PROLOGUE

Drap… Drap…

"Huh huh, where should we go?"

"Dunno. Wherever we can!"

Brukk

"Ugh."

"Hey, hurry up!"

"No, sob. Just leave me."

"What are you talking about?!. Come on, let's go quickly!"

"I see something sparkling up ahead!"

The seven men quickly ran and found… an altar with a large mirror above it. They stop

"They're approaching!"

"Everyone follow me!"

The seven of them entered the mirror which was immediately followed by fanged creatures chasing them

Ssrk... Ssrk...

"Wow, Miss's ability is getting better."

Kara smiled a little then gave her sword to the maid

"Ah miss, Mr. Duke wants to invite you to dinner tonight in the garden with the other princes and princesses."

"Hm?. Is there a problem?" Kara guessed while wiping away her sweat

"I think it's about who will be the successor to the Tharos family."

Kara stopped and then gave her towel to another maid

"Kara!"

Everyone looked, all the maids immediately bowed. The woman, Leona Agustine Tharos, walked over proudly. She is Kara's stepmother

"What?." Kara asked curtly. Leona snorted

"Looks like you've heard from the maids. Too bad I was the one who wanted to tell you first." Leona's grunt

"F-forgive us Your Majesty!"

"It's not their fault. You're just being slow."

"What?!."

"Get my clothes ready." Kara said. The maid nodded obediently

Kara stared at Leona for a moment then walked away. Meanwhile Leona hit a maid because of her annoyance

Time goes so fast. The sun sets and the moon takes its place. Kara is ready with her suit. She, Caraline Oliveira Tharos, the third daughter who rarely wears dresses. Sharp weapons are always with him. Kara's indifferent and assertive nature makes people reluctant, but she is more concerned with her people so that many expect him to become the successor to the Tharos family. But for Kara, she doesn't need that important position

"Miss, don't you want to wear the dress Mr. Duke gave you? Maybe he will be very happy."

Kara glanced at the paper bag her father gave her. Namely a knee-length purple dress without shoulders and short sleeves

"It's from dad? I think it's from Leona." Kara said

"Ah, sorry I didn't say it earlier. Yes, it's from Mr. Duke."

"Hmm, just for tonight anyway. Well, help me." Final Kara

The maids smiled happily and were happy to immediately help put on the dress. Kara smiled a little seeing her different reflection

Kara suddenly looked at the window, she immediately stood up and approached the window making the maids confused

"Miss?"

Kara stared at the forest that was right beside the palace

"Ah no, I think I saw something earlier. Maybe it's just my illusion." Kara put on her glass slipper and immediately went out into the garden

"Enough of this, you guys go." Kara spoke softly. The maids were flattered and bowed respectfully and left

"Kara?."

Kara turned and stared flatly at the handsome man then left him. He, Atlas Azzura Tharos, Kara's half-brother

"Kara? Wow, you look even brighter." Said Alice, Kara's first sister

"This is the new princess." Added Deana, Kara's second sister

Kara just smiled and sat down, followed by Atlas beside her. The father, Vince Vaughn Tharos, and his wife immediately came and were amazed by another form of Kara. Meanwhile, Leona held back her anger because Vince kept praising her

The food came and they ate it quietly

"Father."

Vince looked up with a sigh

"I received reports from the people. There is a strange virus that attacks children. At first they were thought to have an ordinary fever, but over time the sufferer's body turned blue and his appetite decreased." Kara said

"Just give the matter to the Staker." Leona's grunt

Kara just glanced at her indifferently. Atlas Alice and Deana weren't fazed and were still engrossed in their meal

"Father, this time let me intervene."

Everyone is shocked

"Honey you know-."

"This incident has been going on for 2 years. Staker doesn't even know what's causing the problem. I have to go downstairs to find out what's going on."

"Kara you can't go against your father!" Leona snapped suddenly

Kara stared

"Want to hear my comment?. Nobles are weak. Because they take refuge behind treasures and warriors. Why do you think I practice swordsmanship when there is a prince?. Because there won't be a

who can protect us, besides ourselves." Kara's words made everyone silent, even the maids who overheard were stunned

"I am done." Kara got up and started to leave the garden followed by the maids

Midnight…

"Hahh, I can't sleep. It's outrageous, why didn't Staker answer my message? Afraid of being scolded by father? He's a coward." Kara got up and opened the window

She took her arrows and book and climbed out of the window so that he was on the roof of the palace

"Okay, how many chapters were there yesterday?" Kara opened her book

"Hmm, vampires huh. Do they exist? Just read it, Kara."

On the other hand, the seven boys were trying to keep running away from the crimson-eyed creatures. Until suddenly a fiery arrow shot and stabbed into the creature's heart

"Ha?."

The flaming arrows shot and obliterated the fanged creatures that were chasing them

"Where does it come from?."

"There!."

They looked up and locked eyes with a girl

"Who are you?"
