Episode 4-13
They Must Be Punished

-Mirror Chamber-

Man A: So this is the Mirror of Darkness. It’s more ordinary than I expected.
Mirror of Darkness: ..................
Woman B: But isn’t the atmosphere inside the Mirror Chamber so mysterious?
After all, people unaffiliated with the school can only come in here once a year, on Halloween!
Oh, but there’s a sign that says photography is prohibited......
But if I don’t take one now, I might never get another chance to, ya’know?
Man A: There’s no one else around, so it’s not like you’ll be bothering anyone. Go for it!
Woman B: You’re right. Let’s take some pictures!

Snap! Snap!

Vil: They started taking pictures in the Mirror Chamber. What a pity. It seems they weren’t “honored guests” after all.
MagiCam Monsters and the paparazzi…… There’s nothing good about people who take pictures without permission.
They don’t care if they inconvenience others as long as they have a story.
Rook: The act of taking a photograph in of itself is a wonderful thing. You can capture the beauty of a moment forever.
I understand very well the desire to collect beautiful sights. However, there is no beauty in violating the rules. 
Epel: Agh! Those people are putting their filthy hands all over the “doors!” Are they trying to pry them open!?
Those are important “doors” that guide the souls of students chosen by the Mirror of Darkness. They can’t be opened without special keys.
That’s what the Headmaster said......
Vil: Bad children who don’t follow the rules must be punished. 
Rook, Epel. Are you ready?
Rook & Epel: Oui! / Yes!

Click, click, click, click......

Man A: !!
H- Hey, that’s......!
Woman B: W- What...... Vil Schoenheit is here!?
Man A: I heard he was a Night Raven College Student...... I didn’t think I’d get to meet him!
Woman B: I might never get the chance to see Vil from this close again…… I’ve gotta get a picture.
Man A: But ‘cause pictures are banned here, if he catches us taking them, he might get angry. Let’s hide behind the door and snap some stealth shots!
Woman B: Okay—.

Snap! Snap!

Man A: (Oh, someone came in behind Vil.)
Woman B: (Wow, he’s super cute……! I haven’t seen him on the web or TV…… maybe he’s an amateur model?)
Man A: (I don’t know, but I’m taking a picture!)
(You rarely get to see such a mysterious pretty-boy!)
Woman B: (Maybe we’ve just discovered a next-gen idol?!?!)
(#VilEncounter #OnceInALifetimePrettyBoy — if I post this up, it’ll definitely go viral.)
Epel: Vil.
Vil: Oh my, Epel. Is dinner prepared?
Epel: Yes, only the finest dishes have been procured. …...Now then, you all! Get over here!
Episode 4-14
Let Us Partake at Once

-Mirror Chamber-

Vil: Oh my, Epel. Is dinner prepared?
Epel: Yes, only the finest dishes have been procured. …...Now then, you all! Get over here!

Snap!

Pomefiore Student A: W- What’s going on!? My legs are moving by themselves……!
Pomefiore Student B: Dorm Leader, what’s the meaning of this!?
Vil: Fufufu…… It took such a long time. You’re finally ready to eat.
Pomefiore Student A: “Eat”...... What are you talking about, Vil-senpai!?
Vil: You’ve all always wanted to know the secret to my beauty, haven’t you?
I’ll tell you, as a parting gift to my poor dinner.
The secret to my beauty is neither expensive cosmetics nor healthy lifestyle choices……
It’s drinking human life-force.
Pomefiore Student B: Wh- What~~!?
Vil: Additionally, I never drink from humans whose life-force is poor. Life-force from the young and healthy is best.
I’ve been doing this for hundreds of years in order to maintain my youth and beauty.
Pomefiore Student A: Y- You……You’re a monster!
Vil: Fufu…… Your frightened faces really do whet the appetite. But you’re wrong. I’m not just a monster.
I’m a monster among monsters……
A vampire!
Man A & Woman B: !?!?!
Man A: (H- He can’t be serious…… right!?)
Woman B: (I- I don’t know. No, it can’t be. Vampires are just a myth, aren’t they……?)
Pomefiore Student B: So the reason you always made us eat well and make healthy lifestyle choices was......!
Pomefiore Students A & B: It was all because…… You were going to eat us!
Vil: Right now, I can hear the blood gushing through your veins. Your whole body is glowing. You’re ripe for the picking.
Now, Epel, let us partake in this meal at once.
Epel: Okay, I’ll dig in.
*CHOMP*!!!!
Pomefiore Student A: UWAH———!
Man A & Woman B: Eh!?
Man A: He’s biting that student’s neck like he’s biting into a baby-back rib……!?
Woman B: Wh- What’s going on......!?
Vil: *sigh*...... Epel, remember to mind your manners while eating.
I’ll give you an example, so be sure to memorize what I do. This is how you eat properly.
*bite*
Pomefiore Student B: Urgh!
Vil: ......*gulp* *gulp*
Woman B: Wait, hold on, Vil is also biting a student!?
Man A: H- He said he was going to drain their life-force, but it’s really true……?
Pomefiore Student B: U- Ughhh…… It’s already over for me……
Being attacked by a monster in this place, having my life ended like this…… What a tragedy…… *slump*!
Man A: (N- No way…… That person stopped moving completely!)
Woman B: (I- It can’t be…… Vil…… the two of them are really....…)
Man A & Woman B: They’re real vampires!?
Vil: Now then, Epel. Are you going to eat elegantly this time?
Epel: Yes, Vil. *bite*
Pomefiore Student A: N- No…… Stop…… UAGH!
Man A: Ah! That student is starting to slump over too!
Vil: You did better this time. Human vitality is essential for us to maintain our own beauty.
Going forward, be sure to practice good manners so as not to waste it. Understand?
Epel: Yes, thank you very much Dorm Leader…… No. Thank you my master, Lord Vil.
Man A: The secret to Vil’s beauty…… it was human life-force all along.
Woman B: W- We have to get out of here. If they find us, we might be dessert……!
Rook: What do we have here? Some bad children looking to run away from the food storehouse.
Man A & Woman B: Eek!
Rook: Oh, my apologies. It seems you two are guests.
But you know Vil’s secret…… I can’t very well just let you return home, now can I?
Man A: P- Please let us go!
Woman B: I won’t tell anyone, I swear!
???: I can’t let you do that.
Man A & Woman B: Vil......!
Vil: I wonder what I should do. I’m always very careful about what I eat……
Epel: It’s not bad to have junk food every once in a while, Lord Vil.
Vil: Epel, are you still hungry?
Epel: Ehehe...... To be honest......
Vil: Goodness. But you’re right. It’s fine to eat something different than usual sometimes.
You should be honored to become the source of my beauty!
Epel: I’ll slurp up your blood till you’re nothing but husks!
Epel & Vil: BOO!
 
Episode 4-15
So Beautiful He Must Be A Vampire

-Mirror Chamber-

Man A: A- AHHHHHH———! I don’t wanna be drained dry~~~!
Woman B: Vil is a real vampire! I’ll delete my entire camera roll! I’ll never take stealth pics ever again so forgive meeeeeeee!

Run, run, run……BANG!

Epel: The MagiCam Monsters sure ran away fast.
Vil: ......Alright. Everyone, you can get up now.
Pomefiore Student A: Dorm Leader, how was our acting?
Pomefiore Student B: To give it a sense of realism, I actually held my breath during the scene where I was making a pained face.
Rook: Très bien! It was a realistic performance that had me on the edge of my seat. I truly regret that I was only able to be a spectator.
Were this a performance at a grand theater, the applause would be likened to thunder!
Pomefiore Students A & B: Vice-Dorm Leader......!
Vil: Rook, don't speak carelessly.
You both were playing the parts of pitiful victims, but each of your lines and actions was delivered too deliberately.
This isn’t a stage-play, so you should’ve planned to act more naturally.
Pomefiore Student A: M- My apologies…… Dorm Leader. 
Pomefiore Student B: The honor of co-starring with the Dorm Leader is too much pressure.
Epel: We succeeded in driving off the MagiCam Monsters, so I don’t think you need to criticize them too harshly…...
Vil: Well, that is true. For an improvised play that was more-or-less completely off the cuff, you all performed well.
Epel: But……Was this really okay to do? You played the lead role in kicking them out.
Vil: Of course it was. In fact, it was refreshing. Those guys have been a thorn in my side for a while now.
Thinking they can just take pictures of me without permission......
Epel: Um……That’s not what I meant.
If rumors spread that you’re a vampire……
Rook: Fufufu. Monsieur Cherry Apple! How kind you are.
Are you perhaps worried on how this will impact Vil’s work?
But worry not! We have already taken matters into our own hands!
Behold. This is what happens when you search for the tag #SoBeautifulHeMustBeAVampire on MagiCam.
Epel: Uwah, there’s so many posts……! This tag is all photos of Vil!
All of them have him looking at the camera with fixed poses…… They’re photos that absolutely couldn’t have been taken in secret.
But what did you mean by “into our own hands”......?
Pomefiore Student B: We Pomefiore students took lots of pictures of the Dorm Leader and posted them to MagiCam with that tag.
Pomefiore Student A: I think there were about 300 in total? And each photo has a huge amount of likes!
Rook: Thanks to their enthusiasm, pictures of Vil in his vampire costume are extraordinarily popular on MagiCam.
Even if someone were to spread the rumor that, “Vil Schoenheit is a real vampire!”……
The only reply will be, “I know, right!”
Vil: Thanks to the popularity of the #SoBeautifulHeMustBeAVampire tag, I’ve already received a number of requests to make appearances at next year’s Halloween event.
This year is a given, but next year’s Halloween will also be mine for the taking.
Epel: Th- That’s good……I think?
Vil: Hmph. I suppose those MagiCam Monsters were good for something after all.
Everyone, thank you for your hard work today. These are the hours real vampires are on the prowl, however……
Don’t stay up too late, my little Pomefiore vampires. Let’s get our beauty sleep.
Now then, let’s have a fantastic party tomorrow.
Happy Halloween!
Epel, Rook, Pomefiore Students: Happy Halloween!
