After thinking about it, I think I should add a closing statement. It's not really appropriate to always leave things unsaid until I have something to say.
Thank you for reading this far. Liu Lang's story has finally come to an end. Of course, a few more epilogues will be added later to make it completely finished.
Compared to my first book, this book is hundreds of times better than I imagined. There are some readers who have supported me from beginning to end. They encouraged me when I wanted to give up, preventing me from going down this path alone like I did before.
Especially with the song, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to keep going after 300,000 words.
I saw someone leave a comment saying, "How is this supposed to be almost finished? How did it go through all that trouble and end up with hundreds more chapters?"
Actually, I still can't let go of it. Sometimes I get so engrossed in writing that I get really into it. When I used to read novels, no matter how well or poorly they were written, what I hated most was a bad ending. In my memory, the two books that I felt regretful about had bad endings were one about the Demon Emperor and the Twelve Zodiacs, and the other about a reincarnated cat demon.
What I can do is try my best to avoid leaving the project unfinished, which is what I wanted to achieve from the beginning.
But later on, not many people read the first book, so I treated it as something I wrote for myself. The second book got some readers, and they even left comments to support me. Since that's the case, I'll try my best to finish this one too.
In the past nine months of writing, the deeper I went, the more profound my insights became. I used to like to make an outline first and then write along with the outline. Later I realized that I didn't need an outline. It's best to let the writing flow naturally.
By the time I realized this, the word count had already exceeded one million.
I know that Tomato's mechanics are such that you can see the ending from the first book test.
But as I said before, because someone supports me, even if it's just one person, I will choose to continue writing after leaving a comment. That's what I told myself at the time, even if this persistence seems meaningless.
Well, that's enough about my own affairs.
Regarding the ending of this book, I think that's enough.
I used to have this feeling when I read books: many books like to describe one map and then switch to another. Even if there is some background information, this sense of disjointedness makes me feel very awkward.
Therefore, I neither want to nor intend to write about the universe. So, I will add about the war between the Blue Star Alliance and the Void in the afterword.
The epilogue is also short, basically just something I wrote down as it came to mind, which can be considered a happy ending for the characters in the book.
Personally, I really like dark-themed novels, but the endings don't seem to be very good.
People read books to have fun, and I didn't want to leave a huge cliffhanger at the end, so I didn't write any endings like dying alone, wandering the universe, or never being able to go home.
Of course, there are still many shortcomings in this book. I have seen the comments from those readers, and what they said makes sense. However, once the initial draft of this book is finalized, it is very difficult to change it unless it is completely revised.
So I will try a different style in my next book, but I need to take some time to prepare before I start the next book.
Who didn't start as a novice writer, right?
Thank you again for reading this far, and thank you all for your support. I hope we will meet again someday, and I wish you all and yourselves all the best.
