Once upon a time, humans and vampires lived side by side, though their relationship was never truly harmonious. Humans viewed vampires as dangerous creatures, while vampires viewed humans as weak creatures who could only survive through their protection.
The dispute that lasted for hundreds of years finally sparked a great war called The Crimson War.
The war ended with the victory of the vampires.
Since then, the status of humans has slowly shifted. Vampires have taken over governments, territories, and even educational institutions. Humans are still allowed to live, study, and have noble families, but they no longer have equal status.
Today, the world is divided into several castes..

Must comply with caste regulations at the university.
Silver Badge — Noble Class
A man from a noble family.
Vampire of noble descent.
Get special facilities.
Have the right to attend the noble meeting.
Black Badge — The Five Pillars
Only the five strongest vampires have it.
Not subject to regular student regulations.
Has special powers over universities.
Even the royal families have to consider their decisions.

Vespera University is the most prestigious university in the Valtherion Empire.
This university is a gathering place for descendants of noble vampires, humans from noble families, and even ordinary people.
However, there is one thing that makes Vespera different.
In the center of the university stand five giant black stone pillars. Each pillar bears the family crest of the five most powerful vampires.
These five pillars are not merely symbols. They are the highest authority within the university.
They can change schedules, make rules, give punishments, and even organize students' lives as they please.
