after the credits it actually goes on to say something about the "new story" making it fairly clear that they were referring explicitly to Myne's story being completed but Rozemyne's only just getting started.
That could well have meant "to be continued in the novels."
I really don't think that's the case. If it were then there'd be no reason to say "and the story ends here" before the credits and "well actually, it's going to continue" afterwards. They could've just left out the bit after the credits if that were the case.

I'm pretty sure that was more of an artistic flourish than anything. And implying there was no story afterwards would run counter to one of the goals of even making some animes, to sell the source material, so they need to show that it's not the absolute end.

Another think to keep in mind is that both of those slides were written in English... in the original JP source anime. Japanese writers and storyboard artists don't always have the best English skills, so what they intended to put on those slides may have been translated to English incorrectly. Not necessarily, but just something to keep in mind.

Looks like the US home video release of Season 3 was silently added to Rightstuf/Crunchyroll Store on 14 October or 15 October 2022, last 24 hours. No news article unlike first and second season combo release from Crunchyroll.
Planned release is a placeholder date in January 2023 (Region A) with a pre-order deadline of December 20 at Crunchyroll. No information yet on Region B home video release yet.

All of these blurays Crunchyroll are releasing are regions A|B, meaning they’ll work in either region of the world.
