Vampire and the Dayspring Star

“Then the first move is yours to make. Come at us however you wish!”   At the end of the road, only one was left standing against the greatest of Tyrants… and he could not dethrone the monster alone.   The party of four had set out on a journey to destroy the wicked Exaltare, ruler of the Vampires.   Departing from the Human Kingdom was the Stardust Champion Mizar, chosen by the Goddess to render salvation unto humanity. Accompanying him was a virtuous priest, whose kindness would drive him to offer up his own flesh and blood to the needy if not for his compatriots’ insistence; a retired knight, who’d once served as lieutenant-commander to the third of of the Kingdom’s five chivalric orders; along the way, they stumbled across a lady Wizard, who wielded knowledge and wisdom beyond her years to guide them. She proved to be an invaluable addition to the party.   Yet just before they stormed the palace, misfortune befell them until only the Hero and the veteran remained.   And the veritable Demon Lord’s Lair would not permit both to face its master.   But instead of the death he expected, what awaited him was mercy, a new role, and a cruel twist of fate as his new life began…   —as the Exaltare’s daughter.
