Idle Quotes
The Light Novel Society...
- "Interested in joining the Light Novel Society?"
Thoughts
Aryadeva's thoughts can be accessed by using Nahida's Elemental Skill, All Schemes to Know.
- Aryadeva: (My manuscript got rejected again... Those editors at Yae Publishing House are really strict...)
Dialogue
- Aryadeva: Hello, I'm planning to set up a Light Novel Society. Are you interested?
A Light Novel Society?
- Aryadeva: There are many societies in the Akademiya, but no Light Novel Society. It's strange, isn't it?
- Aryadeva: Light novels don't seem popular in Sumeru, but it is the Nation of Wisdom after all. There shouldn't be any gaps in our fields of knowledge.
- Aryadeva: I am not exactly a researcher of the Akademiya, but I am second to none when it comes to light novels.
- Aryadeva: Should we have an initiation ceremony or something like that?
- Who are you...
- Aryadeva: I haven't studied in the Akademiya, but I'd like to consider myself a Herbad in the field of light novels.
- Aryadeva: However, there is no school in the Akademiya that awards diplomas in light novels.
- Aryadeva: That's why it's pertinent to have my book published by Yae Publishing House. My book's title is "Can a Trainee Combat Mage Whose Normal Attack Summons a Jinni that Will Start a Full-Out Free-For-All Really Graduate From the Magic Akademiya?"
- Aryadeva: I didn't expect my manuscript to be rejected again. Those Yae Publishing House editors are really strict...
About the Kory Drums...
- (Unlocks after completing Khvarena of Good and Evil)
- Aryadeva: How did you hear about the Kory Drums? Did the Adventurers' Guild tell you?
- We're adventurers that specialize in solving particular problems.
- Aryadeva: Oh, well that's good to hear. If that's the case, there's a burden off my chest.
- Aryadeva: You should have already seen that fool child Nasejuna, yes? The fact that you're standing here means that his plot failed.
- Aryadeva: Before, when Nasejuna asked me about the Kory Drums, I knew he was up to no good.
- Aryadeva: Hence, I deliberately hid the fact that I had one of the Kory Drums and entrusted it to an acquaintance I have in the Akademiya...
- Aryadeva: The glory days of the Order of Skeptics are bygone legends by now. Rather than harboring their dangerous delusions, its [sic] better to see their desires manifest in light novels instead.
- Please excuse me now...
- Aryadeva: If you want to join the society, just let me know.
Trivia
- Aryadeva was a Mahayana Buddhist monk, a disciple of Nagarjuna and a Madhyamaka philosopher.
