The Scientist and the Fairy

Vermillion Academy rises from the depths of a primordial wilderness, its thousand-year-old spires piercing a silver mist that blurs the boundary between the physical world and a fairy tale dream.  Adrian Vale, a cold, ice-hearted genius scientist and the golden heir of the Vale Biomedical Conglomerate, commands the potential to rule the world yet chooses to begin again as a student. No one knows why he remains. He meets Mira Larkspur, a silver-haired scholarship girl who is the opposite of everything this institution represents, with dirt under her nails and a heart full of fungi and folklore. The series centers on their sharp, playful intellectual dynamic and the discovery that they are the last inheritors of two opposing ancient genes, tracing how Adrian gradually learns to feel again and how they unravel the myth hidden behind the academy’s walls. What to expect: A wholesome, slow-burn sapiosexual romance where opposites attract, moving from playful intellectual banter to a first love that blossoms throughout the cooling days of autumn.
