Hiya~! Just one more July Monday remaining before August… And as always, Monday is AinCiel-day!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: With winter closing in, our princesses walk around a less lively town, with people busy preparing for snowfall. The younger princess (who is in warm and comfy clothes as the older princess allowed her to feel some of the cold) was quite interested about snow, since they ignored it in the past years, and was also curious about the preparations, so they asked a street vendor they’ve been acquainted with recently and they were taught about what happens in this town during winter. After that, they pondered on what to do for today, leading to them heading their favorite seamstress for some clothes.
Now then, what will happen next? What kind of clothes will our girls request for? Will Ciel and Shusii go ham with designing again? And will Ain be toyed around again this time?

Hiya~! Man, time sure flies. We’re already halfway through the month? Anyhow, AinCiel time!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: Coming upon a hot spring, the curious younger princess tried it out while grandpa dragon started chilling on the side of the mountain. And later that day, we were put into the mind of our ex-noble maid, who was currently assisting the older princess in the bath. We see how out of the norm they seem from her eyes, but also how fragile they are, how much their past trauma has yet to leave them even in this walled garden they are now in.
Now then, what will happen next? What will be our cast’s agenda for the day? Will we have more AinCiel alone time fluff? Or will we be meeting familiar faces this time?

Hiya~! We’re on July’s second Monday now, and that means: time for part 2!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: In the innermost depth of a dungeon, our older princess finds herself in the middle of a battle. A dance of a battle, if you will, between our younger princess and grandpa dragon at a snowy mountaintop. And in the midst of this, our older princess spies with her two eyes what appears to be white mist rising from a faraway location. So after the battle, they decided to go and take a look at what it is. And what it is was a hot spring, commonly seen at snowy mountaintops indeed.
Now then, what will happen next? Will our cast, predictably as it might be, take a dip in the hot spring? Does that include our old dragon friend Tur? And, as the title has said that there’d be multiple POV, who will the other POV be?

Hiya~! A new Interlude for a new month! July 1st, here we go!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: In the chat with the black-haired girl, the grandmaster was informed that she and her white counterpart will be leaving for academic studies in the neighboring kingdom; coincidentally the same kingdom where a certain prince who sent a certain letter came from. As such, they came here to both inform and hopefully scheme ways in how they can remain anonymous during the stay. And while the grandmaster has a hunch that they’d eventually get into trouble later anyways, the chat ended without a hitch.
Now then, what will happen next? Will our princesses be up some shenanigans? It seems like we’re getting a hot spring episode today, but what will it entail? And what led to this situation anyway?

Hiya~! We’re already at our last Monday of the month! Time sure flies fast!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: We delve into the mind of our resident Guild HQ Manager as he looks back on the history of the organization. Due to recent events, he was faced with the protest of one of the young’uns of the management team, but he stands firm on his decisions and gives the best kind of rebuttals: facts. Then, he met up with the primary cause of this protest: a usually white-haired young girl, just dark flavor this time.
Now then, what will happen next? What brought our main cast to the grand master today? Will we be gaining more of the grand master’s insight about our girls? And will we be talking about enrollment stuff this time?

Hiya~! June has finally caught up to my mental calendar, and I’m only 3 weeks late! Anyhow, let’s head onto our next interlude!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: Delving into the mind of a random receptionist, we see her having to deal with an unreasonable customer right after dealing with someone above her pay grade. Her explanation of how she couldn’t indulge the customer’s demand to rent a high capacity storage bag fell on deaf ears, but thankfully one a higher-tier guild member came to intercede. And as the troublemaker was about to leave, he bumped into a weirdly familiar child, which ended in physical conflict… with the child left standing.
Now then, what will happen next? Will it be another non-AinCiel POV chapter? Will we continue on why Ain called for an appointment with the Grandmaster? And… well, how relevant will this interlude’s title be to the chapter content?

Hiya~! May is here! (I forgot the date last time, so let’s pretend this is the first week of May, lol) And without further ado, here we are with the next interlude!
Last time on AinCiel Interlude: Arriving before the landlady, the three maids were given more information regarding the young ladies trip, as well as given privy to their divine secret… which was practically an open secret, so more of a confirmation?
Now then, what will happen next? With the maid interlude finished, are we back to AinCiel POV? Or, considering the title of the next chapter, will it be another different character POV?

Hiya~! We’re now on our last leg of May! But I have nothing to say, so AinCiel update it is!
Last time on Maid’s Night Up 2: After the young ladies fell asleep, our three maids were called by the mistress of the manor. On their way there, they reflected on the current hot topic: an insensitive letter by the 4th prince of the neighboring kingdom addressed to the young ladies of the manor. They were curious about the character of this said prince, so they asked the recent recruit, as she is a former lady noble, everything she knows. This did not lead them to be more sympathetic towards the prince, however, and they continue angrily discussing among themselves.
Now then, what will happen next? For what reason were they summoned? Will it be about our two princesses’ upcoming trip? Or will it be more about the recent letter and its sender?

Hiya~! We’re now on our last leg of May! But I have nothing to say, so AinCiel update it is!
Last time on AinCiel: As our princesses got into the topic of schooling, our younger princess had a burning curiosity in regards to how the older princess spoke back in the day. And being unable to bring herself to refuse to younger princess’ request, the older princess tried to speak in a more youthful way… only she went a bit too youthful that anticipated. As a result, she got embarrassed and the younger princess was greatly pleased.
Now then, what will happen next? Oh wait, “The Maids’ Late Evening 2”!? What will this evening be about? Are we perhaps going to have an insight on the maids’ thoughts about the recent letter debacle?

Hiya~! The third week of May it is, and it’s once again time for AinCiel Monday!
Last time of AinCiel: Back at their room, our young princess asked about the unusual thing the older princess asked their landlord mom earlier. From there, they got into the topic of the older princess’ past life, with her even showing how the mystical art of “animation” worked. After talking about the “hospitals” of her old world, they reached the topic of schools.
Now then, what will happen next? Will Ain be forced to explain the more complicated intricacies of the education system? What other topics will they explore? And with “Manner of Speech” in the title, will we be delving deep into speech and linguistics?

Hiya~! It’s the second week of May, and while this may no longer be the case in certain time-zones; I wish you all a Happy Mother’s Day!
Last time of AinCiel: After deciding to keep the letter for now, our princesses then had a chat with their dear mother landlady. With the possibility of future troubles in mind, the older princess asked landlady mom if they had some sort of family crest, and to her surprise, they did. She was then handed a medallion with the crest of a white dragon, which reminded her to ask whether naming a monster could have some unintended aftereffects. Our older princess was thankfully told no, but now she will have to answer the younger princess’ curiosity.
Now then, what will happen next? How will Ain explain the idea of a cliche to Ciel? Will she even do that? And… “Ain’s Past”?… Oh boy, it seems like it’s going to be interesting this time!

Hiya~! Welcome to our first week of May! No wasting time today; story summary here we go!
Last time of AinCiel: Inside their bedroom, our princesses once again have their attention stolen by the bothersome letter. Pondering whether to just throw it through the shredder or not, they asked their newest maid for advice. After hearing the pros and cons of keeping the letter, our older princess starts concocting sinister schemes. Just in case, y’know?
Now then, what will happen next? What other topics will our princesses chat about today? Will we spend the whole day in bed today? And will it be more comfy after this?

Hiya~! It’s the last Monday of April, and you might have noticed something different with today’s post title! From here on comes the Intermission Arc, a collection of interludes building up until the next Story Arc. Or rather, the next Book (aka Major Story Arc). I’ve noticed that it’s been tradition for AinCiel to end most of its story arcs with one or several interludes to tie up loose ends and show the different perspectives of other characters, or just provide a quick punch of catharsis, and it seems like the author has judged that we get a whole interlude arc this time, numbering not 1, not 2, and not even 3 interludes, but a total of 13 of them, lol. So, all I can say is prepare for a bit of a slowdown, different POVs, and, of course, some daily life stories from our young princesses as they spend their time preparing for their enrollment.
What will happen as they prepare? How many POV characters are we going to go through in this arc? And how much cuteness are we to expect from daily-life stories?
Time to enjoy some slice of life!

Hiya~! Second to the last Monday here, we’re quickly approaching May! Here we are, a new AinCiel update! (Also, I completely forgot to change part of the announcement post last update, ehe)
Last time on AinCiel: With the letter read and the context explained, our younger princesses asked if our older princess was interested in this marriage proposal. And after receiving a resounding no, she then proceeded to start trashing the letter’s sender offscreen. On the other hand, landlady mom seem to want our princesses to study at the sender’s country. Apparently, there’s someone there up to forbidden mischief that needs to be warned.
Now then, what will happen next? Will our princesses agree to this? Will they be able to go there without causing much of a fuss? And will their discussion end in this chapter?

Hiya~! We’re on our third Monday of the month! And Monday always means a new AinCiel update!
Last time on AinCiel: Revealing black-haired older princess’ existence to the head manager, our girls safely collected the letter and returned home. There, they told landlady mom about what happened and eventually read the letter’s contents. Knowing more context than our two princesses, landlady mom and the maids were then enraged by the letter’s insinuation. It’s a marriage proposal! And not one which many can refuse!
Now then, what will happen next? Will Ain, by any chance, accept this courtship thrust onto her? Actually, what is Ciel’s reaction going to be? And how will this letter incident further develop?
Find out in this half of the chapter Summons and a Letter!
