It’s the year 3101. Kazuo Tanaka, an investigative journalist from Tokyo, arrives in Paris to expose the corruption of a powerful politician. However, his investigation takes a deadly turn when Morrigan, a vampire, warns him of a sinister plot. Pursued by vampire clans eager for his unique blood—blood that can kill vampires—Kazuo’s life hangs in the balance. As Morrigan, her fiery familiar Siobhán, and Kazuo face off against the ruthless Marquis of the vampire clan “Les Ombres Sanglantes” and the enigmatic Comtesse of the clan “Les Gardiens de la Nuit”, they uncover a web of intrigue and danger. In a world where trust is scarce and enemies lurk in every shadow, Kazuo must navigate the treacherous landscape of vampire politics while fighting to save his own life. Together, they must battle an army of vampires, werewolves, cyborgs, confront their deepest fears, and one of them must make the ultimate sacrifice. If you're looking for a hardcore heavy action, cool car chases, lots of guns, no harem, realistic themes, and an MC that's not in highschool, this novel is for you.

She's twenty-two-years-old. This is the most important things about her. In her twenties, she's supposed to be in the prime of her life. Graduated from university. Starting her first corporate job. Meeting the love of her life and getting married. That's what she was told would happen. On the contrary, she's just an ordinary woman. She's still in university after taking two gap years. She's never been to a job interview. And she's never been in a proper relationship. Never mind meeting the love of her life! No one told her how lonely and confusing her twenties would be.
