Tsukune aimlessly stared at the blackboard in front of him and listened to Shizuka, their teacher who couldn’t seem to disguise her cat ears, who talked about human society.

Without a troublemaker like Saizou hanging around, the students in this class were able to listen to Shizuka’s lessons without any difficulty.

“For example, unlike many monster subspecies, humans are very social creatures. In fact, many of our kin are only able to eat humans when they are isolated from other humans.”

Despite resolving himself to stay with Moka, Tsukune still couldn’t help but feel terrified.

This isn’t needed to live in human society but why is it being taught!!

He then feels something poke his back.

Looking back, he sees Moka poking him with the eraser side of a pencil, giving him a reassuring smile.

She mouths.

It’s okay. I’m here.

Tsukune smiles and turns back to listen to Shizuka.

I’ll be okay. No one knows.

But as the class continued, Tsukune couldn’t help but feel like he was being stared at. Looking around, he didn’t notice anyone staring at him but the feeling never disappeared.

Eventually, the class finishes with an immensely exhausted Tsukune exiting the room.

“Hey, he’s the reason why Saizou isn’t attending class anymore, right?”

“I heard that he broke all of his bones.”

“I heard that Saizou’s heart exploded.”

“Whoa, isn’t that murder? Isn’t that like illegal according to human laws?”

“Yeah, but we’re not humans aren’t we?”

“But… doesn’t he look too average to be a vampire?”

Even if he didn’t have supernatural hearing, Tsukune could hear enough.

Me, a vampire?!

Tsukune’s quickly reminded of his fears yesterday and couldn’t help but panic.

Fortunately, Moka was just right behind him. She pokes him on the side once more, causing him to almost scream.

“Moka!” He says turning toward her.

“Heyyyy Tsukune. I hope you weren’t too bothered by the lecture earlier.” Her cute worried face seems to erase all of Tsukune’s worries. “We still have some time before our next class, do you want to go somewhere private and eat our lunch?” She then raises a small container that Tsukune recognized as a lunch box.

A lunch box!

Tsukune almost immediately said yes but quickly remembered Moka’s attitude for the past few days.

“M-Moka… just to ask… that lunch box is for you, right?”

Moka blushes a bit.

“Actually, I made it for you.”

Tsukune’s heart skips a beat.

“O-okay… let’s go eat lunch then?”

Moka smiles and the two then look for a private spot around the academy. In the first few days, it was quite difficult to find some alone time because many teenage boys and girls wanted to get acquainted with Moka. There were even rumors of another vampire student wanting to be close to Moka.

She’s just too perfect.

But for some reason, Moka always went back to Tsukune.

For someone who wants to have friends… I wonder why she’s not befriending others too…

Tsukune looked at the fully content Moka beside him as they walked toward an area with not many students.

Well, I’ll ask her later…

Eventually, the two of them manage to find a secluded area. Taking a seat, the two of them start to eat.

Stolen story; please report.

It was only now did Tsukune realised that Moka only prepared one lunch box.

“Moka, just to ask… are we sharing this lunch box?”

Moka shakes her head.

“This is all for you…”

Tsukune is confused but all of that immediately disappears when he sees Moka holding up a cut piece of well-cooked meat with a chopstick.

“Please eat up.”

In any normal situation, no man could deny it if a beautiful woman they knew wanted to feed them. It was especially even more applicable in Tsukune’s case.

“U-uh, thank you for the food!”

Tsukune then accepts Moka’s offering with grace.

Delicious!

Tsukune couldn’t help but praise Moka’s cooking. Even the most basic pieces of fried food were good.

Eventually, Tsukune finishes the entire lunchbox, completely satisfied.

He then sees Moka looking at him intently.

“Did you enjoy it?”

Tsukune nods, happy.

“Well umm…”

“What's the problem Moka?”

Moka smiles while looking very red.

“W-well… I still haven't eaten.”

Tsukune’s satisfaction is quickly blown away.

“W-what?! I thought you already ate?”

Moka shakes her head.

“I brought that for you?”

Tsukune shakes his head as well.

“You should've eaten that meal first. Let me get something for you then.”

Tsukune felt unbearably guilty. He didn’t want to enjoy a meal if it meant that Moka went hungry.

“C-can you help me get full then?”

“Of course!” Tsukune replied, prepared to run to the cafeteria for Moka.

But before he can stand up, he finds himself stuck in Moka’s embrace.

“U-uh, Moka?”

Her supernatural strength prevented him from pulling away. She’s looking at him with a glazed look.

No… She’s looking at… my neck?!

“I’ve been looking for another certain type of food lately…”

Tsukune realized late what Moka meant by she hadn’t eaten yet.

“M-Moka, I-”

Moka cuts him off with a cute voice.

“Didn’t you enjoy my meal?”

Hearing that, Tsukune is momentarily stunned.

Moka didn’t hesitate. She gently bites Tsukune’s neck, sucking his precious human blood.

Ah… I shouldn’t forget… to ask her…

Eventually, Moka finishes her meal and she heaves an immensely satisfied sigh of relief.

“Ah, Tsukune’s blood is truly the best!”

Tsukune lies down on the ground, feeling weak from Moka’s feeding.

“Thank you Tsukune.”

Tsukune gives Moka a thumbs up.

“N-no problem…” He replies weakly.

“Let’s go back to class then?” Moka says with a skip in her step.

“W-wait… Moka… I… have to ask…”

Unfortunately, Tsukune’s weak voice couldn’t get Moka’s attention, who was already walking back toward the more crowded areas of the school.

Eventually, the two of them return to class.

This next class talked about basic human mannerisms and how to imitate them.

After exploring the school with Moka for the past few days, Tsukune knew that the academy had a relatively long history, which meant that there were hundreds if not thousands of disguised monsters in human society.

That terrified Tsukune but he tried to reign in his fear. After spending almost a week with Moka and getting to know some of his less envious classmates, Tsukune realized that these so-called monsters were similar to humans.

They had desires, needs, and wants. Excluding a few completely hostile monsters, Tsukune could imagine interacting with these monsters in everyday life.

Not Saizou though…

Tsukune focuses on the class but his mind wanders back to his original worry.

I still haven’t asked Moka if I’m becoming a vampire or not.

“Tsukune?”

But what if I am becoming a vampire?? That’s scary to think about…

“Tsukune??”

I don’t want to be a monster…

“Tsukune!”

Shizuka’s loud shout snaps Tsukune out of his reverie.

“Y-yes ma’am?”

Shizuka taps her arms and smiles at Tsukune.

Terrifying.

“Try not to daydream too much during my class, okay?”

Tsukune nods.

“Yes ma’am!”

Today’s classes ended up as per usual. Once they were finally dismissed, Tsukune waited for Moka to finish packing up her books and notes.

Once she gets to Tsukune, she whispers.

“You don’t have to listen to these classes right Tsukune?”

Tsukuen looked around to see if anyone was listening. After making sure that they’re in the clear, he responds to Moka.

“Yeah. I don’t really need to.”

Moka nods.

“Are all the things they say about humans accurate?”

Tsukune thinks, holding his chin.

“Well, most of it yeah..”

The two of them walk out of the classroom hallway, unaware of the many envious eyes. At first, Tsukune noticed all of them but after days of being glared at, he had no choice but to ignore them.

“Sooo, what are we going to do today?”

Moka asks with a cute smile.

“Well… hmmm…” Tsukune thinks again.

Maybe we should visit the other lower-level schools? Just to see? Wait! I just remembered I have to ask Moka about me being a vampire.

“Why don’t we just hang out today? We’ve been exploring the whole academy for the entire week. Maybe we just take it slow today.”

Moka looks up as if thinking of something.

She’s so cute…

“Okay!”

Moka’s agreement causes Tsukune to have an internal celebration.

“Well, if we’re just hanging out, I want to do it on the rooftop!”

“Oh? Why the rooftop?”

Moka walks ahead.

“I just want to see the entire academy! Let’s go!”

Moka then pulls both of Tsukune’s hands.

“Let’s go before it gets dark!”

Tsukune smiles and lets himself get dragged up to the rooftop.

Once they’re both at the top of the academy, they both find a place to sit so they can relax.

“Moka… now that we’re alone, I actually have a question.”

Moka turns to Tsukune and sees his slightly worried face. Her mind immediately turns to his attempt to leave the school.

Oh no, is he thinking of leaving again??

Moka couldn’t help but feel anxious as well.

“Well… how do I say this?...”

“Don’t leave!”

Moka’s sudden shout surprises Tsukune.

“I uh… what?!”

“Please don’t leave. Is there someone trying to hurt you again? I… I can help. We just need to remove the rosary again!”

Tsukune couldn’t help but feel pity when he saw Moka’s worried face.

“No no no, I’m not leaving.”

Hearing that, Moka leans forward to cover her face in embarrassment.

“You’re not leaving?”

Tsukune shakes his head.

“No, I just wanted to ask a personal question. Also, I don’t think we should remove the rosary carelessly. We wouldn’t want to anger the other you.”

Moka nods, remembering how her inner self acted. She then takes a deep breath and quickly calms down.

“Okay. What did you want to ask?”

Seeing that Moka has calmed down, Tsukune does his best to calm down as well.

“Well, I wanted to ask you earlier because you’ve bitten me a lot of times now… but am I a vampire?”
