Author wrote a summary at the end of the volume 8, I do a brief translation here. At the end of volume 7 to make the story more logical, author speed up the progress to not expand side characters stories, but in this volume everything was under control, the small volume was designed this way. The ending was planned before the book start, tarot club member’s step out their comfort zones to face challenges of the world, Klein and Azik switched role and position to complete a cycle. The last scene mystery vs innocence, dim vs sun, dark vs rebirth, you can taste a bit of Cthulhu then a bit of warmth, it also hinted awake is near. 5 gold coins, tarot members following stories, and all other not so import things in this book are going to be expanded in the 2nd book. The last chapter was an ending and also was a prologue for next. The timeline will be between Klein’s slumber or even earlier to his awake. Everything was planned long ahead. The reasons for writing a 2nd book are one, the setting was huge and too many things can be written about, if all squeeze in one book it make the story lack of distinction between primary and secondary. Two, tarot members can’t keep up with the level up as Klein, it will use more side stories to keep them level up reasonable, author doesn’t want make them level up so easy just because they are on Klein’s side. To balance that a 2nd book is needed to give them more time to grow up to the level so they can finally help Klein. They only finished half of the game, out of their comport zones they can finally explore the world to start the second half. This will be a new challenge for author as well. How can he be able to draw old readers back a few years later (because of the contract with Qidian, he will have to write another book after current one), this will test his ability to make the book enjoyable to read even for readers who didn’t read the first one. Author doesn’t have the experience of writing a sequel before, so the challenge that under same settings to write a new story that not going to repeatable to first one excites him. He is unclear how he is going to do it at the moment but there are some scenes already in his mind. Tarot members try to wake Klein using various methods, 5 coins, iron cigar case represents different parities, and these will be the base of the next story. New MC may meet a guy telling him old hunter story, see a beautiful half face at a place, hear the news a new continent been found, cross path with king parties of the sea, explore the legend of treasures, conflict with other transmigrators or sneakers. Author leaves a large space here; there is no need to worry the contents of next book. Author has no intension to open the west continent in next book, that can be left for the 3rd book but he is not guarantee there will be a 3rd. Why lord of mysteries resurrection plan is interrupted, author gave certain hints in the book. Why magic mirror Arrodes came out from Chaos sea, why it wants to follow Klein so badly and why Klein took it with him for slumber. (Sorry, I am too stupid to understand this part.) At the end author thanks for everyone for the support, let him have to opportunity to write out the story in his head. Hand on the chest, a bow.
