A ticking bomb
It came as quite a surprise to Paul that the one who had requested a return to the tenth castle, was none other than Leo. He was sure that the other Vampire Knight would be helping Quinn out to the best of his abilities, especially since they were going up against the Dalki.
Who better to have by your side than someone who had the experience of fighting them in the past? However, as soon as he saw the other person next to Leo, he was beginning to get a rough idea what led them here.
Erin's usual blonde hair had turned black, but that wasn't the most prominent thing that stood out about her. That would be the pair of chains that were now covering both arms, clearly tied up in a restrictive way. On top of that, he could see that Erin's arms were still twitching.
'What's happening to her? Is it some type of disease?' Paul wondered. 'Leo has always had a soft spot for his students, but Erin seems to go even above that. I just hope nobody will ever use that against him.'
