Kurome: "Dairoku...?"
Dairoku: "Hm?" He turned around, only for his eyes to widen when the Onyx-eyed girl lunged at him and...
*Smooch!*

The vampire king was shocked, confused and unsure of what to do, but what was stranger... is that he didn't pull away... After a short minute, Kurome broke the kiss and looked at him, blushing but smiling.

Kurome: "I'll see you next time. But you better not go easy on me again."
Dairoku: "Y-Yeah... You too."
(End of Flashback)
It was a day after the battle with the Jaegers. In total, one Teigu User lost their life, Bols from the Jaegers, but two Teigu were destroyed, Rubicante and Gaea Foundation. Since the battle, Night Raid was laid under the radar, taking time to recover from the battle. Dairoku was inside of the room he and Akame shared, the aforementioned girl pacing in front of him. He knew he couldn't keep what happened between him and Kurome a secret so he came clean.
Dairoku: "And... that's about it, yeah."
Akame: "...Kurome kissed you...?" He sighed and nodded.
Dairoku: "I wasn't expecting it... I knew you said she liked be but I never thought she'd be that bold. It... didn't feel right to me... It felt like I unintentionally betrayed you, even though you told me that you particularly wouldn't mind." The scarlet-eyed girl was silent and halted her pacing before she faced him.
Akame: "Answer this. What do you feel towards Kurome?"
Dairoku: "...When I fought her, I thought I had the resolve to end things right then and there... But when I had her on the ropes, I felt... sad... hesitant. When I met up with her when I saved Chelsea, I felt happy to see her again, but when she kissed me, I was... heavily conflicted... Part of me says, I shouldn't... but the other part of me doesn't want to see her more heart broken than she already is."
