Anne, a girl whose late mother was a revered Silver Sugar Master, decides to inherit the craft and become Silver Sugar Master herself. To do that, she should prove her crafting skill at the royal capital's Royal Candy Fair. On the way to the royal capital city, she employed a warrior fairy named Challe as her bodyguard. Although Challe's ability as a warrior is true, he has a foul mouth and distrusts humans, thus, clashes with Anne are inevitable.
