Chapter 26, titled “26th Hunt: Lord Bakagami,”provides insights into Bakagami’s backstory, tracing events from a decade ago. The chapter opens with soldiers searching for Princess Richia, who had recently lost her mother. Overcome with grief, she escapes her home only to encounter a tapir-like Majik that alleviates her sadness, leading her to share this magic with others in her town.

An inspection by the Witches’ Association later identifies this Majik as “The Blessed Slumber Majik,”now known as Bakagami. Gaining its favor transforms the fortunes of the land, prompting an influx of visitors. However, restrictions are placed on acquiring Bakagami to prevent overexploitation and to protect the Majik.

Fast forward to the present, Desscaras expresses concern over the Majik’s growing danger, while the Royal Escort stands firm against any inclination to confront Bakagami. The chapter concludes with Ichi and Gokuraku’s unexpected entrance, resulting in an explosive confrontation that uncovers the vibrant truth behind Bakagami’s appearance.

Speculations for Ichi the Witch Chapter 27

Chapter 27 is likely to start with Gokuraku and Ichi continuing their dynamic entry into Bakagami’s domain. Desscaras and Kumugi’s reactions will be monumental, especially given their previous experiences with the duo. Tension will rise as consequences loom over any attempts to engage with Lord Bakagami, as hinted by the Royal Escort.

Princess Richia will undoubtedly seek to advocate for Bakagami during this fraught encounter. However, the chapter may emphasize Ichi’s acute awareness and the response of the King Majik residing within Bakagami, stirring intrigue around its true nature as either a benign or ominous force.
