The Troubles of Miss Nicola the Exorcist

After an untimely death, a Shinto exorcist finds herself reincarnated into another world as Miss Nicola von Weber. And that’s just the start of her troubles. On Nicola’s first day at a new school, she’s reunited with her childhood friend Sieghart. He’s now a handsome marquess who acts like a spoiled child around her, and wherever he goes, strange incidents follow. You see, Sieghart’s beauty attracts both people and...otherworldly admirers. Nicola thus has to put her homework aside and use her skills as an exorcist to save him—all while trying to avoid his inevitable proposal, for Sieghart once swore he’d never marry anyone but her. And so Nicola’s hectic, haunted life continues with a splash of romance, which she almost finds more annoying than the ghosts. All Nicola wants is normalcy, and this is the story of how she’ll (try to) get it.

Overcome with survivor’s guilt, Nicola von Weber plans to visit the grave of a vanquished foe. In this journey, the usual suspects who constantly consult her on matters of the occult—Sieghart, Alois, and Ernst—accompany her, along with two new faces. The young adventurers’ weekend trip away from the royal capital to the March of Ludendorff and Luneburg turns into one filled with pleasant and horrific surprises. How will Nicola resolve a ghoulish conspiracy involving the disappearances of a number of children from a lakeside town? And what will become of her budding romance with Sieghart as her father’s imminent elevation to the rank of marquess has made her a candidate for marriage to the prince? Although Nicola knows she will never marry Alois, she is unsure about doing so with Sieghart...
