Villainess Level 99: I May Be the Hidden Boss but I’m Not the Demon Lord - Volume 3 - Chapter Aft

Afterword

Hello, it’s been a while. I’m Satori Tanabata. Thank you very much for picking up the previous volume, as well as reading this one.

This series is titled Villainess Level 99: I May Be the Hidden Boss but I’m Not the Demon Lord, but the villainess elements seem to have largely disappeared. Some people may disagree, but the first volume was definitely a villainess story. The villainess-ness of Act 2 might still be debatable, but as for Act 3...not so much. Not only that, but our “villainess” is now over level 99 in this volume, and there are certainly no suspicions left that she is the Demon Lord... The subtitle should probably just be changed to I Am the Hidden Boss.

While I’m at it, I’m considering changing the name I write under to “Slowly McWriterson.”

The cover features two Yumiellas. Thank you, Tea, for capturing how they don’t get along while also making them seem like partners. Patrick and Eleanora look lively as well, which means that it’s truly an incredible illustration.

The comic adaptation is also currently being published in B’s-LOG COMICS to great acclaim. The art is beautiful, and the pacing of the story is great. It’s an incredibly high-quality manga. Every month I’m on the edge of my seat, excited for the new chapter. I’m truly grateful to Nocomi. 

And finally, to my two editors, the illustrator Tea, the proofreaders, everyone else involved in the publishing of this book, and everyone who continued to pick up this series, I truly thank you.
