[One Heroine x Vampire Lady] [Terminally Ill, Life-Burning Protagonist x Female Characters with Contrasting Traits]
Steam roars, and a red moon hangs overhead:
Right after Kane transmigrates, the System sentences him to death. Severe essence infection. Life expectancy remaining: 20 days!
"This is so occult!"
All he wants is to hunt demons, earn points, devour essence, break through the sequence limit, and survive a few more years in this industrial city.
"I have the [Demon Hunter Life System]. The more demons I hunt, the longer I live. I'll hunt until I'm old, and live until I'm old. My essence-fueled lifespan will never run out!"

The tsundere vampire heiress: "Lowly human, stay away from me! ... Hey, it's dark, and the moonlight is so hot. Y-you can't leave yet!"

"Ladies, please calm down! You don't want me to absorb all your essence, do you?"
The underground world hails him as a mad demon hunter who appears like a dragon and vanishes like the wind. Even the Church's upper echelons are fighting over who gets to recruit him!
"The whole city is under curfew tonight. First I'll go hunting demons to stock up on a few days' worth of life, then I'll apply for an outer position at the Church and get a proper job... Wait, why are you all gathered outside my house?!"
Until one day, the System displays: [Singularity Essence: Consume your entire lifespan to assimilate with it. Absorbing it will let you ascend to godhood~]
