The epilogue chapters are pretty good. The revelations didn't feel like they added more questions than they answered. I get a small vindication in knowing my original theory wasn't completely invalid even though it was way off target. Kind of ironic that Mr.Howard in a way ultimately got what he wanted, through his child whom he wanted dead.
Kinda strange how Beth got literally lobotimized and this had seemingly no effect on her and was never brought up again.
also Kinda confused on what ultimately made "Mary"/No.53 switch sides? Was it just to assist a fellow Black Velvet agent?
This story has its hick ups but honestly wasn't an unenjoyable read
Thanks for the Translation!
