Here’s Chapter 187,

This is a different URL link from usual because the editor for wordpress has changed and I’m still trying to figure out how it fully works.
I will correct the link once figure out how to update it.
Next chapter links to 187 on MBC will be broken until then, apologies for that.

EDIT: This is fixed now.

Here’s Chapter 186,

I had been planning to post a Christmas chapter……but as you can see that hasn’t really worked out ahaha.

Been helping out my family with various summer projects which has greatly cut down on my time to translate.
Funny how the summer break actually gives you less time to work on some things.

Well if you don’t hear from me again before the next week, happy new year!

EDIT: Whoops, forgot to add the LN illustration that appears in this chapter, that has now been added in and the matching chapter listed in the gallery.

Here’s Chapter 185,

Man, I’ll get the chapter I’m still missing out eventually.
Been a bit of a tiring week leading up to Christmas.
Had to do some soldering for an electronics project, driving practice for my license (which I’ve put off for waay too long), Christmas shopping, house cleaning, etc.
There was also farming up on the FGO Christmas event and prepping for fighting Behemoth in MHW, which I need to hunt 4 elders for.

Here’s Chapter 184,

This chapter is out on time.
I’ve usually been punctual with releases but the past few weeks have been *ahem*.

I’m still trying to get more chapters out but currently being hampered by various things I’m helping out with the family, since it is summer break and all.
That and playing Monster Hunter World with friends.

Either way, I’ll try to translate a few more chapters, for Christmas at least.

Also something that might be of interest to a few of you, this guy posted a comment pointing out that Gamelion is actually a month in a Greek calendar. To be exact, it was the first month of winter in the Attic Calendar, which was widely used by the Athenians in ancient Greece.

Here’s Chapter 183,

Much later than I expected, apologies for that.
I usually translate my chapters on Saturday for a Sunday release, but as some of you might have seen on a previous chapter post, I’ve been working on building my own desktop PC case.
I ended up spending 12 hours cutting, drilling, filling, sanding and gluing it together on Saturday which exhausted me a fair bit and I didn’t end up translating the chapter.
This was also quite a chunky chapter so took me longer than expected.

Anyhow, I should be done with work for the year, so I get to start my Christmas break early.

Here’s Chapter 182,

Just one chapter this week, still trying to find the time to tl that extra chapter I missed.
Chapter length has also suddenly increased by about 20% since the end of the Gamelion arc *grumbles*.
I would have done it this week but I managed to get myself full time work for this week and the next, so it has been very busy.

Still haven’t finished building my PC case either, it’s getting there though and I should be done by next week, which is good since the woodwork workshop where I’ve been working on it closes for Christmas break the week after.

My tablet that I bought last year also stopped working two days ago, dead battery probably.
I should probably just get a new phone to replace my old phone and tablet instead of getting another cheap tablet lol.

Here’s Chapter 181,

Mfw I almost forgot to post it.

I’ve made up for one of the chapters I missed out during my exams but I’m still one behind so I’ll try to get that out soon.
This chapter marks the start of the Magic Fever arc.

Here’s Chapter 180,

This wraps up the Gamelion arc.

Next up is the Magic Fever arc, where Rei takes a trip to the frontier city of Baar.
I wonder if any dodgy is going on there……

Here’s Chapter 179,

Sorry for the long wait, the good news is that I’m done with my exams and university work is finished for the year.
There’s been a couple of things which have made me push back this chapter release by a few days, so I’ll quickly go through them.

This is a double chapter release, so a second chapter will come out 30 minutes from this one.
I thought that I might as well wrap up the arc at once, which is why this chapter wasn’t released earlier.

A bunch of terms have changed, so I’ve been going through and changing all old chapters for consistency.
-All instances where Hasta’s family eatery is referred to as a restaurant has been changed to eatery.
-Excel from Scorching Wind has been renamed to Ecryll. Ecryll is actually the better translation of her name and I’m not sure why I didn’t pick it up when I first translated her name. I’ve decided to update it now before she reappears in future, which she will.
-All instances of Orc village have been changed to Orc settlement. I initially thought that the arc name ‘Orc Village Raid’ meant that the Orcs were doing the raiding. Of course that wasn’t the case, so Orc settlement is probably a more appropriate name than Orc village.
-All instances where Gilm is called a town have been updated to city. Just for consistency.
-All instances of recovery effects or magic have been changed to healing. Recovery magic is actually healing magic, so that has been changed for consistency.
-All LN images have now been placed into the appropriate chapters and the gallery has been updated with matching chapter numbers. Images are also larger in chapter and are of higher image quality. Any new images will now be added into the chapters as I go. For people reading on MBC, the gallery is only on my own site at silenttl.

Thank you all for your patience.
