To my dear readers,
I only have one chapter today. I wanted to translate more but I didn’t have enough brain cells and energy to do so. Chinese is so different from English. I will have to be well rested before I attempt again.
Instead, I was at the bookstore (there’s a coffee shop inside the bookstore. I was translating there) reading R18 novels because I wanted to see how authors write/describe yummy scenes. LOL. I feel like I’ve done a pretty good job so far. Hehe.
I think you guys like it a lot because chapter 225 has over 9000 views. O_O. I think some of you may be reading it multiple times, because I definitely don’t have that many readers.
Sadly, nowadays, I can’t even get 2000 views per chapter. So sad. Hopefully it’s because people are stockpiling. I know we had that emo Si Mu Han arc.
I don’t know why the author wants to bring so much drama in near the end. We have a lot of sad stuff coming up so be prepared. Don’t blame me because I’m only the translator. I didn’t write this novel. However, I do edit it a lot because the writing is killing my brain.
If you guys want, just read the raws yourself and you don’t have to wait for my translations. I’m currently around chapter 192 of the raws. The chapter itself has more than 12k characters so it’s taking me a while to finish.
The last 6 chapters of the novel is super cute and sweet.
By the way, a few of you have commented recently (and a long time ago) about how you do not see ads on my site. I think it really depends on the country you’re from. If you have adblock off and see no ads, it’s okay. You can help me by telling others about this novel or writing a review or something (if you want).
It is really tough to stand out from hundreds of novels. I’m really grateful to have you guys. <3 . Thank you for choosing to read my translations.
Oh! I have 283 LIKES on facebook now! We’re almost at 300!! Yay!! Hehe. Thank you for clicking, guys! I hope more people will discover this novel.
Lastly, readlightnovel stopped stealing my translations because they steal from my NEXT link. After chapter 238, I stopped linking NEXT. As a result, they completely stopped stealing because they probably programmed it so that none of my announcements show up on their site.
Honestly, I want to link NEXT to make it easier for the readers, but I really don’t want the bots to steal my work. I have spent so many hours on this and they haven’t helped me with anything.
Oh, I also read a comment (from an aggregator site) how translators don’t want to translate unless they get paid. Honestly, this depends on the translator. I definitely want to get paid, but I like this novel enough to translate it even if I don’t get paid.
A lot of Japanese translators don’t have ads on their site and they don’t make any money from translating at all. It’s purely a hobby for them.
For me, it was a hobby but once you get to a certain level and become somewhat popular, it becomes more like work because you need to consistently pump out chapters. If you are too slow, people stop reading. So, in order to keep my readers, I can’t release whenever I want.
For the most part, you guys have been quite patient despite my slow releases. (I’m aware some translators translate 2-3 chapters a day. But those translators usually make quite a lot).
I want to remind you that translating can make you A LOTTTTT of money but it can also make you nothing. If your novel isn’t within the top 150 of NU, chances are, you’re not really making much. Haha. Even those with a million views/month only make around $500 a month from ads (unless they have lots of donations and patrons).
Okay. Here is the chapter
I’ll try to release two chapters tomorrow if I can.
To anyone who wants to binge chapters but feels about due to the absence of the next button, simply run NU on another tab.
And now Grace is trying to blame us for reading erotic novels. It’s ok Grace, you don’t need to worry about being judged, we like and accept you for you! (I read Voltaire Dynasty, i know the real you!!! XD ROFL!!!)
Thank you for the chapter!!!
Thank you for still holding on out there Grace!
There has been ups and downs, regardless I’m gonna stick with you 🙂
please dont be sad, i’m also 1 of the reader who stockpiling. since we dont have time to come and can only wait for vacation to finish all the stack chapters.
