Kieli Vol 9 Light Novel

Kieli, Harvey, and their companions are trapped inside the Church's headquarters, which is still surrounded by monsters. But the biggest and most terrifying monster of all turns out to be an old friend-Jude. This is a fight that needs to be won before either Harvey or Kieli can move on, though they have very different ideas on how to go about securing victory... The manga adaptation of Kieli was named to the Great Graphic Novels for Teens 2009 list by the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA)!

It's been a year and a half since Harvey left Kieli and the Corporal in Beatrix's care. Though she hasn't heard a word from him in all that time, Kieli can't forget the Undying who took her under his wing. When Beatrix receives a cryptic note from Harvey indicating that he's discovered information about Kieli's mother, Kieli abandons the Corporal and Beatrix in an effort to track Harvey down, but the passing of time has not been kind to the Undying. Will Harvey and Kieli have a second chance at a life together, or is this the end of their story?

As the holidays wind down, Kieli continues her "research trip" with her companions - Harvey, a near-immortal soldier known as an Undying, and the Corporal, a soldier's spirit possessing an old radio. Their fates irrevocably intertwined by a bloody war waged eighty years ago, Harvey has promised to help the Corporal pass on by returning him to his final resting place...even with Kieli tagging along. But when saying their last good-byes to the Corporal goes awry, and they are attacked by Church soldiers after Undying hearts, Harvey is convinced that it would be best for Kieli to go home. But is it really Kieli that needs saving...or is Harvey sacrificing his last hope for salvation?

Kieli sees ghosts. It's an odd ability for a 14-year-old girl, and it makes her a bit of an outcast at her boarding school. Her only friend, in fact, is the (semi-) departed spirit of a girl who used to inhabit her room. That is until the two encounter a young man who appears to share Kieli's "gift." It doesn't take long to discover, though, Harvey is an altogether different sort of creature - one of the infamous Undying, the reanimated corpse of a dead soldier. Could it be that in this cursed fellow Kieli has finally found a kindred spirit? Throwing in her lot with this strange, soulless man and his possessed radio, she means to find out...

Kieli is a reclusive girl isolated by her ability to see ghosts. Her only friend is her "roommate," Becca, the precocious spirit of a former student still residing in Kieli's dorm. Everything in Kieli's life changes suddenly when the girls meet the handsome but distant Harvey who, like Kieli, can see ghosts. He also turns out to be one of the legendary Undying, an immortal soldier bred for war now being hunted by the Church. When Kieli joins Harvey on a pilgrimage to lay to rest the spirit of a corporal possessing an old radio, as unlikely as it seems, she feels she may have finally found a place where she belongs in the world. And in Kieli, Harvey may have found a reason to live again.

Kieli, Harvey, and the Corporal are on their way to the capital with Joachim in tow...though nobody seems too happy about it. But when undead monsters attack their train, the group is separated, leaving Kieli on her own - that is, until she meets her father! Now that she's reunited with her relative and her old friend Julius to boot, does this mean the end of Kieli's adventures with Harvey and the Corporal?

Her spirit cast adrift, Kieli finds herself trapped in the world of Harvey's past and witnessing the worst day of a young Ephraim's life. Can she - with a little help from Harvey in the land of the living - find her way back to her body? Perhaps more importantly, is there anything she can do for the spirits who have taken her under their wing?

Reunited after too many hardships, Kieli, Harvey, and the Corporal arrive in Westerbury in hopes of locating Beatrix. Instead, they find themselves settling in with an old friend, Shiman, and his traveling performance troupe. Despite the relative ease of their new arrangement, Kieli senses that Harvey remains strangely distant, and secrets he's been keeping threaten to tear them apart - perhaps permanently. Is Kieli prepared not only to learn the bitter truths that Harvey has been concealing but also to discover a past that the Undying himself may not recall?
