A Word About the New Side Story and a Request for Monthly Votes!

Let me talk about the side story and ask for monthly votes. Today, there was an event where you could read the side story by voting with monthly tickets. I didn't know much about it beforehand and wasn't prepared at all. (I went to bed too late last night and was too groggy—I thought I wouldn't have to write anything.) So I casually clicked to join.

This afternoon, my editor contacted me and asked me to write and post a new side story. That was when I found out... sob, sob, I had to write another new side story.

So I gave it some careful thought this afternoon. Without affecting spoilers for the current or future plot, I still wrote one and posted it. The new side story is now up after Chapter 900.

I don't think the old issue of side stories constantly appearing while reading will happen again, since I've reported it many times. From now on, aside from newly released side stories, all the others will only be placed after certain chapters in the middle. They won't keep showing up at the end of chapters.

Lastly, from today until the end of the month, monthly votes are doubled. If you tip 1,500 coins every night from eight to twelve, four monthly votes will automatically be cast for me. If you have votes, please throw them my way.

Sigh, these days, quite a few sites require tipping before you can get votes, so it's not easy to climb the rankings. The Leader-tier tip from the new reader Battle Beast that arrived unexpectedly today came a little early. If you tip after eight, you'll get quite a few more monthly votes. But I'll still add extra chapters for you! Thank you!

Thank you, everyone! I'll continue updating another chapter
