(TL:By Rafael)

He dodges a slash with a singular force, swinging from an arm that should only be made of bone, and accelerates as he spins past you, hitting you with his hatchet with all his strength. In response, Volgemut evades by shifting his upper body in a move that clearly ignores the range of motion of his joints, and then counters from his blind spot.

　

　He ducks and dodges several attacks that roar in front of him, as if he were about to shatter a huge rock, and tries with everything he has to be lethal. With each swing of his arm, blood flows and evaporates, bones and organs creak. Already, every muscle tissue in his body is torn and regenerated, twisted and reconnected.

　

　It's only natural that I would be overwhelmed if I had to use buffs to force up my body's physical abilities to the point where I could crack a stone floor with a single step, or generate enough power to shatter a wall with a swinging axe. The strength of my body is not up to par with my enhanced skills.

　

　This is all the price to pay for fighting and surviving this thing. However, if things continue as they are, I'm sure I'll be left with nothing.

　

　Even though it looks like we're on the same side at the moment, he's undead and not fatigued, while I'm breathing hard and already falling apart from the reckless reinforcement. On top of that, the time limit for buffing skills is approaching.

　

　In addition, ...... Volgemut seems to be more experienced in fighting than I thought. Thanks to the buffs, I was able to bring his speed and power to an even level, but he was able to read almost all of my slash trajectories mixed with feints, and he even used the high speed movement of the Shadow Step to aim a counter attack from his blind spot. It would be extremely difficult to defeat him in a short time.

　

　--If it is. It's going to be a big burden on my body, but let's cut one more card.

　

　I'll take a half step back from the current spacing and move to a random battle. The falchion, with its longer reach than the hatchet, will have the advantage in this situation, but I will focus on evasion.

　

　While paying attention to the strong attacks that can only be received with both hands, I input the magic circle with my left hand first, and while escaping to the blind spot, I start the random battle again. In the game, it was possible to continue the magic circle input within a second even if it was interrupted, and I've confirmed that this is also the case in this world.

　

　I'm not sure if you've noticed that the flow of magic power gradually begins to take the shape of a magic circle, but Volgemuth activates his one-handed sword skill, Savage Stripe, to prevent me from completing my skill input.

　

　Just before he activates it, he lowers his center of gravity and suddenly holds his weapon horizontally, making a sideways calm motion. It is possible to read the trajectory and attack range of "Savage Stripe" as long as you know the distance between the weapons. If you have a job as a Shadowwalker and you have four skills, you already know that you have this skill.

(I've seen that skill a thousand times!)

　

The tip of Falchion's sword exceeds the speed of sound due to his skill correction, making it impossible to see, but he knows the trajectory. I close the gap again and catch him with both hands just after he activates his skill. Sparks fly, but I succeed in crushing it there. In order to dodge the Savage Stripe, the standard method is to either fly or crouch, but with my current abilities, both of these methods would be disadvantageous, so I went on the receiving end.

　

　In the midst of the storm of slashes that continued, I gradually drew the magic circle while changing my position at a dizzying pace, and when it was complete, it glowed a pale green.

"Here we go!　　...... become a raging storm of 《Aerial》!

　

　This is the "Aerial" skill of the advanced "Sword Dancer" job. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea. However, it uses a lot of MP per unit of time, and with my current MP level, I can probably only hold it for 30 seconds.

　

　You can change your tactics from two-dimensional brawling to three-dimensional shifting up, down, left, right, back and forth. In Dun Ex, melee combat using the Aerial is my favorite you just have to make sure you don't get caught in the middle of the action.

　

　The point of view changes so rapidly that it's usually confusing to know which way is up or down, but that's not a problem because the foothold is flexible. The important thing is to keep your eyes on the target and keep your blind spot, and how to play with it.

　

　But the way he fights, cutting back vectors in the air, puts an unbelievable strain on his legs, and I'm afraid his legs will burst before he runs out of MP.

(Gosh, ...... that's hard ......, but the attack finally hit!

　

Starting with a blow from behind, Volgemut staggered as he was attacked one after another. The cacophony of metal scraping and clashing rang out, and sparks flew everywhere. Even the bones, protected by armor, were almost as strong as steel, and the steel hatchet that was attacking him was gradually being deformed.

　

　(I'm going to finish this in one fell swoop!) 

The slash becomes a constant line of drawing as he strikes wildly with all his strength, manually tracing and weaving the motions one by one. I'm not sure if it's a hand axe or something else, but I don't care if it's a distorted piece of iron.

"This is the end!《Agares Blade!》"

...... "Air Break."

　

　*...*...*...*...*

　

　-- Narumi Hanano point of view --

　

　Ever since I was little, I've always been protected by my Onii.

　

　When I suddenly collapsed at school, when I was bullied by a boy in the neighborhood, or when I was lost in the mountains.

　

　If I am only protected, I won't be able to be with my brother as he moves forward. I would not be able to do anything if I remained as I am now.

　

　That's why I worked hard to become stronger. I wanted to be strong enough to walk with my brother one day.

　

　I fixed my likes and dislikes of food, drank lots of milk, and studied hard.

　

　In the meantime. Onii announced that she was going to take the entrance exam for the adventurer school. Probably because of the influence of "that woman".

　

(TL: With those last words you have my respect)

　The adventurer's school is said to have a very high deviation score, and the ratio of entrance exams is over a hundred times. And yet, I passed the exam ...... with flying colors. I wanted to congratulate him proudly, but I also felt impatient that he was so far away from me.

　

　Well then. I'll take the adventurer's school too. I'll definitely pass and chase after you.

　

　From that day on, I began to push myself to study and train hard. I researched and studied a lot about dungeons and the top clan called the Colors. I also decided to attend a martial arts school.

　

　The more I researched and the more I studied, the more the concept of an adventurer that my dad had told me about expanded endlessly. I realized how small my worldview had been.

　

　I longed to be an adventurer more and more, and threw myself into my studies and training.

　

　Onii was accepted to the adventurer school as a matter of course. He was going to go to a dungeon as soon as he entered the school. I asked him to take me along, but he said yes

　

　I'm looking forward to it!　　I've been eating a lot and running a lot, and I think my body has gotten stronger ....... I'm sure I won't slow him down.

　

　It was my first time in a dungeon. I had heard that it was scary and dangerous, but it was so easy that it was out of my mind. It was called "power leveling," and I quickly reached level 7. As I leveled up, I felt an incredible surge of power like a famous adventurer. I thought to myself, "If I do this, I might be able to become stronger than Onii.

　

　I can't stop thinking about the dungeon when I'm at home or at school. Now that I have new armor, I can't wait to dive into the dungeon!　　Golem hunting is next!

　

　But all of a sudden, a demon king appears, spreading despair.

　

Just by looking at him, you feel as if your heart is being grabbed and squeezed, an "enemy" that takes the form of fear. The pitch-black "aura" that billowed out was just like the Demon King. My senses told me that I would never win against this.

　

　For the first time, I prepared for death.

　

　But what's more terrifying than dying is the fact that even the onii-sama will die because of me.

　

　If I don't get my leg cut off. If only I hadn't said anything about teaming up with those three before that. Regret washed over me like a tsunami.

　

　I was scared, and my voice trembled, but I was able to say, "Run."

　

　But now I'm going to die. I was very, very sad to give up on ...... living.

　

　That's what I was thinking. What is it that I'm seeing now?

　

　When Onii casts a mysterious spell, he suddenly becomes a "frightening hero."

　

　The muscles and blood vessels swelled and floated. The blood flowing and the reddish-black "aura" on his body, it was obvious that he was carrying an unreasonable amount of power. I've never seen magic like that in any video or book.

　

　You say not to worry, but it doesn't look like you're going to be okay.

　

　After a few seconds of staring at each other, the battle began immediately.

　

　A storm of blood and darkness raged in all directions, destroying the entire corridor of the castle and turning it into rubble.

　

　There was no doubt in my mind that this enemy was stronger than any monster I had ever seen. It was so different from the "ultimate monster" Rich that I wondered which was stronger.

　

　The guy fighting it is also from another dimension.

　

　It's a highly advanced melee battle where they switch positions at a dizzying pace. They move so fast that it is difficult to follow everything with the eyes. Even so, you can somehow tell that they are not just slashing at each other, but that they are fighting with their gazes, the way they lean, the way they close and close the gap, and the countless falsehoods and realities in the movements of their weapons.

　

　In order to become stronger, I went to a martial arts school and learned the basics. I've been watching a lot of TV and reading books about the magic and fighting techniques used by adventurers on the front lines, and I've been studying them. I was amazed at the high level of fighting that was going on in front of my eyes. I've never seen anything like this, not even in the top clan videos. It was a battle that surpassed in every way the best battle scenes I had ever imagined.

　

　It had only been a minute since the start of the battle, and already there were huge holes in the corridors and ceiling. Dust was flying around, visibility was poor, and even on the unstable scaffolding, they were still moving around, echoing the earth as they continued the battle.

　

　Weapon skills of tremendous power that cut through space in the middle of a series of blows are flying around. As soon as I thought Onii was about to be pushed to the limit, he accelerated with a new magic and flew up, down, left and right like a rubber ball with an explosive sound.

　

　When the first blow finally came in with a heavy metallic sound, the clean hits were successful one after another. In the end, the first blow went in with a heavy metallic sound, and one clean hit after another succeeded.

　

　The enemy, while sparking and being hit, amplified its jet-black "aura" and stared at the sky. It's trying to match its weapon skills to the onii's attack!

"Onii! Win!"

　

　This will settle it. I can't help but shout.

"'This is the end ah!　　《Agares Blade》!"

"《Air Break》"

　

　The two skills collide and there is a flash of light and a roar. You can't see what happened due to the evaporation phenomenon and the dust cloud raised by the blast. ......

　

　As the light gradually subsides,......, the ground, which was originally a stone floor, has been gouged vertically to form a deep gash. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

　

　When I looked deep into the gouged ground, I saw that the enemies that had been shattered into pieces had just turned into magic stones. It was a beautiful magical stone, the size of which I had never seen before.

　

　As I tried to find out where Onii was, I was suddenly struck by a terrible dizziness and my chest began to ache.

"Gosh ...... ugh ...... I ...... don't do anything to level up."

　

　It's not just a matter of one or two levels, from the way I feel, it's a much stronger feeling of level up sickness and omnipotence than when I was power leveling on the fifth floor and my level went up all at once. In addition, I also got "Skill Frame +3".

　

　Oni was lying face down on the ground in a "changed appearance".

　Although the tip of the upper arm of the right arm has disappeared, the recovery skill seems to be activated, and the bone slowly grows while making a swooshing noise, and muscle tissue is spun around it. What the hell is this skill? The skills he knows shouldn't do this extraordinary recovery.

　Perhaps the level of Oni has improved significantly, and the effect of the regeneration skill is accelerating and working.

"... Onii, are you okay?"

"Hahhh ... it's okay .... huh ... my legs are crazy ... maybe it's better to go to the 10th floor than to go home once ... huh ... I'm out of MP ..."

　While saying that, Oni slowly turned over and lay on his back, closing his eyes and adjusting her breathing.

　I have a lot to ask, but I think it's better to leave it alone for now.

"... Thank you ... Onii"

TL Note- Well that was good and if I am right which I  belive I am then this was Hanano's first PoV
