BURNING BRIDGES ​The Nebulis Sovereignty is in flames. For the first time since its founding, the Paradise of Witches is raided by Imperial forces. It’s Imperial solider versus Sovereign witch. Saint Disciples against Purebreds. Unit 907 toe-to-toe with the House of Hydra. While war indiscriminately obliterates all, Iska squares off against Alice. Finding each other on the battlefield, the two discover their circumstances have changed for the worse. As paradise falls, they face a choice that might alter the course of their relationship forever…

"A great war has raged for years between the scientifically advanced Empire and Nebulis, the realm of the witches-until the youngest knight ever to receive the title of the Empire's strongest meets the princess of the rival nation. Though they are sworn enemies, the knight is taken by her beauty and dignity, and the princess is moved by his strength and way of life."--

As dawn breaks and ends the night of the witch hunt, the Nebulis Sovereignty finds that it's sustained nearly insurmountable damage. Its citizens are pointing fingers at the royal family, demanding they take responsibility for the chaos and accelerate the Conclave to select a new queen. Meanwhile, Alice entrusts Iska with the task of rescuing Sisbell, the only one capable of revealing who is responsible for orchestrating the Imperial raid. Iska's next destination? The research facility run by the House of Hydra!

Break free...if you canGetting assigned to a special mission to infiltrate the Sovereignty was already more than Iska could handle, but with Captain Mismis becoming a witch, his list of problems just keeps getting longer. To make matters even worse, Iska finds himself dragged to the Sovereignty’s prison block after an accident nobody bargained for. There, he’s chained to Alice, giving him no chance of escape—and intimate insight into her true nature. But reality comes crashing down on them hard when the “transcendental” sorcerer manages to break out of his cell...

As the century-long war between the Empire and the Nebulis Sovereignty rages on, the star-crossed lovers from enemy nations continue to miss their opportunity for a rematch. But when Iska and Aliceliese are both given orders from their respective superiors to track down the source of this ancient grudge, they might just have a chance to battle it out.

May luck shine in your favorThe stars once aligned to grant a series of meetings between two fighters from enemy nations, but those ephemeral days have come to a close. Iska and Aliceliese must now take it into their own hands to scour the land in hopes of a rematch. Call it coincidence or predestination, but the pair manage to slip past each other at every turn, unaware they’ve been dispatched to the same battlefield. In their fight over a vortex of astral energy, they might just find that what brews and burbles in its abyss is more than magic...

When Elletear finds out Sisbell's new guard is an Imperial solider, she holds this secret against her younger sister, caging Sisbell and Iska in the royal villa to prevent them from interrupting her plans. After all, Elletear is the one suspected of colluding with the House of Zoa to organize the coup unfolding in the palace. Afraid for Sisbell's life, Alice races over to the villa to put a stop to Elletear's deeds...forcing all three sisters to come together under one roof for the first time in a long while.
