I just realized I forgot to say the end at the end of the last chapter. Well, the last chapter was the last chapter of the book. (Better late than never, eh?) There’re a few sponsored chapters that I never really got around to doing, so I’ll be writing those as side stories (once again). Expect them to come in the coming days (still haven’t really decided on which characters I’d like to give side chapters to).
Book 4 of Blue Mage started off as an interesting thought experiment for me. There are so many stories about people from our world migrating to a different one during the medieval, so I thought, why not have people from a different world migrate to ours in roughly that time period? And I pretty much encountered the same flaws that plague those kinds of Japanese isekai novels. Now I know why those authors talk about food and making soy sauce so much; there’s only so much one can write about when the characters are too overpowered for their setting.
Anyway, I’m sure most of you have realized the time period I placed them in. It was the year 1521 in May. I accelerated a few events (like Suleiman’s war campaign, Thomas Müntzer’s role and the German Peasant’s War of 1524-1525), and I also took some liberties with the Zhengde Emperor’s death (he fell into the yellow river while drunk and died of an illness, but as you all know, in the story, he recovered from his illness only to have an unfortunate encounter with Mary falling from the sky). Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the story, and as always, thanks for reading!

Thank you for another amazing adventure! This is by far my favorite book series I’ve ever read and I can’t wait for the next adventure!
