Diabolik Lovers LOST EDEN ー Yuma Dark [Epilogue]

Monologue

I still vividly remember,

the tanks drawing closer with a roaring sound.

ーー As well as how my precious compared,

were ripped away from me,

by the onslaught of bullets fired from those machines.

It was Lucks, who told me to look up at the sky.

The soldiers working for the state army, killing us,

as well as we, being massacred by them.

we all live underneath the sky.

Underneath that sky, we’re all equal.

Those were...his final words.

ー Yuma wakes up in his room

Yuma: ...

*Rustle*

Yuma: ...A dream, huh? 

( I wonder why I still had a dream of back then...? )

Yui: ...Nn...

Yuma: ( ...Right. I guess we did talk ‘bout my leader and the others yesterday. )

Yui: Zz...Zz...

Yuma: Hah, look at that sloppy expression. I wonder what she’s dreamin’ ‘bout...?

ー Yuma looks outside the window at the sky

Yuma: ( ーー On that day when my friends passed away. I lost many things dear to me. )

( For better or worse, I was the sole suvivor as I was taken to an orphanage afterwards...Which is where I met Ruki and the others. )

( I looked death in the eyes once more, but was saved by Karlheinz-sama...Which ultimately led to meetin’ Yui. )

( There were times where I wished I would have met my end alongside my comrades, but now I no longer feel that way. )

( ...However, to this day, there’s a part of me which still wants to give them the final send-off they deserve. )

( I just think it’s no fair that they had to rot there by the side of road, never given a proper place to rest. )

( They might have been mere street rats, they did everythin’ they could to survive. )

ー The scene shifts to the entrance hall of the Sakamaki manor

Reiji: ...Look what the cat dragged in. 

ー Shuu walks up to him

Reiji: Shuu...So you have returned home. ...Excuse me, why do you look like that? Do you have no shame?

Shuu: Leave me alone. 

Reiji: Haah...Do as you want, but please do not cause us trouble. You are our King after all.

Shuu: ...

Reiji: ...? Is something the matter?

Shuu: Do you also...want to be the heir?

Reiji: Hah? Why are you asking that all of a sudden? Did you hit your head somewhere, perhaps?

Shuu: Don’t dodge the question. I’m being serious here.

Reiji: ...What a strange guy you are.

For one, your question is incorrectly phrased. This is not an issue of ‘wanting’ or ‘not wanting’ something.

What truly matters is whether you are suitable or not. It is the former heir who gets to decide, and Father chose to pass his powers down to you.

I would be lying if I said that I do not feel at least the slightest bit ashamed that he did not deem me most fit, but there is no point in being upset about that now.

In most cases, you will find that simply wanting something is often not enough to also be qualified for it.

Shuu: ...I see.

ー Shuu walks away

Reiji: By the way, Shuu. Where have you been this whole tiーーShuu!

...Good grief. What is that deadbeat’s problem?

Laito: Maybe something is actually weighing heavy on his mind for once?

Reiji: Laito...You were watching?

Laito: I guess it’d be more correct I was eavesdropping? Well, I guess Shuu finally came to the realization as well.

That there are people out there who want the thing which he wishes to get rid of. 

Reiji: ...I wonder.

ー The scene shifts to Kino’s manor

Kino: Haahー ...I guess I messed up.

Yuuri: What are you talking about?

Kino: About Shuu. I wanted to stir up some trouble, you see. 

I decided to mess with him in hopes of causing a rift between those two.

But don’t you think that I might have actually brought the Sakamakis and the Mukamis closer together instead? 

Yuuri: That’s not how I perceived it.

Kino: Not on the rooftop. But you heard their conversation afterwards, didn’t you?

After seeing those tears and hearing all those things, don’t you think he’ll most likely change his mind?

Yuuri: ...

Kino: Yuuri? Hey, are you listening?

Yuuri: I am.

Even if you are correct, that is not an issue. We still have our trump card after all.

And even without it, I believe that it will not be all too difficult to sway the Sakamaki’s heir’s heart a certain way.

Kino: Haha, you’re right. That guy seems emotionally frail. 

I mean, that’s exactly why I am very much looking forward to breaking him...Fufu.

 ー The scene shifts back to Yuma’s room

Yui: ...Nn...

*Rustle rustle* 

Yui: Yuma-kun, good morning...

( ...Huh? He’s not here...I suppose I’ll go take a look at his garden. )

...Hm?

( What’s this scent? It smells kind of burnt... )

...! Could it be a fire!?

ー Yui sprints to the kitchen

Yuma: ...Why did it burn?

Yui: Yuma-kun!!

Yuma: Oh, ya woke up! Breakfast is almost ready to be served!

Yui: Now’s not the time for that! There’s a fire somewheーー Wait, breakfast...?

Yuma: I was aimin’ for a soft-boiled egg but I ended up burnin’ it instead. Oh well, I’ll eat this one.

Yui: Breakfast...You made it?

Yuma: Didn’t I just say that?

Yui: ( So that’s where the burnt smell was coming from? It wasn’t a fire... )

A-Are you alright?

Yuma: I’m no master chef like Ruki, but I’m perfectly capable of cookin’ breakfast. Come on, ya go take a seat.

Yui: ( W-Will he actually be okay...? )

ー The scene shifts to the living room

Yuma: How’s it? Good?

Yui: Yes, it’s delicious. It looks...very bombastic though.

Yuma: This is how a real man cooks! Ruki’s the odd one out. Come on, have some more. I made plenty.

We might not be able to sit down and have a meal like this once we get back to Eden.

Yui: We’re going back already?

Yuma: Yeah. No point in stayin’ here any longer, is there?

Yui: ( I guess he gave up on Shuu-san after all then... )

Yuma: ...I know what ya wanna say.

Yui: Eh? 

Yuma: It’s written all over yer face. Ya want to ask me what I’ll do ‘bout Shuu, right?

Let’s just...forget ‘bout him.

We don’t have the time until he finally decides to change his mind. We just gotta fix it ourselves somehow.

Yui: ...Yeah.

*Ding・dong*

Yui: Ah...A visitor?

Yuma: This early? ...Smells fishy.

Yui, ya stay here. I’ll go open the door.

...That bein’ said, I guess it’s dangerous to leave ya behind. Come with me after all.

It’d suck if somebody were to snatch ya away the second I take my eyes off ya.

That Kino seems like the type of guy who’d rely on cheap tricks like that.

*Ding・dong*

Yuma: Oh shut up, I’ll be right there! ...Come on, let’s go. Don’t leave my side.

Yui: Okay.
