Legend Chapter 239

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.

Legend Chapter 238

Here’s Chapter 238,

My Christmas break has officially started.
And I have started my break by……playing Warhammer 2 with friends until 2am and then reading novels until 5am……

I may have made a poor decision on that.
Maybe Taenia can explain why letting the bandits go wasn’t such a poor decision.

Legend Chapter 237

Here’s Chapter 237,

One more week until my Christmas break from work starts wooo.

Unfortunately, this one last week comes with a week of 40C and above temperatures. And my home AC isn’t working.

On the bright side, I’m still alive, which can’t be said for some bandits in this chapter.

Legend Chapter 235

Here’s Chapter 235,

Rei and the rest arrive at Abuero.

Keeping this short as I’m scheduling this about 15 minutes before usual release time.
Got distracted yesterday and didn’t finish translating this until 12:30am lol.
Then almost overslept and forgot to post on time.

Legend Chapter 234

Here’s Chapter 234,

Scheduling this chapter the night before because I’m heading out tomorrow morning.
Hopefully this posts properly without any issues, if not, I’ll get around to fixing in a few hours.

This chapter is mainly a discussion about highway travel and why the Bestir Empire wants to invade, which is for an interesting reason.

And I still haven’t fixed my sleep schedule because I started reading a new novel and have been sleeping at close to or past midnight for the past week.
Nodding off at work has not been great. Why do I do this to myself

Legend Chapter 233

Here’s Chapter 233,

Stayed up last week Sunday/Monday to watch FPX 3-0 G2.
A side effect of that was I screwd up my sleep schedule for the rest of the week ahaha.
Still recovering from that.

In this chapter, the escort begins as they head out of the city.

A few minor changes, the spears from the last chapter were actually brought out on a cart and not the merchant’s carriages, I have updated the previous chapter to reflect that.

Also, that moment when I copied the chapter in to format and then realised I had forgotten to translated a paragraph……

One-shots, future translation plans and How to use European style names in otherworld fantasy (One-shot)

So, this needs a bit of backstory.
I started translating Legend a bit over 3 years ago, which at the time I didn’t realise how big an undertaking I was getting into.
And at some point, the realisation hit me that realistically, I’m never going to finish translating it.

I didn’t want to be a translator that never finished anything, so about 2 years ago in 2017, I started working on a short webnovel series……that I still haven’t finished after 2 years despite it being the same length as 20 Legend chapters or so.

Hitting upon the realisation that I still procrastinated too much to get a short series translated, I decided to do a one-shot instead.
One which is about 2 Legend chapters long.
Which still took me 3 months to finish translating.

Either way, I would like to present a translation……of an essay……posted on Syosetu.
How to use European style names in otherworld fantasy

An extra menu tab for one-shots has been added next to Legend and random one-shots will be posted here sporadically.

In terms of future translation plans for now, I have told myself I will finish that short series I’ve been working on before the new year, so look forward to that.

There’s also another one-shot that Aurum from zirusmusings has been asking me to translate, so maybe you might see another one-shot about how to cook stir fried tomato and eggs in the near future.

In case, it isn’t obvious by now, all the one-shots I will translate are going to be the most random things I find on Syosetu that look interesting.

And for anyone wondering about Legend, same as usual for the near future.

Legend Chapter 232

Here’s Chapter 232,

Another week, another chapter.

This time we get introduced to the other escort party, Beautiful Raindrops

Unrelated to this chapter post, currently debating if I should stay up for the League World Championship finals tonight…
I mean, it’s the finals and I want to watch it live, but it also means staying up until 3am or so with work tomorrow……

And on a final note, a little extra something coming out in a few hours.
Nothing really worth losing sleep over though, since most of you probably won’t be too interested in it.
Thought I’d mention it nonetheless.
