Setsuna was trying with her daggers on a few test dummies that Itsuka had lying around, Awase was also training with his double-headed spear, Hitoshi was cutting dummies left and right with such speed it amazed her and Awase. Meanwhile, Itsuka was practicing magic. Each was training for the sports festival as well as just training to fight other monsters.

Setsuna stopped and took a breather. She sat down on the ground and grabbed her water bottle and drank as much as she felt like she needed. She looked to her daggers and her thoughts went to Lagatha and Izuku. She wondered what they've been doing this week since the shop was supposedly closed for renovations and Izuku himself was never really seen outside of school anymore

"Hey Itsuka, Hitoshi?" She called out

"Yeah?" Hitoshi asked

"Do you guys know what's going on with Lagatha and Izuku?" Setsuna asked

"I've actually been wondering that myself" Awase chimed in "I mean, we barely see him anymore"

Hitoshi sighed and looked to Itsuka and she sighed

"To be honest, we kind of know what's going on but we're still in the dark about a couple of details," Hitoshi told them

"Like?" Setsuna asked

"Well, from what we've been told... The 4 tribe leaders from each subspecies if Vampires have come to Japan to meet the new king, which in this case is Izuku" Hitoshi said

Itsuka nodded, "What's worse is that most of them don't want a king and want to continue doing things their way, which for some mean just going wild, but I'm sure Izuku doesn't want that and all we know is that a meeting is suppose to happen soon"

"What happens if they accept him as their king?" Setsuna asked

"Then they follow his lead and his orders and also lays down some laws" Hitoshi replied

"And if they don't accept him?" She asked

"Who knows, but right now, with Izuku's new power, I don't think they could take him on," Hitoshi said

Setsuna thought about it. Sure, whatever new powers Izuku had they were strong, but did he truly know how to control them, or was that just a bit of a spur of the moment thing?

All she could do now was hope that Izuku and Lagatha could handle what was going on. Still, ever since he killed Adrian, she worried about him, she could feel that something about him was changing ever since that day, and she couldn't tell if that was for the best or if it was for the worst.

Currently, Izuku was with Lagatha, Pakura, and Renji in an abandoned building that was far out in the country.

Izuku looked to Lagatha, "you still haven't told me what this is all about" he told her

"What we are doing here is part of your training, due to you now being proclaimed King, your powers have also grown and it's time to see what they are and how they can be used," Lagatha said "Pakura came up with an Idea that I agreed with"

"So far, you've only fought other vampires, but now you'll fight a Werewolf," Pakura said and looked to Renji "Do it," She said

Renji nodded and he began to transform and his body began to grow fur and his teeth slowly turned into sharp points, his face slowly morphed into that of a wolf, his hands elongated and his nails became as sharp as a blade. Renji's fur was a mix of his original hair color and he looked at Izuku and Izuku looked back.
