Afterword

I would like to express my gratitude to you for reading this book. It’s thanks to all my readers that I was able to bring you the second volume of Level 2 Cheat. I owe this to the support of countless people like you, between everyone who purchased the first volume and everyone who gave me words of encouragement every day as I wrote the web novel. I am truly grateful.

This version has started to diverge from how it was in the web novel, but in both versions you can enjoy the daily life of Flio and his ridiculous friends.

I believe you may have already noticed, but there were several settings in the story to which I have something of an emotional attachment. The obvious one this time was the hot springs. It’s been a long time since I had the pleasure of going to the springs myself. I am very much looking forward to taking a trip when I have some free time.

In the web novel, Flio’s first enterprise was the Ugo General Store, but in the light novel he’s starting with Fli-o’-Rys. I wonder what will happen with that shop, and what will become of Hero Gold-Hair and Tsuya on their disastrous journey. I suppose we’ll find out in the third volume. I hope you will join me.

Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to Katagiri-sama for the excellent illustrations, and everyone at Overlap for handling the publishing side of things. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
