He had come to terms with the limits of his strength and was living a leisurely life in the countryside. However, his life changes drastically when Alexia, one of his former students, suddenly visits him and tells him that she has recommended Beryl to be a special instructor within the nation’s Knight Order. He is reunited with his former students who have become big-shots such as knight captains, top-ranking adventurers, and ace magicians, and he is kicked out of his family’s dojo. Turbulent times were ahead of him. Beryl was happy that his former disciples adore him, but he is also humble about the fact that he is not very strong. However, while he wasn’t aware of it, he was the owner of an unparalleled talent. Unconscious of his power, Beryl is surrounded by ex-disciples who know of his strength, and gradually makes himself known to the world, all the while remaining rather unaware of all of this. Why It Should Get Picked Up: This is a pleasant little story about a middle-aged martial arts master who goes from quietly training top fighters in the countryside to becoming a top fighter himself. It's got a lot of potential but it was dropped by the previous translator after 9 chapters.
I'm attempting to pick this up. I'm also on Foxaholic and gotten the original translator's permission, just waiting on a formal transfer of ownership from admin.
Picked up by another Foxaholic! Please, watch out for Ch. 10 soon, there's going to be some site administration stuff going on soon.
It's up! https://www.foxaholic.com/novel/an-...y-successful-students-wont-leave-me-alone/10/ Due to issues with site administration and transfer of ownership, it's a separate but similarly titled page that only has chapter 10 for the moment. I've been told that the admin will link the original chapter 1-9 to this continuation, so wait for their web wizardry, I suppose.
Novel has been dropped again. This story has lost its charm for me, even if I stuck with it for 2 years.
