A
different noblewoman, a feared duke, and an unexpected love
Melphiera
Marchalrayd is
a young noblewoman with very particular tastes: she has a deep love for cooking
with monster meat. Although in the kingdom this type of ingredient is frowned
upon, she dreams of proving that they can be the basis of exquisite dishes.
Despite being rejected by high society, her life changes when she meets Aristide
Roger de Galbraith, a duke feared by all as the "Blood
Madman".
This
peculiar encounter marks the beginning of a story of romance, action
and fantastic gastronomy, where both must face the prejudices and dangers
of the world around them.
