NU Link: Do You Think Someone Like You Can Defeat the Demon King?
Why It Should Get Picked Up: It's Shoujo Ai and it's dark ft scumbag hero party(?), weak and useless protag who turns out to be very op (judging by the foreshadowing in the description) and it's different from most Shoujo Ai stuff. The first chapter is also excellent. Note: The TL at Yado Inn who translated the first chapter (before it was dropped) did say that chapters were approx 10k+ in size. TLs who can translate large chapters in a relatively good pace are preferred.
Description:
According to the god’s prophecy, the girl Flamm was chosen to be one of the members of the demon king’s subjugation journey.

Everyone was a hero possessed a top class power. However, for some reason only Flamm did not possess the power to fight, and all of her status values were 0.

While having ashamed thoughts, nevertheless she continued to put great efforts to be useful to the heroes.

However, one day, she was tricked by one of the party members, said that she “was not necessary anymore,” and sold off to a slave trader.

Flamm was forced to live within a coarse environment as a slave.

However, there she encountered a “cursed sword,” and realized the true value of the weakest power “Inverse.”

The girl, who acquired the power to fight, was honestly indifferent to the demon king already and decided to live peacefully as an adventurer alongside a girl slave she met.

——This is a story of one girl who continued to crawl up from the very bottom in order to regain her peaceful everyday life.

Sounds interesting

 

Kinda repetitive plot but if the writing is decent it can be a enjoyable read.

 

Sounds interesting and kinda cute!~

BUMPING!

 

I have been getting mentioned when it comes to Japanese pick up requests so I want to clarify how I pick novels. I pick based on the average word count
Go to novel information page
Divide total words by total chapter count.
This novel for instance
https://ncode.syosetu.com/novelview/infotop/ncode/n5361em/
It's about 10k words per chapter.
A lot higher than my requirement under 3k words
Cheers!

 

Except no-one mentioned you in this thread? *scratches head in puzzlement*

 

Well just an FYI
and also why a translator might feel intimidated to translate this novel : chapters are huge

 

That's why i was clear in the description. Better to wait for a willing capable TL some time in the future than have some TL agree only to drop it because they saw the length of the chapters when they went to TL

 

I'm finishing up chapter 2 soon. Also, Aya from Aya Translation messaged me that she was probably going to pick up.

Honestly, if a translator cared about the length of a novel, they are either:
A) a MTLer (who does it manually and not copy pasting Google TL)
B) a fking piece of trash

 

So how long is it taking you to translate chapter 2?

Depends how motivated I am. It's almost done, but I also need to get it edited.

Please update the title.

Wait, if her hp stat is zero, does that mean she is always dying then getting revived rhen dying immediately again, or does she spend her life as a revival coffin (ya know, how in manga they show dead people turning into coffins)

 

it's been 3 months since the last chapter so i guess this is valid again.

 

I call a bump for this WN. By the way, there was question to yurikahime in old version of site to translate it. But, TL has full hands with all translations and 3 months rule wasn't completed yet.

 

Hello and good day, I'm Asther from Kurori Translation

I'm curious about the status of this novel. If it's left untranslated I can pick this up, although I might release it in parts given the size and my other translation works. If it works out, please let me know.

Thank you!
