Keith: Yes. (looking at the window) Trust me I know you and Sabrina can protect her but I don't want the Shadow King to find the vampire realm.
Yurei: I'll inform her at once.
Keith (in his mind): Make sure to be careful coming here next time.
Yurei (in Keith's mind while disappearing): Don't worry Lord Keith I will.
Keith (turned around right in front of the window after sighing): I need to find a way to get out of here but it might be impossible because I can't use magic. (after noticing his shadow eyes when he felt something) I might have found a way.
(vampire realm living room)
Anna (sitting on a sofa holding a closed book while Sabrina stands near her): So we were right about the Shadow King plan.
Sabrina: And now you became a target. I think it's dangerous to go to Renji base because they would be attacked but at the same time I think that's the only safe place.
Anna (look at Sabrina): When can I leave?
Sabrina: If I'm right it's almost sunset so...
Anna (interrupting while standing): Perfect. (walking to the door after putting her book on the sofa) I'm going to get ready quickly.
Yurei (look at the book): What was Lady Anna reading?
Sabrina: She was researching how to strategies in a war. Anna has a feeling Yukimaru will ask her to make a plan.
Yurei: I see. Well, I should head back.
Sabrina: Alright.
(Anna's room bathroom)
Anna (in her mind while in the shower): I feel like I can't do anything to help Keith but I did ask Yurei to ask him what I should do. (turn the shower off after sighing) I should try to learn more and get stronger however I wonder when I get my next vision.
While putting her towel on after leaving the shower she suddenly grab her throat holding her other hand on the sink before seeing her eyes red from the mirror. After letting go of her throat Anna summoned a blood container and immediately drank it.
Anna (in her mind while seeing her eyes return to normal): The blood still tastes the same. (leaving the bathroom while the empty blood container disappears) I only have three left. Hopefully, I can last until Keith returns.
(four days later human realm desert land Renji base gate)
Soldier one (standing near soldier two seeing someone in a cloak walking towards them): Hey you stop.
Person (in front of the two soldiers): Oh sorry for looking suspicious but you should have known I was coming.
Soldier two (after the person removes their hood): Sorry but who are you?
Anna (person (wearing her desert outfit)): My name is Lieutenant Anna.
Soldier two (saluting after noticing): Forgive us, mam. This is our first time meeting so we didn't know what you look like because the captain only told us your name.
Anna: It's alright.
Soldier one (while the gate opens): We'll let the captain know so please wait inside near the entrance.
Anna (while walking in): Thank you.
(inside building)
Sabrina (in Anna's mind while she remove her cloak): I thought the base would be a bit further from the nearby village.
Anna (in her mind): Same here.
Renji (walking towards Anna from a distance): Did I keep you waiting long?
Anna (look at Renji while her cloak disappears): You haven't.
Renji (turns a bit before walking with Anna): Let's talk while having a cold drink.
(Renji office)
Renji (puts a cup on the table in front of Anna): Here's an iced tea.
Anna (sitting on the sofa while Renji goes to the opposite sofa): I never tried iced tea. (after taking a sip) Tasty.
Renji: In this weather, it's best to have a cold drink.
Anna: I can't wait for Keith to try it.
Renji (when Anna notices): Yurei told us what happened.
Anna (putting the cup down): I had a feeling.
Renji: Is it safe for you to be here?
Anna: Keith said I should be here since I'm the Shadow King target.
Renji: We almost have things ready for the war.
Anna: Then can I help?
Renji: Sure.
Anna: Also can I borrow your library?
Renji: What are you studying for?
Anna: I'm learning how to plan a war since I have a feeling Yukimaru is going to leave everything to me.
Renji: If you want I can teach you a few things so you can fuse your ideas with information from your studies.
Anna: You sure you're not too busy?
Renji: For now I can leave everything to the lieutenants.
Anna (while Renji stands): Please don't fry my brain.
Renji (while Anna stands): Don't worry I'll take your lessons slow and simple so you can understand different situations.
Anna (following Renji): Thank you.
(hallway)
Anna (after leaving the room): So have Yukimaru decided where we'll all meet for the war?
Renji (walking with Anna): He's been having meetings with the major about our situation. However, he has been giving us updates and so far it's going well.
Anna: That's good
Renji: So do you want to start your lessons now?
Anna: Yes, please.
Renji (walking down the right hallway): The library this way.
(right hallway)
Sabrina (in Anna's mind): You should rest from the heat.
Anna (in her mind): I feel refreshed from that iced tea. I think Renji knew I looked tired.
Sabrina: I'll be leaving you for now to help Yurei.
Anna: Alright. Stay safe.
