As hard I’ve tried I’ve been unable to locate a single copy of this light novel or even a fan translation. What brought me to it was the authors second novel series “ Woof Woof Story_ I Told You to Turn Me Into a Pampered Pooch, Not Fenrir!”.
There are 7 volumes published and translated by Yen Press. And if you have any familiarity with translated light novels you’d have heard of Yen Press as they consistently publish the best written/ edited light novels. I’m not sure how much that has to do with the source material versus that of the translator and/or editor, but I’m ... leaning towards the later when it comes to how well written a light novel is. Yen Press has yet to disappoint me, they’re simply a fantastic publisher.

Back to the authors follow up series “Woof Woof Story_ I Told You to Turn Me Into a Pampered Pooch, Not Fenrir!”, I’d easily give it 8/10 or higher. That is if you enjoy cute stories with lovable characters doing heroic deeds within a world created by an author with much promise for the future. I’ve reread the series 3 times now and for me and light novels that’s very rare indeed. In most cases with light novels I usually don’t make it past the 3rd volume unless they’re truly impressive and engaging. This one I read from 1 to 7, from start to finish. So if you think the limited criteria I mentioned may peek your interest I’d recommend reading the 1st volume and see if it’s to your tastes.

I’d just love it if a publisher would publish this authors first work but given it was originally published in 2017, I doubt there’s much hope.

A fantastic series.! Best of all you can easily watch it on YouTube for free. (on what I believe to be an official YouTube channel for the Chinese video streaming giant - BiliBili).

On YouTube it’s title is “Soulmate Adventures” and it follows two female lead characters on their journey. It could easily be called a Wuxia style story but unlike most, this one has women heroes (which reminds me of that absolutely superb movie “House of Flying Daggers”. The cinematography & the action scene choreography is stunning & won lots of awards, If you haven’t seen it, then u must).

Now back to ... this story. I don’t want to give too much away except to say they’re on a journey and they end up in lots of precarious situations that require them to fight there way out using martial arts and magical skills. It’s loads of fun, truly exciting and the perfect Donghua for any newcomers to Chinese anime.
