Aim the Deepest Part of the Different World Labyrinth (WN) Vol 1 Chapter 2

The cold blade pa.s.sed through my thigh, making it burn with a blazing heat .

[U, uaa!]

I cry out as I fall on my rear, understanding I’ve been sliced by a sword .

“A Solo in our trade! Everybody, fall back . Let’s leave the monster to him!”

(TLN:not sure here it’s lit . To blame another, but I’m taking it as let him deal with it . )

The man leading gave an order to the others nearby .

I wasn’t able to understand what he said . I did not want to .

The woman with the can looked at me as she pa.s.sed, saying nothing .

The man who was blown away along with the rest of the people gave me a chilly look, as they walked past me in silence .

In the end, following them, the huge wolf appeared before my eyes —

[Ua, aaaaaaaaaaaah!!]

In terror, I jumped to the side .

A sharp pain runs through the cut in my thigh, so I fall awkwardly .

Meanwhile the other people reach a safe area .

So the wolf turn towards me who is nearest .

My thoughts race . Various ill feelings sweep over me . I recall my life up until this moment .

And then —

— Skill [???] activated itself .

Mentality will stabilize in exchange for some feelings .

Confusion was corrected by +1 . 00 —

(TLN:I thought this meant Confusion reduced by 100%, or Confusion Resistance was increased to 100% . Chapter 3 seems to indicates this is not necessarily/exactly the case)

Some sort of [Display] floats in my field of view . This isn’t the time, I didn’t intend to try and understand it .

However, together with the [Display], my emotions have cooled down .

My rus.h.i.+ng thoughts have calmed, and my ill feelings have vanished, since it’s like this I am able to concentrate .

My left leg is cut so I don’t use it, so I can only stand on my right one .

At the same time the wolf attacks me .

The wolf pounces, and I jump vertically backwards .

However, it’s not enough, the wolf is overwhelmingly fast . Even the brawny man from the earlier battle wasn’t able to follow the wolf’s speed . As it pa.s.ses, the upper part of my right arm got cut by it’s nail .

Then, I heard the people who reached a safe area speak .

[Alright, right here! Attack! Block the path!!]

I got a chill .

Not only was the wolf a threat, those people were my enemy too .

They made me bait, as they ran away; but even that wasn’t enough –!

Following the chill, I glanced behind me, roaring flames covering the entire corridor were approaching me .

The huge wolf also noticed it . But it was too late . The huge wolf had jumped up trying to bite me to death so it was unable to avoid it .

Naturally, I was also too slow .

d.a.m.n, those guys! I too, will get burnt!

I curse in my mind .

The roaring flame explodes around us, so as to burn everything .

As it happened I jumped back as far as I could, covering my head with both hands .

The wind from the explosion struck my back, and blew me away .

The flames scorched my body . I could feel my whole body burning .

A maddening amount of pain rushed to my brain .

Through the pain, I maintain a thought .

I sustain my willpower, with frustration and hatred .

After being blown away I am flung against the ground, opening my eyes slowly I look around .

The flames which had filled the entire corridor vanished in an instant … like magic .

However, in the direction that the people had escaped there was a beautiful wall of fire .

[Wh, wh, a~~~]

That, was that their aim .

I wasn’t able to get the words out of my burnt throat .

And now the path was blocked by a wall of fire, I reflect on that for a moment before slowly realizing that only the huge wolf and I remain .

The wolf also recovered and stood up at the same time I did .

(TLN:it’s more like standing up after being knocked down, then it’s wounds healing . )

However, it seemed to have been showered with more flames than me .

Disregarding the size of it’s body, in the end because it sprang, leaping over me, it probably received more damage than I did .

It’s weakened .

The wolf’s breathing was rough, and it seemed to be staggering .

But, it’s eyes shone brightly .

It’s will to fight hadn’t withered at all, It growled as if to say [Even wounded a wolf is fearsome] and stepped towards me .

Like the wolf I resolved myself .

I had been blown to a good location . It seemed the wolf couldn’t see it, but behind was where the large sword that the warrior used during the earlier battle fell . If I can use it in a surprise attack, however small there is a chance of victory .

Having decided that, I immediately turned around, running at full strength .

As I turned around, I caught a glimpse of the wolf leaping towards me,

A sharp pain ran along my left thigh, and an alarm echoed loudly in my mind .

Nevertheless I ran . The feeling of my leg faded as I forced myself to tread the ground .

I can’t grasp the timing . I’m unable to predict the wolf’s approach .

I picked up the large sword, promptly, I turned around swing the large sword down .

The large sword was so heavy I wasn’t able to support it even with both hands . Nevertheless I bet everything and followed through with all my strength at once .

With a raw dull sound, I saw that the large sword was buried in the wolf’s neck .

[Yatta —-a, a, gua!]

(TLN:Yatta = I did it, the rest SFX I don’t know but think are like panting after exerting oneself . Left it as Yatta because it fits the scene better than I did it or Did it, and Yatta should be common enough that most will have some understanding of it . )

The large sword gouged into it’s neck, the wolf leaned into my body .

I was able to barely avoid it’s teeth and nails, as the 2 meter bulk lean .

An incredible weight is applied to me, my stomach contents flow backwards spewing out of my mouth .

Even though it’s neck was torn open, the wolf still tried to kill and eat me .

Opening it’s mouth, the wolf tried to swallow my head . My fading awareness returns, and I dodge by twisting my body to it’s limit . Doing so had even caused the large sword to gouge further in .

[U, Uooaaaaaaaa!!]

I used both hands intending to drive away the 2 meter bulk .

And, feeling a slight gap, I slip out from under the wolf .

Feeling the large sword not gouge any more, I let it go I take some distance .

The wolf did not follow me .

No, I’m going to do it . However my body won’t move .

The wolf has lost a lot of blood, it’s body was burned, it’s appearance was ragged . But I couldn’t be careless .

But, looking carefully I could see the turn of events .

One of the wolf’s eyes was burnt, it seems unable to see .

An arrow is pierced deeply into it’s hind leg, it’s limping .

The large sword has probably reached it’s windpipe . It made a whistling sound as it breathed .

It was clearly in worse condition that I was .

[–aaa, You … …]

The words spill out own their own .

The wolf advances towards me while dragging the large sword .

As a precaution, I move to the blind spot created by it’s scorched eye, to avoid being seen .

Not long after, the wolf collapsed .

Then, the wolf disappeared as it was covered in a faint emerald green s.h.i.+mmer of light .

With a clanging sound, the large sword and the arrow fall to the ground .

[Eh … … ?]

Yes, it vanished .

The corpse did not remain, it vanished in a light like an illusion .

I was stunned at the sight .

After the wolf disappeared, a glittering green stone remained .

— The t.i.tle [s.h.i.+nsui of the beginning] has been acquired .

Strength has been adjusted by +0 . 1 —

(TLN:『深翠の始まり』is the t.i.tle, best MT was s.h.i.+nsui of the beginning . )

-Day one
