Revenge, Becoming the strongest, living a wholesome life, protecting the world? Nope, I was just curious. Curious about what the world would be like if there wasn't a single main character. I have always hated main characters who take all the spotlight for themselves and make a fool out of everyone just because they can; I wanted a world where everyone can be a main character. A world where the antagonist can kill the protagonist, a world without a protagonist. I always thought that it was an impossible task... however, fate wasn't as cruel as everyone thought it to be. Or, maybe I was just lucky... Lucky enough to get a second chance. Lucky enough to create a world where everyone can be a protagonist of their own story (Maybe not everyone, but I tried my best), a world without a protagonist. --------------- Join the discord server. https://discord.gg/BaP4c8b8Vq The timeline will be determined through the votes of the readers in the server.

Subjected to a cruel prank by local bullies, Angel is forced to consume a vial of crimson liquid, unknowingly the last remaining drops of blood from the legendary and long-deceased Vampire Lord, Cain. This act, meant to humiliate, instead ignites a dormant power within Angel, transforming him into an unwilling heir to Cain's formidable legacy. Suddenly imbued with the strength, speed, and thirst of a vampire, Angel is thrust into a hidden world of ancient rivalries and deadly secrets. He must navigate the treacherous landscape of vampire society, where factions vie for power and whispers of Cain's return stir fear and ambition in equal measure.

The ruthless Hunter Faction, dedicated to eradicating all vampires, sees him as an abomination. The primal Wolf Faction, werewolves with their own complex history with vampires, eye him with suspicion and a predatory interest. And the enigmatic Mage Faction, wielders of arcane arts, recognize the potential power within him, but their motives remain shrouded in mystery.

He faces a relentless gauntlet of challenges: mastering his powers, understanding the nature of the curse that felled Cain, and surviving the machinations of these powerful factions who see him as either a threat or a tool.

He must confront not only the external forces that seek to destroy him, but also the darkness that threatens to consume him from within. Will Angel forge alliances with any of these dangerous factions? Will he succumb to the monstrous nature of his inheritance, or will he forge his own path, defying the expectations of a legacy he never asked for and facing the opposing forces that threaten to destroy him?

The two men couldn't have looked more out of place on the cold afternoon streets of New Hadepee. The first was a scrawny fellow, no taller than five foot eight, wearing a white shirt marred with ugly reddish-brown stains and a pair of plain tan pants. His companion, by contrast, carried himself with an air of quiet authority—a regal-looking man with a neatly trimmed black beard, wrapped in a great black coat with a red scarf pulled snug around his neck. "I heard the man himself has come back," the one in the stained shirt said, carefully balancing on the curb with his arms outstretched. "Oh? And where did you hear that?" his companion asked, turning his head with amusement to watch the precarious balancing act. "Welp, the sergeant major told me to go down to Olker, so I figured that could only mean he's back," the man in the white shirt replied. "Vistor has close cultural and political ties with the kingdom of Olker. Don't you think it's just a protection job?" the older man in black inquired, a hint of humor in his voice. "Oh, come on, Mang, you know they'd never give someone like me a protection job," the man in the white shirt scoffed, jumping off the curb and spinning around a lamppost. The older man—now known as Mang—came to a halt, reaching into his coat and pulling out an envelope. "Well, Tai, I suppose you're wrong." Mang handed the envelope to him. Tai peeled open the envelope, sliding out the letter and studying it carefully. "Oh wow, so Marlin is marrying the queen of those people?" he asked with a shrug. "She is not a queen. Don't let anyone call her that," Mang snapped. "And if her people weren't so damn difficult, we would have annexed them already." "So we let them succeed but not Gascon? Whose idea was that? They're more like us than those humans are," Tai said, frowning. "Gascon was willing to sell to the Emperor for a small chunk of change," Mang quipped. "The Noctrous family was not." "Ok so what's that matter, all we need is a little persuasion to change their minds? We killed the chief of Gnomandale and sent his stuffed head back to them, then they sold Gnomendale to us. All we need to do to get Olker is beat the hell out of Sylvie and she will sell." Tai folds the letter and places it back into the envelope. "Tai, the people of Vistor don't have the heart to see us beat up the Eladrin people like we did the Gnomes, and plus their Chief tramp Silvye is much too pretty for us to put her head on a stick."  "Welp, it's our loss," Tai muttered, spitting onto the sidewalk. "No, it's not. Not if Chester is back…" Tai frowned. "What's Chester gonna do?" "Last I recall, his fallout with Sylvie wasn't just a petty disagreement. Before he died, he built a fleet of ships and hid them in a cove somewhere. If he wanted revenge, all he'd need is an army." "And who the hell would fight for him?" "The same people who fight for us—the poor." This is a prequel to Then Maker, another story of mine.
