Here’s Chapter 247,

The rescue mission starts to take shape.

Here’s Chapter 246,

Here’s the first chapter of Axe of the Thunder God.

Things are mostly sorted after this, so the rescue mission can start to take shape.

Although with two madmen taking part in it, it is probably not a rescue mission of the discrete kind.

Here’s Chapter 245,

Considering how much was foreshadowed, a lot of you guessed what was going on with Elk.

The real question is, how does Rei match up to an A rank adventurer?

This is the first chapter of a new arc, Axe of the Thunder God.

Here’s Chapter 244,

Rei cooks up a dastardly plan and Elk falls to the dark side, or has he?

This marks the end of the Merchant Escort arc, and we move onto the Axe of the Thunder God Arc, the last short arc before spring arrives.
And with the arrival of spring, the War with the Bestir Empire arc begins. Something to look forward to.

I’ve added the chapter labels to the illustrations that have appeared in the this arc to the Volume 7 Gallery page.
Note that the is one illustration that was LN events only.

I’ve also added the volume cover for volume 14, that came out last October.
Some of you having been asking about illustrations past volume 12 and I’ll see what I can do about it since I don’t have any of them as of right now.

Here’s Chapter 243,

Elena is having her fair share of troubles and Elk will have his soon.

Here’s Chapter 242,

Home sweet home.

I have nothing witty to say so I’m just going to leave it at that.

I need more sleep.

Here’s Chapter 241,

Mission Complete.

3 more chapters to the end of this short arc.
Well, I say short, but it’s still taken me 3 months to translate it……ahhhhhhhh.

Here’s Chapter 240,

A new year, a new week and a new chapter.
Welcome to the 20’s people, the year where we all have 2020 vision, except those that don’t, like me.

Jokes aside, I did say I would put out more information about the other series which I had been working on.
I’ll do that in a separate post because I need to set up quite a few more pages before that is good to go.
On the bright side, I finished that series before the new year, even if I did cut it a bit close.

I go back to work tomorrow, which means I’m doomed as I still haven’t fixed my sleep schedule yet.

Here’s Chapter 239,

A late Merry Christmas to you all and a Happy New Year in advance.
This is the last chapter of 2019, another year has gone by, quite quickly as well.

Back on the topic of the chapter though, even evil has standards, and some bandits don’t meet the standards.
An additional note on Louise’s speech, she drags out the final syllable of the last word in every sentence. I haven’t thought of a good way to show this so I’ve just tagged ~ on to the end of each of her sentences for now.
I also forgot to add an illustration for chapter 237, so that has been added back in now.

Lastly, I had been planning to release a Christmas chapter for Legend, but that never ended up happening because of other other series I’ve been working on. Two chapters a day for the past week really takes its toll on me. The good news is that I am 28 chapters through out of 30 chapters + 3 side stories, so I’m still on track to finish it before the end of the year. After it’s all translated, I’ll probably spend a day or two editing everything and will provide more information about what series I’ve actually been working on next week.
