    Silavin

    DDL (divinedaolibrary.com) is operated and owned by Silvain. With over 5 years of experience in the web-novel translation industry, Silavin has journeyed through various roles, from a translator to becoming a site-manager. He has demonstrated a profound commitment to quality in the novels he oversees, from 'Martial Peak' to 'Fated Villain'. Such novels would not possess the quality they currently have without his hand in them. In 2017, Silavin, just a serviceman serving the army of Singapore, was hooked on wuxia and xianxia novels. Silavin could go weeks reading and immersing himself in those worlds. There, he stumbled onto a novel, whose translation has ceased. Dedicated to continuing it, driven by a vision to one day have this novel fully translated with quality, and contribution to public, he created this humble site. Without much prior experience in this field, he dove in head-first. Learned programming, learned how to translate, learned how to work in the online space of anonymous people.   Now, after more than 5 years, he, and the community that supports him, has brought DDL to its current heights.   'I would like to thank all of you who have supported us throughout this journey. DDL and I would not have ever been able to finish what we have started without all your support. Thank you. I would truly like to thank you.'

      Chapter 372, Now a Changed Man Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   Tsutomu and his party finally reached the Black Gate that connected the ninety-ninth layer to the hundredth. After one last round of strategy checks, they opened the gate. Garm led the way through, followed in turn by the rest of the group. Only Tsutomu remained behind, lingering at the threshold. He drew a deep breath... then stepped forward at last.   On the other side, four figures stood with their eyes turned upward, scanning the leaden sky,…

      Chapter 375, From Boost-Cancel to Boost-Dance Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin     As unconventional as it was by this world's standards, the maneuver known as Boost-Cancel was a must-have technique for any Dualblader in Live Dungeon. By activating <<Boost>> at just the right moment, a player could cancel recovery animations, from attack follow-throughs to even the sluggish motion of reviving from a knockdown. Whether one could do the Boost-Cancel correctly or not made a night-and-day difference in the speed and…

      Chapter 373, Blood Clots Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   A swirl of black blood congealed in the air, then was wrapped in a green glow as a vivid, crimson liver took shape.   To the untrained eye, it might've looked like Tsutomu was helping the enemy recover, but it was nothing but a part of his plan. Having watched the footage of Korinna's party's earlier attempts, he knew the enemy's regeneration patterns and how to exploit them.   It was possible to attack while an organ was reforming,…

      Chapter 378, Even If Broken Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   "Shall we call it a day?" Stephanie said. "...This turned out to be a more meaningful session than I anticipated. I appreciate your time."   Two hours had passed since Tsutomu had fled the battlefield, and still the feed on Monitor #1 remained unbroken. In a silence thick as mourning cloth, Stephanie, Eunice, and Lorena carried on with their Healer discussion circle. But unlike usual, the mood was subdued, and the air was heavy with unspoken…

      Chapter 376, Retreat from Despair Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin     Despite the storm of frustration roiling in Tsutomu's chest at the sight of Amy and Garm having turned Undead, his body moved on its own, backing away from the battlefield.     In Live Dungeon, layer bosses never moved during phases in which they sent out their minions, but this world's Corroded Elder Dragon seemed all too eager to ignore that precedent. Its whole posture now was poised to breathe devastation across the…

      Chapter 379, Fury at the Divine Developers Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   The moment Tsutomu realized that the battle on the hundredth layer had reached a stalemate, the trauma he had long buried deep within, of being slain by the Corroded Elder Drago, burst forth all at once. It was a terror so overwhelming that it drove him to abandon comrades he had fought alongside for nearly a year. The moment he became aware of his own impending death, he began subtly shifting his movements to avoid drawing the Corroded Elder Dragon's…

      Chapter 377, The Hundredth Layer: Pedestal Market Spectators Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   "What a crowd..."   "Only for today, as an early celebration of the hundredth layer's conquest! Bear Burgers, just 200 Gold!"   "Think they'll win it on their first try again?"   "Can't wait!"   "Please don't run! The seating has been arranged by Master Smith, so there's more than enough for everyone!"   The streets around the Monitor were packed to the brim as people poured in from all directions. The…

      Chapter 380, Beyond the Black Snow Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   "Are you all right?"   "I... I'm okay. Really."   Despite her words, Eunice was clearly at her limit. She hadn't slept since the day before, having sat watch on a Guild bench with her eyes fixed on Monitor #1. Now, even as she cast <<Medic>> on herself to stave off the overwhelming fatigue, her ears and tail drooped as she nodded off again and again.   Camille, who had been talking to Eunice all the while,…

      Chapter 342, Facing the Family Cover
      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   The Fenrir cub, about the size of a large hound, had appeared without warning, throwing the entire party into chaos. From the shadow of Leleia's hood, the tiny Salamander wriggled its way out. Its slitted eyes narrowed in annoyance as it crawled down to her shoulder, locking eyes with the white-furred, mid-stained cub.   The Salamander gave a slow, dignified nod. Perhaps its version of a greeting. The cub tilted its head, then wagged its fluffy…

      by Silavin Translator: Barnnn Editor: Silavin   "So, Miss Korinna, which route should we take?" Daryl asked. "If we're prioritizing safety, the cooperation route would be the way to go..."   "I'm all for it!" Hannah agreed. "Still, I really wanna save that little one if we can! I just feel like there HAS to be a way!"   "Still, I recommend the genocide route," Leleia countered. "It offers the most experience points."   "Leleia, no! We are NOT doing that again! I want a…
