Year-End Update

 Hello, Dear Readers!

It's been a while since the last update, and I want to apologize for that. A lot of things happened again that kept me busy.

First of all, last October, I got sick with COVID. Although I was already completely vaccinated and had 2 booster doses, I still got sick probably because my immune system was at the lowest at that time. My colleagues got sick first so I had to cover almost everyone's shifts until I had barely enough sleep. It was just mild COVID but because of the virus, I became susceptible to pneumonia. I thought at first I had tuberculosis because I was too weak, I lost appetite, I have fever almost everyday, plus my chest ached so much that even as simple as breathing is too painful to bear. I was down with sickness for almost 10 days.

After recovering, I went straight back to work and what welcomed me is, of course, my backlog. I had a pile of charts to complete on top of my duty. And then when November was about to end, we had to make a quarterly report, a semi-annual report and an annual report. With those circumstances that I had, I wasn't able to touch my translation works. Sorry, kids. Adulthood sucks, so don't try to grow up fast.

So what will happen now to the translation? Well, for the status, only one chapter left for the 4th volume. We still have a spin-off volume, okay?! LOL I haven't had the chance to scan it yet so I cannot give you some sort of synopsis for the spin-off volume. 

Again, I'm sorry for not giving update this past months. My physical health and mental health suffered and I don't want to burden other people with my problems. I know it's kind of annoying that I did not leave any updates but after this month, I will be back again to my previous duty schedules. 

I also want to apologize for my monthly subscribers. I'm really, really sorry. I saw in my email that you still donated the past months and I felt guilty for it. Rest assured, I will post all of the illustrations from the novel and when I start translating the spin-off volume, you will be the first ones to read it >.< Thank you so much for being patient and understanding T_T

Merry Christmas, everyone. And advanced Happy New Year. May you all have a blessed and awesome New Year ahead.

See you all again next year, okay? ^_^

Sincerely yours,

Manic Josei

“Princess, I made tea just now!”

I told the Princess who was reading a letter at the table.

Vol. 4 Chapter 8 pt. 2 - Hero Suddenly Proposed

Is this good-bye? T_T Separation anxiety is real!

VOLUME 4: Chapter 8 - The Deciding Match

[part 2]

“Ludivine!!”

As Azul’s screams echoed in the hall, Noir’s right hand, stabbed by Milly-sama’s knife, crumbled. Eventually, it extended to Noir’s beautiful face, and eventually her entire body crumbled and disappeared.

It was the end of Ludivine, also known as Noir, who is the third most powerful subordinate of the Demon King.

“At last……!”

Vol. 4 Chapter 8 pt. 1 - Hero Suddenly Proposed

Welcome to the last chapter!

But first, I want to apologize for the very, very late release, especially for my Ko-fi monthly subscriber. Work was hectic lately because of the semi-annual reports and stuff, hihihi (Yes, doctors can also have administrative jobs).

I hope you'll give me your support to the very end. Thank you so much for understanding. (>.<)

VOLUME 4: Chapter 8 - The Deciding Match

 

[Part 1]

“Greed-samaaa……!”

The next moment, the bracelet and the band of light surrounding me emitted a dazzling light at the same time.

“What……!?”

The light hit Azul, who was about to swing his sword down at me. His body was then blown away forcefully.

“Gah, this is……”

Vol. 4 Chapter 7 - Hero Suddenly Proposed

Last 2 chapters left. T_T

Am I the only one who feels this separation anxiety? :((

VOLUME 4: Chapter 7 - On to the Stage of the Deciding Match

 

──Riiing.

Suddenly, a sound resembling the sound of a bell echoed in the office

──Riiing.

The sound came from the bracelet worn by Greed on his left wrist. It was a warning sound that resonated with the paired bracelet.

And when it rings, it is when she is in danger.

“Aria……!?”

Vol. 4 Chapter 6 pt. 2 - Hero Suddenly Proposed

I wonder if everyone is already aware of the new threat, the monkeypox. Please stay safe, everyone. We don't want a Pandemic 2.0. *sighs* 

Also, I want to sympathize and offer my condolences to the family and friends of those who fell victim to the Texas school shooting. :((

VOLUME 4: Chapter 6 - In the End, It Became Like This

[part 2]

I slowly opened my eyes and saw the engagement bracelet on my left wrist emitting a faint light.

……I wonder what this is . . . It’s warm?

Not only was the bracelet shining, but it seemed to be warm.

Mystified, I turned my eyes away from the bracelet and looked around.

Vol. 4 Chapter 6 pt. 1 - Hero Suddenly Proposed

"Hey, Manic Josei! How busy are you?"

"Well, I haven't got drunk ever since our year-end party last December."

LOL. Seriously, I want to party and get drunk! I want to go on vacations! I want to date normally! *sighs* Children, I beg you to not to obtain a degree in the medical field because it will mess up your sleep and life. HAHAHA XD  

VOLUME 4: Chapter 6 - In the End, It Became Like This

 

[Part 1]

The scene in front of me suddenly changed, and when I came to, I was in another room.

Apparently, it looked like the living room that I was first brought in to when I was forcibly taken into this castle.

That means……
