RADIANT T10

After the height of the battle, the fight between the Inquisition and the people of Cyfandir is coming to a close. The wizards have been beaten back and have no choice but to seek refuge in the forest. They can’t be counted out just yet, but how much do they have left in the tank? For even the forest seems to have fallen into the enemy’s grasp. Can Seth keep it together long enough to avoid destroying himself and all those around him?

Seth and his friends are separated as they head to Bôme, seat of the Inquisition, to retrieve the Nemeses their old ally Grimm stole from the Artemis Institute. They are beset by different groups of enemies, including members of a mysterious organization calling themselves the Mesnie. Their one chance of getting out of this mess lies with… Doc, their most cowardly and inept companion. Do Seth and company have any hope of reaching their destination safely… or even making it out alive?

Seth hasn’t given up on tracking down Grimm. But he and his friends run afoul of the Inquisition in the city of Bôme when they take down a Nemesis right in the royal garden. Seen as an attempt on the king’s life, Seth has no choice but to flee, aided by a one-time enemy. He isn’t the only one in a tight spot, either, with his friends Mélie and Ocoho also facing mortal danger. They’ll have to pull out all the stops if they want to make it out alive—whatever the cost.

Aiko and her best friend Eri spend all their time chatting on the social network Double.Me. They talk about everything, but above all about Dosan, a handsome high school student both are in love with. Tragically, Eri dies. Aiko, deeply affected by the disappearance of her friend, then sees a new Double.Me application come to life… in the form of an AI imitating her deceased friend. Aiko lets herself get caught up in these virtual conversations, but just how far will she let them take her?

Sherlock Holmes decides to take on a case which, in the beginning, seems to be no more than a matter of simple medical diagnosis for Dr. Watson. But the discovery of a mysterious powder on some clothes, as well as a ticket to a strange magic show, lead Sherlock to believe that his client is the victim of a large-scale plot, and that he’s not the only one… This volume offers an investigation squarely in the tradition of the master of mystery, Arthur Conan Doyle.

War rages on in Caislean Merlin. Queen Boadicée’s armies are up against the ropes, leading her to enter the battle herself, at her own peril—especially given the weapons at their opponent’s disposal. As if that weren’t enough, Mélie is up against an Inquisitor, and Seth’s friend Ocoho is facing her own personal crisis. Doc is coming with help, but will it help turn the tide? The wizards mustn’t lose, if they are to keep their freedom.

Seth is an aspiring wizard from the Pompo Hills region. Like all wizards, he is one of the “infected,” a select group of living beings who survived their encounter with the Nemeses: mysterious creatures from the sky that contaminate and decimate everything they touch. Seth’s apparent immunity has led him to go on the offensive and attempt to fight these Nemeses. But more than that, Seth is set to embark on a quest that goes beyond hunting monsters. Alongside his friends and allies, he will travel the world in search of the Radiant—the alleged birthplace of the Nemeses—while trying to stay a step ahead of the dreaded Inquisition.

Slowly learning to control his powers with the help of his master Yaga, Seth brings Doc and Mélie along to Rumble Town, one of the last bastions of the industrial era. Their mission: to capture a Nemesis alive! Information gathered by Doc—researcher, scavenger, and scaredy-cat—suggests the presence of a nest somewhere on the island. But the Inquisition rules the people of Rumble Town with an iron fist, and doesn’t look kindly on the arrival of three wizards. Will Seth and his friends be able to escape the Inquisition’s grasp?

The Day of the Accolade has come for the aspiring wizard knights! While Mélie and Myr attend the festivities, Seth and Doc infiltrate the basement of the castle to get their hands on documents about Radiant. While the party is in full swing, Cyfandir is attacked by the Inquisition. But why would they suddenly wage war, especially when up against the fantasia of the wizard knights?

Amid daily attacks by the Nemeses, the Merchant Barons continue their secretive scouting expedition in Cyfandir, which proves to their liking. But how can a small group of nobles hope to get their hands on such a fiercely guarded island-continent? Meanwhile, Seth goes on with his training in a mysterious forest, unlike any place he’s ever seen. There he will find that he has another important role to play, as the savior of the “Little People”…
