What kind of power has been unleashed from Brigittes tiny spirit in that flashy explosion, only time will tell. For now, the time has come for Brigitte and her friends to stay with Nival at his father’s estate. As they eat, play, and study the days away, Yuri will be there the whole time. And for the ice-cold villain he so claims to be, Brigitte’s going to have to do everything she can to keep her cool around him.

Villainess stories have become very popular in the world of manga and anime, and If the Villainess and Villain Met and Fell in Love offers a refreshing relationship between a supposedly incompetent villainess and a genius male lead who stands up for her against her manipulative ex-fiance.

A bet is a bet— and Brigitte Meidel pays her debts. Ready for the worst, she’s shocked to find Yuri’s only request is that she come visit him at his manor. While there, she encounters a mysterious young boy who bears a striking resemblance to her icy frenemy. The boy claims he can help her on a journey to finally call forth her contracted spirit. To a girl whose heart beats for spirits almost as much as it does for Yuri, will she seize this opportunity before her...?

Nival’s wind Aria has gone berserk, threatening Bridgitte and all her classmates! Just as her no-name spirit shows signs of awakening, Yuri leaps in to save her from the rampaging spirit! Until now, describing their relationship was confrontational would’ve been putting it lightly— especially after their rocky introductions. But in the aftermath of the incident Bridgitte begins to see Yuri in a different light. And as her feelings for him grow, could the once-insurmountable distance between them be shrinking...?

Contracted with a no-name spirit, Brigitte Meidell is a disappointment to her noble family and the mockery of her peers at the Otoleanna Academy of Magic—except for one. Yuri Aurealis is intelligent, handsome…and oh so arrogant. He’s made enemies of the same people as Brigitte, meaning the two should get along just fine. However, his boorishness accidentally sparks a rivalry between them. It’s a competition that has the potential to bring the two closer than they ever thought…!

A two–hundred–year–long nap has left Mariela the only alchemist in town–except that’s a secret she definitely won’t be sharing. In order to hide her true origins, she’s going undercover as a chemist in the hopes of staying off the radar. While preparing to obtain her guild license and eventually open her own apothecary, Mariela begins to connect with residents of the Labyrinth City. Slowly but steadily, it starts to feel more like home…Is her dream of a quiet life finally within reach?

The mystery behind the Aguinas family and their potion stockpile deepens following the mission to rescue Dr. Nierenberg’s daughter from Robert’s blackmail attempt. But his escape complicates matters, drawing Mariela that much closer to the royal family and the prying eyes she’d so desperately worked to avoid. With potions running low and a seemingly endless labyrinth still before them- how much longer can Mariela keep her alchemical abilities secret...?

“I’m sure someday, I’ll get you to look my way.” Danger and uncertainty are common for a young vampire, which is why Emille will be assigned a “Big Sister” on her fourteenth birthday, like all the girls at her school. Deep within a secluded forest, her sister will teach her how to hunt and safely feed on humans. Learning to rely on each other for survival cultivates a deep relationship comparable to that between family-but does theirs have the potential to evolve into something more?"

“I couldn’t bear to be hurt like that again.” The death of her big sister at the hands of vampire hunters shattered Yucca’s world. There was only one person left who she cared for—Emille. But the girl she so desired seemed out of reach, always with her big sister, Eve. In her attempts to stem the tide of jealousy and grief, Yucca steals Emille away, closing them off from the rest of the world. Now Emille’s only hope is Eve. Before she can come to Emille’s rescue, though, Eve must reckon with the scars that remain on her heart…

Mariela is the last alchemist alive after waking from a deep sleep that lasted two hundred years. As the sole alchemist in town, she could make a killing by brewing and selling potions…but after two hundred years of suspended animation, all she wants to do is relax, take things easy, and live at her own pace!

“Would you stay with me forever?” That photograph was the last straw. After Emille finds an old picture of Eve and her big sister, she is overcome with jealousy and a desperate yearning to complete the blood vow—to make Eve hers, once and for all. Desiring the same gentle gaze Eve once looked upon her former sister with, Emille hopes she will one day be truly loved. But her doubts that Eve will ever return those feelings tear at her heart, deepening the wounds from a secret she’s kept locked away all this time…

When a stampeding horde of monsters threatened to destroy the world, Mariela the Alchemist would go on to survive. At the advice of her master, she placed herself in a state of suspended animation and awoke unaged and unharmed—two hundred years in the future! Alchemy is now a lost art, and potions have become scarce. As the last remaining alchemist, Mariela just wants a quiet life. But while she and her newfound allies work to carve out a slice of home for themselves in the Kingdom of Endalsia, keeping a low profile is harder than she thought.
