| Lucifer | “That soul’s radiance is a light that goes beyond thousands of years—a light that illuminates even the bowels of the Earth. It is a galling, accursed heavenly gospel.” |
| Reni | … |
| (...Is that Tsumugi Tsukioka? His acting is totally different from before.) |
| |
| Prison Guard | "Don't come back here ever again." |
| Mark | "Thank you for everything." |
| "...Phew." |
| Ruffian | "Give me your money." |
| Mark | "—I've got no money. I just got out of jail." |
| Ruffian | "Shut up and just hand me your bag!" |
| *stabs* |
| Mark | "—eerk." |
| Ruffian | "*Pants*... *pants*... I'm not at fault! You're the one who didn't want to give it to me!" |
| Mark | “This has to be a joke… Is this how my life is going to end…?” |
| Lucifer | “Do you resent your destiny? Do you detest those who have entrapped you?” |
| Mark | “Eh…?” |
| Lucifer | "Let me lend you my power—one that will overturn your destiny and turn into a blade that can help you gain revenge." |
| Mark | "A devil…?" |
| Lucifer | “At this rate, you will rot away without achieving anything in life. You will rot away in solitary, without anyone acknowledging you.” |
| Mark | “...I don’t want that.” |
| Lucifer | “Then, in exchange for your soul, make a contract with me.” |
| Mark | "A contract…" |
| Lucifer | "You shall give me your soul in a month." |
| Mark | "A month? So I can't live longer than that?" |
| Lucifer | "No one can escape from the contract." |
| Mark | "No way! It's pointless to do that, then!" |
| Lucifer | "However, there is a way to escape from the contract." |
| "Hunt down the soul of another who formed a contract with the devils. If you manage to do that, your soul will be removed from the contract's terms and be replaced with another contractor's soul." |
| Mark | "Another contractor…" |
| Lucifer | "What will you do?" |
| Mark | "...Fine. I'll form a contract with you." |
| Lucifer | "Well then, the success of your revenge shall be guaranteed." |
| Mark | "What I want to do is not revenge. I just want to prove my innocence. That's all." |
| Lucifer | "...Fine. With that, the deal is sealed." |
| Izumi | (Tsumugi-san's Lucifer established the mood of the story right away. This is the result of him fussing over the opening scene.) |
| (Taichi-kun is also expressing the contrast between demon and human with his own way of acting.) |
| |
| Mark | "I can't believe that guy is the culprit all along… Here I thought he was a friend." |
| Lucifer | "Humans are fragile beings. They go astray so easily." |
| Mark | "It's because devils also have the ability to persuade us with their remarks." |
| Lucifer | "It's favorable for us devils." |
| Mark | "Have you always been here, Lucifer?" |
| Lucifer | "I'm only here until I'm told to go back. If it were not for the contractor's will, a high-ranking devil like me shouldn't be in the human world." |
| Mark | "Ooh, so you will appear whenever you’re summoned. That’s convenient." |
| Lucifer | "Don't make it sound like I'm merely a tool for humans. It feels unpleasant." |
| Mark | "Haha, sorry." |
| Lucifer | "Hmph." |
| Employer | "Hey, new face! Carry this luggage for me!" |
| Mark | "Yes!" |
| "Say, can a high-ranking devil carry this luggage?" |
| Lucifer | "That's easy." |
| Mark | "That's great. Thanks." |
| |
| Banri | (Just as I thought, comical acting is Taichi's forte.) |
| Sakyo | (Nanao's Mark helps the audience feel closer to Lucifer, who has non-human qualities…) |
| |
| Mark's Friend | "I'd never intended to do that. It's just, at that time, I got so pissed off by his remarks for some reason..." |
| "I couldn't control myself." |
| "I repent for my sins of setting my friend up." |
| Walter | "Turn over a new leaf, atone for your sins. If you do that, your soul will be saved." |
| Mark's Friend | "...Thank you very much, Father." |
| Walter | "..." |
| Beelzebub | "I sense another devil's presence." |
| Walter | "I don't see anyone who looks like a contractor, though." |
| Beelzebub | "They have this disgusting smell of a pest." |
| Walter | "So you mean you know this devil?" |
| Beelzebub | "Putting that aside, I'm hungry. I want to eat stew." |
| Walter | "...I've never heard of a devil who eats stew." |
| Beelzebub | "It's got lots of meat." |
| Walter | "Fine, fine." |
| "...A devil's presence, huh. God, I pray to you, lend a helping hand to your miserable lost children and bring salvation to the corrupts." |
| |
| Juza | (He could express the character's madness while making such a gentle face… This, once again, shows the richness in Omi-san's acting. I can't lose to him.) |
| Citron | (A devil who likes human food, huh… He was an iron masked android before, but now he could act out another complicated character.) |
| (He's become expressive after joining this theater troupe.) |
| |
| Mark | "It's been a while, Cliff." |
| Cliff | "Mark! When did you get released!?" |
| Mark | "A week ago. Thanks for all your help." |
| Cliff | "No, I should apologize since I couldn't be of any help. It was a disaster." |
| Mark | "The real criminal surrendered to authorities the other day." |
| Cliff | "I see. They should have turned themselves in sooner—. Putting that aside, I'm glad your innocence has been proven." |
| Mark | "Me too." |
| Cliff | "Have you gotten a new job?" |
| Mark | "I wish. I'm currently doing day-to-day work to survive while looking for a job." |
| Cliff | "Why don't you work at my place? I welcome you with open arms." |
| Mark | "I appreciate your offer, but your 'work' just isn't for me." |
| Cliff | "But if it were not for our 'work,' more children would have died." |
| Mark | "I know that very well. But still, I can't do it." |
| Cliff | "Hit me up whenever you change your mind." |
| Mark | "Thanks, Cliff." |
| Lucifer | "Why do you not rely on Cliff?" |
| Mark | "His work deals with a lot of illegal business, like threat and extortion." |
| "I know that a lot of people wouldn't be able to eat if it's not for his job. But I don't want to do that." |
| Lucifer | "If so, quickly find an honest job with good pay. I've had enough being summoned to that dirty room over and over again." |
| Mark | "You're pretty obsessed with cleanliness for a devil." |
| Lucifer | "That was unnecessary." |
| Mark | "Haha, sorry. Help me clean up my room, then. I don't think I can move out for a while, after all." |
| Lucifer | "Why do I have to do that…" |
| |
| Shifuto | (Azami...I can see you're truly engaged in the play. Not only acting but also makeup… you're really amazing, Azami.) |
| |
| Mark | "What are those?" |
| Lucifer | "Demons. They aren't that powerful, but they like to disturb humans and create mischiefs." |
| "You know when people succumb to temptation? That is their doing." |
| Mark | "Watch out—!" |
| Demon | "Kee kee!" |
| Lucifer | "Demons are everywhere. Minding their presence will only take you nowhere." |
| Mark | "Never mind that. It's only natural to help people who are about to die in front of us." |
| Lucifer | "That's very simple of you." |
| Mark | "And you still go along with me; aren't you also—." |
| Lucifer | "What?" |
| Mark | "It's nothing." |
| |
| Haruto | (I see. He's expressing Mark's awkwardness when he begins to trust Lucifer before recalling their contract.) |
| (So he could act like this now…) |
| (Taichi Nanao, was it? Back when he was still a trainee, I thought he was merely a boring actor who could do nothing but copy others' acts. Since when did he…) |
| |
| Mark | "...Demons hanging around the church? That's one strange combination." |
| Walter | "Is there something troubling you?" |
| Mark | "Ah, no—." |
| Walter | "Please come in. This door is open to anyone." |
| Mark | "..." |
| Walter | "Are your troubles perhaps related to the devils?" |
| Mark | "Eh?" |
| Walter | "I've seen similar expressions before. Maybe I can give you some advice." |
| Mark | "Do you know anything about devils?" |
| Walter | "Yes. I have exorcised low-ranking devils and gave advice to those who made contracts with the devils." |
| Mark | "Those who made contracts with the devils…" |
| Walter | "In exchange of granting their wishes, those devils demand the soul of their contractors. Do you want to know a way to escape from them?" |
| Mark | "Is there such a way!?" |
| Walter | "God bestows salvation upon anyone. We will attract attention if we keep talking here. Please come inside." |
| |
| Mark | "..." |
| "This place is…?" |
| Walter | "Devils’ powers won't be able to reach here." |
| Mark | "So how can one escape from the contract…" |
| Walter | "Give relief to one's corrupted soul." |
| Mark | "—!?" |
| Beelzebub | "There's no mistake, Walter. This one is a contractor. He formed a contract with—." |
| Mark | "A devil!?" |
| Walter | "Are you surprised to see a priest and a devil joining forces? You see, this is a necessary evil." |
| Mark | "Lucifer, come!" |
| Lucifer | "How cunning, preparing a barrier like this—." |
| Beelzebub | "Just as I thought, it's you, Lucifer. So that means he is…?" |
| Lucifer | "If you get it, release him this instant." |
| Beelzebub | "Unfortunately, that is not for me to decide. He won't give me lunch if I don't work." |
| Lucifer | "You've been had with food." |
| Mark | "Did you trick me?" |
| Walter | "You want to get away from that devil, don't you? In that case, there's only one way to achieve that." |
| Mark | "—." |
| Walter | "Haa!" |
| *knife swings* |
| Mark | "Urgh." |
| Beelzebub | "You'll be fine. There's no need to worry; you won't be the only one. There's a lot of contractors who turned into souls. You won't be lonely." |
| Mark | "Did you hunt down the souls of other contractors too?" |
| Walter | "We're not hunting them down. We rescued them." |
| *knife swings* |
| Mark | "What's the difference—!?" |
| *knife swings* |
| Walter | "You're pretty persistent, huh." |
| Beelzebub | "As expected of Lucifer's contractor." |
| Lucifer | "Break this barrier, Mark!" |
| Walter | "As if I'll let you—." |
| *knife swings* |
| Mark | "Hyaaaa!" |
| Walter | "Beelzebub!" |
| Beelzebub | "What's my reward?" |
| Walter | "Quiche." |
| Beelzebub | "It's a deal." |
| Mark | "—urgh." |
| Beelzebub | "Playtime is over. Before Lucifer comes—." |
| *barrier shatters* |
| Lucifer | "It's too late. You made me angry, Beelzebub." |
| Walter | "Tch, so troublesome—." |
| Lucifer | "Hyaa!" |
| Walter | "Ugh—." |
| Beelzebub | "—uh." |
| Mark | "Lucifer, stop it!" |
| Lucifer | "Why?" |
| Mark | "They're going to die at this rate." |
| Walter | "—Let's go, Beelzebub." |
| Beelzebub | "...Guess I'm skipping lunch today." |
| Lucifer | "Why did you stop me?" |
| Mark | "I'm not going to hunt other contractors' souls." |
| Lucifer | "But you want to break free from the contract, don't you?" |
| Mark | "Well, honestly speaking, there's no way I can accept it when someone tells me I'll die within a month." |
| "But it doesn't mean I'll exchange my soul with another person's. I refuse to do that." |
| Lucifer | "You're as naive as ever." |
| |
| Homare | (A devil who gets close to humans and shows sympathy for them, all while keeping his otherworldly characteristics… I think this is much better than an inhuman devil, Tsumugi-kun.) |
| |
| Mark | "That priest died? How on earth…" |
| Lucifer | "Don't look at me. I'm not that free." |
| Beelzebub | "Walter was killed by another contractor. You two should be careful as much as possible." |
| Lucifer | "Hmph, that's none of your business. Don't even bother following us with that fly form of yours." |
| Beelzebub | "I just came to eat the quiche he made for the last time before he died." |
| Mark | "..." |
| Lucifer | "Whether you like it or not, other contractors are going to come after you." |
| Mark | "I know. But still…" |
| Lucifer | "Do whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me." |
| Mark | "Do you mean, you're fine with whatever as long as you get a soul?" |
| Lucifer | "...Exactly." |
| Mark | "What are human souls for you devils? Some fodder?" |
| Lucifer | "If by fodder you mean the source of our power, I guess you can call it that. However, it's not something necessary for us." |
| Mark | "In that case, why would you all go all the way to form a contract with us humans?" |
| Lucifer | "We're just killing time." |
| Mark | "Killing time!?" |
| Lucifer | "Do you even know what kind of existence the devils are? We take great delight in people's suffering, hedonism, war and calamity." |
| Mark | "It doesn't look that way to me." |
| "Even though you're a devil, it's easy to get along with you. This is the first time someone stays by my side this long." |
| Lucifer | "Like I said, you're naive." |
| "...Human souls will always be rescued unless they turn into fodder." |
| Mark | "Rescued?" |
| Lucifer | "One may long for their conscience and a fragment of God's divine protection that they won't be able to reach anymore." |
| Mark | "...In other words, they used to be able to reach it in the past." |
| Lucifer | "You sure caught on fast to trivial things like this." |
| Mark | "Say, Lucifer, are you perhaps not originally a devil?" |
| Lucifer | "I'm not going to tell you." |
| Mark | "But why? Earlier, you—." |
| Lucifer | "It's not like you will remember, anyway." |
| Mark | "Eh…?" |
| |
| Hisoka | (I could get a glimpse of Lucifer's sorrow… Tsumugi conveyed it well through his delicate expression.) |
