It is the near future and the age of criminal organizations fighting for territory with their own crew has ended as they figured that it was neither economical nor practical. The new method of territory warfare is done with each criminal organization hiring an assassin and betting their land on which assassin survives the modern day coliseum. Bando Eiji aka Gun Mania is a top rated assassin for the Kuroyanagi group. A young man named Kusano Nonomura of the now overthrown Kusano organization seems to have a vengeance against Bando, the Kuroyanagi family and the entire criminal world. Blood will be shed very soon.

These are interesting times in the empire of Varnia. The imperial army may have broken the back of the invading army of Nebel, but at tremendous cost. The living weapons born of past wars with the magic-wielding tribes of the south still prowl the ancient forests. And ever since the battle in the northern pass, an avenging phantom has stalked the trails of Varnia, leaving carnage in its wake: The immortal warrior, the last knight of Orgonne... And they call her Slayer Volte.

The story of the girl everyone knows, but no one knows the story of. The daily life of Yohane, who runs a fortune teller's shop in a town by the sea, is relaxed, heartwarming, sometimes full of black magic? A short comic depicting the days of an illusion, near and far. *Note: Chapter count includes 1 extra chapter and an epilogue.*

“If a woman lies then smile and forgive her. If a woman complains then be quiet and listen to her. If a woman cries then gently brush her tears away. But above all else - You are to never strike a woman. Is that understood, my damned disciple?” That was the first thing the boy ever learned from his master. As a human being his master was very peculiar. One might say that he was open-hearted but to put it frankly he was nothing more than a hedonist with a personality that couldn’t be any worse. He was constantly womanizing and when there was not enough money for lodging they would be forced to sleep outside and live off the land. As a result, the brother and sister went through a lot because of this powerless man.

The annual income of Yota Jin—a self-conscious light novel author whose work’s anime adaptation flopped—is 25 million yen. While he still managed to earn that much money despite the anime’s failure, it wasn’t anything special in this industry. There is always someone better. In such a rough industry, Yota has steeled himself for a daily life of a pro, however—his childhood friend that he hired as an assistant for the sake of tax measure, Yuma Kizuki, knows nothing about light novels. As he gets impatient seeing the talent of his middle school and high school girl junior authors, his editor keeps scrutinizing his work… Even so, in order to fulfill his ambition, he keeps on earning money by writing today!
