An Empire as a Betrothal GiftPrologue

Housekeeping:

If possible, localize the translation and avoid the pain of building a glossary. If readers are against this, this translator is not forcing you to continue reading. It also decreases the chance of me making typos as well because I do not use and cannot read in pinyin. 1PmlWq

Self-addressing titles/ normal titles will only appear the first time in a speech. For example, “This translator will only do self-addressing the first time before switching to using first-person pronunciation, the same when addressing the readers. My goal is to make the reading experience as smooth as possible for you guys and easier on my brain.”

Exception:

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

1) High-ranking titles like ‘Your Royal Highness’, ‘Your Majesty’, and ‘Your Highness’.

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

2) If the author did not use self-address and if the English Translation can’t work without a pronoun, it will be the character’s usual self-address. lLOANp

About the reason why I changed from emperor to king, and empire to country, is mainly a gnawing idea birthed from my time working on PRRW (how there is a king that governs vessel state, and an empire that oversee the dynasty). Looking at individual character, king/王 is a rank lower than emperor/帝. Because there are many kings in this novel, they are more like sons of the emperor, rather than emperor themselves. Because of that, the earliest use of 國/country or land, in this context, is specially lands governed by the king/王, but country will be a more accurate term, and asking the other site owner to change the whole thing will take forever because I don’t have access to my projects.

In conclusion, this translator too ‘second year’ to use the cool-sounding translation over the more accurate translation, and moving it on CG will allow me to streamline any changes needed.

  1. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Important things need to be said thrice. I had read this and The Demon Venerable’s Wistful Desire on the other site (I forgot the name). It’s nice to be able to read it here as well (´,,•ω•,,)♡

  2. Wow, the whole situation is very weird for me D: It’s Your own hard work at this translation and because some unfortunate events made it so complicated… You want to bring this novel on CG and take it down at the other side, so in this special case I think You should be allowed to publicate it here, but well, I not a person who can decide about anything :< I will keep my finger crossed for a successful resolution of this matter! ❤ I was planned to read this one looong time ago, but when You made the news about updating on CG, I waited impatiently and I’m gonna wait for the news hopefully! (♡ ὅ ◡ ὅ )ʃ♡
