Very long, well, I'll only be able to work on this more sometime for a week in Jan, and after that it depends.

Unless, we gain new translators, who take pride in their work in making it the best they can.

Let's just say I'm going to be nitpicking on the accuracy of translations here, since I'm more or less looking over this project.
Accuracy, something the editors can't fix, is of upmost importance. My personal reasons for it are so as to not mislead readers on what or how something was written, ultimately to show my respect to the author and the work she has written.

Volume 04 chapter 02

<!—47 -->

The flying boat filled with ether continued to glide over the clouds during the night.

The destination was a sanctuary in the Elemental Spirit World – Floating Island <Ragana Ys>.

It was the venue for the Spirit Blade Dance festival.

Originally, only the shrine princesses from the <Divine Ritual Institute> were permitted to enter the sanctuary to attend the Elemental Lord.

However, this was open to the general public specifically during the Blade Dance festival only.

“Oh, this flying boat is so amazing!”

Overlooking the sea of clouds that extended through the window, Kamito was feeling dizzy.

Anyway, it was his first time riding a flying boat.

But as expected from the ladies of nobility, they got accustomed to it as soon as they unloaded their luggage.

He was relaxing on the sofa in the private room that they were each allotted.

The carpet was subjected to very beautiful embroidery in red with the walls being of polished marble.

All the built-in furniture on board was of the highest standard.

“Nevertheless, there is not even a small tremor”.

“This is indeed a latest flying ship. If all goes as planned we will be arriving about noon.”

<!—Page 48 -->

That being said, Claire lie herself down on the sofa. But no matter, her posture was……

One could easily see her pink panties. Kamito hurriedly turned his face.

“Come to think of it, I have heard that tonight will be the opening ceremony at the castle. Have you brought your dress for the Formal Ball?”

“No, I did not bring it. I hate dance parties.”

Recalling the Blade Dance Festival three years ago, Kamito groaned bitterly.

Honestly, the ball was nothing but trivial.

“Is that so….”

For some reason, Claire muttered regretfully.

“…..? Don’t be embarrassed if you need help over your dress, okay?”

“No no, there’s nothing required!”

Claire blushed and turned the other way.

“Are you angry ...….”

“I ―I am not angry….stupid!”

“….Really, both of you, fighting on a ship?”

Rinslet was amazed at this and shrugged her shoulders.

“Rinslet, what are you doing here ―?”
Next page after a while...
I have put them on BT. Patiently waiting for reviews :o

Finally done with Volume 8 STnBD, now I can move on to other LNs!

Cross Fire, the title of Volume 9, is a tournament format for the Blade Dance, just like the Tempest (V5 to V7).

You're not alone, amico. Someday. Someday you'll have the knowledge if you try!
Happy Halloween, everyone! I'm a bit too old to go knocking on doors for candy, and I've got quite a bit to study. So, I hope you guys have fun-- be safe! Don't forget to brush your teeth afterwords. Got to keep them teeth white -> :D

I see you have the drive though, you will get better in no time. Plus you are starting translating very early! I still suck at Chinese but I forced Kadi to let me translate anyways even though I only had a year of Chinese experience hehehe. Even I thought over my head but oh well, here I am.

Nearing the end of vol 2. I can clearly say that
Spoiler! :
jio is quite a funny antagonist. He's a kid but at the same time he's cocky. I can imagine it ending like the Zero no Tsukaima anime (in that he goes with Claire) or he's actually going to get Restia back and so o (since Kamito starts with wanting to be with Restia again).
Whatever, anything can happen since it's an awesome novel. I'm a bit sleepy, so don't mind me 8)

I don't like sitting in front of a book. It makes me drowsy. That's why I started with translating. I felt that unless I don't start applying my bit of learnings right away I feel forget it in no time.

Though there will be nothing for near two weeks. I am on move right now and don't have the proper materials.

Hey there everyone, just thought I should say "Hi~" hahaha... Well sorry for that giant pause. I know the pain of having no new updates to read, and thats the exact reason why I joined~ (^▽^) ♪ Well, I'm sorry once again but it looks like I'm resuming again. And I also want to apologize for my translation skills... Yes I know it's really bad (⌒_⌒; )
Sigh, translating is tough =_=”... It takes around 8 hours for 1 chapter of Blade  Dance...(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
