“Why?”

Ah Ye stood before the shattered French window. He looked down below as the strong winds blowing outside caused his hair to fly all over the place. My first instinct was to take off my windbreaker and put it over his shoulders, but I refrained from doing so, since I knew well that cold of this degree simply couldn’t affect him. Rather, I was the one who needed the jacket at all.

He turned around, asking simply, “Why?” His expression was one of utter loss and helplessness, as though there had not yet been enough time for him to register grief.

I indifferently explained, “It was just to draw you away from Luo Ye. No need to go downstairs. He’ll definitely be dead either way!!”

Ah Ye stared at me with the strangest emotion in his eyes and shook his head with a bitter smile.

Since when did my Ah Ye start holding back his tears? That child had clearly loved to cry before. All it took was for someone around him to be injured, and he would weep and cry out in pain. Yet now, that butler had even been shot at, and Ah Ye is still able to hold back his tears?

“Gē, you still don’t understand. I simply can’t leave. Charles wants to kill you, and he’s so powerful, I can’t leave your side. Forget Luo Ye, even if the adjudication squad was sent to dispatch Melody and the others, there’s no way I could leave you.”

No way… as in “would never,” or “not possible”?

“Gē, why did Charles attack you?” He stared straight at me, as though he believed in that butler even more than he trusted me.

Eclipse Hunter Volume 2: Having Friends, Having Feelings

Original novel in Chinese by: 御我(Yu Wo)

Chapter Four: A Distant Figure—translated by Trespasserby (proofread by Faren & J Tao; C/E edited by lucathia)

Ri Xiang Ye was extremely glad that he had come to this place as Dark Sun.

This “arena” had likely been something like a sports stadium in the past, with a round field and amphitheater-like seats. It was just that the circular field was now overgrown with weeds, and the concrete, step-like seats had many cracks. The place looked more like an abandoned sports field than an arena.

However, this place had a lively air that didn’t seem to match its abandoned state.

The seats were filled with crowds of people, all of them dressed bizarrely. There were hairstyles even more eye-catching than Ezart’s red-orange hedgehog head of hair. The crowds yelled fanatically and fought against each other. There were even quite a few who had already drawn blood.

Ri Xiang Ye was crammed among these people. He wasn’t very happy with this. In the past, whenever he had gone shopping with his innocent appearance, it was people dressed like those currently surrounding him who had bullied him and even robbed his bag.

Thus, he was very keen on finding Ezart quickly, making sure he was okay, giving him his dinner, and leaving right away.

In this packed, noisy mass of people, though, he almost couldn’t even make out what the people next to him were saying. In addition, aside from the somewhat lit arena, the whole area was extremely dark. It wasn’t at all a good place to try to find someone.

GOD V3C6: The Blue Star, Part Two

GOD —The Beginning of the End— Volume 3: The End Begins

Original novel in Chinese by: 御 我 (Yu Wo)

Chapter 6: The Blue Star, Part Two—translated by lucathia (proofread by Melissa & Xuan)

The elf was quietly perched on a tree. Even if one were to peer closely, he would not easily be spotted.

Alan was currently stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Even though he had ultimately decided to return and search for Shooting Star and company, he did not know where the avian village they wanted to find was located. He could only return to seek information in the beast village where they had stayed.

By the time he had hurriedly rushed back to the village from the forest he had been in, it was already the next night. The starry sky that night was particularly resplendent. As a moon elf who loved to dance under the starry sky, Alan would have found a beautiful field of grass to dance in to his heart’s content, if not for the fact that he was in a hurry to return to his companions’ side.

The moment he approached the village, the vigilant elf felt that something wasn’t right. The beast village had originally been peaceful, yet a harsh, withering atmosphere seemed to envelop it now. Seeing that the situation didn’t feel right, Alan did not dare to enter the village. He could only hide in the forest on the edge of the village, awaiting his opportunity.

“An army?”

Alan’s pupils abruptly shrank. He backed up a step, hiding his figure even more thoroughly.

On the narrow path leading to the village, the fully-armed beast army could only advance in three to four filed lines. This caused the army to stretch into a very long line. Even with the elf’s superb eyesight, he could not make out the end of the line. The army slowly advanced to a grassy plain near the village, with only a few among them entering the village proper.

Big and Little Sun Go Go

Original novel in Chinese by: 御 我 (Yu Wo)

Part 7: The Main Quest—translated by Miaka_Mei (proofread by Lala Su & Xuan; C/E edited by J Tao & lucathia)

“The main quest for the world of Dominion’s End: ‘No one knows that he will become the future king of aberrants.’ Please find the witness within the building and ask for clues. If there is no external interference, the witness will die after three days. This world’s time limit: one month.”

Hearing the contents of the quest, Grisia frowned and asked, “Is this the ‘No getting sidetracked, just go straight for the BOSS’ quest?”

So the readers really are choosing the hardest ones?

“The chosen quest was ‘I want to talk to every NPC because there might be hidden quests.'”

Elaro asked in puzzlement, “What is an ‘NPC’?”

“’NPC’ refers to the inhabitants of each world.”

“Opening the Easy Novice World!”

So the readers have chosen “easy”? Grisia thought for a bit. Is it because Elaro said he wanted “easy,” or is it purely because they wanted to make things harder for us? If it’s the latter, then we will need to prepare for the worst in the future.

Despite the thoughts running through his mind, Grisia remained outwardly calm and collected.

“Welcome, Players, to ‘Dominion’s End.’ The current time is the first year of the apocalypse.”

The apocalypse? Grisia was stunned. Isn’t this the easy novice world? What part of the word “apocalypse” suggests “easy” and “novice”?

In the blink of an eye, the room changed completely. The previously clean and tidy room was now in shambles. A foul stench of rotting flesh permeated through the air, and the floor was covered with the dark red stains of dried blood.
