Thanks for the translation


Sad. He won't tell them his future is death. This will lead to suffering for those he helps.

 

[AlaAlba]

Wonder if he’ll really only live for a year or if he’ll find a way to extend it further in his journey.

 

[razorshaleh]

i'm pretty sure that even though this magic cannon has insane firepower, it still won’t be able to defeat the guardian god on the last page, MC is definitely gonna get saved by the twin maids in the next chapter.

thank you for translating

honestly hope he dies in a year. But, completely changes the world of the people he meets and helps along the way, for the better - thus "living past a year" by virtue of the legacy he leaves behind.

It would be way more bittersweet, but would stay faithful to the general concept and would be a braver way to conclude his story, in my mind.
It's really easy to "solve the core problem" of the story by way of sufficiently fantastical magic, sure - but it'd be a mark of great storytelling to not tie it all up in a pretty bow with a "and he lived happily ever after".
There would be many tears shed in his passing, not the least of which the first girl he meets who has fallen in love with him. But the mark he leaves on so many, and on making "a better tomorrow" for still more, would be huge and arguably indelible, and make for a compelling tale.

IIRC, he is going to be called the "young hero" later, which carries the implication that he never grew old

Or that he died young

(edit: I'm stupid and interpreted 'he never grew old' as 'he extends his life and stays young' since that was something in prior comments)

 

[panzerkampfwagyu]

Or that he died young

That's what "never grew old" means

100%. It's a lot more meaningful to me if the story is more about the impact he's had on other people's lives and outlooks in the short time he has left

I believe I've hypothesized in earlier comment sections that it could also imply that his heroic deeds stopped at a young age; like he gets cured, but becomes crippled doing so, which I think is also a better direction to go in than just 'oh, I'm healthy now!'.

It's kind of a nice way to end the series as well, reflecting how it began (being bed ridden), but this time adored by everyone and surrounded by friends and family - no longer lonely... Perhaps even reading about his own adventures in books as well?
Anyway, I'm getting way too specific in my guesswork here, haha!

I wish the pacing were spaced out better. It feels like we're going to fly by a country and some national crisis every few chapters.

"Lord Yona won't be popular in the future, he's already popular now."

Yona's stats
Constitution: -1
Stealth: 1
Magic: 24
Charisma: 75

yeah but I don't think the story is heading toward that direction considering that he is still a child and they already introduce a love interest this early.
He might be still die young but definitely not in 1 year

"Father doesnt have much time left"
Yona: Same

"Relatable"

 

[nkicflt]

Thank you for the update.
I also think that "although his life may be short, his positive impact on people's lives will outlive him" is a better story than "the illness was caused by having too much magic power, by giving up his magic he's cured and will live happily for the rest of his life".

Thanks for the translation.

 

[Kaarme]

Maybe he should keep a couple of the pills in his pocket since the attacks are so vicious and abrupt.

 

[Elcief_SSN]

It would be way more bittersweet, but would stay faithful to the general concept and would be a braver way to conclude his story, in my mind.

Also would be more devious if they first give a glimmer of hope for recovery and finally off him anyway Like they did in assassination classroom. I remember that left me totally broken back then.

 

[HelioCesar]

poor cinnamonroll D:

 

[Psychronia]

His ailment is called "Mana Overload", so I feel like the reveal is going to be that he'll survive just by casting large-scale magic constantly.

If he just dies satisfied, however, that'd be cool.
