Volume 4, Afterword
To the readers who continued to buy each book in this series, it's been a while.
To the rich readers who bought all four books at one go.
I'm Kamachi Kazuma.
Unknowingly, it's already the 4th volume. Though it's been only a year since I started out when I think through this calmly, four volumes should be enough to call this a 'series'. This makes me really understand that the value of a year can't be underestimated. Thinking back about it, I already devoted 1 hundredth of my life to writing 'Toaru Majutsu'. With this title alone, I even thought what sort of occult was involved.
The readers who read this volume should have discovered that the main topic is 'summoning spells'. Actually, there are all sorts of 'summoning spells'. There are those necromancers that can spirit dead souls into their bodies to those talismans that can input the power of Mercury. There are all sorts of summoning methods.
Speaking of summoning Angels and Demons, I would always think of praying in front of a magic array, but in Christianity (according to legend anyway), it's a lot more simpler. According to the Christian saying, there's an Angel and a Devil in everyone's heart, so there's no real need to specially summon them in the first place. In manga, they often had a situation 'when someone is hungry, a little Angel and a little Devil will appear near the top of the head and spin around arguing'; so that is actually based on actual documents.
Haimura Kiyotaka-san, who's in charge of the illustrations, and Miki-san, who's in charge of the project; I really like to thank you two for helping me for so long, and I'm sorry for bothering you two. The pros of this book were created by the two of you. I really look forward to working with you two in the future.
Finally, I'll like to thank the readers. It's thanks to the readers support that this series can rival a weekly manga series in release. While saying this, I like to ask for the readers support in the future. Right now, I like to thank everyone twice.
I hope that when you close this book.
I hope that the illusion of the next volume will open in your heart.
For today, let me put my pen down.
-Summer holidays are too long. This doesn't feel like a school life story.
Kamachi Kazuma.
