The manhwa Memoirs of a Witch combines many genres, including fantasy, mystery, and romance, and has established a solid foundation for the story with Chapter 1. The story follows Lily, who fights for freedom from the evil king to protect her family.
Memoirs of a Witch introduces the reader to the king's palace. The lobby is seen, and the narrator notices side doors that open outward.
Furthermore, Lily, the black witch, declares that she will stand as a puppet in the ceremony, which is one of the important events in this Chapter. The following frames show a series of red speech bubbles looking into the witch's past.
The King declares that the Witch is his property, and people fear her power. Likewise, he asks Lily to believe in herself because the palace and the kingdom are like thin ice where people try to break each other for their own benefit.
He further described the danger in the kingdom to Lily, “Survive. Now people will try to threaten you at every opportunity to get you out of this place. You are mine until death. Don’t try to resist.”
However, Lily was snapped out of her thoughts when the palace nuns called her out. The witch had been on the wrong path all along. They criticized Lily for making such a mistake despite having lived in the palace for over nine years.
At that moment, an unknown figure enters the scene and warns the nun about the witch's power. They reveal that Lily cannot use magic without the King's permission, but anyone who has approached the Witch before is dead.
Immediately after that, Memoirs of a Witch Chapter 1 will explore Lily's relationship with the king and why she decided to serve him for so many years.
In Memoirs of a Witch, the king takes advantage of the witch, treating her rudely every chance he gets!
The story begins in the 16th century when a witch hunt begins in the country after the young tyrant Paul, a descendant of Faust, seizes the throne after killing all his relatives.
Despite his power, the King was unable to change the control between the church and the war, leading to famine, disease and conflict throughout the country. Every citizen feared that the end of the world had come.
Soon, people began targeting witches and wizards, but 2 centuries before the main story, the king captured Lily after she got separated from her brother Ben.
The king immediately reveals his plan to use Lily to gain ultimate power. He also threatens to kill her family, including Lily, if she reveals the secret.
Furthermore, the king had bad intentions at first when he declared, “And I will find another child to replace you. Cursed, if you join me, no one will be harmed. You will be the only witch living in this country.”
Final, Memoirs of a Witch Chapter 1 as he compliments her. Lili seems clearly annoyed by this action and orders him to leave, the clown wishing her luck as she enters the Conveyor.
