DEMON KING & HERO - Chapter 9-12: Afterword

Afterword

TL: Eevee

Ed: adkji

***

Don’t finish it, don’t retcon it, write side stories!

But after the last special, now it’s really over!

But I’m not retconning things though. Yep, yep, now it’s over, it’ll go in the completed index.

It’ll probably be under the complete section from next Monday onwards.

To all of the readers, thanks for reading this story which didn’t ever give out the name of the male lead. (Eh?!)

I posted up the one-shot I wrote ages ago.

Mm, but for those of you who are curious of my next project, I might try my hand at some of my other ideas. (But unposted are the majority.)

For example,

When I woke up (female protagonist), the heroine is my friend and other crazy beautifuls were surrounding me. (Was what I wanted to write but ‘Rules of Web Novels’ are a thing.) But, in front of the female protagonist’s eyes a game screen is visible, and the male protags all like her? N n, real fem protag friend. So much for hopes and dreams…

Or something like that.

Or an ordinary hero story(was what it was meant to be, but I Don’t Want This Kind of Hero came up. Dafuq?) would also work.

There might be people who’ve seen this earlier, but a story where a crow and a snake come charging in (this is original!)

Or something like that.

I’m a demon king, but I reincarnated so many times so everyone else is even stronger and such a story of a demon king whose life is in danger (Was what I was going to write, but why did a seed novel come up!)

Or something like that.

Ah, writing is hard. What if I have ideas, I’ve got like over 30 ideas and around 10 are written by someone else even before I write it, another 15 are incomplete, and another 5 are just too much.

My willpower = nothing to do x funny novels, but a lot of my favourite murim tales and web novels and so on are all going on hiatus or cancelled. I’ve got nothing to read….

Translator’s Notes:

(1) A web novel by Yoo Han-Ryuh that first started on Joara, and was later published as an actual book.

(2) A webtoon by samchon (Uncle). Official title is I Hate This Kind of Hero, but the one mentioned in the passage is the one that manga leechers have it by.

(3) A Korean light novel publishing brand, a subisidary of D&C Media. Noteworthy for publishing what is effectively Japanese light novels in content and form, only written by Koreans.

Translator’s Afterword:

Well guys, it’s been a pleasure TLing this, and I hope you guys, at least, those of you who managed to stay on despite (or for) all the bullshit that we’ve all tribulated, all enjoyed this, had a lot of laughs, and leave this project satisfied with what you’ve read, and another translation marked ‘Complete’ on NU. (Satisfied with the story? Lol, I meant my TL quality!)

My thanks to Yoni and Emptycube, the owners of this site that picked me up, adkji, my editor who edited nearly all my chapters despite my demanding schedule and ridiculous uploading hours, and Isledir, the drop-in editor for this project when adkji was busy.

Finally, thank you guys, the readers, all of you who lurked, liked and commented, for reading my TLs. Remember, we translators do this for you guys. If people don’t read our TLs, we don’t exist. Thanks guys.

Editor’s Afterword:

Hey guys! So, it is now the end to this ridiculous novel. When Yoni told me to help Eevee to edit this, I was not expecting things to go so haywire. But, I enjoyed every last minute of it. It’s been fun going on this wild ride with you guys, the readers, and Eevee. Thank you to those that have been supporting the novel through reading, commenting, and ninja-ing. See you all around Myoniyoni~ ??
