Volume 4 - CH Intro

Character Introduction [For this Novel]

Tanikawa Sakuya

This coffee shop father&daughter pair actually exist in the world of the original game but they did not appear in the main story.

They did not appear even as mob characters.

They are not related by blood but this counts as her being Hideyori’s relative—–maybe?

Since she’s the same age as Hideyori, she’s a character that Hideyori can talk about anything with.

I(The author) want to portray what victims of Gift-related crimes are like in this world so I created her character.

Since she’s a character that was created just for that, her role in the story is over.

If you are her fan, please consider it lucky when you see her return.

In this timeline, it was before Sakuya went to junior high that Emi beat her half-death.

In a serious fight against Emi, she would be instantly killed. (That also applies in this novel……or it’s supposed to be like that anyway.)

(TLN: Yes, she will come back in future arcs)

Master

I created him because I want to give Hideyori an adult he can rely on and someone that can retort to his antics.

It wouldn’t be a romantic comedy if Hideyori just talked to him alone right? That was what I was thinking so I gave him a daughter.

A male character like him is pretty flexible to use in a story.

In Hideyori’s case, his setting is that he’s used his Gift to manipulate his uncle and he doesn’t like him very much so Master also serves as a father figure to him.

His wife died shortly after she gave birth to Sakuya so he’s been spoiling his daughter.

TLN: Phew, that’s all for now. See you in Vol.5
