    Looks like Second Coming will be on a break for an uncertain period of time. More information can be found on this post here from the company themselves.

    that was a somewhat asshole move... shut down the previous translator saying you've got a license, yet they are "still working things out with a publisher" and maybe won't be able to continue... nice going, really nice...

    hope it will restart...

    They seem to be doing great for an "offical" group... They have all of 4 comments on basically their most popular novel, lmao.

    Honestly I'm confused on the specifications of their agreement with the publisher. They had something, but their trial period (from how they've described it) sounds like it was a really informal agreement. The fact that they said this could take upwards of a month makes me think there is still a lot of work to be done in deciding the actual terms of their contract with the Korean publisher. I also wouldn't be surprised to see this take more than a month. Their Patreon did pretty well and it's possible that the Korean publisher may have gotten a little money hungry because of that. This is all my own speculation, but it's definitely plausible from my experience.

    Hope they would translate and stack chapters while they finish up this problem. And I hope everything goes well

    The author should not have the ability to hand over the secondary licensing rights. It's definitely the Korean Publisher.

    I just hope it won't turn into another Book Eating Magician, that was supposed to finish talking to the publisher in a month about a year ago. That was the last time the novel was up
    don't tell the publisher is Sinyoung! We are not seeing this novel ever again!

    Ah, you mean... the sponsor group back in Earth.

    Honestly, I don't remember the names much, except the main cast.

    They were a new website and now they want to move to a new website. Most likely, they wanted to cash on in this novel's popularity and hoped things would work out somehow. Feeling for Fudge and the old tl though, hope it works out somehow.

    Why were the chapters removed from the website? I can't seem to find them anymore.
