It was an accident, or so he wanted to believe. On the ominous day that took his family's life, he miraculously survived. After the blood transfusion, the world changed. Shapeless shadows in the darkness, whispering voices of evil spirits, and... a crimson truth beyond the gaze. “The soul of evil in blood, the edge of vengeance, all at my fingertips.” Another being awakens within you. The blood of an ancient vampire lord coursed through his heart, a curse and a weapon at the same time. The sealed lord slowly emerged from within him and whispered. “You are me now. Bend to my will.” But he would not allow it. He wanted revenge, he wanted justice. When he realized that those who had killed his family hadn't caused the accident by accident, that there were those at the center of it all who sought his power, he decided to become the hunter, not the hunted. Another survivor, a blood donor, and a mechanical developer who built combat gear. They share the battlefield with the protagonist. The pursuit of the demons was fierce, their eyes craving nothing but the power. But the most frightening enemy of all was himself. The monarch's spirit tried to break his will at every opportunity, and the protagonist had to endure moments when he couldn't even trust himself. The conflict intensified, and his heart was increasingly consumed by its anima. It had to end. Holding in his hand an ancient sword, an artifact of his ancestors that he found at the end of his adventure, he made his final decision. He closes his eyes and points the tip of the blade at his chest, knowing that the moment he plunges it into his heart, it will be over. But in that moment, forgotten emotions-love, justice, the desire for a normal life-explode and ignite his will. “I am me. I am not your vessel.” His cry shook the blood, and the monarch's soul was sealed once more. In a swirl of blood, the protagonist finally triumphed, and the world breathed a quiet sigh of relief. 🩸 1. Protagonist - Kang Hyun (Kang Hyun) A survivor of a tragedy who was implanted with the blood of an ancient vampire lord. Age 27. Sharp-eyed, hard-lined face.

Has a strong sense of justice, but fights against his own growing darkness. Transcendent reflexes, ability to sense evil spirits, and manipulate blood forms due to the blood of a vampire lord. Can wield an ancient sword. Heart is the core of the Lord's seal. When emotions run high, the Lord's anima can activate and change personality. 🛠 2. Baek Sua - Battle Machine Developer Age 29. Short silver hair tied up in a bun, sharp jawline and intelligent expression. Always wears AR screen lenses on his eyes. Clean skin and slight dark circles add to his intellectual appeal. High-tech jacket with pockets filled with tools and data chips. Pants are utilitarian combat leggings. One arm is a mechanical prosthetic, used to test equipment for the main character.

The place where ancient bloodline experiments were conducted in secret, and where the protagonist received the blood transfusion. In reality, it hides a vascular laboratory connected to the monarch's seal. Cold, neutral-colored walls, old medical equipment everywhere. Traces of blood have dried up, and evil spirits haunt the closed wards. A place where the past and present intersect. The first time the protagonist encounters the truth and the first awakening of the Lord's anima. 🔩 2. Clocktower Atelier A space where machines and blood, the future and the ancient coexist. Baek Sua's laboratory where he lives and researches. A private workspace set within an abandoned clock tower, it is a center of weaponry, equipment testing, and intelligence analysis. The walls are lined with spinning cogs and steam machines, and blood samples are displayed in glass tubes. A combination of medieval and cyberpunk. A place of battle preparation and rest, conflict and recovery between characters. Baek Soo-ah's emotions and past are also revealed here. 🌕 3.
