Afterword
Thank you very much for reading Volume 6 of How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord.
I’m the author, Yukiya Murasaki.
This volume concludes the Demon Lord vs Church arc. This time, not just Diablo, but his companions got some time in the spotlight too. When I was thinking of the plot, I didn’t intend for Horn to make such rapid progress, but, as I wrote, that weird goddess popped up... It’s probably all because of her.
Babalon’s a very idiosyncratic character of sorts, but how did you like her? This volume had a lot of comedic bits, so I wanted to tackle some serious themes as well to balance it out. Nothing would make me happier than to know you enjoyed it.
The next volume should kick off the Elf Kingdom arc. I’m also considering including the parts that were omitted from this volume, if there’s demand for it. Would you like to see Edelgard’s adventures at her workplace, and the climactic Klem vs Rose battle...?
Now for some thank-yous:
To Takahiro Tsurusaki, thank you so much for your wonderful illustrations as always! Talking to you really helped me put a spin on Horn’s story.
To Ooishi, the designer from Afterglow, thank you for putting in work on the capital’s map as well.
To my editor, Shouji, thank you for yet another volume’s worth of work. Thanks to your help, we got another book out.
To everyone at Kodansha’s editorial department, and all those involved with the work, to the family and friends who supported me, and to my many readers, who read this book: I offer a thank you of the highest level!
Thank you all very much!
Yukiya Murasaki
