This is Meikyou Shisui, here once again to express my sincerest thanks to all of you for reading and/or purchasing this eleventh volume of Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon: My Trusted Companions Tried to Kill Me, But Thanks to the Gift of an Unlimited Gacha I Got LVL 9999 Friends and Am Out for Revenge on My Former Party Members and the World!
Thanks to all your support, the Unlimited Gacha series has an anime in the works! I’m deeply grateful to all of you.
Now, on to the acknowledgments!
First of all, thank you, tef, for the illustrations for this volume. In particular, I want to mention how Aoyuki, the star of the eleventh volume, was front and center on the cover illustration. You made her look cute yet majestic, which was magnificent to behold. You have my heartfelt appreciation for creating such wonderful cover art.
Next to thank is the editorial team at HJ Novels. Thank you once again for assisting me in multiple ways when I needed it. By a happy coincidence, HJ Novels’ tenth anniversary coincided with the announcement of the Unlimited Gacha anime. There’s nothing better than two good pieces of news intersecting with each other, so congratulations HJ Novels on your tenth year!
Due to new chapters of the Unlimited Gacha manga version arriving on the Magazine Pocket app every Tuesday, I would also like to extend my gratitude to Takafumi Oomae for lending his superb artistry to drawing the manga, as well as to the Kodansha editorial team for publishing it. The newest volume of the manga (the fourteenth) was released in the same month as the eleventh volume of the novel. The newest manga volume features the exploration of the vast ruins underneath the Dwarf Kingdom, plus some other surprises you don’t want to miss. So thank you very much for bringing this amazing manga to life.
And just in case you didn’t know, the fourteenth volume of the manga contains a bonus short story written by me. You’re welcome to check it out, along with the rest of the volume.
Last but not least, I’d like to thank all of my readers! As with the previous volumes, I’ve written a bunch of new scenes for everyone to enjoy, including those who had already read the web novel version. It is only thanks to your support that we’re able to keep publishing new volumes. I’ll keep working hard on my novel series, so I hope you will all continue to support me!
PS: Just like in the previous volumes, I have written a bonus story that is available to everyone who purchased this novel. To access the bonus story, go to my activity updates on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website and click on the entry made in November 2024. The password for this volume is: aoyuki.
