Explanation of the magic of Erika, Honoka and Mikihiko from Chapter 9-2

An explanation of how these guys got there at all

It was the 23rd volume in the series, "Isolation." Did you like it?

"Isolation" was an episode I wanted to write as quickly as possible, even from the start of my work on this story.

The name "Isolation" was given from the very beginning of the writing of this volume, but the basis leading to the culmination has not changed until the very debut of this volume.

In short, the main idea was confrontation with "Katsuto, the strongest enemy at the moment." The new magic "Baryon Lance" was conceived for use here.

This episode, among other things, also had to lead to some reflection. When I wrote (Continuation in ...), along with a feeling of complete exhaustion, I got the idea "I finally wrote it ...".

Just because I have never written so well. All the prerequisites for the planned confrontation of those two turned out to be bricks ...

As a result, there were very few corrections. For example, when I wrote an episode with Fumiya's women's dressing, I remarked: "Didn't he show his face in the Nine Schools Competition ...?", So I had to rewrite it a little. ...

Well, it really was fun.

As you probably already knew, this arch "Isolation" is one of the culminations of the entire series "The Untrucky Apprentice in the School of Magic." But this isn't the highest culmination.

The current confrontation was, one might say, a conflict between the allies. But real enemies are others. Perhaps the readers already had an idea who could become an enemy, corresponding to the "final boss". ... Even if you think so, you are waiting for one more "this is the turn."

Events in history will continue to heat up.

While the main stream of the story is being written, there are also aspects in it that make it unintentional to describe the circumstances and disclose the details behind them. This may seem correct for short novels, but with my writing style, I cannot deny my feeling of lack of explanation. Therefore, I think that I will just add further what I had to miss in this volume. Although many probably don't like superfluous text, I'll still add a few pages after the afterword.

This volume presented a fictional plan for the development of Venus, called the "Project Dion." Hiago Naoyuki-sama from JAXA, Sakurai Naoko-sama from the Japan Space Forum, as well as the author of scientific articles,

Kashiwai Isana-sama provided me with a lot of valuable information on this issue. In addition, Kashiwai-sama introduced me to the science fiction writer Fuji Taiyo. I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to you.

I write this afterword right before the movie is released. I myself haven't watched the preliminary show. Although I have only information from the production stage, but I'm sure it will be an interesting sight. It will be an exciting movie, worthy of large screens of cinemas. Everyone who came to the cinema, how do you like it? I believe that you were satisfied.

The name of the next volume is "Escape" *. I think it will be "Escape (part 1)".

[The author's name is written in English. Given his love of ambiguous phrases, it is still unclear how to translate this, "escape,"

"flight,"

"salvation." Given the explicit hint of E.S.C.P.E.S, I think it's better to leave it in Latin.]

Ranobeh version of the movie, I'll probably finish it sooner. I'm going to write a "full version", which also includes scenes cut from the theatrical version. However, we haven't yet decided how we will publish this. I'll let you know as soon as it's decided.

So, I sincerely hope to meet you again in the next volume, "Escape". And maybe the next will be "The Girl Calling the Stars (full version)."

Shadow Cross Section

Concerning Erika's "Techniques of the Hidden Sword," Kirikage (literally the Shadow Section). You could see her for the first time in the theatrical version of "The Girl Calling the Stars". I imported a new magic into the novel, created specifically for the theatrical version of the film.

It refers to non-systemic magic. Having an immaterial blade created from compressed psions, it can cut the psion information body inside the human body.

The psion information body, which is the target of the attack, isn't the Eidos of the human body, but something similar to a form-watching image formed in a natural way, repeating the contours of the body in the material world. There is no strong connection with the essence of Eidos, but advanced masters of martial arts control their body, moving first this "image-watching image."

The cut of the shadow is, it might be said, a dirty trick that uses the surprise effect and cuts the "shadow" of the enemy, depriving him of control of the body.

This technique Erika studied as a means of attacking the psion information body, since she had no means against the Parasites in the ark "Guest." It was a secret technique that only the head of Chiba's family, Chiba Joyiro, could use. But my father didn't teach her. She was able to comprehend it herself, having studied the secret texts.

Magic, lulling a detachment of capture from the Intelligence Department

The light that put the intelligence squad moving through the forest to attack Tatsuya was the magic of Honoka's "Hypno-Eye."

It was an improved version of The Evil Eye that Honoka already used to lull intelligence officers in volume 11, page 134. Instead of specializing in the magical "sleepy" effect, parameters such as power, range, and number of targets were raised.

Cracked earth and lightning bolts attacking the capture unit from the Intelligence Department

It was the same magic that Mikihiko used against Kichijouji on the Novelty Division's Monolith Code. This is a combination of magic from "Earthquake,"

"Split Earth,"

"Wild Hair," and "Descendant of Thunder."

The reason that Erika and the others were present where this "raid" was conducted

Why Erika and others were able to defeat Tsukasa and the capture squad from the Intelligence Department?

I missed the explanation for this, because I thought that it would have a bad effect on the tempo set at the end of the volume, but after Katsuto, Mayumi and Mari left, there was such a conversation in the villa's living room.

"By the way, Erika, those people who came with you are SMAT from the police?"

M? Yes, that's right.

"It's not an accident, is it?" How did you know that today the Self-Defense Forces will come here?

"And we didn't know that it would be Self-Defense Forces ... Miyuki's behavior was a bit unnatural, and I realized that something will happen today."

Uh, my behavior?

"Miyuki, you said then that Juumonji-senpai will come today to keep us, isn't it?"

Y-yes.

"I mean, did you've to say this?" You could just say, for example, "this isn't the time." But if Juumonji-senpai comes to talk with Tatsuya-kun, then is it not necessary to keep it a secret?

Ah ...

Then I just obediently agreed. But I realized that something will happen there. I thought that unwanted guests could come in and collect people from the dojo.

With such a prehistory, Erika came to Izu with a squad of police special forces, assembled from the students of the Chiba dojo.

This concludes the additional materials. See you in the next volume "Escape."
