Chapter 2 (1/2)
Chapter 2: Ice Magic
TN: Really interesting chapter, lots of cool sneak peeks at e’ll get to see in the futureEnjoy!
I sprinted across the grasslands
I had with ht vision potion
There are some monsters in Vizend Cave that are poisonous, but they’re super weak
The real question is, will the night vision potion last long enough for me to make it to the deepest parts of the cave?
I have a torch, but with only one hand free I’d be easy prey for any monsters
(Regza and Count Tere to make me look like an idiot!)
I had left the town in anger, and I still wasn’t feeling any better about it
I wonder if Miria knows about this?
Deep down in her heart, does she actually think I’m an idiot too?
Is her s face only a mask for her scorn of me?
[Pigigi!]
A hts
About 20 meters in front of
[Is this a joke…?!]
Slowing down a bit, I pulled out my rapier
I carefully approached the monster
My rival was the weakestall the creatures in this world
Holding th into my weapon
The crest engraved on the hilt of the rapier glowed ain
[damnit! damnit! damnit!]
Why is it that I can’t use [skills]?
In this world, people are supposed to be born with some [ability]
And it’s not just people
Animals and monsters, too
Being lesser than even those, I’ rock— (TN: I feel so sorry for him lol)
[Pigi! Pigigii–!]
At the center of the slime, a red crest appeared
Even this trash-tier monster can use skills, and yet I—
[God damn IT!!!!]
I thrust out ht
There was no [skill] involved, it was th
My rapier was still lodged in the slime’s jelly-like body
[This… this trashto me, and yet…!]
Pressing my foot on its body, I pulled out my rapier
The crest on the sliain as it prepared another [skill]
I skewered the slime with my rapier over and over
[Piii…! Pigi!!]
[DIE! DIE! TRAsh!+]
My body was covered in a light green liquid, but I didn’t stop striking
Over and over
Face to face with the shrieking slime, I sliced at it ruthlessly
[Hah Hah Hah da If anyone has a suggestion on how else I should translate it, feel free to comment!)
I kicked the sli
Suddenly I felt a pain inaway the slime on my body, saw some blood
Sighing, I took out a recovery potion and poured it on my shoulder
The wound slowly disappeared, and the pain also lessened
[Why… can I not do any skills…?]
I really hated myself
When I was s able to use any [skills]
But, that was definitely just because I was in a Count’s family
A family as powerful as the faard, my father
But now, that name has been lost
Because by the end of the war, I was the only reard family which was all but eradicated from this world
[…Alright, I need keep going]
It’s inevitable that I’d feel this angry
Having fallen to the pits, the only thing I could do was cli into soht now]
Someday, I’ll definitely triumph
All those guys who’ve beenfun of me, I’ll definitely—
From there onwards, I encountered all kinds of weak monsters
I was already running out of recovery potions
At this point, my only choice was to collect raw materials on the spot and make some potions on my own
Although, this region is filled with all the materials I need to make potions
So, I thoughtlessly used potion after potion to recover my wounds
Ahead ofto the cave
Vizend Cave
In the depths of this cave, I would defeat the [Sleepy Rabbit], a rabbit-type ana for the name Sleepy Rabbit wasn’t provided until now so I was translating it differently, but I’ll use this name from now on]
A hout hout the world
Having collected all the recovery potion ht-vision potion and headed towards the cave’s entrance
It was dead silent inside the gloomy cave
Thanks to h limited to black and white vision, the details of the interior of the cave
I quietly moved towards the deepest part of the cave
(Interesting… Why are there no monsters anywhere?)
I knew that there were supposed to be several types of monsters within Vizend Cave
Although they’re all weaklings, many of them have a troublesome poison effect
I had brought antidotes just for dealing with that, so what the heck was going on here?
Without encountering a singlethe way, I arrived at the deepest part of the cave
Feeling a sense of unease, I carefully surveyed the area froe
(…Ah, over there)
I saw the Sleepy Rabbit in the corner
The loudly snoring Sleepy Rabbit
Its weakness is the back of its ears which have very good hearing
If I thrust h that, it’d be over in one blow
Watching my footsteps, I cautiously took out my rapier
shi+t–!
Suddenly, for so up
I got goosebuhout my body
What the heck is this?
I looked down at my feet
With only
Is that, blood–?
Timidly, I turned around
I could sense the presence of some monster that I couldn’t see
Cho
Was that a monster normally found in this cave?
[Ah… ah…]
Unable to hold in my fear, I let out a squeak
Withspider-shaped
What the hell was that?
There wasn’t even any gossip about this kind of uild–
