Madan no Ou to Vanadis is a light novel series written by Tsukasa Kawaguchi with illustrations and character designs from Yoshi☆o. The series began publication in April 2011 in Media Factory’s MF Bunko J imprint, with a total of 9 volumes released. A manga adaptation by Kawaguchi and Nobuhiko Yanai was also released in late 2011.

Here is a synopsis of the series from MAL:

Set in Western Europe during times of war, Eleanor “Ellen” Vertalia, one of the Vanadis of Zhcted, leads the battle into Brune. There are, in fact, seven Vanadis, named for having each received a powerful weapon from the dragon to individually reign over seven territories. The power of the Vanadis invokes dread and fear from their enemies. An earl in the service of the country of Brune, a young archer by the name of Tigre, experienced the Vandis’s power firsthand after being defeated on the battlefield by Ellen. However, Ellen chose to spare his life after witnessing his skills, but in exchange, he is asked to serve her.

The Madan no Ou to Vanadis anime will be animated by Satelight and will air this October during the Fall/Autumn 2014 anime season. Additional information about the anime will air in the upcoming weeks.
