The second book also features a powerful female protagonist, initially on par with the male protagonist, but later surpassing him. There are no scheming or manipulative characters, and no misunderstandings between the male and female leads.

    These are all novels where the female lead isn't a saint! The first one features a vampire princess who is reborn into a human body, gradually merging with it, turning her human body into a vampire! Not only is she not a saint, but she's also very arrogant and vengeful! She kicks the male lead against the wall on their second meeting, haha! The second female lead is called a "little enchantress"—that's pretty strong, isn't it?! The third female lead is also very strong, full of witty remarks, practically a walking meme queen! She's always arguing with everyone, including the male lead, who calls her the "Romantic Assassin Miss."
