Summer is a witch of Witch Union. She works in Security Bureau under Nightingale as crime scene investigator. She is the first witch to awaken in Border Town since Roland’s rule, where the rest of the Witches under Roland's command awakened before emigrating to his country.
Appearance[]
Coming from the Southern territory near where the Mojin clan lives, Summer seems to have some of their ancestry; she has dark skin with silver hair.
In the manhua adaptation, she wears a beige dress with a grey sweater underneath. When she joins the Witch Union, she wears an outfit similar to a blackjack dealer.
Personality[]
Due to the recent abuse from her family and the initial misunderstanding about the Witch Union being a harem for the Prince, Summer was quiet and timid. However, thanks Wendy's nurturing, Summer gains confidence in her limited power and learns Roland is not the lecher previously rumored to be.
Summer begins feeling more at home with the Witch Union instead of her family, who greedily use Summer for her wages, while the Union treats her as a sister. Though she typically defers to her senior members of the Union for advice and decisions, preferring to let them settle matters.
Background[]
She and her family are migrants from the Southern Territory, and they moved to an inner city residential district in the Border Town half a month ago before Summer turned 18.[1]
The day when she turned 18, her elder brother caught a fish as a gift for her, but it was taken away by her elder second sister, and only half of the tail was left for her in the end.
That night, she hugged her quilt and cried. Then she dreamed that the fish returned to her bowl. When she woke up, she discovered that the fish was indeed there, and that she also had a new elder sister.
One was sitting at the table and eating the fish, while the other one was paralyzed with fear on the floor. However, the former soon disappeared together with the fish. At that time, she could feel that, those things that appeared had something to do with her. However, when she told her family about it, she was beaten up by her father and told not to scare her second sister.
After that, her second sister called her a witch and said that she had to leave home. Her elder brother retorted that there was no issue with her being a witch as there were many witches in the town. Her family quarreled over it and in the end, they decided to send her to Roland Wimbledon,[2] for the witches' entitled wage of one gold royal per month.[3]
