Chapter 437 - From Webnovel to AO3 (and What’s Next!)

Hey hey~ (´。• ᵕ •。`)♡

If you've reached this far, thank you so much for reading! This novel is one of my completed translations originally uploaded on Webnovel, but since that platform caps me at 20 projects per account, I'm now using AO3 to continue sharing my finished works and new translations.

So basically — completed novels like this one are being reposted here, and all my future translation projects will be published on AO3 instead of Webnovel!

To make it easier to keep track of everything, I've made a Carrd that acts as my little digital hub:

👉 rikhi.carrd.co

You can find there:

-My full list of completed and ongoing translations

-News, updates, and links to all my active platforms

-And of course, a place to check what I'm currently working on ♡

Speaking of which — my newest project is titled "My VR Games Terrify the World."Here's the blurb:

'Meng Shu never expected to wake up in a parallel world where VR technology is everywhere, but horror games are painfully primitive. His saving grace? A game development system that's incredibly easy to use, with a unique currency: player fear.

Every scream, every jolt, every moment of pure dread his players experience fuels his progress. With this terror tax, he can unlock the blueprints for every classic horror game from his past world. While everyone else ignores the genre, Meng Shu sees a golden opportunity.

He begins to unleash a series of VR horror experiences that leave players traumatized. Outlast has them pleading for mercy. Visage keeps them perpetually on edge. SOMA plunges them into existential dread, and Alien: Isolation teaches them helpless fear.

From Silent Hill to Resident Evil and Five Nights at Freddy's, Meng Shu's growing library of nightmares has one simple goal: to make the entire gaming world scream.'

Sounds fun, right? 

Also… a small confession. I originally thought AO3 had a scheduled publishing feature like Webnovel—but it doesn't (╯▽╰ )

On Webnovel, I usually upload around five chapters a day per title, with everything pre-scheduled using their timer. Since AO3 doesn't have that option, things will work a bit differently here.

I spend most of my waking hours translating, and I'm still juggling multiple active projects on Webnovel, so my AO3 updates might be a little chaotic. Sometimes I'll do a big chapter dump, and then disappear for a few days — or maybe more than a week (?) before dropping another batch. (´・ω・`)

Basically, it all depends on which project I'm focusing on at the moment. I really appreciate your patience if my update rhythm here feels a bit unpredictable!

Anyway, thank you again for reading, supporting, or even just silently enjoying my work. It means more than I can ever say. (づ๑•ᴗ•๑)づ~☆

Dec 2025

So, I Became a Fairy And Lived Forever In The Fairy World is already rewritten and uploaded on AO3, and the Webnovel version has been updated too. Now it's The Cube Queen's Apocalypse Feast's turn, and I'm rewriting it while uploading the polished chapters here on AO3.

Right now, besides working on The Cube Queen, I'm also redoing When Everyone Cultivates. I'll rewrite it all the way up to the latest chapter I've already posted. Once I finish that, I'll move on to my other AO3 projects and give them the same treatment, rewriting and polishing everything before updating them.

After I finish the AO3 rewrites, I'll go back to updating my ongoing AO3 stories. Then I'll rotate between posting on AO3 and continuing my Webnovel projects. When The Cube Queen on AO3 finally catches up to the newest Webnovel chapter, I'll pick another completed Webnovel project, rewrite it, and publish the polished version on AO3.

That means each story will eventually have two versions, the polished one with my current style and the original one where you can see my whole journey as a translator and how my style slowly turned into what it is now on my webnovel.
