[Nerevarine]

Alright! i can finally read again! (didnt want to spoil myself with the other chapters yet; reading in order)

thnx dark. again

[Memm]

Thanks Dark, I myself haven't passed off chapter 5 from volume 6, waiting for someone to translate the remaining chapters of this volume, but since I know more or less what's chapter 5 about (from the anime) I don't mind skipping it and continue to chapter 8 since it's a long chapter it must be interesting.

Added another 25%... So its 55% now.

And needs editors...Like usual...

Also I was thinking about Menvil's wand... The way it looks in the image it is more of an cane rather than wand so maybe it should be changed to that? If there is a single alive editor maybe he can give an opinion here?

maybe smth mixed? like "magic cane" or smth of the sort?

[Darknemo2000]

I dont think magic cane is that good idea... would look too weird...better wand or cane.

Anyways, 10 more percent added meaning it is 65% translated.

[Darknemo2000]

+15%... So now it is 80%...

And still no editors...

[Darknemo2000]

Finished... Fully translated...

Need...an...editor...

As for what next...I don't know... Will have to reread chapter 2 and 3 of volume 7 to see if they are important...Probably will translate chapter 3 as it is about Julio and he is important...Don't know about chapter 2 though...

Edit: Will have to translate both..Damn...

[Nerevarine]

haha, dark, you are awesome

[Krikit]

wow.........O_o he's like a mini translating PKer O_o

lol. Thanks Dark, i can't wait to read volume 7's updates, and then volume 8....I'm really looking forward to volume 8, but I do want to read volume 7 too, so thanks tons,

OK, reread the chapter, editing a bit (small grammar mistakes, wording etc.)

had a few questions after in understanding it:

First

Spoiler! :

Agnes stabbed the last mage with her sword.
“Kuu!”
However, the sword did not come out.
The last mage released a spell aiming at Agnes’s back…

Doesn't make a lot of sense. She stabbed him, the sword didn't come out, the next thing we know, she's getting a spell aimed at her back..

second

Spoiler! :

“You… You are the magic Institute of Experimental platoon leader? You broke the royal list of military material in storage?“

seems to me like smth is missing "institute of experimental what?" Or did I misinterpret the meaning somehow?

Third

Spoiler! :

Using ‘Gold transmutation’ water steams in the air were turned into oil

Why Gold transmutation? what's the word used there? Logic dictates that it should be Alchemy

Fourth

Spoiler! :

The wind’s square indicated by itself that it was the same sky.

Just would like to know/understand the meaning of this one.

Also

Spoiler! :

It was getting dim - the sun started rising. Changed dim=>brighter, since it's morning.. I don't know if dim is used when speaking about the changing light intensity from night to dawn..

“Can’t you see? Your students were captured by Albion’s handymen.” Changed handymen=>henchmen. Seems more apropriate

If anything was unnecessary, feel free to revert it ^_^

Also, just in case added link to previous and next chapter ^_^

[Darknemo2000]

About the spell, as I understood mage released a spell standing in front of Agnes which aimed itself at Agnes back. There were no line about him moving away.

Its experimental platoon, yeah I know it sounds weird but thats how word to word translation sounds.

Yes, should be alchemy. My mistake.

I dont know about the sky. Thats word to word translation but I have no idea what it means myself.

About dim - it really was 'dim' I searched few times in dictionary if it really was so as it was morning but thats how it was written.

[salv87]

ok, understood the spell part..
other questions, ok, maybe we'll get some more info from others..

about dim.. the "dim" word itself is, in my oppinion, the process of going from lighter, to darker..
since the we have "the sun started rising", then it's the opposite, so I suggest we leave wmth that makes more sense.. as in the sky was getting brighter..

Well, If smbd can explain to me that 'm not right about the meaning of "dim", I'm listening.

[Darknemo2000]

You probably should change the dim part out. I just left it to stay true to the novels. Editors are the ones who care how sentences look annd how the meaning is display and they can change the material accordingly (as long as it is reasonable that is).
