The thing is, her new unit consists solely of belligerent ruffians who revolt against their superiors at the slightest hint of weakness. Although Komari hails from a line of vampires as powerful as they are prestigious, her refusal to drink blood has made her the picture of mediocrity—scrawny, un-coordinated, and inept at magic. With the odds stacked against her, will the help of her trusty (and slightly infatuated) maid Vill be enough for this recluse to blunder her way to success? Or will Komari rue the day she ever left the safety of her room? less

When Komari unintentionally agitates one of her fellow Crimson Lords, Frette Mascarelle, things escalate until she finds herself embroiled in a competition against the other generals... moreWhen Komari unintentionally agitates one of her fellow Crimson Lords, Frette Mascarelle, things escalate until she finds herself embroiled in a competition against the other generals. You’d think the Lords would all be tough as nails, but…it turns out that one of them, Sakuna, is even more timid than Komari herself and shares her love of reading! Meanwhile, as Vill grows slightly jealous of the two girls’ budding friendship, a sinister plot to assassinate important figures in the Imperial Court brews in the background… With so much going on, will the Shut-In Vampire ever get a moment’s peace?! less

With the conclusion of the Six Nations War, Komari’s life finally starts to settle down...or so she thinks! At the behest of Karla Amatsu, a commander from Heavenly Paradise, Komari is sent as an envoy to a far eastern nation where a major crisis lies in wait! Will this vampire princess ever catch a break?

There’s a new face in the Komari unit! Though Komari is initially worried that Esther, an honors student from the Mulnite military academy, will be abused by her unruly subordinates, it turns out that the recruit is plenty unhinged herself. Before long, Komari’s long-awaited break from work arrives, and she just so happens to spend it at a hot springs resort in Esther’s hometown. But unbeknownst to her, a sinister plot is steadily unfolding in this seemingly idyllic village...
