Hyakuren no Haou to Seiyaku no Valkyria - Volume 19 - Chapter Aft

Afterword

Hello, it’s been a while. Takayama here. This might seem a bit sudden, but I have a confession to make... Lately, I’ve been jerking it. I’m forty-two, and I know it’s a bit odd for someone of my age to do something like that, but at times, I’m finding myself jerking it morning, day, and night.

I’ve been feeling a lot better since I started jerking it. The hip pain and the back pain that’s been bothering me for years is gone, and my shoulders feel lighter. It’s all thanks to jerking it. I hope that my readers will also jerk their hips like sumo wrestlers stomping on the ground. It’s a great way to lose weight, reduce stress, and help relieve back and hip pain.

Now, as for the story... It hasn’t ended yet. That’s odd, I suppose. The plan was to put an end to the fighting during the last volume. Despite that, the fighting still rages on. My estimates have been quite off, apparently. But, well, at the very least, by the end of the next volume, it might reach a certain climax?

Anyway, now that I’m done padding the necessary number of pages, let me get on with my usual acknowledgments.

To my editor, thank you for working with me through the Obon break. I truly appreciate the fact that you were willing to put up with me even during the holidays.

Yukisan-sensei, thank you so much for the beautiful illustrations as usual!

A sincere thanks also goes out to everyone who was involved with the completion of this book.

And finally, a heartfelt thank-you to every one of you readers who decided to pick up this volume!

This story is finally nearing its climax, and it’ll keep getting more intense from here, so please follow along on this journey until the end! I hope that we meet again in the next volume.
