In the midst of a harmonious and blissful newlywed life with her beloved child and dependable husband, she was surrounded by happiness, every moment a precious gift, even if it meant trading her own life.... more>>

Or so she thought. But then, she died.

...Huh?

***

'I didn't mean I actually wanted to die!'

She was sure she had only fallen asleep and woken up, but when she came to her senses, she found herself a translucent body floating in mid-air.

How perplexing.

"Hey, can't you see me? You too, over there? ...Butler? Head maid?"

To her utter confusion, not only had four years passed since her death, but she had also become a ghost.

"...Oh my?"

-…

"Oh, oh my, it's true? ... it's true?"

Apparently, her ghostly form was only visible to her four-year-old son. Left with no choice, she initially pretended to be a guardian angel sent by his mother to watch over her son. However, upon observing the clear signs of neglect he had endured while being confined to the attic of the mansion, her heart sank.

As if that wasn't enough,

"My baby, how long have you been living here?"

-I'm not a baby...

“...Right. So, what's your name?"

"... Young Master?"

...He didn't even have a name at the age of four.

Had my f*cking husband lost his mind? When had he ever shown any genuine gratitude for me giving birth to our child?

She vowed to give her husband, who was currently away on business, a piece of her mind when he returned. She would avenge the suffering her son had endured.

With that thought in mind, she gritted her teeth. But then she noticed...

'...What on earth is that?'

His once handsome face was now gaunt and haggard, with dark circles etched beneath his sharp, piercing eyes.

She was shocked by the stark difference from the last time she had seen him.

-I can't quite remember how your voice sounded anymore...

Consumed by grief over the loss of his wife, he had lost his sanity. <<less

“I’d say it’s audacious.”... more>>

Kaiden looked down at Trinity trapped beneath his arms and gasped for breath.

Unlike the bold demeanor she had displayed in her counterattack, Trinity’s body was small and delicate enough to fit snugly in his embrace.

The moment he met her dark eyes, wide with surprise, Kaiden tightened his arms involuntarily.

Thick sinews bulged in his arms as he struggled to keep himself from collapsing onto her.

“I’d say it’s remarkable.”

His opposite hand, not touching the ground, cradled Trinity’s head. The palm held her soft hair, while the back of the hand was in contact with the harsh wintry chill of the ground.

Trinity shuddered as she squeezed his hand, the sensation unfamiliar but not unwelcome.

Kaiden’s hand trembled with hers.

“Perhaps, it might be both.”

Kaiden Calskronin is a member of the Magic Knights Order and has spent three years patrolling the borderlands before enrolling in the magic academy. He possesses unique magical attributes that no one else can duplicate. While chasing after the monstrous Trinity, he is reunited with Rosiana when he is forced to enroll in the Kantaean Academy of Magic.

Rosiana Delconda is a wind mage who can see spirits. Along with Luperne, the guardian spirit of the Escalona Empire, she battles evil spirits in the guise of the Rogue Trinity, often getting into trouble with Kaiden, who tries to capture her. <<less
