The next thing I saw after my vision went dark, was a classroom. It was obvious that this was a Japanese classroom because of the content I saw on the blackboard.
I was sitting at the protagonist's seat by the window.
'Hah..hah'. I started panting all of a sudden because of the various blood delicacies around me. I pressed my palm against my mouth and stood up immediately.
"Ah, Yuuta Kun. Are you okay?" I heard the sensei calling out for me. Since my memories were flaring back in my brain I knew she was referring to me. I looked up in her direction and was shocked at who the person was in front of my eyes.
'I have to get out now.' " Sensei I am feeling sick". I didn't wait for her response and dashed out of the classroom.
From my memories, I knew the structure of the school so it wasn't a problem to find the washroom. I almost ran in the way to the bathroom and after entering I directly went inside a stall.
I sat on a pot while panting heavily.
"I thought I was ready now. " I bit on the meaty part of my palm however, nothing came out. I waited for a long time until my bloodlust subdued a little.
"This is frustrating". My instinct was telling me to corner someone and feast on them right away, but...
"Lilith would be sad if I waste her teaching just after the rebirth". I inhaled a lot of air and stood up.
I came in front of the mirror of the washroom and checked myself. I had black hair with faded red pupils and a sharp face almost identical to the deadly sin of greed. I recalled all the memories which were flaring back until I came here. My name was Yuuta Shirogane. A 17-year-old boy who lives with his cute older sister. I was an orphan before my adoptive parents took me in, so my sister was also not blood-related to me.
Other than that, my personality was quite the loner type. I wasn't bullied but wasn't liked by other students much. I didn't have any girlfriend just a slight crush on one of my classmates, however, various girls were waiting for my response. And the most important thing...
"There are various anime characters in this world". From my memories, my sister is an anime character as well as my teacher which I saw right now. I didn't know how these anime characters were here when I wasn't in an anime world. Well, I couldn't care less, as all the characters I remember from my memories who exist in this world are my favorites.

After calming down for another 10 minutes and collecting all the thoughts, I started walking back to my classroom.
*Slide*.
"Oh you are back. Are you alright now". A woman with black hair and beautiful purple eyes asked me.
"I am okay Shizuka sensei". I was a little shocked to realize that I spoke Japanese so fluently, but I didn't let it show on my face.
I took my seat and focused on the blackboard, completely ignoring the murmurs going around me. It seemed that almost everyone even sensei was focused on me. After that period, lunch break arrived. I ran upstairs and reached the terrace where no one was present.
I took a long whiff of fresh air and calmed myself. In this world, I had only drunk blood directly from a human, thrice in my whole 17 years of life. And usually drank the blood which I stole from the blood bank. Since that blood only helped me with my thirst, I never got stronger.
'Sigh~ my old self was so passive'. I sighed as I never tried to make bonds nor considered hunting before.
"Master~" I heard a voice of a child which made me startled all of a sudden. I glanced at my surroundings and found nothing.
"Master over here~". When I followed the voice and looked up in the air, I saw a small figure descending from the sky.
As it approached me, I raised my hand and caught it inside my grasp.
I lowered my hand and saw a small pixie-type doll with a blue frock and cute red marks on the cheeks. If I didn't have heard its voice then I would have assumed that it was a figurine or something.
" What are you?" I asked at the smiling doll in my hand. Anyone would have considered me as a lunatic if they would have seen me talking to a toy.
"I am an assistant. Lilith sent me to help you know about the current situation of this planet". It was weird to hear something from a nonliving thing but I was more focused on what she said.
" Lilith huh. Anyway, tell me I am all ears". I sat on the railing and focused on the figurine.
"Stop calling me a toy, master. I have a very sexy body, in reality. This is something I made to communicate with you conveniently. And my name is Riri " With a wry smile, I just nodded.
"*ahem*, Anyway back to the point. This planet is almost identical to your previous one, in fact, this is the reason why you were sent to your previous planet, to begin with," I was surprised but didn't interrupt her.
"In this world, there are various species other than human residing since this world was established. Many epics and beliefs have mentioned the presence of these species but the modernity of people made them ignorant of the fact". I just listened to her carefully, as these facts were still unknown to me. Lilith told me about the different species but she never told me that they were present here since this long time.
" Yes, Lilith wasn't allowed to tell you about it, nor I am. But you can say I am a cheat presence here which Lilith somehow managed to hide from the God". I was literally shocked as Lilith did this much just to help me, going to the point where she betrayed god.
'Why Lilith?'. I was feeling somewhat conflicted thinking about various things.
"Don't sweat about it master. Lilith doesn't help someone on a whim. She must have got fond of you ~". I narrowed my eyes at the pixie.
" Don't try to tease me". I tickled her head with my index finger.
"Hehe..master I can't feel anything so don't try anything funny" I was feeling lame now.
"Okay then. Where we were, yes. The power imbalance. Vampires have reigned superiority since ancient times but never discriminated against any other being nor ever tried to suppress them. But everything changed some years ago". I didn't have any idea about these things so I was focusing on her every word carefully.
" 5 years ago, the queen of vampires, Scáthach Scarlett, went to deep sleep due to lack of blood. She is the queen of vampires and one of the very first of your species who came into existence. Since the Queen was in charge, no one dared to rebel against her. " She paused when I picked up.
"Why does she suddenly lacked blood after all this time?" I asked as I knew that vampire origin was older than 5000 years and since the queen lived that long, then why so suddenly she decided to sleep.
"You know, how many core vampires are there right?" I shook my head as Lilith never told me about this. She just taught me about vampires and how to control my powers, but what was the condition and history of the vampires residing on this planet were still unspecified to me.
"Okay. Let me tell you about it. Three vampires originally came into existence. All the others were subsidiaries or descendants of these origin beings. Now apart from the Queen, there was a king too who ruled for 4000 years and due to some reason, he had to die a millennium ago. And since, the queen can only feast on the king's blood, five years ago she also reached her limit. "
"Why, I mean can't she just hunt some other vampire?"
"No, she is a very loyal wife you know. " I raised my brows in astonishment as it was really rare to see a person so loyal these days.
"By the way, 17 years ago the reascends of the Vampire King took place and a new king with the same bloodline came in this world". I frowned my brows and asked her.
" Is it really what I am thinking it is?" I already got a hunch from the various knots that where this was going.
"Yes, 17 years ago a great personage returned to his homeland in the form of a child and he is none other than you, master. You are the new king".
