Ashaf and Guideau's new mission sees them travel to the Third Continent in pursuit of a witch on a killing spree.

Helga and Guideau go head-to-head with the Paladin Corps's Matt Cugat, an ice mage with power to rival a witch. While they struggle to escape with the Demon Sword, Ashaf suspects a plot.

Wounded and worn out, Ashaf, Guideau, and Cugat are all that stand between an Executioner with a fortress full of Paladins at his command and the Demon Sword.

Ashgan has lost control, and Ashaf finally unleashes Guideau to stop it. But even with the curse undone, can the beast stand up to the Demon Sword's apocalyptic power?
