Enter the Magician's Apprentice Her name is Chise Hatori, a penniless orphan troubled by visions. Sold as a slave to an inhuman mage, she is about to begin a strange new life, filled with magic, fairies, and other beings of a fantastical nature.

Чісе та Еліас виконували три завдання по проханню Церкви, коли раптом стали мішенню для нападу. Що за таємничий дует напосів на них? Яка їхня мета?.. І яку силу насправді приховує «слей бега»? Разом із чарівною парою Чісе та Еліаса зануртеся в романтику цього фентезійного світу у другому томі «Нареченої чаклуна».

Chise Hatori's life has recently undergone shocking change. As a sleigh beggy—a person capable of generating and wielding tremendous magical power—she has transformed from an unwanted child to a magician's apprentice who has been introduced to fae royalty. But Chise's newly discovered abilities also mean a cruel fate awaits her.

"I am not alone." Chise has been summonsed to the Dragon Aerie to begin crafting her very own wand, but her journey has more to offer than she had anticipated: magical wonders, enlightening visions, and perhaps most importantly, insight into Elias' past and the secrets he has been reluctant to reveal about himself. Yet while Chise finds some answers about the inhuman mage's history, mysterious beings are displaying an unexpected interest in Chise herself.

Láska je sice mocná čarodějka, ale někdy také mocný zabiják. Stařík Joel z růžové zahrady umírá a upíří víla Redcurrant ví, že má na jeho neutěšeném stavu svůj podíl. Dokáže jim Čise pomoci v těžké chvíli?

Chise is gradually learning how to understand both human nature and the whims of the fae, as well as how to balance them and walk her own path. Suddenly, she receives a mysterious letter from bustling London. What could an alchemist's apprentice want from her...? Find out in this long-awaited sixth volume, in a dark fairy tale romance between the human and the inhuman!

Lullaby, and Good Night... After mistakenly putting Elias under a spelling spell, Chise can't find a way to wake him up! She turns to Angie for help, and brews a potion meant to undo the spell—but the process is so exhausting, Chise ends up falling asleep herself. Upon entering a dream world, she crosses paths with the person she least Cartaphilus. But something's off—the amoral alchemist seems to have lost his threatening edge. Meanwhile, in the outside world, trouble is brewing... on a dragon-sized scale!

Chise may have stopped the dragon's rampage, but at a great cost: she has been cursed, and a dragon's curse is unbreakable! Chise and Elias are visited by Marielle the witch, whose fellow witches claim to know the secret to helping Chise. There's one catch—in exchange for their aid, Chise must join the witches' coven.

A Deal with the Devil Elias hoped to break the deadly draconic curse that weighs upon Chise–but his methods have created a rift between them. Now Chise prepares to make a gamble of her own: What could she possibly hope to gain from a bargain with Cartaphilus? It is a time of curses cast and forks in the road. Will the paths of master and apprentice soon diverge…?

HIGHER LEARNING Now that Cartaphilus has chosen to enter a long slumber, peace has finally returned to the little cottage west of London. But it's not long before a message arrives for Chise: an invitation to join the college, a society of alchemists. Deep beneath the British Library, the curtain rises on a new story set on a new stage. There, human children learn, think, and grow...but what of those who are inhuman?

Chise Hatori ha solo quindici anni ma ha già perso tutto: non ha più una famiglia né speranze per il futuro. Un giorno, però, le compare davanti un misterioso mago che le offre un'allettante opportunità di riscatto: diventare sua discepola e futura sposa... Chise sta frequentando il College come uditrice. Elias ha accettato i cambiamenti della ragazza e ha cominciato ad accorgersi che anche lui non è più quello di un tempo. I due hanno a che fare con un sempre maggior numero di persone: gli stravaganti compagni di scuola di Chise, i "sette scudi", la Chiesa, e infine Rahab... Che influenza avranno su di loro le nuove conoscenze?

Many different students from different backgrounds attend the fantastical institution of higher learning known as "The College." They are the nameless, faceless strangers sitting in the next seat, or living in the next dorm room. As Chise begins to come out of her shell and interact with her classmates, she overhears a certain rumor about her roommate, Lucy...

絡み、纏わりつく因果。蜘蛛の糸は、万人を救えない。 誰しも秘密が、ある。チセにあるように、ゾーイ・アイビーにも。 期せずして知った彼の秘密を守る為、居合わせた5人は〈契約〉、 誓約の結びつきを得る。絆を得ていく学院生達に反して、それぞれの家は 過去に縛られ、思わしくない未来を描こうと画策する……。 その中で、チセ達は「生存」を目的とした校外実習へ向かうが、 そこは、夜の者どもが荒野に遊ぶ地。善き者も悪しき者も、また――。

UNUSUAL SUSPECTS First Lucy was attacked during the College camping trip. Then professor Simeon was caught unawares on the College campus itself. As the victim count begins to rise, it comes to light that a forbidden tome, thought safely stored in the archives, has been stolen–a tome that Elias once glanced through– The Testament of Carnamagos. As the College staff begins to suspect a connection between the two events, Chise and Lucy, a survivor of the Webster Tragedy, must contend with a pack of ravenous werewolves out for their lives!

Während die Akademie Marielle und Isaac mit der Suche nach der verbotenen Schrift beauftragt, müssen die Schüler eine gefährliche Lektion bestehen und sich mit dem Leben in der abgeriegelten Akademie arrangieren. Schnell kommt Langeweile auf und die Schüler organisieren eine nächtliche Mutprobe.

Breaking Point The stolen grimoire was thought long gone, but it turns out it’s still hidden within the College. But why leave the stolen goods so close to the scene of the crime? The College alchemists are left scratching their heads in confusion. Meanwhile, weeks stuck in lockdown leave tempers short, and minor misunderstandings lead to major doubts. All it takes is one small incident for strings drawn tight to snap.

人外×少女 誰を救けたくば己が何者かを、識れ。 そして、顕現する写しの偽神。“遺言"かフィロメラか――混ざりあったそれは学院からの脱出を図る為、祝祭の会場で学院の最高実力者と向き合う。緊迫する状況下で、チセとエリアスは両者と対峙するが……。

Philomela finally stops clasping her hands in passive prayer, and instead reaches them out for help. Meanwhile, Lizbeth gives in to blind obsession, merging with the forbidden Testament. Then a third, unexpected party joins the fray—a curse designed to kill a mother. All actors are in place on a chaotic stage, and when the goddess Morrígan finally makes her entrance, the story of one fraught family comes to an end.

愛とは、憎しみとは、呪いとは何なのか。争いのなかでフィロメラはチセから手渡されたスリサズで自らの答えを得る。 ――斯くしてサージェント家の大過は終焉を迎えた。 チセはエリアス達と共に我が家に戻り、束の間の安らぎを得るが 人ならざる力を使い、竜と化した代償は払わねばならない。 獣達のざわめきは広がる……“獣狩り”が始まると……。
