    Why It Should Get Picked Up: The current translator gave up WN in favor of LN. However, the translator only releases the chapter through Patreon (paywall). I hope someone will continue to translate it.
    Description:
    Thanks to the Goddess, he was reincarnated into nobility! That should have been great―― but the skill he got, 【Toxin Decomposition EX】 was simply too plain, and he was made fun of every day at home……

    However, at one time, he noticed he could eat the magic stones of monsters with that skill and absorbs their abilities, furthermore, he was informed he was the prince of the neighboring country!

    What awaited him at the royal castle was an environment where he could train and experiment with the abundant amount of magic stones, bringing out his strong potential――and finally, even acquiring the ability of the legendary monster, the Dullahan!

    Surrounded by an assertive fiancée and a clumsy knight girl, the new life for the boy who will become a “King” begins!

    Translator dumped the WN 2 month ago,
    Someone should translate the LN coz the author made a lot of changes to LN and he even warned that LN gonna be different from WN in syosetu.

    And with all more the reason should the WN be translated, since they are very different.

    Yes, the translator switched and translates LN instead, but only release the chapters in Patreon. I don't know if he has plans to release to the public.

    Nope, $5 per month. Bait and switch. If you click the $2 link, it states the $2 slot had sold out and the next available slot is $5.
