Shinoa is granted access to see Guren in the underground laboratory. She confronts him about the curse stimulant pills given to Yuichiro, who has been in a comatose state for five days. Guren advises Shinoa to wait by Yuichiro at his hospital bed if she truly does care for him. Meanwhile, Mikaela contemplates his identity as a vampire and a human, while Lacus and René notice his past association with Yuichiro. On the seventh day, Yuichiro finally wakes up and Yoichi notifies the others. Shinoa tells Yuichiro that Mikaela retreated with the vampire nobles in response to an attack led by Kureto Hiragi and Shinya Hiragi of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army. Once the rest of his friends gather in the hospital room, Yūichirō thanks them and apologizes for sleeping so long. Both Yuichiro and Mikaela make a silent vow that they will save each other. Guren writes a letter to an unknown recipient, and Ferid gives research data to an unseen client.
