Pendulum, a criminal organization that worships the progenitor vampire known as TRUMP, now seems to be involved in the case—and Dali just so happens to have some unfinished business with them.

Wary of potential Pendulum strike on the Delico residence, the men send the children to stay with Clara, the Delico nanny. But something strange is happening to the oldest child, Theodore...

Clara and the others are baffled by young Theodore showing signs of entering his cocoon phase at such an early age. Meanwhile, the other children take Ul with them for a little adventure outside the manor.

As a dhampir, Juras doesn't have long left to live. In an attempt to kill TRUMP before he expires, he uses his cocoon phase power to enter the deity's mind.
