Volume 1 - Ch 1.7
Kagami looked like he didnt care that he had lost the argument as he told the obvious lie to the Heros party with a bragging face, brimming with confidence. Krul cutely let out an unintentional laugh. If he was this desperate, it didnt matter whether the girl was a Demon or not.
Fufu..Ahahaha! I understand. Lets leave the topic of the horn alone. Even though there might be a different reason, I wont ask about it any more.
Kagami snickered to himself when he heard Kruls words.
With a heave-ho heave-ho, a mysterious festival attended by many Kagamis started in his mind while crying in his heart, This is the Power of my excuses!!!!!(Xant: He uses weird wordsimagine opening a stage curtain.)
However, the Holy Sword is a different matter.
Rex suddenly shouted seriously, immediately bringing Kagami back to reality.
Rex tolerated Kruls selfish remark, and after he put the issue of the Villagers abnormal abilities aside, the only thing remaining was the objective that he had come to this dungeon to fulfill.
What has your sister been doing here, in this room?
The girl did not answer the question that Rex threw at her.
What was the girls purpose in coming to this room? She definitely wouldnt talk about her own reasons, and even if she did, it was possible that she wouldnt be able to direct them to the location of the Holy Sword. She wouldnt even try to answer them.
The Holy Sword had already been missing when the girl arrived at this room.
Such a thing would normally have to be on the pedestalSince the Heros party appeared but didnt have the sword, there was nothing to explain its disappearance.

Kagami realized that the girls objective had definitely been to destroy the Holy Sword, but he didnt voice his thoughts.
I said that my sister got lost and ended up here by chance.
This isnt a place that you can find by accident! Even if it happened, theres no way that the Holy Sword would disappear at the same time!
But it did happen didnt it? Or rather, who cares if the Holy Sword has disappeared?
II am the Hero! The Chosen Human! The only one who is allowed to wield the Holy Sword!
Ehsorry. If youre talking about the sword that was stuck in here, I already found itand brought it back to town quite a while ago.
Kagami unintentionally apologized to Rex, who was desperately shouting Im a Hero!.
Everyone there turned and stared at Kagami when they heard his calm words.
Even though they had many things they wanted to ask, no words came out. Even the Demon girl was at a loss for words when she heard remarks that should never have come from a normal Villager.
You saidthe Holy Sword, that was the Royal Familys heirloom, was brought back?
Rex asked Kagami, trembling with fear.
Eh!? The Royal Family?It was THAT Royal Family? Crap! I took it back and sold it to merchants as fast as I could! Its probably being sold for a high price at a store right now.
S-sold?
Rex distantly heard those words and forgot to close his mouth.
Meanwhile, Kagami had remembered that he had sold the sword that used to be here for a high price and thought: So, it was a sword that was passed down within the Royal Family!, convincing himself.
Dont lie to me! Only those who have the Role of Hero are permitted to wield that Holy Sword, so it must have been sealed by an Ancient Sages magic! It would be impossible for you to carry it!
Ahcertainly, it was a bit heavy. I think it was about 800 Kilos. Still, I managed to hold it normally? I also pulled it out of the pedestal.
The atmosphere froze as each member of the party wondered how a human that could mention a weight of 800 Kilos could exist.
That storyis such bullshit! You Villagerthere isnt any reason for you to be able to hold it, is there!
It was certainly heavy. If I used it, it would have been the way I used a normal sword. Even if its probably too heavy to use, if I managed to pull it out, wouldnt it be possible for me to wield it? If you had tried, maybe you would have been able to pull it out as well.
What kind of idiotic shit are you
No no, hey now.
Kagami looked at Rex, who didnt believe anything he said, and judged that it would be faster for him to show them directly. He slightly lowered his waist and firmly grabbed the edge of the pedestal, looking like he was going to attempt to lift the pedestal with all of his strength.
Tina, Palna, Krul, and the female Demon all thought that it was absolutely impossible.
However, Rex, remembering the absurd way the Blue Devils Horn had been thrust into the pedestal earlier, broke out in a cold sweat as he thought that it might be possible.
A few seconds after Rex thought that, cracks began to appear on the ground.
Thatsimpossible.
Instantly after the cracks formed, they widened and split open, causing a screeching, echoing noise. After the earth shook and a huge bang resounded, Kagami was lifting the pedestal of the Holy Sword, as though he was the embodiment of the Earths wrath.
Dust and sand filled the air, and a dull sound resonated from the ground, as if its will had been torn away.
The soil scattered in front of Rex. Kagami, who was standing a bit further away, looked at Rex with a beaming smile.
Hey?
Kagami threw away the pedestal as he spoke, and it landed with a thud. After seeing this, everyone was speechless.
This normal Villager had done such an outrageous thing in a composed manner.
All because of a Villager. No Role should be capable of doing such a thing, yet the young Villager in front of them had shown them otherwise.
Fear shot through Rexs body, underneath his shock. Until now, whether people trained on their own or were familiar with fighting, he had thought that no other humans of his age would match his level.
Rex realized that there was no limit to excellence and his mind snapped. The person that stood before him was the embodiment of a monster.
L-Level?
Rex barely managed to squeeze the question out of his mouth.
999.
Kagami stopped teasing him and casually displayed his Status Window and his Role.
The displayed description clearly stated,
Role: Villager
Level: 999
Everyone else in the room froze, as if they had turned into statues.
