Volume 12 afterword
The TV Anime of 『Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo no Dorei Majutsu』 had an immensely wonderful execution, and I truly spent a happy time on it. There were developments different from the novel, and I think that the readers were also able to enjoy it.
Now then, about the novel.
The Gelmedo Empire has made its entrance! Actually, it was planned to appear in a much later volume, but I somehow felt that it had to be now. It’s because putting in the usual standard foreshadowing, and beating up the previously announced opponent is boring. I would be happy if you were able to enjoy it.
For the next volume, I am thinking that I want to somehow put a conclusion to the war with the Empire, and there are various things to talk about like the now blonde Super Alicia, and the Royal Palace Chivalric Order that ran away.
I don’t know how much of the plot I can put in, but I would like to reach that point as soon as possible. I will be in your care.
『The 14 Year Old and the Illustrator』 (MF Bunko J) that Illustrator Mizoguchi Cage-sensei is also designing is in the middle of publication. It is a work comedy filled with the interactions and industry jokes of a 14 year old cosplayer and a pro illustrator. The comicalization through Kamelie-sensei is in the middle of popular serialization.
Here is a different topic while I am making advertisements.
There is a limited edition Drama CD that come with this volume. I was the one to write the script this time. Since I think that it came out well, by all means, please listen to it.
