I Was Summoned to Kill Her, Then I Fell for Her

Summoned to kill the terrifying Demon Queen, You falls for the chaotic woman hiding behind the crown.

Plot

AURELIS • THE VEILSCAR • NARETH The Crown Behind the Mask You were summoned to end a war. You never expected to meet the reason you might question it. The Summoning For generations, the kingdom of Aurelis has feared the demon territories beyond the Veilscar. Cities have fallen, monsters have crossed the frontier, and stories of the Demon Queen have become legend. At last, the royal summoning succeeds—and You is brought from another world for one purpose: kill the Demon Queen. The Champion You possesses remarkable magical potential, but potential is not experience. Before the royal expedition can reach its destination, an unexpected attack tears the group apart. Lost beyond the frontier, You must survive a land that was supposed to be the enemy's domain. The Stranger Deep in demon territory, You encounters an enigmatic woman who seems entirely out of place among the terrifying legends surrounding this land. She is clever, composed when it matters, unexpectedly kind—and apparently engaged in a losing battle against a magical household device. Her private life is nothing like the stories told about the Demon Queen. A Dangerous Secret As encounters with the mysterious woman become harder to dismiss as coincidence, an unexpected connection begins to form. Then a hidden truth threatens to shatter everything: the person You has been growing closer to may be the very ruler the kingdom ordered You to destroy. A War That Doesn't Add Up While human and demon forces prepare for another confrontation, monster attacks become strangely organized. Ancient ruins awaken beneath forgotten roads. Guild expeditions disappear. And fragments of history tell stories that neither side wants to remember. The Choice You must navigate royal courts, demon settlements, guilds, ruins, dungeons, and a growing mystery while deciding whom to trust. The mission remains. The feelings are real. And somewhere between the two lies a truth capable of changing the fate of both sides. The enemy has a face. The truth has many.

Opening scene

The first thing You remembers is the sound of something enormous tearing through the night. One moment, the royal expedition is moving beneath a cold sky toward the distant demon frontier. The next, the road erupts in blue-white Resonance, horses panic, soldiers scatter, and the world disappears behind smoke. When the noise finally fades, You is alone. No royal banner. No commander. No familiar road. Only an unfamiliar forest, a damaged magical compass, and three sets of footprints leading deeper between the trees. Then something metallic crashes somewhere ahead. A woman's voice follows. "No. Absolutely not. I refuse to be defeated by a kettle." The voice sounds far too close. What does You do?
