    NU Link: Doesn't exist (yet). But here is a teaser by @isecai. Many thanks for it!
    Why It Should Get Picked Up: I'm currently totally into reading novels with game settings and/or alchemy. Although I think this story hasn't much to do with alchemy, I am interested in the magic tea the protagonist makes. Is it maybe like potions?! Who knows, maybe if someone could translate a few chapters for a teaser, we all could see more. If the story then turns out promising, also like usually I would buy the light novel raws and share them, if an interested translator rather wants to translate the light novel version than the web novel version.
    Description: "This is the same world as the game?" 20-year-old me, Yura, was abducted and recalled my previous life's memories.
    Moreover, when I was abducted, I was suspected as a witch; doesn't this kingdom get destroyed by the witch at the endgame!?
    I'm anxious that I'll become the last boss, but the power awakened inside me is less like a witch's power, but the power to make black tea instead.
    Since that was the case, I opened a tea shop in the castle of the knights where I freeload.
    By using black tea, I'm subjugating and persuading the demons; I will do my best until I can save this kingdom!

    I am knight order's cheat black tea specialist might be a better translation for the title?
    紅茶 seems to be a black tea and while 師 can be a teacher it doesn't seem to fit well with the synopsis.
    Well, could be a master too.

    Thank you for properly translating the synopsis (by the way, I'm curious, are you a native or did you learn japanese?)! And you are right, we do seem to have similar taste in novels. I really hope they will get picked up, or at least a teaser of a few chapters will be made.

    I studied the basic kana on my own, then I went to study it for three years in uni. The most important thing is to keep honing the senses, everything will fall in like a puzzle when you realize what's the intention of the sentence xD Even now, I'm still crawling my way up in figuring things out.

    Since you read a lot, I think you can figure it out too. Good luck with your Japanese lessons!

    And yeeeees I hope they get picked up!

    I can, but it's about 60% slower than reading web novels, especially if I cannot zoom in on the kanji (due to bad scan resolution).

    Haha, that's good to hear. At least there is hope that with proper learning I also are able to read japanese light novels someday. Lucky, that I'm a very fast language learner. By the way, how long did it took you to memorize the hiragana and katakana seperately?

    That's awesome for you. Hiragana was pretty quick, I remember rewriting lyrics from Japanese songs that I heard into full hiragana in high school when I learned it on my own. I didn't time how long it was because there was no schedule at that time though...

    Katakana is trickier, I only could read them on top of my head after uni. xD And let's not talk about kanji, because besides a few hundreds, I still need to check and recheck them in dictionary haha.

    Hmmm to be relevant to the thread, apparently this Black Tea Specialist is 206 chapters and counting~ :D That's quite a lot if someone wants to translate a good number of chapters for loyal readers. :>

    Hmmm, okay then, if it's alright with you, do you think you could make a teaser for this series?

    I don't want to promise you anything only to let you down, but we'll see what I can do in the future. :cookie:

    Thank you so much!
    I would really like to make a NU entry, but I don't know the genre and other specific details, so I am a bad choice for this job.
