In fantasy novels and folklore, the ancestor of Western vampires was considered to be Cain. The origin of this legend can be traced back to a character in ancient Greek mythology named Achilles (Ares), who was considered a warrior and hunter. It was said that he had once hunted a wolf and preserved its head before burying it under his tree. As time passed, the wolf's descendant became a vampire, and his name was Cain. According to legend, Cain first obtained the ability of a vampire from Cain's tree and became the first vampire hunter. Because Cain once hunted vampires, he was considered an important figure in Western vampire culture. In fantasy novels and folklore, many characters could obtain special abilities through mysterious powers. Cain was believed to be an ancestor with vampire abilities, so he became a representative figure in Western vampire culture.
