LV999 Villager Vol 2 Chapter 8.7

Part 7

NT: Hahaha, I’m sorry about the delay? I had to attend to certain personal matters and … Well, that does not really matter, I was able to fast enough with the translations in general and I ended up making up for lost time and … Well, it does not matter, what does matter is that it’s over … NOW TO READ
NT2: NT2: I decided to change the way I frame the dialogs, now, instead of using the brackets, I mean, these things, “[X]” will start using these others, “「 X 」”, the “brackets” will use them to , whatever I’ve been using those other things so far … although I only started using them recently …

Said the Dark Dragon with a tone full of admiration on his words as he closed his eyes, then,  at the next instant, a shower of heat rays launched* from the spheres of pale light fell again .

NT: * I made a little mistake in the previous chapter, there i said that the spheres “were thrown” against Kagami at a speed that made them look like “heat rays”, but in reality it was that the pale light spheres “threw” the heat rays … that

『If that’s what you want, then try again … If your words are true, if you have the power to open the doors to the future …! Come on and show that me you can overcome this trial!』

「Is that serious !? Repeat that one more time … There’s no way he can handle it! Kagami-dono could have agreed, but this is still too much! What will happen if he die?! 」

『This is the moment of truth . If he can’t overcome this, then he will die anyway when he moves on to the next stage 』

「…! Kagami-dono! Kagami-dono … !? Say something, please …! 」

When the heat rays fell on Kagami again, they caused a violent explosion . The cloud of dust caused by the numerous explosions of the heat rays began to spread as the heat rays fell on Kagami .

Menou didn’t think Kagami was able to survive that . Unlike that time during the Battle in Salumeria, this time there would be no one to help Kagami recover . Moreover, how could he expect Kagami to be able to withstand that incredible attack, even when his body hadn’t yet been able to fully recover from the previous attack, even after having used the power of his Skill?

Menou had recognized the Dark Dragon as a matchless enemy after the previous attack, but this attack had been much more intense than that . In fact, he was sure that Kagami couldn’t survive that .

「Kagami-dono … KKagami-donoooooo!」

「You called me?]

「Kagami- … !? … Eh? 」

Menou couldn’t avoid let out a puzzled voice after hearing that unexpected response .

In the moment Menou turned to the source of that voice, he could see Kagami, who was looking at the place where the rays struck from a place a little further apart, with his arms crossed and his usual carefree look .

『What … What?』

On the other hand, the Dark Dragon, who had just noticed that Kagami had moved without he noticing it, showed a surprised look as he ceased his attack .

『How did you get out of there? You should have been attacked from all directions … It is impossible that you could escape . No, even if you tried to escape, the explosions should have made it impossible for you to move at will … What did you do?』

「That magic has a severe problem . Don’t you think so?」

The Dark Dragon fell silent after hearing Kagami’s words .

「What do you mean, Kagami-dono? What kind of problem could that ruthless attack have? 」

「The Dark Dragon kept attacking that same place even though I was no longer there, right? In other words … It is necessary for him to see his opponent in order to ensure that his magic hit his target . If I move without he noticing me while I hide in the dust cloud … Then he can’t hit me with that . Isn’t it?」

『Rather… I can directly target my opponent guiding me by the magical power they emanate . However, when the magic power of my opponent is low, this becomes somewhat complicated . Even so, thanks to that, I should have been able to deduce your position, even under that dust cloud』

「How unfortunate . Regrettably, it’s not like I have a low magical power, but actually I have absolutely nothing of magical power 」

『… Are you a Warrior? Impossible, your speed should be much higher than of the warriors』

「Well, didn’t I just prove it? I was able to get out of there without you noticing, isn’t it? 」

『That’s true』

The Dark Dragon said while smiling .

『However … I still don’t understand something . That attack … How did you survive the assault of that attack? Even if you managed to protect yourself from the magical heat rays, you should still have received the damage from the explosions … Even if you tried to escape, you should have been hit by one explosion at least in the place where you were 』

「Reach me? Oh, yes, they reach me 」

『Then how…?』

「Don’t you think that the scope of those explosions has expanded compared to the previous ones?」

When he said that, Menou remembered that the magnitude of the explosions of this time had been clearly greater than the previous ones, which is why he had believed that Kagami would not be saved .

「Did the Dark Dragon strengthen his attack?」

『No … I did exactly the same as the previous time . What did you do?』

「The moment I was hit by those rays, I noticed that something strange was happening . After blowing up the rays with my left hand, just before I extended my right hand to make que next one blow it up- … 」

While saying that, Kagami raised his left hand so that the Dark Dragon could see his without problems . Immediately afterwards, Kagami’s left hand began to shine with a faint bluish light, different from the light in which it was wrapped when using his charged blow .

「… -My hand got like this」

『What is that?』

「An opportunity for me, well, you can understand it when you throw a ray at me」

After hearing those words, the Dark Dragon fired a heat ray from one of the pale light spheres that was floating in front of Kagami . The heat ray that he shot goes directly to Kagami at an incredible speed-

『… !? 』

However, immediately after, he felt an explosion right next to his head .

『What? What did you do!?』

「I made it bounce . Also, to that heat ray … I add the force with which I hit it 」

It took him a while to understand what Kagami has just told him . Isn’t like he did not understand what it meant that he made it bounce . He had no trouble noticing the moment he returned his attack .

The issue is that Kagami clearly hadn’t been able to use that kind of power until now . If I had been able to do that, then he had used it before . In other words, that meant that Kagami had acquired that power in the middle of combat . Moreover, it was not some kind of technique or magic, but a skill .

『Was you able to grow even more during our combat and level up? Not only that, but you did it at the last moment? No, it’s even more than that … Did it grow enough to reach the hundredth level? … It’s a miracle . Oh, you are the owner of an incredible fortune 』

NT: Remember that everyone is supposed to acquire a new skill every 100 levels

「Do not get it wrong, my level has not gone up at all」

『What has not gone up? That is absurd, if it had not done so, then it would not have been able to acquire such a kind of power so suddenly … That irregular power is clearly the crystallization of the true potential of humanity . It’s definitely a skill! 』

「There is no doubt that it is a skill, but … My level has not gone up . It can not go up any more 」

Kagami said as he showed his status window to the Dark Dragon . At that moment, the Dark Dragon, who approached Kagami with incredible speed to see what was shown in his status window, looked in amazement at what was written on it .

『Le- … Level 999? No, it can not be … A VI-VILL-VILLAGER!? 』

NT: As always, if you find something weird, whatever, just tell me in the comments .
