Diabolik Lovers LOST EDEN ー Kino Maniac [03]

ー The scene starts in the Ghouls’ manor

Yui: Haah...

( I’m feeling down. I’d love to have something sweet for a chance but that’s asking for the impossible, isn’t it...? )

ー Kino approaches her

Yui: Ah, Kino-kun. Do you need anything...?

( He seems to be in high spirits, I have a bad feeling about this... )

Kino: I figured I’d give you a nice treat. Here!

*Rustle rustle* 

Yui: A-A cupcake! Where did you get this?

Kino: They’re a rarity around these parts...but I just so happened to get my hands on one. Anyway, I’m giving it to you!

Yui: Eh? Are you sure?

Kino: Yeah, no biggie! Go ahead and give it a try?

Yui: ...I’ll take you up on your offer then. I was actually just craving something sweetーー

( Huh? This cupcake...I thought it was part of the decoration but could this bit actually be mold? )

Kino: What’s wrong? Come on, hurry up and eat it.

Yui: But, it has gone bad, hasn’t it?

Kino: Yeah, it might have. But so what?

Yui: Well...

( I don’t think I can eat this...What now? )

Kino: Don’t tell me you’re going to refuse? Must be nice being able to be so picky.

Yui: Eh...?

Kino: Most of the Ghouls living here rarely ever get to have a meal, let alone something of the finest, freshest quality. 

Yet you’re here turning down the cupcake I was so kind as to fetch for you? 

Yui: W-Well...

Kino: Since you’ve gone quiet, I assume you realize just how selfish you’re being right now?

Then better eat it. Right now, in front of my eyes. While showing your gratitude towards me!

Yui: ( What should I do...? )

Selection

→ Eat it (M)

Yui: F-Fine...I’ll eat it...

Kino: Yeah. You should have just said so from the very beginning. Come on, hurry up? 

*Rustle rustle* 

Yui: ( Right. I have no other choice...! )

→ Fail to eat it (S)

Yui: ( Still, I can’t eat this...! )

I’m sorry, I just can’t...

Kino: ーー So you trample all over someone’s good intentions and assume you will be forgiven just by saying ‘sorry’? 

Yui: T-That’sーー

Kino: ーー This is an order. Eat it. I’ll continue pestering you until you do. Do you understand? 

Yui: Butーー 

Kino: I won’t take ‘no’ as an answer. Or would you prefer for me to force it down your throat instead? 

Yui: F-Fine...I’ll eat it...myself...

*Rustle rustle*

Yui: ( ...If I just down it in one big bite, it’ll be fineーー! )

...

( Here goes nothingーー )

ー Kino takes it away

*Rustle*

Yui: Wait, huh...?

( It’s gone? )

Kino: Ahaha! Your eyes are nearly popping out! Is this what ‘a deer in the headlights’ (1) looks like? 

The cupcake’s right here. I’m surprised you actually tried to eat it. 

Yui: You were the one who told me to, remember!?

Kino: I was just kidding? A joke. You’re just stupid for not realizing that.

Yui: Whaーー!? 

Kino: Or do you prefer to eat moldy food? 

*Splatter* 

Kino: Go ahead, dig in? Enjoy this cupcake which I’ve just stepped on!

Yui: ( I can’t believe he’d do such a thing...This is too much... )

There’s no way I can eat that!

Kino: ...Then kiss me. I’ll forgive you if you do. 

Yui: Eh...? Where is that coming from all of a sudden...!? 

Kino: A single kiss and we can call it even. That’s a small price to pay, isn’t it?

Yui: ...Fine.

( It’s embarrassing, but I doubt I’ll be able to convince him no matter what I say... )

*Rustle rustle*

Yui: ( A quick peck...That’s all it is... )

*Smooch*

Kino: ーー You really are a failure, aren’t you? You call that a kiss? 

Yui: Eh...? 

*Thud* 

Kino: This is how you give someone a kiss. Nnhーー Hah...Phewーー ... 

Yui: Nn...?

( I can barely breathe...My head’s spinning...! ) 

Kino: Ahaha. I’m nowhere near done yet, so hang in there till I’m satisfied, okay? 

ーー TO BE CONTINUED ーー
