Three short stories, all set after the main storyline, one about crafting an intelligent doll, the other about a trip to Millis and the final one about visiting Sword Sanctum. I liked all three of the stories, all three showing a bit about Rudeus and his family's life as well as some of his main companions. Some interesting stories for fans of the series.

Even more great short stories. It makes me want a sequel series following Lara and her party when they go into their final battle. But for now, I could have an infinite number of these side stories and still enjoy them, in just greedy.

It´s great learning more about the children
Fun lighthearted stories, and Lucie is such an interesting character with her whole mindset being revealed
Also, the Sword sanctum is the best
Didn´t think I could like Gino as much but he became one of my favourite characters

The extended epilogue continues. I really enjoyed all the stories, especially the one about Ann. I’m always happy to revisit this world.

I'm a bit surprised at how much I enjoyed these slice of life side stories, but it just shows how well written the characters were and how much I came to like them.

4.5 stars, it started rough with the misunderstanding plot which usually frustrates me alot and ended up with me pausing the book for a few months. The rest of the stories were really great. I really liked the one from Orsted's pov and really wish we had more like that because he is an extremely interesting character. I like that the kids are starting to feel alot more like there own characters and look forward to seeing more of them after a time skip. I accidentally heard the first few lines of the next book and feel very excited to listen to that but worried about the wait between books as to my knowledge it is the latest book.
Overall, I am very glad this epilogue series exists and am excited for more.

Delicious volume. I always enjoyed anything related with Rudy's grandma in Millishion, her presence keeps me on my toes for some reason. Her coming to terms and accepting everyone in Rudy's family despite being a demon racist is nice to see, and even taking a liking to Lara was cute! and the little bit with Aisha saving Ars... I'm writing this after having read the next volume, so this in hindsight was good foreshadowing haha. Loved the sword sanctum visit too, Gino was always a nobody, but my man locked in for his wife and even still has the skills to protect his life with her.
