Afterword

Greetings. Ameko Kaeruda here.

I would like to thank you all for reading A Lily Blooms in Another World.

I started uploading to the big web novel site Shōsetsuka ni Narō a few years ago. One day when I checked the rankings, I noticed the word “villainess.”

I knew what that meant: Oh yeah, this is yuri for sure... As it turned out, I was completely wrong.

How strange, I thought, I can so clearly picture a yuri comedy where the spurned villainess falls in love with the main heroine and they run away together.

Time passed, and I held onto my conviction that the villainess exists solely to live happily ever after with the main heroine. I am so pleased to have been able to turn this idea into a book and have it distributed by the yuri specialists at GL Bunko.

This is entirely thanks to the online readers for spotting my work in the digital sea and cheering me on, GL Bunko, Shio Sakura for decorating the story with her beautiful illustrations, and last but not least, you for choosing to read this book. You have my heartfelt gratitude.

I will continue to devote myself to bringing you more stories and more yuri.

By the way, the stew cooked by putting a hot stone in a bucket and the milk soup that show up in the book are Ameko favorites. I guess I just like soup... Long live soup.

But we’re getting sidetracked.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed following Miyako and Fuuka’s adventures, big and small, and reading a story of two women’s love-fueled escape in another world.

Now then, until the next time we meet... Farewell!
