In Liberta City, a place of promise and freedom, no one and nothing is what they appear to be. Yumi, a sunny, cheerful Japanese-American girl with strawberry blonde hair and amber eyes, one day discovers this fact in the harshest way possible when she manifests her powers as a Day Witch and accidentally burns down her family's home. Meanwhile, in her time of regret, she inadvertently becomes involved in the dangerous arcane secrets of the modern, multicultural city. Joining her is Jay, a high school boy with a gift for problem solving and driving his rich young landlady crazy. Side-by-side, the two begin to find their purpose in bringing light against the darkness.

[There's a revamped version of this story up on my account. If you like the story, feel free to read that.] Having lost her parents to an unfortunate accident, which led her to live with a bastard of an uncle, Maria takes her own life out of despair. However, God pitied her and chose to reincarnate her. Parts of her memories were locked away without her knowledge in order to protect her frail mind. She awakens as a young princess of a small kingdom, that is under threat of invasion from the demonkind. Vowing to protect both her kingdom and her newfound family, Maria decides to take on the mantle of a knight with her own hands. In doing so, she is determined to cope with the dangers and mysteries of this new and strange world, while meeting new people who will forever change the course of her destiny. Yet, was pity truly the sole reason for her reincarnation? A cove of darkness amidst light, not everything is as it seems. * * * Graphic Cover By: @Creaking_Shadow Discord: https://discord.gg/vwKhVUR * * * *I will also be posting this to RoyalRoadl.com with the username samspd71.

Reiji is a cold loner with temper issues who reviles the world around him. Alice is a sheltered aristocrat suffering from social anxieties. A chance encounter had the two meeting one another. Can their romance blossom despite their debilitating pessimism and paranoia? A charming tale about breaking out of one's shell and maturing from adolescence to adulthood. Updated every Saturday! <---(But nothing was said about slight delays!) "This is probably one of the best things that I've ever read in the past two years along with The Fault in Our Stars, a few Vonnegut books and Redemption (the 2Million words long Mass Effect fanfiction which you will definitely love). Fresh and unusual humours, not so over-the-top drama, some "aww" moments that are hard to forget and an overall unique story; you really can mix those things pretty well into a 19 chapters (as of this writing) internet novel that I first thought would be like your usual lovey-dovey filled light novels which shows people kiss every 2 chapters but is actually a read that is quite unique for today's standard." -Some guy on the internet "This is a soothing piece of work. Experiencing the story through Reiji's and Alice's POV really brings it to life; I always thought slice of life is best written in first person. You managed to make me sympathetic towards them already, seeing how they go about their lives with their train of thought, personality, and all. The drama scenes when done well really have heartstring-pull prowess. Chapter (redacted) comes to mind, and Chapter (redacted) too. Your Edgy antics are as apparent as ever. I can definitely see how you intentionally make cheeky remarks and references regarding certain anime tropes and antics, yet I don't feel they hinder the story. The narration may read a little too explosive at times, but so far it's nothing that would take my eye off this story one bit. " -Some other guy on the internet
