Dearest readers,

This is the last day of chapters before going premium.

I'm truly sad and regretful that I am not a far richer man, one who can afford to write as a hobby and provide all you, dearest readers, with free content and free chapters and free stories...

To recap, I'm a simple man, 31 years old, living in a 3rd world country Malaysia.

Well, the rest of the stuff below is a repeat of the earlier written announcement to all of you, my dear readers, supporters and, dare I say it - friends!

I really can't believe that this activity I had started without much expectation would turn out to even be able to earn a small, tiny amount of income!

I am just really, really blessed to have had you as my readers, companions and supporters!

A BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG THANK YOU to everyone!

Thank you!!!

***Recap of the earlier announcement***

I'm a simple man, 31 years old, living in a 3rd world country Malaysia.

It's a bit better off than some other South East Asian countries.

At least here a fresh graduate can make between USD300 - 500 a month!

But that leaves us all with a very, very hard life.

I have been working full time for 8 years and just got married last year.

But it's been a struggle financially. My wife is also working full time and her health has been suffering due to the long hours.

...I swore to find a way so my wife won't have to work and suffer anymore.

I tried Uber, Grab. I tried transcription work. I did some freelance work but was paid nothing for my efforts.

But I found that it was so hard to support and paid so little - roughly getting USD100 a month from the part time work.

Finally, in September, I read a novel here on WN and thought, "Maybe... Just maybe... I could be a writer too...?"

I started and failed terribly in the first 2 weeks with just 2 readers!

But I didn't give up, because my wife and my family and my future child deserve more than I am giving them right now.

...I want them to have the best in life. Or at least, a life where they don't have to worry daily about their needs being met, where my child will have a mother who is with him/her to play, learn, laugh and grow up together with.

I don't want to see my wife coughing, stressed, unable to sleep from worrying about work, her health and her life.

I... Really hope... That you'll still be with me on this journey.

I also... Really do understand that, not everyone will want to still follow this novel. I know it's just a simple and humble novel, not a superstar that can command hundreds of dollars a month.

But even if it's just 50 dollars, 100 dollars a month, I'll be writing my best for you, for my wife and for my family.

Finally, the announcement that I know you expected for awhile.

Desolate Mage will be going Premium on 1 Dec.

In anticipation of that, look forward to the conclusion of the competition arc, where Lars displays the fullness of his might in an epic battle of Herculean proportions.

Last but not least...

Thank you for reading. Truly, truly thank you.
