Level 99 Villainous Daughter Volume 3 - Ch 20

It is the morning after Yumiela #2 appears.

She is sitting at the breakfast table with her usual expression. Shes too comfortable with it. Had she been able to use her abilities to the fullest, the evil god wouldnt have driven her to the point of destroying the world.

Then, #2 asked in an inviting tone as if inviting to do so shopping.

Do you have ti later?

I do, but why?

Just wait for a little.

What is it? Since everything is undecided about what she will do from now on, it is nice to be asked for advice by #2. But I dont think it would be that serious from the atmosphere.

Where do you want to talk? Should Patrick be there, too?

Right Perhaps we should go sowhere a little bigger. That guy might want to be there.

A bigger place? Is she going to talk about sothing that could lead to a fistfight? Theres not much to predict. One of us will get involved in the end.

I guess we could talk in the garden.

We went outside as soon as we finished breakfast, keeping Eleanora at ho since she wanted to join us.

Ryuu didnt seem to have returned from his morning walk and was nowhere to be seen. Im sure hell be back soon.

We have chairs and a table in our large garden that we dont use often. They look like sothing you would find on the coffee shop terrace.

Do you want to sit down and talk?

No. Ill have to stand up shortly, anyway.

Whoa? Are we going to fight?

We were standing a certain distance away from each other. Oddly enough, were in the sa position in our first encounter.

Yosh, lets hear what #2 has to say, shall we? And depending on the subject, it could lead to an instant brawl.

You know why I ca to this world, dont you?

I know.

I would like to reiterate that I ca to this world because you have sothing I needed.

Mhmm.

Im going to finish that business.

I gulped.

Her goal is to kill and release her level cap. I knew sowhere in my mind, but it seems that fighting #2 is inevitable.

I thought we still had ti and would happen a little later.

Theres nothing good that can co from taking it slow?

That may be true, but.

It pains to fight her. #2 and I had several argunts and fistfights yesterday, and she even left with no clothes to wear. I can fight. Im getting motivated.

Considering the damage to the surrounding area, using the garden would not be good. But, lets go.

Lets get started.

Um, ano

Victory goes to whoever makes the first move. #2 was talking, but I didnt care enough to listen.

Kicking off the ground, I accelerated rapidly, closing in on #2.

Shall we defeat that nasty evil god?

Eh?

When she had finished her line, my fist was already pounding into her cheek.

Caught off guard, #2 throws the Yumiela Punch no, the Yumiela #2 Punch wrong, a rider kick is a rider kick, and so is a Yumiela Punch. She took the punch and was blown away.

I dont care what #2 said, though. I was ready to chase her, but Patrick stopped .

Oi, Yumiela! Stop!

Dont stop , Patrick! Were destined to fight! There is no other choice!

No, thats not it. She said sothing, didnt she?

I knew it?

Could it be that I was wrong about the battle developnt? But #2 said she was going to finish her business Its puzzling. The one who can clear this situation is now standing up, slightly wobbly.

It might be better if I kill you first, easy target.

If you dont intend to do that, I dont see the point in fighting.

Im not sure what youre talking about when you are the one who initiates it.

Yumiela #2 says and points her hand at .

In an instant, dense dark magic begins to overflow. Ah, this must be it.

Black Hole.

Most of my body was enveloped in a jet black sphere.

Next, my body will disappear along with the black sphere if I dont move.

There are two phases to the attack: the sphere appears before it finally disappears. Though it may be a split second, there is a ti lag between the start and completion of the attack.

The point is, you have the ti to avoid the attack after youve seen it.

Its dangerous.

Kicking off the ground, I jumped into the air and twisted my body to escape the black holes range.

It startled . It was easy enough to avoid, but to be shot with instant death magic was terrible for my heart.

Eh how co youre still alive?

Huh? I just dodge your attack normally.

You could normally avoid them? You

Her words are interrupted mid-sentence.

Patrick jumped out and put his sword to #2s neck.

Dont move. If I sense any magical activity, Ill cut you off.

Eh? Patrick? Why are you suddenly so angry? Youve been the one stopping from my rage all this ti.

Im pretty sure Yumiela was almost killed just now.

Patrick is exaggerating when he says that I almost got killed. It would have been easy for to avoid that.

Dont worry about . Patrick could have avoided it, too, couldnt you?

Black Hole is impossible to avoid. There is no way you could dodge it because you cant predict its range.

Pay attention and dodge when the ti is right.

Thats exactly sothing you cant do.

Huh, really? Are you telling that Yumiela #2 is seriously trying to kill ?

No way. If that Black Hole had hit , I wouldnt be dead.

My head was out of the black holes range, right? As long as my head is safe, I think we could regenerate everything with recovery magic. Not that Ive ever tried it.

Can you even do magic with just your head?

Its hard to say without experinting. Ive been wearing a protective amulet for a long ti, so I shouldnt die just yet.

Why am I defending #2? Arguing with Prosecutor Patrick over whether or not there was an intent to kill is too futile.

The defendant, Yumiela #2, opens her mouth.

I used my magic intending to kill you.

She confessed even though I tried my best to defend her.

Hmm, theres no way I will die from sothing like that. Is #2-chan at an age where she wants to act naughty?

Sohow the two of them got into a tense situation, and I had to intervene. This is a very unusual situation for to be in.

To make him lower the sword, I roughly grip the easy-to-grasp part of the blade.

Put it down. You cant cut with this thing.

Oi, if you grab it, you cant cut it.

He looked at the sword and said the sword had a good quality. For , a sword or a cudgel have the sa strength, and I dont necessarily care if its not sharp as long as its strong. Cheer up.

However, it was strange that Yumiela #2 was told not to move, and she was standing still in an upright position.

Why didnt you move?

I thought Id get cut if I moved, so I stayed put.

You said your body doesnt get cut off easily.

Thats just you.

What? I was betrayed by soone who has the sa Yumiela defense.

Right. Was it a kill or be killed situation, or was it just an ergency? Of all people, I didnt realize it.

Since I was the one who initiated the fight, lets hear more about what Yumiela #2 was talking about.

Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding. You were about to say sothing, but.

Where should I start? Judging by your reactions, it seems that you misunderstand my purpose.

Arent you trying to defeat to unlock the level cap?

Thats what I was going to do just now. Its a ans to an end, not an end itself.

What do you an? Didnt you say I was the one you wanted in the first place?

Yeah. Im here to see you.

Huh, is that so?

#2 said that she ca to this world for , but she never said anything about defeating .

What was her purpose in coming across the world to see ? It cannot be for so trivial reason that she wanted to see her parallel world self.

After a long pause, Yumiela #2 told her true purpose.

I was about to say this earlier my purpose of coming to this world was to slay that evil god. My current self is no match for the evil god. I was debating whether to beat you and get stronger or ask for your help, but the way you avoided my Black Hole attack I doubt Ill be able to beat you.

The conversation is taking a weird turn again. What evil god? No, more importantly

Why dont you tell sothing as important as that before you begin to act?

I thought you knew.

How would I know?

Because you said it yourself! That is why I didnt tell you because I thought youd know what was going on.

Huh #2 is a terrible communicator. That must give people a wrong impression of her.

So, she wants the strength to defeat the evil god. Evil god? I have an idea of what this nasty evil god looks like. He should be still spying on us from the shadows, so I called him out.

Remn, are you there?

Im not the evil god shes talking about, okay?

After a short pause, a black-haired boy appears from my shadow.

Remn, the God of Darkness, denies the allegation, but Ill ask #2 for confirmation just in case.

He isnt the one you ntion, is he?

He is not the evil god, but part of the resistance.

Remn is quite nasty, and hes shady.

The evil god is even nastier and shadier.

The evil god must be sothing else if they can surpass Remn. I dont want to et them.

Ooh, I get it. Remn in the parallel universe had been defeated by Yumiela #2. There was no way he was the formidable evil god. Im sorry I doubted you.

After erging from the shadows but still too wary of #2, Remn hid behind my back.

Huh? If Remn was part of the resistance, then who is his opposition?

I dont even know their na. The sa one said they were here to stop but didnt even show any fighting signs. They had white hair.

White hair? Can they let out a beam of light from their forehead?

Ha? What are you talking about?

What? I thought she was talking about Sanon?

I dont think shes part of the non-resistance. Strangely, a beam of light ca out of her forehead.

Oh, if shes part of the non-resistance, then no beam would be coming out?

Remn opened his mouth when I was fed up with the evil god and a new gods involvent.

That non-resistance god is known as Sanon.

Ohh, Sanonisms god? Co on, tell their na.

It shoots a light beam from its forehead, though. If you get hit, youre in danger.

Even you?!

Why didnt Sanon fight her?

She turned to face Remn, who had refused her offer to form an alliance with her in the parallel universe. He shakes his head and says,

Whatever. Why dont you ask Sanon?

Can I?

This is getting off-topic.

Rather than the already done battle between #2 and gods, now its against the evil god.

What do you an by evil god? What do they look like?

I dont know.

You dont know?

Its appearance is blurred, or perhaps its visible but unrecognizable.

Do they really exist? Could it be #2s hallucination?

She must have noticed my doubtful glance because she quickly spoke about the evil god.

The first ti I t the evil god was after the prince had defeated the demon king. That was when I made up my mind to destroy the human race. He told I needed to get stronger or Id die.

Did they give you any powers?

I didnt get anything. They just taught how to level up more efficiently.

How?! Im curious.

What kind of leveling thod was taught by God? This knowledge may be useless to , but Id like to hear it for future references.

Like, killing all the dungeon bosses by yourself there are so many other crazy ways to do that.

Isnt that normal?

The evil god was just showing how you do it. Haa I thought the person who ca up with the idea was crazy when I first heard about it, but I was right.

Soone who cos up with the idea to destroy the world had no right calling crazy.

Anyone would have thought so. Generally speaking, its always better to go alone, where you can get all the EXP you need, rather than with multiple people with shared EXP.

Everyone can co up with other ways to level up. Its just that no one does it for so reason.

I guess the evil god is real. There is no way for her to know my way of leveling up by herself.

Ah, did the evil god power allow you to travel to another parallel universe?

Yes. The evil gods goal is to get a strong pawn. They told to defeat you to raise my level cap.

Hmm. An evil god. I believe this is the sa evil god that Remn talked about who is working behind the scenes.

An entity that holds a higher rank than Remn and Sanon, who manages many parallel worlds and is not bound by the level cap. Moving from one world to another would be an easy task.

With the information provided by the evil god, #2 beca stronger than the other Yumiela and drove the world to destruction. And she ca to this world to beco even stronger.

This is why she could defeat Alicia and the others, unlike the other Yumiela. How did she manage to move between worlds in a way that not even Remn could? What was unknown finally ca to light.

Patrick opens his mouth as I try to sort through the information in my head.

But youre not going to defeat Yumiela, are you?

I refuse to be the evil gods lackey.

Will the evil god allow that?

They wont let . Thats why Im begging you to help .

I looked at #2s head, which didnt seem to drop slightly, and thought.

Hypothetically, I could work with her to defeat the evil god, and then what? Her world will not return to normal, nor will I benefit from it.

There was no reason for to fight. Im willing to help #2 if thats what shes doing to relieve her grievances. I have no obligation to go along with her, though.

What if I say Im not willing to help?

You cant do that.

Why?

That nasty evil god is listening to our conversation, you know? Now that they realized theyd been betrayed, theyre going to try and deal with , arent they? And you could use that opportunity to deal with that annoying little pest.

Dont drag into this!

Putting aside the fact that the evil god has a reputation for being difficult to deal with, it seems Ive been dragged into a situation where I have to fight. But #2 is still a bad guy.

The evil god does not care if the world is ruined, right? Would it not be better if you beat them?

So, theyre the ones who ruin the world.

Thats not good. This is the first ti I will fight an opponent who out-leveled .

I cannot even imagine how strong the evil god is. While they may be over level 99, 200 and 2000 are entirely different.

We need to analyze our opponents strength first. I asked Yumiela #2.

How strong is the evil god? Just give an estimation.

I dont know. I have never seen them fight. They seed to be reluctant to exert themselves.

Wow. Thank you for the useless information.

Regardless of how much power Im willing to spare, I will co with all my might when it cos to cleaning up traitors.

Leaving the useless #2 alone, I cast a glance at Remn.

Do you understand, Remn?

No matter how strong Onee-san is, youll never be a match for them. And as long as the level cap binds you, youll never be able to beat them. This world might as well be over. Ahahaha.

A dry chuckle escaped Remns lips, I examined his face, and his eyes were dead. He may be the God of Darkness, but Im sure he hasnt lost the light in his eyes this much. Are we in that much peril?

We have too little information about the evil god. Since we are not well situated or equipped, I suggest to #2 that we avoid a battle right now.

Maybe we should hold off a little? Not that Im afraid of losing or anything. Im stronger than you.

We cant. Havent I told you? The evil god is watching over us. I know youre there. Show yourself!

She dared into the void.

Remn quickly jumped into my shadow. Oh, he escaped.

The space shimrs as it did when #2 appeared, hoping in vain that the evil god would not co out. It was right next to us.
