Witch on the Holy Night tells the story of a trio who live together in an old Western mansion on the outskirts of a Japanese town. Rumor has it that a witch lives in the place, and that might not be so far-fetched. After all, Aoko Aozaki studies her sorcery in the area under the tutelage of Alice Kuonji.

Eventually, he encounters these two mages in the most unconventional of circumstances, initiating a curious set of bonds.
