If you're unlucky, well... *cough SAO cough* ()

2. Of course this seems to depend on the type of LN and what type of fans it would attract I'll stay away from pure fanservice harems if I were you...

3. Me? I'm just here to shoot the breeze and mess with teh_ping, I've no investment in Accel World heh

4. The newer stuff like DxD feels abit 'lawless' to me; the impression I'm getting is alot of newcomers with little to no idea how the translators work and nobody to correct them.

5. Like what I always say in other LN threads, it's not like there's a Writers' Guild running the show and assigning quests with rewards to people.

6.

1. Not like Index's any less guilty...well, I did have to 'promote' myself when I started volume 7 back then, and when people complain, they hardly say it to my face anyway.

2. Actually, the really popular ones.

3. I came here because BeginnerXP's going to work on this series, better check it out. Of course, your statement can be said for both of us.

4. There's no implementing of rules or organization anyway, and the workload's too great for the admins to handle given so many readers with so few mods.

5. Again, how many people excitedly click 'OK' to level up to level 2 without reading the instruction manual?

6. Why so guilty? I wasn't directing that at anyone

Well to be honest, chinese translation standard varies...I assume the damn cheem Taiwan Kadokawa versions should be accurate...some simplified versions at (a certain chinese LN forum) are ok...but others like for Hidan no Aria are shitty.

What I find when comparing with Jap original anyway. And given how crap my Chinese is I could be wrong. (I'm certain I'm right when I say HnA's mandarin version has many inaccuracies though)

Unless Sunrise plans to retcon in the future, White King is confirmed to be absent in the 1st Kings' Meeting

Spoiler for 1st King Meeting:

Spoiler for 2nd King Meeting:

Now so where was the White King all along...

@Shogen. Nice to see you getting practice. How's volume 6 coming along? (no rush)

@ Teh_Ping Lol, I'll get right to it <.<
looking back at what I typed I think I should do some grammer check lol, switching language back and forth in my head messes up everything

Ivory Tower is merely the White King's "representative," he is not actually the White Legion leader (according to my reading of the text in that picture)

[churchblue]

So basicially we still don't know who the White King is. I would be surprise if SC intentional ran into him in future chapters. The White King is in hiding because of the people Black Vise works for, the Committee. He may know a bit of the purpose of Brain Burst and the AW, but who knows. In my book, I think White King does show because he know something is going on. Anyway, I would be surprised if there are some people in the real world that know the purpose of BB, kind of like my fanfic character Diamond Angel AKA Daniel.

Speaking of DA, I would put pass the fact there is an adult (a really smart one like Daniel) found a way to enter the AW. Anything is possible, right. I wasn't kidding about those BIC experiment trials. Those people are probably put through hell. I hope there are people that strong enough to oppose the Committee.

[higoku1]

Also, in the light novel it stated that the White King was one of the only burst linkers that can recover their health during battle. Legions fought tooth to nails to win over these extremely rare avatars in order to tilt the balance to their favors.

Which resulted in one burst linker uninstalling BB on its own accord, and the White King fighting for survival until it reached lvl 9.

[Kazamachi Shogen]

oh boy why do I have a feeling some fan fics are on the way again.

Which is why I mentioned that White King is absent from the 1st Meeting. Ivory Tower is the one who attended both meetings. Furthermore, it was only in the 2nd Meeting that he mentioned that the White King handed the acting legion master position to him, which would strengthen my theory that the king who got real life pk'ed by Black Lotus is White King.(My guess is that after White King got RL PK'ed, she hastily requested Ivory Tower to attend the meeting for her, and only passed on the acting leadership to him when she has the time.)

If we could know who from the White Legion(White Ivory or White King) joined the hunt against the 4th Chrome Disaster, the theory of Black Lotus RL PKing White King could either be strengthed or disproved.

So who was the king that Black Lotus attempted a RL PK on, if White King was forced into hiding by some committee as what you suggested.

When you're level 9, your head is worth more than your healing to the kings. Maybe that's White King's method of evading danger since he/she went through an extremely political enviroment and had to be more paranoid.

Wait.... I know I haven't read the novels, but Kuroyikihime tried to have someone killed in Real Life? Like murder?! Did I understand that right?

Wow.....

Wow.....

It is unclear on which method she used when she meant by RL PK. Her definition on what RL PK is "To force someone to uninstall Brain Burst through real life methods".

I see... That makes things a little better. RL PK just sounds really bad... especially after reading SAO.

[churchblue]

Sooner or later, Nega Nebulus will run into someone that has partial knowledge of Brain Burst program in RL and was formerly working for the Committee until he found out something they didn't want he to see.

The thing is, there isn't a place where we can post thanks for Accel World. BT doesn't really have a comments place so you won't see anything there

Spoiler for 1st King Meeting:

He/she was there.

“Yes... that is me. The Black King, Black Lotus, was the only person of the people who reached level 9 that did not choose peace. Throwing away bond, friendship, respect, and everything to suggest a fight with all seven’s total points on the table. When that was rejected - the meeting round table was suddenly covered with fresh blood.”

They should have a forum there. You can always send your thanks there.

The only way you can fight a duel with winner takes all points would be to use that item mentioned in V4(Forgot its name). Unless its specified when a lvl 9 will take all of another lvl 9's points when killed, we can assume that the victor still gets 10 points only.

Which means that the duel doesn't have to be right at the 1st King's meeting.

Pretty please?

[Flere821]

Here it is: http://pic.wenku8.cn/pictures/0/381/35637/41423.jpg (From Vol 10, Vol11 had a list of players by Legion rather than by colour)

It's in Japanese, hope you know how to read that
