Today’s doodle is Hoaqin and Vicente. Although it may feel like the two have different personalities/styles, considering they became one body, you’d think they would have something in common, right? hehe. Since this amalgamate of White needs to be narrated together with the story of the Arie family for quite a while, it’s difficult to handle. In some ways, all characters in Tower of God have that kind of an aspect hehe. Some of these characters need a long time to see their conclusion, so it can be difficult at times.

​This may be a bit of a TMI, but a while back I had to take something called the Internet Civil Defense Training. Since it was just some online classes, I was playing it in the background without paying much attention as I was doing my work, when all of a sudden they threw a test at me at the end. Even without looking at the questions I panicked, not knowing how I would solve these problems hehe… I reached out to those who already did it, and they told me simply to just take another look at the problems because they’re not hard. So I did, and they were surprisingly easy questions. I realized then that ever since I stopped being a student, I’ve lived a life without tests. If I was still a student, I would have at least looked at it first to figure out how to solve the problem. I lost my ability to take written tests. That was what was on my mind.

Well, since I brought up the topic of tests… Many authors including myself think of the weekly releases as a weekly test. Every week, we get graded by our readers, and we have to take responsibility for our grades, ad nausium. This is something I haven’t gotten used to despite having done this for a while. Nor is it something I should resist either. Because of this, some days I feel afraid, some days I feel excited, some days I feel happy and excited. My emotions go through a lot of extremes. These days, above all else I just want to be able to do this work enjoyably with others, but despite having those thoughts, if you are a pro, you have a responsibility beyond having fun. If I do well, everyone gets to be happy. That’s why I should try to work harder to enjoy my work.

​And so another week ends. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter… I will keep working hard and come back next week.

Everyone, have a healthy and happy week. I hope you all wear warm clothes in this cold weather.

Thank you.
