Book 2 Afterword
Afterword
And with that, I’m back. This is Kamachi Kazuma.
This story was a continuation of the “My Vampire Older Sister and Zombie Little Sister…(etc.)” released for free on my official website. …So the day has finally come when typing a title I came up with is too much work.
The previous volume was about a vampire older sister and zombie little sister seeing who was more infectious inside a disaster environment simulator, but the stage this time was shifted to the real Kukyou City while the Colosseum, the previous volume’s greatest mystery, was pushed to center stage.
So even though the setting was almost exactly the same, the overall atmosphere might have seemed quite different. However, I tried to maintain the idea of Archenemies causing human society to crumble. If this made you realize that the same theme could look quite different when tackled from different directions, then my experiment was a success.
The guest heroine this time was Itou Helen. She is Satori’s underclassman girl who only had a single line of dialogue last time. She is a witch, an Archenemy that was not aware she was one. We have a lot of words for people who use magic and other supernatural powers: wizards, sorcerers, magicians, etc. But witches seemed like a genre I hadn’t had a chance to do much with, so I decided to use the material I had built up. I used a Greek witch this time, but it might be fun to write a story about a clash between witches with different roots, such as Celtic and Norse.
Last time, Satori was stuck in the simulator as a normal user with his administrator privileges temporarily sealed, but I had him run all around the real world with full use of them this time. He is a lot like the name I gave him. This is a little different from a protagonist that always uses his fists, but I hope you could accept this too.
I give my thanks to my illustrator Mahaya-san and my editors Miki-san, Onodera-san, and Anan-san. Not only did I focus on the Colosseum, but I also included a lot of character variation, so this could not have been an easy one to illustrate. Thank you very much. And I also need to thank Kasai Shin-san for the original version of Bunny Girl Karen.
And I also give my thanks to the readers. What did you think of this story about the little witch who continued to fight alongside Satori? This was a unique structure for a story since it followed the Colosseum as the second instead of the contestant, but I hope you enjoyed it.
And I will end this here.
I may have gone too far with the Vice Principal’s characterization for someone who didn’t have a single line of dialogue.
