I just want to share this wonderful novel to anyone who still doesn't know about this series yet, peace.

Translation link : removed due to novel licensing

Instead of not going back to the real world, it's more like he doesn't want to the adventure to end.

Yeah, you can see it that way either.
Imoutololicious already translated prologue and 1/3 of ch.1 (we all know how Imoutololicous work).
The feels of loyal veteran player when the server when down man, the feeeeels.

Also, Shiroe from LH wants to return people to his world.

Reading my own synopsis, and change it.

I'm getting a good vibe from the fact that he equipped all his best items before he was thrown into the real world.

sadly only few people who has extra time who willin to translate tis novel...

maybe the theme was the causes...

this is a good novel, hoping someone is willing to help the translation.

The problem with the MMO themed stories is that I believe it's one of those things were, at least for some of us, it only works once; since a lot of it is just "novelty" and little else. And once the novelty is gone it's mostly just salty nostalgia towards bad memories, along with the bad taste that this is literally "fantasy oroboros" genre so the main character can pull a giant penis sword out of his ass at any point and there are barely any rules to prevent that, which makes things dull—both from a lack of anticipation and a lack of expectations.

A world where anything and everything can exist on whim isn't very exiting, since if for example a big dragon comes then that's no big deal since a bigger dragon can just come out again, and then a bigger one; and story mechanics wise that's encouraged, because it's a MMO.

I didnt read the synopsis so dint actually realize what I was reading in the prologue, so it was all at least a bit enticing, but as soon as chapter one starting pouring the "greatest MMO" divel, everything that I had just read faded to junk.

yea...
I got good impresion from prolog, but when chptr 1 began I fell...

I plan to try to translate this series, but I'm still in the middle of final test though.
Let's see what I can do with this series :).

edit : JK, WN and LN different, lose my motivation.

oh~~~~
TYVM..!!!

Thank you very much!

only part 1 finished?

yeah, we gotta wait for more since most translators are busy with something(summer relax, school, college etc etc)

damn but it looks kawaii and badass more ot badass

ps thats the type of class i want in games but no mmo has it something like a necromancer

^WoW has death knight and diablo 3 a sort of deminecromancer though they are not at the level of a true necromancer

a true necromancer can be one of the most broken classes all advantages of a summoner and no cons

ie. diablo 2 necromancer

Just curious, but is it just the main character stuck or a large population of players? If it's just him it changes the dynamics of how I expect him to interact with his new world.
