Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World, Vol. 1

Our Last Crusade: Book 1

Kei Sazane

Love is a battlefield

For years, a great war has raged on between the scientifically advanced Empire and a paradise of witches known as the Nebulis Sovereignty. This age-old battle sets the scene for a fateful encounter between two young combatants: an imperial swordsman, Iska, and the witch princess, Aliceliese. As sworn enemies, they vow to cut each other down in order to unite their worlds, and yet Iska finds himself entranced by her beauty and righteousness, while Aliceliese is moved by his strength and resolve.

In the midst of a never-ending war that forbids them from being together, they have no choice but to destroy each other-or can they find another way?

May luck shine in your favor

The stars once aligned to grant a series of meetings between two fighters from enemy nations, but those ephemeral days have come to a close. Iska and Aliceliese must now take it into their own hands to scour the land in hopes of a rematch. Call it coincidence or predestination, but the pair manage to slip past each other at every turn, unaware they've been dispatched to the same battlefield. In their fight over a vortex of astral energy, they might just find that what brews and burbles in its abyss is more than magic...

Break free... if you can

Getting assigned to a special mission to infiltrate the Sovereignty was already more than Iska could handle, but with Captain Mismis becoming a witch, his list of problems just keeps getting longer. To make matters even worse, Iska finds himself dragged to the Sovereignty's prison block after an accident nobody bargained for. There, he's chained to Alice, giving him no chance of escape-and intimate insight into her true nature. But reality comes crashing down on them hard when the "transcendental" sorcerer manages to break out of his cell...

A SECRET NEVER TO BE TOLD...

To rest and recuperate from their set of life-threatening missions, Unit 907 is finally granted a much-needed break.

Against all odds, the trip is going according to plan...until Iska bumps into a certain witch who instantly reminds him of Alice. In fact, it feels all too familiar when she demands he come to Nebulis-for reasons she simply cannot reveal. And she isn't the only one with a hidden motive: Alice has arrived to investigate why her sister has been spying on Iska... for months.
