Message from Noah: I hope you're enjoying the new chapters! More are on the way this week, so stay tuned to the website for updates.
I'm also working on a new section featuring VIP . This initiative is meant to help protect sof the website's content, since a few sites have been copying everything I publish-even my messages.
In the near future, I'll introduce a subscription model that will grant access to all these VIP . But e don't worry-free content will still be available. For example, if we release 10 , 6 will remain free while 4 will be VIP.
The idea behind the VIP is not only to prevent other websites from copying everything, but also to thank the people who support this project and help us keep the website running. I truly appreciate the kind messages you sendon Whatand your constant support-thank you for being part of this community. Lastly, my goal is to publish 1,000 , and I hope you, dear reader, will continue to enjoy this website along the way. God loves you, and Noah wishes you all the best. (=~=)/
