Hi, how have you been doing? I hope you've been having a fantastic day so far. Thank you for reading so far. I genuinely appreciate your guy's comments and even some of the criticism. As you might have noticed, I have been slowing down regarding updates, for which I apologize. My wrist is still not fully healed, but that's not it.

I have been reading my notes more than anything and talking with my headrest if I should continue pushing forward. While the novel has received amazing people who like the story so far, some of the DMS and emails I receive are starting to get to me.

It's alright. I will not drop any time soon and already have the following timeline of events planned out. Now we are in ancient Enginheim. Maybe this world is the same as the Aaron world; who knows ;D I won't confirm any suspicions.

I know you guys have been waiting to hear about Naofumi since I introduced them, so I have great news. Most of volume 3 will be about Naofumi Sama ;D Buckle up! We are in for a ride! We are about to find out the origins of X? Perhaps.

Now, I do want to clarify a couple of things that may have you confused. Like a recent "mistake" I have been reminded of. "How does the Palladium work if all magicules around Anabel are destroyed?" Simple answer, reader. The Palladium does not react to magic; rather, it reacts to Anabel's soul points, though she doesn't know it yet.

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

SP and MP are not the same, even if they work similarly. Soul points take energy directly from the user's body, while MP takes energy from the system itself, making it easier to manipulate; only a handful of users can control SP freely.

The whole argument that Anabel is a rushed novel is a fair one, and I understand how it could come off as unplanned, but trust me, it's not. Yet, to please the main audience, I'm writing interludes, which I will add up later for future readers better to understand the world in the first two volumes.

As always, I take your feedback very seriously, and even though you sometimes hurt my feelings with your words, I still appreciate it. Since Volume 3 is going to be more complex, I will take the liberty of taking my time writing more compelling storylines and implementing all of your suggestions into it, so I apologize if I take a week off to learn more words and better expressions with my English teacher.

So, if updates stop for a week, do not worry; I'm not dropping. I will simply take more time not to sound so "rushed" and "unprofessional" even though I never claimed to be one, but okay.

THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN! よんでくれてありがとうございます。
