Afterword

Hello, this is Nyun. I’m very happy to speak with you all once again.

The truth is, while I was in the process of revising this second volume, I suffered from acute cholangitis and needed surgery to have my gallbladder removed. It was announced on Shōsetsuka ni Narō that I was suffering from a stomach ulcer, but the true cause of my symptoms was my gallbladder. That’s why I’d like to use this afterword to deliver a message I’ve been wanting to share with everyone: If you have a problem, go see a doctor right away!

Fortunately, I was diagnosed quickly and it didn’t turn into an emergency, but I dread to think what might have happened if the problem hadn’t been discovered so quickly. That’s why I urge anyone feeling unwell to see a doctor as soon as possible.

I’d like to change the subject and talk a little about this volume of the novel. I really didn’t want to change the story in this volume, so it’s virtually identical to the version published online. On the other hand, the third volume that I’m writing right now (on November 11, 2015) will be very different from the outset. I’m sure it will surprise everyone, and I hope you’ll be able to enjoy a different world once again in the next volume.

If I let this afterword grow too long, it’ll cause problems, so I’d like to lay my pen down at this point. I’ve been working hard on volume 3, so please look forward to it.

I’ll see you all again in volume 3!!
