Hi, sorry it took so long to answer you. Thank you for the thanks and I hope you enjoyed it. As for the story, I have mixed feelings about it: I think it did a lot of things really well (the politics, developing a cast of characters, expanding on the world-building), but I can see why it wouldn't be particularly popular. I also have a hard time liking Leo (which might be the point, of course). On the other hand, I thought that the actual story got better with each volume, and I was pretty disappointed that it stopped just as we got poisoning and assassinations, and more importantly, when we were getting back to Mephius. The first time I read the end of volume 4, I was sure it was setting things up for merging the two series... and then nothing for nearly two years. Overal, I enjoyed it, but I would never have translated it if hadn't been related to Rakuin no Monshou. So how about you? renuac
