Draig sat across from Keiko as the people who had heard the admittance of falsehood began to take off any form of a.s.sociation with the Mugen Faction dropping them to the ground and leaving causing Keiko"s eyes to well up with tears. Ari grit her teeth but didn"t move due to the Talisman on her chest, Yuki however just sat at the side silently as she watched Draig deal with her Faction leader.
"You built a castle out of nothing and expected it to stand strong, that is the most foolish thing I have ever heard. Wait no, there is something else. I was told that I couldn"t resist joining the moment I laid eyes on you, tell me why was that necessary" asked Draig looking at Keiko who had went red in the face and seemed to be unwilling to answer.
"Well then, since you wish to be connected to me so intimately then let us connect. I have been so bored without a loyal pet by my side" chuckled Draig as three talismans flew from his sleeves and circled Keiko"s neck like a collar causing the girl"s eyes to widen.
"I"m not ready" thought Keiko as she a.s.sumed the worse of the situation, Ari wasn"t much better but Yuki seemed to be looking at the collar a bit too intently.
Draig smirked and began walking out of the room however after he got a certain distance Keiko felt a small jolt.
"Come my pet" called Draig with a laugh causing Keiko to scowl as she walked towards Draig causing him to raise a brow.
"That"s not how a pet walks" stated Draig causing Keiko to flush red in humiliation as she hesitantly lowered herself to all fours.
"Good Girl" chuckled Draig as he rubbed her head as if she was a dog.
Ari watched this and couldn"t believe Draig to be such a person but Yuki didn"t seem bothered by it at all, in fact if you looked closely one could see the faintest of smiles playing across her lips. The scene was something she found to be rather fitting as she had thought Keiko always seemed to be barking like a dog, if Ari and the others hadn"t joined with Keiko she would never have aligned with such a person.
Soon the group was walked through the Door of the Manor and the people"s eyes were drawn to Keiko on all fours following Draig, a series of murmurs began spreading among the crowed as many people blushed at the scene.
Keiko felt her face growing steadily warmer as she felt the eyes of the people in her faction on her, who was she kidding without Draig"s name she had no Faction.
"Who will want to align with me now" thought Keiko as she felt her embarra.s.sment becoming too much.
Draig however smirked when he saw the looks of shock on people"s faces before they looked to him in wonder.
"It seems that my time here has made me a bit more understanding to the simpleness of humans, act boldly and they will respect you more often than not. Act shyly and you will lose face" thought the Feratu as he continued walking with Keiko following closely lest she end up with another jolt from the Vampire.
"Tell me do you understand my humiliation now" whispered Draig just loud enough for Keiko to hear causing her to nod which made Draig laugh.
"I a.s.sure you that you don"t, I am strong for my level. I dare not say that I can beat anyone I face at the moment but for someone like you to have the audacity and shamelessness to ever insinuate I serve you in any shape or form. That is true humiliation, I will never serve someone beneath me but you are lucky, if I had been my old self I would have killed you and slaughtered everyone in your faction" continued Draig causing Keiko to pause for a second which gave Draig enough time to get the amount of distance to give her a jolt which caused her to speed up and return to a safe distance.
"Where are you taking me" asked Keiko as she had no choice but to follow.
"I have grown tired from today"s events so we will be returning to my dorm" answered Draig causing Keiko"s imagination to begin running wild again, she was seventeen though her looks made her seem younger but still she thought it was too soon for her to do those things.
"Don"t flatter yourself" stated Draig seemingly reading her mind causing the girl to cast a scathing look towards the Feratu.
"Don"t flatter myself, what do you mean by that. Have you no interest in beautiful women, you should be honored to have taken a girl like me hostage" thought Keiko as she sped up and rammed into Draig"s legs causing the Vampire some minor pain.
"What is your problem" grunted Draig behind the two Ari and Yuki followed, it was awkward for them to follow this odd scene but they were still Keiko"s guards.
Soon the group returned to the Unaffiliated Dorm E but it was weird because there didn"t seem to be anybody around, this caused Draig some concern but though maybe everyone had something to attend to. He wasn"t sure but it wasn"t his concern, as he walked up to the second floor where his room was Draig noticed there was a few blood stains on his Curtain.
"What the. . ." muttered Draig as he pulled it aside to see Ginji and Aoi inside, Aoi had a deep cut on her side and Ginji"s hand seemed heavily charred.
Looking at the two of them Draig seemed to understand that everyone in the Dorm wasn"t merely busy, acting quickly Draig pulled out the Thousand Fold Blade and channeled his Avatar as he seemed to gain a holy persona about him and divine light formed over Ginji"s hand before Draig repeated the process with Aoi though Draig looked extremely weakened after doing so.
"Holy element still doesn"t mix well" thought Draig ignoring the ache reverberating through his body.
