Hey everyone, there’s a few major and minor announcements to make so chapter link will be at the bottom.

Firstly, in a moment of understanding, I realised that Rowlocks Margrave should actually be Margrave Rowlocks, the same way it’s Duke <name> and not <name> Duke. I have no idea why it’s taken me that long to realise that but I have now fixed it in all chapters, sorry about that.

Secondly, I have made some minor changes to previous chapters regarding some translations. It’s nothing story line changing though, so you don’t need to go back to reread anything. Thanks to Estellion for not bashing me too badly over translating ッ XD.

The last thing is the big one. Alyschu has kindly invited me to host my series on MBC XD. Because of that chapter links in announcement posts will now link to the chapter hosted on MBC. Of course, if you would like to continue reading the chapter on this site, I will still continue to host them here. You will just have to get to it either from the previous chapter or the ToC. However, if I make any announcements regarding unplanned chapter delays, they will probably only be on here as I may not have enough time to post on both sites.

Well, with all that said, time to find out what Gran wanted to talk about in Chapter 58.

P.S. MBC runs off a different timezone than my site but I should have set the chapter to release on both sites at the same time. I apologise if their are issues in my attempted time synchronisation.

Hey everyone, double chapters today! There’s also some other stuff I want to say first though so the links are at the bottom.

Chapter 42 concludes the first story arc of Legend, I never actually thought I would get this far with translating when I first started so I’m actually quite happy with myself.

I may seem to be translating slowly but I’ve actually translated the equivalent word count of 2.5 light novels in under a year.

For the people who find that slow, I guess we’re just too used to people like Ren, who on that note, translated the equivalent of 37.7 light novels in a year during his time on Coiling Dragon XD.

So keep this in mind when you feel that translations are slow, we translators are all crazy, some of us are just a bit more crazy than others.

Next up is the story. I would like to explain a few things about the setting that some people may find strange at the moment. Rei himself effectively has the strength of a B rank adventurer. Together with Set, they have the power of a weaker A rank party. However, at this stage, Rei can’t actually get a B rank in the guild as he doesn’t have the social etiquette skills required to get that rank. Ranking up at his current rate is probably best for Rei, and storywise, he seems to understand that.

Secondly, in case none of you have guessed it, the next arc is called Rank Up Test. It’s a shorter,  17 chapter arc.

Thirdly, the Gallery has been updated for those interested, the light novel covers for Legend volumes 4 to 6 have been added.

Lastly, I looked up the summaries for the light novels on Japan Amazon to see which volumes correspond to which web novel arcs. By the looks of it, the Orc Village Raid and Rank Up Test arcs were combined into volume 1 while the third web novel arc, which is a similar length to the Orc Village Raid arc, was split into volumes 2 and 3.

Well, thanks for reading all that, Chapter 41 and Chapter 42 links are here. If you skipped past the wall of text, come back to read it later, there’s some interesting stuff XD.

P.S. I almost forgot, I enabled mobile mode for the site, I didn’t realise it wasn’t turned on, sorry to all those who read this on a mobile device previously.

Okay, before the chapter, just so people read this.

Does anyone mind that I only put previous/next chapters at the bottom of each chapter?

Some other sites have them at the top and bottom so I was wondering if any of you feel that having both is better.

Secondly, would any of you find it useful if I put up a glossary of items, people and places? The glossary would be as up to date as I’ve translated so it will contain spoilers for those who haven’t read up to the latest translated chapter.

Well, thanks for reading that, here’s Chapter 35.

Now that the side quest is finished, onto the main quest. Also, I find it morbidly funny that no one seems to care about Murgas, whether it’s his own party or Rei.

Final note, I’m considering picking up another series. Although I don’t know whether I’ll end up doing it or not. It may be just that it’s nearing exams and I’m translating just so that I forget about uni work, after all, Legend is already plenty for me.

……I should really work on that project due in two weeks……and that series doesn’t seem to be the most MTL friendly either. Well at any rate, if you’ve read this far, thanks for listening to my grumbling XD. (EDIT: Just a quick note as I didn’t make it clear, if I do pick up another project, it will not affect Legend releases.)

Here’s Chapter 29.

Just a few things to mention, because of the change in timezone due to daylight saving where I am, chapters should come out about 30 minutes earlier than previously.

Secondly, I’ll be adding [Next Chapter] links even though the chapter may not be up yet. This is because I keep forgetting to add back the links to previous chapters whenever I add a new chapter.

On to the story. Well, for those wondering why Rei doesn’t just burn down the whole village, the answer is in here.

Here’s Chapter 22…and 23…and 24…and 25……yeah.

You’re all probably wondering why you got 4 chapters instead of the normal 1. Well, it’s not a birthday present, unless it is your birthday, which in that case happy birthday.

The translator’s corner discord chat ran a mahjong tournament which I entered. Unfortunately, I seem to have missed the part about the loser of each round having to pay in either songs or chapters, chapter/6 points or song/2 points.

Aaaaand I lost by 18 points T.T so it’s the weekly chapter + 3 more.

So I would like to take this time to say gamble responsibly, and if possible, don’t gamble at all.

Well aside from that, enjoy the chapters XD.

Firstly is the finale to the Queen Ant fight. Then the receptionist is introduced, you know, the one with the ponytail that never had a name. After that, we finally get into the main story of this arc, the Orcs.
