Chohokiteki Kaeru

Nothing in this world is more dangerous than a witch. The epitome of fear and terror, they can summon floods on a whim, conjure balls of fire out of the air, or even destroy entire countries overnight. Incur their wrath, and no one is safe. At least, that’s what everyone thinks, and it’s the very reason they all want Siasha dead. After yet another violent battle for her life, she teams up with Zig, a mercenary, and they depart for unknown lands to find somewhere she can live in peace. But is the pair any match for the lost magic and vicious monstrosities that lie ahead?

After working with the mafia to halt a rising drug problem in the city of Halian, Zig is back to protecting Siasha - but with a new wariness of Claritism, a doctrine that asserts demi-humans are subhuman. Aware that Claritists would persecute Siasha for her witch nature if it were discovered, Zig gathers intel while keeping the religion and its followers at arm's length. However, after sharing a meal with Urbas, a scalefolk demi-human, Zig is targeted directly. So much for neutrality!With the help of the network they've established in the city, Zig and Siasha storm the church to confront Yaesar, a Claritist confessor with a sinister agenda. Can the witch and mercenary fight against the deep-rooted prejudice festering beneath the city's surface…or will they soon find themselves on the wrong side of the allies they've gathered?

THE WITCH''S RAMPAGEWhen a monstrosity above her rank shows up, Siasha is seated with some undesired downtime. Making the best of a boring situation, she and Zig head to the morning market, only to bear witness to a scuffle between humans and demi-humans. But to the inhuman witch Siasha and mercenary Zig, these interspecies tensions are none of their concern?or so they think. They soon learn that these conflicts are far more deep-rooted than they could?ve ever imagined. And as one incident after another pulls them deeper into the fray, it?s only a matter of time before Siasha is pushed over the edge…and shows everyone why witches are so feared.
