LCD The Second Coming of Gluttony

Did I just see...Hao Win...acting like a villain to wingman for Seol?! And to two women at fhe same time!!!

I LIKE THIS GUY!

 

Yep he useful in a different way than underling #1 cuz he's acting more like a bro. MC would probably never get anywhere with the girls if his Triad bro didn't do anything.

 

DOUBLE KILL! wel, MULTI KILL if you're into shotas too.

 

And then a Yandere was born.

 

Thus, our pig heroine was introduced. Poor foul-mouth maid, Maria. She was forgotten after being used.

 

Ah...those chapters ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

ohohoho~

Agnes is definitely the bear. A squirrel...maybe the Yi sister? Then the deer is Odelette?

Looking forward to Seol waking up. Ufufufufufu~

 

MC is planning to make a animal kingdom harem in his dreams.

 

Misunderstandings soon to intensify

 

Lol Yun Seo-Rah is a golden piglet!

 

Honestly I just noticed that the author has images of the novel on his twitter page. I love to look at images for the book because it lets me see what the MC and other characters look like.

 

Lol the pig is sneaking into the warm bed of her master!

 

Lol. That ending. I wonder if the paid chapters started from the next one on munpia

Can you link the authors twitter

 

Did some searching and found some...posters(?) of characters.

Some of the images are available in clear version in tl's twitter
*secretly waits for the maid one*

 

I am unbelievably relieved that the illustrations aren't "japanese cutsey" shit. So so relieved. Illustrations alone have made me drop LNs.
Also is that my girl maria The blond maid? She's the only one i recognize. The rest i cant tell who's who. Very nice illustrations thanks

 

Spoiler: text wall

C1: Honestly feels a bit like a bait 'n' switch to have everything from her perspective for the prologue when she won't be the protagonist. Also, I sincerely doubt that his feelings are the only thing that's going to be transmitted into the past. The MC's cheat is never that weak in these novels.

C2: Why would he still have casino chips on him? Why wouldn't he have cashed out before he left, especially if he was desperate for cash? Also, if he lost his eyes years ago, then why is he still trying to make money by gambling? Is he stupid?

C4: "Even the beginning was with the man sitting on the riverbanks of Tancheon" Why would that have been the case in the original timeline when he was so completely incapable of regretting his actions prior to the dream? It's not like he could have had the dream in the original timeline after all.

C5: Yep. I knew it wouldn't just be feelings. I'm betting he'll remember tons and tons of super useful info.

C6: How did he withdraw 2 million when he didn't even have 200 thousand? Did he take out a loan or something? If so, then how? If he could do that easily, I'd find it very hard to believe that he'd disgrace himself in front of his friends and family first.

It's not much of an apology if he didn't even put a note in the envelope. How's she supposed to know who it's from or what it's for? The odds of it causing her anxiety are extremely high.

That aside, he really should have made some sort of preparations prior to leaving. I'm sure there were some things from our world that would have helped him in that one.

C7: I wonder how many people will try to kill and/or rob him after this.

C8: Just what kind of pull did his recruiter have that she could arrange three of those boxes if they were so OP?

Why are his eyes called Nine Eyes if they're in the seven colors of the rainbow? Once he unlocks all the colors, does he get to add black and white to them or something?

Um, orange wasn't one of the colors that got unlocked... Is it a combination of yellow and crimson maybe? So, Attention Required + Retreat Immediately?

Also, vermilion and crimson both mean red, so why did red unlock twice? Or did the translator f' up here and one of them was supposed to be orange?

That aside, he should know what's coming and how to deal with it, so I wonder if he'll just escape on his own, or try to bring the two women with him.

C9: How did he remember the talk on the bridge nearly word for word, but totally forgot the first monster he'd ever seen in his life coming through the floor?

Why does he use a spear when his talents are clearly geared towards magic? Isn't that a waste of his talents?

C12: Speaking of trained vs untrained, why don't they recruit trained individuals? Do they have less potential once they arrive for some reason?

C13: I wonder how long it'll take them to realize that there's barely enough coins for everyone to escape if no one uses the item draw. Unless I'm misunderstanding and the Sixth Floor Key isn't a one use per person item.

...Isn't that a bit too easy? Hopefully, he'll be smart enough to not let people know he's got that list, and to only "search" rooms with no one else in them.

C14: Why was that so funny to him?

Wasn't his luck listed as low? Why were his draws average at worst, with most of them being quite good?

"So, he still had 1061 coins remaining. Even if he went for SPECIAL twice, he’d have 162 coins left over." What? Special only cost 300 coins. How do two boxes at 300 coins each translate into 899 coins? Or is he including the cost of the door key?

Yeah, not being able to read her status is definitely a flag. I'm just curious if it's a good flag or a bad one. It's heavily implied to be bad, but I'm not 100% sure.

C15: 'The so-called Deceased are actually the people who died earlier in the day, aren’t they?’ How was that not obvious?

“How about we split up into two groups of two and three?" How? There's only four of them there.

Why wouldn't they take her to the item draw instead of the safe room? It's clear that she was attacked by a member of the group. There's no reason to think that they wouldn't attack the others too. Plus, they're much closer to the item draw than the safe room, and having lots of people around would make it less likely for his lackey to stab him in the back. He's got an opportunistic personality after all.

Also curious why they didn't grab first aid supplies from the convenience store. It's very unlikely that it didn't have them.

C16: She didn't scream until after the sixth floor door was opened for half an hour. How could they have attacked her before it was opened? Or, if it actually occurred in that sequence, then how did the zombie sister come find her brother before the sixth floor door was opened when the undead were barred from the leaving the third floor until half an hour after the sixth floor had opened?

I figured he'd tell them that they could all come in, so long as Seol was dead before then. I guess he's still lacking maturity as a true villain.

It took him way too long to check the a**hole's status. Personally, I would have done it back in the auditorium.

C17: If she was beating the crap out of him on the floor inside the room, then how did she get outside?

C18: Why 30? Even if they got every single one of the coins, it wouldn't be enough for even one of them to go through the gate. Also, why wouldn't they have attacked the two to steal their coins before they could use the item draw? Do they think that they won't die if they don't go through the gate? If so, then they have more faith in the organizers of this event's humanity than I do.

Or was he saying earlier that they were lacking 20-30 and not that they had 20-30? If so, then that was a really d**k move from Hyun Sahng-Min. At bare minimum, he could have sold them the coins. Well, provided that there was any way to enforce the terms of the sale.

C19: How could he have done nothing and still have enough for the gate? Did she pay his way using the coins she stole from the other girl? If not, then he clearly found the coins he needed himself and should have gotten points based on that.

I wonder why he's not recognized anyone yet. Did none of these people amount to anything or what?

C20: I wonder if he'll use his points on helping anyone else to leave, or if he'll spend them all on himself.

Also wondering if there's a limit on the number of free purchases he can make. If not, then he can make a real killing by buying stuff for nothing and reselling it below market value.

C21: I guess he hasn't realized that he can make thousands of points a day, at no risk whatsoever, by exploiting his discount, especially if he gets his #1 lackey to help. I wonder if he ever will.

"He wondered whether he should visit the other stores, too. But, he just shook his head in the end. Really now, he couldn’t afford to waste a single point, so what was there for him to possibly buy?" Really? What part of "free" does he not understand?

C22: Why didn't he go buy a weapon and some armor before attempting the siege? Or better yet, a spell book and some anti-undead items like holy water? Is he suicidal, or just stupid?

I was really hoping he'd think of the mirror on his own, but nope. The author had to force him to accidentally discover that it did exactly what it said it did.

That aside, if his bag was sliced, then how did everything not come gushing out in a massive explosion? It's a space bag. It's much, much bigger on the inside. If the inside becomes the outside, then there should be an explosion.

C23: How could they form a team? Don't teams have to have at least as many people from other zones as from the same zone?

Wow, that's quite the point investment. It's probably worth it though, especially if it makes him strong enough to do the siege several times in a row. Though, why would he need 60 bottles when they last for 24 hours and he'll only be there for a month? Do those things even work outside the Neutral Zone? It's not like he knows he'll be there for three months after all.

Why is he only running? Does he plan to run away from any danger he encounters? He should be training his spearmanship and his magic too.

C24: "Run around the track until you collapse from fatigue!" Why didn't he start with that one? He could have been earning 10 pts a go right from the beginning, and much more quickly than now too since his stamina would have been nonexistent. Heck, why isn't everyone doing this one? Sure, it's tiring, but it's also safe and a great way to end your day with 10 free points and a minor improvement in your physical fitness. The only downside would be how sore you'd be the next day.

Why isn't magic in his training regime? It's his best area by far, and an absolutely essential thing to learn if he wants to survive.

C25: Ah, so that's why he was completely ignoring magic.

He should just forget about doing missions until his Competence runs out. It'd be a waste to not use them all first, and the efficiency of combat training is generally much lower than normal training due to all the time spent waiting to fight.

Why is he so attached to the spear? Is it just because that's what he used in his last life? If so, then that's a stupid reason. Yes, he has a head start with the spear, but his long term success will be much, much greater with magic.

Why even bother to pretend? He's definitely a warrior. At most, he's got two jobs. There's basically no chance at all that he's a Sorcerer.

C26: “No doping!! Absolutely not!” I can see why she'd think that way, but this isn't about athletics anymore. It's about plain survival.

C27: So, she's skipping straight from solo training to combat without bothering with any kind of sparring? Is she trying to get him killed?

C28: Why would they let Odelette waste herself buying abilities? Why wouldn't Agnes warn her too?

I wonder how many scraps lower than Hard missions, he left for the others.

lol. That must have been a fairly high ranking skeleton for it to be able to despair enough to commit suicide

C29: Why is he thinking like helping her fix her arm would be a waste? He's got more than enough points and her potential was extremely high as I recall. There's no reason to not be building a team. Unless he wants to fully rely on plot armor, he can't go solo forever.

"the mission goal was completely, utterly absurd and no one would be able to clear that." Yeah, he's definitely clearing that one.

Does the translator just not know that vermilion and crimson both mean the same thing? S/he has consistently made this mistake for a while now.

Why didn't they ask him to help her sooner? At this point, it'd take a miracle for her to even manage to be average by the time everyone gets kicked out. There can't be more than 1-2 weeks left after all, and I doubt she's been able to do much of anything for the last two and half months or so. Well, unless you count feeling sorry for yourself and/or barely surviving on the charity of others.

“Don’t get killed. I’ll be here in a month’s time to fetch you.” How could there still be a month left? He started taking Competence like 2-3 days after arriving, drank 60 vials of it, and only then started doing missions. Did he really clear out everything below Very Hard in under a week? If not, then there's a lot less than a month left until he leaves the NZ.

C30: Seriously? What's so hard about figuring out the meaning of Golden Commandment when she straight up told him what it meant? It's just indicating someone he should help since they'll return the favor in kind. Or is the idea of helping people really that foreign to him?

Wtf is he telling her to spend the points on food? Why not f'ing take her and her brother out to eat? It's f'ing free for him. There's no f'ing point in wasting any points whatsoever. I swear, this guy has s**t for brains.

On the plus side, none of them will have been able to afford to buy abilities. As long as he stops them from doing so, they should do quite well in the future. Well, once he helps them back onto the right track anyway.

C34: "Depending on what you do during the remaining time period, you can catch up to the rest, or even surpass them.” There shouldn't be more than a week left though? Or has the author lost track of how much time has passed in the NZ?

Wouldn't the girl recovering from malnutrition, etc. be in even worse physical condition than the brother? Why didn't she have to go do basic training? Is it just because she's female and the author was just trying to get rid of the "boring" brother so that the MC could spend more time with his harem?

C35: "Two weeks flew by as if it was nothing after the training commenced." Okay, the author clearly doesn't know how to keep track of time.

Lilac Teddy Bear is funny and all, but he really should have let it go by now if he has any sense of gratitude towards her, or even if he simply doesn't hate her.

I wonder why no one has leveled up yet. Is it simply not possible in the NZ?

C36: I wonder when the author will finally get around to explaining what the quill pen is. Has s/he just not decided yet?

Even until the end, he never really grasped the value of his 100% discount. He barely used it on himself. He didn't use it on his friends at all. And he never realized that he could resell 0 cost items at a massive profit while being treated as a hero for selling discount goods. Whatever it is that he's got his eye on in the VIP store should have been in his hands long ago.

Of course, if he were the sort of person who used his brain, then the injured girl would have been cured immediately after they arrived (likely for free), he would have passed on all of Agnus' training advice to the three, all four (or possibly six if we include the priest and the opportunist) of them would have enjoyed free, high quality meals and lodging, he would have taken the truly OP (both politically and practically) Sorcerer class, and they would have been in a good position to form his team and conquer the Very Hard missions without Odellete's team, likely several days early and without the author having to pretend that they weren't already well passed the deadline to leave the NZ.

So, it's going to be a harem party. I wonder if the little brother will die, become disabled, or what. Also curious what will happen to sunglasses/ballcap guy.

 

Hey, don't blame me. I'm just translating what I see.

Besides, there is a subtle difference between the two shades.

 

They're both red though. Different shades of red, sure, but red none the less. His eyes are supposed to be the seven colors of the rainbow, plus black and (for some strange reason) gold, so there's not really space for two reds. I assume that one of them must be orange, but I've no clue which.

 

'10 points' , damn that's a cheap booty.

 

I wonder when will Seol check Agnes' status...I wanna see her alias.

Based on severity I think the vermillion is orange.

Here I was wondering where the 10 points came from when she gained a different amount at the Tutorial...
so that's what it is.

 

Oh no so that poor girl sell herself and became a petdog to those 3 European bastards! If only her personality change and become much better...
