Fairy Tail 147

Guidelines For Using My Translations

[TN: After returning from Japan, completing a hellish assignment (including losing about two hundred words in a crash and having to retype them from scratch), taking a breather and getting somewhat addicted to Tales of VS, I'm finally back and getting down to work on my backlog! Installment 2: three chapters of Fairy Tail.]

Fairy Tail
[Insert text top-right: Going strong in France, too!!]

Chapter 147: Guild of Hope
Erza: GÉRAAARD!!!!
[Insert text: The price of destroying Nirvana is his own life?! // Surpassing his past crimes, can these lost memories thwart the encroaching darkness?!]

[Side text: Mashima's Ramblings: The anime cast is so star-studded, I'm taken aback. My hype for this has just soared sky-high!]
Cobra: (He means to take the release code for the magical array with him to the grave?!)
Erza: I won't allow it!!!! // I will not allow you to die like this!!!! // You have sins to bear!!!! // Remember!!!! Don't you dare try and pass away in happy ignorance!!!! // What kind of way is that to atone for all the pain you have caused?!!!!

4
Erza: Get up and fight!!!!! // GÉRAAAAAAARD!!!!

5
Gérard: Erza... // Why... // ...do you shed tears... // You truly are kind...
Erza: Gérard!!!! // Get a hold of yourself!!!!
Brain: What exactly is all this...?
Everyone: !!

6
Brain: A Self-Destruct Array...
[Box: Oración Seis / Brain]
Cobra: Brain... // Gérard cast this damn array!!! // This is bad!!! At this rate, Nirvana will be destroyed!! After all this...!!!

7
Brain: Fear not, Cobra. // Do you not recall why I am known by the codename of "Brain"?
[TN: Dammit. "Blaine" sounded so much cooler ~~]
Brain: I was once a member of the the Magic Development Bureau. // During my time there, the spells that used my knowledge and skills to create number in the hundreds. // One of those spells is this Self-Destruct Array. // It was I who taught it to you. // Have you forgotten that, Gérard? // I need no release code...

8
Brain: I can simply neutralise the very array itself. // That is my power.
Gérard: No...
Cobra: Ahhhhh...!!!!
Brain: You placed a Self-Destruct Array upon your own body as well?
Gérard: Unghh...
Brain: Did you mean to leave this world and take the release code with you?

9
Cobra: It looks like the Aetherion has done some damage to his memory.
[TN: Uh, it actually says "Aethernano". Is that a typo? >_<]
Cobra: He didn't even remember his own villainy.
Brain: My, my... how amusing. // Hahahahahah!!!! You miserable creature, Gérard!!!! // Nirvana... is mine now!!!!
Erza: Not a chance!!!!
Brain: Awaken!! Nirvana!!!
Erza: !!! // Guaahhh!
Gérard: Erza!!!!

Brain: SHOW YOURSELF!!!!
Cobra: Ahhhhhhh!!!! // I can hear it!!!! The sound of our future!!!! The crumbling of the light!!!!
Erza: Gérard!!!
Gérard: Erza!!!
