In case anyone wants to read the web novel here is the source link:

Also here is a google translate version

https://ncode-syosetu-com.translate.goog/n4830bu/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp

I just pasted the web novel link into google translate as shown in image bellow. Do be warned it has a ton of gramatical errors and is not a subsitute for the light novel. Its only really usefull if your unable to wait and want a high level overview of the plot.

Information on [P5V12] (mypage.syosetu.com)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 
 

Sensei's newest blog post has some information on P5V12.

There will be tons of added chapters from Rozemyne pov. So much that the book won't fit any SS chapters which is quite a lot, as the final volume will be half new content. Prologue will be Ferdinand pov and epilogue will be Lutz pov (which was also the last chapter of the WN).

It's both nice and a shame. Nice because Rozemyne pov is always interesting and it is going to be nice to get more of that. A shame, because the SS chapters are usually very good and give a different perspective to events. Let's hope we will also get other perspectives in a later volume that focuses on short stories, so we'd get the best of both worlds.

P5V12We're getting another Ferdinand pov. Let's hope that Memories will still mostly be from Rozemyne pov.

...from Bertilde pov. Based on the poll sensei had on Twitter a while ago, the theme of the chapter will be noble apprenticeship.

I had to unhide the Webnovel community because changes in the lemmy backend made it undiscoverable. In order to keep the other communities spoiler free until we get a proper spoiler tag use this Method to post memes. Any post not adhering to this will be deleted by me but that's about it, I can't fault you for not using features that don't exist

P5V12 will begin with Memories chapters of the WN, so there will only be eight WN chapters to cover before the end of the story. This will lead to about two thirds of P5V12 being original content written for the LN. What kind of chapters do you hope P5V12 will bring with itself?

My personal biggest hope is that we will get an Elvira pov of the engagement ceremony. I want her to explain more about the words Ferdinand used to reply to Rozemyne's proposal as well as analyze Rozemyne's proposal.

Another thing that I hope to see is getting info about at least some of the nobles that will work as Rozemyne's retainers in the future. She will need quite a lot of new retainers now that she is an Aub and she brought rather few from Ehrenfest. She only has three scholars and two attendants with her, and that will not be enough in the slightest.

It would be fun to see some of the archduke conference during which Rozemyne is officially appointed as Aub Alexandria. "I am the precedent" and all that.

Sensei also teased on Twitter a little bit about the first kiss between Ferdinand and Rozemyne, so I would love to learn how that actually came to be alongside other events of the archduke conference where Rozemyne will be made the Aub.

One thing that I feel has been left hanging is Barthold. I want some closure to that because I feel like it is a rather important part of Wilfried's character arc. I would also like to see something about the commoners of Ehrenfest as they are leaving and what they will be leaving behind. Benno pov of packing up or Milda pov of getting trained to take his place or something like that would be golden. I would not mind a Freida pov either.

What are you looking forward to?

Will this girl's shenanigans ever stop? LOL

I did not expect Wilfried to accept the loss of his position this easily, I am positively surprised by it. Especiall by how supporting he is of Charlotte

Confused baroque guy meme.

Text: It seems that he keeps a book to keep it quiet for two days after the fever has fallen. "If you do not make it a good boy, the book will be checked" was told.

I'm reading chapter 575 of the Web Novel (MTL, kinda corrected here by me).

Light yellow magic is on the feypaper. I could possibly copy it as it is. Striking and trembling with emotion, I looked at the part of the range that I designated.

"Maybe I can keep copying like this? Could I? Okay." Copy, and paste!

I moved my fingers in unison, staring at the range specified part. The crest split in two parts: One part in the original place, and one part that moved according to the movement of my fingers. And when I moved it to the blank part and specified the tonne and destination with my fingers, there was a new second crest.

"Wow, wow! Seriously, isn't this convenient?"

Rozemyne just discovered magical copy / paste. Why do I feel like Ferdinand tapping his temple when she does something bizarre?
