    So... I just noticed that
    https://www.novelupdates.com/series...ll-assassins-sent-against-the-corrupted-hero/
    by
    https://www.novelupdates.com/group/scarletmadness/
    with raws
    https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5038em/

    Of which the title, is mistranslated.
    俺が信じていた仲間は全員、悪徳勇者に送り込まれた刺客だった
    The companions I had trusted were all, assassins planted by amoral heroes
    Ore (I) ga shinjiteita (had trusted) nakama (companions) ha zennin (all), akutoku (corrupted/amoral) yuusha ([hero]es) ni (by) okurikomisareta (sent/planted) shikaku (assassins) datta (were/are)
    exists. It's the short story of

    by
    https://www.novelupdates.com/group/unlucky-slime/
    with raws:
    https://ncode.syosetu.com/n2477eq/

    漆黒使いの最強勇者 〜仲間全員に裏切られたので最強の魔物と組みます〜

    That has been without updates for 3 months, with only 3 chapters translated.

    The longer version is (up until the point I've read in the raws) a slow life type of novel where
    the MC and the strongest monster after failing to reach an agreement to either kill the other, agree to both die together after the MC dies of old age or such.
    So, they travel around, trying to collect the 3 pieces of power that were extracted from the Darkness (Jet black user/shikkokutsukai) hero as a momentary goal while battling monsters, doing quests, meeting people and reuniting with people the MC knew from before the latest betrayal happened.

    It's a discussion based on the poll, etc.

    Oops. I've been wondering for the longest of time why the title didn't quite make sense to me when I translated it. Never checked back on the title at the end either. :blobexpressionless:
    Now it makes more sense. Not sure why I read "ni" as against instead of by. Then again, I translated the title before reading the chapter.
    The chapter itself should be correctly translated.

    Then I apologize for the unchecked statement I have written.
    I am very biased by how correctly the title is translated onto how the translation itself would look like.
    I have removed the statement from my post.

    So, you won't be doing the serialization you say...
    Is that a definitive thing or a [I'm still undecided if I will be taking up the story] thing?

    Apology accepted. Though it hurts, I do understand where you're coming from.
    It's more like I can't handle any more titles at the moment so it's going to the list of "may want to translate" until I'm done with one of the titles I'm translating. Or when I get faster in translating.

    The reunion with the starting 3 heroes and the 3 female party members doesn't happen until much later.
    However, there is another hero that targets MC and gets beat

    I'm currently reading the short story
    It's a plain story, not a main course type novel but more like a appetizer
    Something I'd read if I have the time so yeah I'd read it

    Well, that's something for you to read and find out. I wouldn't spoil the main point of the story that easily.

    Can you at least spoil what chapter that is? Though this may be a late message, I'm intrigued about it.

    Web novel updates stopped 1 year ago but in the last 2 chapters
    he met one of the girls and she stays behind to atone - the heroes and their respective parties were under a curse, they were ordered by the curse hero to nerf the guy and they did in that way

    Idk about LN, I'm talking about WN
