The name that has been translated as "Sauri", I believe "Sauli" might be more accurate.
My reasons are
1) I know Japanese doesn't really have separate sounds for R/L the same way English does, which is why they can get mixed up; and
2) this manga already has names that are Finnish - ie. Mikkola & Merikanto are both Finnish surnames (and Orva's surname, 'Makarainen' sounds like a Finnish word for this tiny insect (mäkäräinen) + '-nen' is also a common ending for a surname). "Aini" is def more Japanese-sounding, but I'd like to mention that "Aino" is a super common female name in Finland. "Sauli" is also a relatively common name for a man here, which is why I could see it being the correct answer as to if the letter is supposed to be R or L.
Otherwise I might attribute it to the translator's choises on how they spell the names in English, but considering how many other names there are that are so Finnish, I don't think it's a coincidence at that point, but likely the author's intent/source of inspiration ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Hhhgh, I can see potential in this but the way the visual artist is trying to tell the story just... feels off. They clearly are not used to drawing this kind of genre, and it really shows. They also seem inexperienced considering just how much telling they're doing instead of showing (tbf this is an issue with a lot of webtoons, ppl seem to barely know how to use panels without any words to tell you what the characters might be thinking/feeling), and it just makes it feel like there's a constant chatter in the story with no breaks - especially at the beginning chapters.
It kinda sucks. I think this has interesting elements to it, but the art style just feels off-putting for this story and genre specifically, and it made many parts feel boring even. If this was a typical apocalypse story, the important side characters would be drawn with more personality for recognition, but instead they all look the same - just a background NPC who isn't a main character so it doesn't matter if they all look the same. Boo!
The framing of many panels are quite boring as well, and there's a lack of dynamics in it (poses, framing, etc). This would be fine if this was just a high school romance story, but it's not. I think another artist would've been much better to bring visual interest to this story, as it currently lacks that. At the very least, I hope this artist learns and improves quickly.
I don't want to call every single "robotic" character who strictly follows the rules and can be both perceptive and/or dense about social stuff autistic but also like... as one myself, can't help but see the past me in beom like the whole noticing your feelings but not being able to place them, thinking they're something else, "this is how x supposed to be no?" NOT SURE IF I'M EXPLAINING IT RIGHT but yeahhh his inner thoughts are soo similar to my past self (with my first crush in my late teens). Except I've always enjoyed reading romance since I was a child so like. I had an idea. But it still took me over half a year to realise what it was (and few months before I realised I even had the thought "i wanna kiss her" and just went "????" in my head, like i can't make this up it was bad).
Anyway yeah lol. Fuck the abuse pos ex, fuck taehyun's brother, lowkey fuck beom's parents ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Damn, I really hope they can become a family. Even if MC's almost an adult, having people older than you be in a similar position to and show similar care to parents, is important no matter the age. Or well, not important in the sense that it's mandatory, but important that it's awesome if someone has that support system.
Maybe not close enough to be exactly "family", but still close and in friendly terms. That'd be really nice for all of them, I think.
can someone give me a summary, can be detailed, about the rest of ch46 bc my brain can't handle reading it myself I couldn't continue after he took off his robe it just got too much (my brain issues, I've just always been extremely bad with this kind of stuff)
He keeps advancing thinking she's pretending because theres an assassin. She asks him if he likes her and he says of course I do still thinking she's acting. He picks her up and puts her on the bed. He planned to pretend to kiss her then shake the bed a few times so it seemed like they were having sex and the assassin would go away. He gets on top and she's super flustered and mentions the penalty fee from their contract. He then realizes she's not pretending and the chapter ends with him wondering why she's acting weird
Tysm
I know it's supposed to be all dramatic and serious but I can't help but to laugh andnnfng I can't take it seriously
Heard spoilers of her all the way back when the manhwa started (nothing much, just that she's gonna appear and it's going to be awesome and lovely) and I'm so happy to finally see her!! She's going to be the best mum for Leo, haha ヾ(☆▽☆)
To start things off, I have not read the novel myself. I'm simply putting a spoiler warning since my comment has to do with them.
I remember ages ago commenting here something about Hoyeol and Granfell + their worlds being connected, wondering if Grandfell is truly only Hoyeol's creation as he says, but instead they share some other cross-dimensional bond (ie. via souls) that allows their fusion to be what it is. I just remember someone replying to me ans saying nope, Hoyeol did create all of Granfell's stuff. Could someone shine some light on it?
I personally hope there is more specialty to it, as if Arcana the game was supposedly so popular, no way was Hoyeol the only cringe teen doing the 'epic and cool' OC stuff.

Nope, Hoyoel did NOT create Granfel. Granfel is an Arcanian that Hoyeol simply documented, but he didn't/couldn't document everything, because in the novel it was explicitly shown the Hoyeol didn't know everything Abt Granfel.
Also if you're reading the novel pack some tissues and be ready to cry. For some reason comedy just can't stay comedy
hiding my reply too just in case ~

Damn okay! Thank you for telling me this, I was so disappointed by the other comment ages ago ╥﹏╥ tbh seeing you use the word document, maybe there was a translation misunderstanding happening there.
Do we know of the are others from Hoyeol's world who documented Arcanians? Or did all players do that? (Makes me think of the scene where the barbarians from Arcana recognised the red-headed barbarian player) is there then a specific reason as to why it seems like only Hoyeol and Granfel are the way they are? (Ie. Granfel's personality kind of taking over, them being connected but still separate)
Answering your questions:
As far as I know there are no other players that documented arcanians other than hoyeol.
The reason the guys at frost recognized teamin is because back when arcana was a game he spent a lot of time with the "NPC's" and built relationships with them.

The reason Grandfell and Hoyeol are the way they are is because of two reasons:
1. The others assimilated with theirs avatars in game is because they are AVATARS, they have no other identity. But as I've said Grandfell isn't an avatar he's an arcanian with his own life and backstory.
2. This one is pretty big and complicated (you have to experience it on your own) so I won't say it, but them being in one body is actually Grandfell's wish. He did it to save Hoyeol.
Oh shit okay!! Thanks for answering all my questions. I have the novel saved, so when I'm able to, I'll definitely give it a read ^^
You got an Epub? If so can you share ? I've been searching so long for an Epub of this novel
Uhhh I'm guessing you mean english publishing maybe? The one I have, I happened to stumble upon it while seeing what other series (comics) they had on utoon.net, I haven't tried reading it yet so I don't know how it is ^^;
I thought that Lee hoyeol is his reincarnation or something
So they really 2 different people
So will they in one body forever?
No, they'll seperate in the future
So lee hoyeol will no longer have granfell power?
Spoilers
No he will still have his levels and abilities as those were not Grandfells. Grandfell has a seperate ability which Hoyeol accesses through [Celestial Infant Solitude] that is the power that yuder will no longer have
So hoyeol hair color will no longer white? And his real personality will back?
