## Synopsis

### Volume 1

Rin accompanied Alice to the Nelka Forest with orders of destroying an Imperial reactor. When Unit 907 defeated a squadron of Astral Mages on their own, Rin appeared to prevent them from taking her allies captive. She initially fights Iska, but she wasn't a match for him and ends up being restrained, only being let go after Alice appeared.

Rin then watches as Iska and Alice fight, the two of whom were evenly matched. However, after a blunder where Alice falls into Iska's arms, the duo decide to retreat since their objective was already completed.

The next day Alice and Rin go to the city of Ain in order to watch an opera play, but they unexpectedly meet with Iska again. Alice decides to finish what they started the other day, but Rin holds her back and reminds her of the neutral city's laws which prohibits any sort of conflict, so the two leave quietly.

However, when they visit a restaurant nearby, they meet with Iska yet again. Rin accuses him of following them, but he clears the misunderstanding and they calm down. Since the restaurant was full, they decide to share tables with him. Alice and Iska then discover their mutual love for ben cotta pasta, putting them at odds with Rin since she prefers pasta al dente. That night, Rin tells Alice to keep their meeting with Iska secret, since he was still an Imperial soldier.

A few days later, Alice and Rin were summoned to the Revered Founder's resting place by the Queen. Mirabea tells them that the founder's bindings started to become undone ever since Alice's encounter with Iska, so she should refrain from going out into the battlefield until they learn more about the Imperial soldier.

When the investigation was over, Rin personally informed Alice that Iska was a Saint Disciple, the youngest one in fact, but he lost his position after breaking free a "witch" out of prison. This revelation surprised Alice, as he tried to capture her when they met, prompting her to ask Rin to find out the identity of the witch he freed.

The next day, Rin took Alice to the neutral city, since Alice wanted to ask Iska about his contradictory actions. They meet with him and his captain inside the city, but move out to the outskirts to have a discussion. There Alice learns about his past and goals, and offers him the opportunity to serve under her, causing Rin to argue in protest. However, before he can give his answer, a crack in the sky appears, revealing the Founder Nebulis.

Because the founder wasn't fully awake yet, she attacked everyone indiscriminately; and after seeing Alice with an Imperial soldier, she launches a devastating attack towards Alice, causing Rin to step up with her golem to protect her. As a result, Rin suffered from burns, so Iska suggested Alice to use her powers to cool her down and asks Mismis carry her to the city for treatment. Alice and Iska then worked together to defeat Nebulis.

### Volume 2

Having recovered from her injuries, Rin brought Alice to the neutral city of Jurak for a change of pace since they were always running into Iska in the city of Ain. While Alice was deciding on a date for her rematch with Iska, Rin compared the way Alice acted as if she was planning for a wedding, causing Alice to become flustered.

Back home, Alice is made aware that the Zoa family were withholding information about a new Vortex, so Rin and Alice go to the Moon Spire to confront them. Once there, Rin stops Lord Mask's "harmless prank", as he was pointing a dagger behind Alice. When the two question him about the vortex, he kept making excuses as to why it wasn't reported to them, causing the two girls to leave since it was going nowhere.

The two eventually arrive at the Mudor Canyon and confirm the existence of the vortex, offering Lord Mask their assistance with its protection since it won't matter who gets it if it's destroyed.

When Mismis is taken prisoner to the Sovereignty's encampment, Rin knocks her out before she can reveal her relationship with Alice, and reprimands Shanorotte for bringing an enemy combatant into headquarters. Since Mismis was here, Alice instantly knew that Iska would be too, so she asked Shanorotte for the location of the enemy camp.

The two make it to the Imperial base by riding on Rin's golem, only to find it empty. But suddenly Rin pushes Alice and is cut by an invisible blade. The 8th seat of the Saint Disciples, Nameless, appears and fights Alice. However, the battle doesn't last long and their attacker ends up retreating, so the pair heads back.

Once at their own base, Rin watches as Alice dives into the vortex to save Iska and his captain. But because the vortex's energy was too strong, Alice is sent back to the surface. Without any signs of her rival nor his captain in sight, Alice and Rin return to the Sovereignty.

### Volume 3

In order to see Iska again, Alice waited at the city of Ain for days, accompanied by Rin. When he finally showed up, Rin gave him a spiked drink, hoping that he would realize and stop being friendly with them. But Iska unexpectedly drank it, so Alice and Rin took this opportunity to kidnap him and bring him to the Sovereignty.

The two brought him to a hotel in Alcatroz, where Rin attempted to kill him under the pretext that he fought back, but this failed since Alice returned to the room early. That night, an explosion in the distance was heard, so Rin received a call.

Unbeknownst to them, an Imperial unit went looking for Iska, resulting in the escape of Salinger the Transcendent. While Alice took command of the prison guards, Rin went searching for Salinger. Even though Rin gave her all, enraged by his crimes against the royal family, she couldn't defeat him, and was nearly killed if not for the arrival of Iska.

The resulting battle would change her opinions about Iska, since she trusted that Iska wouldn't lose to the likes of Salinger, and even protected him in one occasion. Salinger was soon defeated and sent back to prison. After everything was over, Rin informed Alice about the current state of the prison.

### Volume 5

Later on, Rin informed the queen Mirabea of both Iska liberated Sisbell one year ago and Elletear was the one who leaked Sisbell's location to the Zoa family with the intention of portraying her as a traitor, Rin and Alice were tasked with a secret mission of protecting Sisbell and return her to the royal palace at all costs. The two eventually find Sisbell with Iska on a "date", with Rin holding back Alice as she goes through a jealousy meltdown.

When Iska defeated Vichyssoise Alek Hydra, Rin captured the monstrous inquisitor and tells Iska to go back and guard Sisbell as well the Hydra Family finally made their move.

### Volume 9

After discovering that Third Princess Sisbell was taken to the Heavenly Empire, Rin accompanies Unit 907 to their home country to rescue her. They travel to the Imperial territory of Altoria, but Rin is anxiously on guard due to being in enemy territory. When they check in at a hotel, Rin faints while showering due to fatigue, causing Iska to get her out. Despite accusing him of attacking her, she knows that's not the case and stops harassing him. The next day, Rin takes a selfie with Iska to reinforce her disguise as a tourist visiting the Empire. She also sends it to Alice to let her know that she is safe, not knowing that Alice would get jealous.

After tracking Sisbell to an abandoned facility, Rin summons a golem to break open the steel doors. Due to its big size, Rin leaves it guarding the entrance while she summons a human-sized earth soldier to follow her. The group eventually finds Sisbell and frees her, but her captor, Kelvina Sofita Elmos, turns herself into a monster in an attempt to stop them. Although Kelvina destroys Rin's earth soldier, she is caught by surprise by the golem Rin left behind earlier, allowing Iska to strike her down.

They leave the facility, but Rin suddenly notices astral thread targeting Sisbell, so she leaps toward it and gets bound instead. Risya In Empire appears and introduces them to the Emperor Yunmelngen, who tells Iska to come to the Imperial capital.

### Volume 10

Rin is taken to the Emperor's tower and becomes angry since he keeps calling her a witch, but he defends himself by saying that she wouldn't give him her name. The beast person then proposes a competition: if she wins, he will release her; otherwise, she will tell him her name. Rin draws her knives thinking she will be fighting him, but she drops them upon finding out they're going to play shogi. She loses seventeen times in a row, but still wants to keep going.

### Volume 11

Rin was one of the many people present when Sisbell used her powers to project the past from hundred years ago.

### Volume 12

When the Emperor teleports everyone to where Subject E is in order to defeat her, Rin and Sisbell were able reunite to with Alice. After Elletear left for the planet's core, a helicopter arrives to bring the three girls back to the Sovereignty. However, they decide stay in the Empire after the Emperor offers Alice the option to work together in order to take down Elletear.

### Volume 13

A couple of days later, Rin is shocked by Kissing for bringing shame to the royal family, but she asks who is going to suffer from it? The Zoa family lost their upper ranks and soldiers, they are ruined already.

After the Emperor wakes up, he informs everyone of the **Catalysc Contamination Zone**, where the Great Star Disaster first arrived and began corrupting the Astral Spirits. When the spirits fled the planet's core, they caused Vortexes to appear across the world. If they don't do anything, the Calamity will mutate everything and everyone.

However, they are soon attacked by corrupted astral spirits sent by Elletear, causing everyone to split into two groups. Alice, Sisbell, and Rin then work together to defeat their opponent and regroup with the rest.
