I wrote the beginning of this work four years ago, but it was only the beginning and was posted online. Now it seems childish to read the words from back then, so I have to rewrite them all this time.
Some people say that my writing about the psychology of a group of junior high school students is too dark and complicated, but I don't agree with it at all. I was under sixteen years old when I started to conceive of it four years ago.
This time I have changed from the single third person pronoun to the interchange of first and third person. French popular novels have a great influence on my writing style. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the French martyrs.
The whole novel is based on the theme of revenge. The Grudge of Monte Cristo was the blueprint for my writing. This time I took out the novel and studied the layout of the whole book, and started again.
The fifteen-year-old protagonist returns to his palace-like home from England, ready to take revenge on his classmates and sister who framed him three years ago. But this time when he returned, he was framed by his sister again and almost fell into hell. Under the mercy of God, with the help of the wealth of a rich country, after the baptism and refinement of time, she was reborn from the ashes and reappeared incognito in front of her former enemies and destroyed their lives. After everything was over, she was obsessed with revenge and left her life full of holes.
This time I tried not to limit the world I painted to the upper class where people were feasting and reveling, but I tried my best to show the whole picture of the current society and complete an ukiyo-e. The goal is ambitious and the task is arduous.
I didn't expect this work to become famous, at least I didn't want to become famous myself. That's it, しみにしてて.
