***Banmaden Garden***
Kazz's first part of the plan was complete: Get the attention of the Tsukinami Brothers.
【Great job Host! Host acting skills are top notch! The dramatic disappearance was so cool!】
Yeah? Thanks.
Kazz used his small replenished power to teleport to the garden. It would probably take about a week for his powers to fully return to its prime state.
Moments later, Kazz's ears perked, he stopped strolling and hurriedly hid behind a bush when he recognized his voice.
"Thank you, Karlheinz." The Queen of Founders smiled at the King of Vampires.
"No, it's my pleasure, Krone."
The Queen left, leaving Karlheinz standing alone in the dark. Even without the moonlight, Kazz was sure Krone was that woman who was talking to 'Ferid' a while ago. This tiny information was enough to prove his hypothesis. 'Krone hasn't made an anime or game appearance yet...If I have known the woman was her, I would've paid attention to their conversation! Shoot!'
Sure enough, Karlheinz changed his appearance to 'Ferid' in a blink of an eye. Kazz thought to himself: 'He probably wanted his deal with Krone to be a secret; that's why he shapeshifted, to be undercover...'
'Ferid' vanished in front of him. When Kazz was about to sigh in relief, a pair of arms grabbed his waist and carried him like before. "Krul, did you actually think I didn't notice you?"
Kazz panicked but soon calmed down. "No, of course not," Kazz thought of Laito on the roof scene with Yui. 'You can't escape from a vampire's ear.'
"What should I do with you? I can't let you go now..." With Ferid's face, Karlheinz looked deeply at Kazz's eyes. "...You will be staying with me."
***Vampire King's Castle***
Kazz was smiling happily as he skips towards the dining room for breakfast.
【Host shouldn't you be sad, afraid or depressed that you're being kept captive? 】
Kazz doesn't feel any of those negative emotions at all! It's very simple:
1) Free food/blood.
2) Free bed.
3) Free 'husband.'
Besides, being close to Karlheinz will give Kazz benefits when completing his plans: He can have contact with the research of the disease and the Tsukinami brothers can easily find him! It's a win-win situation! Kazz was very satisfied!
Sitting on the right of Karlheinz (original appearance), Kazz ate the waffles with a grin on his face. The Vampire King, who was drinking blood from a wine cup was confused, but he still enjoyed the sight. The dining room was filled with comfortable silence until a stuttering voice ruined it...
"Y-your Majesty, King Giesbach's children are here for a visit. They were looking for a "Krul Tepes." The brave soldier stated as he looked over at Kazz direction.
"Oh?" Karlheinz also looked at Kazz, "Did you made friends during the ball yesterday?"
Kazz nodded his head, "I did!"
"Good," Karlheinz patted Kazz's head, "Bring them in."
"Yes, your majesty!" The soldier left.
