72 Volume 4 - After Thoughts

We're here again, and I had a change of plans. But it's all within reason, probably. We stand at 982k words, nearly 1million in just 4 months! I feel like my body is dying...

Now then, Volume 5 will only cover 1 Canon story line and that's:

Volume 11 - Ouroboros and the Promotion Test

Volume 5 will start with it, since it will transition into some of the things I have vaguely planned so far. I don't have it in full detail yet, but... Yeah, that's my plan.

Volume 5 will be like Volume 1, a lot of original content. The planned Egyptian Mythology will be in Volume 5 instead of Volume 4. I will also go through the Russian/Slavic Mythology. Those are the only new ones for that Volume... If not, I'll update it... Well, maybe a small bit on Hawaii Gods?

Jin will also go back to other Mythologies as he'll do some requests and also explore a bit more of them. And If I hadn't made it obvious... There will be OCs joining his harem, I will also... Try to have Áine's little arc start and finish in this volume. If you know about her real life mythology, then, you'll vaguely know what I have planned for her.

Finally, Jin finally reached 1/2 of his evolution! If you don't understand how or why... It was mentioned by Elsha that he had to learn to love and forgive himself in order to move forward. Many of his journey to that moment had pointed that out to Jin, be it directly or indirectly.

Jin also was aware of that fact, the entire time, but since he had run away from this problem, both in his past and present life... It took him some time to reach it again.

Jin's stopped emotionally and mentally growing when Aoife died, since he blamed himself (Even though he had no control over that) as well as the asshole teens in his school blaming him (Because some teenagers are just awful human beings) and his neglectful parents since they were workaholics and were never there for him. Even if they did provide for him, they were never there for him emotionally.

He had to navigate through life by himself in his past life, but here he had a lot of support. From the women he's in a relationship with, to the friends he's formed bonds with, and future families he'll join, they were all there to support him.

...I already hinted at what 2/2 for his evolution is. If you don't remember, then... Penemue and Jin spoke about it. Azathoth even made a small interruption during it. That's all I'm going to hint with.

IN OTHER NEWS!

I will start another novel, but it will tie into this novel, and it's called:

Winds of Change DX.

This novel will mostly tell side stories that I won't have time to put in the main novel, which is here. There is no set word count for Winds of Change DX, however, these side stories will range from Volume 1 to 4 and further beyond.

Some examples will be the Riser bits I mentioned in Chapter 5 and 6, many of the shenanigans that happened in the [Pocket Dimension], Jin and everyone else's school life and also, the School Culture Festival, since I didn't have enough space to add everything I wanted.

And finally, I will be going back through Volume 1 to 4 to make a lot of edits. Since I had pretty short release schedules in the past, I had left some typos and mistakes here and there. TO THE ONE CORRECTING THOSE MISTAKES, I SEE YOU AND THANK YOU. I just didn't have time in correcting them.

That's why the release schedule slowed down. I've been editing them a bit more thoroughly. Of course, I'm not perfect, so some things still get through.

Anyway, I will use this time to fix them, so... Volume 5 may come out a little later than usual. But if I do have time, I will release some DX chapters instead. Again, thank you for the support so far and thank you.
