-Back in the school, Vlad along with the girls were hanging out together during lunch as Vigne was talking to Vlad while Gabriel and Satania watched the two as they were eating their meals as they were all in the cafeteria-

Vigne: So you cook at home? Even in the palace in the Dark Zone?

Vlad: Yes, though sometimes my Succubi would offer to cook for me but I'd rather have my food made with my own hands.

Vigne: Ah I get you! I sometimes prefer to eat my own cooking than have others offer to cook for you unless they're from a restaurant or something.

Vlad: Indeed, which is why I rarely have people cook for me.

Vigne: So you're like a hardworking prince! That's so sweet!

Satania: Kiss-ass.. -She mumbled to herself softly as she ate her ramen and looked away as Raphiel heard what Satania said and pretended not to hear anything as she listened to the other three-

Vlad: Ah..Please don't call me Prince, I don't really like- -His eyes widened as he looked behind Vigne as he was sitting beside her and saw a large black shadow behind her as there was a large window behind Vigne-

Gabriel:...V-Vlad..W-What is that thing..? -She asked in a worried tone as she saw what Vlad saw as Satania and Raphiel saw the same thing but the Humans around them were unable to see the large black shadow behind Vigne that was on the window-

Vigne: Hmm? What is it?

Gabriel: Vigne! Don't move..

Vigne: Jeez, Gabriel. What's up?

Vlad: Vignette. Do you not feel a heavy presence..?

Vigne: No..Why? Y-You guys are starting to scare me.. W-What is it?

Satania: Vigne! Don't move or look back! J-Just don't..

Vigne: Even you, Satania? Jeez~ You guys are just pulling pranks on me...? -She said as she then noticed the frightened look on Raphiel as Vigne's eyes widened at the sight of Raphiel's frightened look as she then realised that the the four were not lying or joking with her as Vigne began to worry- W-What's behind me..?

Gabriel: Something big..

Satania: It's really scary looking..

Vigne: V-Vlad-kun..?

Vlad: A dragon..

Vigne: A dragon?! -She said in a loud tone and as she did, the large glass window behind her would shatter loudly as the shadow disappeared and formed into a large blue dragon with skeletal-like armour on as the beast's eyes glowed brightly as it growled at the five students and with its appearance, the students panicked upon sight of the dragon as the students ran and escaped in fear- Ahh! W-What is that thing?!

Satania: A lizard!

Gabriel: A lizardman?

Vlad: Shiranui..

Gabriel: Shiranui?! Your old friend?!

Vigne: Eh?! Vlad-kun's old friend?!

Shiranui: I finally found you, Scharhrot. -The beast said in a monstrous tone as it stared at Vlad for a moment-

Vlad: Why are you here?

Shiranui: To bring you back to our world. To defeat Dragonic Overlord and dominate the rest of Cray!

Vlad: No! I am not going to return back to Cray!

Shiranui:...Why?

Vlad: Why must I live in a world filled with so much fighting? Why can't I live in a world with peace and without having the need to absorb mana from those who are much weaker than I am?

Shiranui: You are not suited to live in such a pitiful world, my friend! The members of Shiranui of Nubatama are waiting for you, your servants and disciples of Darkness are also waiting for your return!

Vlad: Nothing good happens if I were to return back to that world.

Shiranui: Then are you going to let your servants suffer as they fight against the Kagero clan?

Vlad: What?

Shiranui: Dragonic Blademaster is taking charge of the front-line assault towards the Dark Zone and powerful dragons will be assisting him.

Vlad: Like who?

Shiranui: The legions of the Perdition Army, Mustafa, Vortex Dragon, Blazing Burst, the all powerful Route Flare and Ziegenburg.

Vlad: Ziegenburg..

Shiranui: Now that you know he is heading towards the Dark Zone, will you at least fight back with me?

Vlad: No..I'll leave Ziegenburg to Amon or Reijy, they're powerful enough to handle him.

Shiranui: No they are not! Amon's Followers are powerful but that cannot stand up against the mighty flame dragons! The Blade Wing cultists prefer to hide in the shadows and wait to see who wins the war!

Vlad: Let Gastille handle them then!

Shiranui: Gastille will not side with anyone but himself! Scharhrot. Vanquisher and I are volunteering to help the Dark Zone fight against the Flame Dragons but we would still need your help!

Vlad: Vanquisher? Why is he helping?

Shiranui: The powerful Monk of Thunder believes that there should be peace between the Dark Zone and the Dragon Empire.

Vlad: What good will it be by fighting against the most powerful clan?!

Shiranui: We could always call Maelstrom for help.

Vlad: Maelstrom?! The one who nearly destroyed the whole planet before?! Never suggest that! That Sea Dragon should not be mentioned in my realm! -His sleeve was then pulled lightly as he turned back and saw that the girls were all hiding behind him- You girls..

Gabriel: Are you going to leave?

Vlad: I..

Satania: No! Don't go! Stay here! You'll be more happier here! There are a lot of fun things to do here too!

Raphiel: Satania-san..

Vlad: But my people..

Shiranui: Scharhrot, you must hurry and make your choice.

Vlad:..No, I cannot go.

Shiranui: What?!

Vlad: I must protect this world from whatever comes by.

Shiranui: But what about your clan?! Your castle?!

Vlad: I want you to protect it for me.

Shiranui: Me?! But the Shiranui clan of Nubatama stands no chance against the Kagero clan!

Vlad: I'll let you call upon my few most strongest warriors to assist you.

Shiranui: Your strongest warriors?

Vlad: Summon Gilles de Rais, Frederick, Rutland Betray, Ericrius, Bledermaus, Balaam and Lujairus. They will assist you.

Shiranui: Then you'll stay here?

Vlad: Someone needs to protect these girls from harm.

Shiranui: If there's anything that shows up here.

Vlad: Better safe than sorry, old friend.

Shiranui: -The Dragon sighed as his body then glowed and transformed into a tall Human male with long silver hair with blue outlines as his gold eyes stared at Vlad- Fine, but if we win the war, you will be coming back with me.

Vlad: I will. I promise.

Shiranui: Have you decided as well?

Vlad: Decide what?

Shiranui: Which one of these girls will be your mate?

Vlad: Huh? -After hearing what Shiranui said, Gabriel, Vigne and Satania blushed as they hid their faces behind his back- You are just being ridiculous.

Shiranui: Vampires gotta eat too, you know? Heh. -He said as he smirked as a black portal appeared behind him as a black armoured dragon walked out of the portal and stood next to the entrance of the portal as Shiranui looked back at the dragon- Noroi, status report.

Noroi: Ziegenburg has disappeared from the army but they are still on the move, Vanquisher's forces are trying to slow the army down with traps but the flame dragons are not afraid of death.

Shiranui: Then we'll show them the power of our Evil Eye! -Shiranui said as he stood in front of the portal and looked back at Vlad- Do take care of yourself, Scharhrot. If Ziegen ever finds his way here to get to you, you would have to avenge your comrades by killing him.

Vlad: I know.. -He said as he watched Shiranui walked into the portal as the portal vanished-

-The four girls were utterly speechless after watching Shiranui leave the cafeteria room as the girls would look at Vlad who had a worried look on his face as he was thinking to himself-

"A mate, huh?"
