Updates about final volume (notes from the author)

Good day fellow knights!
As some of you may know, YuWo has a Plurk account (A social networking and micro-blogging) where she updates regularly.
Interestingly, parts of her updates are her idea/thoughts on her recent writing (and possible LSK vol.8 updates!) that are not seen in her blog.

Here are some of the updates she had in the month of September.

FYI, the last book LSK volume 7 was released on July of 2010, so it has almost been a year and two months since then ;;

(POSSIBLE SPOILER?)

Sept. 18

Original:
^{騎士麻煩大家再等一下了，我想要這集收尾，但遲遲收不完(掩面)，加上中間又修整了不少次，所以拖延了，真的很抱歉ˊˋ}

Translation:
"Knight"(t/n: Referring to LSK fandom) Please wait for a bit longer, I want this volume to end, but it cannot be ended that easily (face palm), plus there has been a lot of editing in the middle part, that's why it is delayed, I am really sorryˊˋ

------------

Sept. 20

Original:
^{雷瑟是冷面騙匠。冷著張臉騙人就是格外有說服力。}

Translation:
Lesus (t/n: Judgment knight) can easily convince someone with his straight face, even if he is lying.

Original:
^{最後一集打破格式，會有12章節OTZ.....(之前都是10章)，12聖騎士共同守則不算在內OTZ(再跪倒一次)........對於光是12個章節名就可以全改個五次的自己感到絕望，不過改到這一次，看起來挺滿意，應該會定案了。}

Translation:
The last volume will exceed the usual format, there will be 12 chapters OTZ.... (Usual volume only has 10 chapters), The" Introduction to Knight Theory" doesn't count! OTZ (falls down again)...... and about 12 chapter of the story all of them has been edited for almost 5 times makes me feel really disappointed, but up to this point, It looks pretty satisfying, maybe we will finalized the project soon.

Original:
^{騎士8節錄：「......等陽則緊跟在後，雖然威勢也不錯，不過他那張臉實在太搶戲，第一眼看到的永遠只有臉......」(遠目)這真不知是好是壞？}

Translate:
LSK8: [ ....Silent eagle followed closely behind, even though his spirit is very admirable, but that face of his is grabbing too much attention, the only thing you'll notice is his face....]
(Looking far away) Don't know if this is actually a good thing or not?

Sept. 21

Original:
^{格里西亞：「只有殺不死的，才能站在魔王的身旁。」}

Translate:
Grisia: "Those that are strong, are the only ones that can stand beside the demon lord."

-------------

Sept 22

Original:
^{偶爾也會喜歡有點彆彆扭扭的格里西亞。(格里西亞：只有偶爾嗎!!!!!我是你的主角啊!!!!)}

Translation:
Sometimes I really like the awkward Grisia. (Grisia: only sometimes?!!!!! but I am your main character!!!)

--------------

Sept. 26

Original:
^{大家安，今天也是充滿太陽的一天！外頭是太陽(燦笑)，工作也、也是太陽(OTZ......快讓我寫完吧，臭太陽。)}

Translate:
Hello everyone, Today is another sunny day! There is sun outside (smile), my work, is also about Sun (OTZ.... Hurry up and let me finish writing you, stupid Sun.)

Sept. 27

Original:
^{(拖稿的賠罪)騎士節錄：「放手」叫了幾次都沒用，我想想反正今天的目的之一就是要搶美女，索性伸手攬住她，讓情況看起來比較像是我擄了她，而不是她強抱我。}

Translate:
(My apologies for taking so long) Excerpts from LSK: ...."Let go!" It's useless no matter how many times you say it. Now that I think about it, my goal for today was to snatch up some babes, I'll just easily put my arms around her, I can make the situation look like I was the one that is abducting her, and not the other way around.

---------------

Original:
^{"節錄之填空題"愛麗絲皺了一下眉頭，說：「別殺等陽喔！」
「我不會殺他，可以用的屬下都那麼少了，還殺了他，其他人會累死的。」
她點了點頭：「不殺就好。」
見她無所謂的態度，我好奇了：「只要不殺死他，其他都隨我亂搞？」 愛麗絲大方的說：「只要不殺死等陽，要怎麼對付他都隨便你。」}

Translate
Alice frowned and said "Dont you dare kill Silent Eagle!"
"I won't kill him, there are only few useful subordinate that I can use here, If I kill him, the others will be exhausted."
She nodded "That's more like it."
Seeing her with a light hearted attitude, I curiously asked "I don't have to kill him, but the others I can do whatever?" Alice lavishly said "As long as you don't kill Silent eagle, you can deal with the other guys however you like."

Sept. 29

Original:
^{騎士節錄：「格里西亞你做男人做得真有夠失敗，屬下個個都泡到公主了，就你這個聖殿之首、堂堂的魔王陛下居然連個女僕也泡不到！」}

Translate
Excerpt from LSK: Grisia you fail so much being a guy! Even your subordinate can get a princess, and you, the spoke person of the God of Light can’t even get a maid!!

If some of the translation up there doesn't make sense, please be aware that most are sneak peaks or her thoughts on it... (even I can't understand some of them orz)

On the side note, after the endless scrolling on her update, one that particularly caught my eye was this entry on August:

^{偷偷問：如果我寫個BL故事，大家會想看嗎......(要出可能只會自費出版)，因為最近突然有個BL靈感閃過去，有點猶豫之後到底要不要來嘗試看看這類故事。(還是沒寫過的中國古代風啊!!!!不過應該會是架空世界~~(因為我的歷史早就變成歷屎了。))}

Translate:
Secretly ask: What if I release a BL story, will you guys read it?.... (I will probably release it using my own fund) Because I suddenly had the urge to write a BL story, but still hesitating if I really should try it out. (On top of that, it will be an oriental ancient Chinese story!!!! but it will probably end up like an alternate universe~~(because my history is really crappy.))
(t/n:"History" in Chinese is Li-shi, a world play of stool, she used 屎(shi) instead of 史 LOL!!)

And that's all for today!!
ps. LSK Volume. 8 of the novel will be the final release of this wonderful series!! ;;
Release date is still unknown... so fans are anticipating (and maybe sad at the same time)!

Till then,
