Slow burn but it's written by an impatient person

[cheeseanonioncrisps]

This doesn't affect the speed of the developing relationship at all, but does make for a very passive aggressive narrator.

Slow burn but the writer is angry about it

Volume 9 PDF updated 2/3/2025:

Volume 9 updated and completed

Note: From this point onwards I don't think I'll be able to keep up with the updates. I barely read it anymore, a lot of years have passed and I have more pressing matters to attend IRL so these PDFs will only work as a quality of life for those that want PDF reading but are not desperate to read the updates as soon a translator picks them up. Sorry for the inconvenience.

It's all about the sauce:

The chapters translations are made by OtherSideofSky and Comun. You can read the original raw text submitted by the translator in The Beast Lair along with epub versions.

About the Manga:

You should also read the manga. It has a sharp and beautiful art style (by Morii) and complements the story already being told in the LN.

Credits to:

Thanks to Nakula for translating the initial version (2008) of F/SF Vol 1, and Mew and Food for the extra chapters to complete the final Volume 1. Thanks to OtherSideofSky for translating the Volumes 2 to 6 and Comun for Volume 7 onwards. And thanks to Ryohgo Narita for writing Strange Fake!

I suggest following me on Twitter if you so desire getting updates when I... update... these PDFs. It's also a better way of communicating with me in case it's necessary since this post is a revision of the original I made back then in 2017 but the Tumblr account was breached and deleted the pinned post (this one) so... yeah, there's that.

An archivist found a long forgotten 8mm film reel in an old metal box, marked “Philippines 1942”. Thinking it was lost WWII footage, he sent it in to be restored/digitized. When he got the footage back, he found puppies instead (via)

This is so freaking profound. Like, this was before the advent of the personal camera. Not just anyone owned a camera in these days. Cameras were expensive, and so was the film. When you were recording shit, it had to be stuff you were willing to shell out a pretty penny to have preserved. Someone so deeply and profoundly loved these dogs and found joy in them that they decided to preserve them for future generations to see, after these pups are long dead and gone. This camera operator wanted to preserve the joy these dogs brought them and to share it with others. How incredible is that?

Klein,as Sherlock Moriarty: "I'm not a person who particularly loves money, it's just a very average preference." (Chapter 429)

Also Klein, meeting Edessak Augustus,the third prince: "Upon seeing this, Klein's eyes lit up. It wasn't because of how handsome he was, but because he looked like the Henry Augustus I imprinted on five pound notes." (Chapter 438)

[emm-of-many-thoughts]

Its so refreshing to read Lord of the Mysteries after having read Omniscient Reader, purely because of Klein's healthy sense of self-preservation. Like

Kim Dokja: of course I have a plan, its called "sacrificing myself"

Klein Moretti: *3 page long internal dialogue analysing the situation from every angle in order to not fucking die*

Penelope and Callisto's relationship drama is so fucking funny no matter how many times I reread the story. It literally goes like

Callisto: I WANT TO MARRY YOU

Penelope: I WANT TO BE LOVED

Callisto: LOVE DOESN'T EXIST, MY TRAUMATIC CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES MAKE ME BELIEVE SO

Penelope: THEN WHY DO YOU WANT TO MARRY ME ASSHOLE

Callisto: YOU ARE THE SMARTEST FUNNIEST LOVELIEST PERSON ALIVE AND I WANT TO SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE WITH YOU???

Penelope: BUT YOU DON'T LOVE ME AND I LOVE YOU SO I WILL NEVER MARRY YOU

Callisto: GIRL FUCK YOU

Penelope: FUCK YOU TOO ASSHOLE

Callisto: WHATEVER. I WILL BE BACK NEXT WEEK TO BEG AGAIN

Penelope: I WILL LITERALLY BE DEAD BY NEXT WEEK BUT OK
