[Not a Chapter]: Survival of Me

I…I’m dying.

As you may have already noticed, the chapters are beginning to turn out incredibly long. Accurately speaking, twice as long. Like literally twice the length of a normal chapter. To give an idea of it, a normal chapter would be around 4k count which is around 14 pages long; chapter 191 is 8k, which was 29 pages.

At this rate, my body will not be able to hold out. Seriously, it can’t. To keep up, I actually sacrifice way too much of my time.

So here I am, for a serious talk with you guys. I have thought out a method that might help keep me alive:

– Limit the word count. As previously stated, 4k is the usual word count of a chapter which is close to that of chapter 190 for reference. 8k would be this chapter 191 and chapter 189.
When faced with an 8k chapter or higher, we can separate it in 2 parts, no more than that. As you know, chapters in this web novel are normally divided already, so the cuts shouldn’t feel as unnatural as other novels.
This will only apply for chapters more than double the length. If the chapter is 5k or 6k, I won’t mind it. But since the chapters that have been coming (and next chapter is actually four times the length, no kidding) are way out of normal word count, I can easily tell that my body will drop dead if I continue at this pace.

This will bring consistency which is what I have been looking for when I placed a schedule. I really want to maintain the schedule, so if there’s other suggestions that can help do that, I would like to listen to them.

  • Have you considered separating the chapters in 2 parts ?? Or maybe 3 of need it that would make it less tedious for you to translate......

  • i'm fine with splitting the chapters if they're properly titled as such to avoid confusion.
    I prefer having a regular schedule rather than wait longer for a whole chapter.

    Thank Regio-sama. Take care of yourself!

  • It's fine Reigoka-senpai you shouldn't push yourself too hard , we are fine with you seperating it

  • Buena Noches!! . Soy un lector en español. Agradezco tu esfuerzo por traducir esta novela. Ten descansos habituales. Seria bueno que dividas los capítulos largos dado que a los lectores, con una pequeña actualización nos conformamos!! . Saludos >o< Fuerza!!

  • I'd prefer a delay & get the whole chapter at once, but that just me selfishly wanting a big meal all at once. It's still tasty as 2 snacks.
    So do whatever's best for you & don't strain urself. We really appreciate ur hard work
    Thank you kindly for the translations 👍

  • it's up to you in the end, most of us here don't mind if you take longer to roll out a chapter just don't kill yourself in the process you have to think about your health as well. good luck like always

  • Do what's best for you, we will still be here to read it. Love your work so even if it is in parts or takes longer to release I will stick around.

  • OK......even if don't cut, take even up to 6-9 days to finish chapter 192 since it's 4 times the usual. That should balance out right?
    We would have to wait but it will be worth the wait.......well whatever, let us know.
