Okay, so after looking at the polls and the comments you guys have left me, I've decided to compromise and put both chapter links and the entire story into 1 page. It'll take a bit of time before the rest of the books are condensed into 1 page, but I'll try to do them ASAP.

Book 3: Rule C – The Twelve Holy Knights’ Third Shared Rule: “No matter how lame/foolish the Sun Knight looks, never ever provoke his wrath.”

*Disclaimer note: This is merely a translation of the original Chinese version. I do not claim any part in the creation of the original story.


 

Royal Palace of Moon Orchid

"Aahhhhhhh!!!!!"

An ear-piercing scream pierced through the quiet night, coming from Princess Alice's room.

Princess Ann and a group of knights burst into Princess Alice's room, but was greeted with the sight of her royal highness crouched on the ground, sobbing and burying her face in her hands. When she heard them burst into her room, she shrieked in a panicked tone, "Get out! All of you get out!!"

The knights looked at each other in confusion, but upon seeing no one else in the room, they turned to look at Princess Ann who nodded her head, dismissing them.

Ann walked over to her distressed sister's side and asked carefully, "Sis, what's wrong? Was it a spider?"

Alice just shook her head, not saying a word.

Ann grew more worried and said, "I'll go and get someone--"

"Don't go!" Alice hurriedly stopped her sister.

Ann paused. 'Don't do this, don't do that. Just what was wrong with her?'

"Sis, you're really worrying me like this," she said exasperatedly. "No matter what it is you have to tell me so I can help you."

Alice slowly lowered her hands and looked up, but upon seeing her sister's stunned face, she burst into tears again and started wailing.

Ann had a strange expression on her face and she asked in bewilderment, "Sister, your face…… why is it so dark? Wasn't it just fine this morning?"

"I had just finished wiping off my facial mask, when I looked at myself in the mirror and saw my face and screamed…… My skin……" she sobbed.

'Cheh! So it's just this little problem?' Even though her face had turned darker, it wasn't that bad. Ann looked at her sister, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. "I've told you not to play around with all those facial creams. You see now? Now you've gone and used some questionable cream and ruined your fair complexion!"

"How can it be?! I had carefully followed the instructions!"

Alice hurriedly showed her sister the instructions for whitening cream that the Sun Knight had given her.

"'Sand, Evening primrose petals, Root from a Venus-fly trap, Essence of Skunkweed, Yellow Ochre, Unripe Raspberries and black squid Ink. Ground all ingredients together before adding in ochre and ink. Heat up the mixture to 100 degree before applying to skin. Time it for about three hours before washing off,'" read Alice.

Staring down at the strange instructions, Ann could hardly believe her sister actually dared to apply them to her face. After a moment, her expression turned even stranger and she asked her sister carefully, "Sis, where did you say you got this from?"

Alice answered without trying to hide anything, "From the Sun Knight. His skin is so soft and smooth and fair, there shouldn't have been any problems!"

'I knew it……' Ann smiled wryly and said, "Sis, why don't you try piecing together all the capital letters?"

Realising that something was up, Alice quickly looked down and read out, "S E R V E S Y O U R I G H T…… 'Serves you right'! Aahhhh!!!"

The liche lost a body, Solerwaith had been beaten to an inch of his life, and now even she herself had not escaped his wrath……

Alice's screams continued to ring through the royal palace for three days and three nights.

"Sun Knight!! You shameless despicable bastard!!!"

~O~O~O~O~

One day, Leaf carefully opened another letter from his dearly beloved Ann.


 

My Dear Leaf,

What you said to me about the Twelve Holy Knight's Third Shared Rule: 'No matter how lame/foolish the Sun Knight looks, never ever provoke his wrath' is so true! After continuously treating her face with various whitening creams for a month, my sister's skin has yet to recover even a little and is still as dark as ever.

Because her lover's injuries were mostly healed by the Sun Knight, he was able to return to the Church of Chaos and back here again to propose very quickly. However, my sister dared not appear before him before she regains her previously fair skin, and she dared not accept his proposal for the same reason. She is now crying in her room every day. But even if she were to cry every single day, her skin still won't turn fair again.

Ahh!! That Sun Knight is sooo scary! Leaf, make sure you don't provoke him! If you do, quickly escape and come over here. I'll ask Michael to hide you in the church of War. Maybe that way you could evade his wrath.

Praying that you never ever get on the Sun Knight's bad side,

Your Ann.

  2. I can't begin to describe how happy you have made me with this... THERE WERE TWO MISTAKES THOUGH

    1.'I knew it……' Alice smiled wryly and said, "Sis, why don't you try piecing together all the capital letters?" that Alice, is supposed to be Ann

    2.End of Second Volume

    you were probably waaaay to fired up, for not noticing this mistakes ^_^

    ReplyDelete
  3. Siguusa: Yeah. The original hidden message was deciphered from the first character (word) in each sentence and said something along the lines of "Serves you right for killing Leaf!"

    The original 'recipe' said "seaweed, scorched earth, mud, sand, green pepper and tuberose; Stir-fry and apply for three hours."

    ReplyDelete
  4. Anon: Oh, haha. thanks for pointing that out. And it was such obvious mistakes! Anyway, thanks, I've corrected them.

    But for gods sake! What a stupid princess... she heard the recipe once, and didn't even think about it? Serves her right!!!

    I'm not surprised that Ann loves Leaf after he put her in place - manly and loyal, and all... but how did this happen to Leaf???

    Can't wait for the continuation!! :D

    ReplyDelete
  19. Hahahahaha, that was awesome. XD I love how she didn't notice the recipe sounding so drastically different from what he described in the cave. XD Excellent chapter. <3

    ReplyDelete
  20. How does the princess actually not notice how wrong the recipe sounds? I mean like how many brain cells does she use?

    And as usual, amazing chapter!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Lol, wow. I'm really impressed you translated a joke like that! Although I have to agree, how can the princess not guess that that stuff will turn her dark? Haha

    ReplyDelete

    Typically if you want to help, either you join as a translator/proofreader or basically make a donation to support the group.

    That should help, as for the method, you decide

    ReplyDelete
  24. Thank you for translating yet another chapter for us.

    I've a question; Is the series still ongoing or the serialisation has already ended? If yes, then, how many volumes are out yet?

    ReplyDelete
  25. At the moment, there are 7 books in the Sun Knight series, with fans waiting eagerly for the last book.

    ReplyDelete
  26. thanks for the answer anynomous.
    Guess i am too ignorant for not knowing an obvious answer hahaha.

    Tbh i hope, princess ann likes Creus.

    I prefer that pairing rather then ann x leaf

    ReplyDelete
  27. just curious,
    if you've read 7 books so far.... will the Sun Knight ever restore his eyesight? There could be plenty of ways to do it though

    ReplyDelete
  28. Can I use your translations to translate them to Bulgarian? Please ... :)

    ReplyDelete
  29. The 8th book is the last one?? D: B-b-but that's not enough! D: eventhough so far all I've read is what you have translated, which is 3 volumes... but only 8 volumes? D:

    ReplyDelete
  30. In all 7 books, Sun has yet to restore his sight.

    Web: Sure, feel free to translate them. Just, I hope there would be a link back to my blog?

    Anon: Yes, there's only 8 volumes. But there's an extra volume about Neo and Alstair's meeting and adventures. And several mini side stories about the Twelve Holy Knights. :)
    Ans if that's not enough to satisfy you, think about all of Yu Wo's other books!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Yes of course! Here is the beginning:

    ReplyDelete
  32. So Lealyn, you have already read them? and are now going through them once again and translating them, that is some devotion, and i must say this series is very great, specially with his mage sight now, and even advanced magic in Wind, so OP

    ReplyDelete
  33. ^ don't forget that he excels in holy magic AND knows advanced (?) dark and necromancy magic, which should be nearly impossible.
    can he cast other elemental magic as well as wind, ice and water magic though?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Why don't you release your chapters on Mangaupdates.com?? This way you will attract more readers.

    http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=51091

    ReplyDelete
  35. If and when you're done with all the main books will you please post the other stuff too? You have a link to the mini sidestories, but as far as I saw, there's only summaries there, not the stories themselves... - I really want to read all of them, and I love your translations!

    Does Yu Wo has anything in english besides this and 1/2 Prince? - I read both manhua and novel...

    Thanks!!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. For anon above: You can read eclipse hunter by Yu Wo at oddsquad.org ;D

    ReplyDelete
  37. Thank you sooooooooooo much!!!!!!! Seriously it MAKES MY DAY every time you post!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I wonder, does Ann have feelings for Leaf? o.O

    ReplyDelete
  39. Can I use your translation to translate this story in Spanish?? if I like how it translate and post it y will give credit to both you and the author and I will put a link to your translation and the the author. so can I?

    ReplyDelete
  40. Demon~: The only translations that I know of for Yu Wo's books are by odd squad, princerevolution, and me.

    Mizukihikari: There are at least two people that I know of who have asked to translate this into Spanish, perhaps you are interested in contacting them? They're Blacklily and Storyteller. But if you wish to work alone it's fine by me too.

    And yes, Ann does like Leaf. Why does everyone find that so hard to believe? Come on, Leaf's a GREAT guy!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Yeah, he is a great guy, but I still hope he doesn't like her back.

    ReplyDelete
  42. "Yeah, he is a great guy, but I still hope he doesn't like her back"

    I get the feeling! I think Leaf is too good for her, besides that made a lot of girls who love him feel slightly sad... Of the few good men out there, why did he have to like one who scorns our beloved Creus? Why?! *wimpers*

    ReplyDelete
  43. ^ i think it is even sadder (?) that only a handful people know of sun's awesomeness (intelligence and skills). and from those handful people, only a few know about both.

    ReplyDelete
  44. i think that its even even sadder that within those that know both there are less that love him, and now we have at least 3 people scared of him, who deem him as despicable...

    ReplyDelete
  45. Lealynn thanks, lol, I have seen some translation of this in Spanish but they over use sophisticated words and it feels like it takes out from the story since this is a very light tone story. I translated the prologue already and send it to my dad XD. Btw the only type of guy that could help be sun in real life are the Asian guys, they are slim, fair and I just, Photoshop one into having blue eyes and yellow hair yesterday when I was translating.

    ReplyDelete
  46. OMG! the speed of these is amazing! thanks for the hard work!

    ReplyDelete
  47. OMG!! I just stayed put for 1 month..then there are already tons of chapter!!! I luv u very much Lealyn!!! Hahaha...It made my worse nightmare disappear....I can\t wait for the next book....

  50. "i think that its even even sadder that within those that know both there are less that love him, and now we have at least 3 people scared of him, who deem him as despicable..."

    Yeah, I feel the same! But he has US. We all love him, don't we?

    ReplyDelete
  51. OMG. there are already three teasers for LSK volume 8, and i can't read them! i'm dying to know what they're about (esp. the third, since it's from sun's pov?).

    btw what language are the novels written in? i know the author is taiwanese.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Super random question, besides the manga, is there any other picture/image for Sun's sword somewhere?

    ReplyDelete
  53. Yeah, I feel the same! But he has US. We all love him, don't we?
    That's so true... I was getting to depressed over him not getting enough love... How silly of me :3

    I readed them hehe! with the crappy translation of google but stil... oh, and I was prety sure that the author is Chinese... did I get that one wrong?

    ReplyDelete
  54. You know I just thought of something does the Pope knows that Hell is Roland? I mean in the chappie where Sun wanted to bring Hell, the pope seemed to imply he knows whose Hell is. That aside, I really want Judge to tell Hell, I could just imagine the comical situation when Hell follows Sun 24/7!

    ReplyDelete
  55. I bow down to your awesome skills! I love this blog! Please please please update soon!
