“There is no true love without sacrifices and no true loyalty without submission.”

Sato Naoki, the last descendant of the most powerful clan in Japan, is the only survivor of the pure bloodline of the Alchemists.

He was a man who lived both in the past and in the present. A man, bloodthirsty for revenge. 

He has been waiting for his destined bride for 7 centuries however, right before she is born, an experiment goes wrong in his lab which put him to sleep for 18 years.

Ito Haruka, the destined one for the only survivor of his kind, was born with the innate ability to see the past, present, and future.

Due to the calamity that would befall her, the prophets of old sealed her powers right from the days of her predecessors, to protect her.

The awakening of her powers attracted the attention of the ‘Dark Souls’ the ancient enemies who were the same group of powerful mages that wiped out Sato Naoki’s powerful clan.

The Dark Souls were as heartless as their powers got, and they will not hesitate to take down the threats to their ultimate goal.

However, when they met with resistance, they began to toil with the hearts of their prey, leaving them with difficult choices to make.

What option would Naoki and Haruka pick when a war is put between their heart and mind? 

Would they try to risk it all and fight back despite the little chances they have or would they succumb to the devices of their enemies?

Alchemy of Hearts

Young girls in their numbers stood in straight lines, forming several rolls as they faced the stage.

Ten steps away from them, several soldiers in their warrior armour and armed with their double swords, stood watching them.

In the midst of the rolls of young ladies, was Haruka who managed to raise her head to glance at the stormy sky after gaining a little courage.

'It's going to rain,' She observed as her heart started to beat erratically in her chest.

What was she going to do if it started to rain now? Her hair… how was she going to take care of it?

Haruka was tempted to glance behind just to find her father, but she knew her movements couldn't be large otherwise, she would be attracting unwanted attention to herself.

She would have loved to see her father at least, to get the courage to continue standing there as she did not know what awaited her.
