      I'm banking on this being the 3rd hint.

      alt text

      Accidentally summoned by an ancient map, first year high school student, Kiyokawa Hiroto is forced by the arrogant Lord of the castle to exterminate the vampire that has been haunting his castle. Unexpectedly befriending a girl from Mummy tribe, Hiroto skillfully managed to capture the Vampire with her help. However, he is soon framed by the Lord of the castle. Bravely and kindly aiming to be a Lord, the fantasy of being summoned to another world starts!

      Involves a Castle, vampires, and mummies.

          Yeah, I guess I'm not the only one thinking of that series, as someone posted about it in the light novel subreddit with The Mummy movie quote hint too about 2 1/2 hours before me. So they get first dibs at this if they're right, but we came to our conclusions independently. xD

            @terrence The "not part of the Nasuverse" hint ended up being for Yume Nikki.
            It was a reference to a minigame in it where you collect eggplants.

              You wut? Ha ha. Can you explain the Nasuverse connection there. xD

              I got nothing then. It could be anything, as random as a short story or minigame video game reference. Maybe it's"Not part of Horizon: Zero Dawn Universe" and not "Not part of the Horizons in the Middle of Nowhere series"? =P

                  Quick. What does Horizon translate to in Japanese?!

                        The way it was worded, I think it means a series that is already complete and has only 3 volumes: https://curiouscat.me/jnovelclub/post/322764398

                        The one you linked is still ongoing instead. I might be wrong though.

                          Yea, I was half-joking since Isekai Tensei is kind of a stalled series in Japan without a release since 2016.

                            I gotta check my Bookwalker lists to see if there's any good 3 volume series.

                            I assume 86 is ongoing, but that's 3 volumes iirc.

                            There's a few Mecha that are 3 volumes.

                            Edit: Did I hear that Genji of the Kendo series mentioned before as a request? I guess that's possible since it has 3. Well, we'll see soon enough, so I probably won't make a master list of predictions. =P

                                Lol, I guess I won't be picking it up anytime soon. It seems interesting but I don't like picking up novels that are not complete or updated (relatively) constantly. Almost 2 years since the last release is a bit too much for me :(

                                  I'll probably get it cause I want to read the series and support the author. (Perhaps encourage him to write more.)

                                    @terabyte It's episodic without an overarching plot. The 3rd LN is the final one for all intents and purposes.

                                      Oh, so it isn't really still "ongoing" as listed on https://j-novel.club/forum-link-removed? I might pick it up in that case, thought I'll probably wait until all 3 volumes are translated. I have enough novels in my queue to read right now anyway eheh

                                        New Hint on the announcement page.

                                        Better Late Than Never

                                        I'm already guessing Mushoku Tensei finally being licensed.
