Chapter qa1: Author’s Q&A 1

[Turning] Collection of Questions and Answers

Q. I'm curious how you decided on the names "Kishiar" and "Yuder"! Do the two names have meanings?

Since the protagonist Yuder has a rigid personality, I thought it would be nice if the name had a contrasting softer feel. (Sorry Yuder) Fortunately, it came to me right as I started writing, but Kishiar was actually difficult to finalize until the very end, giving me trouble. I think each name will have a good meaning in the work.

Q. What are Kishiar and Yuder's favorite foods?

(ex. cake, lemon, mixed grain rice, etc.)

Kishiar: The type to consciously try not to have likes or dislikes with food.

Yuder: Generally prefers desserts with a sweet taste, but is not aware of it.

Q. Is there anything/action that Kishiar and Yuder particularly hate?

(ex. eating sweet and sour pork with sauce poured on, pineapple pizza, going straight to sleep after training without washing, etc.)

Kishiar: Being greedy beyond reason

Yuder: Not working hard when you are able to

Q. I'm curious about Kiolle's feelings when Yuder buried and pulled him out like a radish!

He was in a trance due to Nahan's illusion, so he couldn't feel anything other than pain, but if he had been in his right mind, wouldn't it have been filled with things like, for a commoner, how dare you humiliate me like this~ (rest omitted). ^^

Q. Is the nickname "The Living Rose of the Cavalry" for Gakane actually a story circulating in the Cavalry?

I'm curious how Gakane would react to his nickname!

It's an actual circulating nickname. Gakane knows about it too. Of course, he doesn't like it very much, so when someone calls him that, he asks them not to with an awkward face that looks like he's smiling but not really, but it doesn't work well.

Q. I'm curious about Kishiar's first impression when he saw Yuder entering the Cavalry's testing ground!

His attitude and posture were different in many ways, making him interesting.

Q. Excluding the face, what is Yuder's favorite body part of Kishiar?

(ex. six-pack, thigh muscles, nose hair, big toe, left earlobe, etc.)

I was going to write face, but I read it again. I see... If excluding that, I think it would be his hands.

Q. What clothes do Yuder and Kishiar wear as pajamas?

Yuder seems to wear simple everyday clothes with slightly short sleeves and pants, while Kishiar has dedicated high-quality pajamas consisting of a long shirt and long pants, befitting a duke.

Q. Is there anything that even the perfect Kishiar can't do?

He has difficulty with things that can't be done well just by learning and imitating. This would include creative work that requires artistry. Rather than burning the soul of creation, he seems to prefer recognizing and supporting those who are good at it.

Q. I'm curious about Yuder and Kishiar's blood types!

Yuder: A

Kishiar: AB

Q. It was mentioned that Yuder learned to dance in his life before regression, I'm curious about Yuder's dancing skills!

= Average. Kishiar taught him dancing.

Q. Among the characters in Turning, is there a character that is particularly difficult for the author to handle?

Kishiar always moves in a different direction than planned, but that direction always leads to better results, so it makes me rewrite the story many times. He's a being that is difficult but also thankful in a way.

Q. I'm curious what would happen if Yuder from Turning and Mist Muheon [TL: Another novel from the author] met,,, hehe

Since Karf always becomes curious when he sees magic (or something similar) that he doesn't know about, he would probably want to have a conversation with Yuder about his ability and learn something. Yuder also seems like he would show interest in Karf's magic. However, due to Yuder's physical age and soul age being different, it would be an odd problem of who would be the older brother between the two. ^^;; It was an unexpected question, but I enjoyed imagining it. Thank you.

Q. I'm curious about Yuder's MBTI personality type!

ISTJ The Logistician

Q. I'm curious about Kishiar's MBTI personality type!

ENTJ The Commander

: Kishiar seems to be about half correct, but Yuder was so identical that even I was surprised when I took the test.

(I took it on the test site you informed me of)
