[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.

  • I'm actually rather shocked you stayed consistent with the releases. No one can berate you for being late or releasing in parts. Nai wa~

  • Ibdont give a shit about what you say. JUST DO YOUR WORK YOU LAZY SLAVE!!

    JK. Do it at your own pace man. We can wait. Maybe.

  • Dude. Just saying what everybody has said already. Take you time. I've been with you since around ch 34. Been a long long time. What's an extra week or two going to change? Go at your pace and enjoy the story just like we are. No point in translating something that you hate. And as always thank you for taking your time to translate this awesome story.

  • Thank you for your hard work Reigokai-sama.
    If you want to stay consistent, splitting it into parts or finding a partner to help you translate, should help with that.

    Again, thank you for your hard.

  • I want a full chapter at a time but i understand limiting the word limit. I'm ok with a long chapter taking more than 3 days.

  • well i wanted to say that you are charging too less for the sponsored chapters at least increase it to 60$ at the very least 80$ will do too . And go ahead with your plan .

  • Thanks for the hard work, if it's a long chapter, why don't just give us an info and take your time to translate it, i actually prefer to wait a bit to read the full chapter than read in part.

  • Either release them as you finish or release two parts if you feel the wait would be too long. No one can fault you for putting yourself first.

  • As many above have said, plz take the route that's easyer for you. I quiet like the frequence but it would be way terrible if you got sick because of this. If my vote counts for anything it would be to realyse parts of long chapters
