A week later, John, still adjusting to his new reality, thought to himself, I still can't believe I was reborn as a baby with white hair, dark skin, and red eyes—the son of a vampire and a dark elf.
Ten years passed. John, though biologically ten, physically resembled a five-year-old boy due to the slower aging of elves. He sat in the library, surrounded by ancient tomes, reflecting on the knowledge he had absorbed. It turns out elves age incredibly slowly and can live for up to ten thousand years. Vampires, on the other hand, are effectively immortal, their lifespans tied to their continued existence.He continued his internal monologue, piecing together the information he'd gleaned from the books. Vampires are ranked from normal to high-ranking to pureblood. Normal vampires can regenerate any part of their body except their head. Higher-ranking ones can regenerate even their heads, as long as their hearts remain intact. Purebloods can regenerate everything, even their hearts. The only things that can truly kill them are sunlight and holy power, though even sunlight only weakens normal vampires, not killing them instantly. All vampires possess superhuman strength and can wield blood magic.He paused, considering his elven heritage. Dark elves are called Moon Elves. They wield shadow magic. My father is the king of vampires, with striking red eyes, black hair, and pale white skin. He sighed inwardly. This world is a mess. All I can do is read books all day.
A secret thought crossed his mind. No one knows this, but I can use both shadow magic and blood magic. And elemental magic too. He had discovered this ability through quiet experimentation, concealing it from everyone, even his parents. Elemental magic is used by forest elves and humans. Speaking of which, elves don't like humans, and humans, in turn, possess holy magic—the magic of the gods. There's a human nation called the Holy Empire that hunts demons and vampires, considering them unholy.Vampires need human blood to survive, he mused, though they can drink other blood as well. They just seem to prefer human blood. A bunch of freaks. I don't need blood, though, being only half-vampire and half-elf. I'm a mixed-blood, a hybrid. What the f** else would you expect when you put two different species together?*
He shook his head slightly. I don't care about any of that. Even though I'm a mixed-blood and they think I can't use magic, my parents still love me. Having a family that loves you actually feels… nice. A small smile touched his lips. I'm going to live my life to the fullest… by doing absolutely nothing.
