Toaru Majutsu no Index: New Testament -
Volume 8, Afterword
Volume 8, Afterword
To those who have bought one volume at a time: welcome back. To those who bought them all at once: welcome.
This is Kamachi Kazuma.
The series with the New Testament label is already on its eighth volume. The fight with Gremlin has continued for that long.
This time, the focus is placed on Kamijou Touma’s small objective of saving those he confronts even as he is caught up in a major battle.
At the same time, focus also falls on Ollerus and Othinus.
Someone has to fight back against Othinus somehow, but who can hurt such a terrifying opponent and how? When faced with that question, Ollerus and Fiamma of the Right attacked as a combo that doesn’t play fair. All of the foreshadowing laid out in the background of New Testament volumes 5 and 6 was used for this one-shot attack. How did you like it?
Perhaps because of her beauty, Freyja is a popular goddess in Norse mythology, but she is a mysterious existence with many other sides to her. Among those are more aggressive traits such as being Odin’s lover and having free control over half of the gods’ army of Einherjar. But this time, I used the most basic trait of being a goddess that gives birth to life.
No matter how great a mission a hero has, I hope they do not crush this kind of character underfoot along the way.
I give my thanks to my illustrator Haimura-san and my editors Miki-san, Onodera-san, and Anan-san. The stage this time had to have required a lot of work in a different way from Academy City. I am thankful they continue to stick with the unreasonable things I write.
I also thank all of you readers. I think this is the first time the story has taken place in Tokyo but not in Academy City. I think you will see many different stages from now on as well.
It is time to close the pages for now while praying that the pages of the next book will be opened.
And I lay my pen down for now.
Now, what will happen to the world that was ended without hesitation?
