Jeez, everyone overreacted to my comment. I'm well aware that Zero intends to continue translating DxD and will do so until the end of the series, as well as his interest in translating lesser known LNs. However, from what I've seen, he usually only does teasers of other works (excuse me if I'm wrong), and would never break off mid-translation of DxD chapter in order to translate an entire volume of another work like that. At the very least who would have pushed through to the end of the chapter he was working on.

And reading Zero's comments as to why he's suddenly working on Encore, he stated that he was getting tired of Ishibumi's writing style and needed to change it up. This, in spite of the fact that he'd just had what amounts to a several-months-long "break" from translating the series due to his personal crisis (yes, I realize those were special circumstances).

Hence, after considering his above comments and actions, my simple point was that it is far less likely that Zero would be interested in translating another of Ishibumi's works (Slashdog) anytime soon. Even more so since he wasn't particularly enthusiastic about the original version.
