Benetnasch is one of the legendary “Seven Heroes” and a vampire queen known as the “Vampire Princess,” regarded as the strongest of the Seven Heroes and their greatest problem child.
She rules the vampire empire Mjolnir, a land kept in eternal night by magic, and is infamous as the greatest mass killer in history.
Full Name: Benetnasch
Alias: Bene (a familiar nickname)
Race: Vampire (special, anomalous individual)
Titles:
Vampire Princess
One of the Seven Heroes
Queen of the Vampire Empire Mjolnir
Former “Strongest Human” (title held before Ruphas Mafahl’s rise)
Benetnasch has extremely high pride and views most beings, including other vampires, as lower life forms.
Despite this arrogance, she deeply respects and obsessively fixates on Ruphas Mafahl, the only person who ever truly overwhelmed her.
She is a massive sweet tooth and loves sugary foods, adding a quirky contrast to her brutal reputation.
Her mental strength is extraordinary, to the point that she can reject the interference of a goddess by sheer willpower alone.
Benetnasch is described as the strongest among the Seven Heroes and the one who causes the most trouble.
Unlike the others, she never joined the rebellion against Ruphas Mafahl and never fought Orm, the Demon King, so she never suffered any of the power loss they did.
She has even surpassed the conventional level cap, just like Ruphas Mafahl, and is now much stronger than she was 200 years ago.
Her raw combat ability is so overwhelming that she once single-handedly annihilated an invading army of demon species led by Orm.
Historically, before Ruphas Mafahl appeared, Benetnasch was recognized as the strongest “human-side” existence in the world.
Over her long life, she killed more monsters, demon species, and humans than anyone else in recorded history, more than ten times the number slain by Ruphas herself, making her the holder of the all-time highest kill record.
Benetnasch was born 600 years ago in Bleakingda Bell, a former vampire kingdom located on Eryuznir, one of the four continents of the world Midgards.
She was born as a low-ranking princess of that kingdom, but she was an anomalous individual from the start.
From birth, she possessed overwhelming power that rendered all other vampires, including the true ancestors, completely irrelevant in her eyes.
Because no one could stand on the same level as her, she spent her days in boredom, seeing even her own kin as nothing more than inferior creatures.
Her life changed when she met Ruphas Mafahl and suffered her first true defeat.
For the first time, she encountered someone undeniably above her, which shocked her and sparked both respect and intense affection.
Benetnasch then twisted this admiration into a very specific obsession:
“Ruphas Mafahl is mine to kill. The only one allowed to kill me is her.”
From that point on, she began to live for Ruphas’ existence, treating her as both her rival and her reason for living.
As she traveled with Ruphas and the other comrades, she realized there were many beings who could match or even surpass her, and for the first time since her birth, she experienced a truly fulfilling period in her life.
Through her journeys and battles with the others, Benetnasch grew far stronger than she had been at their first encounter.
Eventually, to fulfill the promise made after her first defeat, she challenged Ruphas Mafahl to a one-on-one duel.
During this rematch, she realized that even after all her growth, she still could not reach Ruphas’ level.
The two of them resolved to settle things with one final, decisive exchange of blows.
However, just as they were about to unleash their final strikes, the other six members of the Seven Heroes betrayed Ruphas.
Megrez used magic to freeze Ruphas’ movements for an instant, and Benetnasch’s all-out attack, which should never have reached, struck Ruphas directly.
This blow inflicted a grievous wound on Ruphas and left her unable to fully exert her power.
Benetnasch, having exhausted herself completely in that attack, was then restrained by magic, powerless to interfere.
She could only watch as the weakened Ruphas was killed by the six betrayers right before her eyes.
With her life’s purpose stolen from her in that moment, Benetnasch lost all interest in the world.
After Ruphas fell, Alioth regained his senses and begged Benetnasch to join him in fighting alongside Orm against the demon species.
However, Benetnasch was utterly disgusted and disappointed with the six betrayers and coldly refused, choosing instead to shut herself away.
She withdrew from the world and did not join any subsequent major conflicts.
Unlike the others, she never participated in the rebellion, never faced Orm, and therefore never suffered any weakening from these events.
Around fifty years after her withdrawal, Orm led an army of demon species to invade the vampire empire Mjolnir.
Benetnasch went out alone and completely obliterated the entire force by herself.
Then Orm, the Demon King, stood before her.
He told her that Ruphas Mafahl would return to this world in about 150 years.
Hearing this, Benetnasch’s long-lost motivation flared back to life.
Once again, she found a reason to live: to wait for Ruphas’ return and finally settle things properly in a battle of their own.
From that moment on, she continued to bide her time in Mjolnir, waiting eagerly for the day Ruphas would come back.
For Benetnasch, the world regained its color only because the possibility of Ruphas’ return existed.
Ruphas Mafahl
Ruphas Mafahl is both her greatest rival and the center of her obsession.
Benetnasch respects her deeply as the only being who ever truly crushed her and considers Ruphas the sole one worthy of killing her or being killed by her.
Her affection for Ruphas is twisted but sincere, mixing admiration, rivalry, and an almost romantic devotion.
Ruphas’ death at the hands of the other Six Heroes robbed Benetnasch of her purpose, and the hope of Ruphas’ return is what reawakened her will to act.
The Other Six Heroes
Benetnasch sees the other Six Heroes as complete disappointments after their betrayal of Ruphas.
She refused Alioth’s desperate plea for aid and chose isolation over cooperating with them in any way.
Her trust in them was shattered, and she holds them responsible not just for Ruphas’ fall, but for the meaningless disruption of her own long-awaited duel.
This betrayal permanently severed whatever camaraderie she may have once shared with them.
Orm
Benetnasch never fought alongside Orm, but she did confront him when he invaded Mjolnir with his demon species army.
She annihilated his forces alone, demonstrating her overwhelming strength.
Orm, instead of simply clashing with her to the end, delivered crucial information: that Ruphas Mafahl would return in about 150 years.
In a strange way, this turned Orm into the messenger who revived her will to live and fight again.
Benetnasch stands out as a brutal yet strangely romantic figure: a massacre record-holder who lives for one woman and one battle.
Her pride is absolute, her power is monstrous, and yet her entire emotional world orbits around Ruphas Mafahl.
Her story is filled with extremes: born as an unmatched monster, bored with the world, awakened by defeat, betrayed at the peak of fulfillment, and then reanimated by the promise of a future rematch.
She is the embodiment of destructive power anchored by a single, all-consuming obsession.
