Afterword
Long time no see everyone. It’s the author, Takehaya.
We have now reached the ten volume mark quite quickly. No, I guess it wasn’t that quick. It’s been three years since the first volume was published. In commemoration of that, I was thinking of telling you about how this work came to be by taking a look back from the first volume, but since I don’t have much space left for this afterword, I will do so next time if possible. For now I’ll just go through what happened in this volume like always.
This story takes place in Harukaze City ten years in the past as Koutarou and Clan are on their way home from ancient Forthorthe. It’s also Koutarou’s second secret.
Having reached Harukaze City in Clan’s spaceship, they encounter a girl named Kii looking for a shooting star. Koutarou worries that Kii might have seen their spaceship descending, so he tags along with her to find out more, but then the story develops in an unexpected direction.
Because of the setting, the invader girls don’t appear in this volume. I was originally thinking of calling this volume 9.5, but compared to the other side stories, this has a much more direct relation to the main cast and story, so I decided to treat it like a proper volume after all. In other words, it’s a very 9.5-esque volume 10.
Whoops, I’m already out of space, so I guess it’s time to say goodbye. As always, I would like to thank everyone at the editorial department; Poco-san for drawing proper illustrations for this restless story; my group of friends that comes to play whenever I get stuck on my work; R, my friend’s son who finally remembered my name; and finally everyone who bought this book.
Let us meet again in the afterword for volume 11.
