Chapter 22: Rumi Warhowl (1)
The Mad Wolf of Loki Familia. A Level 4 adventurer known by the alias "Vanargand"—Bete Loga.
The moment I met that guy, our eyes locked, and I felt an odd sense of understanding.
This bastard is like me.
A rough life—maybe not exactly the same, but he's been through his fair share of h...
Chapter 372: Beyond the Plan
Moreover, there is a major departure from the original storyline here.
In the autumn tournament, Narumiya Mei led Inashiro Industrial onto the field as the ace pitcher, cleanup hitter, and team captain.
Initially, before the official matches began, the captain’s position was assigned by Coach ...
Chapter 371: Overview of Each School
The use of the new tactics and some issues with teamwork adjustment meant that while Seidou High School didn’t score as extravagantly in the following innings as they did in the first, the runs they secured were still quite substantial.
They scored five runs in the second inning, four in the ...
Chapter 21: Luke vs. Aiz
Now that I've reached Level 3, the world looks completely different.
It's like an adventurer power-up sequence! I feel like I could take off while shouting "WRYYYYY!!!"—well, I can fly, but still.
For my development ability, I chose Resistance. Endurance seemed like a good option too, but come on, ...
Chapter 370: Bronze Player Crushed by the King
The Gap in Strength.
It became glaringly obvious from the very first inning.
Against Nanamori, Seidou High's batting lineup was relentless—an unbreakable chain. Could you believe that both Eijun and Miyuki stepped up to bat twice in the opening inning?
Whoosh!
Po...

Chapter 20: LV.3
The 18th floor… What was it called again? Under Resort. It's considered a safe zone, and there's a village here called Rivira, known as an adventurers’ haven.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself there.
"Oh! 【Thousand Slayer】! You're finally awake!"
"...Who are you?"
"I'm Bors Elder, t...
Chapter 368: The Inevitable and the Battlefield
To be honest—
In Diamond no Ace, flashback-induced hits and scores weren’t unheard of.
But the match against Ugumori? That was on an entirely different level. Other teams, at most, had their ace pitcher or cleanup hitter recall a defining moment in their past and briefly un...
Chapter 367: The Starting Lineup and Trouble
"That concludes all the information on Nanamori Gakuen."
At Seidou High School, inside the Seishin Dormitory, the entire First String team had gathered as usual before their upcoming second-round match. As previously mentioned, neither Coach Kataoka, Coach Ochiai, nor anyone else at Seid...
Chapter 19: Monster Rex
The dungeon is classified as the middle floors starting from the 13th floor.
From this point on, it's difficult to clear solo, requiring at least a party of three. That’s why they say this is where the real dungeon exploration begins.
Only LV.2 adventurers can come here, so that makes sense.

Chapter 366: Adjustments and Recommendations
"So, regarding the starting pitchers for the upcoming games—Coach Kataoka, have you made a decision?"

Chapter 365: Training and Daily Life
"Hey, hey, hey, Furuya-kun! I said, Furuya-kun!"
"Hmm?"
Furuya seemed to have been daydreaming. He blinked in confusion at Eijun, wondering why he was being called so loudly.
Seeing Furuya’s innocent expression, Eijun didn’t even know what to say.
What a simple-minded ki...
Chapter 18: Hostess Of Fertility
Finally, it’s done.
"Damn it, it took me two months to write and revise this story. This was ridiculously exhausting."
"Was it really that hard?"
"If I were just plagiarizing, it wouldn’t have been so bad. But even as a copycat, I’ve got my pride. I had to adapt it properly to f...
Chapter 364: Rising Ambitions, an Unordinary Heart
This led to an unavoidable situation—
No matter where Eijun appeared at school, he instantly became the center of attention.
Like right now.
Even though he was simply sitting at his desk, seriously studying the scoresheet, he could feel the countless gazes directed ...
Chapter 363: After the Victory
Outside the third-year classrooms at Seidou High School.
It was Monday morning, right after their victory over Teito High School.
"Heh, you guys handled Teito pretty easily, huh? Two home runs and an 8-1 win—nice job. Looks like I don’t need to worry about you lot."
With a wide grin,...

"Clap, clap, clap, clap!"
As the game concluded, a wave of applause erupted from the stands. Though the final few innings had turned into a one-sided domination by Seidou over Teito, the first four innings had still been a solid matchup.
A clash between powerhouse teams, showcasing t...

Mukai has been completely conquered.
From the bottom of the fourth inning onward, the game had fully shifted into Seidou’s rhythm.
In the bottom of the fifth inning, facing the second-year relief pitcher Kuriyama, Seidou showed no mercy.

"Clutch hit!"
"Haha! Maezono-senpai, that was brilliant!"
"A perfect swing! I knew you could do it, Maezono!"
"No outs, runners on first and third! Zono, keep it going! Keep pushing forward!"

Chapter 359: Teito Battle – Seidou’s Advance
At the crucial moment, he chose a five-seam fastball and directly struck out Teito High’s cleanup hitter. Despite having a runner on second base, Teito still couldn’t equalize the score. Three outs—side retired! The Ace of Seidou, Sawamura Eijun, continued his dominance, not allowing ...
Chapter 15: Party Play
When I woke up in the morning, Riseria and Lili were already awake before me.
That's unusual, I thought, but then the two of them dropped a bombshell.
"I want to go to the dungeon too," said Riseria.
"Lili wants to go as well," added Lili.
"... Riseria, I can somewhat understand. But Lili...
Chapter 14: The Will of the Weak
When Liliruca Arde opened her eyes, the lingering warmth she felt in her bedding still didn't feel real.
The faint warmth she had once known had been shattered by the very people who were part of the same [Soma Familia] as her. She thought she'd never feel it again.
But one person had brought...
Chapter 358: Complete Domination in the Battle Against Teito
The Decisive Pitch—A Changeup
Against this batter, there was no room for hesitation. Taking a calculated risk was necessary. For a right-handed cleanup hitter like Kengo, this pitch was the perfect choice.
Whoosh—
Seidou’s battery, fully committed, pou...
Chapter 357: Strategies for the Teito Battle
Whoosh—
Ping!
A sharp, resounding crack echoed through the stadium.
A streak of white light shot across the sky, soaring past the infield before slamming into the center-left field wall. The entire crowd gasped in astonishment.
Top of the fourth inning. Two outs.
Chapter 13: Riseria's Resolve
"The least scared person walking late at night is someone walking with a lot of friends. With two people, the fear is halved… and if you're walking with about 100 people, you won't feel scared at all."

Chapter 356: Teito Battle – The Unexpected
"Fastball, fastball, fastball."
Standing in the batter's box, Kajiyama's eyes glinted with a cold sharpness, giving Eijun on the mound an unsettling feeling. It was as if he had become the sole target of Kajiyama’s unwavering focus.
Eijun’s brows furrowed slightly.
"Don...
Chapter 355: Teito's Battle – An Impenetrable Fortress
"Taiyou, you don’t need to use too much technique against this batter. Just overpower him with pure strength. If he doesn’t hit the sweet spot with a wooden bat, it’ll be hard for him to make solid contact."
During the first-inning matchup, Kengo had already noticed Har...
Chapter 12: Loki (2)
Luke couldn’t respond and immediately ran back home with Loki on his back to seek help.
Only a god can deal with another god. That meant the only answer was their familia’s patron deity—Susanoo.
“Susanooooooo!!!”
“I’m not some kind of four-dimensional pocket, you know? What’s going...
Chapter 354: Teito Battle – The Unyielding Sun
Eijun’s direct and overwhelming approach undeniably put immense pressure on Teito High’s players.
After all, wasn’t the rain supposed to hinder pitchers?
Wasn’t it supposed to make breaking balls harder to control, meaning batters could just sit on fastballs?
Ye...
