Here I am, back again with another weekly Wiseman chapter and also another briefing of the older chapters.

We’ve done the calculations and we’ve found that it would take at least 1 year and 8 months to fully retranslate the 33 unedited chapters (Chapter 33-66). All Wiseman chapters are split into 3 parts, and the translator only agreed to 5 parts per month. It looks like we’re far from catching up to our new chapters.

In addition to that, we will take quite a big hit on our savings. For the period of that 1 year and 8 months, we would spend over $2040 just to pay the translator. That’s a quite considerable amount of money…

There’s lots of things we need to take into account. We will try to find a way to reduce the time and expenses it would take. In the meanwhile, you guys can give your opinions on this.

Enough of the serious talk, here’s the new Wiseman chapter. Enjoy～（＞ｖ＜）

Oh boy, I have lots of news to share with you guys this week. Let me explain:

1. I will be taking over the publishing of the chapters from Silva. It’s mainly because Silva is lazy and is publishing other novels. So please kindly take care of me from now on~ (\o/)

2. The previous chapters of “Pupil of the Wiseman” aka Wiseman will be re-translated by Nomad, our current translator. This is because the earlier chapters translated by other translators are quite bad and as such, it was quite difficult for the editors, including myself, to proofread and edit it. It placed quite a burden on us since we had to MTL and refer to Japanese dictionaries every sentence for some chapters. Even then, it took quite a bit of time. Hence, we’re raising the white flag and letting Nomad re-translate the earlier chapters. We’ll see how it goes and also, you could give your opinions on this if you like. I’d be happy to read them.
   Note: This will in high likelihood not affect the current schedule of Wiseman. The schedule will still remain one chapter every Friday.

3. We’ve gotten explicit permission from the previous translators to remove the links of their chapters on Novel Updates and replace it with ours. So yeah, we’re close to taking over the Wiseman WN. (^-^)

4. Last but not least, have you heard?! Wiseman will be getting an anime adaptation!!! Exciting news, a new gender bender anime~! It’ll take some time but it’s happening nonetheless. Fingers crossed that they don’t mess this one up like how Arifureta went.

That’s all for the news, here’s the new chapter~ Enjoy~! （～ｖ～//）

Since Silva is too lazy to schedule this chapter, I’ll be the one doing it. Chapter 30 is finally done, but other than that there’s still no update yet on editing hell. Even with 6 people editing, it still hurts so much. Anyways, enjoy~

No update yet on the current editing progress, we’re still stuck on Chapter 30. Meanwhile, let me take this chance to introduce you to our editing team for Wiseman.

Firstly, we have Yanga – The Nekomimi God
Next, we have Exisero – The Arachne Hero
Then, we have Pat – The Fluffy One
After that, there’s miiso – The Miso Soup
Following that, we have Fire – The Extinguished Flame
Last but not least, there’s me – The Ded One

Our goal is to have each editor finish at least 1 chapter per month, with 5~6 editors on board, we are hoping that we will be able to finish this before the end of the year.

Current update on the editing progress, we’ve finished up to chapter 29 and the progress is finally slowing down due to the sharp drop in translation accuracy and writing that hardly connect the dots. It’s hard work trying to interpret the message without being able to read Japanese. We have to rely on machine translation and poke some of our Japanese translators for help in case we still can’t make any sense out of it.
