Inside the castle, Axel stood in the extremely vast and dark lobby. The entire room was lit only by candle flames burning red, which made the atmosphere even more chilling. "Plak… plak… plak," the sound of bat wings flapping high above could be heard clearly, even though the bats themselves were invisible due to the dark ceiling.
Axel continued walking inside, following the long red carpet stretched out toward the throne room. But suddenly, when he reached the middle of the lobby, he sensed a bright light behind him. He turned and immediately spun around, his eyes wide.
"Huh… wh-what happened to you guys?" Axel asked.
"Huh?" the five wraiths behind him replied.
Axel saw that all the wraiths behind him were emitting different, extremely bright lights that made his eyes squint, forcing him to cover them with his arm. Their light made the entire dark castle lobby, which was only lit by red-flamed candles, become brightly illuminated.
"Kraaaaah,"
Axel was shocked to see a huge number of Lesser Vampires hanging from the ceiling like soldiers, covering their eyes. Axel, seeing himself surrounded, immediately braced for a fight, but suddenly, "kyaaaaaakh," the Lesser Vampires shrieked loudly, filling the lobby with noise. Something like their soul essence or blood, colored red, shot out of their bodies and streaked into the light enveloping the five wraiths with Axel. The Lesser Vampires whose soul essence left their bodies immediately crumbled and disintegrated without a trace.
"Aaaaaaaaaah," Sharon, Valerie, Bella, Hailey, and Avery screamed loudly.
"He-hey," Axel mumbled, confused and unsure what to do.
Suddenly, Axel saw his own body glowing brightly, and all the relics he wore emitted a blinding light that forced his eyes shut. He felt himself lifted and floating above the ground, but he couldn't do anything.
"Uh… wh-what is this?" Axel asked, panicking.
Axel couldn't move; he just kept his eyes shut, his heart pounding because he didn't know what was happening. A moment later, the light began to dim and soon disappeared. Axel felt his feet touch the ground again. Slowly, he opened his eyes and "whoah," he jumped back in shock.
The reason was that Sharon, Valerie, Bella, Hailey, and Avery were no longer wraiths; they had human-like forms, but their skin was a pale corpse-blue, their eyes were red, their ears were pointed upward, and their hair was white. They wore tight, revealing gowns made of leather.
A gemstone—red, blue, green, yellow, and purple—was embedded in each of their foreheads. Sharon, Valerie, Bella, Hailey, and Avery looked confused. They looked at their hands, touched their seemingly thin cheeks, and felt their long hair. Then they turned to look at Axel and immediately smiled, showing the fangs in their mouths.
"Axel," they said together joyfully.
"Huh… wh-what happened?" Axel asked, confused.
"I changed… my name is… uh? What is my name?" Sharon asked.
"Oh… that's right… I don't remember anything," Valerie added.
"I only remember… Axel, only Axel is in my memory and in my heart," Bella added.
"Before, I remembered something that wasn't finished… I did something once… but now I can't remember anything… I don't even remember who I am," Hailey added, holding her head.
"I'm the same, who am I? Axel, please tell me who I am?" Avery asked.
Axel was stunned. He was confused seeing the five women who looked like corpses or undead in front of him not remembering anything about themselves and seeming frightened. Axel raised his arm. He saw that his clothes had also changed; his attire looked like an armored tuxedo complete with metal shoulder pads, a pair of metal gauntlets, and metal boots. His pistol had become larger, and his sword was also more ornate. He immediately opened his status.

Axel was shocked by his status. Then he immediately looked at his attire, and finally, he looked at the five girls, who looked about 15 years old, in front of him, looking like undead or living corpses. Although their faces were still the same—Sharon with the red gem, Valerie with the blue gem, Bella with the green gem, Hailey with the yellow gem, and Avery with the purple gem—he could give them new names by inputting them, as they seemed to remember nothing and looked like they had been reborn into new individuals.
"Hmm… this is interesting," Axel murmured with a meaningful smile.
Then he also read his current status. Axel was extremely surprised because he was now a Lord Vampire and no longer a Dhampir.
"Wow… I'm become the hidden boss? Even though I just entered the castle and haven't done anything yet?" Axel asked himself, shocked.
"That's because you are my son. I passed my power onto you, so you can evolved," a woman said in a raspy voice.
Axel immediately turned around, his eyes wide, seeing a beautiful woman with black hair and red eyes, wearing an elegant red gown, clearly a vampire because of her fangs, standing in front of the wide-open throne room.
