(Harukin's POV)
In the dining table, I placed the vanilla cake in front of them.
"..."
"Harukin? Where did you get your ingredients? And why is your top opened on the chest?"
Akane asked me while slightly blushing.
"Don't mind me. Just take a big slice and eat it." I said with proud expression.
All of them except the salty boy took a slice and placed on their place.
"Alright then, everyone!" Akane initiated.
"Itadakimasu!" All of them said at the same time.
They took a bite on a cake,
"..."
Suddenly, all of them has a pleasured expression.
"Hmmm!..."
"Onii-chan! It was super delicious. I want to eat more." Ako praised.
"Me, too, I want more." Taichi followed.
All the kids praised my cooking except the salty boy.
I noticed tears fell from Akane's eyes,
"What's wrong, Akane. Does it not suit your taste?" I asked her.
Akane wiped her tears with her arms and said with a smile.
"No, it's really delicious, Harukin. It just that, it reminded me something in my past."
"Okay then."
After that, I helped with the cleaning and went together with them to sleep on the bed.
Few hours later, I noticed someone climbed up the bed.
I slightly opened my eyes and saw the salty boy talking to someone.
He has short, wavy blond hair and blue eyes, which gives him the appearance of a foreigner.
This must be Mika, if he's here, their plan to escape here in this place is starting.
I have to at least delayed their plan until daytime, it safer during daytime because if they tried to gang up on us, I can still use sunshine to protect them at the same time.
Few minutes later, I noticed Akane went down the bed also, this means they going to start their escape, I should convince them to delay their escape plan.
I also went down and saw the three of them having a conversation,
"You're still up?"
Akane saw Mika and warmly welcomed him,
"Oh, welcome back, Mika."
The she glanced at the salty boy,
"Yuu-chan, you ate the curry I made?"
"..."
Salty boy became happy and spoke,
"Alright, let's go!"
Mika nodded and said,
"Yeah, let's go!"
He glanced at Akane,
"Akane, wake everyone up."
"Wh-What?" Akane was confused.
"You two, stop what are you planning right now." I spoke at them.
Mika stopped and glanced at me,
"Why? And who are you anyway?" he responded.
"Harukin?" Akane said.
Salty boy went towards me and grabbed my collar,
"You! Who are you to order us just like that?"
"Do you guys know anything about vampires? Moving your plan during the night when vampires are strongest, do you want your family to die? If your planning to escape from here, you should do that during daytime." I explained to them.
Salty boy became furious and was about to punch me, Akane pushed away the salty boy from me.
"You two, please stop fighting!" she yelled.
"Akane..." Salty boy was surprised.
"Why are the two of you always argued with each other? Can you two just get along." Akane scolded us.
"That's impossible." I said.
"I don't want to." salty boy responded.
"But, we need to escape right now before it's too late." Mika spoke.
I pointed at map that he's holding,
"That map, a certain vampire gave you that right? That's already sounds suspicious."
Mika froze then nodded.
"Then, this can also mean, it's a trap." I walked towards him and took the map on his hand, I placed the map on the table then looked at it thoroughly,
"Hmm... this map is real, but according to my calculations, he must be here on the exit waiting for you guys arrived there and die by his hands." I said as I pointed near the exit on the map.
Mika face went paled,
"Mika, don't listen to this guy!" Salty boy shouted.
"I don't know anymore, there's something right on what he said just now." Mika despaired.
I looked at them with serious expression and said,
"If you don't believe me, at least delay your plan and wait until daytime, just in morning is enough, I'm asking you two for the sake of your family's safety."
Mika looked at me with serious expression.
"What if, our plan failed because of you."
I smiled at him and responded,
"I gladly become the sacrifice for you guys to escape safely."
More like, a death trap to the vampires.
*Sigh*
Mika sighed then he smiled at me,
"Alright then, I agree with you for now and postpone our plan, but only until morning, okay."
"Thank you very much." I said.
Salty boy became annoyed,
"Tch! Do what you want!" he said as he went back to the bed and sleep.
---
Morning arrives, we finished our preparation and sneakily followed the escape path indicated on the map, we arrived on the stairs going upward towards the exit.
Mika peek on the way to the exit and saw no one guarding it, he returned back and looked again on the map,
"Once we get through here, we're out." he said.
"Good, we're almost there." Salty boy positively said.
"Yay!" All the children responded in joy.
Mika closed the map and glanced at salty boy,
"Let's go."
"Yeah." the salty boy agreed.
These two... do they swing that way?
Poor Shinoa...
While walking towards the exit,
"All of you, no matter what happened, don't ever leave by my side unless I told you, Understand!" I spoke with serious tone.
"Yes!" All of them responded except the Mika and the salty boy.
When the light lit up on us in the exit,
"Ah-huh?"
We stopped when we heard someone's voice echoed.
Someone walked out of the pillar and spoke,
"I've been waiting... my poor little lambs."
He has a slender figure with long, silver hair that reaches his hips and possesses rather handsome looks. He has bangs and a lock of hair over either ear. He keeps his hair tied back into a pony tail with a ribbon.
Everyone except me was scared when they saw him.
"Yes, that face... That face human make when their hopes are suddenly taken away... This is why I can't stop playing this game." the white haired vampire spoke.
"Game..." Mika mumbled while in despair.
He immediately remembered and looked at the map.
I know, I was right in beginning,
Suddenly, the white vampire disappeared in front us but...
"Huh?"
Everyone was surprised.
The white haired appeared not far behind us.
I turned around and looked at him,
"I'm telling you, child trafficking is a serious crime you know. And now, your trying to kidnapping a child, I must punish you for that." I spoke while raising a torned right arm in my hands.
The white haired vampire looked at me shocked expression and asked,
"What are you?"
I smiled at him and answered,
"Just a lost little sun in the underground castle... Here! you can have your arm back."
I threw his torned arm on the floor in front of him, but suddenly it turned to ash.
"Oops, sorry about that. hahaha..." I said while laughing at him.
I looked at the children beside me and spoke,
"Looks like our plan to escape peacefully has failed... You guys, go ahead and ran towards the exit first."
"What about you, Harukin?" Akane worriedly asked.
"Don't worry about me, I catch up later after I finish my business here." I said as I looked on the white haired vampire in front of me.
All of them ran fast towards the exit.
"Like I let them escape." the white haired vampire gritted his teeth tried to dash and chase after the children.
When he ran pass me, I quickly swing my hand that has been imbued with hamon and chopped both of his feet.
Losing his feet, the white haired vampire dropped on the floor.
"Arrrghh!!!" he wailed in pain.
I walked towards him and stepped on head,
"Don't go after them, we're not finish yet." I said.
I imbued my right foot with Hamon and stomped his left arm.
"Ahhhhh!!!" he screamed in agony.
His left arm melted.
"With that, you can't stab your heart and turned into demon, Ferid."
"You..."
I immediately kicked his side and stopped him from finishing his words.
"Ugh~" Ferid groaned.
"Now, Apologise to me that you are born into this world." I said with arrogant tone.
