Thirty-Three Heavens of Vampire City [Western Fantasy]

(The scenes in the blurb have all been published! Please add my next new book to your list. Its blurb is at the end~)

The times were troubled, and the temple was in decline. To restore the temple's glory, the Pope decided to destroy a "city of sin" in a rain of heavenly fire, proclaiming the might of God.

One document, over ten thousand lives.

Rose couldn't believe it.

The temple had taken her in as a child. She was its most gifted young woman, the Pope's most cherished disciple, and the future Saintess. But for the sake of this city, she confronted the Pope and was eventually cast out and exiled.

So what!

Rose resolutely recruited a band of mercenaries and set off for the city. However, she discovered that things were far from simple.

A cage built of holy-light thorns, monsters in the lord's castle, an old woman of unknown origins... Even worse, her once-invincible magic was steadily draining away, and the reason seemed different from what she'd imagined.

The monsters still lurked in the shadows, and the deadline for the city's destruction drew nearer each day. However you looked at it, this was a hopeless situation.

The vampire city has thirty-three days. Will they be met by salvation or destruction?

#That night, on the most despairing, rain-soaked night, she knelt in the rain and prayed to any higher power that would listen, begging them to save everyone. But the gods did not answer. The one who answered her was herself.

A little scene:

"How am I supposed to hire you? I don't have any money left."

"Then give me a kiss."

"What can a kiss buy?"

"My loyalty, my life, everything I have."

Rose pulled Thorne close and kissed him gently. "I don't want your life. Because we're going to survive. All of us will survive."

Su Ruyun is the renowned Venerable Lingxiao, a peerless swordswoman.

She was gifted and brilliant from childhood, warmhearted and always ready to help others. Everyone who met her praised her for having the iron hand of a thunderbolt and the heart of a bodhisattva.

Unfortunately, the more admirable someone is, the more people love to watch them fall from grace.

Her fellow disciples smeared her reputation, and the righteous sects framed her. Overnight, she went from a beloved Venerable Immortal to a great demon whom everyone wanted dead.

Su Ruyun: I'm tired. Let it all burn.

So she faked her death.

When she returned, she hid her face behind a mask, traded her sword for a saber, and went back to the cultivation world to turn the tides and stir up trouble! You call me a demon? Then I'll play the demon for you!

--Though something seems off...

Why did my darling son turn into a deranged yandere after I faked my death?

Su Ruyun was pinned against the wall by her disciple, his hands covered in blood. His golden eyes were filled with wounded tears, but shone with a frightening intensity. He buried his face against her neck, whispering again and again, "Master, why did you abandon me..."

So pitiful... If only you hadn't just wiped out an entire family, you'd be more convincing!

Su Ruyun: I'm tired. Let it all burn. I mean the cultivation world.

Theme: Hope is the light before dawn.
