Somehow, he’s ended up with the Guardian Crest of the Sacred Tree, which is supposed to manifest on the hand of the chosen love interest. But Noelle, the new protagonist, couldn’t possibly feel such things for him, right? He’s going to have to figure it out fast, or Noelle might be swept away by men with far darker intentions for the Alzer Republic…and for Noelle herself.

But all Leon’s resolve may come to naught in the face of the platoon of problems rocketing toward him.
