An Important Update: New Home for Announcements & Chat
Hello everyone,
I have an important update regarding how I'll be sharing news and chapter releases for our current novel translation moving forward. I truly appreciate everyone who reads and enjoys this novel alongside me.
As some of you may be aware, the landscape for fan translations can be a bit unpredictable. To operate more discreetly and reduce potential risks (including DMCA concerns that have affected other groups), a necessary decision has been made:
I will no longer be posting new chapter updates on NovelUpdates.
This was not a decision taken lightly, but it's a step to help ensure I can continue sharing this story with you all in a more low-profile manner.
This project has always been, and will continue to be, a passion project done for fun. There are no plans to charge money for access to chapters or implement any kind of subscription. My primary goal is simply to share this novel with fellow fans. Many of you in the comments have rightly pointed out the increased risks associated with monetizing unofficial translations, and I fully agree – keeping this entirely free and non-commercial is the best way forward for everyone.
So, where will you find new chapter announcements?
I've set up a Discord server! This will now be our primary, more private space for:
- 📢 Instant announcements for every new chapter release.
- 💬 Live chat and discussion about the novel.
- ✍️ A place to report any typos you might spot.
This Discord server is intended to be a straightforward place for updates and casual conversation, helping us stay connected while being more "hush-hush." To keep the Discord a pleasant place, please be mindful of our simple guidelines once you join.
Please join me on Discord here:

What to Expect on Discord:
You'll find channels for announcements, novel discussion, general chat, and typo reporting. It's a simple setup focused on getting you the chapters and providing a space to talk if you wish.
What about the website?
The novel chapters will, of course, still be posted here on the website as usual, completely free of charge! The Discord is simply where the announcements for those new chapters will now live. My commitment to providing quality chapters remains the same.
This shift helps me navigate things more carefully. Your understanding and continued support mean a lot as I make these adjustments. Again, this move is all about helping me continue to share this story safely and for free.
Looking forward to seeing you on Discord!
Best,
