You guys, have you noticed…?

Nanami-chan might be joining here, you know…?

Won’t she be killed? Nanami-chan…

Nanami-chan is a normal frail high school student…

-412: Anonymous from Earth

Won’t Jeanne protect her?

-413: Anonymous from Earth

By the time Nanami-tan reunites with Hikaru, I feel like it will be when Hikaru’s body and heart has already been thoroughly stolen away.

-416: Anonymous from Earth

So Nanami-chan is going to be seeing Hikaru with an ahegao and doing double peace signs huh…

-417: Anonymous from Earth

There’s the matter of Ozawa as well, so I want Nanami-chan to reunite with Hikaru though.

Wonder what would happen…

Whichever the case, it will be a thorny path…

The death penalty totally won’t be making it in time. That’s the limit to the power of the law.

No, even if he gets executed, there would be no point.

Hikaru has summoned a Dark Knight. Is he really going to stop them?

-424: Anonymous from Earth

Isn’t it just in case something happens?

Or more like, you can hide the Dark Knight-kun in your shadow, huh…

That’s quite the handy ability…

-428: Anonymous from Earth

When it gets to this level, Dark Spirit Abilities are crazy strong.

There will be a lot of people who will be taking darkness in the new Chosen.

-430: Anonymous from Earth

There’s barely any Great Dark Spirits, so you have to get it with Points.

It is hard to obtain as a result of that.

If it is the others, you can just make a contract at the places of the Great Spirits, and it will only cost a few silver coins.

10 Points are necessary if it is from the Status Board.

10 Points is big.

-433: Anonymous from Earth

There’s only two places in the world where there’s Dark Great Churches…

One of those places has the twins who have ruled over it with the Charm cheat.

The other place is in the new continent, the Alaura Continent.

Are they seriously going to have a duel?

They seriously are amazonneses.

Jeanne-chan managed to take even an attack of Rifreya-chan.

This is a battle between two *kaijuu*. [Giant monsters like Godzilla]

The intense clash of metal and metal! I have not seen something like this anywhere but in anime!

There’s a different type of cool from fighting a monster.

Her title of Iron Jeanne Collet isn’t just for show.

Rifreya-chan is swinging her sword at incredible speed.

A normal person would die from getting hit by it even if they had armor.

She must be getting impatient too here.

She probably thought her opponent would surrender immediately.

Did her mother just say “That girl is still green”?

The mom is also a muscle-brain…

Is she a resident of the bloodbath country?

I see! That flower worked on the chaotic magic disease?!

What about the panacea?

-485: Anonymous from Earth

Wait, that flower really worked?

Isn’t it simply because they used the panacea at the same time?

-488: Anonymous from Earth

In that world, it mostly goes with the name chaotic magic disease.

At the very least, in Ringpill and Roshesill.

We have to confirm whether the chaotic magic disease and the spirit bone connection paralysis are the same thing.

The messages are still frozen, so it is hard to confirm.

‘Then, the little sister Flora-chan’ -if that had been his answer, what would have happened with Rifreya-sama, I wonder.

She would go mad.

The mother is also pushy.

So Rifreya-chan got that from her mother, huh.

-510: Anonymous from Earth

She is one dangerous mom, but Hikaru’s mom is also dangerous, so it is a draw.

No, in that world, it is the parents who decide what to do with their children. Not that long ago, it was the same on Earth.

Free love is actually a pretty new concept.

So their clash is on equal grounds?

If it is the same in terms of power, who is the one with more growth prospects?

Both are the same.

Rifreya-sama doesn’t have the God Gifts, so she only has her levels.

If I had to choose between both, I would say Jeanne with the lower level has the higher prospects here.

-665: Anonymous from Earth

It is a line from a famous manga ]] “It is way too lonely alone”.

-672: Anonymous from Earth

Hikaru and Jeanne have both taken aging resistance.

They can’t live on the same time as Rifreya and the other native people.

That’s why ‘It is way too lonely alone’.

-674: Anonymous from Earth

It is also in part because Jeanne herself is lonely, but it is exactly because there’s no doubt Hikaru would also be lonely that she feels like she must be by his side.

Jeanne-chan is seriously a good woman.

-675: Anonymous from Earth

But, with this, the party has powered up quite a lot.

Won’t they be able to clear the 4th Floor with this?

-680: Anonymous from Earth

Hikaru somewhat managed the 4th Floor alone after all.

The 5th Floor may be a challenge, but I would say they would pose a close challenge.

Jeanne would advise to advance carefully though.

It seems like Jeanne-chan and Rifreya-sama could get along. I am relieved to see that.

They are both amusing women after all.

Jeanne-chan has declared that she has no possessive desire after all.

But she did say she had no intention of letting go of him, so you could say she is slowly evolving into a yandere.

I am truly happy that her little sister was cured.

It means that the shackles of Rifreya-chan are completely off now.

It did sound like quite the heavy situation after all.

A Chosen somewhere said that the chaotic magic disease is an incurable disease though.

I think they explained that there’s no way to cure it aside from using a panacea.

So Rifreya-chan has become a reserve unit of the templars.

She is free aside from the times when she is called in for defense. That’s great.

In a sense, Jeanne is the one enjoying the isekai the most.

Raising her player skill enough to conquer anything as a level 1, she says. That’s not a way of thinking that shows up often.

You can understand if you watch Hikaru, but if you lack way too much strength, your attacks itself don’t even work against enemies that are way too strong.

No matter how many ultimate moves you have, you can’t win against an enemy you can’t even deal 1 damage to.

All warm, lol.

-940: Anonymous from Earth

That’s way too of a liberal translation.

Having butterflies in your stomach means something like ‘when I am with you, my heart beats faster and I get fiddly’.

Words that mean the heartbeats of love.

It is like the fulfilling sensation of being by the side of the person you love.

Hikaru would most likely understand ‘je t’aime’ [I love you], so she is probably being impish here.

That means she loves him!

Level 3 aging resistance halves the aging speed.

Jeanne is 17, Rifreya is 16; in that case, Rifreya would pass her in 4 years.

From there on, Rifreya will be growing older at twice the speed.

But they plan on continuing the dungeon exploration for 5 years, right?

At the very least, they will be together until then, and won’t they stay together after that too?

It is okay, just embrace bigamy.

This is not Earth, so there’s no need to think too deeply about it.

-989: Anonymous from Earth

Jeanne knows.

The fact that the relationships between men and women are fleeting.

It is probably a plan to deepen their relationship like friends, and then reconcile all at once with the same aging speed.

It could even turn into enjoying the sweet and sour moments together.
