Ancient Power. Public Scandals. Deadly Rivalries.
The secret archmage’s secondary academy life is getting far more complicated.
Lucien and Liora are officially together, walking hand-in-hand through the halls of Ardenth Academy and setting the school’s gossip circuit ablaze.
But behind their public romance lies a dark, permanent Coven Bond.
As Lucien’s three centuries of suppressed magic begin bleeding into Liora’s mana core, her demon physiology becomes faster, stronger, and far more dangerous.
However, keeping a low profile becomes impossible when his feud with noble student Valt Krenning reaches a boiling point.
When Valt unleashes his lethal wind-asp familiar on Corvath, Lucien’s ancient combat instincts take total control. The violent fallout triggers an institutional firestorm involving powerful trade commissioners, Headmistress Elyndra, and high-society politics.
Meanwhile, his brilliant fox-beastkin professor, Renvaya, steps in to defend him - while relentlessly digging into the mystery behind his impossible power.
Between unmasking ancient magic, hidden academy passage networks mapped by familiar allies, and growing romantic entanglements, Lucien must protect those he cares about before the whole school uncovers what he really is.
