You dirty vampires!
Amazing. They really are trying to take over the world.
Enough of your screwin' around!
It's high time you were punished!
Out of my way!
Ritsuka!
"Opera Ball of Endings and Beginnings"
No! Let me go! Ow!
Lord Nesta!
You brat!
Cease this insolence!
No!
Lord Nesta, the moon.
Prepare for the rite.
No! Let me go!
May the dazzling ecstasy intoxicate you.
No!
All according to my master's will.
Filthy mongrel!
Wait!
Ritsuka, it's okay.
Lindo!
Stay out of this! That's Lord Nesta's property!
I won't let you touch her!
Who, you? Some mish-mash dhampir?
Take care of her.
Uh-huh.
I...
Don't do anything dangerous.
Thank goodness...
Rem?
When this is all over, there's something I want to tell you.
I will protect you!
By the sacred Name, obey me.
O ye who lurk in darkness, begone from here!
Keep those pitiful claws off me!
You ingrate!
You'd defy Lord Nesta, the father who so graciously shared his blood?
I have no father!
You fool! You'll be throwing yourself at Lord Nesta's feet before long!
No one can resist his charms.
So just stop. Stop your silly battle.
Now who's the fool?
I'll never forgive anyone who'd harm Ritsuka!
Just how stupid are you? A dhampir's a dhampir, after all!
Die!
Dammit...
Where'd that come from?!
Begone from here forevermore!
Lord... Nesta...
My all...
Such incompetence.
My son--My beloved son...
Now you try that? Give me a br--
Do you have any idea how I've longed to see you?
How deeply I've cared for you?
No... you wouldn't.
That was true love. The beautiful, gentle human girl... Marta.
Poor Marta, whose kindness caused her heartbreak.
And you, the young son who adored her.
I wanted to live with you both-- All three of us, a loving family.
All three... a loving family...
Yes... and I desire the forbidden grimoire
in order to make that dream a reality.
We couldn't live together as a family
with those devils ruling the dark realm.
If I can obtain the grimoire, the devils will be destroyed--
And Marta will be revived!
Now...
Come, my beloved son!
Son...
Lindo!
My one and only son, blood of my blood!
No, Lindo! He's lying!
Don't listen to him!
Fight alongside your father. You hate the devils, too, don't you?
Come, my son!
I never had a father! Never!
Mom...
Lindo!
Ritsuka!
So the exorcist wound up stealing our moment to shine.
Ah, once in a while won't hurt.
It gave me chills!
What is it, Rem?
A mere dhampir
could never hope to kill the likes of me...
But how?
Pierce the vampire king's heart and he'll die writhing in agony.
He's hidden it.
His heart?
They may be good-for-nothing bloodsuckers,
but they say their long-lived progenitors possessed a certain special ability.
Where is it?!
As if the likes of you could ever find it!
Ritsuka!
Rem?
It's no use.
The forbidden grimoire is mine! Yes--
Along with this world and everything in it!
What a pity that you should lose your lives
before laying eyes on my kingdom!
Grimoire... Grimoire...
Grimoire!
Everything changed because of that grimoire.
All because of the grimoire sleeping inside me... The grimoire...
No. No, I'm sick of it!
Sick of people hurting others... and people getting hurt...
Sick of going along with my cruel destiny instead of defying it...
That does it: I'm going to choose my own destiny!
Ritsuka?
And I... I'll protect them all!
Azuna...
A vampire who goes on surviving in darkness,
unable to face death as a human...
That's enough. It's over.
Go back to being human... and sleep.
Sleep in peace.
Ritsuka!
Ritsuka? Ritsuka? Ritsuka!
Rem...
I don't ever want to let you go again.
I've never seen him like this.
Hmph.
Aw, the grimoire's disappeared.
So has its scent, almost.
We've got time.
We just need to wait another 615 years.
And for my master, Lord Maksis...
I'll have to search for something else, I suppose.
Our fate may have been sealed from the moment we met.
The stirring in my heart every time we met...
I didn't even know what to call it.
But...
Now to tell you what I said I would:
I love you.
I... I love you, too.
With the grimoire gone, I have no reason to remain in this world.
Come with me.
Live with me.

Welcome back, Lord Maksis.
It's a secret you can't tell anyone
Wonth gir sliv edhti wecnad
Wonth gir
Cracking a smile only at the witching hour
Spreading rumors sotto voce
You knocked on the door
Without looking behind you
With all these mysteries, impossible to solve
You stopped cold, weak in the knees
It hacks everything
The curse of love
The curse--and you
If you're confused about the touch on your skin
We just can't be transparent
Soon (soon)
Won't you take this hand?
Mademoiselle, mademoiselle: I'll make you happy
This night will never come again
So let us swear to one another
The black clown singing of love at the tip of the moon
Obscuring the sky
Casting a spell with a bewitching fever
