It’s a brand new arc!
Volume 2 starts after this and I will finally be free of this confining arc structure!

Now, I’ve started doing some heavy work doing professional proofreading. I have to be honest, the pressure is a lot more than editing for fun.
When you’re editing for fun you can be quite liberal and if you miss something it’s easy to go back and correct.
But professionally you have to be quite strict and you don’t get second chances. You also have to live up to your payment.
Normally I’d give it a read through then go back and edit once, but I’ve had to do two passes so far and I’m still paranoid I’m missing things.

Editors Log – Supplemental – Earthdate 20191119: It’s 5am and I am frelling tired okay! This chapter was long! It was late! My internet is still playing up! I feel like my eyes are about to burn out of their sockets!

This is it! Finale of the of the Crimson Arc! No cliffhangs this time I promise.
New arc coming soon trademark.
Look forward to next week! Even I haven’t read ahead yet.

It’s here! The resolution to the cliff that you’ve all been waiting for!
Tomorrow is the last chapter of this Crimson Arc of Demon Sword Maiden.
I wonder what awaits Lily in the future.

In other news, unless you’re in the ReLibrary discord, you may not be aware of this but; I’ve recently talked my friend into doing a cosplay of Lily and we’re slowly working towards putting it together. We’ve recently overcome what we believe to be the most expensive obstacle in our path, but we don’t expect to complete the most difficult obstacle until some time next year. Cosplay is actually a painstaking hobby, not many people really appreciate it as much as they should.

So we finally find out why this is called the Crimson Arc! Not long left until this one comes to an end.

As an aside, we’re rapidly approaching the 100 chapter mark, I’m thinking of writing a special chapter based on what you fans want to see!
There’s lots of demands for Lily to put her (former?) slaves in their place. But what other things might people want?
Maybe we should do a complete what-if chapter of all your fantasies! Start submitting some ideas, and maybe I’ll host a poll!

In other news, make sure to go join the patreon of any of the novels you read here! It helps us keep giving you what you love!

Sorry guys, I had a super busy weekend and barely had any time to edit this chapter.
Please forgive me!
Maybe I should make it up to you by writing a worst case scenario what-if based on this chapter? :EvilSmirk:

So Crossing Void was released today, for those who don’t know that’s a mobile gacha game featuring a giant crossover of your favourite Light Novel heroes!

Well this game has it all! Combine your favourite characters from your favourite franchises and take on the multiverse in full force!

You know I could have sworn I had an update to accompany this post but it has completely slipped my mind now that it has come to writing it!
Did anyone watch Sol Press’ news panel? They’ve just licensed Rakudai in English, so you’ll now be able to buy physical copies of those books in English.
You can decide for yourself to be happy or sad at the fact Sol Press got the license, their Light Novel release rate leaves a lot to be desired sometimes but I’m still a fan of their Visual Novel work.

And as always, I love imoutos, bye.

Tiny chapter today, don’t hate me. Silva scolded me yesterday, apparently people don’t default to opening links in a new tab like I do, so I need to manually set up all future links to open in a new tab for all the normies out there.

Now to discuss some personal stuff like I mentioned yesterday!
So a few of you may remember that I signed up for the Invaders kickstarter at the start of this month! Well recently they released a new reward package that comes with a short-story custom written by the author, for your personally! Obviously I stupidly squandered all my money on it almost instantly. The problem is, I have too many ideas for prompts! Someone help!
The story will be set in the same world and feature the characters of the novels! Only common sense limits are applied.

I’ve compiled all the ideas that have been suggested so far.
Concept 1: A duel between Theia and Yurika, showcasing the strengths and weaknesses of Technology and Magic head-to-head.
Concept 2: A research institute studying the different technology and magic systems.
Concept 3: Something about Charl because she’s a frelling adorable little sister.
Concept 4: Theia and Koutarou get stranded in London after a miscalculation when returning from the Blue Knight.
Concept 5: A press conference about Forthorthe making contact with Earth.
Concept 6: Combine concepts 4 and 3, they get stranded in London and to pass the time Koutarou reminisces about Charl to Theia.
Concept Stupid: “Have all the characters dream they swapped genders” – Silva

Did you guys see the recently finished art Silva commissioned for Demon Sword Maiden? Some of you may remember the poll that was hosted long before I became an editor here, well the results are in!

Silva even said there’s an extra NSFW version over on the Patreon!
BTW I’ve seen it and it’s very uhm…inspiring. Yes. Inspiring. I feel a strong urge to write a .5 Chapter coming on.
Not convinced to go over to the patreon yet? Well don’t worry, because if you guys support it enough then Silva plans to commission another piece of art! With extra NSFW goodness how can you possibly turn it down now? Even a single schmeckle would help!

Tomorrow I have some questions for you guys personally, so get your thinking hats on!

Silva wanted me to do a poll to measure how many people are using the new Dark Mode as opposed to Light Mode, but he also forgot that would require me to crawl around the internet trying to work out how to make a poll on wordpress because he disabled my visual editor mode. Something about how I kept making messy code because I edited in it?

Also in other news, I got promoted to Chief Editor of Arifureta I guess? I might do something with that title, I’m not sure.
This gives me a lot of titles now!
Chief Editor of Arifureta, Editor and Publisher of Demon Sword Maiden and Not Sure, Another World.
Slowly but surely my conquest of this site will take hold, and it will become Xen:Library!

-Yours Sincerely,
(Future) Lord Robinxen
