While the investigation proceeds, Cid is specifically drawn to the Blood Queen, a vampire who has been slumbering in her coffin for eons. As her awakening approaches, Cid anticipates a potential day of reckoning. This narrative follows Cid, who was isekai'd to another world and established an underground organization to fight what he believed was a made-up cult, only to discover that the cult is real. Cid aims to be a shadowbroker, an individual who poses as an unremarkable person while controlling everything from behind the scenes. To achieve this, he trains in secret every night. The current events in the Lawless City represent the next stage of his plans as the hour of awakening draws near.
