The final book is set for release on September 30th. Even before this date, some friends had advised me against it, warning that this month is a "month of death"—a time when titans emerge—and suggesting I wait another month before publishing. My answer to them was: No.

One of the reasons for this firm stance is that I had promised many devoted readers, some of whom have waited patiently for a year and a half, that the new book would go live on September 30th, or even sooner, but never later! My writing skills may be ordinary, but I have never gone back on my word to my readers—not in the past, not now, and not ever!

The other reason is that upon hearing this news, a true, boiling fervor ignited within me! Why retreat? Why not charge forward! To stand with my book and contend with the heroes of the realm in November—what a magnificent joy in life that would be! When the vast sea surges, that is when a true hero’s mettle is revealed! How could I possibly avoid such spirited momentum, such a glorious opportunity? How could I yield ground???

So, here I am, bringing forth the culmination of a year and a half of labor.

Your enthusiasm has exceeded even my wildest expectations! Last week was only the first full week since the new book launched! Having gone live on September 30th, we managed to surge to 18th place on the weekly click rankings and 7th place on the weekly recommendation rankings between October 3rd and October 9th—a tremendous achievement!

Therefore, this week our goal is set: To climb all three charts! Let us push Ultimate Evolution even higher together! A burst of chapters today! Another burst tomorrow! I shall keep the lamp burning late into the night, churning out manuscript, and strive alongside all of you! I implore your support; I will show you the sincerity of my effort! (To be continued.
