Welcome to Genocide Club. The first rule of Genocide Club is: you do not stay shy about Genocide Club.
With this chapter I’ve now caught up with the raws – there’s nothing left to translate currently. This is mostly because the author hasn’t released any new chapters for about a month though.
There’s nothing I can do about this nor do I have any idea how long it might be until new raws start appearing, so please don’t ask. For now I won’t pick up any other projects so that I can resume translations as soon as the author releases new chapters.
260 – Just who created all this chaos!?
It seems vampire girl has charged into the mansion in a somewhat confused state. Well, okay, whatever. Actually, it’s not okay but, well, this is the vampire girl we’re talking about. From the monitoring done by my clones I have a rough idea what happened anyway.
But, you know? Once the mood progressed to a dubious stage I cut the monitoring, but when they came out there was a new vampire. Peeking in on a love scene is certainly too much so I had cut the monitoring, but I seriously wonder what happened.
For starters, I’ll silence the vampire girl, who is squawking noisily.
「Bleaugh!」
Today we have a beautiful demonstration of a く shape by vampire girl. The moment the boy with her sees that, his eyes open wide.
「How dare you!」
He comes rushing at me. Drawing his sword he attempts to stab me. Ah, vampire girl, I guess you haven’t disciplined your retainer yet huh?
The moment I decided to deal with him properly, a figure suddenly landed between the boy and me. The figure used something like a Judo throwing technique to push the boy down onto the floor, locking his elbow joint. Since he’s a vampire I’m sure he could deliberately break his arm to escape from that, but he’s fresh out of the oven though. I’m sure such an unconventional technique wouldn’t occur to him yet.
「Ugh, let me go!」
「I will not. This is for your sake as well, Waldo-sama. You must not oppose this lady.」
「That voice... No way, Felmina!?」
Ooh, he noticed. That’s correct. The one who’s on top of you is actually your ex-fiancée Felmina-chan.
She’s a pitiful girl who made valiant efforts to try to save the poor boys under the Charm of vampire girl, and on top of being crushed, or rather ignored, she was then cast aside by the fiancé she tried to save. To take care of and support such a girl – I’m super nice! In addition, I’m giving her training and work to do as well – I’m super caring!a, please calm down. Otherwise you will be killed.」
Oh, you think she’s looking at me with fearful eyes? It’s just your imagination. I won’t kill him okay? That kid is technically the child of a big shot noble anyway. Killing him would lead to bothersome stuff. So you don’t need to be so afraid, okay? Really?
「Gahah! Uh, uuhhn. Cough. Goshujin-sama, could you please not kick me every time?」
Ah, vampire girl has revived. She’s wiping away blood that slipped from her mouth with a handkerchief. Don’t mind the little things. It’s not like she’d die anyway.
「By the way goshujin-sama, who is that girl? She seems to be an acquaintance of Waldo though.」
「Eh?」← Felmina
「Eh?」← Waldo
「Eh?」← Me
Oni-kun’s decrees his judgement, vampire girl demurs. Oni-kun immediately overrules. No mercy at all.
「No matter how I look at it, it’s Sophia-san’s fault. In the first place, are you using Charm on people and brainwashing them as a joke? That’s not something you should do to the same people as yourself. It’s an atrocity.」
Scathing criticism, as if despising her utterly. I’m somewhat surprised. Oni-kun has a rather gentle personality after all, so I wouldn’t have expected him to express his emotions in words so strongly. Well, after thinking about it for a bit I guess I can understand. When all’s said and done, oni-kun is the Ruler of Wrath. Deep in his heart dwells an endless rage. Instead, his gentle everyday guise should be considered the exception, and this guise should be considered the norm.
In response to the unexpectedly strong criticism, vampire girl shudders for a moment then looks downward. Felmina-chan looks on at that vampire girl with a cold expression and Waldo-kun doesn’t interpose himself. That Waldo-kun has decided to stay beside vampire girl still despite being cut off from Charm, suggesting he’s taken a side. Or rather, if he’d just casually tagged along here without thinking then he’d have to be a seriously shallow guy.
「...am not...」
Vampire girl mutters in a subdued voice. Even with my sense of hearing that’s all I could hear, that’s how soft a mutter it was. However, it was clear that it was a mutter with real determination behind it.
「What?」
「I’m not the same!」
This time she shouts.
「I am a vampire. I’m not a normal person. I’m not the same.」
Most likely, I’m the only one here who comprehended the weight of the words she has said here and now. Those words are a declaration that vampire girl will completely cast aside her humanity. But...
「And, what of it?」
The mood in this chamber, has gotten as heavy as lead. Anger is pressing down so hard it might as well have mass.
「There’s good deeds and then there’s evil deeds. No matter what reasons you might have, evil deeds are still evil. What you’ve done, is evil no matter how much you protest.」
Felmina-chan gulps. Waldo-kun’s face stiffens while not being able to preserve his poker face.
「What you call evil deeds, is the way of life for vampires. To deny me that, means to deny my very being itself. If it’s evil then fine. That’s who I am.」
All by herself, vampire girl directly accepted that anger head-on.
They glare at each other.
Only time passes by.
Umm, I’m getting pretty hungry, so mind if I leave?

“love scene” – the word used here (“nureba”) originates from Kabuki theatre. It can also be used to refer to love/romantic/sex scenes in films.
“くshape” – a follow-on reference from “Oni 11”.
“he’s fresh out of the oven though” – the implication here is that Waldo has only just become a vampire. A newly baked vampire as it were, so isn’t used to things.
“beg for forgiveness on your belly” – Shiro suggests that Sophia do a “dogeza”.
When Sophia says “I’m not the same” that’s in response to Wrath’s “same people as yourself”. Here, the “same people as yourself” has the sense of “fellow humans” but without explicitly saying “human”.
