Threadmarks: Chapter 20 : For Now, I’ll Stick to Teasing Filvis and Be Patient
"A monster—casting a spell?!"
A pitch-black magic circle manifested at the base of the massive spirit-tree's lower half. Inscribed with ominous patterns, it emitted a dark magical light that surged upward.
Magic was a gift reserved solely for humanity. It was an impossible act for monsters...

There are precious few opponents capable of killing me at present, with the exceptions of my dear Revis, Ottar, and the...
When that "God" first met the white-haired boy—Al Cranel—only one primal desire gripped his heart: to possess him at any cost and claim him for his Familia in every sense of the word.
The boy's hair, white as virgin snow, and his eyes, which held a pure passion more crimson and diabolical than...
The 24th Floor. Following Asfi's instructions, a mage from the Falum race used fire magic to blast a breach through the wall of green flesh blocking the path to the Pantry. The party advanced through the corridor cleared by the pulsating masses of organic matter until suddenly, Lulune, who was...
The 32nd Floor. The strength of the monsters here differs fundamentally from those appearing before the 29th Floor. Creatures such as the Blood Saurus possess formidable capabilities, challenging even second-class adventurers. This range represents the final hurdle of the lower floors before...
Threadmarks: Chapter 15 : Feelings, Not Just Fear, Have an Expiration Date — By: The White-Haired Madman
<Filvis Challia's POV>
I first encountered Al Cranel nearly three years ago. It was shortly after he had successfully resolved the "Black Goliath Incident"—right around the time the moniker "The Banshee" began to cling to me like a curse.
"── What did you say? Repeat those words, human."...
Threadmarks: Chapter 14 : Written as "The Thieving Wolf," Read as "Bete Loga" — By Ais Wallenstein
This is a tale from the future—a future not so far away.
"It would have been better if I had never met you—Al Cranel."
She deactivated her "Body Separation" magic. Fueled by the power of countless devoured magic stones and absorbed jewels, her body—which had already reached the peak of Level...
Threadmarks: Chapter 13 : Go and Enjoy Your Time with Ishtar
The Messenger of the Gods; this was his title in the Celestial Realm. True to his name, he moved through every corner of existence to deliver information—mixing it with lies whenever necessary—to gods, goddesses, the Goddess of Beauty, the God of War, the Goddess of the Hearth, the Great God...
Nearly half a month had passed since Bell Cranel began his training under Bete Loga. It was entirely unprecedented for the "Fierce Wolf" Bete Loga, a prominent leader of the Loki Familia—the city's strongest and most perpetually busy faction—to train a rookie like Bell, who belonged to a small...
Threadmarks: Chapter 11 : I Hate You Because You’re Always Smiling—Get Depressed Already
Al Cranel's morning begins early.
As the sun rises, he grips his sword and slips into the Dungeon. He specializes in rapid solo penetrations, recently reaching the lower floors—specifically the 25th floor—within a mere hour.
There, at the Great Fall, he faces monsters armed with "Natural...
The 37th floor contains a vast expanse known as the "Fighting Arena," where monsters emerge in an endless, torrential stream.
It is a subterranean fortress that evokes a strange sensation, as if one were trapped inside a gargantuan, milky-white dome. Its walls and the entirety of its infinite...
'Revis, finally we meet.'
The woman standing before me was the red-haired creature, Revis. She was one of the few individuals who possessed the potential to kill me in my current state.
To be clear, I had no desire for suicide. Rather, I wanted to exert every ounce of my effort, protect my...
Lefiya Viridis watched the battle, her eyes widening in sheer disbelief at the staggering disparity in strength. She had heard many times that the power of the Loki Familia's greatest heroes surpassed even that of her mentor, Riveria Ljos Alf.
However, seeing it with her own eyes was a...
Threadmarks: Chapter 7 : The Saint... Sorrow’s Arch-Nemesis
"Did you say... the price is eight hundred and fifty million Valis?!"
"That's right. And I don't mind if you pay in installments."
Impossible. The price was staggering. It cost more than Riveria's staff; with that kind of money, I could buy three houses in the city's most elite districts. Even...
Threadmarks: Chapter 6 : Monsterphilia and the Banquet of Beasts
The Hephaestus Familia stands as the premier faction specializing in blacksmithing, boasting numerous master smiths who carry prestigious titles. Under the leadership of the Goddess of Smithing, Hephaestus, this Familia—alongside the Goibniu Familia—reigns over the most elite workshops in...
Threadmarks: Chapter 5 : Bete: Suicide Squad Leader and Official Monitor of the Al-Ais Relationship
To me, Bete Loga, that guy Al Cranel looked like a mirror reflecting my own past.
Four years ago, when Loki brought him in looking like a complete wreck, his eyes reminded me of myself—back when I was a raging mess because I couldn't protect what I cherished most and ended up the sole survivor...
The room atop the Tower of Babel—the white skyscraper erected at the heart of Orario to plug the Great Chasm—sat at a height that brushed the very clouds. Despite its staggering altitude, the space remained open, offering a sense of liberation as if one stood in the vast wilderness. Within this...
Threadmarks: Chapter 3 : I Learned the Reason I Crave Strength, So Surpass Me and Move Forward
The "Center of the World"—this is how the capital of heroes, the Labyrinth City Orario, is often described.
This city acts as a plug covering the "Great Chasm" carved into the earth since time immemorial. It was not designed to withstand external sieges; rather, it was built to prevent the...
Threadmarks: Chapter 2 : Yes, Dying at the Hands of a Worm Would Be an Utterly Wretched Scene, So I’ll Pass
<Ais's Perspective>
I wonder when my mind first began to associate him with the image of my father.
My first encounter with Al Cranel occurred when Loki brought him in to join the Familia. She was even more jubilant than usual that day.
He had hair as white as snow and a body that, despite...
Threadmarks: Chapter 1 : Don’t DanMachi Characters Possess an Incredible Capacity for Suffering?
Hooves capped the feet that trampled the earth, and the hide and hair covering their bodies appeared entirely inhuman. Dual horns sprouted from hairless heads, and the fangs protruding from their maws were no less sharp. Their numbers easily exceeded a hundred, their crimson eyes scanning the...
