158th Night: Flower of Evil
Tyki: Hey there, Sheryl.
Sheryl: Welcome.
Road: Duke Millennium~!♡
Earl: Mmf! / Hello there, Road...
Servant: Ojou-sama!
Sheryl: Looking dashing as ever, eh, little brother?♥
Tyki: You're kind of creeping me out there, Sheryl-niisan.

2
Sheryl: Good work at the ball yesterday.
Tyki: Jobs like that tire me out more than anything...
Sheryl: But it's important to have that kind of influence in noble circles. // Duke Millennium, might I suggest you have Tyki get married one of these days? / I'm sure he'd be able to take his pick of the eligible young noble girls.
Earl: If he has no objections, then neither would I.
Tyki: You must be joking.
Sheryl: Ah, but a life like this can be satisfying, you know!

3
Sheryl: A frail and reserved wife... / A white dog... // A beautiful garden... // A wonderful daughter...
Road: Father~~~~~~!
Sheryl: Ah, I can't keep this up... // Being a father is great! / I'm so~~ glad I got married~! // [aside]Road's so cute~ so cute~ so cute~[/aside]
Tyki: You only got married so you could adopt Road, didn't you.
[TN: Can't blame him.]

4
Sheryl: What, are you jealous of me, Tyki? / Don't worry, I still love you too, you dashing thing, you!
Tyki: You really do give me the creeps.
Road: What're you talking about~~~?
Tyki: I was just saying how much I want to cut this irritating hair.
Road: Whaaaaa~?! // No! I like your hair like that! If you cut it, I'll kill you!!
Tyki: Ungh... // ......
[Text: Pain.]
Road: ...Does it still hurt where you got cut by Allen?
Tyki: Worried about me?
Tricia: Now, Road, don't be so rude to your uncle.
Tyki: Don't worry, Tricia, I'm used to it.

5
Tyki: At any rate, Tricia, don't you think you should be retiring to your room? // You look awfully pale.
Sheryl: Yes, he's right, Tricia... I'll look after Road, you go ahead.
Tricia: I'm so sorry, dear... // Well, then, I shall be taking my leave, Duke Millennium. / Please make yourself at home.
Earl: Good night, Tricia.
Sheryl: ...Speaking of "Allen"... // Lulu seemed to be crying rather bitterly, didn't she? // The "egg"... / I hear she recovered it, but it was broken...?
Road: Uh-huh.
Tyki: But you're in the process of creating a new one, aren't you, Duke Millennium. // Are there any problems with the schedule?
Earl: It was only a minor miscalculation. We did manage to recruit plenty of new Skulls. / And the main worry was that the Order would be able to analyse the "egg".

6
Earl: They still believe that the Akuma are nothing more than killing machines. / They have no idea what their evolution truly represents. // I'd like to keep it that way. // If they were to discover the truth, then the possessor of the Heart would learn of it. // And that could very well cause the plan to fail completely. // The Heart-bearer is a clever one... hiding his own identity, whilst always waiting for any sign of weakness from us.
Tyki: The user of the Heart, eh...? / Are you sure he has already awakened?
Earl: The Heart has most certainly awakened. / He is out there breathing happily somewhere in the world right now. // It is precisely because I am certain of this that I am making these sacrifices and sending you after the Generals. / The purpose of it all is to direct the Order's attention towards the Heart.

7
Sheryl: The Exorcists will begin to doubt one another... / ...and the Order will become desperate to find the Heart before we can do the same. // It won't make things easy for the guy who's trying to conceal his identity.
[sFX: drop / drop // drop // drop]
Tyki: What of the Innocence held by Allen Walker and Lenalee Lee?
Earl: I believe we should be careful.
[sFX: drop / drop // drop // drop / drop / drop]
Earl: However... if it is one of them, then uncovering them will not be an easy task.
[sFX: drop // drop / drop]
Earl: The bearer may come up with some kind of camouflage to deceive us, or may even be able to create a fake Heart to lead us astray.
Noah: Duke Millennium... // Duke Millenium, you're putting too much sugar in there...
Earl: We still hold the upper hand.
Sheryl: Indeed... / But the matter with the "Fourteenth" was unexpected... // I'm not familiar with the details, but he must resent us a fair amount, surely?
Road: [aside]he drank it...[/aside]
Earl: And he has joined forces with the Innocence, of all things!

8
Road: The Innocence could have attached itself to Allen because it knew his identity, couldn't it?
[Text: Papa Antenna, activate!]
Sheryl: Road? Did I detect a note of affection in your voice when you said "Allen"?
Tyki: The "Fourteenth", huh...? // I don't know just what happened back then either... / ...but what exactly is he trying to do?
Road: He tried to kill Duke Millennium, you know. // And probably... // He's still trying...
Earl: "Allen Walker". // Ever since the day I realised he was the Musician left by the Fourteenth, I have been having strange dreams.

9
Earl: I find myself wondering... / ...why it was... // ...that I did not kill him upon that night... // Was it coincidence? // Or was it fate? // I awaken before the dream ends... // ...so I know not the answer.

10
Someone: Minister. // Minister Camelot, your signature, please.
Sheryl: Hm? / Oh, yes. // (Dear me, I was spacing out...) // Minister Leslie, if you would.
Leslie: Hmm...
Sheryl: This has taken quite a while, but... // With this, the friendly ties between our countries should be able to continue, Leslie-dono.

11
Sheryl: Your love for your country has left a deep and lasting impression on me.
Leslie: Why, thank you, Camelot-dono. // It makes me, too, so very happy... // ...to be able to protect the peace.
Someone: Minister - !

12
Sheryl: What have you done...?! // To think that you would fire upon me...!
People: Minister Leslie! // N - No!!
Sheryl: So this is how you people wish to handle things...
People: Wait, please! This isn't right! He acted of his own accord...! / We had no intention of -

13
Sheryl: It's too late now... // My subordinate is already dead. // I'm calling off this agreement.
People: Y - / You can't! Please! // Just wait a moment, Camelot-dono...! // We truly have no hostile intentions towards your country...!
Sheryl: I'm afraid that's just not going to work.

14
[Text: The Minister for Foreign Affairs from the country of XXX fired a gun at the signing ceremony; one official was killed. / In response to this gesture, Minister Camelot has seen fit to repeal the cease-fire agreement. // The Xth of Y - Prime Minister Bones made an official declaration of war. / The Nth of Y - XXX have declared war in response.]
Lavi: War again, huh...?
Bookman: (War is a sorrowful thing... // Once they have been ignited, the flames of war burn lives, dreams and bonds to the ground, leaving countless sorrows in their wake. // And as sorrow breeds tragedy...)

15
Bookman: (...Tragedy goes on to breed Akuma.)
Servant: Master, your umbrella...
Earl: No... I wish to enjoy the rain a little. You may go on ahead.
Tyki: (......... / A human, huh... // When you're like that... // ...you really don't seem like the evil man who made the entire world his enemy... / ...Duke Millennium.)
[side text: Secretly, the great tragedies... // ...move onward!!]
