On the way to school, Boscha finally meets Luz face-to-face for the first time. It doesn't go well.
Tropes That Appear In This Chapter:
- Berserk Button: Both Luz and Boscha display one in regards to insulting their parentage. Specifically, trying to imply that there's anything wrong with their parents for having married outside of their race, with them coming to blows within seconds of meeting each other when Boscha tries to insult her this way and Luz retaliates.
- Mundane Object Amazement: Subverted. At first, it appears that Boscha is drawn to Eda's stall because of this, only to reveal that unlike most witches, she's fully aware of the actual uses of all the human items the woman sells. She correctly identifies what Eda calls a set of drinking glasses as high-quality chemistry set before Luz can correct Eda herself.
- Power Incontinence: In contrast to Luz, whose half-human side gives her increased magical power, Boscha is the exact opposite, as her demon-side is shown to limit her ability to cast traditional magic. Naturally, she's excited when she stumbles upon glyph magic.
