Event Quest:I'm Not Afraid of Halloween!:VN:4-2

[Translation by Kukuru]

Location: Daikanyama Academy

Heaven's Light:( face) Huh, where am I……? [Player]-sama? Why am I doing here……!

It won’t be any good if another person gets injured! Second team, fall back. Third team, front and center!

Heaven's Light:( face) A-Arslan-sama! What are you doing! This conduct is like a battlefield……!

Heaven's Light:( face) [Player], you have my gratitude! Arslan-sama! Please put down your sword-

Zabaniya! We’ll win in a short while! Back me up!

Leave it to me, Arslan-sama. I’ll back you up from behind!

Bullet of Love – Aim and take off! Shoom* *Shoom* *Shoom*!

Heaven's Light:( face) Z-Z-Z-Zabaniya-samaaaa?!? W-what in the world……? Is this…… a bad dream……?

So the Cubs have held out for this long. However – it’s already over. Third team, assemble!

Now, battle formations!

Please lend me your powers, my beloved vegetables! Go! “Straw Basket of Green Tips,” haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

All the sudden, Volos came barging in between them, the basket he kept in his possession turned out to be his “Hallowed Artifact.”

Various vegetables including pumpkins that were contained in that basket began jumping out.

Noooouuuouuuuuoouuuu!?

The vegetables were like a massive tsunami; Arslan was washed away.

Volos!?	Weren't you hurt by the Flames of Love?	You have a Hallowed Artifact?!

The truth about this “Hallowed Artifact,” there is a special use for it- Ah, the explanation will come later!

Please, [Player]! You are the only one in this situation who can-

Despicable! Even at this point, I can still……!

Uwawawaaaaaaa!!

Arslan pressed on and sprang out at Volos, causing him to tumble.

A-Arslan-sama! Let go of that young bear! *Shoom*-

Taken back by Arslan’s intentions, Zabaniya opened an opportunity for the first time.

1 option
There!

Tch! I didn’t expect that, [Player]!

1 option
Pursuit!

Heaven's Light:( face) We won’t let you!

Heaven's Light:( face) With that sword, you will not approach Zabaniya-sama!

2 options (Same Response)
Just a litte more!	Persistent as ever.

Angels:( face) All members, charge! Seize him!

Outnumbered, with attacks coming from all sides, [Player]’s movement is restricted.

Angels:( face) Prepare yourself! Receive the judgement of the law!

2 options (Same Response)
Tch!	There's too many of them......!

???:( face) Please wait. This person- There is something I want to talk to them about.

Excuse my rudeness. Please put your sword away.

I’ve regained my composure. Give me some time so I can tell them my story.

Heaven's Light:( face) Zabaniya-sama!? Are you sure? This person is a threat.

It is not a problem. Leave this place to me. Go rescue Arslan, who was swept away by the vegetables.

Telling the Angels to back down, Zabaniya then turned his face towards the other way.

There seems to be a misunderstanding, allow me to clear things up for you.

What I am doing now- This is everything I desired.

This is coercion, it is different from deceiving others. I…… wanted to change myself.

That time – the pumpkin heads, those mysterious children appeared in front of me.

1 option
Are you unsatisfied with yourself?

.........

Have you ever had this thought? What if people could truly change?

Arslan-sama can be described as an example of being openhearted, an honest friend.

He has an easy way of life. Also, he has a spirit stronger than anything else.

Despite me being young, before, I had to overcome my hesitation.

But, I am still stubborn. You must earn the opportunity for change from your guidance.

2 options (Same Response)
I’ll do what I can.	I won’t lose my own way.

But still, you are doing this on your own free will. You look forward to the future.

But what about me? Trying to follow a good example like this…… My progress is progressing rather slowly.

This is undoubtedly “impatience.” For this reason, I wanted change.

Now, my own heart is vibrant. Just like changing clothes, my behavior is different.

And look! The Angels, the Students!

I was formally a stubborn person. Now I am sociable, and they make me happy.

Someone who is suffering, you can choose between fun and splendor!

I personally wanted to be like this! Now that it has come true, in what way is this wrong?

3 options
That’s understandable but-	Nothing is going to change.	Go back to what you were before!
You can become whatever you want to be. Is that not what everyone wants? Please give me your blessing. I will start a new life-	That may be. But, there is still the desire of change for the better. There is no use denying it- You can change.

???:( face) Then, allow me to say this. The answer is “no!”

A voice as clear as the clear autumn sky, it was a refreshing feeling.

Huh!

Who’s there?! Who threw this! This is a blunt weapon? A vegetable……?

Fragments of root crops came from the silhouette standing in the opposite direction.

I will appear when I hear a request from someone! People call me the messenger of love and justice, the Knight of Rutabaga!

2 options (Same Response)
Knight of Rutabaga-sama!?	I have been waiting for you!

Hehehe. You seem to be in a tough situation, [Player].

You who is suffering from agony, Serious Soldier, listen to me well!

Cooking adzuki beans and pumpkins together, this produces home cooking which is called “vegetable miso.”

There are various reasons behind it. There is a theory that if you boil them in order, it will turn out amazing.

Boiling it “little by little,” then you let it sit and it becomes vegetable miso.

2 options (Same Response)
I’m learning something every time.	I'm getting smarter.

So that’s what it is! Such trivia, I feel there is some connection to me-

Cooking vegetables requires a lot of help.

Your life is like vegetable miso, is it not important to be cooked together thoroughly?

Everyone yearns for rapid progress, unexpected high heat in your food cooked by boiling will scorch your soul.

That’s…… I’m…… I’m……!

“Process” is crucial. Do not skip over that.

The man with a cheerful face, listening to the words of the Knight, he became agonized.

And- The Knight of Rutabaga opened an opportunity.

Now, [Player]! Cut off his bewilderment!

3 options
Yes, Knight of Rutabaga!	Zabaniya, return to your old self!	Is this a surprise attack?
		The Pumpkins are whispering to him, he can’t fight back those words! They’re words of temptation! If he gets a grasp of those words, he’ll suffer! Break through him! Clear away his struggles!

Drawing their blade, they cleaved what was attached on Zabaniya.

???:( face) How cruel! The things we did aren’t wrong!

???:( face) Oh well! You shouldn't have done that!

2 options (Same Response)
What was that voice……?	There’s no sign of another figure here……

There is no shape nor color, the being dissipates in the atmosphere.

And the freed man falls on his knees, hanging his head in bitterness.

I understand now…… Don’t be impatient, pace yourself well if you want change.

But still, that summer day. My heart was disordered by your brilliance.

Oh, if- I could have walked a different path.

But, you've cleared away my hesitations. I should steadily build up for change.

I am touched by your feelings for change. But – it is extreme to say that it will be the same for everyone.

But…… will it work out for me? I’m completely devoted to one side……

2 options (Same Response)
Zabaniya-san.	Don’t put this all on yourself.

[Player]-sama……

Change is beautiful, change is wonderful. But, try not to push yourself too hard.

A sprout will grow every day until it is a beautiful flower. You should not forget that.

…… I am sorry for getting you involved in this. Virtuous knight, please tell me your name.

I am the Knight of Rutabaga! I will help those who are in distress!

Well, I will help the next troubled person! Farewell! Adieu……!

…… What a mysterious gentleman. Virtuous and affectionate, what a wonderful ally.

Uh huh. This issue has been settled. Wahahahahahahaha!

A-Arslan-sama!? When did you return? Are you alright?

Everything is fine…… Am I still in high-spirits? Of course! I’m full of energy and in high-spirits as ever!!

2 options (Same Response)
The Pumpkin’s evil influence was cleared from you too.	You were very serious a while ago.

Ah, that pumpkin child. I wonder, have they been up to no good from the start?

Well, what can we say? We were under that strange power-

My “treasured sword” quells evil spirits while you possess the “rule” to oppose temptation.

I guess it did not work well in that kind of situation! Wahahahahaha!

That performance......!	That mischief was going too far!

So, you saw how we were behaving that time. We were completely different characters during that time.

Mr. Lion is such a troublemaker…… An attendee that will cause people to feel anxious.

My, what a sweet little girl. How do you do? I am Frankenstein~.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Lion. I am Alice…… Pretty Girl Detective Alice.

What you've said earlier…… Is Frankenstein not the name of a costume?

How did you know? These things must be trivial for a child like you.

It seems the disturbance has settled down. Thank you for your hard work, my rabbit assistant.

2 options
Why am I a rabbit?	Thanks for that, Knight-dono.
Aren’t rabbits nice and cute? Especially when they’re skillful.	What do you mean by that? I am a lovely great detective, that is all.

Phew – I finally was able to make it back. I got in with the pumpkins and got swept farther away than I thought.

Also, I picked up Cusith-kun along the way. Hey, Cusith-kun! Wake up before you get left behind.

Ah…… Master~…… huh? This…… dream……?

That was a fun dream…… Uuun, too bad I don’t remember much of it.

2 options (Same Response)
Thanks about earlier, Volos.	That was a fast recovery.

I was frantic during that time, so I don’t remember much. But, it’s good to see you again.

Oh, looks like they’re calling for us. Hey, Cusith-kun, straighten up!

Mmm…… I’m sleepy…… Let me stay here……

Now then, let’s interview the victims of this incident.

We might be able to determine the criminal’s objective.

2 options (Same Response)
We’re getting closer to the truth!	That’s right, Alice-chan.

Yes. Now, let’s have him tell us everything so far.

Right, I understand. I can tell you everything.

Alright, let’s hear it. That time when you were under that pumpkin.

…… I wonder what in the world happened.

Stretching out her back, Pretty Girl Detective Alice matched Zabaniya’s line of sight.

Fixed on the little girl’s strong gaze, Zabaniya calmly spoke-
