It was a cruel night when the Translator, after hours of hard work, finally went to his home. Dinner with his wife was quiet - not a usual quiet, but the disturbing quiet. The Translator was the first to speak.

"So, my group is translating another manga adaptation of a light novel series. And they've put me in charge of translating it."

His wife beamed. "Well, isn't that great? I mean, who knows - you could get a real Sword Art Online on your ha-"

"It's an isekai series, but the twist is that the main character is always naked."

Ugly pause. The wife feigns a smile.

"That sounds like a... wonderful idea? I mean, clearly we'll see many unique plot threads and well-written charact-"

"I've seen it," spoke the Translator. "It's nothing but the same formulaic isekai my company has been posting for the last two years. The only difference is that the guy doesn't wear any clothing. That's it."

"But people will still buy it. And I'm sure people will still follow it just because it's an isekai. I mean, they're well-known for having horrible tas-"

The Translator, without a sound, raised his hand and struck his wife's face with a resounding slap. Sake spilled off of the counter onto the tatami mats - the mats paid for with that damned isekai money.
