Afterword
Hello, this is Hitsuji Taro.
This time, the sixteenth volume of Akashic Records of the Bastard Magic Instructor has been published.
I offer infinite gratitude to the editors, publishers, and all the readers who have supported Bastard Magic Instructor.
In this sixteenth volume, the story continues from the previous volume, centering on a magical festival set on the world stage… but, well, things have gotten chaotic again (eyes rolling back).
On the main stage, Sistine and the other students are shining brightly with their active roles, while behind the scenes, troublesome figures are scheming in the shadows… and above all, this time, the contents of Memoirs of Alicia III are finally revealed! With this, the hidden backdrop of the Bastard Magic Instructor story has become considerably clearer, I think.
I mean, the scale of this story just keeps getting bigger! Where exactly is this tale headed!? B-but don’t worry, dear readers! There’s no need to fret! It may look like I’m making it up as I go, but everything is meticulously calculated!
It will all come together properly! I’ll neatly tie up every single foreshadowed thread and guide the story to a satisfying conclusion for you all to see! The route is already clear, and the goal has long been decided. All that’s left is to write it!
Now, for some announcements.
Bastard Magic Instructor has finally reached its fifth anniversary! To celebrate, we’ve decided to hold another popularity poll! The Bastard Magic Instructor Character Popularity Poll will be held on the official Fantasia Bunko website for one month, starting around January 18, 2020! Please consider participating if you’d like! There’s a wonderful prize for the character who takes first place, I hear!
Also, I, Hitsuji Taro, have finally started using Twitter, a bit late to the game. I mostly just ramble about trivial daily things, but if there’s anyone eccentric enough to want to keep tabs on someone like me, please give me a follow. My username is [@Taro_hituji].
With that, I hope for your continued support in all sorts of ways going forward!
