Is just author letting out some steam. He likes to mess with his fans and he is usually very overworked. He doesn't support piracy(no author ever does). In japan, the culture relies heavily on copy rights and selling hard copies. Which is why even their music industry relies on selling cd's, the novels on books and manga's. Digital isn't really their thing and most don't care about the western audience. Author has a lot of novels authors as friends so he really don't like how piracy is killing the industry. Especially if a fan is stupid enough to post the pirated version just a few days after the orginally release of the book. Now that would piss off any author no matter how much the fans say they love his novels.

For me i don't mind reading some fan tl's, but i do think they are going overboard by formatting it in all kind of files. Pdf, epub, audio books etc. Is everywhere. And then the idiots acutally show it off to the author to boast by posting it on his twitter or webnovel page. Author probably did it in order to spite them and say he is ending it. For me i think the books are taking too long anyway. One year 1 volume. I might be a old man before i ever see the ending if this keeps up. I rather he finish around 18-20. Even the author would be burned out by his work.
