“DOROKA’S MAGIC…BELONGS TO ME.”

Though Adonis despises the new science of the Gear Expansion, the only way to heal Doroka’s eyes is the regenerative technology used in the medical nation of Markpoint. Even without her vision, Doroka’s good cheer and thoughtful nature remains undiminished, and the flame of revenge burning in Adonis’s heart begins to flicker and wane. Yet just when it seems the gap between them is closing, the dark truth at the heart of Markpoint comes to terrible light!

THE BEWITCHING BEAUTY OF QUEEN DOROTHEA

Together, Adonis and Doroka prevailed over Redia’s cybernetic assassin–but they didn’t make it through the fight unscathed. Both of Doroka’s eyes were brutally torn out, and Adonis has sworn a bitter vow to see her vision restored, no matter what it takes. Leading his companion by the hand with the flame of vengeance burning in his heart, his journey draws him inevitably towards a conflict with the Queen of Redia. She’s obsessed with Adonis for mysterious reasons of her own, and with the help of her loyal subjects, she prepares a new scheme to finally get her hands on the witch’s apprentice…

FORBIDDEN MAGIC, BLOOD-SOAKED STEEL

Adonis holds within him a deep yearning for revenge against humanity, while Doroka is a kind soul overflowing with forgiveness. Once reluctant partners, now they’ll have to fight back-to-back if they’re to have any hope of survival. Their journey across the wasteland has been interrupted by the sudden appearance of a Redian assassin–the “White Rabbit” Shirousagi. Immune to Doroka’s magic and empowered by dangerous cybernetic technology, he’s bound to be their most desperate battle yet. Science contends against magic in a tale of despair, regret, and vengeance!

SEEKING VENGEANCE IN A BROKEN WORLD

Adonis and Doroka race across the wastelands, headed for the empire of Redia. All around them looms the rusting, ruined evidence of Redia’s destructive scientific revolution. Their motives couldn’t be more different: as the apprentice of the brutally murdered Ice Witch Chloe, Adonis wants nothing more than to wreak vengeance on the world. As one of the few surviving witches, Doroka hopes to stop the endless cycle of violence. With pursuit hot on their heels, their journey is slowly bringing them closer together.

RIDING THROUGH THE WASTELANDS

After a blood-soaked battle on the surface of the moon, Adonis and Doroka return to Earth. Though the witch hunts are now well and truly over, Adonis won’t let go of his desire for revenge on the human race. Moving along the fringes of society, the two of them see a different side of humanity: people left behind, struggling to survive amidst the ruins of the old world. The scope of their journey widens, while in the capital city, the true mastermind behind the Redian throne prepares to make her move!

AN EYE FOR AN EYE Witches were long the shepherds of all mankind, but the scientific Redia Empire rose up to exterminate them, one by one. When they murdered his mentor, the Ice Witch Chloe, Adonis swore revenge on the entire human race. But now, ten years after the Witch Hunts, a revelation stays his hand. Some small number of witches have survived in hiding. They may even hold the key to Chloe’s resurrection. Could a slim hope still remain?
