Story
Reincarnated as a vampire born to a noble father and his shunned concubine, Mercedes Grunewald has always known that her father will one day choose an heir that isn’t her. With a mother who has no special skills and an aging maid, the question of how her small family will survive on their own looms large. Her solution: dungeon crawling — a job anyone can do, even a child.
Mercedes begins training at kindergarten age, and her vampire heritage gives her the potential to grow exceptionally strong. Where her past life ended in unfulfillment, this time she is determined to find something in the dungeons that will make her moon full once more.
