Twisted Wonderland Scary Monsters Event - Episode 3-4

Episode 3-4

We Should Discuss This Carefully

-Main Street-

Crowley: The party that was scheduled for tomorrow, October 31st……

It may have to be canceled.

Ace, Deuce, Grim: WHAT~~~~~~~~!?

Grim: B- B- But why!?

Why are you gonna cancel the party everyone was looking forward to the most!?

Vargas: Bear in mind that we’ve already tried many gentler approaches for dealing with the situation. But since they still won’t listen……

Crewel: What if, next time they get carried away, they hurt one of you instead of a statue?

Sam: A swanky party is the perfect prey for a MagiCam Monster.

Trein: Unfortunately, for the sake of your safety……

We cannot possibly throw a party in the midst of this turmoil.

It is our duty, as adults, to protect children in their hour of need, even if they may resent us for it.

Kalim: Professors…… Sam……

Crowley: That’s exactly right. Fortunately, we are magi. We can restore the statues of the Great Seven to their former glory immediately.

However, if someone were to be injured, the police would have to be notified.

And if that happened……

……Ah~~~~! I don’t even want to think about it!!

Ahem! In any case, this is to prevent any more uproars.

Vil: The professors were all valiant, but the Headmaster is just worried about getting caught……

Jade: It seems as though he has a secret that would be troublesome if the police were to investigate.

Deuce: B- But this is what we’ve been working so hard to prepare for.

Epel: Everyone is really looking forward to the party tomorrow!

Jack: The people who visit the Sage’s Island every year just to attend the party may be disappointed.

Grim: That’s right! They won’t be able to eat the delicious party food!

Crewel: I understand how you must feel……

Sam: What should we do, Headmaster?

Crowley: ……How about the adults have a little meeting?

This is a very difficult issue. We should discuss this carefully, making sure to put our students’ safety first.

> So if we just solve the problem, we can have the party, right?

> If we make the school safe, we can have the party, right?

Crowley: Huh? Oh, yes. That’s correct, but……

Trein: Headmaster, let’s return to the staff room as quickly as possible. We must convene with the other staff……

Crowley: Yes, yes, I’m coming!

*they walk away*

Grim: They left……

What are we gonna do? At this rate we’re not gonna have a party!

Azul: Fufufu……

Yuu said something very interesting.

Grim: Huh? Yuu said something good?

Jade: Didn’t they say something to the Headmaster just now?

Something like…… “If the problem is solved and the school is safe, then we can have the party.”

I believe what Cater said earlier is relevant, too.

That the source of the trouble is neither MagiCam or the ghosts.

Cater: ……Yeah! The true culprits are……

Cater & Vil: The MagiCam Monsters!

Jade: Indeed.

Therefore, all we must do is drive out all the MagiCam Monsters that come.

Then peace will return to the school. Then we can have our party.

Sebek: Hah. Then the solution is simple.

Let’s close the school immediately! And then get rid of all the outsiders!

Leona: ……Seems like the Valley of Thorns is really keen on shunning other people. Is it because your king is so miserable?

Sebek: What did you just say!?

Lilia: Sebek…… It’s pointless to get upset over Leona’s provocations right now.

The guests of honor during Halloween Week are our visitors. The onus is on us to host the party.

There’s no point to hosting a party without any guests to entertain.

Deuce: I also don’t wanna kick out the guests who follow the rules and enjoy themselves safely.

Epel: But how do we tell a MagiCam Monster from a normal guest?

You can’t tell if someone’s good or bad just by looking at them.

There’s no way to kick out only MagiCam Monsters……

Vil: If a MagiCam Monster is someone who won’t listen to us……

There’s a way we can suss them out immediately. You guys should take notes.

Deuce: Notes?

We Have to be Verrrrry Careful

-Main Street-

Deuce: Notes?

Silver: ……Oh! Isn’t that a sign from the Mirror Chamber?

Vil: That’s right. Signs like ours and Diasomnia’s inform the reader of the rules they should follow……

Jade: And those that broke those rules were identified as MagiCam Monsters.

Epel: I see. Then all we’d need to do is drive out those people.

Deuce, Epel, Jack: ……’Aight!! We’ll knock ‘em right outta this school!!!

Idia: No, no, no, there’s a limit to how much you can pretend to be a “security system” to get rid of them.

They aren’t that stupid. And if it got out that we were secretly using magic on guests, we’d be in big trouble.

Cater: Yup. No matter how inconvenient it might be……

We legally can’t attack normal people with magic since we aren’t magic enforcers.

Rather than getting our Halloween Party, we’ll be in hot water from the criticisms levied against the school!

Deuce: Okay…… then we use our fists, right?

Ace: Normal brawls will get the police called on us too, dumbass.

Grim: How do we get rid of the MagiCam Monsters without attacking them……

Is that even possible?

Ace, Deuce, Grim: ……

Hmmmm…………

Floyd: Ahahahahahaha!

Riddle: ……Floyd.

What are you finding so funny about everyone else thinking seriously about this issue?

Floyd: Well, ya’know, it’s ‘cause everyone looks all serious n’ worried n’ stuff……

Why’s that? There’s nothing to think about. It’s so weird.

Jade: Fufufu, Floyd. You shouldn’t laugh at them.

Azul: But you’re laughing too, Jade.

Jade: My apologies.

Vil: ……What is it? I have a bad feeling about this.

Azul: Good grief……

Everyone, please try to remember what you did when you evicted those troublesome guests.

Idia: We didn’t have many opportunities to “evict” them in the first place……

Azul: Oh my, that’s right.

Jade: That may be so, but….. Imagine a rental house, if you will.

Many contracts do not allow the landlord to force the tenant out without good reason.

And in that case…… You have to get them to leave on their own terms.

Riddle: Get them to leave on their own terms……? You mean having them sign a contract with better terms?

Kalim: I get it! You mean you get together and have a heart-to-heart over delicious food?

Ruggie: Ahaaa…… This is why you’re still just children.

You don’t get it even seeing Jade’s hella evil smile? It’s the worst.

It makes you feel so uncomfortable. You can’t help but think, “I don’t wanna be here anymore!”

Azul: Just what I expected of you, Ruggie. That’s it exactly.

Jade: Fear. Being in danger. Discomfort. Unpleasant feelings such as these……

Most people try their best not to experience such feelings.

MagiCam Monsters should be no exception.

For example. …...Let’s play a game of “what if” shall we?

What if at Night Raven College there weren’t any charming ghosts or a cute little Grim……

What if instead there were truly horrifying ghosts?

Could the MagiCam Monsters still say, “Looks cool!” like they do now?

Vil: ……If there were ghosts like that, they’d surely want to leave the school as quickly as possible.

Jade: Of course, there aren’t any horrifying ghosts at our fun and safe academy.

However…… Some people may be prone to having some “misunderstandings.”

It is Halloween Week, after all…… It’s the time of the year where terrifying ghosts roam this world.

And all of us…...

*pan of all the Organization Committee members*

Jade: As you can see, we’re all dressed as ghosts.

Because of that, we have to be verrrrry careful not to cause any unfortunate “misunderstandings.”

Jamil: ……If you ask me, there’s a high probability of such a “misunderstanding” occurring.

Leona: Kuku…… You’re all so shameless. You’re not even trying to hide it at this point.

Idia: Hehe. We’ll have to proceed  very “carefully” indeed.

Grim: Hmmm…… I get it!

Deuce: If I’m getting this right……

Deuce & Grim: ……What are you guys talking about?

Ace: Doh! Don’t just nod like you understand if you don’t.

Cater: In other words, we’ll pretend to be horrifying ghosts……

We’ll scare the MagiCam Monsters so bad, they’ll leave the school!

> Nice idea!	> I get it now……
Cater: Yeah, I thought so too♪	Ace: You didn’t know either!

 

Vil: ……The party is going to be held tomorrow night.

That means we only have tonight to carry out this operation.

Rook: Fufufu…… An evening hunt, is it? I’m itching to put my skills to good use.

Vil: Everyone, listen up. We’re simply……

“Practicing our roles as ghosts to make tomorrow’s Halloween celebration more exciting.”

That’s all.

Lilia: Kufufu. We might accidentally get too excited about our “rehearsal”...... But that’s also a part of youth.

Vil: Exactly. Also…… this secret “rehearsal” is only for us.

Understand?

Epel, Deuce, Jack: Yeah!

*the teachers come back*

Crowley: *sigh*...... The discussion amongst the professors got complicated.

To increase the chance of still holding it even a little……

We’ll make our decision regarding whether or not to hold the Halloween Party by checking out the situation tomorrow morning.

Epel, Deuce, Jack: Okay~!

Kalim & Azul: We understand!

Lilia & Idia: It’s no problem at all~!

Vargas: ……Well, that’s good to hear.

Crewel: You all aren’t going to……

Cater: Ehhhh~ What are you saying, Professor? We’re always obedient children~♪

Jade: Everyone is taking the weight of this situation very seriously.

Vil: We’re just praying that the Halloween Party will be able to be held safely……

Trein: ……

……I’ll say it once more. Wait for our instructions. 

You’re all acting suspiciously.

Crewel: Now, now, Professor Trein. I understand how worried you are about our students, but……

I think you’re looking too deeply here.

Even though they’re usually naughty puppies, they’re the ones looking forward to Halloween more than anymore else.

There’s simply no way they’d act out today, the day before Halloween!

We, as their educators, should deal with the guests today.

And in that case, as for you puppies……

By my grace...... It seems you have free time today.

How about that? You bad boys.

Jade: Fufufu…… Indeed. Thank you for your consideration.

Cater: Ah. It’s almost ten o’clock~ Today’s guests will be here soon, so we should get back to our posts♪

Vil: Then everybody’s on the same page.

……Let’s give our valued guests the best Halloween we possibly can!

Students: Yeah!

No One Knows the Truth

-Botanical Garden-

Woman A: We’re finally here! At the botanical garden~.

That rare flower I saw trending on MagiCam only grows here…… I definitely wanna get a pic of it too!

Man B: Same! Where’s it planted?

Woman A: Oh, isn’t that it!? It’s that pretty flower growing in the back of the flowerbed!

Sign: “Do Not Enter”

Man B: Even if it says not to enter…… The other grass and stuff gets in the way and I can’t get a good pic.

*rustle* *rustle*……

Woman A: Hm? Looks like there’s some people behind a tree.

??? (Riddle): Hey, have you heard the rumors? About Night Raven College’s botanical garden…...

??? (Ace): Huh? I haven’t heard anything. Tell me about it.

Woman A: Huh? A rumor?

??? (Riddle): It’s said it happened centuries ago, but…… Apparently the land the botanical garden is built on is a graveyard where “troublesome people” were buried.

??? (Ace): Troublesome people?

??? (Riddle): People like bothersome magi, outrageous tyrants, cruel knights…… the kinds of awful people that the populace couldn’t tolerate anymore.

People with such shady histories can’t be buried in urban areas with lots of people, so they shipped them off to the remote Island of Sages.

And wouldn’t it be terrible if such horrible people returned from beyond the grave as evil spirits? So those that lived on the island had someone guard the graveyard.

But…… It’s said that the gravekeeper disappeared without a trace one foggy night. 

And the next gravekeeper they chose, and the next, and the next......

All of them disappeared one after another on foggy nights.

Did they all run away? Or were they dragged to the next world by the scoundrels buried here?

……No one knows the truth. 

However, it’s said you can still see skeletons with shovels wandering the botanical garden on foggy nights.

Supposedly, the skeletons are what remains of the gravekeepers that disappeared.

It’s said they still guard the graves, unaware that they themselves are dead.

??? (Ace): What~!? Then why haven’t I ever heard of this before?

??? (Trey): The school is desperately trying to cover it up, but I’ve heard that people go missing at Night Raven College every year.

It’s said that this very botanical garden is the last place those missing people were seen.

That’s why there are so many flowerbeds with “Do Not Enter” signs. They can’t say it outright, of course…...

But it’s probably to keep students out of places where the skeletons appear.

??? (Riddle): …...Even if it’s just a rumor, the fog is rolling in and it’s getting kinda cold. Let’s hurry up and go back.

*rustle* *rustle*……

Woman A: ……Hey. Do you think that story is true?

Man B: Yeah right! It’s just the school’s run-of-the-mill ghost story with skeletons and graveyards and stuff.

Woman A: Oh, you’re right. Like a “Seven Wonders of NRC” type of thing.

Man B: Besides, doesn’t that make this place cooler? A botanical garden with a shady past is super creepy and Halloween-like.

A video of the ghost story is sure to be popular, and might even go viral!

Woman A: That’s true. Let’s go in!

*rustle* *rustle*......

Deuce: ……They went into the flowerbed even though they read the sign!

Cater: MagiCam Monsters confirmed. 

Deuce: Even though they overheard Dorm Leader Rosehearts’s story, they still trampled all over the flowerbed!

Cater: Instead of hesitating, they laughed like they were having fun…… I think we’ll have to put a little more oomph into punishing them.

Alright, places everyone!

Deuce & Heartslabyul Students: Yes, sir!
