Mikaela Hyakuya

Mikaela Hyakuya 「百夜ミカエラ Hyakuya Mikaela」 is the deuteragonist of the Owari no Seraph series. He was a human, but was turned into a vampire against his own will.

Appearance
He has medium length light blond hair and blue eyes. After his transformation, he gained fangs like all vampires. As a Noble Vampire, he tend to wear the Nobles' style of clothing. It should be noted that despite being turned into a vampire his body kept growing as he is seen with an older appearance from the time he was turned to the present. The reason for this is because he refuses to drink human blood, instead drinking the blood from Krul, the vampire who transformed him. Because of this, his transformation into a true vampire is not complete, thus he still ages.

Personality
As a human, Mika was kind and gentle despite all the harsh events in his childhood. He was able to keep smiling and be happy because of his adopted family at the orphanage and despite starting at the wrong foot with Yu, he managed to befriend him. Mika was shown to be cunning and a good planner as he made the others think that he was allowing Ferid Bathory to drink his blood in exchange for good food while the truth was that he was biding his time in order to steal a map in order to escape with the other children.

However, Ferid knew about this and killed all the children except Mika and Yu. Knowing that if Yu stayed he would be caught and their sacrifice will be for nothing, he pushed Yu and told him to leave. In his final moments, he was happy that Yu finally accepted them as his family and stated that since Yu will stay alive it was okay for him to die, but knowing goes as he wanted.

As a vampire, Mika is a pale shadow of his former self. He never smiles and always looks unhappy. He didn't form any social ties with other vampires and prefers to distance himself from them. He is shown to rush into battle, but didn't care about glory. Also while in battle, Mika expresses a cold and emotionless look on his face whether facing a horseman of apocalypse or against a human as shown when he killed a horseman of apocalypse and when he fought against Guren. Unlike other vampires, Mika doesn't look at the humans as livestock, though he seems to have developed some distaste for some humans as he was willing to kill Guren and when reinforcements arrived, he stated that it was irritating that more humans have arrived. Also, Mika himself admitted that he hates both humans and vampires. However, Yu is the only exception to his hatred of humans.

Mika's affection for his family remained the same and was shown to harbor guilt for their death as he blamed himself. Mika was shown to be determined to save and protect Yu, his last family, when Krul Tepes declared war on the humans. When Bathory suggested to turn Yu into a vampire, Mika told him that he would kill him if he even lay a hand on him and when Ferid caught Yu and joked about getting a taste of his blood, Mika cut off his arm. Also, he has a distaste for Bathory for what he did to his family, but can't kill him due to Bathory being a founder. Mika also stated that he is not angry at Ferid, but at himself for not having the power to protect his family four years ago.

History
According Mika himself, he was abused by his parents and then dropped out from a car and taken in by the orphanage. When Yu arrived at the orphanage, Mika wanted them to be friends but Yu was very distant towards him. Mika made it very clear he was the leader, so he punched Yu. Afterwards, he told Yu that he used to be alone like him, but now he had a big family. And from that then on, he had one too. After Yu told Mika about how he was sent there, Mika told him his backstory. After the rest of the child told their stories, Mika told Yu that they weren't lonely because that day was the day their brother Yu joined them. During the meeting, the director suddenly began to bleed from her nose and mouth, and fell to the ground.

Then while outside they saw as the city was engulfed in flames. They had been attacked by the vampires lead by Krul Tepes. For the next four years, they lived their lives as livestock for the vampires. He gained possession of a map of the underground by allowing Ferid to have his blood. He and Yu planned to escape the place with the rest of the children from the orphanage. However it is revealed that Ferid Bathory, one the Seven Founders, knew of this and killed the other children except for him and Yu. He pushed Yu and told him to leave.

After the escape attempt, Mika was turned into a vampire by Krul Tepes against his will.

His original name was Shindō Mikaela. He was one of the children that was being experimented on by the Hyakuya Church to create a weapon of mass destruction, as part of the 'Seraph of the End' plan in destroying the world.
