Goodreads Synopsis:
The world is overrun with monsters called Nemeses—and a young boy infected by one will stop at nothing to defeat them all!
Evil creatures called Nemeses fall from the skies and the only ones who can fight them are Wizards—infected ones who survived a Nemesis's corruption. Seth, one of these survivors, vows not only to fight the Nemeses, but to find their mythical nest, Radiant, and destroy it!
The Day of the Accolade has come for the aspiring wizard knights! While Mélie and Myr watch over the festivities, Seth and Doc infiltrate the basement of the castle to find documents about Radiant and finally discover Diabal’s true identity. While the party is in full swing, Cyfandir is attacked by the Inquisition. But why would they suddenly wage war?!

Review:
As Ocoho is dealing with her magical leader, and Melie is attempting
to distract and keep watch, Seth sneaks deep into the castle back to
the hidden nemesis base. All three are in different places, though
they're working together to try and get some answers.
Ocoho makes a big step in this volume, standing up for what she
thinks is right, even though people might think she's crazy and it'll
likely make her lose her position in the wizard ranks.
This nemesis/wizard knight fight is getting more serious, and finally
getting some potential reveals. It also keeps hinting at other
wizards stepping in, whether to cause more trouble or to help solve
it, and I think we might finally get to see who some of them are. We
also discovered something potentially important regarding Seth's
brother, and I'm very intrigued there. That seems like one of the
main, long-standing plot-lines running right now, and I'm curious
about it, but I think we're only touching the surface at this point.
This series is getting a little heavier in the shonen magic aspect,
but I don't mind. It's interesting, and I definitely like the
characters.
