Ayato Sakamaki
That night, Richter visited the mansion for the first time in a while. Never before I would have thought that the man whose face I never wanted to see again, was the one I would end up choosing as my guardian. My brothers, even the Mukami guys… they looked very surprised to run into his face as well, not that I cared though.
In any case, I just didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes I already made in this world. But thanks to her I’ve already become a different person from back then.
According to Richter’s report, the demon world itself seems to gain stability. He also mentioned that Eden’s restoration has become slightly better and that the familiars of those Mukami guys have come to help. Holy shit, after hearing all of this I couldn’t help but let my inner self get overwhelmed by relief.
As Richter finished his report, he immediately left the mansion and I could finally return to my own room. And just as I opened the door I saw her sitting by the window, reading a book as she slowly raised her face.
“Hm… ? Is Richter-san already back on his way home? Don’t you usually have a longer talk with one another… ?”
As she spoke to me, I approached her and started to smell a calming scent. As I grabbed her hand to move her up from the chair, I couldn’t help but immediately hug her afterwards. The book she was holding in her hand instantly fell onto the floor with a thud.
“Just outta curiosity… but did you happen to take a bath while I was gone?”
She nodded to my question and I started to smile at her in response.
“Heh, so you’ve prepared yourself already? If that’s so, then…”
As soon as I spoke those words, I pushed her down onto the bed next to me. Blocking her flustered face from uttering something, I laid my hand over her lips to keep them closed.
While I started kissing her continuously in various spots of her neck, I disarranged her negligee slightly. And like usually, when my face is already close to her neckline, I might as well get a bit of her luxurious blood out of her dainty neck. Just when I was about to get to it, she stiffened up a little. Noticing this, I suddenly got an idea and gently licked over her neck.
“Kya!!”
She was very surprised by my action and therefore let out a small scream. I guess it was pretty unexpected after all.
“Kuku… did you think I was about to suck your blood? You fell for it, didn’t you?”
Right after I said that, I teasingly started licking her ear this time. She lets out another small scream and turns around as if I had just tickled her. I was intrigued by her unusual reaction, which is why I started to really tickle her body this time.
She busted out laughing begging me to stop while she tried to escape from my tickling attack which just made me wanna tickle her even more. If I was already given the choice I might as well do it as thoroughly as possible.
“I’m not letting you go! At least not until I’m satisfied…”
She continued to roll around the bed for a while, trying to resist until she rapidly became obedient and calmed down. “Hm? What’s going on? Surrendering? How boring…”
Just as I was about to move my hands from her, she unexpectedly turned the situation around. “Wha–! What are… hahahaha!”
Of all the things, I didn’t expect her to take advantage of me taking off my hands for a second to gimme a tickle counterattack. Seeing me burst into laughter made her laugh as well. “Stop already, will you!? Hahah! Shit! Chichinashi, move… !”
Receiving even the slightest bit of retribution I immediately became serious again and got my revenge through tickling her body. She tried with all her power to go up against me and return the punishment .
And, just for a brief period I was sure the laughter of both of us was echoing through more than just the room. To be honest, it would’ve been easy for me to get out of this situation and resist her. And yet, the reason why I go along with such a trivial battle is because I would give anything to keep seeing her carefree smile, even if it’s only for a bit longer. The fact that we can both laugh together like this makes me feel happy and maybe that’s because I’ve grown a little since then.
Laito Sakamaki
I’ve returned to the human world in order to finish my school life as a senior high student. I never thought I would have to return here every day again. “Haa… I’m sick of reading this, I wish those tests would finally disappear for good.” While I started to comb my hair out of boredom, my girlfriend who’s sitting next to me continued studying in silence until she replied that it cannot be helped and I should continue reading.
“Come on, Bitch-chan. No need to be such a serious and straight-laced person, no?” As I said those words, I gently put my arm around her back and started to lightly embrace her waist. Even though I saw a faint blush on her face, she reminds me that she is busy studying right now.
“I know that.” But, despite that, I started nibbling on her ear. Perhaps this has always been my normal life no matter to what extent.
To even think that I begged for death because it was unbearable to keep on having these powers in my state… but that is beyond doubt the absolute truth and I totally understand that I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the power of the World Tree. The only difference from me back then and now is that I am finally able to accept that reality. During that time, my power was too strong for me to handle, I wasn’t able to come to grasp that reality. And even so, I deserved a second chance. Ironically, due to her help I could finally accept the distortion within me and become more straightforward at the end. I held up my face close to her chest in a way of telling that I love her.
“This is all thanks to you that I can exist like this.” However, she doesn’t reply to me. “Are you agreeing with me if you’re staying silent like this?”
It was a calm sigh that she returned to me that made me understand the answer to my question.
“I guess I was too reckless, no?” She showed a bitter smile as I examined her expression. As I observed her tiny body calmly from top to bottom I was shaken by a sudden feeling of satisfaction. And yet there is no way to help the fact that this world is slowly going to destroy itself. I have been told that alongside my resurrection, the world tree has been new-born but started to shed its leaves ever since. Even though it’s all said and done this is happening just as he wished for. He knew right from the start that I wasn’t ever capable of being the vampire king.
“No matter how far I move on with my life, I will always be right in the palm of his hands.” With those words escaping my mouth, I closed my eyes. It’s still unimaginable to me that I used to be a different person before, but… all I needed in the end is someone like her to accept me as I am. That is because I am Adam and she is Eve. – And no matter what will become of this world, I’m prepared for it.

Laito Sakamaki LOST EDEN Dark Prologue
Translator's note:
Hello! This is my first time ever translating a game from Japanese to English, none the less a Diabolik Lovers game, but I hope to provide you all that read coherent and understandable translations! My native and only fluent language is English, but I have been learning Japanese for over 13 years now and have tons of experience using the language both online and in person. My Japanese is NOT perfect, so don't expect native speaker level translations. I will make mistakes, and I encourage those who catch them to call them out so I may improve! I have decided to translate all of Laito's Lost Eden route (besides the three endings and heaven scenarios as those are translated by other users/blogs) as I could not find any of the Dark through Ecstasy parts of his route translated into English. Feel free to use this as a base for translating into other languages, just please tag and credit me if you do!
Without further ado, the translation resides below the cut! I hope you all enjoy!~ (๑•ᴗ•๑)
---------------------------------------
-----------------------------
Yui's Monologue:
The one who inherited the great power was none other than Laito-kun.
On that day, at Karlheinz-san's castle, Eden.
Without warning, Laito-kun had inherited the power.
Why was it necessary to hand over the power to Laito-kun ... ...
I still cannot gauge Karlheinz-san's true intentions.
But in any case, the reality is that it has been handed over.
At that time -- , when Karlheinz-san disappeared into the distance between the hours at the end of handing over his power ((I had some difficulty translating this sentence)) the words that Laito-kun groaned still haunt my ears.
-----------------------------
*Flashback to Dark Fate*
Place: Eden - Room of Time
Laito: Ngh ... ... Why ... ... Just why!?
Why ... ... kgh ... ... !
-- Why, was it me?
... ... Tell me ... ... ?
Yui: (... ... Laito-kun ... ...)
-----------------------------
Yui's Monologue:
I was in no position to speak up. The only thing I can do is hold my breath and be by his side.
-- Only that.
Laito-kun was stunned and looked up at the sky, without even smelling* ((couldn't make that word out, 臭)) the conflict in his heart, he just silently fell to his knees.
-----------------------------
Place: Sakamaki Living Room
Yui: (I wonder if Karlheinz-san would have said something to Laito-kun ... ...)
(Without saying a thing, he just handed over the power and disappeared ... ...)
(Karlheinz-san ... ... I don't think you didn't know anything about Laito-kun's anguish until just now.)
(If that's the case ... ... That's just too cruel ... ... I feel sorry for Laito-kun.)
(Even though, Laito-kun hated Karlheinz-san terribly ... ...)
(Moreover, he would never have thought that he would inherit the power ... ...)
(Even as Laito-kun, how should he accept it ... ... It's only natural that he's troubled.)
(Actually ... ... Like this --)
Laito: Bitch-chan~ ♪
*Rustling noise*
Yui: Ah!?
Laito: What happened? You're spacing out. Are you thinking about something? How lewd~
Yui: Lewd!? Wh-why did you come to that conclusion?
Laito: Well, it's been decided that you're thinking about naughty things, right? Nfu~
Yui: Wha- ... ... I'm not thinking those kinds of things at all!
Laito: The fact that you're desperately trying to deny it is making you more and more suspicious you know.
Speaking of which, just what were you thinking of ... ... Tell it to me?
Yui: Th ... .. That's --
(Even if he says that ... ... If I honestly tell him, he'll just be hurt ... ... However, it would be like adding salt to his wounds ... ...)
Laito: Bitch-chaaan~?
Yui: That's ... ... I just thought about how I'm scared. Because that's only natural, isn't it? A stranger might be coming in and out of the house after all ... ...
Laito: Scared, huh ... ...
Yui: Aren't you scared Laito-kun?
Laito: Hmmmm ... ... It's not that I'm scared? But rather, it doesn't matter to me.
To be honest, I'm not too scared or surprised by what happened.
It's boring to be frightened and nervous about such things. Can't we just enjoy our days? Nfu~
Reiji: You're far too optimistic ... ... Now that the demon world is in chaos, no matter how much the human world is --
Subaru: Demons of other races may be after you ya know!?
Laito: -- I don't mind, if they want to come that's fine by me.
Like I said earlier, I don't care what happens.
Reiji: ... ...
Subaru: You bastard ... ... !
Laito: If you two are so worried, why don't you do something about it then?
It has nothing to do with me, so go ahead and do as you please?
I won't stop you.
Reiji: ... ... Is that so.
Subaru: ... ... Tch.
Yui: ... ...
(Laito-kun ... ... It's like he's even more irresponsible than before ... ...)
(He does anything as long as it's fun, and doesn't think about the small or difficult things ... ... No, he doesn't even TRY to think about them.)
(He still can't seem to accept it ... ... His powers, that is ... ...)
(That's why he's thinking about running away and giving up ... ...)
Kanato: Well, I wouldn't worry about it for now.
If Laito isn't worried, then I'm fine with that.
Ayato: -- Right. Then, I have some business to take care of so, I'm off.
Shu: *yawn* ... ... I'm sleepy.
*He walks off*
Laito: Welp. That's how it is~
*He walks off as well*
Subaru: Geez, that guy and the next ... ... ! I don't know what happened! ((Had trouble translating that last line, could be along the lines of "I don't care what happens anymore"))
Reiji: ... ... ... ...
Yui: ... ... ... ...
(I wonder if everyone also understands that ... ... It feels as if they're not even daring to interfere ... ...)
(I'd like to say it's the same as usual however ... ... It feels as if I'm touching on a sensitive topic.)
(I know that talking about the power hurts Laito-kun ... ...)
(Ahh, but it's the same for me ... ... *sigh* ... ...)
(It's difficult ... ... What should I do?)
(What should I do, to make the usual Laito-kun ... ... No, in a way, is the current Laito-kun the usual one?)
(He put a door on his heart and didn't show his true feelings to people ... ... Just like that time ... ...)
(It's kind of sad. I felt like I finally got a little closer to Laito-kun's true feelings.)
( -- Once again, I've taken another step backwards.)
Place: Yui's Bedroom
Yui: *Sigh* ... ...
(I've been thinking about it all the time lately, and it's kind of depressing. )
(But, Laito-kun must be in much more pain than I am.)
Laito: Bitch-chan ... ... ♪
Yui: Ah!? Y-You surprised me ... ...
Laito: Nfu. I was sure you were probably still looking uneasy, looks like I was right.
Yui: Eh? Is, is that so ... .. Is it showing on my face?
Laito: It is, it is. Clearly, you know?
You know you can't hide anything from me? I know everything about you after all ... .. Nfu.
Yui: ... ... Everything ... ...
Laito: ... ... Hm? Is something wrong?
Yui: No, it's nothing ... ...
(Laito-kun knows everything about me, yet I don't know anything about Laito-kun at all.)
(I just thought that was a little sad ... ...)
(I'm always so lighthearted, but even now it seems like I'm worried.)
Laito: Hmmmm. This seems to be serious.
Yui: Eh? Ah ... ... S-sorry.
Laito: If you're that worried about the intruder, let's do this.
How about we catch the intruder together?
Yui: Eh?
Laito: If we do that, then you won't make that face anymore, right?
Yui: Th-that's ... ...
Laito: Alright! It's been decided, time to set out and search the mansion~!
Yui: Eh!? Wai ... ... Wait a second!
Laito: What is it?
Yui: That's ... ... Um ... ... I was thinking that perhaps we shouldn't do anything to provoke the intruder ... ...
Laito: Ehh-
Yui: We don't know who they are or what their aim is after all ... ...
Laito: If that's the case, isn't it even better to find them as quickly as we can?
Yui: But ... ...
Laito: Nfufufu~ ... ...
Yui: Wh-what?
Laito: You're scared aren't you? That's why you're complaining so much.
Yui: That's --
Laito: That's why, I have to go!
Yui: Why is that!?
Laito: Listen up? Bitch-chan. For humans, fear is what leads to the greatest pleasure.
Think of life threatening life and death situations.
Your heart would be pounding, right? That pounding is similar to the pounding of ecstasy. Nfu~
-- And with that said ... ... Off we go~ ♪
Yui: (I'm just worried about what's going on with Laito-kun ... ... It's not even that I'm all that scared ... ...)
(But rather, I'm worried that Laito-kun will break down someday after he's been doing so well ... ...)
Place: Sakamaki Game Room
Laito: Hmmm. Doesn't look like they're here either ... ...
Yui: Let's stop now. It's okay to scare me if that's what you want ... ...
Laito: *Sigh* ... ...
Yui: Laito-kun?
Laito: Y'know, I really don't like it.
Yui: Eh ... ... ?
Laito: That attitude of yours. Do you think you'll be saved even if something attacks?
Yui: That's not what I meant ... ...
Laito: Let me tell you then, even if you were attacked or raped, I still won't interfere y'know?
Yui: What ... ... !?
Laito: If you know me, don't you think so as well?
You can't imitate such a delicious situation by yourself right? Mmhahaha ... ...
You're attacked by a guy that you don't even know ... ... And I'll be sitting back watching helplessly.
Just thinking about it ... ... Haaa, it looks like it'd work out somehow ... ...
Yui: ... ...
Laito: At the very least, be prepared to be attacked by someone.
*He walks off*
Yui: (... ... , I have to be careful.)
Place: Sakamaki Dungeon
Yui: Alright, let's go back over to this side then ... ... ? I haven't really been looking for this much, so I wonder if I ran away* ((*Had trouble translating this line >_<))
Laito: Is that so ... ...
Yui: That's right ... ..
Laito: Hmmmm. Ah, I know! Maybe I shouldn't be here with you!
Yui: Eh?
Laito: That's surely it! If I leave you all alone, they'll be drawn out to you won't they?
Yui: I don't think so though? 'Cus it isn't even decided that the intruder's goal is me in the first place ... ...
Laito: You think so? I have a feeling that the only reason someone would come and go from this mansion is for you?
Yui: Th-, that's not true. Even now, Laito-kun is --
(-- , It was better not to say too much bout the power.)
Laito: I'm what?
Yui: ... ...
Laito: Hey, Bitch-chan seems to think that I may be the intruder's target ... ... Why is that?
Yui: (Ah ... ... Is he ... ... Asking me this on purpose ... ... ?)
... ... That's ... ... Well ... ...
Laito: ... ...
Yui: I know that Laito-kun ... ... Isn't accepting of it. But ... ... To the current Laito-kun --
Laito: Shut up.
Yui: Ah ... ... !
*He locks Yui in the cell*
Yui: Eh!? Wa, wait, Laito-kun!?
Open up!!
*Cell bars clang*
Laito: -- Uncute children have to be punished plenty y'know.
Yui: Laito-kun!?
Laito: Nfu~
Yui: L-Laito-kun!! Open up!
Laito: What ever should I do~?
Yui: Please!
Laito: Hmmm. Don't say it like that. You have to say it more glamorously. Take off your clothes.
If you do, perhaps I'll open it for you.
Yui: Wha! Th-there's no way I can do that!?
Laito: Is that so? That's a shame. I won't open it then.
*He turns off the lights*
Yui: Ah!?
Laito: Well then, enjoy your punishment okay? Bitch-chaan~
*He walks away*
Yui: (He left ... ... *sigh* ... ... Doing something like this, you're terrible Laito-kun ... ...)
(I wonder why Laito-kun wants ... ... Me and everyone else ... ...)
(I'm supposed to be the closest to him, but it feels like I'm so far away ... ...)
(I can't see Laito-kun's feelings, it's so lonely.)
*Footsteps approaching*
Yui: ... ... Hm?
(Did Laito-kun come back? But, it's far too early for that ... ..)
(I thought he wouldn't return for the time being.)
(Could it be, the intruder?)
... ...
(What should I do ... ... !?)
*Lights turn on*
Yui: !!
???: Chichinashi!? What are you doing here?
Yui: Eh? A-Ayato-kun ... ... !?
Ayato: So it's you, I thought I smelled a human ... ... Geez, I'm not surprised.
I mean, what are you doing in a place like this? Playing hide and seek?
Yui: It's not like that ... ...
Ayato: Ahh -- ... ... Well then, did you get thrown in by Laito?
Yui: Ah ... ... Actually, yeah.
Ayato: Well, I can only think so since he'd do this kind of thing.
*Rattling sound*
Ayato: Here. I unlocked it.
*Cell door unlocks and opens*
Yui: Thank you ... ...
Ayato: Geez, the hell is that pervert thinking? After all, he still had the old man's *force right?
((* The word used here was 件根 which means "root of the matter" but I was unsure how to translate this to make sense in English.))
Yui: ... ... I think that's probably the case. Because he was forcibly pushing his power without knowing it.
Ayato: Even so, **** would be bad. He can't help what he has inherited. ((* The word in this spot was "オウジョーギワ" but I could not for the LIFE of me figure out what this means TT_TT))
-- Well, it can't be helped that he can't help but think of that guy ... ...
He must have thought that among all of the brothers, he was the furthest from the position of successor.
Yui: Right ... ...
(After all, Ayato-kun also has some things he's been thinking about. )
Besides that, where have you been? I was surprised to see Ayato-kun in a place like this.
Ayato: Ahh ... .. That's, 'cus it's a little closer to the castle.
Yui: The demon world castle?
Ayato: I heard from my familiar that the demon world is in a disturbing state. I'm going to check it out a little.
Yui: Ayato-kun is?
Ayato: What is it? Is it really that strange that I want to check on the situation?
Yui: N-no. It's nothing like that.
Ayato: ... ... It's because he hasn't done anything.
Yui: Eh?
Ayato: That's why I'm going to go instead of Laito. In the first place. isn't that what the owner should be doing?
At least, I'm his older brother.
Yui: I see ... ...
Ayato: Looking like this, I'm unexpectedly sorry.
Yui: Eh? You're unexpectedly sorry you say?
Ayato: ... ... I let him take over the trouble again.
Yui: Ayato-kun ... ...
Ayato: I think that even Kanato feels a little like that as well.
Yui: Yeah ... ... I agree. I'm sure he does.
(About the past ... ... It seems to be weighing on everyone's minds still.)
(Of course that's right. It's decided that such things can't be wiped out so easily.)
(Even if they are not the direct victims, Ayato-kun and Kanato-kun are also involved in this all.)
Ayato: I wonder why the old man chose that guy over everyone else ... ... Is it because of harassment?
It's only natural that Laito can't accept it.
The reason why that old hag did this to Laito was originally because of the old bastard.
Now that I know that ... ... The power of the old bastard won't be recognized no matter what.
Yui: Yeah, that's right ... ...
Ayato: It looks like you're getting caught up in it too. Really, it's a nuisance.
But even if you run away, nothing will --
???: Aaaaaaahhhhh !!!!
*Footsteps running towards them*
Yui: ... ... !?
Ayato: Hnm? It's ... ... It's just you. Don't startle me like that!!
Laito: Hold on, why is Ayato-kun here!?
Bitch-chan was in the middle of being punished by being left alone and scared! Now it's lost all meaning!
Ayato: Haa ... ... Geez, you're really ... ... Doing something so stupid at a time like this!
Someone who we don't know has infiltrated the mansion and we still don't even know where they are!? Don't you understand that?
Laito: Nfu. Oh no, Ayato-kun. Why have you suddenly gone all serious?
Us brothers have to be silly, make fun out of it, and get through it just because it's a time like this, right?
-- Ayato-kun should be good at pretending not to notice. What happened all of a sudden?
Yui: Laito-kun ... ... ! That way of saying it is ... ...
Ayato: Kgh ... ... You bastard ... ...
*Ayato grabs Laito*
I pretended not to see it, and it made me sick ... ... I can't miss it this time!
Laito: Ugh ... ... Ngh ... ...
Ayato: You don't understand, do you? If we leave things as they are, what will become of the vampires?
You and I might be fine but --
*Laito pushes Ayato away*
Laito: Why?
Ayato: ... ... Ah!?
Laito: Why are you telling me.
Ayato: That's --
Yui: (Oh no, he isn't listening ... ...)
That's because ... ... Laito-kun has more power than anyone else.
You're Karlheinz-san's heir ... ... And the head of the Sakamaki family.
Ayato: Chichinashi ... ... !
Yui: You may want to deny it but ... ...
Laito: -- Ahh, that's enough. I understand.
Yui: ... ... Laito-kun!?
Laito: Just because I have power, doesn't mean I have responsibility. That's a selfish push on your part.
I've said it before right? No matter what happens to the demon world, no matter what happens to the vampires ... ...
No matter what happens to me, I really don't care.
*Laito walks away*
Yui: Laito-kun ... ... !
*Ayato grabs Yui*
Ayato: Hey, stop it.
Yui: But ... ...
Ayato: He's so angry right now that he can't handle it. You know that too, don't you?
Yui: ... ... Yeah ... ...
Ayato: Well, I'm sure he'll return back to normal in no time. Try not to worry too much.
Yui: Yeah. Thanks ... ...
(Ahh, I really went and said too much ... ...)
(I feel like Laito-kun is starting to get farther and farther away ... ...)
(And it's probably all my fault ... ...)
Place: Sakamaki Balcony
Place: Sakamaki Balcony
Laito: *Sigh* ... ...
Ahh, geez ... ... Everything and anything ... ... It would be great if it all broke ... ...
That's right, the me I am now can do just that.
Should I start breaking everything now?
