In a modern world secretly ruled by vampire clans, blood is not food - it is the key that unlocks and consumes human memories. The oldest clans hoard centuries of stolen knowledge, manipulating global governments, banks, and universities like puppets. When Chen Jang Woo, a cold and calculated strategist, is reincarnated into this shadow society, he inherits a broken lineage and a powerful cheat: the Vampire Clan Creation System. To survive, he must forcibly recruit members and build an empire from scratch. But Jang Woo is driven by a deep psychological trauma - the agonizing memory of his past-life betrayal, leaving him with an obsessive, paranoid need to control everyone around him. As he systemically strip-mines his enemies' memories to fuel his rise, Jang Woo must navigate a deadly web of global conspiracies. If he cannot learn to trust his new harem of loyal subordinates, his own crippling paranoia will destroy the empire he is desperately trying to build.
