Chapter 14 – A High Risk Occupation

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 19 – Shizun, My Script is Wrong

Chapter 19 <— this is the link to read it

No news today, just getting the work done. I try to get a chapter out every day. It’s tough, you know? Sometimes stuff just comes up and gets in the way. So, I can’t promise it always happens. But I’ll keep publishing more, for sure.

The translator is working hard on the next chapter, and without giving too much away, I can tell you it’s got some really exciting developments! I hope you continue to like reading it as much as I enjoy bringing it to you. What are you most looking forward to in the upcoming parts of the story?

Chapter 13 – A High Risk Occupation

Chapter 13 <— click here to read

By the way, something I noticed is that the author refers to the main character as “pig’s foot.” Apparently, the two words sound similar in Chinese/Mandarin!

主角 (zhǔ jué) – “lead role” “protagonist” or “main character”
猪脚 (zhūjiǎo) – “pig’s trotters” or “pig feet”

But he is a cat, so it should be cat’s paw, except “cat’s paw” is an idiom meaning “the or unwitting tool of another.” I guess MC is still the best term to use.

Thanks for reading, and have a great day!

Chapter 18 <— click here to read it

Now that we are on chapter 18 of 163 chapters, we are 11% of the way into the project. We’ve got a long way to go!

Here is a comment from a reader about the story:

Honestly, I really, really like the Master’s personality and character design, or perhaps it’s more accurate to say I really like the aloof type of Master. The novels I read are basically all focused on characters with similar designs, hahahaha – aloof with a touch of awkwardness. An isolated, arrogant, and proper ice beauty who isn’t afraid of the mundane world. Everyone would guess that she’d live her life alone, never falling in love with anyone, her heart devoted solely to the Dao, as if nothing could ever hold her back.

Yet, it’s precisely this kind of person who would let down all her guards beneath her disciple. She’d pretend not to care when her disciple flirts with her, then secretly blush. When kissed and caressed, she’d quietly clench her teeth and endure. Although often the passive one, once she takes the initiative, she’s like a blazing fire that instantly consumes you. You can’t escape, nor do you want to; you’re willing to fall into depravity with her. Who wouldn’t want to see what kind of charm this aloof person would reveal when pressed beneath someone?

Ugh, it’s so incredibly captivating, do you understand?! Though sometimes, in terms of relationships, this type of personality can indeed mess things up big time (rubbing hands together).

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Chapter 17 – Shizun, My Script is Wrong

Chapter 17 <— click here to read it

I feel like the story summary is a bit too long. Like, it would be better if it were shortened like this:

After her rebirth, Sui An inexplicably gained a spatial System. Through it, she discovered she was a cannon fodder supporting character, fated to fall for the male lead and ultimately die because of him.

The female lead, it turned out, was her own Shizun, Tan Yun.

This was the same Shizun who had always protected and doted on her, yet would eventually despise and abandon her for the male lead. Tan Yun would even lock Sui An in a water prison and forget about her. By the time she remembered, Sui An would be a cold corpse.

System: “Host, follow the script customized by the System. Collect ‘Good Fortune Qi,’ and you’ll have a chance to defy fate and change your destiny.”

Sui An gritted her teeth: “Fine. I’m going to stage a comeback.”

And so…

When Tan Yun’s old ailment flared up and she was captured by villains, they demanded: “The secret manual or your Shizun. Choose one.”

Sui An sneered internally. Of course, I’ll choose the manual!

System: “Save the female lead.”

Sui An (pained): “…I choose my Shizun.”

Later, Tan Yun lay motionless, her body covered in frost, with only a faint breath lingering.

Sui An watched coldly. She won’t die anyway.

System: “Please alleviate the female lead’s suffering.”

Sui An could only warm her, full of reluctance.

Finally, Sui An injured the male lead. His powerful family stormed her sect, brimming with killing intent, demanding Tan Yun cripple Sui An’s cultivation. Among her sect-mates, many agreed, eager to save themselves.

Just as Sui An believed her fate had come full circle, Tan Yun unhesitatingly pointed her sword at the aggressors: “How about I cripple all of you first!”

Sui An was stunned by Tan Yun’s actions: “System, what kind of script did you customize for me? Why have the female lead and male lead turned against each other?”

System: “Ever heard of a yuri script?”

However, I thought better of using this for the NU page because we only translate. We don’t edit the original text.

Thanks for reading!

Another day, another chapter!

I was looking for something to read and came across Please Bully Me, Miss Villainess! (aka 请欺负我吧,恶役小姐).

Summary:

I, Yvonne, reincarnated into an otome game as the evil noble. Based on all other villainesses ever written, a character like me, hated by every reader, should obviously be focusing on bullying the villainess, leading her into the various romance routes. However, something’s wrong with the female protagonist, Elsa! I-I’ve told you that you’re too close to me. Don’t come any further! Elsa: “Yvonne, Yvonne~ How will you bully me today?”

Maybe I’ll read it when I have time since it seems interesting. Have you read it? Is it good?

Okay, I didn’t have much time to edit this as I would like, but I was told that readers would prefer faster chapters rather than super polished ones. Please let me know if there are any errors.

The translator has been working on this for some time, but typos and such happen to everyone.

By the way, some chapters have translated author’s notes added at the end. I asked the translator to add those. Just remember, they are not part of the chapter.  I think you’ll find them amusing. Not every chapter has them.

Thanks for reading!
