Vanitas no Carte Part 2

ดันเตและโยฮันนำวานิตาสและโนเอ้ไปยังซูอาเกสเพื่อล่าสัตว์ร้ายแห่งเจวอดันในป่าซิลเวอร์

Dante and Johann take Vanitas and Noé to the distant village of Suagues in pursuit of the Beast of Gévaudan. They venture into the Silver Forest, but Noé becomes separated from the others. It starts snowing and Vanitas, Dante, and Johann come across a squad of dragoons, indicating that they may have traveled back in time. Suddenly, they are confronted by the Beast. However, Jeanne appears and stops it. Meanwhile, Noé encounters Astolfo Granatum, a young Chasseur who has identified him as a vampire. Astolfo slaughters the surviving dragoons, then injects himself with a serum to enhance his abilities. They are suddenly interrupted by the arrival of Jeanne fighting the Beast along with Vanitas. Vanitas intercedes and goads Astolfo by purposely insulting him, which causes the appearance of Charalatan's envoy Naenia and the parade of demons. Astolfo loses his mind and Vanitas opens The Book of Vanitas to restore the Beast, but it is struck from his hands by a knife and all goes black. Later, Noé lies unconscious and Chloé has returned to her human form. Jean-Jacques appears and picks up the grimoire, inviting her to return to the Gévaudan castle with him. (Source: Wikipedia)

Jeanne finds Vanitas in the snow, wounded by the poisoned knife of Astolfo. She takes him to an abandoned building where she tries to restore his health, but he realizes that while she is there to slay the Beast, he is trying to save it. The next morning, Vanitas has recovered, but Jeanne is dismayed and embarrassed when she realizes she lay next to his naked body all night to keep him warm. Johann and Dante locate them and reveal that Jean-Jacques and Chloé have taken Noé and the grimoire. However, Vanitas is suspicious of their motives and demands to know why he, the vampires, and the Church are after the Beast, and Dante agrees to tell him. Meanwhile, Marco finds Alfonso sheltering in a cave still intent on killing the Beast. At Castle Gévaudan, Chloé sucks blood from the unconscious Noé until the jealous Jean-Jacques intervenes and stops her. Later, Noé comes down for dinner and finds Chloé in the company of Charalatan's envoy Naenia. (Source: Wikipedia)

Chloé tells Noé that she became a curse-bearer voluntarily when Naenia granted her wish. Noé attacks Naenia in revenge for Louis's demise, but Chloé intercedes and knocks him unconscious. Meanwhile, Dante tells Veritas that the d'Apchiers were wiped out by the Beast. They were conducting research on the World Formula against the Church's wishes seeking to produce an Alternate Engine for altering the formula which gave rise to the Beast of Gévaudan. He reveals that he is working for Sir Francis Varney, the Clockwork Fiend Marquis Machina, who seeks the Alternate Engine. Back in the castle, Chloé recalls the history of her family and their effort to create an Alternate Engine and her continued research. Years later, after the war between humans and vampires, August Ruthven demanded the results of her research but she refused to give it to him. Chloé now decides it is time to activate the Alternate Engine. (Source: Wikipedia)

ฌานและวานิตัสเดินทางไปยังปราสาทเจวอดองเพื่อเผชิญหน้ากับสัตว์ร้าย ขณะที่นัวได้รับคืนความทรงจำ

Jeanne heads off to Gévaudan castle to kill the Beast with Vanitas in tow. Meanwhile, inside the castle, Jean-Jacques shares his blood with Noé so the vampire will share his memories. Noé then sees how Jean-Jacques made a pact with Charlatan to gain the power to protect Chloé. He is in fact the Beast, not Chloé, although she is a vampire who willingly became a curse-bearer. Vanitas reunites with Noé, who has recovered, and they share the information they have gleaned to date. They suspect that the Beast was sanctioned by the Church as a way of keeping the population fearful of vampires and the unknown. They soon encounter Astolfo, and Noé offers to take care of him while Vanitas seeks out Chloé and the grimoire. Vanitas finds Chloé as she begins activating the Alternate Engine, which surprisingly forces Naenia to take a bodily form, enabling Chloé to dispose of her and the evil she represents.

Chloé begins to choke Naenia in an attempt to kill her in revenge for turning Jean-Jacques into the Beast, but Vanitas warns her that Naenia will recall who she is, the malnomen of Queen Faustina, the first vampire of the Crimson Moon. Naenia resists Chloé and the Beast attacks her, but the queen easily throws it aside and Chloé collapses in pain. The castle is then enveloped in blackness and torn asunder, and its pieces begin to float apart in a closed world that Chloé created. The populace is attacked by wolves but the paladin Roland and his Chasseurs, Olivier, Georges, and Maria arrive and slay the wolves. Roland reunites Vanitas and Noé and explains that he wants to speak with Chloé before he kills the Beast. Meanwhile, Jeanne has a flashback to when Ruthven turned her into a bureau so she could become a weapon for his purposes. (Source: Wikipedia)

ฌองน์ต่อสู้กับหน้าที่ในขณะที่วานิตาสู้เพื่อช่วยโคลีและฌอง-ฌักจากการทำลายตนเอง

Jeanne is conflicted over her concern for the vampires Chloé and Jean-Jacques and her duty as a bourreau to kill them, but Vanitas pleads with her to help him save them. As Astolfo recovers consciousness, he recalls how he and his sister befriended a vampire boy who then killed his entire family and household in revenge for his own family being killed by the Chasseurs' paladins. Vanitas asks Dante to search for the grimoire while he tries to reactivate the Alternate Engine which is powered by a special form of astermite called blue tearstone. In a wild rampage, Astolfo attacks and slashes Jean-Jacques and then viciously attacks Noé. Both Vanitas and the wounded Jean-Jacques realize that Chloé meant to destroy herself and Gévaudan castle. Jean-Jacques reaches out to Chloé, declaring his desire for the two of them to be together forever and causing her to resume her human form. Meanwhile, Vanitas recovers the grimoire and opens it in an attempt to neutralize Chloé's self-destructive spell enveloping the castle. (Source: Wikipedia)

Vanitas discovers that the grimoire is powerless against the malnomen unless a curse-bearer renounces the nether world of ice and snow which they inhabit, and he pleads with Chloé to reject it. Meanwhile, Noé defeats Astolfo but loses his left hand in the process. Vanitas successfully convinces Chloé to return to humanity, revealing her true name, Canorus, "she who makes music with snow flowers". Her spell is broken and the land becomes covered in white petals. With Chloé now human, Jean-Jacques asks Vanitas to do the same for him so they can be together, and he does, revealing his name to be Aprix, "he who nestles up to the last snow". Thus finally, Gévaudan is free of the Beast's curse. Jeanne is so overjoyed that Chloé is human again and she no longer has to kill her childhood friend, that she is overcome with emotion and jumps on Vanitas and drinks his blood. (Source: Wikipedia)

The next day, Mikhail returns to find Vanitas and Noé on the rooftop. Vanitas explains that he killed Luna because the Blue Moon Vampire had been cursed by an unknown person. Searching for the culprit is the reason Vanitas treats cursed vampires and he refuses to join Mikhail. Once Mikhail leaves, Vanitas reflects on his past actions, and although he vows to continue his quest, he apologizes to Noé, whom he now regards as a friend. (Source: Wikipedia, edited)
