    Aaah, those chalices.

    Dont think the last is vol 10.
    Dont forget they still need to go to Central and cleaning up the Ahrenbach's duchy and creating Alexandria to clear up Rozemain's goddess power. It's all still in the Incarnation of Goddess's theme.

    You're right, ugh:blobastonished: my list is wrong - even the dates are wrong. It's missing Pt 5-11 Vol 32 (which covers web novels Chaps 656 - END/677). My list should be:
    1. Part 4 - 7 Vol 19 ✧ Jun 16 2022
    2. Part 4 - 8 Vol 20 ✧ Aug 10 2022
    3. Part 4 - 9 Vol 21 ✧ Oct 2022
    4. Part 5 - 1 Vol 22 ✧ Dec 2022
    5. Part 5 - 2 Vol 23 ✧ Feb 2023
    6. Part 5 - 3 Vol 24 ✧ Apr 2023
    7. Part 5 - 4 Vol 25 ✧ Jun 2023
    8. Part 5 - 5 Vol 26 ✧ Aug 2023
    9. Part 5 - 6 Vol 27 ✧ Oct 2023
    10. Part 5 - 7 Vol 28 ✧ Dec 2023 ❥Japan-11Dec21
    11. Part 5 - 8 Vol 29 ✧ Feb 2024 ❥Japan-09Apr22
    12. Part 5 - 9 Vol 30 ✧ Apr 2024 ❁Japan 2022Aug
    13. Part 5 -10 Vol 31 ✧ Jun 2024 ❁Japan TBD
    14. Part 5 -11 Vol 32 ✧ Aug 2024 ❁Japan TBD (PROB THE END)

    Yeah...long payoff, right? The foreshadowing/setup was way back in Vol 2 and was just shown in anime a few wks ago.

    Thanks for posting those translations. Much better than Google

    So... based on the number of books in part 5 (either 11 or 12), and assuming that Quof keeps on 8 parts per book, looks like it'll be just shy of 2 years when JNovel is completed the full official translation.

    I kept searching but could not find it.
    Anyone remember where the part we got told about Oswald 'resign'ment? Iirc, it's Florencia that fired him, right?

    thanks for checking
    I found the reference in the wiki timeline (can't post links yet)
    I also read somewhere that, due to Oswald spreading rumors about Rozemyne to discredit her, Wilfried ultimately agreed to be demoted to a Gieb and Melchior becomes the next Aub Ehrenfest, as Rozemyne becomes Aub Alexandria

    Yeah, but I cannot remember if I ever read these part in webnovel.
    Should be in Part 5 around the time or after Wilfred's meltdown or when Arcduchal couple told everyone Rozemin would got to Central, right?

    I think we're talking about two different things that were not answered at all.

    I just read sensei's tweet, the last vol for part 5 is vol 12.
    saix2 is right.

    I originally divided Part 5 to 12 books, too. But when I saw the Japanese fan reviews via Amazon, it seems like it would end in 5-11 instead - at least this is my plan with 5-10 and 5-11 translations:
    • 5-6 (Book 27) - Web novel chapters 558 to 578* - released
    • 5-7 (Book 28) - Web novel chapters 578*-597 - released
    • 5-8 (Book 29) - Web novel chapters 598-618 - released
    • 5-9 (Book 30) - Web novel chapters 618-to 634 - my estimate based on the book description. Chp 1-4 and 6-9 will most likely be combined as in previous LNs
      • 1. Battle of Gerlach Part 1
        2. Battle of Gerlach Part 2
        3. Battle of Gerlach Part 3
        4. Battle of Gerlach Part 4
        5. Victory and Return
        6. Each Heroic Story 1
        7. Each Heroic Story 2
        8. Each Heroic Story 3
        9. Each Heroic Story 4
        10. Sleepless Night
        11. Midnight Tea Party
        12. Temporary Sewing
        13. My Wish
        14. Lunch and Center
        15. Report of the Temple and Melchior
        16. Nemawashi With the Soldiers of West Gate
        17. To Ahrensbach
        18. Health Check and Scripture Making
        19. Request✧END??
        20. Aub Dunkelfelder's Decision ✧END?? (not sure if they will end on 19 or 20 based on the official synopsis/preview)
    • 5-10 (Book 31) - Web novel chapters 636-655 - my estimate based on storyline & previous release web chapter adaptations. I think that 18-21 wil be combined
      • 1. Leader of the Central Knights
        2. House of Peers at Night
        3. Adalzeza's Detached palace
        4. Lanzenaves
        5. Collaborator
        6. The Story of Alstede
        7. Rescue of Solange
        8. The Road to the Garden of the Beginning
        9. Ferdinand's Wrath
        10. Moving Altar
        11. Those who Have Returned From the Garden of the Beginning
        12. Top of the Altar
        13. Battle on the altar
        14. Goddess Library
        15. Zent Race
        16. Demon King's Dark Leap
        17. Addendum to the Demon King's Dark Leap
        18. The pale royal family part 1
        19. The pale royal family part 2
        20. The pale royal family part 3
        21. The pale royal family part 4
    • 5-11 (Book 32) - Web novel chapters 656-END 677?? - there will be 21 web chapters but I have a feeling they might combine 4-5, 6-8, 11-13, and 14-16. If they split these remaining chapters into 2 books, they will have to add new chapters (which works for me - more POV please).
      • 1. Treatment and rewards of the Lanzenaves
        2. Adolfine consultation and ritual preparation
        3. Ritual preparation and Egrantine's dedication
        4. Quiet story Hannelore POV inheritance ritual Part 1
        5. Quiet story Hannelore POV inheritance ritual Part 2
        6. Blessing of the gods Part 1
        7. Blessing of the gods Part 2
        8. Blessing of the gods Part 3
        9. Magic depletion plan
        10. Gold powder making and return
        11. Magical power spray prayer ceremony Part 1
        12. Magical power spray prayer ceremony novella (Part 2)
        13. Magical power spray prayer ceremony Part 3
        14. Memory part 1
        15. Memory part 2
        16. Memory part 3
        17. Name offering stone and engagement magic stone
        18. Visit of Entwickern and Egrantine
        19. Engagement ceremony
        20. The beginning of Alexandria
        21. EPILOGUE: Return Home
    ✿ Give me feedback before I start working on the last 2 books. There will be 42 web novel chapters left and there's no way that I'll divide them into 3 parts. However, I'm not sure if the cutoff is right knowing that the LNs will combine some of the chapters.

    Lastly, still working on 5-1, taking longer than I thought to clean it up. Should link tomorrow.

    That's probably becoz there are going to be a lot of inserted new side stories aside from new prologue and epilogue.


    I'll give my honest feedback. Its good that you didn't include the paid stuff and only translate the free stuff. Its almost close. The notes are a good thing to avoid confusion.

    From sensei's tweet.
    Part 5-9, covers 618-636 apparently.
    And there'll be the Ehrenfest's defense battle second part: 5 new pov stories.
    Yep.
    I'm so excited over these new inserted stories that are not proloque and epiloque.
    Since, the pace during and after she met the gods was a bit rush. Especially in the cleaning up of aftermath battles, I do wish we'll get more of it from other's pov with why/how because Rozemain pov is sometimes unreliable and she's not understanding it from that world's inhabitant.

    When I think about it, Ferdinand only shows up 5 vol in part 5!?
    :cry::sick:

    Thanks :bloblove:, good to know that my translations are close and no, I only wanted to translate web novel because the LN is licensed. I wouldn't mind translating LN if they're not licensed and I can actually cut&paste texts to MTL since I don't speak/read Japanese. That's why I respect fansubs and scanlators who stop subbing/translating anime/manga once the series is licensed. Plus I buy the licensed work if I like them.

    WOW 5 NEW POV STORIES outside of prologue and epilogue?! :blobnosebleed: Sensei is on a roll and I'm so on board her train!!
    Thanks @Kaylee I'll adjust Part 5-9 (and 5-8) to reflect sensei's tweet.
    Since now there are only 41 chapters left for 3 last books, how should I divide them? Even with new POV chapters, the last 3 books will be short (about 13 web novel chapters each). I hope I'm wrong since based on sensei's tweets, Part 5-9 is looking more robust compared to previous releases. Feedback please or else I'll stick to ending on Part 5-11.

    I think the WN Ss and Hannelore will be great project for you. The community I'm in stop at Its really hard to switch from this language then to that language. Sometimes the spellings are butchered but thats fine as long as we understand the message

    From my understanding, because sensei wants to put more ss/other pov like Ehrenfest battle plan in vol 9, so there'll be no additional 2 ss. So, maybe the last 3 vol might change too if sensei wants to give us more pov.

    You meant, you're going to tl for vol 9 or 11? Part 5 vol 4-7 maybe then.
    For me, I'll be glad if you do part 5 more, since those are intense now for me XD
    Or as @saix2 said, Hannelore spin off is also good.
    I stop reading Hannelore's because some part is not easy to understand for me, too romancey I guess and the update is slow. It's better for me to not reading it than forgetting them.

    Is that mtl?

    Sorry, not sure if I understood this but I am translating all web novel chapters starting on the chapter equivalent to Part 4-7 (links posted previously). I wanted feedback if i should divide the remaining 41 chapters of the WN into 2 or 3 books. I'll stick to 2 books for now. That means 11 books to translate for Part 5 Incarnation of Goddess.

    I have inserted Web SS where they fall (ie, the chapter it's related to). If you've read my translation files they are indicated in the TOC.
    I might translate the Web SS related to earlier a books and put them in one document. But I'll do that after I'm done with AOAB.

    Don't think I'll work on Hannelore's spinoff. I like Hannelore as a supporting character but I'm not too much into her story to put in this much work to translate.
