Synopsis
Beautiful village girl Yvienne escapes kidnapping, attends wizardry school, and befriends January and Lariatte on her destined fantasy adventure.
With the author's characteristic humour and creativity, the work describes one girl’s fantasy adventure. Yvienne Magnolia's beauty widens the small villagers' eyes she is living but she never knew what her future would be, since it is destined too high to imagine for her at that time... As the lord of the manor tries to kidnap her, Yvienne flees to Lowood Institution for wizardry and witchcraft she never thought to go leaving behind her family. In the school, she meets interesting people, like, January Lightsphere who shines purple aura compared to his noble but peculiar family, and Lariatte, an orthodox fighter family's heir, who will be her closest mate.
