuckle. “I’ll think about it.”“Anyways… did you defeat her?”Amber’s eyes wandered toward the two figures across the field. “No,” she said softly. “But someone I know did.”“Who?”Amber smiled faintly. “I
