Wolf Kingdom and Vampires Kingdom

In the Wolf Kingdom, Erik was busy bickering with Bison.
"Erik, Bison... instead of arguing, why don't you two go look for the Sacred Blood? Let Ken and Excel handle the search for the White Werewolf," said Jiro.
"Sacred Blood? What for? We'd be better off looking for 'young blood' instead," said Erik, unable to take things seriously.
"Young blood... the blood of teenagers," Bison sang out.
"I'm serious. You need to understand: if a White Werewolf marries the bearer of the Sacred Blood, they will produce incredibly powerful White Werewolf offspring. With that, we can restore the Wolf race to its former glory. And, of course, we'll turn the Vampires into slaves of the Wolf race," Jiro explained, revealing his reasons for seeking the White Werewolf and the Sacred Blood.
"But where is the White Werewolf born?" asked Ken.
"According to the Book of Wolves, he was born in this very city," Jiro replied.
"Excel, why have you been so quiet this whole time?" asked Ken.
"According to the Book of the Pious Wolf, silence is golden," Excel answered.
"That's not from the Book of the Pious Wolf; that's what the *Ustad* says. Staying silent keeps us from sinning. Because, truly, if we speak carelessly and hurt someone's feelings, we incur sin," said Taufan, acting like a know-it-all.
"You're a know-it-all. Have you ever actually listened to an *Ustad's* sermon?" asked Excel.
"Don't even ask. Before I became a wolf, believe it or not, I actually spent time at an Islamic boarding school," Ken answered smugly.
"Why are we suddenly talking about sin?" asked Jiro.
"It's your fault," Ken said, blaming Excel.
"You were the one who started talking about sin!" Excel retorted, countering Ken's words.
"Right now! Go. Carry out your mission," Jiro shouted, clearly annoyed by the bickering between Ken and Excel.
"Understood, Jiro," Ken, Excel, Erik, and Bison said in unison before immediately speeding off.

_Back at the Vampire Kingdom, Agra—who was being held captive—kept struggling against his confinement.
"Volturi...! Let me out of here!" Agra shouted from the underground dungeon.
"Agra! You won't be getting out," said Volturi, who had just arrived.
"Let me out of here!" Agra demanded loudly.
"I will let you out... once your children have successfully brought the Sacred Blood before me!" Volturi stated firmly.
"The Sacred Blood?!" Agra asked in shock.
"Seven hundred years ago, you ignored the Sacred Blood. And this is the punishment you deserve," said Volturi.
"What? Has the bearer of the Sacred Blood returned? After we waited for hundreds of years?" Agra asked.
"You are right, Agra. The Sacred Blood has returned to ensure the immortality of the vampire race," Volturi replied, then immediately sped away, leaving Agra behind.

_At school, Sisi was puzzled; it was almost time for the break, yet Nayla still hadn't shown up for class.
"OMG, hello! Where on earth is Nayla?" Sisi wondered to herself.
_Galang, having fetched some tea for Nayla, walked into the classroom.
"Sorry, Ma'am, I'm late," Galang said as he entered.
"Alright, go take your seat," said Mrs. Syahrini.
"Aren't you going to ask me anything first, Ma'am?" Galang asked.
"Galang, I'm tired of constantly asking you. You're late every single day; if I ask why, your excuse is always that your motorcycle broke down," Mrs. Syahrini said loudly. Galang just smiled as he listened to her.

"Galang, where is Nayla?" Sisi whispered, "What happened?"
"Nayla fainted," Galang replied as he put down his bag.
"What? Nayla fainted?" Sisi shouted, startling all the students nearby.
"Sisi? What's wrong? Why are you shouting like that?" asked Ms. Syahrini.
"It's nothing, Ma'am. May I go to the infirmary?" Sisi asked, taking the opportunity to request permission to leave.
"What are you going to the infirmary for?" Ms. Syahrini asked.
"Nayla fainted, Ma'am," Sisi replied.
"Oh, alright then, go ahead..." said Ms. Syahrini.
_Sisi went to the infirmary to check on Nayla.
"Nay, wake up, Nay!" said Sisi.
"Ouch!" cried Nayla, who had just regained consciousness and was feeling pain.
"Nay! How did you end up fainting?" asked Prilly.
"Fainted? Oh right, that was all Galang's fault," Nayla replied, sitting up from the cot.
"Where are you going, Nay?" asked Prilly.
"I'm going to find Galang," Nayla answered, leaving the infirmary to look for him.
