Yūichirō and his companions arrive at Shinjuku to help repel the vampire offensive, while Guren's party spots Mikaela and Ferid, and decides to face them.

Shinoa spars against Guren before visiting Yu in the library. She tells him about turning humans into vampires. Then, Kureto Hiragi summons Yu to ask him about a vampire spy while torturing Kimizuki and Yoichi to make him tell the truth. Afterward, Yu asks Guren about it and asks if Mika would also be useful to him. In Sanguinem, Mika starves for blood and Ferid recommends halting his growth there. A child offers his blood to Ferid, and Ferid tempts Mika to drink the boy's blood but Mika refuses. Ferid then invites Mika to the Progenitor Council meeting.
