Thank god that ended. Sure it was a nice little story, but I'm more interested in the main one.

Think it's a mistranslation.

I think he has a habit of putting dots at the ends of lines as he reads through and grades papers. I could be wrong though.

MC time traveling again?

Woman on the last page vowing revenge on the female MC.

What? "I can't, the Avatar Creation feature won't let me pick Female"

yeah that 8 is confusing.
Google translate turns it in to August, (or march if I cut off a bit on the left and it looks like a 3)
With the 8 it becomes: The August Issue will be released on Thursday , June 27th!!
If I take a pic without the 8 it becomes: The monthly issue will be released on Thursday, June 27th!!
Considering this is chapter 7 though, I'm guessing it actually says: Chapter 8 will be released on Thursday, June 27th!!

Which would be last year (this years June 27th is a Friday). So the next chapter released last year in June.

Do we know who this is?
It's doubtful but my first thought was the MC's sister...

Taup? I'm guessing that's Taupo. Especially if the Author is sticking with New Zealand to get their names...

Weird, there was a Lich Appearing here in another story I just read. Why has the Grand Canyon become so popular?

Has the writer been doing this throughout the story and I have only noticed now that the country I was born in was mentioned?

Aotearoa is the Maori word for New Zealand (means the land of the long white cloud)
Tauranga is a city in New Zealand....

link? I only found 7 chapters on novel updates...

American is uncursed?
I think I'm missing something that would make this make sense...

Why didn't the MC appraise him first?

Yeah Zhang Jue = Leader of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Never heard it translated as Yellow Scarves before :P

Surely he is gonna sell it to flame and fix their problem at the same time...

He doesn't get a share of his "pets" experience.
He also... not sure if this is in the manga yet so spoiler:
He is given a skill by the gods that makes him immune to aggressive attacks (so if any monster attacks him, or he sets off a dungeon's trap)
Coupled with the fact that at certain levels he unlocks new shops, there is a real incentive for him to fight and get stronger but he is still a massive coward.

Nah the MC in that is a giant coward, and a large chunk of the story focuses on food.
The store is the only connection, and it's been done in a few stories.

I too have enjoyed them both.

Currently up to episode 10 and they just finished the Canal...
Not sure how they can finish the next ARC in 2 episodes, unless they stop right before they get to the Royal Capital.

Nah, what she read was about herself, so I think It's a magical book of prophecies or something and only certain people can read it.

Kill it with fire!
