The plot of "The Witch and the Beast" revolves around the duo Guideau and Ashaf, who arrive in a town under the influence of a witch.

They have a personal score to settle and would not hesitate to eliminate anyone who stands in their way.

Kōsuke Satake first launched the manga in Kodansha's Young Magazine the 3rd in November 2016, which later moved to Monthly Young Magazine in 2021.
