Witchcraft Works

Takamiya Honoka is an ordinary high school student with just one unusual issue—he shares a desk with Kagari Ayaka, the most popular girl in school. Despite sitting beside her every day, they’ve never exchanged more than a few words. Even the slightest interaction leads to trouble, as her devoted admirers make sure he pays for daring to speak to her. But when a piece of the school building nearly crushes him, it’s Kagari who swoops in to save him—riding a broomstick, dressed like a witch, and cradling him in her arms. With flames dancing at her fingertips, she shields him from danger until the mysterious attack subsides. She reveals that guarding him has always been her secret duty, though she’s now free to do so openly. Questions swirl—why was Takamiya targeted? Who assigned Kagari this mission? And why does she call him “my princess”? With her protective presence now out in the open, how will her fan club react to their sudden closeness? The answers lie hidden in a world where magic and mystery intertwine.
