Web novel 5

Alternative Versions about the plot
The author had some ideas of how develop the plot of this volume, like:


 * Paul leaves Millis after the fight.
 * Buena village isn't caught up in the transition incident and Paul travels with his family + Sylphi to find Rudeus.
 * The family stays in the Buena village and only Paul comes to Millis and confronts Ruijerd.

Number of events
Originally he planned 4 events for this volume But in the end, he merge the events of Dragon King Kingdom with the Shirone Kingdom events, and to compensate that, he published the  Dragon king Kingdom Novel, a novel that he made around 2009. Because that story is a "prototype", some events and plot may dont match with Mushoku Tensei world.  
 * Dragon King Kigdom
 * Shirone Kingdom
 * Before entering Asura
 * In Asura Kingdom

Lilia Fate
He planned various cases for Lilia fate
 * His original plan was to kill Lilla with the Teleport incident, but from a narrative standpoint, the author find that the death of a family member need to be more impactful.
 * Lilia was with Paul in the events of web novel 5, but the idea was scrapped because it affected the reconciliation event between Paul and Rudeus.
 * Lilia was caught by bandits and was a slave in a Coal Mine in Dragon king Kingdom and with the help of hitogami, Rudeus finds her. The idea was scrapped because the author feels that not many readers may like that idea.

Aisha Fate
Is unknow if is related with one of the previous Lilia fate if (probably only 1 and 3)
 * Aisha managed to survive as a pickpocket in the King's Dragon Kingdom. She was rescued by the Rudeus and delivered by Paul's subordinates to Millis, where she was reunited with her father. She grew up with Norn there, and after a lot of things happened, they were reunited in the school chapters, were she found out that Rudeus was his brother

18+ scene
The author wrote an 18+ scene (probably Rudeus and Eris) for Nocturne (18+ site of WN) but felt embarrassed when he read it again, so he didn't post it.

Miscellaneous scapped ideas

 * After Rudeus is liberated by Zanoba, Rudeus develop his friendship with, Pax talking about NTR.
 * Fighting the King Dragon in the coal mines of the Dragon King Kigdom.

BL development (1)
He planned that his relation with Fitz sempai was developed more like a BL story (boys love, hiding more his true identity), but Syosetsu dont had a "BL Warning tag" so to prevent angry reader he scrapped the idea.

Nanahoshi Prototype (2-3)

 * Originally Nanahoshi was a child prodigy who graduated from MIT at the top of her class in junior high school and started attending a Japanese high school in her spare time (in other words, a genius girl).
 * Nanahoshi was the niece of Rudeus in his previous life.

Prototype Students (4-5)
How he planned the personality, skills and/or appearance of the students that Rudeus meets in the school
 * Cliff: A boy of the dwarf race. He is quiet, but can study. He is secretly in love with Elinase. He is actually a dwarf prince.
 * Elinalise: A young elf. She is good at ice-based magic. She often fights with Nanahoshi, No curse.
 * Ariel: more normal.
 * Nanahoshi: A masked girl. She can't use magic, but she's an experienced fighter. She's good at wrestling. She's studying summoning magic for some reason.
 * Zanoba: A doll-crazed goddess. She has an immense amount of magical power, but is unwilling to learn anything but doll-related magic.
 * Purcena: A puppy dog type girl. A genius at healing magic. She is always frightened, but when she sees meat, she drools and wags her tail.
 * Rinia: Same as now.

More School events (6)
The author planned to do more school related events like going to the back to the  forest as a special student to get credits, a competition with other schools or an evaluation meeting.
