Hatori Chise has lived a life full of neglect and abuse, devoid of anything resembling love. Far from the warmth of family, she has had her share of troubles and pitfalls. Just when all hope seems lost, a fated encounter awaits her. When a man with the head of a beast, wielding strange powers, obtains her through a slave auction, Chise's life will never be the same again. The man is a "magus," a sorcerer of great power, who decides to free Chise from the bonds of captivity. The magus then makes a bold statement: Chise will become his apprentice - and his wife!

Sep 30, 2022This is such an important volume for the story of Chise and her enemies, and I'm a little bit sad that it happens this late in the series! The payoff of having Chise's past revealed with Josef is pretty sweet, but it has been a long time coming. While many other volumes of this series have been fairly heartbreaking, this one takes the cake with our two most tragic folks, and I do manage to feel pity for Josef even though he has been making everyone's life harder for the last seven volumes. This feels very much like the end of a story arc, and the ending isn't quite a cliffhanger, so if you're on a limited budget and need a logical place to stop, this volume would be a decent place to do so.
