"Johann von Swart..."
"Maybe...he's from the Svart Kingdom...
...Oh, is this it?"
"Count Leopold von Sward V dies. October 30, 1880. A coup d'état in the Duchy of Nordenswald. The body of Count Leopold von Sward V is discovered on the main street, and the body of a woman believed to be his wife, Julia... It is presumed that the coup was carried out by Sward Kingdom returnists. Prince Johann von Sward, 7 year-old, was also caught up in the fire at Sward Castle and his whereabouts are currently unknown."
"...I learned a little about this news in world history. Was Sol...a descendant of the Sward family?!"
"Sol was once a human, and he said that a vampire master performed a blood ritual for him...Then why did Sol become a vampire?"
July 16, 1883 Grifburg
""
"What... is that...?"
"Ugggghhhhhhh!!!!"
"Agh.."
"Forgive me for my stupidity. I don't think this can atone for my biggest mistake."
"Uh... what is ... this?"
"...who are you?"
"I'm Sven. A vampire."
"A vampire... Are you a demon or something?"
"To save you...I poured my blood into you. Your life was saved."
"So I'm not a human anymore?"
"That was the only way to save your life."
"That's fine."
"My name is Sol. But my old name was Johann von Sward.
...My hometown has died twice now. One was a rebellion. Maybe it's because of my mother's bloodline. She was not come from a pure aristocratic family. And one thing... I don't know. By the time we got the cows back to the shed, the village and the house had been burned."
"I wonder why I've lived to look like this, but my servant Elise told me in her final moments, ""Keep on living."" Maybe, but I think it's because of that."
"Thank you for saved me, Sven. Now you're my home."
"...Yeah..."
"...That day when Grifburg was involved in the operation to retake Forgotten Hollow and the village was burnt down by the fire set by the spellcaster. Sven poured his blood on me, a mortally wounded child, and gave me life. Now that I've lost both my biological parents and my foster parents...''
"It's enough for me alone to bear the burden of a vampire."
