Seirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles (Manga)

Rio's journey back to his hometown in Yagumo takes him and Latifa further into the forest. But even here, danger lurks when the local inhabitants attack! Can Latifa convince the Spirit Folk's warriors of Rio's innocence and begin building a new bond? And what of Haruto's spirit, still residing within? Drunken dwarves and harem hijinks are great and all, but trouble is never far away.
