Author\'s Note & Team\'s Messages

Hello, this is Mokma[1]

Damn Reincarnation, which started serialization on the 17th of August, 2020, had finally come to an end. There have been 625 chapters over the past three years. Among all my serialized novels, it is the second longest, following Desire....

While I was writing the novel, there were many times when I felt disappointment and regret, but more often than not, I was satisfied that I did everything that I wanted to do. Of course, many of my readers may think that I should have done a bit less.

In any case, thank you for joining me on this long journey of 625 chapters. This is already my eighth time ending a novel, but I always have trouble figuring out what to say every time I have to write a review of the ending.

So, just like I have done up until now, I will talk about a few things that I didn’t include in the novel.

The feeling I got while writing Damn Reincarnation is that I wanted to write a happy ending. I wanted to make the often-mentioned line in the novel, “We deserve to be happy,” come true. Since they suffered through so much to save the world, it was only natural that they deserved happiness.

Let’s go with a happy ending, is what I decided. So, I discarded most of the tragic storylines that I had planned. I had originally planned to include more tragic and gruesome scenes related to Kristina and Anise, but I threw them all away. I allowed Anise, who I was planning to have ascend to the heavens, to remain in the normal world. And I also kept Noir. While I might have left a prettier image if she had died, I eventually leaned toward Sienna’s opinion on that decision.

So, no one around the protagonist ended up dying. Having written this story for so long, my preference would have been to have killed off a few of the main and supporting characters midway, but this time, no one truly died.

As for Ciel... ahem, I believe my plans for her were inadequate. I first thought of Ciel as a young lady who had just become an adult and was loved by everyone. So, I thought it would only be appropriate for such a young lady to cry and cling to him after being rejected by her first love. Could I have somehow written her slightly better??? I guess my abilities were just too lacking. If I went back and had to write that scene again, I would try to make her emotions resonate slightly clearer.

While writing the protagonists, Hamel and Eugene, I wanted to give them the feeling of being burdened by the inescapable ghosts of the past. Whether it was their present or their future, they were all shaped by their past failures and regrets.... But as I was creating their characters, I even ended up digging out a past life of a past life. I feel relieved but also regretful because I think I’ve written all of the stories and scenes I wanted to write about Eugene in these 625 chapters. There’s nothing more that I want to do, but I feel like I could have done it better.

It might be because, as a writer, I am nowhere close to perfection, so I always have many regrets about my work whenever I finish a novel. However, I think it\'s fortunate that the number of things I regret has decreased compared to when I finished my first novel. I think that if I keep writing my stories all the way to their ends like this, I will eventually be able to write a story that doesn’t leave me with any regrets.

Allow me to drink a toast to myself for all the hard work I’ve put into this novel.

Thank you to all those readers who followed along with me. And for Gaegrim[2], who helped by providing me with illustrations whenever I needed them. All my thanks and love. To all those readers who wrote reviews on the community site every day, saying that Damn Reincarnation is great, to those who left their comments every day, and to those who drew fan art of my story, I love you all.

I plan to write something about possession for my next work. I’ve written about regression and reincarnation, but I’ve never written about possession. It will probably be a mix of game and possession... and if possible, I would also like to add some martial arts. And maybe even mix in some elements from the Heavenly Demon genre as well.

I don’t know when I will start my next work, but with my personality, I won’t be resting for too long.... I think I will probably start sometime before February at the very latest.

Today is the Lunar New Year. Happy New Year to everyone. I would also like to thank everyone for their New Year\'s best wishes.

Also, please make sure to take a look at my next work. I’ll be sure to do even better this time around....

Thank you very much; I love you all!

Hello to all the readers and fans of DR! Whether you’re reading this in 2024 or 2124, congrats, you made it to the end!

As all things do, DR must also come to an end, but it’s been one heck of a journey to get here. A big thank you to the author for providing us with this wonderful series, to Yojj for making sure we don’t stray off the path, OBW for being a great teammate, Momo for being the best editor anyone could ask for, and to you, for sticking through 600+ chapters and making it to the end!

Please continue to give WW your love and support, and we’ll be seeing you in other novels!

OBW:

Hello to the lovely readers of DR! Thank you for accompanying us on this wild journey through Eugene’s life. I hope that our work has brought you both joy and satisfaction, bringing you laughter when you were feeling down and hope when you were facing your own challenges in life.

I have to give my thanks to Wuxiaworld for giving me the opportunity to bring this great story to a wider audience. I also owe a lot to Yojj, who has been an understanding and caring supervisor even during the harder times. Dan and Namu, my fellow translators, deserve a lot of thanks and credit for being able to bring this book to its satisfying conclusion, and we couldn’t have done it without our editor Momo, whose skill and work ethic have been an inspiration to me.

Our favorite characters may have finally reached their happy endings, but just like how they have a future that now lies outside the pages of this book, we also have our own futures to get back to, having grown richer from meeting them. I hope to see some of you again in the future, in whatever future book I end up translating.

Momo:

Hello, hello, hello! What a long ride it has been, a happy one but definitely a long one. Writing the ending post always feels bitter-sweet, but here we are.... When I was first presented with this novel, I was pleasantly surprised at how the story hooked me, and I hope that’s the case with you, too. From then, Eugene and his companions have made us laugh, cry, feel frustrated, and wonder how things will end. I hope the novel has brought you joy and courage by escaping to Eugene’s world and his adventures, if and when needed.

DR has one of the best teams I have worked with. I had two amazing translators, OBW and Dan, who brought life to the story, and an amazing manager, Yojj, who was more than supportive and accommodating when needed. It was a pleasure to work with them. I enjoyed working on this novel so much that it didn’t feel like work. ?? Though, I have to say, OBW and Dan never gave me any spoilers, even when I pestered them. Lol.

Finally, thank you for supporting the novel, either by championing it, by commenting, or just by recommending it to your friends. It means a lot to us. While DR has ended, we will have other novels coming out soon, so see you all there! Take care.

Can’t believe the end of DR? Not ready to be thrown into another world empty-handed?

Don’t worry! You’ve got a regressor blacksmith who can make everything for you. Look for Lee Se-Hoon in The Regressor Can Make Them All. He’ll show you his amazing collection of creations and heroes!

Maybe... maybe you’ve already said goodbye to DR and are now searching for a new world to explore. Join Sword Emperor Yeon Mu-Hyeok in The Sword Emperor Transmigrates. He promises the action you crave as he takes on a brand-new world.

And if you\'ve already read both of those, then hold onto your horses because we have another coming out very soon. Just like your adventure in Wuxiaworld doesn\'t end with the end of DR, death isn’t the end for Kim Gong-Ja either. Find him in SSS-Class Revival Hunter!
