    Name : Colossus Hunter
    NU link: https://www.novelupdates.com/series/colossus-hunter/
    Why it should get picked up:
    Great second chance story that got taken away because of copyright issues. I hope somebody would picked it up again.
    Cough *woopread translation* cough

    But yeah it was great while it lasted.. I was hoping someone would be willing to continue it. It was from the same author as Dungeon Hunter and King of the Battlefield. And the interesting part for me is how the MC have to play or act as both the Hero and Demon Lord, as he is literally both. He somehow managed to get a power(?) that makes it so that at certain time he will wake up as the Demon Lord and he is one of the weakest Demon Lord of all. And even if he is back as his original self, he have to avoid his so called "friend", the one that tried to kill him and bring apocalypse to the world. It was shit in both situations but still fun to read.

    Description:
    He returned from the hopeless future!

    In the midst of the clash between gods and devils, Hansung begins his journey.

    Oh Hansung, the ultimate hero bearing the class Magic Swordsman and the only titled Hero left in the world destroys the evil cult: The Order of Alethea who worship Chronos, the God of Time. Whom his friend Minshik is a part of. After the cult’s destruction, Minshik who is in a state beyond repair spoke out with these words: “If our God reversed the flow of time, I wanted to be a greater hero than you…”

    From destroying a Demon Dragon to the Demon King, and finally, to where Hansung is killing things that are even worse, the hero is stuck in an endless cycle of suffering until he dies. In a miraculous event, Minshik’s ring, a ring Hansung kept after his friend’s death started to glow in his dying breath and caused him to reincarnate into the past. Unfortunately, Hansung and Minshik are reincarnated into the time where Hansung’s parents died in a car crash and he’s forced to live with his somewhat abusive uncle, wherein two years’ time many monsters will start invading. Minshik starts out immediately to gain the class Magic Swordsman and doesn’t realize Hansung also reincarnated. In his concealed state Hansung formulates his plan to save the world by going after an even stronger class.

    Yup, it was from oppatranslations.com I think. They got permission from the author if I'm not mistaken, but suddenly the publisher emailed them to stop so...

    But woopread translation has continued second life ranker which have the same problem if I'm not wrong, so I was hoping they could also picked this up.

    I haven't noticed any major differences really with translation quality. Yeah @Wujigege is handling it. At this point though, as long as it isn't mtl translation quality i'll stick with it to finish as I think Kotb is a great story
