Location: Academy Stage

Notes: Chernobog is referred to as "Brave Jakarta" while Taromaiti is "Demon King Tonas." in the play.


Brave Jakarta:( face)
At first, it was only just an interest.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
To play the role of a demon king on stage for Halloween.
It was a request upon learning my personal history.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
I am going to assume the "role" I did not want again,
even though it is only imaginary.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
I did not think that was distasteful.
I even felt that it was interesting.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
A fairy-tale where a morality play is performed.
There would be no deaths, no misery.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
A demon king's tale envisioned by humans was nothing but a tender thing to me.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
However...... such feelings of mine were betrayed in an unexpecting way.

Taromaiti expression joy.png

That proposal is such nonsense. I'm not convinced.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
The voice of a bitter young lady becomes a cool and clear stream that penetrates deep into my heart.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
Her brief comment rewrote my sweet sentimental feelings into an uplifting new adventure.

Chernobog expression halloween neutral.png

...... Although it is temporary, I do not want to be "a brave hero."

Chernobog expression halloween smile.png

Truly......

Brave Jakarta:( face)
It is truly intriguing. That's what I thought from the bottom of my heart.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
And now, I am patiently waiting, standing on top of a dark stage.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
There was one thing I couldn't say, however.
It was a shameless wish of myself, who was the genuine "demon king."

Brave Jakarta:( face)
That's what I thought in regards to putting an end to this play.
However, Chernobog shakes his head and drives that from his thoughts.

Brave Jakarta:( face)
The curtains opened, a brillian light like the mid-air sun shined onto me.


[Night 6: The Stage Begins to Dance]


Salomon-kun expression crying.png

O-O-Oh my gosh, Maaaster~! The play's starting already!?


2 options
Shhh. Quiet in a theatre. If it wasn't for this time, we'd be watching it, y'know.
Salomon-kun expression crying.png

Master, are you at the end of your rope?
My body and figure aren't the case for everyone in here!

Salomon-kun expression neutral.png

Darn straight! If that were true,
I'd be thrilled about the theatre-going experience on Master's lap right about now!!


Arslan expression halloween sad.png
  • Pant* *Pant*...... It's really tiring to keep moving.

It seems that lot is somewhere around here in this auditorium.

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

They're in the middle of their play right now.
We can't be reckless and cause a ruckus in here.

Arslan expression halloween neutral.png

Right. The Daikanyama Academy drama club has been repeatedly practiced for today, their long-awaited big moment!

Zabaniya expression halloween angry.png

I concur... Let's move out, Arslan-sama.

Arslan expression halloween anger.png

I have no choice but to build myself fighting spirit.
Alright, I'm pumped up! Let's roll, Zabaniya!!


The play on stage progresses before the whispering crowd in the dark.

Performing on the wing donning a brave hero's costume, Chernobog shouts and displays the sword in his hand.


Chernobog expression halloween neutral.png

My name is Brave Jakarta! I raise this holy sword to make a vow!

Chernobog expression halloween anger.png

To defeat the feared demon king, Tonas, and rescue the captive princess!


Chernobog roars greatly, raising the sword he holds high in the air.

A strong voice shakes the air in the auditorium. His face is brimming with confidence.

Though his acting ability is clumsy, it's not the first time he's had any more spirit and confidence, thus making it feel like a splendid performance.


Arslan expression halloween neutral.png

It seems he's going in rather confidently.
In that regard, even the actors would understand him.

Zabaniya expression halloween happy.png

He dedicated himself to practicing for a considerable amount of time
when he went to our school on a daily basis.

Arslan expression halloween joy.png

At first, he was originally feared as the former "Demon King," but...
He managed to gain the trust of everyone through hard work and effort.

Cusith expression halloween cheerful.png

That hero looks a little scary, but... he's an amazingly hard worker!


2 options (Same Response)
He wanted to make the play more of a success. We need to search for the pumpkins, quick.


Cusith expression halloween anger.png
  • Sniff Sniff*... *Sniff Sniff*...... Volos-kun's scent is...
Cusith expression halloween surprised.png

H-Huh? That's weird... *Sniff Sniff*... *Sniff Sniff*.......

Cusith expression halloween sad.png

Nnnnn...... No good, I can't figure it out.
Because of how cramped it is in here, everyone's scents are tightly packed together.

Cusith expression halloween sad.png

And look-- there's something on the stage.


Looking at where Cusith's pointing at, on top of the stage, there seems to be a giant pumpkin sitting in the back.


Cusith expression halloween sad.png

I thought that was an ordinary decoration at first, but......
There's no mistaking it, that's Volos-san's pumpkin sitting there.


2 options
That's massive! ! That's a lot of Volos' love...
Arslan expression halloween joy.png

It's already a small little room...
If it were just me in here, I'd be takin' a nice, relaxing nap!

Zabaniya expression halloween surprised.png

W-What...! Volos-sama put that much love into his pumpkins...!?


Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

...... You're right. I can feel the same power as the other pumpkins from that giant pumpkin.

Arslan expression halloween neutral.png

It's a huge power that you can't compare, might I add.
The number of fairies gathered inside that pumpkin might be proportionate too.

Zabaniya expression halloween surprised.png

From the moment we entered the building,
I noticed that the pumpkin's aroma was much stronger than before.

Arslan expression halloween neutral.png

Maybe that giant pumpkin is the cause of the chaos this time--
No, it might be the heart of the problem.

Cusith expression halloween surprised.png

That means... It's gonna be a serious problem if someone puts on that pumpkin!

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

That giant pumpkin is most definitely suspicious,
but there's no way we can examine it while the play's going on.

Arslan expression halloween sad.png

Hrm... There must be some way to examine that pumpkin......

Cusith expression halloween sad.png

We can't be seen or caught by anybody.
If there was someone like that, they could check that pumpkin for us.


3 options
Can't be seen by anyone... Can't be caught either... There's no person out there as convenient as that!
Salomon-kun expression naughty.png

Janjanjaaaaaaan~! This is a job for adorable lil Salomon-kun!

Salomon-kun expression crying.png

Heeeey, Master!! Your cute and talented familiar butler!
You really forgot about me!? You can't just forget about me like that! Bah!


Salomon-kun expression neutral.png

No way Salomon-kun is gonna get seen or caught by anyone!
This is my BIG opportunity to redeem myself!

Salomon-kun expression happy.png

Point is, I'm gonna go check that massive pumpkin and see for myself if anyone's in there!

Salomon-kun expression neutral.png

Okay, I'll be back in a jiffy! Please give me some pets when I get back!

[Some time passes...]

Salomon-kun expression crying.png

IT'S EEEEEEEMPTY!! No pumpkin, bear, child, NOTHING!!


1 option
Wait, it's empty!?


Arslan expression halloween surprised.png

I don't know what you did, but how!?
You're telling me the inside of that pumpkin is completely empty!?

Zabaniya expression halloween surprised.png

A-Arslan-sama! We're in the middle of a play! Please use your indoor voice!

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

However, I don't understand how they did it,
but there can't be a mistake about what [Player] said.

Cusith expression halloween shocked.png

Even though it's so big and shady, nothing has happened yet...
It's so eerie!

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

The force coming from that pumpkin is massive, however.
We'll need to take countermeasures for that as well.

Arslan expression halloween sad.png

You're only wasting time by saying that.
Since you asked, we'll split into search parties.

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

We don't know where the pumpkins could be hiding at.
Everyone, you must not let your guard down.

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

That said... You will take the aisle on the right-hand side, [Player]-sama.
Cusith-sama, I trust you with the aisle on the left-side.

Arslan expression halloween neutral.png

I'll be searching the middle aisle then.
If anything happens... come immediately.

Cusith expression halloween anger.png

You got it! Let's finish this quick so we can watch the play!

Arslan expression halloween neutral.png

Zabaniya, I need you to go backstage.
Give an explanation of the situation to everyone at the theatre club.

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

Acknowledged. I'll get to it right away. Everyone, I wish you luck.

Salomon-kun expression happy.png

It looks like we split up with no problems.
Don't you worry, Master! I'm still here with you~!


2 options (Same Response)
I'm counting on you. Don't bump into walls or anything.


Salomon-kun expression neutral.png

Ehehe...... You can count on me!
I'm so enthusiastic about this!

Salomon-kun expression happy.png

I'm eager to show this off to you, Master!
My investigation skills as a 3rd Class Detective Butler!


Inside the dimly lit assembly hall, each member of the group searched through the area they've been assigned to.

While you and the others are working on that, the tale continues with the Demon King's appearance on stage.


Taromaiti expression halloween neutral.png

This is the group of heroes? Don't make me laugh.
There's no use hiding or running away from I, Demon King Tonas.

Taromaiti expression halloween anger.png

Rather, those that stand before me shall abandon all hope!


2 options (Same Response)
She's perfect for the role, isn't she? Taromaiti's in high spirits.


Salomon-kun expression crying.png

That young lady plays the Demon King better than I expected.
Honestly, it's kinda scary that she fits the role.

Salomon-kun expression neutral.png

In any case...... Those pumpkins are nowhere to be seen.
Not even by the "eye of Salomon-kun."


2 options (Same Response)
Maybe they're not here. It feels like there's a surprise waiting.


Arslan expression halloween sad.png

How strange... There's nothing to be found.
Maybe there's something I overlooked? The seats, the stage maybe...?

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

I've returned, Arslan-sama.
The situation doesn't seem to be good. Report.

Arslan expression halloween surprised.png

Oooohh, you're back Zabaniya.

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

By Arslan-sama's command, communication from the support unit surrounding the site in private was cut off!

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

We've lost contact with Maria, Azazel and Gabriel-sama who were taking command as well!

Arslan expression halloween anger.png

Damn, the enemy is already surrounding the building!?
Stop the play RIGHT NOW! Be cautious in evacuating the guests--

Children's voices:( face)

  • Giggle Giggle* You shouldn't be so noisy.

You gotta be quiet while you watch a play~

Arslan expression halloween anger.png

.........!

Zabaniya expression halloween angry.png

.........!

Salomon-kun expression crying.png

Hnnnn... It's so dark in here, I can barely find anything......

Salomon-kun expression neutral.png

Are those pumpkins and the Bear even here at all...?


2 options (Same Response)
We gotta believe Cusith's nose. It feels like there's something we overlooked...


Salomon-kun expression crying.png

Master, look. It looks like the climax of the play.
Uuuuuugh, I wanted to watch it up close.


Turning your view by Salomon-kun's request, it appears the Demon King and Hero are having a confrontation.

The stage is illuminated by the spotlight, and the play was about to reach the climax now.


Chernobog expression halloween anger.png

I, Brave Jakarta, has been led here by the light of the holy sword!

Taromaiti expression halloween anger.png

I'm happy you've come, my sworn enemy of fate.
Witness the power of Demon King Tonas!

Taromaiti expression halloween anger.png

Come, my elite troops! Destroy the Hero!


Jack-o-Lanterns appeared from the wing of the stage by the Demon King's command.


Zabaniya expression halloween angry.png

Arslan-sama! It appears they were hiding behind the stage the entire time!

Arslan expression halloween anger.png

Damn! They can't be in the auditorium!
Those pumpkins are going to possess the actors of the play too!


2 options (Same Response)
Demon King Tonas is gonna become a pumpkin! They don't seem uncomfortable about it...


Taromaiti expression halloween surprised.png

(Uhhh..... What's going on? Your costume's different. Was there a change of plan?)

Male Beast Student (Red Wolf Mob with Pumpkin head):( face)

  • Whisper Whisper*
Taromaiti expression halloween anger.png

I will allow an image change like that!
I want to cherish the individuality of my voluntary subordinates!

Taromaiti expression halloween smile.png

Let's back on track! Huhuhu. While your companions have come this far,
they will perish by my hand. You will be all that's left.

Taromaiti expression halloween anger.png

My elite are unrivaled and limitless! Not to mention a tad unique as well!
Wallow in despair, kneel down before this overwhelming impediment!

Chernobog expression halloween anger.png

I shall not! Whatever despair may await me, I will not surrender...
I will hold onto the future, no matter the circumstance!

Taromaiti expression halloween smile.png

I see. I expected as much from a Hero that listened to noises.
However, will you still be as brave if you were to see this?


With a snap of the Demon King's finger, the Lanterns leave from the wing of the stage.

Then, someone completely unexpected accompanying them just came out.


Taromaiti expression halloween surprised.png

(Huh? The cast is different again!?)


Volos expression surprised.png

Uhhhhh...... H-Help me...! Please rescue me, B-Brave Warriooor!


2 options (Same Response)
Why is Volos on stage...? That's probably the role of the princess! !


Taromaiti expression halloween surprised.png

(Huh? Who the heck are you? I didn't hear about a change to the princess.)

JackOLantern expression pumpkin.png

The Princess has a stomache. This man will fill in for her.)

Taromaiti expression halloween joy.png

(I suppose it can't be helped then. Do you mind helping out for a bit?
I'm sure you'll do just fine, Princess.)

Volos expression sad.png

(...... Ough... Sure thing...)

Zabaniya expression halloween surprised.png

How in the world did it come to this? Why are they on stage?

Cusith expression halloween shocked.png

H-Hey, [Player]. Isn't the pumpkin scent getting increasingly stronger?


Looking around the building when Cusith pointed that out, You noticed something like smoke hanging around their feet.

The sweet aroma was being released from the huge pumpkin sitting on top of the stage.


Taromaiti expression halloween surprised.png

Oof...... What... What is this aroma...?
It's... making my head... dizzy...!

Chernobog expression halloween anger.png

I... I'm starting to feel groggy as well... I cannot allow it!

Chernobog expression halloween anger.png

Black Snow... Become an impeding barrier!
Night on Bald Mountain!


Snow fluttering around Chernobog becomes a barrier that protects him from the pumpkin fragrance.


2 options (Same Response)
This is bad! We need to stop that pumpkin!


Cusith expression halloween anger.png

We can't, [Player]! The scent is terrifyingly strong on stage, we'll get caught in it too!

Arslan expression halloween anger.png

Taromaiti... Chernobog-dono...! Hey! Zabaniya!!

Zabaniya expression halloween angry.png

Leave this to me, [Player]-sama.
I will burn the pumpkin fragrance with my "Rule"!


2 options (Same Response)
We're gonna suffocate in here! Stop it from spreading! I'll destroy the fragrance with this sword!


JackOLantern expression pumpkin.png

That's not gonna happen! Don't interfere with our plans!

JackOLantern expression pumpkin.png

Demon King! Look over there! There's more of the brave hero's friends!

JackOLantern expression pumpkin.png

Please give us your orders! Everyone's ready to kick their butt!

Taromaiti expression halloween anger.png

What...? Is that true!? Then beat them down immediately!


The pumpkin soldiers start rushing in by her command.


Audience:( face)
Ooohhh!! Incredible!

Audience:( face)
Are they about to start a battle? Do your best! Don't lose to them!

Arslan expression halloween surprised.png

The people on-stage are already deluded by the fairies, so watch out!

Zabaniya expression halloween neutral.png

It seems the audience sees this as part of the production as well.


2 options (Same Response)
Let's break through here for starters. Stay frosty, everyone!


Cusith expression halloween surprised.png

Right! Watch out for yourself too, [Player]!
