“Geez, even just entering the dormitory turned into an uproar like this…..! And they said the students here are devout and quiet, what a joke! Are they not more like a bunch of mother-in-laws gossiping together!?”
The boy, who had a short build and a quirk of brandishing his blonde hair, finally couldn’t endure it anymore and let out a cry after concluding that he was alone with Leonora. His glassy cheeks turned red. Continue reading “MnS Prologue – Part 3”
The one who appeared was the spirit of light from the church’s teachings.
No, she was not a spirit or a transcendental existence like that. However, even a high ranked priestess would not be able to emulate her appearance. But even after knowing that, it was hard to not believe that she was not someone whose existence was higher than humans. Such was the ethereal beauty that the girl possessed.

Today, Weizsacker Imperial Academy was boisterous since early in the morning.
Weiz Empire was the number one power in the continent. And this academy gathered the sons and daughters of the nobles of that very empire as well as superior commoners from inside and outside the country. Its building had luxurious white walls, and was overflowed by extravagant ornaments, as if being an embodiment of the dignity of the empire.
When the morning bell at the affiliated church rang, the students whose eyes were full of curiosity successively came out to the clean hallway swept by the academy’s servants. Continue reading “MnS Prologue – Part 1”
As you may or may not know, Oyaji Kanojo has a lot of chapters (439 at the time of this post). And as you surely know, my translating speed is far from ideal for this amount of chapters. Frankly, I’m even slower than the author’s speed in releasing chapters (when I started, there are “only” 360+ chapters).
In other words, I’m fighting a losing battle.
Unlike those dedicated translators who can pump out chapter after chapter daily, I’m only doing this in my (keep dwindling) free time out of personal satisfaction. Therefore, the prospect of taking a lifetime to finish the series I’m working on thoroughly demotivated me from time to time.
Thus, I decided to drop Oyaji Kanojo after I finish translating the first arc (around chapter 30+) and pick up a new series in its place.
Having learned from my mistake, this time I chose a completed series with an encouraging amount of chapters (35 including side stories). The catch though, is that this series is much, much harder to translate than Oyaji Kanojo. In fact, it’s probably in the top 1% of WN in terms of flowery language usage.
The title is Muyoku no Seijo wa Okane ni Tokimeku / The Altruistic Saintess is Thrilled by Money. Have a synopsis.
Leo, a cheapskate boy who likes money more than anything, because of an unexpected circumstances, had his body swapped with a beautiful girl named Leona.
Leona was a young marchioness who lost her place in the noble society because of a false accusation. Then, unwilling to go to the academy filled with those nobles, she tried to escape by using sorcery.
Promised with an attractive sum of reward, Leo decided to go to the academy in place of Leona.
Leo was someone who, if appeared in the academy, would be chased away immediately. However, now with his (her?) peerless beauty and peculiar values, Leo was being mistaken as a [ Pure Maiden ] by his (her?) surroundings. The marquis couple, an imperial princess, and even the first imperial prince all began to have an interest?
This is the story of Leonora Von Halkenberg, who came to be called as the [ Altruistic Saintess ].
To tell the truth, I haven’t read this either aside from the prologue. But it is the highest ranked short-completed-gender bender series in Syosetu when sorted by the number bookmarks, so I guess it has to be somewhat good at the very least. I’ll release the first part of the prologue later today.
Hopefully, I’ll do a better job this time around. Thanks for your understanding.
In other news, Oyaji Kanojo chapter 22 is delayed because it’s literally almost twice as long as chapter 21.
A few days had passed since then.
I, who should’ve been a middle-aged man, am now already used to act like a high school girl, having completely adapted to my new life.
I close my legs when I sit on a chair, and mind my skirt when I use a stair.
I also held my breast when leaning forward while wearing clothes that shows my neck.
Being stared at by men was undoubtedly revolting, but more than that, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of superiority as a popular woman.
Even though until recently, I didn’t know anything about women at all.
It’s somewhat a mystery. Continue reading “OK Chapter 21: Breaking Down”
A week had passed since then.
I’ve been playing games with Komori after school, only returning home at 18.00.
“I’m home~”
As I took off my shoes, I noticed the shoes of my younger sister, Akemi.
She normally only come home at 20.00, so today she returned early, huh.
I went into my room on the second floor. Then, when I was changing my clothes, the door was knocked.
“Onee-chan, can I come in?”
Akemi opened the door slightly, peeking through the gap. Continue reading “OK Chapter 20: Lecture”
After school, Hashimoto appeared as Yuuko and I were about to go to Komori’s house.
“Natsumi, I want to go home together as well.”
When I looked at Yuuko, she nodded.
Since she was okay with it, then going together with him should be fine.
Just to be sure, I tried to confirm about his relationship with Komori.
“Hashimoto-kun, we are going to Glasses-kun’s house. You….. never bullied him, right?” Continue reading “OK Chapter 19: Cheer up!”
I moved my chair to Yuuko’s desk once the morning classes finished.
The guys started to mock us upon seeing that.
“What’s with those two, so disgusting. Aren’t they lesbians?”
“That should be true. Seeing how fast they get close to each other.”
“So the reason Oono always rejected men is because she only like women?” Continue reading “OK Chapter 18: The Lunch Break Incident”
At the break time, I went to the toilet to replace my sanitary napkin.
There was an absurd amount of blood.
Am I sick or something?
My stomach also hurt more than yesterday. Somehow I felt anxious.
Afterwards I exited the toilet and walked back to the classroom.
It was then that someone called out to me. Continue reading “OK Chapter 17: Uncool Guy”
After dinner, I returned to my room.
When I nonchalantly opened a desk drawer, I discovered a notebook.
I flipped the pages around carelessly, what was written inside were thoughts of the day.
This is the diary Natsumi kept, huh.
As someone who have to act as her, I feel thankful. Continue reading “OK Chapter 16: Diary”
