I think this volume is the one that has me hooked! From Ruth’s story and character (I LOVE HIM!), to the mystery surrounding Elias to the constant addition of magical creatures and dastardly villains, I was completely taken in and am really enjoying getting lost in this world of fairies and dragons and magic. If you like fantasy, I highly recommend this series!

3.5 stars. Not my favorite volume so far. But still enjoying this manga.
Huh, I thought the beginning of this was confusing and I couldn't remember the end of #2. Nor could I find it (and now I see I didn't review it so apparently I only THOUGHT I read it). I'm sure if I hadn't somehow skipped a volume I would have made much more sense of the beginning of this.
It obviously takes up where #2 ended, drawing from folklore for both the Wandering Jew (as an alchemist in this) and faeries. During the battle, Chise, ends up bonded to a faerie (dog shifter) she names Ruth (in spite of the fact he's a boy) and Elias uses to much magic that he's having trouble holding his form.
And why oh why did the Chimera have to be a centaur like creature that has the body of a monstrous spider and the torso of a woman and where her pelvis joins the spider there's a vagina-mouth filled with drool and teeth (how many times have I seen this in anime/manga. Makes you wonder...)
In the aftermath, life starts settling down to normal but Elias has locked himself away because of his issues keeping his form (he's not human, others see him as monstrous. Chise doesn't but she doesn't know what he is either). Chise gets a lot of alone time, cautioned not to live her life just for him (she was abused and unwanted by her own mother so she's not sure she knows how to live 'normally') and has a few other adventures involving mages and faeries which is about all I can say without spoiling it.
This is a different sort of manga and I'm really enjoying it.

im torn bc i love the world building and art and characters (especially ruth the grim dog) but this weird dynamic between the two main characters is something i’m still mulling over; i’m not sure to what extent i can enjoy this series bc of it. there’s brief moments where the relationship feels parental, and others where it feels romantic, and those blurred lines are hard to look past. anyways, i ordered the next two volumes at the library lol, it’s such a quick read that i might as well chug along with it for now 🤷♀️
