At Cross Academy, a modern boarding school divided between a human Day Class and a secretive vampire Night Class, fragile peace depends on strict separation and guardianship. Pureblood bloodlines, vampire law, and hunter weapons shape society, while ancient rivalries threaten coexistence. Yuki serves as Guardian of Cross Academy, caught between human loyalty, vampire duty, and escalating aristocratic conflict.

Notes

Brown-bobbed Yuki, in Cross Academy uniform with Pureblood seal, is compassionate, determined, conflicted, loyal, self-sacrificing, seeking coexistence amid guilt. She wields the Artemis Rod, an anti-vampire weapon that transforms into a scythe; as a Pureblood, she possesses immense supernatural power, telekinesis, and longevity, but at the cost of her human life and the constant threat of vampire power struggles.
