ACEROLA BON APPÉTIT, PART TWO
[00:07] ---
And so, I'd like to get some
ideas from you, Tropicalesque.
[00:12] ---
To begin with, what has been cast onto
the Beautiful Princess cannot be called a curse.
[00:18] ---
It's not a curse?
[00:20] ---
She has been given a blessing.
[00:24] ---
Her beauty that enchants
everyone around her is innate.
[00:29] ---
Said beauty was simply made visible.
[00:34] ---
Made visible, you say?
[00:36] ---
I will not object any further.
[00:38] ---
But I believe she is not an opponent
to face with an empty stomach.
[00:42] ---
I have already decided upon that.
[00:44] ---
That woman is the first thing
going into my empty stomach.
[00:50] ---
Understood.
[00:52] ---
Then I will do some research
on whether or not there is a way.
[01:03] ---
However, I was rash
twice more afterwards.
[01:07] ---
I jumped at the Beautiful Princess
and lost my life.
[01:13] ---
True to my name of "Suicide-Master."
[01:24] ---
It is painfully obvious after five deaths.
[01:27] ---
Preparation of this raw material
requires a more drastic approach.
[01:33] ---
What I need to do
is change the way I think.
[01:37] ---
And thus, Princess Acerola, I will have you
change the way you think as well.
[01:43] ---
That means, for you to eat me,
[01:48] ---
I myself need to change
how I think, Suicide-Master?
[01:54] ---
The current situation you are in
[01:57] ---
seems to stem more from
your own beauty than the witch's curse.
[02:03] ---
If so, countermeasures need to be taken
not against the witch, but your own beauty.
[02:11] ---
In other words,
[02:13] ---
you simply must not be so beautiful.
That's what I'm saying.
[02:19] ---
You can pretend that such is the case.
[02:23] ---
Pretend?
[02:26] ---
Simply put, pretend to be an evil person.
[02:32] ---
Act tough.
[02:41] ---
How you look now already isn't cutting it.
[02:44] ---
From now on, cross your arms
when you're deep in thought.
[02:49] ---
C-Cross my arms?
[02:52] ---
From now on, I will provide dresses
that have gaudier designs.
[02:57] ---
And you shall eat your meals
with your bare hands, straight from the plate.
[03:00] ---
W-With my bare hands?
[03:03] ---
H-However, Suicide-Master, I...
[03:07] ---
And stop using that particular way
of saying "I," Princess Acerola.
[03:12] ---
From now on, refer to yourself
with a more haughty "I."
[03:15] ---
A haughty "I"?
[03:23] ---
I understand.
[03:24] ---
No, I get it.
[03:27] ---
From now on, I...
[03:29] ---
No, I shall try my best to look vulgar
in my behavior.
[03:35] ---
I will.
[03:37] ---
It may be better to change your name from
the elegant and cute "Princess Acerola" as well.
[03:44] ---
It seems you're not too particular about it.
[03:49] ---
Perhaps I should think of a more suitable name
for this menu item.
[03:57] ---
Against the Beautiful Princess who was cursed
to not be constrained by superficial beauty,
[03:57] OS
CURSE
CURSE
CURSE
[04:03] ---
you set up a superficial ugliness.
[04:06] ---
When you get to that level it becomes
a type of satire instead of a mere paradox.
[04:17] ---
Suicide-Master?
[04:22] ---
It seems I have died yet again.
[04:25] ---
I casually starved to death.
[04:27] ---
It cannot be...
[04:29] ---
You surely have not been starving to death
without me noticing, have you?
[04:33] ---
Rather, Tropicalesque, have you
any results from your information gathering?
[04:39] ---
No, I apologize, Suicide-Master.
[04:42] ---
After all, all civilians in the kingdom
have perished.
[04:46] ---
From hereon, I plan to extend
[04:48] ---
the range of information gathering
to beyond the kingdom as well.
[04:52] ---
I even have foolish thoughts
to visit the Beautiful Princess's homeland.
[05:24] ---
S-Suicide-Master?
[05:26] ---
Are you an idiot?
[05:28] ---
Why, after all this time, would you suddenly
throw away your life so easily?
[05:32] ---
You misunderstand, Suicide-Master.
[05:35] ---
No...
[05:36] ---
You have it wrong, Suicide-Master.
[05:39] ---
I, er, I did not mean to kill myself
or anything. I didn't.
[05:45] ---
But if I were to gouge out
one eye like that, um...
[05:50] ---
Yes. I'd look like a pirate
and become more prestigious, so...
[05:56] ---
Never do that again.
[05:58] ---
I acknowledge your effort,
but it's a little off the mark.
[06:02] ---
Wh-Why is that?
[06:04] ---
Whether you want to be more prestigious
or want to bluff more,
[06:07] ---
it's still all fake
so you should still be pretending.
[06:12] ---
Why are you actually
wounding yourself?
[06:15] ---
You'd be doing the same thing as all the humans
who offered their lives to you.
[06:20] ---
For you to no longer be the Beautiful Princess,
you cannot sacrifice anything.
[06:26] ---
Otherwise, you'd be doing the same thing
by solving the problem by dying.
[06:30] ---
You're right.
[06:32] ---
It's exactly like you say.
[06:34] ---
I apologize, Suicide-Master.
[06:37] ---
I regret my actions,
and I ask for your forgiveness.
[06:43] ---
Your speech is violent.
That is, it's not violent at all.
[06:49] ---
Right.
[06:50] ---
That's right.
[06:52] ---
Sorry, Suicide-Master.
[06:56] ---
It's messy but still orderly.
[06:59] ---
You can't hide the aesthetic sense
of the artist.
[07:03] OS
SHE STILL HAS A LONG WAY TO GO
[07:06] ---
Wh-What is so funny?
[07:09] ---
Oh, nothing.
I was just showing you an example.
[07:13] ---
An example of a prestigious,
handsome way to laugh, that is.
[07:19] ---
Have you never laughed in your life?
[07:22] ---
If I haphazardly laugh,
an entire nation would fall to ruin.
[07:26] ---
Then Princess Acerola, from now on,
you can laugh like how I just showed you.
[07:36] ---
That "kah kah" sounding laugh?
Er, that laugh?
[07:39] ---
That's right. Like this.
[07:46] ---
That's good enough.
Nobody will die from that smile.
[07:51] ---
Thank you very much.
[07:53] ---
Wait... Yes, indeed.
[08:05] ---
Ouch.
[08:11] OS
BURN NORMAL NORMAL
[08:11] ---
Despite me having to, I shoved Princess Acerola,
yet not even one scratch?
[08:13] OS
NORMAL NORMAL
[08:27] ---
It seems I have died yet again.
[08:30] ---
How many times have you died
out of my sight?
[08:35] ---
I cannot give up now.
[08:37] ---
I just need to hold out a little longer,
and then I can enjoy an exquisite meal.
[08:43] ---
If I may be so humble.
[08:45] ---
Master, have you grown an attachment
to that human while you've been taking care of her?
[08:51] ---
What do you mean?
[08:53] ---
I am asking you if you intend
[08:55] ---
on keeping the Beautiful Princess around here
at Corpse Castle as a pet forever.
[09:01] ---
Please tell me that you are not.
[09:05] ---
That doesn't matter.
Hurry up and give me the report.
[09:10] ---
I don't have any results.
[09:13] ---
As I mentioned before,
I went past the border
[09:16] ---
and traveled to the Beautiful Princess's
homeland as well.
[09:20] ---
But there was no measures I could take.
I could barely collect any rumors.
[09:26] ---
You said "barely."
[09:28] ---
Does that not mean that
you learned at least something?
[09:32] ---
Well, just a little.
[09:35] ---
But it's nothing more than a fairy tale too silly
to take the time to report to you.
[09:40] ---
A fairy tale? That's perfectly fine.
[09:44] ---
The Beautiful Princess was a fairy tale.
Go ahead and tell me.
[09:48] ---
It wasn't one fairy tale in particular.
[09:51] ---
Merely a commonplace legend
in human society.
[09:56] ---
It seems to have been determined
from the past
[09:59] ---
that the only way to lift a curse
from a princess is the kiss from a prince.
[10:08] ---
What Tropicalesque pointed out
isn't completely off the mark.
[10:12] ---
But for now, I need to keep different
possibilities open, including my own feelings.
[10:19] ---
But at least...
[10:21] ---
It's a good time for me to decide
what her new name will be.
[10:27] ---
For that woman, who has a beautiful, gleaming heart
like a sword from the Orient,
[10:34] ---
what kind of name would be suitable?
[10:38] ---
Oh, that's right.
[10:40] ---
A kiss lifting a curse
is still preposterous to think of,
[10:45] ---
but as a superstition,
or to ward off evil,
[10:49] ---
it might be a good thing
to keep that word somewhere in there.
[11:02] ---
It seems I have died yet again.
[11:05] ---
I starved to death.
[11:07] ---
As usual, I don't remember much
when I died,
[11:10] ---
but it feels like I've been dying of starvation
twice or thrice a night as of late.

Suicide-Master.
[11:49] ---
You don't need to say anything.
[11:51] ---
He will come back to life, right?
Because he is a vampire, just like you.
[11:58] ---
This individual will soon
come back to life, right?
[12:04] ---
He's not a vampire like me.
[12:07] ---
He used to be human.
[12:09] ---
His vitality and regeneration
is still a far cry from my level.
[12:14] ---
That cannot be...
[12:16] ---
Suicide-Master.
[12:18] ---
Does that mean if you keep dying,
you will eventually die for good?
[12:23] ---
Yeah. It's not like
I can keep dying infinitely.
[12:28] ---
I will leave, then.
[12:29] ---
Wait. It's only natural
to risk my life for meals.
[12:33] ---
And it's not your fault
that Tropicalesque died.
[12:37] ---
That's not true. If I had not come here,
this individual would not have died.
[12:44] ---
It seems you understand.
[12:47] ---
Well then, I shall be on my way,
Suicide-Master.
[12:51] ---
I assume we will never meet again.
[12:55] ---
All right.
[12:56] ---
That's fine.
[12:58] ---
I won't stop you anymore.
Do as you like.
[13:00] ---
But even then,
I want you to wait just a little bit.
[13:03] ---
I don't want you to move
while I consume my meal.

By you eating him, his death
is no longer meaningless or wasteful.
[13:40] ---
The death of this individual
who I have killed...
[13:44] ---
Sorry to make you wait, Princess Acerola.
You can be on your way now.
[13:48] ---
Don't brood too much over
our not seeing each other ever again.
[13:53] ---
Now that I'm full from eating Tropicalesque,
I can easily die a few more times.
[14:00] ---
If you ever get tired of your journey,
feel free to come see me at any time.
[14:07] ---
Suicide-Master, I have a favor to ask you.
[14:12] ---
Please turn me into a vampire.
[14:16] ---
Are you serious?
[14:17] ---
Or rather, are you sane?
[14:19] ---
Yes. I want to become a vampire.
[14:24] ---
Right now, I know not of a means to stop those
who wish to offer their lives to me.
[14:30] ---
Perhaps such a means does not exist.
[14:33] ---
Then at the least, I want to accept
those lives that are offered to me.
[14:40] ---
I don't want to waste their deaths.
[14:43] ---
I will eat all the lives I have killed.
[14:47] ---
I want to eat them.
[14:54] ---
I beg of you.
Please turn me into a vampire.
[14:59] ---
Please drink my blood, Suicide-Master.
[15:04] ---
You know
what will happen to you, right?
[15:07] ---
You will never be able to walk
under the sun ever again.
[15:11] ---
I am fully aware of that
and still ask you for this.
[15:15] ---
You will no longer be human.
[15:17] ---
I understand.
[15:18] ---
I am fully aware of that
and still ask you for this.
[15:24] ---
Your conviction shines through.
[15:26] ---
I think it's wonderful,
and I would like to respond accordingly.
[15:30] ---
Then...
[15:32] ---
But that's impossible.
[15:34] ---
Just like how I cannot eat you,
I cannot turn you into my minion.
[15:40] ---
Because I would have to sink my fangs
deep into your supple skin.
[15:46] ---
Is it still impossible
if I wish for it myself?
[15:50] ---
It's probably impossible.
[15:52] ---
To raise an extreme argument, your feelings,
your will, and your desires don't matter one bit.
[16:04] ---
Suicide-Master, you said that
my will has nothing to do with it.
[16:10] ---
Do you remember when I foolishly
tried to pierce my own eye?
[16:16] ---
At the time, as you took the candlestick
from me, you shoved me onto the bed.
[16:23] ---
Yeah, I did.
[16:25] ---
What of it?
[16:27] ---
Why do you think you were able
to shove me aside?
[16:30] ---
Why, you ask? It's because
I shoved you onto the soft bed, wasn't it?
[16:35] ---
Because you didn't take any damage,
I didn't take any either.
[16:40] ---
But I did take some damage.
[16:42] ---
I felt quite a bit of pain.
[16:45] ---
Even now, your handprint clearly remains
on the center of my chest.
[16:53] ---
I've been thinking this whole time,
[16:55] ---
but now I have one theory based on
what you've just told me.
[17:02] ---
If my will doesn't matter, but the will
of those around me is what is important...
[17:08] ---
Back then, your "attack" that ignored my feelings
of wanting to pierce my own eyeball
[17:15] ---
was ignored,
and was not considered an attack.
[17:19] ---
In other words, if you were to eat me
for my sake, while thinking of me...
[17:29] ---
That would be
the preparation for the meal.
[17:44] ---
I may be inexperienced,
but I leave myself in your care, Suicide-Master.
[17:52] ---
You have courage that an inexperienced
individual would never have.
[17:55] ---
Indeed, it's too much of a waste
for you to remain human.
[17:58] ---
I will do my best to meet
your expectations, my master.
[18:02] ---
Just because you're going to be my minion
[18:04] ---
doesn't mean you have to speak
that way, Princess Acerola.
[18:09] ---
I will abolish slavery as of Tropicalesque.
[18:12] ---
He would be my final slave.
[18:15] ---
So I see.
[18:17] ---
Then, what should I call you?
[18:21] ---
Call me Suicide-Master
just like you always have.
[18:24] ---
That is, if both of us survive this.
[18:28] ---
If anything,
as long as you are my minion,
[18:32] ---
I want you to become a vampire
who I can be proud of.
[18:35] ---
Your speech has reverted back
to that of elegance.
[18:39] ---
What happened to the prestigious laugh
that I taught you?
[18:42] ---
Th-That's right.
[18:46] ---
I am not nervous at all.
Er, no, I'm not nervous.
[18:50] ---
I possess your... Er, I have my faith in you.
Yes, indeed.
[18:55] ---
Trust? Come on now, don't make me laugh
in a serious scene like this.
[19:00] ---
I'm sure it's a virtue to believe in people,
but I'm not a human.
[19:05] ---
I'm a monster.
[19:08] ---
I am trying to become that same monster.
I want to become like you.
[19:14] ---
Just like you, a cool, tough,
and kind but beautiful vampire.
[19:24] ---
I'm sure you'll be able to.
[19:27] ---
Princess Acerola.
[19:31] ---
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion
Heart-under-blade.
[19:36] ---
That's your name, Kiss-shot.
[19:39] ---
Eat all the people who die for you
as if you were kissing them.
[19:44] ---
Once you gain eternal life
and live for a long time,
[19:47] ---
perhaps you may someday meet
a praiseworthy prince.
[19:53] ---
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion
Heart-under-blade.
[19:59] ---
I adore it, Suicide-master.
[20:03] ---
Deathtopia Virtuoso Suicide-Master.
[20:08] ---
It's the best.
[20:10] ---
I am very happy.
[20:12] ---
I will keep trying hard so that I may be worthy
of you and this name you have given me.
[20:19] ---
Yeah. Be diligent.
[20:23] ---
Oh, speaking of diligence,
this is my final lesson.
[20:27] ---
When you are really happy,
laugh like this.
[21:03] ---
Bon appétit.
[21:18] ---
It wasn't anything special.
I kill and eat. I kill and love.
[21:24] ---
Eating and loving meant the same thing.
[21:41] ---
And so, the noble girl
who was once called Laura,
[21:46] ---
the princess who was once
called the Beautiful Princess,
[21:49] ---
became a vampire by the name of
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade.
[21:56] ---
Just as planned, she became
a monster who ate humans.
[22:00] ---
And here I am, still alive.
[22:02] ---
And in the end, I never figured out
what the attachment I felt for her was.
[22:07] ---
Whether it was friendship,
affection, or simply lust.
[22:14] ---
But because it wasn't appetite,
[22:18] ---
or perhaps even if it wasn't because of that,
things went well so it doesn't matter.
[22:23] ---
It was a delicious affair, too.
[22:25] ---
In any case, this is a story
from roughly 600 years ago.
[22:30] ---
There's no longer a way
to uncover the truth.
[22:35] ---
I've only heard rumors
of what she's been doing afterwards.
[22:39] ---
But as I predicted,
she became a magnificent vampire.
[22:43] ---
The iron-blooded, hot-blooded,
cold-blooded vampire,
[22:47] ---
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion
Heart-under-blade.
[22:51] ---
With golden hair and golden eyes,
the Apparition Killer and King of Apparitions.
[22:55] ---
You've surely heard of her
at least once, right?
[22:58] ---
And I've recently heard a rumor
that Kiss-shot had finally been defeated
[23:02] ---
by vampire-slaying specialists
in an island country to the Far East.
[23:08] ---
But oh no, I think that's a sham
that definitely lacks credibility.
[23:13] ---
I won't believe in such a rumor.
[23:15] ---
I'm not worried about her in the least,
[23:18] ---
but how about I go out and see her
for the first time in 600 years?
[23:24] ---
We're both great women.
[23:26] ---
I'm sure we have tough and cool fairy tales
that we've piled up for the telling.
