Episode 40: Showdown in the Castle: Trick gets Tricked?

No.
Don’t wanna.
Shoot, but if you guys don’t do the update with us, who’s going to eat all this candy?
Did someone say candy!?
Gahhh! Where did you even come from?
N-No, nobody said anything about candy. And even if there was candy, it’s only for people presenting this episode. Which is me and Rom.
Candy.
Aww, no fair. I’m just going to sit here and pout until you let me join.
Will she?
Unfortunately, she’s pretty steadfast when it comes to things like this. Just try to ignore her. Last time, we got asked to walk into a trap. Now, on Neptune…

It is no use to keep me bound. They know what their primary objective is.
Don’t make that face! It ruins the façade of innocence that makes you so…tasty!
I can smell our hostage at least, right? I won’t lick her skin off, so…
You heard CFW Magic, sir. Don’t get carried away.
No problem, I am confident in my ability to starve my libido. Pardon me, girl… * sniff, sniff * Mmm… * huff, huff *
P-Please cease this, you letch!
Kekeke. You flatter me so much.
Jeez, I hope they get here soon.

……
Seriously?
Just ignore her, it’s the only way she’ll learn.



Nepgear? Why did you answer their demand!?
Oh, how delectable! An entire gaggle of ripe maidens! Maiden goddesses!
Augh, gross me out! This perv!?
Yucky.
Kekeke. Don’t be afraid, my children. Come, come and sit on daddy’s lap. We’ll have fun exploring each other.
We’re here, like you asked. Release your hostage.
The hell’re you making demands for? Why would an evil syndicate ever keep their promise?
We figured as much. Then we’ll just fight her free!
No, this is no good. If you come at us, I’ll have no choice but to rend the tender flesh from her bones!
Please don’t make me defile any maidens with my own hands!
Histoire… What do we do now?
You see my point, yes? Come, bring the twins to me first. Over here, angels. You know what’ll happen if you say no.
I don’t wanna, but…
IF you do something icky to Rom, I’ll kick you in the nards!

……
How does she even make those ellipses? It’s kind of weirding me out.
Freaky.
Just keep ignoring her.



Mmm, my nutritious little maidens. What a splendid opportunity to have so much sugar on three sides.
H-Hey, stoppit! Don’t breathe heavily on me!
Gross. Stinky.
I apologize. I was careless.
I’ll just let him have whatever he considers fun over there.
Uh, CFW Trick, sir. I can beat the…uh, ugly outta these two over here, right?
That sounds delicious! I’ve no interest in anything but the freshest of meats.
You heard ‘em, morons. Don’t even think about fighting back, or your precious little fairy’ll get turned to dust.
Then, shall we start by letting me vent my anger over my losing streak!?
Backhand!
Kyah!
Gah!
Nepgear, Uni!
Bwahaha! I’m the queen of Gamindustri! Cry me a river and build me a bridge so I can step over your dead bodies!
Thud! Bamf!
Urg… Ahh!
You outcast… Don’t get carried away!
Oh, what’s that rebellious look? You gonna defy us? We’ve still got a hostage. Look at her and say bye-bye.

……
Holy crap, just take some of the candy! Jeez.
Victory! Dah-da-da-da-da-da-da!
No, you have to stop dancing. That is the condition.
Accepted.
Goodness! We’ve not done any narration at all so far!



Stop her, you fat pimple! We didn’t resist or anything!
Kekeke, you want me to stop her? Why don’t you do me a favor, first?
Whaddaya want from us, blockhead!? It better not be anything slimy!
You can be a cunning linguist, my dear. I only want you to join ASIC.
Join ASIC!?
This is nonsense!
Miss Nepgear… Miss Uni…
Crack! Neck chop!
Urgh! Gaah!
If we join, you won’t bully them?
Rom, what the heck!?
But if we don’t, they’ll…
Uh…

Mmph, so the creeper tried the old blackmail trick?
Slow down and chew! And yes.
He was really icky.



A promise with maidens is sacrosanct! It’s part of my Loli Law podcast.
Then…
No!
Miss Nepgear…?
I can handle her weak punches. Don’t you care join ASIC!
She’s really limp-wristed.
If you join ASIC, I’ll have to beat you two up.
You…
Too much talking! Eat my fist! I’ll cram it so far up your ass you’ll be my human puppet!
Smack! Stars and stripes!
Kyah!
Tch, ack!
Oops, they’ve poured oil on a fire. It’s gonna be a problem now.
I can’t take this…
You and me both. I’m so over this.
Yeah, you’re smarter than them, right? Of course you don’t like how things are. Why not just join ASIC right away?
It’s not fair, protecting us but hurting them.
I really don’t like it when I’m not allowed to help my friends!

Yeah, no way were we going to team up with that lowlife.
Uh-oh, Ram’s learning some of her sister’s favorite words!



The twins’ powers are rising.
I’ll save them!
I won’t let them take advantage of us just because we’re adorable!
Wh-What’re you doing over there, CFW Trick, sir!?
Geh. I’ve been so outright rejected that they became even stronger. I may die from a broken heart.
This is no time for self-pity, sir! We’ve still got a hostage! Force them to obey by using her!
Y-You’re absolutely correct! Hey! We’ve still got the smallest maiden of all…here? Wh-Where’d she go?
Looking for this hostage? While you were busy pouting, we decided to just take her back.
All good under that hood, Histy? You didn’t get messed up, did you?
No, I am pristine.
Sis, you all came. Why?
We knew it was gonna be a trap, so why do you think we’d just let you go. We followed and waited for our cue.
Rom and Ram are excellent bait. They gave us the perfect chance.

Ram, Mina said we weren’t ever supposed to say anything Blanc says.



Sure. Just letting them rub their grimy paws on me frustrates me to no end.
You know what? I’m really angry.
Eeeeek! What’re we gonna do, sir!? They’re seriously ticked off.
Don’t lose composure. Maybe I played around too much. I won’t let them have the upper hand.
I’ve wanted to bust your skull since I beat you up the last time.
I won’t forgive you for brainwashing me and drooling on my clothes.
You bullied Miss Nepgear and Miss Uni. There won’t be any mercy for you.

It’s okay when it’s about a bad guy.

Boss Battle: CFW Trick
Trick’s back, and is an even bigger blob of HP than he was last time. The biggest thing to worry about is his Lick, Lick special he’ll use when his health gets lower. This does pretty substantial damage and applies some stat debuffs. He also likes doing status effects with his normal attacks, so be careful of those as well. I use Rom and Ram’s new ultimates in this fight, Northern Cross and Absolute Zero. Enjoy.

I, I don’t know if that’s quite right.

This leaves me with no regrets!
He vanished. Way too creepy, in too many ways.
This is all thanks to Rom and Ram!
Ehehehe. I tried my best.
When we’re fighting for real, you better hold onto your pants.
Oh yeah, where’d Underling go?
I don’t see her around. Maybe she ran away again?
The world’s fastest chicken.
Everyone, I apologize profusely for causing this trouble.
It’s not you, Histy. It’s all their fault.
We were all fooled in some way. Don’t beg us for forgiveness.
We solved one problem, but we’ve got another.
Yes. Planeptune has been taken over.
Takin’ my house away while I’m gone definitely merits a spanking! We gotta go take it back!
I would normally say to do as you wish and leave me out of it… However, that seems inappropriate now.
It would prove a great challenge to reclaim our land without your aid. I would ask for your help once more.
Let’s think up a new plan first. Can we call the Oracles together?

Hey, this cutscene totally doesn’t end there! It goes right into another one!
Shh! You’re not supposed to talk about that!
Huh?
Oh, sis.
Are we going to get in trouble now? Will they take back the candy?
