Afterword

A man should not give excuses . I heard these words once, I will not say anything . However, please allow me to say one thing -- if my memory serves me correctly, the current date should be 17th month of 2015, right?

Also, I recall hearing someone say, Prearrangements are not fixed, thus they arent the same as the final outcome . Ah, what a charming phrase! How full of romance it is!

. . . Im very sorry .

Volume 11 will not be like this one . There is no intention of making you wait, so I hope everyone can find it in themselves to forgive me . Also, the next volume is -- well, anyone whos read all the way to the end, it cant be helped if its written down . . In addition, volume 11 will feature a much-awaited special edition . Anyone whos seen the anime will understand . Its a new 30

30 minute-long episode of Pure Pure Pleiades, isnt that surprising?!

Then, how do you feel after reading Volume 10, everyone?

How different is running a country from running an organization?

Ainz started from his interests, but how would you all do it? Maruyama is very interested in the answer . If it were me, I would do this . If it were me, I would do that . I would be very glad to hear everyones opinions on that matter .

And if it should turn out that someone created another work based

work based on this, or even another original light novel, I would be even more delighted . Because in truth, thats Maruyama for you .

And then, you already know of the popularity poll from the tail end of the book . Please tell me the characters you like best . Unlike ordinary popularity polls, the fact that the first place is already decided is something which has never been seen before .

I wont give extra appearances to unexpectedly popular characters . This is simply to see which characters everyone likes characters everyone likes best .

Next, the people I want to thank:

Sorry for ruining your schedule, so-bin-sama . Thank you very much for this .

My sincere thanks to Ohaku-sama the proofreader, the designers, Chord Design Studio-sama and the editor, F-dsama . Also to honey, my friend from my student days, thank you as always .

Most importantly, thank you to all you readers out there . The story is now completely divorced from the WN, so I would be very happy if you liked it .
