Ebook edition 1.0: May 2023 Premium E-Book for Afterword Hello, everyone. I’m the author, Genkotsu Kumano. Thank you for taking your time to read this book. I’d like to thank those who decided to read the afterword first before jumping into the story. I’ve avoided spoilers, so you can read this until the end worry-free. I’d like to first introduce the proper way to abbreviate this book. I’ve taken the first bit of the title and abbreviated it to Yomehan. Please use this hashtag to discuss your thoughts about this book on Twitter or any other social media platform. I’ll secretly like your tweet. This book was a story that I originally uploaded onto a web novel site. I was grateful to see that it was popular on other sites as well, and I was finally able to make it into a book. I’m sure some of my readers have supported me from the web novel site as well. Thank you so much for your support. I’ll continue to work hard on this series. I’ve made this book so that those who’ve read the online series can enjoy it as well. I’ve upgraded the contents, and even added a few new episodes. I’ve aimed for both newcomers and those who read the web novel to enjoy this book. I’d be happy if you could continue to support me! Lastly, I’d like to provide some acknowledgements. Thank you to Falmaro, who drew my characters so cutely. Thank you so much! They drew not only the heroine, but the main character Callus so adorably. Every time I received their illustrations, I screamed by myself in my room. Thank you to my editor, Warafuji, who squeezed in this book within the first batch of DRE Novels. It was tough rewriting the manuscript, wasn’t it? Please treat me to delicious food again. Thank you to the proofreaders, the sales team, everyone who helped me make this book, and everyone who picked this up to read. I’d like to end this afterword by Happiness is being able to live a normal life, I thought, as a wave of unending pain gripped my body. “Look, Master! I just made a— Oops.” I crowed with delight before catching my words. My master was looking at me with suspicion. That makes sense. To him, it just looked like I suddenly started talking to myself. “Are you all right, Callus? Did you eat something weird, perhaps? Were you poisoned and now see hallucinations?” he asked. “I-I’m fine! I can explain!” I tried to reason with him, but he wasn’t listening to me at all. I wanted to tell him only after I learned a bit more about spirits, but I guess I’ve got no choice. “I’m sorry, Master! I was keeping quiet about this, but actually, I’m able to see spirits!” “What are you talking about? Has fatigue brought on some strange visions?” “No!” He continued to look at me with doubt. He’s definitely suspicious about me. I guess he won’t believe me if I say it out of the blue. “There’s really a spirit right here!” I said. “Oh, so you’re still going to keep going? Then can you see the spirit that possesses me too?” “Um, I can’t, but...” I turned to my spirit. “Oh, can you see the spirit that possesses him, Selena?” “Huh? The grandpa? Sure I can. It’s a golden hawk,” she replied. “A golden hawk? Hm, I feel like that description alone won’t be so convincing.” My master couldn’t see his spirit, so there was no way of proving if I was correct.
