My Darling’s the Strongest (Scenario Event) // Leonardo(graphic is separate from the event)me: wow i wonder what cool and amazing new content there will be for white day week cybird: we heard from no one that u like reprints that only have new ranking avatars. so heres another reprint that only has new ranking avatars me:…….cybird it’s ok to not make every event have ranking cards. yea i know they make gangbusters versus events without cards, but if it results in less new scenario events overall… that’s not greatanyway, it’s been like 4 months since a new Count scenario event has been released (which is a better track record than several charas) and i wanted to do a longer string of text to test out a keyboard i ordered. yea im very fickle with my output but ehehe what’s new i archive leo events sometimes, so i decided to dredge one up to translate. i actually wanted to do vlad’s first post-main-route event as a sort of celebration for when it would inevitably happen, but then said scenario event appeared and it ended up being an AU. why does this game like AUs so much? the canon universe already pretty farfetched… u literally have dracula and ure telling me u would rather put him in a situation where he would not be dracula. cowardsThis event (first released ~July 2020) was made for the 3rd Anniversary of JP Ikevam later that month. The event was split into two parts, where iirc the first part contained the Count, Arthur, and Mozart. Leo was in the second part with Napo and Isaac. Spoilers under the cut!! Please credit if you take any of it, thenk u (・ω・*) image-heavy!!…The master of the manse, from time to time, starts his conversations with the most unexpected topics. One of those “times”, was today.…[Count]: “—So, I’d like the two of you to go out for the Best Couples’ Contest.”[Leonardo & Kara]: “Huh…?” As soon as we had excused ourselves into his quarters, the Count had said something completely unexpected. Leonardo and I had responded with a confused noise spilling out of our lips.(The “Best Couples’ Contest” is that event where they pick the best couple in Paris, right?) (I wonder why he suddenly decided to say he wants us to go.)Even as the two of us stood bewildered in front of him, the Count’s smile remained, untarnished.Leonardo then heaved a massive sigh…[Leonardo]: “Now, I’m used to you telling me crazy things—"[Leonardo]: “But at the very least, could you give us the entire story, O’ great Count?” The Count began to speak once more—[Count]: “Well—” [Count]: “Last night, I had visited an acquaintance upon them telling me that they had gotten their hands on some good wine.”[Count]: “At one point, they informed me that they were going to hold a contest to determine the best couple.”[Count]: “Then, they asked me if I was acquainted with any prospective couples for it.” Leonardo then took over from Count as if he had read this story before.[Leonardo]: “Then, in your drunken state you selfishly entered me and the little sweetheart to the contest, did you?”(And that means… the Count thinks me and Leonardo would have a chance?)The Count responded to Leonardo’s summation of the events with apparent amusement.[Count]: “I do believe I wasn’t drunk at the time, I’ll have you know?”[Leonardo]: “That’s even worse, then.”[Count]: “Oh my, Leonardo. Is it really all right for you to say that?”[Leonardo]: “Hah?”[Kara]: “gh-…”The Count had turned in my direction— and so Leonardo, as if in pursuit of the gentleman, then turned to face me as well. Their gazes seemed to urge me to confess my true feelings on the matter, and I earnestly comply.[Kara]: “Ah-, I… I just thought it sounded fun.”[Kara]: “And on top of that, I’d be really happy if everyone acknowledged me and Leonardo as the best couple.”(Even though I’d be nervous to stand in front of so many people,)(I’d be able to boast that such a wonderful person is my lover…)(And I also think it’d be a good opportunity to see if I’m able to become a suitable woman for Leonardo.)[Leonardo]: “…” A surprised expression appeared on Leonardo’s face for a moment, before it was replaced with a smile…[Leonardo]: “Shall we partake?”[Kara]: “Huh? Is it okay?” I had blurted out my question, and Leonardo gently patted my head.[Leonardo]: “This situation’s turned into nothing but a good opportunity, so we might as well have some fun and aim to win this thing, yeah?”[Kara]: “gh- Okay…!” Glad that Leonardo was also interested, my voice naturally gained a bounce to it.[Kara]: “But, I wonder how they’re going to determine the best couple?” Muttering this, the Count then handed me the invitation, which had a general outline of the event written inside. Promptly opening it, written was—(The contest is to be a few days from now, and I can look forward to what we’ll be tested on… on the day itself?) The portion I wanted to know about most of all hadn’t been written, and I internally slumped my shoulders. The invitation concluded with a single line— “The key to victory is to have a mind and soul of love towards one another,” (I guess the ‘mind and soul of love’ is supposed to be a hint, but…) [Kara]: “Hmm… With just this, I don’t know what the contest could be about, at all.”[Leonardo]: “Don’t sweat it, sweetheart.”(Huh?) Leonardo brought his face up close to the Count… And as if he had devised a scheme, a mischievous smile had turned the corners of his lips.[Leonardo]: “You’re close with the contest organizer, right? I’m led to believe that they have some sort of hint on ‘em.” [Count]: “Leonardo…?”[Leonardo]: “We may have willingly chose to participate in the contest— but it doesn’t change the reality that it was our lovely Count who dragged us into this in the first place.” [Leonardo]: “So, naturally, you’re gonna cooperate with us, no?”As a result of forcing the Count (against his will) to spill the details, we were able to make a guess on what we’d be doing in the contest. But…most everyone else in this event: (thinking hard on what to do bc they dont kno what the contest is going to cover) leo: fuc it CHEAT…[Leonardo]: “…”(…Leonardo has an awfully complicated look on his face right now.) In my mind, I think over our discussion from a moment ago:The organizer of the couples’ contest appears to have hosted several dance contests as well. To put it plainly, the organizer is both a huge socialite and a huge fan of dances.(So, individuals are called from high society circles to be chosen as the “best couple”, and)(The probability of competing based on our dancing… is high.)[Leonardo]: “Hagh…”[Kara]: “…Hehe.” Seeing Leonardo’s pouting face, I unwittingly laughed. Then—[Leonardo]: “What are you laughing for, sweetheart?”[Kara]: “I just remembered something from back before we became lovers.” The conversation of that day, the day where a weakness of his had been exposed, replayed in my head—…[Leonardo]: “…I can’t dance.” (Huh…?)[Kara]: “You’ve got to be kidding, right…? You can build and play instruments, and yet…”[Kara]: “Is it because you don’t go to many socialite parties to begin with, so you haven’t had many opportunities to dance….?”[Leonardo]: “No, I’ve participated in ‘em the point where I’ve even had a hand in producing those sorts of dazzling venues.”[Kara]: “’Producing’…” (This person really can do anything and everything. No, no, that’s not true…)[Kara]: “Leonardo, the mystery that surrounds you is only getting deeper and deeper.”[Leonardo]: “I avoided having to do it.”[Kara]: “…’Avoid’?”[Leonardo]: “…Try to imagine it. Me, dancing?”[Leonardo]: “It doesn’t suit me, I don’t have the look required for it…” (…What… is this?)[Kara]: “…Hehe, ahaha!”[Leonardo]: “…Hey, sweetheart. What are you laughing for?…(He said the same thing back then.)Unable to hold it in, I continued to giggle…[Leonardo]: “Don’t laugh.”[Kara]: “I think you’re the one smiling here, though?”[Leonardo]: “…I’m just feeling terribly nostalgic right now.” Answering me, his eyes held a gentle light within them as if cherishing those days,[Kara]: “You still hate dancing, I assume?”[Leonardo]: “Even to this day, I find it embarrassing to do. Radiant, cheerful stuff doesn’t mesh with me. But—"(Huh?)The second I wondered if Leonardo was going to start something, he suddenly pulled my waist towards him for an embrace…[Kara]: “Woah, woah-…!” Regaining my senses— Led by Leonardo himself, I properly danced.[Leonardo]: “I’m able to dance like the average person now— and it’s all because you came to keep me company.” While I was still surprised, Leonardo dropped a light kiss on my forehead.[Kara]: “Nn-…”Flustered, I looked up to find a completely composed smile on his face…[Kara]: “…ngh-“ An impulse overwhelming me, I lean my head against his chest.[Kara]: “…Sly as usual.”[Leonardo]: “Hm?”[Kara]: “Even though I thought I had finally found a weakness of yours, you’ll get over that hurdle too pretty soon.”[Kara]: “When you do things like that, you become sly so smoothly, exquisitely.”(When he shows this side of him… I get driven to work even harder than before so I can catch up to him.) While even feeling a frustration from it, I turned my gaze back to Leonardo.[Kara]: “It seems like this world is going to become one where there’s absolutely nothing you can’t do.”[Leonardo]: “…Maybe?”(…Hm?)For a second it felt as if he were pondering over something, a particular emotion washing over his face. But before I could say anything, I was swiftly embraced, and that thought of mine scattered, and vanished.[Kara]: “l- Leonardo?”[Leonardo]: “Hey, look there, sweetheart.”(Huh?)Following Leonardo’s gaze— I could see the dusk dying the sky from a distance away.(Pretty…)The view that he showed me, was beautiful. But, at the same time… my chest was tightened by this sorrow.(Although the scene before our eyes is the same between us, time passes differently between us…) (During moments like this, I feel that difference.)(However— When we became lovers, I had decided that no matter how different we are, I’m going to embrace the present, make the most out of it.)(I’m going to savor even the passing seconds, cherish them… as we live together, as two.)As if to confirm he was really there, I embraced his warmth in return… [Kara]: “Leonardo, I’m looking forward to the contest.”[Leonardo]: “Mhm.” In the vivid sunset, we smiled to each other.…—Time passed, and the night of the contest arrived at last.…(W-Wow…)When we had entered the venue in our formalwear, there were several couples eagerly waiting for the contest to start.(All of the people here have to be participants for the contest, huh. …Somehow, my heart’s pounding.) I took a deep breath to calm myself down, and when I did that— Leonardo, as if to soothe my heart, lightly stroked my hair.[Leonardo]: “Why is it necessary for you to feel all anxious?”[Kara]: “Leonardo?”[Leonardo]: “To the point where there’s just no way we can lose to any couple here— I love you, you know.”[Leonardo]: “—Well, and you?” Inquiring me, his smile was brimming with self-confidence… And caught up in his mood, I smiled cheerfully.[Kara]: “I love you too— to the point where it’s impossible for us lose to anyone…!”[Leonardo]: “Heh… Very nice, then.”[Judge]: “—And so, the contest shall begin now. The means of competition is to be by dance.”(Ah-…!)We look to each other, and Leonardo, extending his hand towards me, says,[Leonardo]: “Kara… You’ll do me the honor of a dance, no…?”PREMIUM END[Kara]: “Yes, I’d be delighted!”(Even though I was so nervous about this until now… Now, I can’t help but just be excited about it.)(I want everyone to quickly feast their eyes on our dancing, and our bond!)Taking his hand, I nestled close to him as an elegant melody began to echo within the dance hall. To become a flower that offsets the man before me, I step forward—…—When the contest had ended without a hitch, the both of us walked along the moonlit Seine as we made our way home. The chilly breeze felt pleasant on my heated skin.[Kara]: “We really were able to win!” (I was able to prove my bond with Leonardo to all of Paris… I’m so happy that I can’t stop a smile from showing on my face.)[Leonardo]: “I did say we wouldn’t lose to anyone, didn’t I?”[Leonardo]: “But, well, to think… the winning prize was a year’s supply of wine of all things. ‘Guess sensuality and allure are as good as goddamn useless to them.”he’s trying to say that he doesn’t like the prize cuz it isn’t very sensual/sexy (suppose he imagined a prize for a lovers’ contest would be more along those lines). even Arthur in the epilogue is like “…thought the prize for a best couples’ contest would be more special”….[Kara]: Hehe, it’s a nice prize, isn’t it? Let’s drink it with everyone else in the manse.”[Leonardo]: “If you’re satisfied with it, that’s good, I suppose.” As he spoke, Leonardo looked to be the same as usual, but his eyes reflected some kind of joy from within.(I’m glad that this will become a lovely memory I’ll have about him.)(…But, even then) The very sight of Leonardo of when I had danced with him in the dance hall, wouldn’t leave my head.[Kara]: “Your dancing was really, really stunning.”[Kara]: “As I had always thought… you’re the strongest one around.”[Leonardo]: “What’s all this about, hmm?”i probably should’ve bothered explaining it last year since i used the title “My Darling’s the Strongest” for the other translation but uh might as well do it now that it’s explicitly used in the story so by “strongest”, it doesn’t necessarily mean physical strength (though it can be). It’s “strongest” as in a form of “mightiest” or “most powerful”, kind of like when someone says “my baseball team is the strongest in the league”, [Kara]: “I just think that you’re the mightiest lover as there’s nothing you can’t do.” Carried away by the thrill of victory, I professed my thoughts. In doing so Leonardo’s brows lowered, and a bit of a troubled smile graced his lips.[Leonardo]: “If I’m able to put some effort into it, then I guess there’s really nothing I can’t do. But…”[Leonardo]: “There is something I simply cannot do, no matter how hard I try.”(Huh…?)[Kara]: “Something you can’t do… I can’t imagine such a thing existing.” He was undoubtedly an almighty genius, and was also the type of person willing to confront even his awkward dancing skills head-on.At my murmurs, Leonardo continued as if the topic was no big deal.[Leonardo]: “It exists.”[Leonardo]: “I cannot become an ordinary human.”(gh-…)His words had vanished into the night breeze.I inadvertently stopped in my tracks, and he stopped as well… and the both of us stood still in that one corner.In my current view, the moonlight illuminated his figure as he stood before me.[Leonardo]: “As a pureblood vampire,”[Leonardo]: “I give you much loneliness— A loneliness that, if I were an ordinary human, you would never have to experience.”[Leonardo]: “However, if I went and lamented over every single little detail of that truth, I would be rendered unable to be with you. —Thus from the very beginning, I do not intend to lament either.”[Leonardo]: “I’m going to use as much of my power as I possibly can to grant your wishes, and that’s all.”(Using his power, my wishes…) I recalled the exchange we had a few days ago:…[Kara]: “Ah-, I… I just thought it sounded fun.”[Kara]: “And on top of that, I’d be really happy if everyone acknowledged me and Leonardo as the best couple.”[Leonardo]: “…”…[Kara]: “Did… you say that we should go and try to win the contest… merely because I…” With a smile, Leonardo proceeded to stare intently at me.[Leonardo]: “Well, there’s that, but additionally… I had the same motive as you had.”[Leonardo]: “I also had wanted the both of us to be acknowledged as the best couple.”[Leonardo]: “I wanted news to spread that I had been able to become the man of such a wonderful woman, you know.” (gh- Leonardo…) Leonardo, whenever and wherever, envelops me in his great, unparalleled affection. Roused by the surging love within me, I went to grip his hand. [Kara]: “…Leonardo, I want to be by your side tonight, and all night.”(I want to give him, in return for the love I received from him… those same feelings, that same love.)(I want him… to feel my love as well.)[Leonardo]: “…”[Kara]: “gh- Ah-!”I was suddenly yanked towards him; and almost stumbling over my feet, it had closed the distance between us. Bringing his lips to my ear, he whispered:[Leonardo]: “What a coincidence. I was just thinking the same thing.”…—As soon as we entered his room, we melded, deeply kissing each other.[Leonardo]: “…Hah-, Kara…” He called my name with a wet, heady timbre between kisses, the sensuality of it making me go lightheaded. Crowded atop the bed, he pried my lips open with his finger…[Leonardo]: “Thinking about it, I haven’t received a reward from you yet.”[Kara]: “’Reward’…?”[Leonardo]: “When I’m feeling, touching you like this…I know that you’re not so dumb to be oblivious to what I want?”[Kara]: “ngh-…” Taking a guess on what he desired from me, I slowly brought my face closer to his.[Leonardo]: “Good girl. Come on— Try to turn me on with a kiss?”FINyes the event really stops here before the epilogue teaser. cybird when a sexi scene is about to start:since this was a glorified keyboard test, this is mostly a one-off… so don’t expect leo translations from me otherwise ahahu know, it’s always weird to me that leo’s stuff is always very sorrowful bc of the vast diff in lifespan, humans vs. vampires thing. like, does he not plan to turn her into a vampire? the wedding stuff makes it sound like they’d like to be together forever but they still don’t really like to broach the topic itself……… kinda sus given that the Count’s stuff gets several mentions of biting in events and vlad clearly doesn’t mind biting whenever (and is just waiting for her to give him the go-ahead). ive seen some ppl talk about how maybe leo likes her because she’s human (both as in being a literal human and the figurative idea of being “human”) and honestly……… it is kinda messed up to think about, but i can see it LOL now im not saying the other pureblood x mc relationships are super healthy but that’s a convo for another timewell at least these guys don’t have to ask someone for vampire-turning assistance. im imagining one of the other charas having to ask the Count to bite mc akin to how teenagers have to ask their parents to drive them and their friends around to do stuff…….. who wants to relive that nightmarealso sorry if like leo’s voice doesn’t match up with w/e the official engl localization does. ive literally never played an engl cybird game in my life, so it’s a crime of ignorance i swear. tho imo if they’re not making him sound like a rascal… that’s very lame, im not gonna liethe epilogue is obviously not available for purchase rn, but please buy it and/or support the game with purchases when you can!!As always, thanks for reading!(gif source) -- source link
