NOTE: Eesiaemer solved this in about 3-4 hours. I honestly did not think anyone would get it that fast. The translated text is below on page 2 of this thread. He chose to pass on the reward and his first pick of who should get it, picked a bonus chapter on the Power of Love.

Author’s Note: You remember way back when in the author’s note when I said I had come up with something evil as an author. Well this is it. The first person to translate this and reply to this thread with the correct text will be granted the ability to request a single bonus chapter of their choosing.

1) No hints will be given, don’t ask or PM

2) There are a couple proper nouns, you will not be asked to translate those correctly

3) All guesses must be posted on this thread, if you fail then it helps your competitors

4) I judge at my own discretion, all decisions are final, no appeals allowed, complaints may be burnt in the pits of the Abyss or fed to a worm

5) The time limit is until the MC is no longer in possession of the book, which may happen at any time

6) If no one can solve this then I will NOT be posting the solution, I am evil, MUAHAHAHAHA

7) Feel free to team up (not with me), the winner is the person who posts the answer

8) Ask your people to help you, if you don’t have people then ask the internet, if you don’t have internet well then you are out of luck

9) This is super juicy in terms of plot, like a 10/10 and is critical to understanding things. So it is not a cookbook or something pointless

10) There is no partial credit or bonus points for showing your work, this is PASS/FAIL

11) Good luck, your time starts….NOW! Or when this was first posted so stop reading this really long sentence that isn’t helping you and is just to delay you that extra couple of seconds when you could be solving this problem and you are still reading this run on sentence that never seems to end and just keeps going and going kind of like that song that never ends or beer on the wall, so this is really a long sentence and an example of how a run on sentence takes on a life of its own and stretches out to impossible lengths without really saying anything.

12) Ok….one hint since I am feeling in the giving spirit, don’t ask for more. There are two methods I can think of to solve this. The first is the hard brute force way which will take a while. The second is the intuitive way. The intuitive way can solve 40% to 70% of this in about 3 minutes, BUT if your stats are low then it will be difficult to cut to the solution.
