Road To Red
In a world where many species coexisted, a clan in Miroi City held a unique tradition.
The rare individuals who carried the blood of multiple species were known as the "Kisuki." For generations, the Kibishi Clan sought to create the strongest descendant—one who could inherit the combined powers of a witch, a werewolf, and a vampire. The Perfect Kisuki.
After many attempts, they came close to achieving their goal. But everything changed when Haruko, a promising descendant with the blood of both vampire and werewolf, fell in love with a human.
Humans were ordinary creatures. They didn’t have the strength of werewolves, the battle magic of vampires, or the healing abilities of witches. Breeding with a human was considered a dangerous taboo. Adding human blood to the clan’s lineage would only weaken it—or so the Kibishi believed.
Disowned by her family for defying this tradition, Haruko left Miroi City with her human husband, Minato, and started a new life in Kuroko City.
There, they had a daughter named Muroi. She carried an unusual mix of traits: 70% werewolf, 11% vampire, 17% human, and 2% witch. How she inherited even a trace of witch blood remained a mystery. Her parents, however, saw it as a blessing and never questioned it further.

Chapter 1: Road to Kuroko City
Early in the morning, a white-haired girl with a red streak in her hair walked down the road, yawning.
(First day of high school, and instead of being excited, I feel like I need a nap.)
To secure a better education, Muroi had transferred to Damne Academy, one of the most prestigious schools in the region. Unfortunately, it was also a school heavily dominated by vampires.
(Why did it have to be vampires?) she thought, suppressing a groan.
The school’s founder, the honored and respected Damnero Ritero, who was himself a vampire. Muroi had spent hours researching the academy, hoping to be prepared.
(Looking back, that was probably a huge waste of time.)
Flashback: A few days earlier…
“Muroi, honey, you have to go! It’s for your future!” Haruko pleaded, clasping her hands together.
“I’m sorry to disappoint you, dear mother, but I’m not about to risk my life in a school full of bloodthirsty vampires.” Muroi replied, traces of sarcasm in her voice.
Haruko frowned. “But you’re part vampire yourself! I told you that already.”
“Yes, and I have human blood too, remember? Any other species would think I’m just a regular human—I even smell like one!”
(Despite being only 17%, my scent is mostly human. Lucky me.)
Haruko waved off her concerns. “That’s not a big deal! You’re tough—probably even a little crazy.”
Muroi arched a brow. “Is that supposed to be a compliment?”
Haruko sighed and shot a glance at Minato, who was quietly reading in the corner. “Minato, why won’t you help me convince her?”
Minato barely looked up from his book. “You’re the one who wanted to send her there. Why are you dragging me into this?”
Haruko huffed and turned back to Muroi with a desperate look. “Do you remember how you used to try and bite the neighbor’s hand when you were tired? He was a werewolf too! You seriously thought biting him would give you energy.”
(Here we go again.) Muroi rolled her eyes. (She always brings up stories of my childhood—and she won’t stop until she gets what she wants.)
