Chapter 14 <— the next chapter is here, click on this link to read it~

When you read the chapter, you will see some unusual punctuation and slang. This was in the original text, which is comedic. Things like using ~~ (duh) blabla, etc. were not added by the translator. Translating humor is incredibly tough, especially when so much context is lost between languages. Slang and cultural nuances rarely have direct equivalents, making it a real challenge to make the translation as funny as the original. A phrase that’s hilarious in its native tongue might fall completely flat, or even make no sense, when translated literally. That’s why we use footnotes.

I hope you like it. Thanks for reading!

Chapter 2 <— click on this link to read it

According to the author, this is what one can expect from the story:

Black-bellied,¹ beastly² male lead (gong) X Goofy, lovestruck,³ black cat shou

Additional Info:

The protagonist starts as an animal before turning human.

Slow-burn, no angst, and fairly lighthearted.

I might migrate the website to a different server and improve it

When I look at this website, I realize it’s looking a bit dated. The layout, the design, the structure – everything feels a bit behind the times. It’s not that it’s bad, but it could definitely use a refresh. However, every time I think about improving it, I end up staring at all the content I’ve created so far, and I get overwhelmed! There are a lot of chapters, you know.

At this point, I’ve decided to focus on finishing the current story first. If I start redesigning the site now, I might lose momentum on what really matters: the project. So, for now, the plan is simple:

1. Complete the TL for I Also Want To Spiritually Cultivate With Shizun Today
2. Look for the next project
3. Design a better, more modern website.
4. Migrate to a free/cheaper server to avoid the website hosting costs!
5. Start the next project

Of course, number 1 is something I will definitely do, and number 2 is something that I look forward to a lot. The rest are what I wish to do, provided I have the time and energy.

Wishing you all the best, and thank you for sticking with me throughout this journey! I truly appreciate your patience and support. I hope to bring you more exciting stories and an improved experience soon. Stay tuned, and take care!

I finally found someone to help with translations!

PipGirlPixie will be translating chapters of I Also Want To Spiritually Cultivate With Shizun Today.

In other news, inspired by our new translator’s nickname, I recently watched the Fallout TV series. It was quite good! I enjoyed myself immensely.

Have you watched the tv show? Have you played Fallout? Which game?

The retro-futuristic Americana look of the games/show was particularly interesting to me, and I was amazed at the mecha they had. Not all of the actors were good, but overall I liked it.

Thanks for reading, and keep an eye out for the next updates. We appreciate your patience and enthusiasm.

Hi, everyone! There’s great news! The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System (Ren Zha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong) has been licensed!

Thank you very much for reading.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! I hope you’re having a great time today.

“I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Thank you very much for always supporting BC Novels.

Just an update since I said I would release a chapter today (Monday): My computer’s internet suddenly stopped working. I tried to call my ISP but the line was busy for over 30 minutes.

I hope I can get it fixed!

Status: Waiting for my internet connection to return! I’ll continue working on the next chapters when I get internet. ATM using mobile which is expensive and the screen is too small.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for a speedy return.

Kind readers, please pray for Du Ze’s little flower that will have to accommodate so many 🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌 bananas.

First draft sneak peek

I have finished the first draft of the first bonus chapter. Those who donated at https://ko-fi.com/bcnovels can already read it now. Those who have donated will get first look at all of the extras.

How it works:

• Go to http://ko-fi.com/bcnovels and donate any amount.
• Once you donate you will get an email that will give you the link and the password for the early access chapters. Check your spam folder for the email if you don’t see it in your inbox.

 

Hmm, the first draft is okay but I feel I should make it better. I will be editing it to make it flow better. It’s pretty difficult to make things sound natural when there’s a lot of  🍌 “action”.

New website for early access chapters

Early access is totally free, you just need to have the password. I posted before that I would put the chapters on Tumblr but it seems that some countries have blocked Tumblr completely.  So I have prepared a different website for the early access chapters. You will need the password that I gave before to view the bonus content.

You can check it out now. Please let me know if there’s any problem. Hopefully, it will work for everyone this time:

I just put some filler text and one image on the webpage for now.

While you are waiting a few days for the release, you can check out this incredible new manga I read: The Story of High School Boys Who Became Magical Girls. The translator just uses imgur since they don’t have a website.

I hope everything will be fine. I’m trying to fix it now. Anyway, in case I’m gone for a few days it just means a bit of computer problems. *shudder*

Eek!

Pray for me!

Edit: Okay, I restarted the computer twice and it seems to be okay now. Just in case there might be more problems later I have scheduled the release for tomorrow. It will be posted even if I am offline at that time. I’m actually still editing the chapter but I scheduled it anyway. Please leave a comment if you find any errors in chapter 93.2.

Edit2: Opened up my desktop and cleaned it. Working okay now. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that there won’t be any more problems.

The story is almost finished, only one chapter and the finale is left!

No more crab issues

❌ 🦀 ❌

After the finale are three bonus extra chapters that you will be able to read here – https://trap-extras.tumblr.com/

To read the bonus content you will need to unlock the blog with the password from here – https://bcnovels.com/free-early-access-chapters-100-guaranteed-no-crab-issues/

I will remove that password soon so make sure you save it somewhere.

Please check if you can access the Tumblr blog right now. There’s only one short post on it but if you can read it, that means everything is working fine and you should also be able to read the extras.

Let me know if there are any problems. Thanks.

If you aren’t able to access the tumblr blog, don’t worry, I will post the chapters without a password later.
