The long-awaited manga series based on the hugely popular anime franchise continues.... Coud, Ren and their mates from Arc Aile finally make it to the Leaning Bazaar, where they encounter a bizarre assortment of characters, including a mysterious little girl who won't leave them alone. With recent Edel Raid thefts, Coud clings tightly to Ren--but will his grip be strong enough when they confront the dastardly and deadly Edel Raid hunter Wolx Hound?!...

Abandon ship! Coud's first time on a boat doesn't go so swimmingly as the battle continues between his crew and the assassin Grayarts. Together they may be able to take the air out of Grayart's sails--but with Cisqua's itchy trigger finger set on "seek and destroy," will there be anyone left to raise the victory flag? Meanwhile, Coud's lack of a government ID forces him to leave the group and sneak over the border. But without Coud by her side, Ren finds herself open for attack...at the hands of none other than Ren's stalker, Viro! Will Coud get to her in time to save her?...

While Coud and company make their way to the town of Tolo Dyle, more and more members of Organite find out Coud is in possession of the Shichiko-hoju. As if his profile wasn't high enough, this could really put him in harms way!...

Rowen and Kuea decide to fight Romble as part of Rowen's determination to avenge Viro, but Kuea's attacks are useless against Romble's darkness attribute Adil Raid. When Gladias appears, everyone breathes a sigh of relief, until they discover what his real purpose is....
