Quotes

[edit]
[Richter Belmont arrives in Dracula's chamber]
Richter Belmont: Die, monster! You don't belong in this world!
Dracula: It was not by my hand that I'm once again given flesh. I was called here by humans who wish to pay me tribute.
Richter: "Tribute"?! You steal men's souls and make them your slaves!
Dracula: Perhaps the same could be said of all religions.
Richter: Your words are as empty as your soul! Mankind ill needs a savior such as you! [Dracula drinks wine]
Dracula: What is a man? [flings his wine glass aside] A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk; Have at you!
[Alucard is met by Death]
Death: Ah, Alucard. What is your business here?
Alucard: I've come to put an end to this.
Death: Still befriending mortals. I'll not ask you to return to our side, but I demand you cease your attack.
Alucard: I will not.
Death: You shall regret those words. We will meet again. [Death steals Alucard's equipment and vanishes]
[In his dreams, Alucard sees his mother Lisa about to be burned on a cross]
Alucard: Mother!
Lisa: That voice! Alucard, it's you!
Alucard: I'm coming, Mother! I'll save you!
Lisa: No, Alucard! Don't come here!
Alucard: But Mother!
Lisa: It's all right! If my death can save others, I gladly surrender my life.
Alucard: Mother! No! Please! No!
Lisa: Yes, Alucard! Watch me die and remember always my last words to you.
Alucard: Yes, Mother.
Lisa: You must despise humans. They are to be your prey.
Alucard: What?!
Lisa: Better for them to die than to let them compound their sins. Begin by slaying that one, over there.
Alucard: No. It wasn't like this.
Lisa: What's wrong? Alucard?
Alucard: My mother never said such a thing.
Lisa: What do you mean? Kill them and bring them happiness!
Alucard: No! You're not my mother! What kind of demon are you?!
[the screen fades to white as Lisa disappears, but Succubus appears and the screen fades back in]
Succubus: [laughing] You broke free of my spell. I like that.
Alucard: Demon, death is too good for you!
Succubus: Come here, little boy, and show me what you've got.
[After defeating the Succubus]
Succubus: Darkling! I smell your blood. You're a vampire. Could it be--? [Alucard doesn't speak] That strength, that beauty. You're the son of Lord Dracula.
Alucard: Death in the dream world will set your soul wandering for eternity, Demon.
Succubus: Wait, I beg of you! [the Succubus moans erotically as the dream fades to white]
[Alucard and Dracula meet face-to-face]
Alucard: Father.
Dracula: Well met, my son! It's been a long time.
Alucard: I was hoping we would not see each other again. I can't allow you to leave here, father.
Dracula: You have ever been the ally of humans. Have you forgotten what they did to your mother?
Alucard: Think you I would forget such a thing? No, but neither do I seek revenge against them.
Dracula: Still uttering the same nonsense. No matter. Now is the time to put aside your weak human side and join me in remaking this world!
Alucard: Dracula, in the name of my mother, I will defeat you again!
Dracula: [approaches Alucard on what appears to be a demonic throne] Behold my true form and despair!
[after defeating Dracula]
Alucard: Go back whence you came! Trouble the soul of my mother no more!
Dracula: How? How--How is it that I've been so defeated?
Alucard: You have been doomed ever since you lost the ability to love.
Dracula: Ha--Ah... Sarcasm. "For what profit is it to a man if he gains the world, and loses his own soul?" Matthew 16:26, I believe. [Alucard doesn't speak] Tell me. What--What were Lisa's last words?
Alucard: She said "Do not hate humans. If you cannot live with them, then at least do them no harm. For theirs is already a hard lot". She also said to tell you that she would love you for all of eternity.
Dracula: [his last words in the game] Lisa, forgive me. Farewell, my son.

[Alucard arrives to see Richter and Maria standing outside]
Alucard: So you've made it.
Maria Renard: Alucard. I'm glad you're alright.
Richter: I'm sorry. 'Tis my fault you had to fight your own father.
Alucard: Fear not. I had my own reasons for destroying him.
Richter: It must have been painful for you.
Alucard: Indeed. But you must always remember that the only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
Richter: I understand.
Maria Renard: Alucard, what will you do now?
Alucard: The blood that flows through my veins is cursed. 'Twould be best for this world if I were to disappear forever.
Maria Renard: I see.
Alucard: Farewell then. We'll not meet again. [Alucard walks away]
Maria Renard: Alucard--
Richter: Don't you want to go after him, Maria?
Maria Renard: No, maybe it is best this way. And some day perhaps, we will meet again. And on that day--
Richter: I see.
Maria Renard: Now let's go. Everyone's waiting for us.
Richter: Yes. Let's get out of here.

Richter: And yourself, dear lady. (Maria runs off after Alucard)
[When attempting to play the PlayStation disc in a CD player]
Alucard: As you can see, this is a PlayStation black disc. Cut #1 contains computer data, so please don't play it. But you probably won't listen to me anyway, will you?
[The disc then proceeds to play a hidden music track. This will also work if you trigger the CD mode of the Sony PlayStation 1 or Sony PlayStation 2.]

Quotes (PSP version)

Konami. Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles. Konami. PlayStation Portable. (in English). (October 23, 2007)

(Richter Belmont arrives in Dracula's chamber)
Richter: Dracula. Die now, and leave this world! You'll never belong here!
Dracula: Oh, but this world invited me. Your own kind called me forth with praise and tribute.
Richter: Tribute? You're a thief. You steal men's souls, their freedom...
Dracula: Freedom is always sacrificed to faith, good hunter. Or are you truly here by choice?
Richter: All I'm here for is you. To hell with your heresy! You're nothing but a blight on mankind.
Dracula: Ha! Mankind. (flings his wine glass aside) A cesspit of hatred and lies. Fight for them, then, and die for their sins!
(Alucard is met by Death)
Death: Ah, Alucard. What is your business here?
Alucard: I've come to put an end to this.
Death: Ever the insolent boy... but there'll no games here. If you will not behave, begone.
Alucard: I will do neither. Step aside, old man.
Death: Ha! Such arrogance. Very well... but I shall see you very soon. (Death steals Alucard's equipment and vanishes)
(Alucard and Dracula meet face-to-face)
Alucard: Father...
Dracula: Well met, my son! It's been a long time.
Alucard: Not nearly long enough. I can't allow you to leave here, Father.
Dracula: Do you still side with humanity? Have you forgotten what they did to your mother?
Alucard: You think I would forget such a...! No. But neither do I seek revenge against them.
Dracula: Enough of your nonsense! Away with your humanity! Stand with me as Prince of all the world!
Alucard: You will never touch this world again. In Mother's name, I swear it!
Dracula: (approaches Alucard on what appears to be a demonic throne) Tremble before my true form!
(After defeating Dracula)
Alucard: Go back to the abyss! Trouble the soul of my mother no more!
Dracula: H-How?! How could I have lost?!
Alucard: You lost your heart. Your soul. You'll never win without them.
Dracula: Ah, how poetic. So I tragically sacrificed all I held dear in a search for power, did I?
Alucard: Did you not?
Dracula: Hmph. Tell me. What... What were Lisa's last words?
Alucard: She said, "Do not hate humans. If you cannot live with them, then at least do them no harm, for theirs is already a hard lot." ...She also said that she would love you. For eternity.
Dracula: Lisa, forgive me. Farewell, my son.
[Alucard arrives to see Richter and Maria standing outside]
Alucard: So you made it.
Maria: Alucard! You're all right!
Richter: So you had to fight your own father? It's my fault. If I hadn't been so weak, we wouldn't be here.
Alucard: Not so. I had my own reason to face him.
Richter: Still... It couldn't have been easy.
Alucard: It wasn't. But remember "The only thing necessary for evil to triumph..."
Richter: "...is for good men to do nothing."
Maria: So, what now, Alucard?
Alucard: The blood in my veins is cursed. It's best for the world if I disappear, now and forever.
Maria: I see.
Alucard: Farewell, then. We'll not meet again.
Maria: Alucard.
Richter: Well, are you going after him, or not?
Maria: I'm sorry. I have to follow him. I can't just--
Richter: It's all right! Hurry up and catch him. If anyone can save him, you can.
Maria: Thank you, Richter. For everything.
Richter: Thank you... Maria.
