[edit] Plot

As Eliade walks down the hallway, she plots on a way to get rid of Allen and Lavi. Meanwhile Krory is looking at the portrait of his grandfather and grieves about his cirumstance. He has become a vampire who is hated by the villagers. Because he is shunned, the baron wonders if he will live and die alone in his castle, but he comforts himself with the fact that Eliade is with him. Since he showed interest in the outside world. Krory then wonders aloud if his grandfather cursed him to become a monster so he could stay by his side forever. Before he can continue his thought, a crying Eliade runs into the room. Rushing into a confused Krory's arms, she tells him that two exorcists attacked her and destroyed his grandfather's precious flowers. As soon as he hears this, the baron becomes infuriated. To punish them, Eliade encourages him to drink her blood so he can be strong enough to get rid of the intruders. When he hesitates, she informs him that he needs to do it so they can stay together forever. Upon listening to her words, he agrees and bites into her neck.

Back at the cemetery, Allen and Lavi have finished digging up the coffins and determined that all of Krory's victims are Akuma. Afterward, they discuss about their discovery. Lavi believes that the rotting flesh of the Akuma caused the pentacles to appear on the ground and Allen agrees, saying that this may not be a vampire hunt at all. Before they can continue their conversation, Krory suddenly appears behind Lavi and sends the exorcist flying into the castle's wall. He immediately attacks Allen who barely activates his anti-Akuma weapon on time. The latter tries to explain to Krory what they just learned about him, but the baron refuses to listen. To show that he does not want to fight, Allen deactivates his left arm and begins talking. He informs Krory that all of his victims were actually Akuma and questions whether he is really a vampire. To prove his point, Krory appears behind Allen and declares that he will drink his blood. However, he finds Allen's blood to be bitter in which Allen reasons that it is because he is human. Krory scoffs that Allen is just a monster and declares that he does not care about Akuma nor about vampire - he only wishes to be with Eliade forever.

Because of this wish, Krory will kill anyone who attempt to sabotage their relationship. With that being said, he throws Allen into the castle. Believing that he has defeated them, Krory is about to go back to the castle when Lavi's hammer almost strikes him. Bookman's apprentice is not happy and tells the baron that he will be rough on him. Krory finds his statement to be interesting, and the battle between the two begins. Meanwhile, back in the castle, Allen regains consciousness and stumbles into a hallway. He mutters to himself that that the injury must be bad that he is seeing stars and is surprised to see that the "stars" is actually Timcanpy. Hearing the battle outside, Allen realizes that he must hurry back. Leaning his hands against the wall to keep balance, the exorcist accidentally presses a secret button opening up into a hidden doorway. Startled, Allen falls through the door and finds himself in a secret chamber. Looking around, the exorcist notices a silhouette on the wall which appears to be an Akuma. However, the door's slamming distracts Allen so when he looks up again, the shadow has disappeared. Wondering about he has just seen, Allen is suprised to see Eliade standing right behind him.

She is upset that he entered her secret room without her permission and starts to put makeup on her bitten neck, which Allen notices. Before he can react, Eliade shoves him into the bookshelf and starts to put pressure on his chest, saying that she will finish Krory's job for him. Allen begins to gasp for air and feel sleepy. Seeing this, Eliade uses her other hand to punch him to keep him alert. Even he wanted to close his eyes, Allen knows that he will be dead if he does so he begins talking to keep himself awake. He informs Eliade that Krory is not a vampire and that he may be their ally instead. Because of this reason, he refuses to fight either one of them. Infuriated, Eliade starts to throw a melee of punches and laugh hysterically. Grabbing the boy by his coat's collar, she declares that Krory IS a vampire, and as she blushes, she states that no one will take him away from her. She then launches the exorcist into a wall, which effectively knocks him out cold, and grabs an ax. Her intention is to cut off Allen's head and place it on a spike as a warning to anyone who dares to bother them again.

During this time, Lavi and Krory are still fighting each other. As they fight, Lavi explains to Krory his theory on him. Apparently Krory is sucking the blood of Akuma and is an accomodator of a parasitic-type Innocence just like Allen. He adds that he believes that the baron is an exorcist who is subconsciously hunting down Akuma. Since Krory refuses to hear any of it, Lavi activates one of his hammer seals and tells him that he will expect an answer when the baron wakes up. Meanwhile, Eliade is about to cut Allen's head off when suddenly Allen's left arm grabs the blade, preventing her from doing the deed. At first, she thinks that the boy is still awake but is stunned to see him unconscious still. The exorcist's left arm destroys the ax and activates itself. It attacks Eliade and injures her. A frightened Eliade wonders to herself what kind of boy Allen is. As she watches, Allen's curse starts to transform into a skull, which reveals Eliade as a Level 2 Akuma. Mana's voice is heard telling Allen that he has come back and that the darkness has returned. Allen then recalls a time long ago after the incident with Mana. A young Allen explained to Mana that he planned on becoming an exorcist even if he loses his left eye. Since he had made his decision, his foster father told him to fall into the world of black and white. The skull then enters into Allen's head and his left eye is regenerated with a moving gear-like monocle appears in front of it. Seeing Eliade's true identity, a fully awaken Allen declares that he now has a reason to fight her.
