1/2 Hi sorry to bug you! I was looking over those novel caps you posted and noticed the wording is different from the source I'm reading from. For the most part, they're the same and get the same basic idea across, but the dialogue and wording in mine is different. Now I'm wondering which reading is official and which could possibly be translated from a different source? May I ask where you got that cap of the novel from :O? I only ask because I wanna be sure I'm reading from a proper source lol
Cont’d: Omg SORRY haha just now realized you posted the source in another post. You can disregard my last two messages!

Oh yeah lol I just used Goldpanner’s translation bc I was too lazy to open my computer and find the official translation. In any case I like reading fan translations when I can to compare to the official one because often times the official translations just use the exact dialogue from the game instead of doing their own translation. Which is usually fine but sometimes details get lost or it’s just easier to spot certain intentional parallels or callbacks with another translation.
