Chapter 25: Author’s Note #1: End of Vol. 1, Start of Vol. 2

Author's Note #1: End of Volume 1, Start of Volume 2 (Chapters 1-24)

Hi everyone, Yunwu here!

I know I've passed my promised return date, but as everyone knows, things have been hectic! I've been busy with a lot of things and finally got around to finish editing the previous chapters. Though...I'm sure there are still some errors I've missed. 

Volume 1 has ended, and volume 2 will be beginning shortly! Unfortunately, it isn't today. -w- But! … It's tomorrow! ^^ And this time, there will be a release date! Starting on the 11th, 'The Duke's Familiar is A Witch' will update one chapter every Monday and Friday around this time. That will be a total of two weekly chapters. The catch is, however, the chapters will be shorter than usual. My chapters are usually around 1,300-1,800 words. Instead, it will now be between 900-1,200 words.

For my past readers, I suggest going over the chapters again or looking through the glossary as there have been many changes. While the story's overall plot has not changed, some names, places and terms have changed. One of the major changes I've made is the time frame in which the female lead, Aurora, was summoned.

It was 5,000 years later at first.

But then a friend of mine said, "Isn't that too much? I mean, if you think about it, there aren't any Empires that have lasted that long!"

I told my friend that I don't really bother about comparing reality to novels.

And then she said, "What will your readers think?!"

"...…"

And so, I compromised with her and changed it to one thousand years later!  y（^ヮ^）y

Then there was the struggle with the two brothers, Raya and Halon's surname. I realized that one of the novels I'm reading has two brothers with exactly the same name. Um...how did that happen??

Well now, that's not good. I don't want to change their first name, so let's target their last name. Here's somewhat how the conversation between me and my friend went when searching for a new name. Their previous name started with a 'B' so I tried sticking with that, but...

Yunwu: "Blakesley."

Friend: *Shakes head*

Yunwu: "Barnes."

Friend: "Ah! Barnes & No..."

Yunwu: "...Beasley."

Friend: *Looks up the meaning.* "Bent grass..."

Yunwu: -_- "Ainsworth!"

Friend: "Oh. Wasn't there an anime where the male lead's head was his head was a skull? Didn't he have the same name?"

Yunwu:  "...…"

In the end, I threw in the towel and decided to just pick the next name I find. I ended up getting Kasser. My friend, of course, said it sounds like 'kisser'. I refused to back down so I went with this. Sorry, Raya and Halon.

Raya. "...Kisser."

Halon. "Kisser..." 

They've become speechless.

On another note! I've also tried to make a world map, but it isn't as easy as it seems. Or maybe I'm just not creative enough? I haven't really given up on it, but well...let's put it on hold for now...

I also planned on writing several extra chapters during my hiatus about the twin maids, Tanya and Anya, the two brothers Raya and Halon, more about Lucius' childhood and Aurora after she killed her first love...it didn't end up going how I wanted so I dropped it. Maybe I'll pick it up again when I have time.

There were some mistakes that my readers pointed out to me that I completely missed. One even made me go *facepalm*. Here's a hint, it's chapter 3. *facepalm* To the readers who gave me advice, pointed out errors and left a comment, thank you very much for your support! *takes a bow*  <(＿ ＿)>

~And with that said, see you guys tomorrow! As always, thank you for reading! Stay safe and enjoy! Oh, and please be patient with my horrible grammar. I'll also try my best to edit any errors I miss the first time around. 

A little spoiler for the second volume for you guys who stuck around to read my boring ranting!

Aurora learns something shocking about herself, will she pull through once again?

It's about time for her to learn more about rune magic and get her own rune! But what she didn't expect was her powers changing so much. With new abilities, she'll decided on a new path. And her decision will either save or condemn thousands of lives. 

An incident has occurred in the Rizar Dukedom. People are disappearing and murders are happening by what looks to be a large animal. But there's a much darker and sinister plan at work. Lucius and Aurora, with the help of a few others will have to find a way to keep his people safe.

Will they be able to get through this tragedy without losing anyone?
