Roused by Zero’s hand on her head Hikaru awakened and smiled when she saw him. She sleepily said, “Hi what are you doing here?”
“I came to see you sleepy head.” said Zero as he still patted her head.
Hikaru lightly pushed away Zero’s hand and asked, “Why? Is anything wrong?”
Zero chuckled and said, “You make it sound like I only show up when something goes wrong.”
Hikaru said nothing and stared at Zero causing him to say, “Well things do tend to go wrong but that has nothing to do with me. Anyways I came here to inform you that Julius is back and I need to meet with you, Hammer, and him in 2 days. I met up with Julius and already informed him so I came up to let you know.”
Hikaru nodded and said, “Okay” but then with a confused looked scanned the room before asking, “Did Alucard already leave?”
It was then the realization hit Zero that he left him passed out on the floor stuck in the doorway. He then walked to the doorway, grabbed Alucard by his shirt collar, and tossed him on the bed.
Hikaru looked at the scene and asked, “What happened to him?”
“He tried to keep me out of the room so I knocked him out.” answered Zero not holding back any information.
Hikaru looked towards the unconscious Alucard and sighed. She then turned back to face Zero and said, “I’m sorry for his behavior.”
“I’m curious how on earth did you 2 get together? You don’t seem to mix that well in my opinion.” asked Zero
Hikaru narrated a story of how Alucard had tried to court her repeatedly. It began after the battle with Sophia. Since Alucard hadn’t taken too much damage he only needed an hour to recover and when he went to the cafeteria he ended up sitting and sharing a meal with Hikaru. Hikaru saw nothing wrong with the situation so she allowed it and they ended up talking. Hikaru was fascinated by Alucard’s stories of his time as a Dhampir so whenever they met they ended up chatting. As time went on he seemed to have developed feelings for Hikaru and asked to formally court her. Hikaru due to her father’s abuse had chosen to avoid men and relationships so she had no dating experience so when given a grand and formal proposition she unwittingly agreed and Alucard then began to formally courting her.

“Wait so you’re not actually dating yet?” asked Zero
“No, we’re not. I don’t even know if I want to date yet but he seemed like a nice guy so I decided to give him a chance to move my heart. He had 2 months and now we’re in the last 2 weeks so he’s putting in more effort and won’t leave my side.” explained Hikaru
Zero laughed and said, “Well from the look of it he won’t succeed. Moving on how are you adjusting to your new body?”
“Its still a bit difficult to control my strength and speed. As for magic Mina and I learn from Yoko whenever she has some free time. I’ve only had 1 lesson so I’m behind, but Mina’s helping explain some things to me.” said Hikaru
Zero looked at Hikaru’s side and saw a mound of broken pens and torn papers. He chuckled as he pulled a ring out of a small dimensional opening. He walked over and place the ring on her finger causing Hikaru to smile and ask, “Are you proposing to me?”
The ring shifted shaped and form a black ring with a violet amethyst stone in the shape of a hydrangea flower.
“Jokes aside this ring will help you control your power until you can do so on your own. I have things to finish up so I’ll leave now.” said Zero as he walked out of the room.
After Zero left Hikaru smiled and said, “I wouldn't mind if you really did propose though.”
Zero went to Hikaru’s room and knocked. The door opened and the unnamed werewolf girl opened the door. Zero then said, “Hey can I come in?”
The werewolf girl nodded and stepped to the side allowing Zero to enter the room. Zero sat down and motioned for the girl to also sit. Zero then started talking and asked, “So what’s your name?”
“My name is Yui.” said the girl
“Hmm from what I remember from class and reading your name means alone. I guess that makes you a lone wolf.” joked Zero trying to alleviate the girl’s tension.
“Please don’t say that. I used to be teased in my younger days with that saying.” said Yui
An awkward silence encompassed the room and neither of the 2 spoke. Zero was the first to break the silence and apologized to Yui. Yui accepted and asked Zero why he was here. Zero no longer joked around and spoke seriously.
“As I stated previously in resurrecting you I created a new species and I’d like to borrow your help to make it grow. You have the ability to transform humans into werewolves by either a scratch or bite, sharing your blood, and through intercourse. I simply want you to share your blood with a few humans.” answered Zero
“Wait hold up did you just say intercourse?” asked Yui
“Yes, I did. I gave your body the ability to do that as a courtesy since I plan to have you help me. With this ability, you can change whoever you love and share the same lifespan. Those turned through a scratch, bite, or blood will be weaker than you are but the person you have intercourse with will gain the same level of power as you. Unfortunately, it will only work once so be careful with your choice.” explained Zero
Yui was silent as she took in all of Zero’s words before asking, “Why can I only do it once?”
“Well, you can only be a virigin once. I think the rest is self-explanatory so I’ll end it at that.” said Zero with a straight face
