Mercy Morgan was just an ordinary young man trying to make sense of his life, but fate had other plans. One fateful night while on the verge of death, he crossed paths with Michelle Elderblood, an ancient vampire whose bite changed everything. Now transformed into Merciless Minerva Elderblood II, he finds himself thrust into a hidden world of powerful vampires and dark secrets.

In this realm, where myth collides with reality, Merciless quickly realizes he is caught in a dangerous web of many powerful creatures. Meanwhile, the vampires operate under a singular, formidable king, and every encounter reveals the treacherous politics and hidden agendas that dictate their lives. Yet, amid the chaos, a singular purpose ignites within him: revenge.

Merciless barely a day old must face a harrowing exam that plunges him into the depths of forbidden knowledge, forcing him to confront not only the secrets of his new existence but also the gods who have forsaken him. The pain of his past fuels his determination, and as he navigates this perilous path, he wrestles with the question of whether he is merely a pawn in someone else's game before becoming a vampire, or if he is destined for something far greater.

Driven by a relentless thirst for vengeance, Merciless must gather strength and confront the darkest parts of his new identity. With every step he takes, the stakes rise, leading him closer to a confrontation that could alter the very fabric of his world.

Join Merciless on a gripping journey of discovery, power, and the quest for retribution. In a dark world filled with myth, danger, and relentless ambition, can one man's desire for revenge reshape his destiny, or will it consume him entirely?

Mercy's voice drifted lazily through Merciless's mind.


'You seem to favor the weird ones, haah?! Because out of all the witches in the Shared Collective, why her?'


"Her power could create an opening, but her abilities are at their best when she has enough information to work with. That means I'd need to face the Protector first, figure out his abilities, and gather what I can. Surviving that encounter, though... I'm not so sure."


At these words, Mercy just laughed and replied back as such.


'So we are right back at square 1.... kinda... how reassuring.'


"Honestly, I could use those two to help with my problem, but I'm not willing to take that risk. I have bigger plans for them, and their role is specific. They just need to stay at a distance when I use my blessing to summon two more witches through them."


Merciless stated his plan, to which Mercy responded with a curious question.
