Would agree it's a good point about the specifics of translation, and what was meant was that 'raising' someone, in any way, can also be a good thing. So if Krul raised Mika, or treated him as a pet, they are both good news that Krul views Mika positively, unlike other vampires who do not, and are indifferent to anything but blood anyway.

What is extra important is Krul and Mika trust one another, all the more significant since Mika is suspicious of everyone and trusts no one, not even Yu when Mika feels he is not switched on to the dangers around them.

We also cannot forget how Krul meant to keep Mika as a pet forever, so doesn't see him as a disposable weapon.
