My Death Flags Show No Sign Of Ending – Chapter 116 (Part 2)
Hey everyone!
So I was waiting for the next chapter to come out to post this since the author said it might be in August, but it doesn’t seem like it’s gonna happen soon so I’ll just post this part now. Please read the note after the chapter to know how you can show your support to the author.
Anyway, here’s the chapter, I hope you’ll enjoy it!
Chapter 116 (Part 2)
【”Tangled up in something? Meaning?”】
【”When I went to visit again, that person had forgotten about being saved by you. Suddenly, the story became that they were attacked by monsters, fainted, and were carried to the hospital before they came to.”】
If that person’s memory was manipulated, it was probably through Justus’ doing.
However, Harold did not understand what would have been the meaning of doing that.
【”Ridiculous. I’m sure that person was just having hallucinations from being on the brink of death.”】
【”No way! That’s definitely not it!”】
【”What are you, a doctor? How would you know?”】
【”Because it was weird! That person didn’t just forget about being helped by you, that person completely forgot about the existence of Harold Stokes!”】
The problem was neither that the knight had a fuzzy memory nor a simple memory loss.
The knight had lost every memory regarding one single person. It was a strange occurrence.
Granted, maybe this could happen in nature in some outlying case, but, at least for Sid and Elen, it probably felt far too specific for Harold alone to be forgotten completely.
【”In the past, soon after you were sentenced to death, chief Cody told us “It’s not about whether you can believe in Harold, but whether you can believe in yourselves”. But even though I thought you were innocent, I didn’t believe in myself…!”】
【”It was the same for me. Even though you words were always snide, I knew you weren’t a bad guy… But I didn’t act on those thoughts.”】
Their feelings of regret were transmitted more than well. Even under the dim light of the bar, the tears building up in their eyes were clear to see.
Though Robinson wasn’t here, he too was probably blaming himself for not believing in Harold’s innocence, just like his two comrades.
Harold had not spent much time in the knight order, but he knew these three friends were very kind.
Therefore, he took it upon himself to speak and try to convey something along the lines of “Don’t worry about it”.
【”No matter what angle I look at this from…. You’re utter morons.”】
【”W-what? We’re sincerely apologizing to you over here!”】
【”And that’s why I’m saying you’re morons. What exactly are you apologizing for?”】
【”Well, obviously it’s because we wanted to believe in you but-…”】
【”Alright, let’s imagine a world where you’d have declared my innocence loud and clear… What would that have changed? Do you seriously believe the likes of you could have done anything about that jury’s sentence?”】
Sid and Elen did not answer. They stayed quiet.
Even if they had intervened as they wished and gotten all the knights of the order to speak against Harold’s sentence, the results would have been the same.
After all, it had already been determined from the start, before any deliberation, that Harold would get the death penalty.
【”While I’m at it, I’ll let you in on something. The removal of that death sentence was always the plan. It was set up from the get go.”】
【”【”Huh?”】”】
Sid and Elen reacted the way Harold wanted.
Of course, this was a lie.
The whole series of events after the battle in the Bertis forest had been completely out of his expectations.
But even so――
【”I’m still alive. Isn’t that proof enough for the dirt you have for brains?”】
Harold laughed with a mocking tone.
He laughed because he was used to dealing with problems this way.
He laughed to hide his heart-wrenching gratitude towards the kindness of these two comrades, who had been dealing with regrets for years, wanting to apologize to a lost cause like Harold Stokes.
He could only hide those feelings.
After all, ‘Harold Stokes’ would not show gratitude in such a situation.
And so, to reward their kindness, Harold used his usual method instead.
【”Heh, how laughably arrogant of you to assume you might have been able to change something back then.”】
【”Arrogant?! You’re the one person I don’t want to hear that from!”】
【”Being arrogant means putting on airs out of pride. Unlike you, I am not arrogant, I do not put on airs. I behave to the level of my abilities.”】
【”I’m pretty sure that manner of thinking is arrogant enough on its own.”】
Harold’s statement was arrogant indeed, and that meant everything was fine.
That meant there was no need to feel guilty.
Through his behavior, Harold was emphasizing on the fact that he was still the same, and that worrying about him was meaningless.
【”Damn it! Still as haughty and domineering as ever!”】
【”Haaa… Where are we going to pour all our pent up worries and regrets now…”】
【”At times like these, you gotta drink, Sid! Harold will take care of the tab!”】
【”Hey, what do you think you’re-…”】
【”I don’t care! You’re a noble, you should pay for these types of things like it’s nothing!”】
【”…That’s right! Alright, drinks are on Harold, today we’re gonna gorge ourselves all night!”】
【”…Don’t you have any shame?”】
Well, in all truth, Harold liked their current behavior better than those gloomy faces they’d been making earlier.
Given everything he had done to save their lives, the one thing he wanted in return was for them to live their lives with smiles.
The timing of this reunion worried him, but he still hoped they would somehow calmly go on with their lives without raising more death flags…
【”Oh, I forgot to tell you! Once we’re done with this mission, we’ll be getting married! Where should we send you the invitation?”】
【”I mean, we were your seniors at one point, you wouldn’t miss our wedding, would you~?”】
【”Are you kidding me? Shut your damn mouths.”】
Harold’s hostile words were not directed towards the marriage invitation.
Rather, if he had to say, it was directed at the act of getting married itself.
(『When this battle is over, let’s get married…』is one of the deadliest death flags there is! )
Apparently, Harold’s bad feeling was on point.
In a certain sense, Ellen and Sid were just as loved by death flags as Harold himself.
Another issue had just mercilessly set itself upon Harold’s already full plate.
Translator’s note: So, as usual, here are the tweets to like.
This tweet is from a fan, not the author. It’s a handmade knit Harold Stokes and it looks really good ^^
Izumi-sensei’s response:
Now the author’s tweets:
Here’s a tweet where he’s sharing the latest chapter of the RAW of the manga
Here he’s answering one of you guys, a French fan, and basically saying he likes seeing that there are readers from all over the world
Here he says that he’s happy to see everyone’s support as he has been receiving a lot of tweets thanks to a lot of you going out of your way to show your support, and that’s awesome!
I also get mentioned on this one, which is pretty cool 😀
Anyway, that’s it for today! Hopefully the next chapter will come soon, I honestly have no information about it at the moment, but as soon as it comes out, you’ll now.
Have a wonderful week!

Ooh, nice. Thanks again for your work!
Now that’s heartwarming. Let’s keep supporting the author~
is the manga going well?
So far, it seems to be
I don’t know about others, but honestly I don’t even touch these until both parts are out.
the link to the raw manga is weird, it wont bring me to the My Death Flags manga but simply the homepage? and when i try and click on Death Flags or other manga it just refreshes the homepage

But the app is not available in my country
😭

Aye mate, that’s the case. They get better revenue through the apps advertisement, so it makes sense for them.
It isn’t broken, they just region blocked it.. so you’ll only be able to access it with VPN or if you’re in Japan. You can also use the MangaBox app. I heard that apparently too many oversea fans flooded the manga website that they had to set this region block up 😅
If im not mistaken the raws currently already more than 9
I tried this advice
Using vpn (proton vpn to be specific its free btw)
And manage to read the raws
The raws i read was at chapter 12 and really cant wait for chapter 13
I got the same feels like reading the novel at chapter 12 😍👍
You beautiful person, thank you.
Ohh No there’s no more to read *sad noises*
Thanks for another chapter, and how I like to see this interaction with the author himself, someone who is literally on the other side of the world for me, but I can still appreciate his work, and even communicate and see that my support can reach him, so thanks again Defiring, it’s not just a translation, it’s about influencing lives ..
Thanks
No Twitter 😢😢
Great chapter. Side characters sure need Harold to save them from their death flags, come on he’s got tons of his own. I mean the title itself is a death flag. At this rate Erica is gonna slaughter him with a laser beam and later contemplate why did he hold back…. Did he hated me so much that he rather die by my hands then live on his own ?
Man erica is kinda pissing me off.

Eso suena tan real… Si harold tiene una dulcura punzante(tsun deré)… Me da mucha risa como erika por su culpa tenga esa deriva tipo yandere, de hecho la batalla contra el grupo del héroe me dio mucha risa(aunque se supone es tragica)
Thanks for the chapter!
Oh! The biggest death flag unfurled… not for Harold.
I think one of Harold’s biggest problems is that the people in this world don’t even have the concept of death flag. Despite constantly being skewered by them.
How painful their flag invitation must have been for our MC to hear?
Lol
Those two? Damn… I didn’t expect that. So cute
Thanks for the chapter! ^^
This poor man can’t take a break! XD
And thanks for their great work to the author! 🙂
Like!! Thank you for publishing this awesome article.
Thank you ever so for you article post.
These are actually great ideas in concerning blogging.
Author is a cute, a CUTE
As an English learning person who enjoys translations from other languages i very much enjoy these stories even though i struggle with it both you and the writer make it enjoyable.
thank you defiring, honestly i’m glad its you who connect us with author. all credits is belong to you.
Thnaks for the chapter and good job with reviving the novel
Thanks for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter!
Thanks for the chapter. Keep up the good work.
Let’s see…i have this thought
“What if Harold got drunk and his mouth got loose and said what he really thinks?”can that happen?idk it’s just my rambling.
Thanks for the chapter
Thank you very much for the translation!
Could someone please post the link so I can say a few words to the author? I think I lost the original link…
Thanks

It’s been four months already from the time last chapter’s raw had been posted, I just finished reading and imaginening the wait is painful.
Well, hopefully there will be a new chapter soon
I binge read up until here.
Agony.
It’s okay though, I can wait! How often does this author post? Any encouragement I can give?
Well, you can on twitter. He just published the digitized version of the manga, too.
Thanks
the manga brought me here. finished the novel in like 2 weeks
No No No No No!
This can’t be happening!
I caught up already?
Pls send me to the future.
Any news for this novel?
The story is starting to get interesting.
Especially about fate shenanigans, which people saved by him is starting a new death flag.
Also the villain is starting to outsmart Harold’s game knowledge, like true evil mad genius.
But I’m starting to lose hope when the author doesn’t post anything in 5 months.
That’s the longest time for author not post anything.
It feels like he will forget his own stories, and end it.
Or encouragement will become pressure in different kind of sense.
Dropped?
Sorry, I looked up at the comments. Didn’t realize it’s a client side issue not a translator one.
No problem, it happens.
Thanks for the chapter!
i can’t believe… a new chapter is out!
Holy moly!
Hey bro! The author just posted 117 😁
Hey bro, after a relatively long time, the Author finally updated it 😭😁
Where did he post it ?
Syosetu
When will the new chapter 117 be released
when chapter 118 comes out
The posting of the chapter has to match the publications of the author so as to advertise his work. That being the case, the optimal time for the post has to be chosen.
Ohhhhh that makes sense. Thanks for letting us know!
Pls ELI5. I don’t understand, brain dumb
where r uuuuuuu ;-;
hey, going by your reply to someone else’s comment, when’s the author going to publish the next chapter? And are you already done with the translation, since your last comment here makes it seem like you’ve made some progress already on the next chapter?
Basically, I just need to proofread it. You will probably get it next week.
Thanks for the good work

Thank you for your hardwork! I’ve really fallen in love with this story.

thanks for all ur hard work and the authors hard work as well
It’s 2021 and still no new chapter, I hope the author is doing okay😭
I have no knowledge of japanese so I hope the manga is going well
By the same, it seems Tokino Sora from Hololive follows the author on Twitter, that’s pretty amazing
I have read all now. I finished it all in 3 days. Waiting for updates… I came from the manga now i am addicted
Hello, are you still continuing translating this novel?
I am new to this website and judging by the comment here it has been a while since the last update.
I am not the author
Hi !
First thing, Thank you for the translation of Death flag ! I discover the manga and take a like to it so i just try the novel and… Here i am after a week 😅 i may have rush it a little too fast…
Secondly Thank you for all your effort toward the author 😊 i do read a lot of translate novel but i didn’t see that much translator who try to help that author that much. So thank you too for helping us to keep in touch with the author, i would have never be able to find him on tweeter without you ☺️
(😅 I hope my message is good because i’m not use to whrite in english… Well to put it simply it’s : Thank you for everythings !)
It’s 2021. OMG, looks like the death flag happened and the novel is dead
“Basically, I just need to proofread it. You will probably get it next week.”
did something happen? sorry if I sound impatient.
Me half-dying haha
I’ve proofread the chapter, but I still don’t have an established list of links etc… to share with you guys, and I’m frankly in no state to write anything
Oh dear! I hope you are recoverying! While I am, of course, terribly sad to hear you’ve been ill, I’d glad you’re still with us. God bless!
I miss Erica..
Anyways thanks for the translation as always!! can’t wait for the next chapter
I powered through this from Chapter 1 or now in about 4 days and all I have to say is…
I just want someone to do what’s best for Harold. It’s kind of nice that they “want to respect his wishes” but after seeing how many times they’ve discovered he was doing good while masquerading as a villain, I wish Erica would just admit her feelings to him. Perhaps I’ve forgotten something in the marathon reading sessions but I guess I’m just sad to see them hurting themselves and eachother when it seems so easy to at least alleviate some of the pain they all feel.
either way, it’s been a fun ride. Hopefully this is reaching a meaningful and satisfying conclusion soon-ish. I’d like to see Harold and Erica be happy together soon.
Thanks for translating!
For those asking about next chapter. It’s available through Defiring patreon. It’ll probably remain that way until next chapter is released. The last few releases by the author were from June and then November so… It might be awhile for another update.
Here’s to hoping for more updates and an eventual fulfilling ending to the series! CHEERS!
Are this novel will not countinued ?
I have waited
thanks for the trans >.<
It appears that they have either stopped uploading or they’ve stopped translating, since they haven’t updated since the end of August. It’s a shame to see a good novel like this end like this.
The manga is being published, which often times puts a cap on novel updates. Same happened for a lot of novels.
So uhh did this get axed? There haven’t been any chapters since August.
Please tell me you just stopped translating it oh God
Thanks for the chapter, and I still not see any update
Thanks for this chapter.
Still waiting for the next chapter.
Damn i read through all in like a week after the latest manga chapter and now feel empty hope you are still working on these tls
Any of yall know what happened to the chapters after 116? syosetsu only reaches chapter 117, do yall know where i can find the rest?
What happened to the chapters after 116? syosetsu only gets up 117, do yall know where i can find the rest?
Thanks for translating. I love this novel, too bad it is slow update.
