Dance in the Vampire Bund: Age of Scarlet Order Vol. 20

FANGS AND FURY

The assault on the vampire god’s lair has begun! Mina, Akira, and an elite team of Gevaudans blast their way into the cavern stronghold while Leroy and Heinrich lead a fierce offensive outside, locking the enemy’s forces in a battle that shakes the very earth itself. As the fighting intensifies, Mina finally closes in on the vampire god—but something isn’t right. In the heart of the stronghold, an unexpected development threatens to upend everything.

Meanwhile, Phoebe, Yuuhi, and the wolf boys infiltrate a beached battleship in a daring mission to recover their missing comrades. But what awaits them inside is far more dangerous than they imagined. As past and present collide, the war against the vampire god erupts on multiple fronts—and the final battle takes a dark and unpredictable turn.
