Background Music: Castle Keep Entrance - Despair When: First Encounter with Walter Man: Welcome to my castle. Pleased to meet you. I am the master of the castle, Walter Bernhard.
Leon: (pointing at Walter) Give back Sara!! Walter: Do not rush. Your lady is here. Leon: Sara!! Why? Why won't she answer? Walter: It seems the lady is tired. Hmm, it seems you are, too.
(Walter's eyes turn red) Walter: Rest a while... Leon: What?!
(Leon struggles, swings the whip to Walter, but fails) Walter: Well... That whip is Rinaldo's, is it? Leon: It can't be! My attack doesn't work... Walter: I see. It's just as that knight said. Very well. You've made it this far. I'll return her as a reward. Leon: Sara! Walter: I'll be in the throne room on the highest floor. I look forward to you making it there alive.
(Walter walks away as he laughs evilly)
(Leon checks Sara if she's all right and finally she wakes up) Sara: Leon... Leon, is that you? Leon: You're awake! Thank goodness... A friend is waiting for us. Let's go see him first.
(Near Rinaldo's Cottage, Leon rushes Sara) Leon: Sara, this way.
(Sara follows Leon, but she falls suddenly) Leon: Sara!! What's the matter?! Rinaldo: What's all this racket? Leon: Rinaldo! Sara suddenly...! Rinaldo: On, no! You go on inside. Leon: But... Rinaldo: There is nothing you can do. Wait quietly inside. Leon: All right... Please take care of Sara.
(At Rinaldo's Cottage, Leon worries about Sara's state, going here and there) Leon: How is Sara doing?! Rinaldo: She's sleeping in the back. Leon: (sigh of relief) What in the world happened? Rinaldo: The barrier around this house... It responded. Leon: (scarily) What are you saying? That's... That's not possible. Rinaldo: There's no use hiding it, so I will tell you plainly. That girl has been tainted by the vampire. Leon: (angrily) You're lying! That can't be! Rinaldo: Why would I lie to you? You must accept the truth! Leon: Please, tell me you're lying. Rinaldo: She is not a vampire yet, to be precise. She won't even be aware of it... But as time passes, she will gradually lose her humanity. Like my daughter... Leon: Is there anything I can do? Rinaldo: The only thing would be to defeat Walter immediately. Leon: Tell me, is this whip effective against him? Rinaldo: Why do you ask? Leon: I tried to strike him with it, but it didn't seem to work. Rinaldo: It is as I thought, then... it didn't even work for you... Leon: Isn't there another way? Rinaldo: Well, there is, but... Leon: Tell me! I'll do anything! Rinaldo: Then let me ask you this. Can you kill that girl? Leon: (shocked) What are you saying...? Rinaldo: If you make the whip complete, you can destroy him. But in order to do that, you need a tainted soul-- One that trusts you and one that you can trust... Leon: I abandoned everything in order to save Sara! I could... I could never do such a thing. Rinaldo: Even knowing she's not human, it's a difficult thing to do. I'm not surprised. Leon: Is she really... Is Sara really... Rinaldo: There's no doubt about it. I confirmed the bite mark. The fact that the barrier responded is proof above all else.
(Suddenly, the door knocks) Leon: Sara?! Rinaldo: Did she overhear us just now?!
When: Before the Battle with Walter Walter: Welcome. I have been waiting, Leon.
Leon: Walter... I will never forgive you. Walter: I see... It seems you have enjoyed the gift that I gave you. Leon: (growls) Yes, thanks to that, I now have the power to defeat you. Walter: Well, that power... is quite something. But I am beloved by the night. You will taste my powers. Leon: I'll kill you AND the night! Walter: Interesting... Now, the curtain rises on this delightful little game.
When: Battle with Walter (Leon destroys Walter's barrier)
Walter: What?! Leon: Now, there is nothing left to protect you! I'll fulfill my promise to Sara now! Walter: Not yet... The power of the night is still full. I shall teach you the meaning of true terror.
Background Music: Dracula Appears When: After defeating Walter Walter: (injured) It can't be... This should not have happened...
Leon: Sara's suffering... and Rinaldo's grief... (walking towards Walter) Carve them into your cursed body and perish. Walter: (dying) But... With my powers, I will surely come back to life... I could not obtain the Crimson Stone, but someday, it will be mine!
(Suddenly, Death laughs at Walter) Walter: No! You betrayed me?! Death: I shall take your soul!
(Walter: Nooooooo...) Death: This power... I offer to the king who wields the Crimson Stone!
Mathias: (breath of relief) Excellent... I never spent a better night. Leon: (shocked) Mathias! Mathias: You didn't disappoint me, Leon. I knew without a doubt that you would accomplish this. Leon: What is the meaning of this? Mathias: I needed a powerful vampire's soul. That is all. Leon: Are you saying you used me?! Mathias: Not just you. Your betrothed, Sara, Rinaldo, and Walter... I used all of you. I never thought it would go so well, though. Leon: (pointing at the Crimson Stone) Is that - that stone... the Crimson Stone? Mathias: Ah, you know it? I'm impressed. I made Walter's soul mine with the power of this stone. Leon: I sense a rage from this whip... Mathias! You abandoned humanity?! Mathias: That's right! By becoming a vampire, I obtained eternal life. That was my goal. It was my revenge against God! Leon: (shocked) Revenge against God?! Mathias: We have risked our lives and fought for the sake of God... But God mercilessly stole away the one I loved most... When all I ever wished for was Elisabetha's safety!! If limited life is God's decree, then I shall defy it!! And within that eternity, I shall curse Him forevermore! Leon: (sighs sadly) Mathias... Mathias: Leon, after what you've been through, you should know... Leon: Yes, you're right. I do understand how you feel... I, too... Mathias: Then come with me. I will give you eternity, too. Leon: You wretched fool. Mathias: What? Leon: Is this what the woman you loved would have wanted? The Mathias I know would not have loved such a woman.
(Mathias looks downward) Mathias: Elisabetha was a kind, honorable woman. She was concerned only for me to the very end... That is why I hate Him! Am I wrong?! (pointing at Leon) Did you not defeat Walter with hatred in your heart, too? Leon: Yes. I'd be lying if I claimed otherwise. But defeating him... No, preventing others from suffering the same cursed fate... That was Sara's dying wish... Mathias: (shocked) Leon: Granting my beloved's wish. That is all I can do to prove my love to Sara. Eternity without her would be nothing but emptiness. Mathias: Leon... I thought that you would understand... Dawn is coming... Farewell, Leon. Death, he's all yours.
(Mathias becomes a bat and flies away) Leon: Stop!
(Death blocks Leon) Leon: No! Death: By my master's orders, you'll be destroyed here and now!
When: After defeating Death Death: To think that I would be...
Leon: I have the power to destroy all related to the vampires. Though you have divine powers, you are no exception. Death: Unfortunately for you, as long as my master survives, I will rise from the dead... Leon: I see. Give him this message: You have become a cursed being and I will never forgive you. This whip and my kinsmen will destroy you someday. From this day on, the Belmont Clan will hunt the night.
(Death fades away. Leon escapes from the crumbling castle. Meanwhile, at Rinaldo's Cottage, Rinaldo sees the sun rising in the sky) Rinaldo: So, he did it...
Leon
