Dan had emerged out of nowhere! Apparently, he used his Illusion Magic to stealthily sneak behind everyone's back, not even Frank, who was relaxed, was able to discern him! his power over illusions was already at almost the level of a god, it would take Frank's full power to see through it with his powerful Starlight Eyes.

He had acted friendly as he seems to have been spying on them, he thought they would be badmouthing the people, but in fact Frank was merely curious and disliked offending people unless they were his enemies and had really pissed him off.

"Clementine seems to have a plan in mind, and I believe it might be something more than what you think…" said Dan. He suddenly emerged behind Kuro out of thin air, he had been sneaking using illusion magic all this time.

"Eh? You're here?!" asked Frank.

"You!" said Orb.

"Well hello there, friends. I have been spying on you for a bit, but I see that you're all gentlemen that don't talk bad in the back of others… I've judged you enough and I believe you're worthy of my friendship, that includes you, little Orb." Said Dan.

"I don't want a friend like you." Said Orb while pouting.

"T-That's harsh!" cried Dan.

Orb quickly cut him off, but Frank intended to do so too, he wouldn't let a man just act friendly with his girl without knowing he had no weird intentions behind it.

"Okay, calm down Orb. Dan, why were you just spying on us? Don't you consider that as rather rude?" asked Frank with a bright smile, although he seemed to only grow angered, scaring Dan a bit.

"A-Ahaha! Come on, I was just playing around, that's what we do around here. Everyone's used to me." Said Dan.

"Yeah, we have to admit it." said Kuro.

"I dislike Dan as well." Said Julia.

"Geez… Tough crowd today…" sighed Dan, averting his gaze from the group for a bit.

"Anyways, what did you said previously? Clementine has a plan?" asked Frank while raising an eyebrow.

"Don't worry, it's nothing bad. She just wanted us to all fight to almost death so we could awaken some inner power or something. It actually worked multiple times, Kuro, Julia, and the rest, all of them emerged with some kind of asspull at the end, which means your power enhanced and you developed new abilities… I don't think I developed much, I got beaten by your sister hard." Said Dan.

"Hahah… I surprised you, didn't I?" asked Kamei with a cheeky smile.

"Indeed! You're one tricky little girl, aren't you?" said Dan with a charming and cheeky smile. He was a man that naturally emanated a very womanizer aura from all his body, it was hard for Frank to keep his composure around a jackass like him, but he was a patient and open-minded man.

"I don't like him." said Orb while crossing her eyebrows.

"I don't like him either, but calm down. They're our future allies, we have to get along with them. They're strong, I admit it, so their help will be very useful in the future." Said Frank through telepathy, Orb sighed and nodded, she simply decided to not throw shades at him.

"So that was it? I guessed as much. Though the methods of our lady are always overly extreme, she lacks the tact the older Vampires said that her father has." Said Kuro.

"Indeed, her father is the Progenitor of the largest Clan of Vampires in all of Europe so he's obviously at another level- I-I mean, I am not trying to offend her or anything…" sighed Dan, feeling the stare of Clementine from afar. She was hearing this entire conversation but remained silent.

"You're always getting into trouble, Dan. You got a sharp tongue you can barely hold." Said Julia rather angrily.

"Come on, maid-chan. Don't be like that…" said Dan with a enchanting smile while winking at her, but she only grew more irritated.

"Master please let me teach him a lesson." Said Julia, her entire body emanated a strong and heavy presence…

"W-Wait a second, Julia, calm down for a bit, let's not start this again, please…" sighed Kuro, implying that there were several other times before where this same scenario happened.

"F-Fine…" sighed Julia.

"You're rather temperamental, Julia. Maybe we could help you grow out of that attitude." Said Gwendolyn.

"W-Well… How?" she asked.

"Have you thought having a kid? That always makes me feel good." Said Axitl.

"Huh?! A-A kid…?!"

Julia suddenly looked at Kuro, who felt a powerful pressure over his entire body.

What was Julia implying with such an intense stare?! Well, the two had been in love with one another for years, but had never confessed it… Julia knew already that he loved her. Perhaps this stare implied something way beyond the mere relationship between master and servant.

"Julia stop staring at me like that…" sighed Kuro.

"S-Sorry! I didn't meant to…" she sighed.

"Anyways, leaving aside the horny maid-"

CLANK!

"AGH…!"

A huge shield hit Dan's face, Julia couldn't contain herself anymore.

"W-Who are you calling horny?!" she roared.

"Shoggoth…"

Kuro suddenly summoned Shoggoth and stopped Julia from making a rampage again… Yes, again. The Vampire Maid was known for being temperamental, Dan had received more beatings from her than someone can count with the fingers of their hands.

After Dan healed his disfigured face and sat down again, making sure to be far away from Julia, he continued talking, although he was interrupted by Orb.

"How's Gustavo doing?" she asked.

"Ah, the old man? He's more resilient than you think. Despite the massive beating you gave to him, he's healing now. He's just taking a nap because he's old and gets tired like a grandpa does." Said Dan.

"I see… He was a formidable fighter." Said Orb.

"Hm? So you recognize the old man's strength? Well, your power was also insane! How can you just make up traps like nothing?" asked Dan while raising an eyebrow.

"It's a secret…" said Orb with a teasing smile.

"Huh… Anyways, Frank, you want to know more about those two oddballs down there, don't you?" asked Dan.
