  Weapons: Aside from the six energy grappling hooks, prominently wielded by Yuri through most of the story is her sword rifle, though it was not name dropped in the remastered version, it is code named Angil Filishter all along from the start. Perhaps the name is yet visible in the original version of the novel.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

  Above 1 upper picture: Remodled form of Yuri in her Starbreaker armor, uploaded on 2022/11/19.

  Above 2 lower picture: same Remodled form, but without the rune details. Runes of power indicates the strength and activation of any Starbreaker armor. It may seem like gibberish or meaningless scribbles, and yes. Some of them are. But not all of them. Some runes are actually derived from the original language form, which...might be shared in a later chapter.

Above: early sketching of the Remodled Yuri, before adding color [https://img.wattpad.com/a68b22c37beffe7cfe597a44fd1b8f471b023b7c/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f566b6a61674479314561617033673d3d2d313239393733343238332e313733346562376164383833346331343931343630393835303534392e6a7067?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]

Above 1 and 2: some of you might be familiar of these two. They are the first used book covers for the original Before Light Novel, which...is not recommended due to scuffed writing and potential spoilers for the Remastered version. So...yep.

  Above: This one was first percieved to be a finer thumbnail for the music scores posted on my Youtube channel [https://img.wattpad.com/67a399a312eae23a47d46ec9db255832ff33d849/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f3855695445622d514530764231673d3d2d313239393733343238332e313733346562633563666363643862623439313335383235313038392e6a7067?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]

Above: This one was first percieved to be a finer thumbnail for the music scores posted on my Youtube channel. It was later replaced by the current Remodelization of the Yuri we know and love now. (Drawn 2022/10/09)

  Well, a failed attempt to become either a thumbnail or a book cover, that is [https://img.wattpad.com/1ab38a0fb98def0b8337ba5473692b78be9a7c5b/68747470733a2f2f73332e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f776174747061642d6d656469612d736572766963652f53746f7279496d6167652f4132504f6a673536724d795479673d3d2d313239393733343238332e3137333465626530353963323836316439333835303033353738312e706e67?s=fit&w=1280&h=1280]
