Asubaru: Here, this is to express my wish for you to get well soon. It is only one flower. I hope you don't mind. Hilda: Thankyou. Asubaru: Has Rodrique gone out? Where could he possibly be at this hour? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 41 Woman: Only Rabi....no, Maruka, knows. Asubaru: What the! Well in that case, it's bound to be completely unreliable information. % Asubaru: I wanted to find him to confirm with him --- % Asubaru: The evil I suddenly sensed in that moment. % Asubaru: Let's hope I'm just worrying too much. Iria: Brother ----! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 42 Iria: Hey, have you seen my brother anywhere? Piki: Purupuru Iria: Really! How can he not be around, just when I have something spectacular to show him! Iria: Lately, brother has been going out a lot for all sorts of reasons. Iria: Something about fighting to gain control of some territories, I'm not at all interested in that. Iria: I only want to continue this carefree way of living. Iria: Because here in the spirit world, there is no restricting bounds. Iria: I love freedom. Iria: I hate troublesome things! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 43 Iria: I want to eat the best foods, to have all the fun I want. I want to live surrounded by all of my favourite things! Iria: Ne, beautiful one. Are you interested in fighting over territories? Iria: That's not allowed! You belong to me. I don't want you to always speak of such barbaric things as war. Iria: I know because all you men are the same! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 44 Iria: You only need to remain this way, to bring me pleasure when I look at you, forever. Iria: For ever and ever --- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 45 Iria: Brother! Brother Karoun! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 46 Iria: What are you doing? Iria: Aren't you my brother's lackeys? Masked men: From this point on is the sacred grounds which only the ruler of the spirit world can tread. We can't make any exceptions, even for the ruler's sister. Iria: I have something I need to tell my brother. Iria: Don't get in my way. How very annoying, isn't my brother back? Let me see him. Masked men: Miss Iria! Ah! You can't do this! Karoun: What's all this noise about? Iria: Karoun! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 47 Iria: Why did you leave me here all by myself? Stupid, stupid! Stupid brother! Iria: Where on earth have you been? Karoun: As always, you are a spoiled child, Iria. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 48 Karoun: You are all dismissed. Iria: Bidehhh --- Karoun: I've been to the human world to have a look. Iria: The human world? Was it any fun? Karoun: Don't be silly. Iria: Mmn---Mmmmn---- Karoun: I met the leader of Azaru. Karoun: He's an amazing person. Karoun: I think he and I can become good friends. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 49 % Karoun: Very, very good friends.... Iria: Over here over here. Karoun: What's this treasure you've acquired? Karoun: It's not one of those strange odds and ends you always bring home again, is it? Iria: Hey, what do you mean by "again"! Iria: Look, isn't he a fabulous work of art? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 50 % Karoun: This....! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 51 Iria: Is something wrong, brother? % Karoun: It is the count of the demon world...! Karoun: !! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 52 Karoun: Iria! Iria: !? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 53 Laures: Where is....this place? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 54 Karoun: Welcome to the spirit world, count Laures of the demon world. Iria: Count of the demon world? Laures: Spirit world...although it belongs to the demon world , it still counts as having fallen into your territory? Laures: Lord Karon of the spirit world. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 55 Karoun: You even know the name of someone living in such a far-out place like me, you are indeed very knowledgeable. My sister seems to have been discourteous to you. Karoun: To express my sincerest apologies, I cordially invite you to be a guest at my humble castle. Will you grace us with your presence? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 56 Laures: One would never guess taht you're so obstinate a person, Karoun. Laures: It belies your appearance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 57 Karoun: I never imagined that something I've never given a thought about before would drop from the sky right into my lap like that. Karoun: I fancy, he should be of great advantage to me. Karoun: But, you were too careless. How could you not report to me clearly of everything that happens in the spirit world, no matter big or small? Masked man: I understand that I was wrong. Karoun: If there's one thing I hate most, it is carelessness. Karoun: See? This is your "Flower of Life". Karoun: But I guess it's not needed anymore, is it? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 58 Iria: It's uselss trying to escape. Iria: Those guards are watching your every move. Laures: Escape? What made you think --- Laures: I want to escape? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 59 Iria: It seems that you've got someone you love very much. You are desperate to go see her. Iria: Your thoughts are filled with her. Iria: And then that girl was injured....oh! Iria: Hey! Why did you shield yourself so suddenly? ( % That hurts when it happens! ) Laures: Who told you to read other's thoughts without permission. Iria: What can it hurt? Not like that you'll lose anything by it, don't be petty. Iria: ! Laures: Fine then, I'll let you read my mind all you want! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 60 Iria: ! Iria: Ah---.... Iria: --- ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 61 Iria: You're so mean! Forcing your way into my mind and rummaging through my memories. Iria: I hate barbarians like you! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 62 % Iria: ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 63 Iria: You can all dismiss. Iria: I'm alright. % Iria: This person might be tough. Masked men: ! Iria: !? Iria: No don't! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 64 Iria: Didn't even need to lift a finger.... Iria: Kyaaaah! Karoun: Can you please stop that? You'll scare my sister. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 65 Laures: I am a guest of your castle afterall, so I felt inclined to display some courtesy. But you sent these men to keep watch on me, and made me very agitated. Laures: I will therefore be blunt and ask, what do you want of me? Karoun: You're mistaken. It's only because I didn't have the heart to leave you in such a battered state. Karoun: Because Hades is a country that knowingly administers the "confinement of life" . --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 66 Karoun: Back to the subject, you are indeed powerful. To be able to wield such power despite of heavy injuries, you totally surprised me. Yet, you are already at your limit, are you not? % Laures: ---! What's this smell? % Laures: Dammit! % Laures: My power is slowly dwindling away. Karoun: This is the fragrance of the illusionary flower. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 67 Karoun: Isn't it fascinating? It has no effect against those who belong to the spirit world, but against outlanders it achieves instant results. Karoun: Sweet dreams, Count Laues of the demon world. Karoun: Iria, make sure you watch over him well. I've already prepared the medicine. Iria: Say it isn't so, brother! After he did such a terrible thing to me? Karoun: Don't worry, --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 68 Karoun: As long as the illusionary flowers continue to bloom. Karoun: He will not wake up. Karoun: And then when he recovers from his injuries. Karoun: And wakes. Karoun: Who's to say that he hasn't already become our biddable ally? Karoun: At times like these, the "illusionary flower" is of the greatest help to us. % Iria: Illusionary flowers have the ability to erase one's memories. % Iria: And the ability to brainwash! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 69 % Iria: Ah, so he will be made to forget everything.... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 70 % Iria: That time, when he forced his emotions into my heart, that emotion was so strong and powerful. % Iria: And so profound, I think it is a kind of hopeless despair --- a kind of sadness. % Iria: A kind of endless darkness. % Iria: However there was something surrounded by a golden light, it was a face --- % Iria: Although Laures immediately closed off his heart, the image was already sketched deep into my mind's eye. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- paeg 71 Iria: You must --- Iria: Care for that person very much, right? Iria: To the point where you condemn yourself to fall into an everlasting chasm of darkness for her. Iria: Brother wants you to forget even that. Iria: That's so mean. Even if he's my brother.... % Iria: I envy that woman, to have someone so adoring. % Iria: ! Iria: Alright! Iria: Sorry, I know you are all innocent. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 72 Iria: Fall, Illusionary Flowers! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 73 Iria: Just now there's no one looking, I'm just rambling on by myself. Iria: The exit is on the opposite side to the left. Be careful of my brother. Laures: Iria. Iria: ! % Iria: Hm? He remembered... % Iria: My name.... Iria: There are many dragons at the dock, you can pick one you like and ride away. Laures: Thankyou. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- page 74 Iria blushes % Iria: I wonder what kind of a girl.... % Iria: is Laures is love with. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Return to The Seimaden Translations
