Then he has a Jekyll and Hyde moment when he becomes a figure named only "Gastraphetes". Gastraphetes attempts to fight Kazimir, in which the latter is defeated. However, he's swiftly defeated by Lala + Radomir. Surprisingly, Vladimir's teacher arrives after hearing about Vladimir's process in eliminating the SS virus. Vladimir's teacher, Vice Fennel, attempts to cure Vladimir but fails. However, he knows of someone who can. His name is Dmitri Greystorm, a Categomancer *Storm Magic User*. Dmitri eventually splits Gastraphetes from Vladimir and the former runs into the sea.

Alaric sat uncomfortably as Radomir completely devoured a container full of strange-looking fruits and vegetables. Lala giggled as she noticed Alaric's expression.

"Radomir likes to eat. A lot. Don't worry about him eating you or anything."

"Why would he eat me?" Radomir sniffed Alaric's head.

"You smell like fresh apples and asparagus. What do you taste like?" Alaric tried to get up but Lala laughed.

"He's joking Alaric. No need to run away." Radomir laughed.

"Who said I was joking? Drop your guard and I'll eat you like sushi." The room grew quiet before Radomir laughed. "I'm joking."

"You're kinda cute Alaric. You probably have some girl crushing on you." Alaric then thought of Rebecca's near confession, then her pointing a gun to his head.

"No I don't. Trust me." Lala got up and sat next to Alaric, hanging an arm around him.

"We're gonna get along real nice then." Vladimir walked in, holding a wakizashi in hand.

"So this Scarlet Nightdawn woman is a Doom deity? I'd like to cut her open."

"You hate her that much?" Alaric asked. Vladimir shook his head.

"For experimenting of course. I don't even know the blasted woman. However, that face is familiar." Radomir raised a hand as he took a bite out of the metal container.

"You don't think its....no. It couldn't be..."
