    Name: The Life of Mt. Hororyuu: The Forefather of all Life and Magic at 4.6 Billion Years Old
    Raw Link: https://ncode.syosetu.com/n3617fx/
    NU Link: https://www.novelupdates.com/series...-all-life-and-magic-at-4-6-billion-years-old/
    Why It Should Get Picked Up: I released ch.1 as a teaser and while it looks interesting, I'm not sure I have time for it. So if anyone else wants to pick it up, feel free. There are currently 6 chs.
    Description: Everyone knows that mountains are stronger than people! Then, it is natural that the strongest mountain is stronger than the strongest human!? This is the story of being reincarnated into a mountain on Earth 4.6 billion years ago, having to overcome giant meteorite impacts and global freezing, watching the rise and fall of the dinosaurs, using a “mysterious power” to distribute magic to living things and thus create dwarfs, elves, and beastmen, and then reigning as a sacred peak throughout history.

    The Earth would technically be 4.5 billion years old. Meanwhile:
    That aside, something about the writing style doesn't annoy me like most First Person POV. Props to the translator. And it turns out that it's actually the translator for Secret Organization, no wonder. Thanks for the work, Translator-san.

    The first chapter looked interesting enough to catch my attention, and there aren't many chapters yet so I don't mind picking it up. That being said, the RAW hasn't been updated for a month so I dunno what'll happen after I catch up with it. I'll update NU once I finish the next chapter and post it.

    Thanks so much for picking this up! The author has started in on it again, so there should be more chapters out regularly. I'll post a link to your translation on my next post

    This story is a gem. Thanks for translating it. I finished the raws while waiting for translations to finish and while I couldn't understand everything, the ending to the last chapter made me smile. I recommend it to anyone who accidentally finds it like I did.
