Diabolik Lovers CHAOS LINEAGE ー Subaru [09]

Monologue

Taken there by Laito-kun,

Subaru-kun and I headed for the living room,

where everyone else had already gathered as well.

I thought that Carla-san,

wanted to talk to me alone,

but perhaps that is not the case after all.

While Carla-san looked somewhat surprised,

when he saw Subaru-kun,

he did not seem to particularly mind his attendance, as he began to speak.

Carla: ーー It should be obvious what I want to talk about.

Quite some time has passed since we welcomed Eve into our manor, but I have yet to experience any developments towards becoming the Supreme Overlord.

Eve does not seem to show any changes either.

I am fairly positive that the path towards becoming Supreme Overlord will open to us once she has fully ‘ripened’ as Eve, but her blood still smells as foul as ever.

I do not notice anything different about her either.

Yui: ( I’m pretty sure I smell bad to him because Subaru-kun sucked my blood. )

( That’s why a Founder such as Carla-san perceives it as ‘foul-smelling’. Seems like he has forgotten all about that though. )

( He can wait for me to ‘ripen’ all he wants, my blood will never be delicious to him. )

Carla: At present, we have not been able to obtain any new information on the Supreme Overlord or Eve, while the situation remains stagnant as well.

However, I can only assume that the other Houses will continue their assault. In which case, we must make a move forward as well.

That is why I have decided that I will keep Eve by my side in hopes of triggering some kind of evolution.

Subaru: Wha...!?

Yui: Eh!?

Carla: Do you understand, Eve? From today onwards, you shall start living in my room.

Subaru: Oi! Why are you decidin’ this without our approval!?

Laito: So that means you’ll keep her all to yourself?

Kou: Carla-kun, you’re so lucky~

Azusa: If Carla wants to become the Supreme Overlord, that might be the quickest way to do so...

Carla: Yes, exactly.

While I am taking a chance by betting on a method which has zero evidence backing it up, as long as we do not have any clues, I believe I have no other choice but to test out all possibilities.

It is my destiny to rise to the top and govern over the Vampire race, and to do so I will do anything at my disposal to become the Supreme Overlord.

Yui: ...Ugh.

( Anything as his disposal...I guess he’s so obsessed with the title because he’s a Founder? )

( Even if he doesn’t remember, he might still be the same person deep down, just like Subaru-kun was. )

Carla: Subaru, do you understand? From this moment onwards, your supervising duty has been officially revoked.

Subaru: Cut the crap...So in other words, I gotta hand her over to you?

Carla: What do you mean? Eve was never yours to begin with.

*Rustle*

Subaru: Not in a million years. I’m not lettin’ you have her.

Carla: I beg your pardon? Could it be that you are after the title of Supreme Overlord yourself?

Subaru: Supreme Overlord? I don’t give a damn ‘bout that shit!

I mean, you’re over here obsessin’ over that stupid title like a fool but do you even know what the title holds?

Carla: ...Excuse me?

Subaru: As soon as you realized her blood tasted bad to you, you should have started by askin’ yourself the question whether you’re even Vampire at all.

Yui: ...!

( Don’t tell me, he’s going to reveal to everyone that their memories have been altered? )

( And that my blood tastes bad to him because he’s a Founder and not a Vampire... )

( I guess that might be a good plan. If we address it to everyone right now, it might bring forth some kind of change. )

Carla: What are you saying all of a sudden?

Subaru: You heard me. You really don’t feel as if somethin’ is off ‘bout your current self?

Like how you’re actin’ as our ‘older brother’, or what exactly you’re fightin’ for.

Carla: Hmph. Such an odd thing to say. I simply cannot understand where you are getting at.

Yui: ( Carla-san doesn’t seem shaken up. He must be very confident that he’s a Vampire. )

Subaru: Once again, I really think you should be a lil’ more doubtful of your own memories and this fucked up World!

*Thud*

Carla: ...

Subaru: ...Laito, Kou, Azusa. Her blood smells sweet to the three of you as well, doesn’t it?

Laito: Guess so.

Kou: Yeah, it makes me thirsty.

Azusa: Yeah, me too...

Subaru: Did you hear that, Carla? Seems like you’re the one who thinks her blood is disgustin’.

Carla: ...And?

Subaru: That’s because you’re not a Vampire like we are! You’re a Founder!

Carla: ...I was wondering what you would come up with.

Oi, Azua. Do you understand what Subaru is trying to say?

Azusa: Well...

Laito: Ah, could it be that Subaru-kun has fallen in love with Eve~?

Kou: Ah, I get it now! Subaru-kun doesn’t necessarily want to become Supreme Overlord, but he just wants Eve all for himself~

Carla: In other words, you have been blinded by Eve? Are you trying to confuse us?

Subaru: ...Che. It’s no use. It doesn’t seem like he’s willin’ to listen to what we have to say.

Yui: Yeah...I don’t think any of them sense anything strange about their own memories right now.

Subaru: Fuck!

Carla: Either way, I understand very well that you do not intend to let me have Eve.

In which case you leave me no other choice. I will simply have to take her by force then.

*Cling*

Subaru: He drew his sword...! Step back, Yui!

Yui: ...!?

Carla: Subaru. It is not too late just yet. If you obey and hand her over, I shall forget about everything you said just now.

You are still my younger brother after all.

Subaru: ...But I’m not? I thought a Founder would know better than to continue spoutin’ such bullcrap.

Carla: Come again?

Subaru: You’re not gettin’ her!

*Woosh*

Carla: Hmph. I cannot believe you would be as impudent as to throw a knife at me...I suppose you truly want to bare your fangs at me.

ー Carla strikes him down

Subaru: Kuh, you...!?

Carla: You shall learn that the punishment for betrayal is a big one. You fool.

Subaru: Who’s the fool here, huh!? Is this the best you can do now that you’ve forgotten ‘bout your own identity as a Founder!?

*Clang*

*THUD*

Carla: ...Ugh.

Subaru: Damnit! This won’t work!

Yui, let’s run! Now’s our chance!

Yui: Yeah, Subaru-kun!

Monologue

After clashing swords with Carla-san,

Subaru-kun managed to fend him off for just one moment.

Using that opportunity, we grabbed hold of each other’s hands.

And dashed off just like that.

Away from this fake familyーー

ー The scene shifts to a cave

Yui: ...Hah...Haah, haah...

Subaru: ...Haah.

*Thud* 

Subaru: ...It doesn’t seem like they’re comin’ after us. I just hope nobody saw us flee over here.

Yui: I wonder why they won’t come after us...?

Subaru: They might be shaken up. 

Even if they don’t believe any of what I said, I’m pretty sure Laito and the others also had their suspicions about the taste of your blood.

Yui: Now that you mention it, while the two of you were fighting, all they did was watch from the side.

Subaru: Since he didn’t order them to attack me, Carla might have been somewhat in panic as well.

I can never tell what that guy’s thinkin’ though.

...I just hope we can rest up a bit here.

Yui: ( Ah! There’s blood seeping through his shirt! )

Did you get hurt perhaps...!?

Subaru: It’s just a scratch. I’ll be fine as long as I rest up a little.

Yui: But it looks really painful. It won’t stop bleeding either...

The wound might have opened up from the sudden movement! Show me!

*Rustle*

Subaru: Ah, oi! Cut it out...!

*Rustle*

Yui: ーー Aah, I knew it. The fabric’s drenched in blood.

Your old injuries must have opened up again.

Subaru: Most of them were almost fully healed, so it’s no big deal.

Yui: ( That’s a lie. The wound’s wide open again. His stamina has surely gone down as well. )

Subaru-kun, suck my blood. Even if it won’t heal them, it should help you feel a bit better, right?

Subaru: I can’t do that. I won’t be able to control myself once I get started. I’m just not confident in my ability to hold back right now.

Selection

→ It’s for your sake (♡)

Yui: I’ll be fine. You haven’t sucked my blood in a while.

I want to do something for you. I want to actually do something for you as well, rather than always be the one getting protected.

Subaru: ...

Yui: So please let me do anything I can?

Subaru: What are you sayin’...? Don’t come cryin’ to me afterwards.

→ That’s fine (🖤)

Yui: That’s fine. Even if it kills me...

Subaru: Idiot, what are you sayin’...!? I won’t let that happen.

Yui: But if it’s to save you...

Yui: Don’t worry. I’m begging you, Subaru-kun. Have my blood.

I don’t want you to have to suffer all alone. As your girlfriend, I want to share the pain with you.

Subaru: Haah...You really are unbelievable. Always sayin’ the most outrageous things.

Well, I guess I can’t protect you if I don’t do somethin’ ‘bout these injuries. Now’s not the time to be sayin’ such things. 

Am I really that much of a loser that I can’t even hold back? I’ll show you that I’m perfectly capable of controllin’ myself.

*Rustle*

Subaru: ...I’ve made my choice. You’re ready for it as well, right?

Yui: Yeah, come here.

*Rustle*

On certain CGs, little black roses will appear on the screen. If you click on them, you get an extra line of dialogue.

“You’re shakin’. Are you alright? Don’t endure the pain and just tell me if it hurts, ‘kay? ...Although I might not be able to stop, even if you ask me to.”

“Nn...Haah...What makes your blood so incredibly sweet and hot?”

Subaru: ...Don’t go faintin’ on me ‘cause it feels too good, ‘kay? Don’t leave me alone. Hah, nn...Phew.

Yui: Nn...Aah...

Subaru: ...Nnh, nn...Hah...

*Rustle*

Yui: Ah...

( His fangs are sinking deep inside me... )

Subaru: ...Nn, kuh...

Yui: ...Ah, Subaru-kun...

Subaru: ...Haah...Your blood...It really does taste sweet.

Yui: Nn...You can have some more.

( Please, may my blood...help soothe his pain. )

Subaru: Idiot! Don’t entice me with those sweet moans! I seriously won’t be able to stop!

Yui: I don’t mind, if it’s you...

( I mean, he’s sucking my blood so gently, making me feel good... )

( My body feels hot, like I’m floating...Almost as if I’m dreaming. )

Subaru: But I do mind. I want to treasure you even more than I treasure myself...

*TIMESKIP*

Yui: And? Did it help you feel better?

Subaru: Yeah. I’m in a way better mood than before as well.

Yui: You did manage not to suck too much after all. I had faith that you would be, you know?

Subaru: Listen, don’t you think you’re bein’ a little too carefree now? My thirst hasn’t been quenched at all. 

Yui: Eh? Is that so? Then I don’t mind if you have some more...

*Rustle*

Subaru: Idiot! Why are you exposin’ your skin!? I said it’s enough!

Yui: R-Really...?

*Rustle rustle*

Yui: ( I don’t think he needs to hold back though. )

Subaru: We can’t sit here like this forever, can we? We have to discuss what we’ll do next.

Yui: Yeah, you’re right.

Subaru: Carla will definitely come for us to steal ‘Eve’.

Even without his original memories, he’s still got a big-ass ego, and he’s got his sights set on becomin’ the Supreme Overlord. 

Yui: Carla-san is a Founder, so in an actual fight, he’d be a force to be reckoned with.

Subaru: Yeah. With his memories gone, he didn’t seem to try to use his Founder powers.

Yui: Those are linked together?

Subaru: Beats me. I think it’s just that you need to have an awareness as a Founder, or else you won’t think of tryin’ to use them, right?

But we’re up against four people. Founder or not, if I try to face them head-on, I’d stand no chance.

Yui: ...I’m sorry.

Subaru: Hah? Why are you apologizin’ out of the blue?

Yui: I mean, if you hadn’t protected me, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt so you would have had an easier time facing them...

Subaru: Idiot. If I hadn’t taken that bomb for you, my memories wouldn’t have returned, right?

So don’t apologize. How am I supposed to react when the whole reason I ran away was to keep you safe? 

Yui: ...Yeah, guess you’re right. Then let me thank you instead. Thanks.

Subaru: Yeah. Don’t ever put the blame on yourself again, ‘kay?

Yui: ( Fufu. He really is so kind. )

Hey, I wonder how big this cave is?

And how far have we made it?

Subaru: Good question. It honestly might be safer to try and find shelter at one of the other Houses rather than running far away.

Yui: But the other Houses are also out to get Eve...They’re after me, right?

Subaru: The Orange House...won’t work. We only just faced them after all. I’m pretty sure Ayato is still enraged about it.

We could try to head back, puttin’ all our hope on Laito rememberin’ everythin’ but the chances of that are pretty slim.

Yui: Then...

Subaru: Reiji always knows how to keep his head cool, so we might just have a shot at the Scarlet House.

Shuu’s over there as well. If we play our cards right, they might just shelter us.

...Well, they might not take my words seriously.

Yui: That’s not true, Subaru-kun. You’re actual brothers after all.

Subaru: You say that, but our family has always been different from the Mukami’s or the Founders.

Yui: ...Even so, I’m sure that you’ll connect somehow. Don’t worry. Let’s have faith in the power of family! (1)

Subaru: The power of family, huh...? Don’t make me gag.

Yui: But...

Subaru: I know! It’s not like we’ll get any further by hidin’ in here.

I guess we can go see Reiji. Off to my shitty older brothers.

Yui: ...Yeah! I’ll follow you anywhere.

Subaru: Yeah, I know.

ーー TO BE CONTINUED ーー
