Bab 51: Chapter 51: The Archdukes.

A vampire was an immortal, ageless race that survived by devouring human blood.

Their existence among humans had lasted countless centuries as they hid in the shadows and hunted their prey whenever hunger struck. Many did it for the thrill of the hunt.

In time, the number of Vampires gradually increased until it reached its present level.

However, that led some to ask, where did it all begin?

The Ancestral Vampires. The very first Vampires, the ancestors, the group which existed far before any other. Their identities were unknown and how they became vampires in the first place was a mystery that remained unsolved.

To avoid causing chaos in the balance of power, the Ancestral Vampires split up and gathered in their respective continents and countries.

By increasing their numbers and manipulating civilisation as they saw fit, they created their own kingdom of the shadows. What is known today as the Vampire World.
