The line on page 4 "six star hunters and above" could probably be translated less confusingly as "six star hunters or stronger".

Yukishiro eating the grass was so cute and hilarious!

It's a tier system. We all know what "tier 6 and above" means.

Thanks for the chapter.

Kurando's decision making is a little hard to understand at this point. He's pretty clearly fine staying on this mountain forever and he doesn't seem fond of the idea of meeting people or going into society at large. Maxim forced him to be a hunter because Akari needs her stuff or whatever but Kurando's shadow magic is so good he could easily just steal her stuff back. Kurando neither stole her stuff back nor even seem to have bought clothing at all. So why did he go to town to become a hunter if he wasn't going to address any of the things he went there for?

Sure maybe next time he'll do it but why? Every entry to the town puts him at risk. You may say oh well in town he can find out about Ichihara, but he basically said he'd like revenge if he can get it but is all content to never meet another human again.

Maxim basically forcing him to be a hunter reeks of ulterior motives, mostly to the benefit of everyone other than Kurando. Maxim will almost certain destroy Kurando's peaceful life in a way that will mostly mitigate any sympathy readers might have when Yukishiro kills him. Also basically every person that opened their mouth in the dumpster town put themselves in direct opposition to Kurando immediately and for no particular reason. So i really can't see any positive motivation for Kurando to continue going there or for Maxim to force him into that town.

One could argue Maxim is going all "one can't live alone" positive type beat but Kurando lived two years alone with a big cat. He more than anyone so far has shown that actually you can do that.

You don't need to go that far, the author just wrote himself into a corner by having him peacefully living like an hermit but them he remembered he needed him to interact with humans for that juicy "character conflict" (and all the isekai cliche he can milk with it) so he had to railroad him.

Well, 10 chapters in and my interest already faded, since it's pretty much lost all its uniqueness, by just following classic tropes.

It kinda feels like the mc lost it's in earlier chapters constructed independence and now is less making decisions for himself, rather is just getting strung along by others, or even ordered around like that giant guy did, which makes little sense in my eyes, especially since he would also be his target of revenge for killing Yukishiros Mother, who literally kept him alive in the beginning. 😮‍💨

 

[Salfaro]

Gonna assume that the reason the one student has two blessings is that it's the "swords" they were given at the start, so he stole MC's. With how Yukishiro+mom reacted to him, I'm gonna guess "Spirits' Idol" was supposed to he his, and that he's still favored by spirits to some extent even if he can't see them, and that extends a bit to magical beasts too.

Could be the affinities were supposed to be his too, but he managed to take back the darkness attribute or something with how he was hating the guy so much before being transported.

He still promised yukishiro to avenge his mom, and i think he needs that connection with maxim to do that. Namely a method to kill him at the very least unless he gave up on that.

 

[zeansunsunzean]

He should embrace the hermit life of beating everyone who pisses him off

 

[nathan67003]

Wow, author REALLY wanted us to know his forearms are shattered, huh

 

[viralepisode]

Super nice TL job!!! Thanks for the read, this is awesome work!!!

Oh shet... peak

When comparing ordinal numbers/ranks like this, it is imo more useful (less ambiguous) to not use greater/higher or smaller/lower, and instead directly refer to its location in a normally sorted list (i.e "top-ranks" or "average"), or better/more commonly, whether it is considered better or not (i.e "better" or "worse" rank).

Quite frankly though, I would abuse my translator's privileges if I were a translator and had to do this kind of stuff, to "localize" the rankings to an alphabet-based ranking system (as it is familiar with readers, and overall detached from numbers entirely), or simply start prefixing all ranks with a minus-sign to make them negative.

The line on page 4 "six star hunters and above" could probably be translated less confusingly as "six star hunters or stronger".

This is also a good alternative, though the reader won't know which direction would be considered stronger (though they also don't need to, for most scenes).

It's a tier system. We all know what "tier 6 and above" means.

Not at all. It is very ambiguous, even if it seems to be more common that the nomenclature of ordinal numbers aligns with "higher" ordinal number corresponding to a lower digit.

I agree completely. I never understood why he decided to go there, make a habit of going there, or adhere to their customs or accept their mistreatment.
I would have understood if he killed the one who killed the mom. But he doesn't.

I can understand that an Alphabet-based ranking system would be easier to understand (as it is the most common way in which they are tackled, in isekai manga), however I feel completely changing the system would be a step too far.

Don't get me wrong, I have slightly altered the phrasing in certain places in the past, however it was never to such a degree that it directly contradicted the Author's original choice of expression.

Essentially, what I'm trying to say is that, as a Translator, yes it is important to ensure the content is understandable within the language I am placing it into, however to go as far as to deliberately change some of the author's wording is not something I believe to be inherently wise.

For example, suppose you had hired an interpreter for a business meeting. While, yes, you would expect them to adequately explain your input to your associates, I feel that allowing them to have too much freedom with your wording, could rather easily give your audience the wrong impression.

I apologise if this reply comes across as rather condescending, I did not intend for it to be. I just thought I would give my opinion on the matter, in the most articulate way I could manage.

Well, I believe this reply might be starting to become more of an essay, at this point. With that in mind, I'll leave it there.

Thank you very much for your original suggestion. Although it may appear that I have completely disregarded it, I'm very grateful that you were willing to offer me a potential solution.

Best regards, Lectonal
