The year is almost over and it`s been more than two months since this novel first posted. Boy, it seems so long ago now.

　　I write this to address some of the problems that made known to me by the reviews. Thanks a lot for them by the way, I appreciate your opinions very much.

　　Grammar: I`m pleased to announce that my grammar is better than when I first started! (According to the reviews and comments... or am I just imagining it?) However, there`s still much to be desired. It`s far from perfect, far from great even. But I`ll keep improving on it to deliver you smooth flowing words, not needles that stabs at your eyes :)

　　Grammar problems that I will focus on:

　　Odd and weak word choice. Repetitive sentence structures, especially in the beginning. Overly frequent wrong tenses.

　　Style: The Internal monologues are too frequent! Superfluous and needs trimming! A lot of philosophizing and justifications!

　　Got it, lads! Loud and clear. I will work on those!

　　...Did I miss something else? I`m sure you will let me know in the comments. ^^

　　Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

　　Characters: Viers is too cold-blooded since the beginning! MC`s reactions to being in danger aren`t very realistic! MC has a severe case of chuunibyou! Secondary characters aren`t very fleshed out! I don`t feel any incentive to care about them (side-chars) in particular. It feels like the MC doesn`t quite either, so why should I?

　　The early chapters are heavily focused on Viers and worldbuilding. The side-chars are few and very little screen time. Since Viers is a loner and socially awkward, he really did care very little to the people around him.

　　Buttt, it`s not an excuse for writing a bad story. A good author should be able to show that Viers is lone-wolf while the other characters remain exciting and relevant to the story. Furthermore, MC`s ruthlessness, unrealistic reactions, and any other inconsistency... It`s all due to the author`s lack of skill, no excuses. I apologize and will learn from it.

　　Story: Most people feel it`s quite good and worth exploring. Shows a lot of promise. Horaaay, thanks a lot guys! It seems my delusions can be used to entertain people instead of simply collecting mind-dust in my head :p

　　Of course, I also acknowledge the negatives. Such as `the heavy expositions chapters without much going on.` (7-13 and 17-23 perhaps? I`m not sure)

　　Again, all due to the author`s lack of ability and experience. I take full responsibility.

　　So, I got your messages loud and clear... Unfortunately, I won`t rewrite the mistakes laden early chapters. Now I know people that wanted to rewrite their novels felt, it wasn`t a good feeling.

　　I will still improve the grammar mistakes but I couldn`t afford the time to do a major overhaul, at least for the foreseeable future. I`d rather write the next chapter of the story. I offer my deepest apologies for my stance in this. m(_ _)m

　　This is my first novel, full of mistakes and imperfections, bland story and many people won`t like it. But I gain precious experience by writing it and I`m sure it will benefit me in the long run.

　　I want... to write a novel and hope there are some people out there that enjoy it.

　　Happy new year 2020! Best wishes to all of you!
