Chapter 9 – A
Singing Voice Echoes Across the Water
Redau: So you finally showed up.
Ivar: Milla-sa…
Ivar: Oh, it's just you. How misleading.
Milla: Huh?
Milla: You're just always getting mixed up in everything and messing
things up and saying whatever comes to mind, aren't you?
Ivar: P, please excuse me…
Ivar: Hmph, she's a lot stricter than Milla-sama…
Jude: I think so too.
Ivar: Milla-sama… won't return, will she?
Jude: …Yeah. Musee seems to be looking for her though.
Ivar: I see…
Elle: Hey, why is Redau wearing those weird glasses?
Ivar: He's trying to hide something.
Ivar: He tripped and fell when Julius escaped.
Elle: Hehe, I want to see!
Ivar: It'll make you laugh for sure.
Redau: Let's begin the search!
Ivar: Understood, Division Manager!
Redau: We've been following his trail based on eyewitness reports, but
the trail ends here at this port. We'll split up and search.
Jude: We should search the western part of the highway.
Elise: Then we should head towards Ha Mil.
Tipo: It's been a while!
Ivar: We should search the seas.
Gaius: I'll join you.
Ivar: Eh, why!?
Gaius: I'm interested in you agents.
Redau: A king that's bursting with curiosity.
Gaius: Is surprising, right?
Ivar: This group is going to be…
Redau: Capture Julius alive.
Redau: We must recover what he stole.
==========================
???: Ahhh!
Tipo: I, it's Musee!
Elise: Are you bullying the villagers!?
Musee: I am not.
Milla: Sister!
Musee: Milla!?
Musee: …No, you're not, are you?
Musee: Just who are you?
Milla: …
Milla: It's nice to meet you. I'm the former Maxwell.
Musee: What's going on?
Musee: An alternate timeline, the Land of Canaan…
Milla: Do you know something?
Musee: Who knows?
Woman: I found you! You parange thief!
Tipo: Musee stole!?
Musee: Well, I was just suddenly so hungry you see.
Elle: Spirits get hungry too!?
Musee: Only when we feel like it.
Musee: Milla taught me how wonderful food can be.
Elle: I see.
Milla: …It wasn't me.
Vel: We've discovered the entry point to the alternate timeline we
believe ex-Division Manager Julius entered.
Vel: There is a high probability this alternate timeline contains a
guiding sign.
Elise: Let's go after him, Ludger.
Musee: You should be careful. It almost seems like that Julius person
is inviting you.
Milla: Even so, we can't just let him get away.
Musee: Hey Ludger, will you take me along too?
-L1: I don't mind, but why? (Musee +)
-R1: No.
L1 Route:
Musee: I'm worried about this child.
Musee: Milla always seems to attract trouble.
Milla: Mind your own business.
Elle: We've added another strange person to our group.
Woman: Hey, you. If she's going with you then pay up for the parange!
==========================
Elle: Ah! What a strange and pretty
shell!
Elise: This area is dangerous, Elle.
Milla: I don't understand why you insist on dragging that child around with you.
Ludger: ...
Musee: Perhaps it's because humans seem to be so much stronger when they have something to protect.
Milla: Was it the same for you?
Musee: Who knows? I'm not human after all.
Milla: ...No, you're not, are you?
Musee: But, I don't want to be alone anymore.
Milla: ...Yeah.
Ludger: Wha!?
Elise: This area is dangerous, Elle.
Milla: I don't understand why you insist on dragging that child around with you.
Ludger: ...
Musee: Perhaps it's because humans seem to be so much stronger when they have something to protect.
Milla: Was it the same for you?
Musee: Who knows? I'm not human after all.
Milla: ...No, you're not, are you?
Musee: But, I don't want to be alone anymore.
Milla: ...Yeah.
Ludger: Wha!?
Milla: What, now you're wandering off
too?
Milla: Honestly, you're just like Elle.
Milla: You're certainly relaxed for someone on the run, sitting there humming.
Julius: It's a habit. It's a song that's been passed down in my family.
Julius: It's a song about longing to meet someone called the "Song of Proof."*
Julius: And look, the person I wanted to meet came after all.
-L1: Julius, you really like that song, don't you? (Julius +)
-R1: Didn't you already know that I would come?
L1 Route:
Julius: Aren't you the one that really likes it?
Julius: When you were a baby all I had to do was sing this song to make you happy.
Julius: Do you remember when we were younger and got lost on that mountain when we were camping?
Julius: You were so scared of the thunder and that we might run into a bear.
Julius: ...But all I had to do was sing that song and you were able to hold back your tears and keep walking.
Julius: I even offered to carry you, but you insisted on walking on your own.
Julius: We kept walking all night long, and when we finally reached the village at the foot of the mountain our feet were worn out and our throats were parched, weren't they?
Ludger: ...
Milla: You don't really want to talk about your past, do you?
Julius: Certainly not. Let's get to the point.
Julius: There's just the matter of that watch remaining.
Julius: Have that girl, Elle, hand the watch to me.
Milla: You certainly have a dangerous hobby.**
Julius: If you refuse, I'll just take it by force.
Ludger: ...
Julius: Ludger... why are you going to such lengths for this girl?
-L1: Because she's necessary.
-R1: Because I made a promise to her. That we would go to the Land of Canaan together. (Elle +)
R1 Route:
Julius: You must not. If you go to that place it will only end in sorrow for everyone.
Ludger: ...
Milla: What do you know about it?
Ludger: I know the heartlessness of Origin's judgment.
Julius: Please listen to me, Ludger! I just want you...
Elle: Ahhhhhh...!
Ludger: !
Milla: That's Elle's voice!
Julius: The time factor!
Elle: Ahhh....
Elise: That monster used some weird spirit artes on Elle!
Tipo: Our healing artes aren't working!
Musee: It's using... demon artes!?
Milla: Out of the way!
Milla: It disappeared!?
Julius: What are demon artes?
Musee: They're spirit artes with the power to destroy life. You can only cancel their effects by killing the caster.
Milla: The caster... you mean that monster?
Musee: Yes, the Phantom Water Beast.
Milla: Isn't that one of the guiding signs of Canaan!?
Musee: It's a species that was wiped out in the true timeline.
Musee: It's a monster that attacks its prey with demon artes while concealing its form, and then when its prey can no longer move, it reveals itself and sucks the blood of its prey.
Ludger: ...!
Milla: Honestly, you're just like Elle.
Milla: You're certainly relaxed for someone on the run, sitting there humming.
Julius: It's a habit. It's a song that's been passed down in my family.
Julius: It's a song about longing to meet someone called the "Song of Proof."*

Elise: No, Elle!
Elise: You've got to hang in there or Varnish will never come!

Milla: Elise, if you overuse your Gate like that, then you too will...
Elise: But I promised!

Ludger: …
-L1: I'll lure it
out! (Elle +)
-R1: There must be something we can do…
(Julius +)
L1 Route:
Milla: What? How?
Ludger: Gah!
Elise: What are you
doing!?
Tipo: So much blood!
Milla: Don't tell me…
You're planning to lure out the Phantom Beast with the smell of your blood!?
Julius: You would go
that far…
Musee: She must be
important to him.
Milla: It's here!
Julius: Ludger!
Ludger: !?
Julius: …It's
important so don't let it out of your sight.
Julius: No matter
what happens!
Julius: Gahhh…!
Ludger: Uwaaaah!

Ludger: Ahhhh!!
Milla: His Corpse
Shell!
Musee: Changed!?

Elle?
Milla: Thank goodness…
Elle: Guiding signs!
You have two of them!
Tipo: Julius-san
returned it.
(bonus scene if you completed Elise
Episode 1)
Elle: Elise, I have a
feeling you were scolding me.
Elise: No, I was just
trying to encourage you.
Elle: Hmm… well
either way is fine I guess.
Elle: …Thanks.
Tipo: So unusually kind.
Elle: Th, that's
right!
Elle: If I'm not a
good kid, Varnish won't come after all!
-L1: I want to say
thanks too. (Elise +)
-R1: Elise, you're sure
strong. (Elise +)
L1 Route:
Elise: It was
nothing.
Tipo: Elise is older
than Elle after all, she has to look out for her.
(end bonus scene)
Musee: Are you
worried about your brother?
-L1: Of course. He's
my only brother after all.
-R1: Julius will be
alright, I'm sure of it. (Musee +)
R1 Route:
Musee: You really
believe in him, don't you?
Musee: I'm jealous.
*As
in proof of affection, I think. It was a weird choice of words.
**I assume she means fiddling with these watches? Or attacking the party? Or destroying alternate timelines? Not sure.
**I assume she means fiddling with these watches? Or attacking the party? Or destroying alternate timelines? Not sure.
***He
actually made reference to a puffer fish. Basically meaning poisonous.

ノヴァからのコール８ [main]
Call
from Nova 8
Nova: Nova, reporting in~! You are now free to go to Lu Rondo Port and
Deel.
Nova: I was supposed to go to Deel for a business trip, but…
Elle: Business… trip?*
Nova: Yeah, a trip for work. If you look at it like that, it sounds
like a lot of trouble though.
Elle: I get it. Elle has lots of troubles to deal with too.
Ludger: Sigh…
*Elle doesn't understand the
vocabulary here.
