The Daughter of Evil is a song released by Akuno-P on April 4, 2008 and later uploaded with a PV two days later. It is the third song of the Seven Deadly Sins Series, depicting Pride, and is the first song in The Daughter of Evil Series.
Description[]
A song depicting the story of the noble girl who became the ruler of a certain historically prosperous kingdom once upon a time.
A medieval-narrative style composition with a different flavor.
The story of the noble girl who became the ruler of the glorious kingdom of Lucifenia once upon a time.
Evillious year 500. The Lucifenian Revolution [superbia]
Plot[]
The song takes place in Lucifenia, a country stated to be of unspeakable inhumanity that is ruled by a fourteen-year-old princess, Riliane Lucifen d'Autriche. The song goes on to list how she has a servant that shares her face, a favorite horse named Josephine and all the treasures of the world. She acquired these treasures from stealing money from the peasants in her kingdom and she expresses an intent to destroy everyone in her way.
On top of this, the song reveals she is in love with Kyle Marlon, the blue-haired king of another land. However, instead of the princess, he chooses the green-haired Michaela. Fueled by rage and jealousy, she orders the destruction of the girl's country and all the women in it. While many houses are burned down and many people suffer, Riliane happily enjoys her teatime.
Finally, all the enraged citizens of Lucifenia conspire to take down the evil princess. They are led by a swordswoman wearing red armor and are not stopped by the soldiers due to the tolls of the war with Elphegort. At last, they surrounded the palace, although all the servants had already fled and the "princess" is finally captured. She's scheduled to be executed at three o'clock. At that time, she looks upon the crowd and simply says "It's teatime" before she is beheaded by the guillotine.
Lyrics[]
お ほ ほ ほ ほ
さあ、ひざまずきなさい!
むかしむかしあるところに
悪逆非道の王国の
頂点に君臨するは
齢十四の王女様
絢爛豪華な調度品
顔のよく似た召使
愛馬の名前はジョセフィーヌ
全てが全て彼女のもの
お金が足りなくなったなら
愚民どもから搾りとれ
私に逆らう者たちは
粛清してしまえ
「さあ、ひざまずきなさい!」
悪の華 可憐に咲く
鮮やかな彩りで
周りの哀れな雑草は
嗚呼 養分となり朽ちていく
暴君王女が恋するは
海の向こうの青い人
だけども彼は隣国の
緑の女にひとめぼれ
嫉妬に狂った王女様
ある日大臣を呼び出して
静かな声で言いました
「緑の国を滅ぼしなさい」
幾多の家が焼き払われ
幾多の命が消えていく
苦しむ人々の嘆きは
王女には届かない
「あら、おやつの時間だわ」
悪の華 可憐に咲く
狂おしい彩りで
とても美しい花なのに
嗚呼 棘が多すぎて触れない
悪の王女を倒すべく
ついに人々は立ち上がる
烏合の彼らを率いるは
赤き鎧の女剣士
つもりにつもったその怒り
国全体を包み込んだ
長年の戦で疲れた
兵士たちなど敵ではない
ついに王宮は囲まれて
家臣たちも逃げ出した
可愛く可憐な王女様
ついに捕らえられた
「この 無礼者!」
悪の華 可憐に咲く
悲しげな彩りで
彼女のための楽園は
嗚呼 もろくもはかなく崩れてく
むかしむかしあるところに
悪逆非道の王国の
頂点に君臨してた
齢十四の王女様
処刑の時間は午後三時
教会の鐘が鳴る時間
王女と呼ばれたその人は
一人牢屋で何を思う
ついにその時はやってきて
終わりを告げる鐘が鳴る
民衆などには目もくれず
彼女はこういった
「あら、おやつの時間だわ」
悪の華 可憐に散る
鮮やかな彩りで
のちの人々はこう語る
嗚呼 彼女は正に悪ノ娘

Oh ho ho ho ho
Come, kneel to me
Once upon a time
Reigning at the top
Of a fiendish kingdom was
A noble girl of age 14
Luxurious and splendid furnishings
A servant whose face greatly resembled hers
A favorite horse named Josephine
Everything, everything was hers
If there wasn’t enough money
Choke it from the ignorant masses
Those that would oppose me
Completely purge them
“Come, kneel to me!”
The flower of evil sweetly blooms
With brilliant color
The pitiful weeds around her
Indeed, they’ll turn to nourishment and rot away
The tyrant princess was in love with
A blue man of across the sea
Though he fell in love at first sight
With a green woman in the neighboring country
The princess, mad with jealousy
One day summoned her cabinet minister
And said in a quiet voice
“Send to ruin the kingdom of green”
Many houses reduced to ashes
Many lives disappearing
The suffering people’s lamentations
Don’t reach the princess
“Oh, it’s tea time”
The flower of evil sweetly blooms
With maddening color
Although it’s a very lovely flower
Indeed, there are too many thorns to touch it
To overthrow the evil princess
At last the people rose up
Leading the disorderly mob was
A female swordsman in red armor
Their rage accumulated in conviction
Wrapped up the whole country
Soldiers tired from the long war
Weren’t a threat
Finally they surrounded the palace
The retainers escaped
The adorable and lovely princess
At last was captured
“You insolent thug!”
The flower of evil sweetly blooms
With colors that seem sad
The paradise for her
Indeed will collapse, brittle and transient
Once upon a time
There was a noble girl of age 14
Who reigned at the top
Of a fiendish kingdom
The time of her execution was 3 PM
A time when church bells would ring
That person who was called princess
What did they think, alone in jail?
Finally that time arrived
The bells signaling the end ring
Without taking notice of the crowd
She said
“Oh, it’s tea time”
The flower of evil pitifully scatters
With brilliant color
Afterwards, people will say
Indeed, she was certainly the Daughter of Evil

Trivia[]
Conceptualization and Origin[]
- The Lucifenian Revolution is based on historical events of the French Revolution, as Lucifenia itself is based on France and Riliane on Marie Antoinette.
- The phrase "of Evil" (aku no) is commonly used to characterize the songs' themes such as "The Daughter of Evil Series" and "Deadly Sins of Evil"; the creator of the Evillious Chronicles, mothy, also uses the name "Akuno-P".
- The song's English title, "The princess of lucifer", is a reference to Lucifer, the patron Demon of Pride.
- The song mentions The Daughter of Evil owning a horse; the horse is often the representative animal of pride.
Curiosities[]
- Like the other songs in the Seven Deadly Sins Series, the song begins with the phrase "さあ" (Saa) immediately after the singer's opening laughter.
- Several of the lyrics during the song mirror that of The Servant of Evil.
- The Lunacy of Duke Venomania makes a reference to Josephine, Riliane's horse; in the song, one of Sateriasis Venomania's victims is "Josephine Francois", a woman whose age and occupation are censored.
- Allen's pose in the original song PV is similar to the Evils Court depiction of the Master of the Heavenly Yard.
- The song was rearranged by mothy shortly after the release of Kagamine Rin Act 2, titled "The Daughter of Evil (Modified Version)", a revised track to improve the smoothness of sound quality while keeping it close to the sound of the original Act 1 song.
- Another rearranged version of the song with an updated PV was released by mothy, titled "The Daughter of Evil ~velvet mix~", in celebration of Rin's second anniversary. This version was included in the album Prelude to Forest.
- Both the song and its sequel were also rearranged into a single song titled "The Daughter and Servant of Evil", an instrumental track included in Four Melodies of Evil ~The Daughter of Evil Novel Music Collection~.
- The Daughter and Servant of Evil, along with another arrangement by Travolta-P, titled "The Daughter of Evil Arranged Version", was included in The Daughter of Evil: BGM Reading Collection in promotion of The Daughter of Evil: Act 1.
- While commenting about the song, mothy expressed that, like The Servant of Evil, he was tired of listening to the song after reworking it so many times;[1] afterward, he admitted that there wouldn't be Akuno-P if it weren't for the song.[2]
- The Daughter of Evil is featured in the 3DS game, Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project Mirai.
- Riliane's laugh is inspired by Satoko Hojo from "Higurashi When They Cry", mothy being inspired after seeing her blonde hair and resemblence to Kagamine Rin.[3]
