An ordinary profession creates the world's strongest

To all the readers who have been looking forward to this work, I am truly sorry for keeping you waiting for so long!

What’s surprising is that the TV animation is about to release its third season (Editor’s note: the third season of the animation ended in February 2025.), and this epilogue will also be released at the same time. I am really very pleased.

This is all thanks to the support and anticipation of all of you, my readers and viewers. So, please let me first express my gratitude to you all. Thank you so much!

Now, let’s move on to the postscript. Readers familiar with the topic know that the web version of this postscript is still available.

When I write epilogues, I'm not as reserved as I am when I write biography. I just write when I feel like it, and in the way I want to write what I want. I lay out foreshadowing as I please, and I can make the story as big or small as I want. I don't even care about the chronological order. I'm free to do whatever I want! No, that's an exaggeration... Or maybe it's true?

In short, I did start writing the epilogue with such a relaxed attitude.

When I released the book version, I readjusted the story content of the web version, rearranged it in chronological order, and corrected the inconsistencies and unnaturalness.

As a result, the story seems to have become more heartwarming, sentimental, and sweet than the web version. The writing is also quite substantial, almost like a completely new work different from the web version.

Actually, I still have a lot more to say, and there are still many stories and characters I want to write...

Since this is the first epilogue, I should focus on the Nanyun family. I thought so, and as I wrote, I ran out of space in the blink of an eye...

Therefore, readers who are interested in the new world and new characters, and want to know what happens to Hajime and others, please be sure to check out the web version of the story!

The epilogue is a "new story in the Ordinary Series," fundamentally different from the serious atmosphere of the original story, and the setting is also modern Earth. I hope you enjoy it.

In addition, as I mentioned at the beginning, the third season of the animated version is also being broadcast, so please give it your support!

Finally comes the thank you part.

Thank you readers for always reading my work.

I would also like to thank Mr. Takaya Ki, Mr. RoGa, the editor-in-chief and proofreaders, and all the other people involved who worked hard to publish this book. Thank you all.

If we have the chance to meet again next time, please support me! Goodbye!

Volume 14 Special: New Campus Life with a Difficult Future

More than two weeks have passed since we resumed school.

"It's still quite eye-catching...but compared to before, the situation has calmed down a lot, right?"

Walking on the way to school, which still made her feel a little nostalgic, Kaori said to the person next to her with a wry smile.

"At least there are fewer people who still doubt us now. Right?"

Shizuku also nodded in agreement, also giving a wry smile.

In the first week after returning to school, the returnees are inevitably under a lot of attention, which is a bit tiring psychologically.

If it were simply out of curiosity, that would be fine. However, facing all the wild speculation and doubts about the psychological state of the crime victim is a real burden. If it weren't for the experience of the returnees in the other world, they might not be able to bear it.

"But, this reaction is to be expected. At least the number of people who treat us like a hot potato is gradually decreasing. We should be thankful that we're not being openly disliked."

"That's right, time will solve everything. Besides..."

Although it was still December, Shizuku's smile was as warm as the spring sun.

"Being able to walk to school with you like this again, Kaori, without any other worries... I'm already very satisfied."

Going to school with friends—it was just such an ordinary little thing, but it made Shizuku extremely happy, and her expression was truly happy.

Shizuku's tone sounded as if she was savoring this happiness.

"Hmmmm!" Shizuku's reaction excited Kaori, and she patted Shizuku's shoulder with a blushing face. Shizuku looked confused. Kaori narrowed her eyes at her.

"...Shizuku-chan, you're such a seductress."

"Why?!"

Shizuku seemed to have no self-awareness. Seeing Kaori shrug helplessly, Shizuku narrowed her eyes and glared at her.

"In the end, ordinary everyday life is still the best—I'm just saying that, right?"

"And what I'm saying is that my best friend is not only very handsome, but also very cute, but he has no idea of ​​himself."

"Hmmmm~~!" This time it was Shizuku who was too shy to speak.

Then again, they were on their way to school, so there were a lot of other students around. They were all watching the two girls' shy interactions.

"Ahh, I've had an overdose of respect!" "Thanks for the early morning treat!" "Our school's famous scene has truly returned!" "The playfulness between goddesses... hasn't changed at all, how wonderful!" "Even if it doesn't work now, I believe these two's affectionate embrace will one day be a cure-all!"

Second and third grade students also felt that normal daily life had returned.

In fact, among the many anxieties of others, many students are worried that they will never see such "lovey-dovey moments between goddesses" again in the future.

Kaori was equally unaware of her own feelings, not realizing how heartwarming her unabashed love for Shizuku was to the students. She also didn't realize how reassuring it was to the students that they still had the same relationship after going through such a difficult time.

The main reason why the people around them reacted to Kaori and Shizuku and the atmosphere softened was definitely because of their "respectful" relationship.

However, they don't know that although the relationship between the two has not changed, some of the relationships related to them have changed. For this reason, they need to be mentally prepared for the possibility of their brains being damaged in the future.

"I'm also happy to be able to go to school with Shizuku-chan. But... hehe, you're really looking forward to it, right?"

"Uh... Yeah, yeah. But wasn't it a bit too impulsive to agree to this?"

A single boy actually took turns going to and from school with Shizuku and Kaori, who were considered the two goddesses. Besides them, there were two other rumored beautiful transfer students. In other words, there were four girls in total who took turns going to and from school with that boy.

By then, the school day would be a chaotic hell. That hell was imminent!

"No, it's only a matter of time. Or, Shizuku-chan, do you want to start next month?"

"That...that won't do."

Shizuku blushed and shyly turned her head away. "That's so cute~" Kaori said with a smile.

Of course, those who knew nothing also started laughing.

Then, the two of them arrived at the school's main gate. There was a group of girls gathered in front of the gate, looking like a gang of thugs ready to storm another school. When they saw Shizuku, they immediately raised their lips eagerly.

“““““Sister ahh ...!””””””

The girls' unisoned cries echoed across the road in front of the school. A large group of high school girls rushed in, their footsteps rumbling like the earth, a majestic and powerful movement. To be honest, it was like the movement of a herd of wildebeest on the grassland...

Kaori maintained the same smiling expression and quickly retreated.

"Hey, Kaori! You want to abandon me again—"

"Good luck!"

Kaori responded with a bright smile and a thumbs-up. Shizuku reached out to her, but it was completely out of reach, and she was immediately drowned—no, completely surrounded by the girls.

“Good morning, sister!!”

"Uh, well, good morning."

Shizuku greeted him with a somewhat stiff tone. Just this alone made the girls scream with excitement.

Only these girls' attitude towards Shizuku remained unchanged before and after her disappearance, remaining as devoted as ever. They are the "soul sisters" whose souls are connected to Shizuku and who admire her as an older sister.

My sister is my sister, and her disappearance doesn't matter. As long as my sister returns safely, nothing else matters.

It was an indisputable fact that, thanks to these girls' unwavering adherence to their stance, Shizuku's suspicion and doubts were alleviated considerably. Their unwavering admiration even touched Shizuku somewhat.

So Shizuku couldn't help but hug a few of them, tears welling up in her eyes and her cheeks flushed with shyness. She said to them, "I'm back"... But maybe this wasn't the right thing to do.

Because the elder sister's appearance is enough to completely destroy the sanity of the younger sisters (who call themselves sisters)!

"Wow, I'm so glad you're safe today!" "Let me pick you up from the doorstep from now on!" "As long as we're here, you'll never be kidnapped again!" "Please let us be your constant protector!"

In that case, the previous statement of "nothing has changed" is actually incorrect. It should be said that "it's gotten worse." They're quite overprotective of Shizuku. Just gathering at the main gate now is already quite restrained. They originally planned to actually pick her up at her house every day, surrounding her like a gangster escorting a boss to school.

"Everyone, please don't gather together so early in the morning. It will disturb everyone's school──"

“““““Yes, sister!””””””

They were all very obedient, but that was also what made them so difficult to deal with. Before Shizuku could finish her words, the soul sisters lined up like a well-trained army, forming a path for people to pass through, their footsteps synced in unison.

Shizuku didn't mean that. She wanted them to disperse... Honestly, gathering at the school gate so early in the morning to block people's way was inappropriate. How many times do I have to tell her before she understands?

"Hey, Yaegashi, forget it, just go over there."

Shizuku trembled with shame. The teacher who was in charge of the school gate this morning said this to her with a wry smile.

"Ah, yes, it always happens. I'm really sorry..." Shizuku replied to the teacher with a guilty and respectful heart. The other students' caring eyes made her blush. Then, she hurried through the path that the spirit sisters had cleared just for her.

What would happen if I went to school alone with Hajime and I and ran into them?... Thinking of this, Shizuku started to have a headache.

However, regarding this, Shizuku's worries turned out to be in vain. More accurately, it was because peace couldn't be maintained until then.

Because, after school on that day, Yue kissed Hajime deeply in front of the male students who came over to show their affection, intentionally or unintentionally, to warn them off...

Shia and Kaori followed suit, seemingly taking it for granted, urging Shizuku to follow suit with their eyes. Meanwhile, the spirit sisters hid in the corner of the corridor, staring at them with dark, empty eyes. "Sister, you're not like that, are you?" "We believe you!" their eyes seemed to say.

After much hesitation, Shizuku bravely stepped forward and kissed Hajime, regardless of the looks from her soul sisters. Shizuku didn't want to be left out by Yue and the others because she cared about the looks from others.

“Hajime, I’m sorry. Please let me act spoiled just this once.”

"Since you've said that, I can only accept it."

Not only around the corner of the corridor, but also in the surrounding classrooms and outside the windows, a large group of female high school students surrounded them simultaneously, walking with the steps of a ghost and the expressions of murderous demons. Hajime could only laugh dryly.

One of the schoolgirls even grabbed a crowbar-like weapon that she had gotten from somewhere, and her twin ponytails were jumping wildly, disregarding the laws of physics.

It is only natural that Hajime's new school life cannot escape the struggle with his soul sisters.

Volume 14 Special: Sister Hauriya from Mr. Abyss Gate's House

"My name is Lana Infilina of the Storm! I'm the lover of Lord Abyss (Gate of the Abyss), known as the Shadow of the Headhunters and the Joker of the Demon King!"

Regardless of the content of her lines, her swift turns and poses, coupled with her beautiful body and beauty that were like works of art, were truly stunning.

"My heart is filled with joy! Therefore, I dare to conclude that this encounter is—"

Finally, add a proud smile.

"It must be fate."

So handsome. So perfect. At least that's what Lana herself seemed to think when she came to visit the Endo household.

Her rabbit ears and tail were also stretched out proudly. For such a Lana—

““““Uh, yes.””””

Everyone in the Endo family was stunned, their mouths agape, their voices wailing in astonishment. There was Endo's father and mother, the elder Endo, who looked at his younger brother, who had a bunny-eared beauty, as if he were a zesū warrior fallen to the dark side, and the younger Endo, who, until the very end, had believed it was all a misunderstanding and self-indulgent behavior, and who had looked upon him with pity.

No wonder this happened──Kousuke thought, covering his blushing face with his hands.

"This is Hauria. Are you mentally prepared to face such a depth?"

Lana-san asked, flicking her hair and squinting her eyes. Furthermore, she had already undergone intense training before this, relearning normal speech and behavior, and had greeted the Endō family in a normal, common-sense manner. Even so, she couldn't compromise on this point. She had to make her lover's family understand this common personality trait among the clan, so she had to demonstrate it to them now.

The Endo family looked at each other, their expressions clearly unsure of how to react. And that was only natural—Kousuke thought.

"But...everyone, I can control myself. I, I will try my best. So, please, please get along with me..."

Ms. Lana was coy and uneasy. Her cheeks flushed and she looked uneasy, and she kept stealing glances at the Endo family.

The beautiful sister with rabbit ears from another world looks very adorable.

"The contrast is so great that I'm almost catching a cold," Endo-chan thought, and Kousuke couldn't agree more.

"My relationship with her and my feelings for her are exactly as I just explained. There's also one more thing I forgot to tell you."

Seeing his family members full of question marks, Kosuke smiled bitterly and spoke to smooth things over.

"Lana is able to sense my presence normally, and she is always aware of my presence and will never forget it."

“Welcome to our family, Ms. Lana!”

The whole family agreed immediately, without hesitation. Because for the Endo family, who were worried about Kosuke's future, a woman like Lana was definitely Kosuke's true love no matter how you looked at it! Seeing the Endo family's smiling faces and their open-hearted attitude of accepting everything, Lana's eyes widened in surprise at first, and then -

“Thank you, thank you everyone…!”

A beautiful and charming smile reveals a heart full of peace of mind and joy.

Volume 14 Special: Sonobe Yuka's Youth Troubles

"Hmm, I don't understand the latest trends at all!"

"Looks like we need to do some serious research. Otherwise, we'll be completely out of touch with the topic if we continue like this."

The two of them were discussing this quietly in a fast food restaurant in the heart of a busy city, like an elderly person worried about how to communicate with young people.

The two people pouting their lips are Nana Miyazaki and Taeko Sugawara.

"But it's been a while since we've been shopping in Japan. I'm really happy to be able to go shopping together as a group of three."

Sonobe Yuka held her chin in her hand and smiled as she spoke, her expression as if she was savoring the present moment of happiness.
