..An artist who wanted to capture Michael's image, maybe? I don't know.

idk either but the boy's name is Eved

so

possibly another remnant?

I mean, it's still an unusual name, even if it's the only one of Enoch's names that's even remotely normal-sounding now

and he wouldn't just toss a red herring out for no reason?

if I could read better I would be more certain lmao....

It's fine! I'm sure we'll figure it out eventually. ^^;

I say 'we', like I can actually help in any translation process

..But, while tossing out a red herring wouldn't be beyond Sawaki if it had a reason, I'm just picturing Michael finding and befriending this remnant of Enoch, even though he's not sure what to make of him, since he feels strange and Michael's memory is still pretty wiped, as far as I know.

Meanwhile, Zerachiel and the others try to figure out the best way to fuse him to Galiel without their boss figuring out or missing him.

Speculation? Absolutely. I'm pretty sure I'm wrong here, but it's fun to think about.

haha who knows. We don't even know if Zerachiel and gang are even aware of the search for all the remnants yet

I'd like to think they are, but, like you said, who knows. All we have is bits wild information that came out of nowhere and whatever speculation we make outta that. xD;

I will be thoroughly reading this after this week is over

Alright then! Take your time though! No need to feel like I'm harping on you for a translation or information.

I just saw the new book and felt the need to gush about how excited I was, since, apparently any ES update makes me happy nowadays for some reason, even though I can't read it. xD;;

tell me, I mean, just look

the boy on the cover looks like a young Sawaki

…

GOD DAMMIT SAWAKI

Lmfao

I still think he looks like a particularly fluffy Satan too

and P5 protag

even the same eye color

I honestly thought that he looked like the Persona 5 protag, but I just chalked it up to coincidence, like Flora looking like a recolored Miku.

..He kind of does look like a fluffy Satan though! :3

..Though, hearing 'fluffy Satan' just made me think of Satan as a sheep.

pfff, Satan sheep

Useful to keep in a garden, so long as you keep an eye on him. :3

..Counting Satan Sheep as you sleep.

one demon gluttonous sheep, two demon gluttonous sheep…

Three Demonic, gluttonous sheep, eating all your bad dreams..

eating you

..And Satan Sheep quickly turns a nice nap into the more ominous meaning of 'sweet dreams'.

Don't eat us though, Satan Sheep! We don't taste good. ><;

Satan sheep wants nothing more than eat Lucifel

Well, we don't want Satan Sheep to eat him either.

We'll just have to constantly make him hay duplicates and hope he doesn't notice.

Hay Adamo

lol hay Adamo

Farmer Michael using them to keep the Sheep and Crows occupied as he works on his own crop and looks about for Lucifel.

scarecrow Adamo

..Of course, now I'm just picturing them hopping around with a mind of their own, a la Turnip Head from Howl's Moving Castle.

Zerachiel occasionally gives them snazzy things to wear that may or may not be silly.

I'm thinking of the WIzard of Oz

..Now that you mention it, that's actually a good idea! :3

Scarecrow Adamo wanting an individual brain, the Tin Devil wanting his heart back, and..Gil the Lion wanting true courage to actually ask the questions that are important to him and be honest towards those he cares about.

I would read it

I kind of want to write it, now that you put the idea in my brain, so I'll see what I can do.

I'll let you gobble it up as quickly as I can!~

At the very least, this gives me an excuse to read the novel, since I haven't yet. ><;

take your time~

I will!~
