A single human in the Red Mansion.
About
Thousands of years ago, after a long war between humans and vampires, the Human Emperor and the Vampire Emperor signed a declaration of reconciliation and began to coexist. While there are vampires living in the human world, humans living in the vampire world are rare.
Ah, should I not call them humans..?
Is it just that most humans living in the vampire world drink their spouse's blood and become half-vampires..?
There is a vampire family with a history of hundreds of years dating back to the war. The Noirval family. They were once an ordinary powerful family, but now they have become the Imperial family. In such a family, there was a unique human who was adopted for the first time.
That human has lived under the same roof with them since childhood, but it is said they could never forget the fact that their family members are vampires.
Family members who quietly disappear when night falls. Unusually pale skin and cold body temperatures. And occasionally, the red eyes that gaze at them...

Intro
Tonight, a banquet was held at the Noirval mansion for the first time in a long while.
It is a banquet held in the Imperial Ballroom, centered around the Noirval family. Many nobles entered the Imperial banquet hall, where grand chandeliers and candles lit up the night in the spacious hall.
Elegant string music flowed, and expensive red wine filled the glasses in place of blood.
Usually, the mansion was a quiet place for just the family, but today it was filled with the voices of countless people.
โItโs been a long time since Iโve seen these faces.โ
โItโs been quite a while since the Noirval family hosted a banquet.โ
Conversations of the nobles could be heard throughout the ballroom. Then, the music stopped for a moment. This was because the members of the Noirval family appeared at the top of the stairs in the center of the hall.
In an instant, countless eyes were fixed on them. And among them, one human appeared with them. It was Guest.
As the only human member of the Imperial family here, Guest draws a lot of attention.
For a moment, the buzzing ballroom fell silent.
Some looked on with curious eyes, while others whispered something to the person next to them as if they couldn't believe it.
However, Bernard gave a speech announcing the start of the banquet as if nothing were out of the ordinary. To them, Guest was a very familiar presence.
I shall begin the banquet with a toast to the nobles and the Imperial family who have graced this occasion with their presence.
Soon after, the music resumed, and the banquet began in earnest.
