SSS-Class Suicide Hunter

Chapter 401: Author and Translator's Note

Authors Note:

Hello, this is Shin Noa!

The story of SSS-Class Suicide Hunter, commonly known as [Suicide Hunter], has come to an end today. If you enjoyed it, I couldnt ask for more.

There may be side stories in the future, but for now, this is the conclusion!

As the author, it wouldnt be easy for me to answer the question of what kind of story SSS-class Suicide Hunter is. Aside from the fact that it mixes many genres, the title itself is SSS-Class Suicide Hunter

Speaking of the title, there was a chance to change it to SSS-Class Hunter who Dies to Live before it became a paid series. Sometimes I think it might have been better if I had changed it. However, after it went paid, the ISBN was registered and (..) I couldnt change it (ED: It later changed to this title after 1 year)

I sincerely thank the readers who have spent a long time with a novel of such a title!

SSS-Class Suicide Hunter was a story about loneliness.Yôur favorite 𝒏ovels at n/𝒐(v)el/bin(.)com

It was a story about how to deal with loneliness, how great a person who can make someone not feel lonely is, and isnt a savior someone who stays with you when youre lonely?

You dont need shining talent, power, or skills. Even if you cant prove anything to the world, even if you are failing, there is value in just being alive. That was the kind of story it was.

SSS-Class Suicide Hunter was a story about death.

It was a story about love and friendship. A story about choices and responsibility.

I am not confident whether I expressed all those themes ambitiously enough. Looking back, there are always shortcomings and things I wish were better. If they are visible to me, the author, how much more so to the readers, making me feel ashamed. Its all due to my lack of capacity as an author.

Despite being such an insufficient story, it was fortunate to reach so many people and receive such undeserved love.

To everyone from the J-Plus team who spared no support for author Shin Noas first work, to Manager Lim Jong-sung who leveled up from deputy to manager during the serialization, to CornCobBits who drew the first cover, to Mintaka KIM and Phantom Beetle who drew the second cover, and to everyone who supported us.

And of course, to all the readers who read this work.

If it werent for you, with your love and support, it would have been impossible for me to complete this journey.

As an author who sits in front of a monitor, its easy to forget that one is always living with people and writing towards those living in reality.

It was your voices, comments, and interest that barely let me remember that fact. At least, it allowed me to strive not to forget.

Thank you.

Because of you, there could be Suicide Hunter, and beyond that, I could exist.

I will continue to work hard!

I think it will be at least a year before I start writing my next work. In the meantime, I plan to attend school and learn the things I was lacking and wanted to learn. When we meet next time, I hope to return a bit more grown.

Its getting warmer. This summer is expected to boast the worst heatwave in recent history, and it seems that the novel coronavirus is still lying low.

Please take care of your health.

Have a great day.

This was Shin Noa.

Translators Note:

Hello, this is @deathking_11042 (my Discord handle),

I know a lot of readers of this series started reading it around early 2020 and from what I could check as its first translated chapter release date, it had been five years since then. This series has been dropped by a lot of translators due to the complexity in translating it.

Throughout my time translating this series, Ive tried my best to be as correct or accurate as possible, but I know I have made mistakes; some of them were noticed by readers which were then corrected, but still, there are many left. So, if you still find any, let me know on Discord.

Aside from that, I know a lot of you plan to reread this series, but I would suggest maybe waiting for a few more months for Wuxiaworld to release the official licensed version of it. They have licensed it according to their forum and hopefully, they will be releasing a licensed version. So, reread it at that time and in the process, you will be helping the original author as well.

Also, I am grateful to all the readers who have donated to make the time spent here not feel like a waste of time. I learned a lot about basic Korean and other language-based nuances, and it definitely improved my understanding of both languages.

So, if you wish for me to do any other series that has been dropped or something that is interesting like this one but has been dropped, let me know in the comments or on Discord as below.

Thanks and have a great day.
