This is the second time this event has been held. I found here a translation of the first two chapters, a premium ending, and even an epilogue. But keep in mind that both the PE and the epilogue are NSFW.
Chapter 1
This a fan translation so it is definitely not 100% accurate. I do not own anything related to Ikemen Villains. Support Cybird by
The bitter ending on the other hand is very sweet and funny.
But before I start, I just can't help but mention this Ally's remark.
My very free interpretation of his words. He often belittles himself by covering it with sarcasm, and in my opinion, it sounds exactly like he would say. The meaning is the same, but I gave it a more extreme shade.
Bitter ending
Ellis asked Vivi to leave them for a bit while they were still connected (am I the only one ashamed to say this?). Vivi smiles sweetly and asks them to call him when they are ready.
Left alone, Ellis told Kate what he has a present for her. And give a red ribbon.
Kate remembered that at the time when she was choosing a dress for this mission, she was looking at this ribbon.
But when it came time to choose a hair accessory, she decided that it was to plain for the noble's daughter so she chose another one. Even if she didn't say it out loud, Ellis noticed it anyway. Well… it's Ellis, he looking at you 24/7.
Ellis told her if she wanted to be connected to him… He doesn't mind.
(coughing)… I'm sorry… I just remembered the epilogue…
But Kate thinks he doesn't consider her a special person, he's kind to everyone. And it makes her a little sad. Ellis adds...
Oh… those beautiful eyes and sad expression… No, no, no, no! I won't fall for him again, I won't!
After a few days, on the mission, they were surrounded by criminals (as I understand it). Ellis noticed her nervousness and calmed her down
You know, it's really reassuring, I'm not even kidding.
The criminals handcuffed them and forced them to sit on the floor. Ellis and Kate laugh at the fact that they are connected again.
Jude appears...
Indeed, this is the only problem of this place.
Of course, Jude had to comment on this...
My translator stubbornly told me "Kate is in heat." I've been laughing on that so hard. Yes, she is a cat/dog, and in constant heat.
I didn't figure out what happened to the bandits, whether Jude alone took care of them, or the other Crown members came to the rescue, but the moment Kate got up from the floor
I literally almost cried at that moment. I really like this concept… For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about. I really doubt there's anyone here who doesn't know, but to be sure… There is a theory that people who are destined to be together are connected by a red thread (of fate).

One night, a few hours before his birthday.
Liam: Are you ready, Kate?
Kate: Yes, sorry for keeping you waiting.
I thought back to something that happened a few nights ago—.
= Flashback Start =
Kate: Nn…
Liam: Sorry, did I wake you?
I was woken up by Liam’s gentle voice as he climbed into bed like a cat.
Kate: It’s okay, welcome back.
I reached my arms out to hug him and my eyes narrowed from the feeling of his body warmth, when—
Kate: … You smell nice.
There was a delicious smell coming from his clothes.
Kate: Did you eat something, Liam?
It wasn’t the first time he went out at night.
(Before we started dating, it seemed that he had to regularly go outside and satisfy his curiosity.)
(But after we started dating, he did that less frequently and stopped doing dangerous things.)
I thought that going out at night was a way for him to distract himself a little because he couldn’t sleep, but…
(Why did he come back smelling this delicious…?)
Liam: I didn't eat anything… maybe the smell from the food stalls clung to me.
Liam: There’s a nighttime event happening in London for a week, starting from today.
Liam: I passed through the market where the food stalls were, so I think that's why I smell like them.
Liam: The smell must be bothering you. Sorry, I’ll leave right away.
I grabbed his hand as he was about to get off the bed and buried my face in his clothes.
Kate: … Now I’m hungry.
I couldn't help but laugh. He happily hugged me again and narrowed his eyes tenderly.
Kate: I wish I went with you.
Liam: I wanted to go with you too.
Liam: How about we go together?
…
Liam: Shall we get going?
As we walked hand in hand, I recalled the conversation we had about his birthday present.
(Knowing how he is, I didn’t expect Liam to directly say what he wanted…)
Liam said that going out together was his birthday present.
(But I still want to make him happy and give him something.)
After giving it some thought, I had an idea and decided to put it into action.
…
Kate: Wow…!
The bustling market lined with various stalls lit up the night.
Liam: There may be a lot of people here, but it’s still night time. Don’t stray too far from me, okay?
He took my hand, and we walked along the street filled with delicious smells and cheerful sounds.
Kate: They have alcohol, fish and chips, pie, and even scones.
Liam: They’re selling sausages and other meat dishes too.
Kate: And there’s gelato over there!
We chatted happily while exploring the stalls, but—
Liam: Ah, I thought you’d like this pie, Kate.
Liam: Those limited edition cookies over there look lovely, I think you’ll like them too.
Liam: These cocktails are low in alcohol content, so they're suitable for you to drink.
Kate: … You sure know a lot, don't you, Liam?
He scratched his cheek and smiled bashfully, narrowing his eyes.
Liam: I memorised those things because I’m always thinking about you.
(I truly am the luckiest person alive…)
His words brought me joy, and his actions conveyed his love for me.
Liam: How is it? Does it taste good?
I nodded repeatedly with a mouth full of meat pie.
Seeing this, he looked satisfied and ate his pie, however—
Kate: Liam, you have something on your mouth…
Liam: Kate, you have something on your mouth…
Both of us reached out at the exact same time to brush away the crumbs from the corners of each other’s mouths.
Our eyes met and we blinked at each other in silence.
It was him who burst out laughing first.
Liam: Haha! We were thinking the same thing.
Kate: Fufu, even our timing was the same.
Liam: We might really be getting increasingly similar to each other recently.
Kate: We even bought the same food the other day.
When I went home with new items from the bakery, I saw him waiting for me with the same items.
When I was mentioning places I wanted to go on dates, he suggested the exact same spots…
(I feel so much joy whenever such things happen.)
After laughing together for a while, he caressed my cheek.
Liam: … I guess this is what they call “feeling blessed”.
Liam: It looks like our worlds revolve around each other.
Liam: I can’t contain my happiness whenever I realise that.
I wrapped my hand over the one caressing my cheek and lowered my gaze.
Kate: I feel happy and blessed too.
Kate: Wonderful, isn’t it? We’re always thinking about each other.
We smiled and gently embraced each other,
Liam: … You’re a natural at making me happy, Kate.
Kate: Fufu… and you’re a natural at making me happy.
The sound of his laughter in my ear filled me with joy once again.
Liam: I feel like kidnapping you right this instant and take you straight to bed.
Kate: Before you do that, I want to buy a cake first.
Liam: Could it be… my birthday cake?
Kate: Yes. Shall we choose one together?
I was sure he would be happy with anything if I were the one choosing or baking it.
(But Liam isn’t a fan of sweets, so it might be better to get a smaller cake.)
Liam: … Yeah, I want to choose one together with you.
Kate: There’s a cake shop over there.
Kate: Let’s go, Liam.
The way he squinted as if dazzled by a bright light the moment I took his hand left an impression on me.
= Flashback End =
Kate: … Liam, you’re upset, aren't you?
He paced around with light, cat-like steps while carrying me in his arms and suddenly stopped.
Liam: I’m not.
His lips didn't form a smile, causing me to feel guilty and reflect on my actions a few hours ago.
= Flashback Start =
Kate: This is all we could get. Are you really okay with it, Liam?
Liam: Yeah. I like this cake better, actually.
The cake shop had such a busy day that only small cupcakes were left.
(This is a little too plain for a birthday cake…)
While I was thinking of wanting to somehow bring a birthday feeling to the moment, something caught my eye.
Kate: Liam, I’m going to get a little something from that shop over there.
Not wanting to disturb him while he was browsing other shops, I let go of his hand after saying that.
He frantically tried holding my hand again, but—
Kate: It’s okay, the shop’s just over there.
Since the shop was only a short distance away, I started walking towards it before he could grab my hand.
The instant I turned around after buying what I wanted,
Kate: … Liam?
There was a sudden crowd of people passing by and before I knew it, he was out of my sight.
Just as I was desperately searching for him in the crowd, I felt my body being lifted off the ground…
= Flashback End =
(We somehow managed to reunite and return home, but…)
According to the hands on the clock, it was almost dawn. Yet, I still hadn't been able to say happy birthday to him.
As I was gently set down on the edge of the bed, I glaced up at him standing in front of me.
Seeing the sadness in his eyes caused guilt to well up in me again.
Liam: … Had I held your hand properly, you wouldn't have gotten lost.
= Flashback Start =
Liam: There may be a lot of people here, but it’s still night time. Don’t stray too far from me, okay?
= Flashback End =
(I should've known that Liam would put the blame on himself instead of me.)
Feeling ashamed of myself, I once again held the hand I had let go off.
Kate: It’s not your fault, Liam! … I’m so sorry for worrying you.
His voice was trembling as he hugged me tightly, his eyes shaking.
Liam: Don’t ever leave my side again.
Kate: … Okay.
While we were feeling each other's warmth,
Liam: ah…
He noticed the time and pulled away.
Liam: I didn’t realise it at all.
I took a cupcake and something else out of a paper bag and lit it.
It was a candle in the shape of a rose.
Kate: Happy birthday, Liam.
His eyes wavered as he accepted the cupcake.
Kate: I’m so happy to celebrate your birthday again this year.
Kate: Thank you for being born.
Liam: … You left to buy this?
I nodded with a wry smile, and he bit his lip before smiling softly and closing his eyes.
Liam: … Thank you, Kate.
Bit by bit, he started speaking the words he had been hiding in his heart.
Liam: Before I met you, I was always afraid of celebrating my birthday.
Liam: I used to think that as long as I never know what this happiness feels like, I won’t feel sad when it disappears.
I was reminded of the things he said when sharing his true feelings on his birthday last year.
= Flashback Start =
Liam: I… I was terrified of being celebrated… and knowing how it feels to have a birthday with you in it…
Liam: I was foolish and all I could think of was the possibility of me losing all of that… it scared me.
Liam: But if I keep running away… I’ll be trampling all over your kindness and feelings.
Liam: I don't have any other option but to choose this moment, because I just love you so much.
= Flashback End =
The rose-shaped candle melted away, like it was shedding one petal at a time.
Liam: … There might come a day when, like this candle, all these happy moments will melt away.
Liam: But I can’t go back to spending birthdays without you, and I don't think I can ever let go of your hand.
He blew out the candle and it turned into something shaped like a flower bud.
Liam: Next year, the year after that, and until the day I die… will you celebrate my birthday by my side?
He brushed his finger across my lips as he made a wish for a future we had yet to see.
Kate: … Of course I will. I’ll be right here by your side, celebrating your birthday even if you say you don’t want me to.
Kate: I’ll keep doing that until the day you can finally say from the bottom of your heart that you’re glad you were born.
I heard a slight gasp as I pressed the cupcake to his lips.
Kate: Let’s eat, Liam.
(Liam still struggles with his birthday.)
I can’t save the person who lived through his painful past.
(I sometimes find myself wondering why couldn’t we have met sooner…)
(But I’m sure there’s a reason for us to only meet now.)
It's because I’ve set my heart on loving all his past wounds and living by his side.
Liam: … Kate.
Kate: Nn.
He stole a kiss from my lips after taking a bite of the cupcake.
Liam: Is it sweet?
Kate: … It became sweeter because of you.
He kicked the cream from the corners of my mouth, looking amused—.
Liam: I’m not a fan of sweets, but I want to see more of your sweet expressions.
He deepened the kiss and we fell onto the bed.
Kate: Liam, wait a second.
Liam: I can’t wait anymore.
He undid the ribbon at the back of my shirt, causing it to fall off my shoulders.
As he took off my skirt, he reached for his own shirt as well.
Liam: I want you right now.
I was enveloped by the sweet smell of vanilla, tempting me to give into him on the spot, but—.
Kate: I want to give you your present!
I slipped out from under him and reached under the bed.
Liam: … Don’t tell me, you’ve been hiding it there?
I lifted up a large paper bag with two hands and showed it to him, who was still in shock on the bed.
Kate: You never noticed, did you?
(It was the right decision to hide it before we headed out.)
Kate: Now close your eyes.
Following my instructions, he closed his eyes. I stood on the bed and swiftly ripped open the paper bag.
Liam: Wha…
He looked up and at the same time, a shower of flower petals rained down on him.
Liam: Wow… petals!?
The pink petals fell over his head like blessings, scattering onto the white sheets.
In an instant, Liam and the bed were covered in petals. I couldn't contain my smile of satisfaction.
Kate: These are the petals of the modern roses you’ve always been giving me.
Kate: I thought of expressing my gratitude by giving you a bouquet.
Kate: But apparently, pink roses have another meaning to them.
Liam: Another meaning…?
I picked up one petal from his head.
Kate: It means “happiness”.
Kate: I wanted to shower you with petals signifying gratitude and happiness, because you’ve given me an abundance of them.
Sitting on the bed surrounded by the smell of roses, he fell silent for a moment before chuckling and squinting his eyes as though faced with a bright light.
Liam: I truly am so blessed.
I leaned in and was about to kiss his forehead covered with rose petals, when—
Kate: Whoa!
Liam: Are you okay!?
I slipped and fell right into his chest.
Kate: T-this is embarrassing…
I got on my knees to support my body, he wrapped one arm around my waist and cupped my cheek with the other.
When I lifted my head, I saw that the light of dawn was starting to shine into the room.
Liam: I’ve always wanted to be a star.
Still smiling, he started to speak.
Liam: I thought that everyone would love me if I shined brightly enough. But then I realised, I can’t just turn into a star.
Liam: Because today, you’re the one shining so bright. I’ve always thought so, but you’re especially dazzling today.
(Ah…)
I recalled noticing him gazing at me while squinting his eyes as though dazzled by a bright light.
Liam: You gave me love that was once so out of reach for me, and made my days so bright with happiness that it’s almost terrifying.
Liam: The name of the brightest star in my world is Kate. It shines so brightly and is precious to me beyond words.
Liam: It’s you.
His smile as his joy and love overflowed was so bright, it made me squint my eyes.
There was a star right there before my eyes.
Kate: For me, you’re that star, Liam.
Kate: The person who brings me so much joy and love… you’re my brightest star.
We laughed together and it was soon dawn.
Liam: Well then, because I want to hold onto my brightest star…
With the arm wrapped around my waist, he gently laid me down onto the bed and I rested my body against his.
Liam: Even after the night fades into day, stay shining in my arms.
My heart hammered against my chest as I closed my eyes and waited for a kiss.
— We were each other’s brightest stars, shining brightly through our love.
I made a (rather) detailed spreadsheet including all IkeVil JP events (story, collection, party). I guess it's especially handy for EN players to have a rough estimate when an event will drop in the EN server so that they can plan accordingly. I hope it's helpful to at least one person.
Reblogs are appreciated. :3

2023/04/17 - 2023/04/28,闇夜にひらく悪の恋 Part 1
Wrap
so, since I got all the achievements, here's how to get all the achievements and endings on "a date with death" under the cut!
ALL ENDINGS:
ending 1, semi bad ending. It's honestly the fastest to get. Choose whatever answer you want for the first two days, but during the soul connection on day 3, choose the panicked options as in: “Grim… ma—maybe this is a bad idea…”, and then “I… I think something’s wrong… this doesn’t feel right…”, then “Please… stop…”. The story will finish and you'll get the achievement.
ending 2, you lose the bet (bad ending). Be distant and dismissive, and pick more negative choices throughout the game, don’t water your plant on any of the days. don't open the window to get the flowers until it's your only choice when he shows up with the bouquet, then on day 6 choose: “Vaguely, yeah.” just before the first call, and “I don’t mind. I’ll take the sickness. The taint.”. The story will go on and you'll get the achievement.
ending 3, you win the bet. Be flirty all the way through, do your worst girlie, on day 6 choose: “You really know how to sweep me off my feet.”, “You’re cute. Cute and stupid.” and “How do I stop? What if I give it all away?!”. Once the story is completed you'll get the achievement and a super cute CGI of Grim.
ending 4, dual reapers. Since it's the DLC ending, it doesn't give you an achievement. If you decide to buy it, just choose DLC choices throughout the game, you'll recognise them immediately because there's a ★ next to them, for example: "Do you like me, Casper? ★"
ending 5, wedding. As soon as you suggest what's going to happen if he loses the bet, choose "Your hand in marriage." Joke about a wedding if given the change within the next day. On day 5, choose: “Want to meet the in-laws, Grim?”, and on day 6, choose: “I feel touched!”, and then, “How about a shotgun wedding?”
ALL ACHIEVEMENTS
First Chance at Death: this achievement will pop up as soon as you are finished creating your MC.
The First Day[...] The Sixth Day: you get these achievement as soon as you complete your day in game.
My Little Baby: interact with the pet you choose.
Serenity: water the plant on your bedtable, once is enough for this achievement.
Blooming Flowers: you'll need to water the plant once every day. It's easier if you do this while following any of the good endings.
Untrustworthy: you'll get this achievement once you get ending 1.
Take My Soul: you'll get this achievement once you get ending 2.
Dead Roots: do ths while going for ending 2, don’t water the plant at all. check on it on day 6 and on the last day before chatting; if you click on it by mistake during the previous days, choose not to water it.
Sealed with a Kiss: you'll get this achievement once you get ending 3.
Our Wedding: you'll get this achievement once you get ending 5.
Eavesdropping Champion: interact with the door every single day, and always choose to eavesdrop.
Patience: wait for the very last day. check your Internet browser in game before starting the chat with Casper, and wait for about a minute with the browser open! you'll see a white screen and the text changing from something like "there's nothing here" to "okay, click here to get your achievement", you click on the text and it's done!!!
Announcing the addition of the 11th floor of the Main Stage
Hello, Summoner!
Welcome to Arcana Twilight, the story of the stars at your fingertips.
The story of the stars, a memory of the twilight that never dies, begins…
“Whatever happened before that, whoever I was.”
I hold his hand softly as he rolls his eyes nervously.
“That’s when I lost you.”
Main Stage, Level 11, “Fragments from the Past”
It’s April, and the story of the wizards’ efforts to prevent the collapse of the Moon Tower is about to begin.
