SCENE 143 The Bond Left Behind
Frame 5
Miata...
Clarice is...
Frame 6
Mama...
Mama died...
Side:
The warriors destroyed the awakened Europa and succeeded in defending the holy city. But in exchange for victory, Clarice turned to dust.

Page 2
Frame 1
Back when I was much smaller than now,
Frame 2
A really, really long time ago...
Frame 3
Mi...
Miata...?
Frame 4
Papa wasn't there from the start,
and it was just mama and me,
it was always just mama and me living together.
Frame 5
Youma killed mama,
and a woman carrying a sword killed the youma,
and then I was all alone.
(lit. and with that I became all alone)
Frame 7
I wonder why...
It seems like
I had forgotten about mama all this time...

Page 03
Frame 1
Miata, did you...
forget about Clarice...?
(the Japanese sentence omits "forget")
Frame 2
Cla...
rice...?
Frame 4
O...oi! What are you saying?
You were constantly together with her, all into her breasts and all...
Frame 7
Will you close your eyes for me, Miata?
I'll cast a good-luck charm on you.
A charm?
Frame 8
A charm that will help you get even stronger.
I will always, always
Frame 10
Clarice...
don't tell me you...

Page 4
Frame 1
Back then, did you erase
all of the memories of you from inside Miata...?

Page 5
Frame 1
butsu
Frame 2
So that Miata's heart wouldn't fall into chaos because you disappeared,
for the sake of us warriors around you,
and of course for Miata's sake as well?
Frame 3
It certainly saved Miata and us, but...
are you really okay with that, Clarice?
Your entire presence within Miata was completely lost!
Frame 4
Mama died such a long time ago,
butsu
so long ago that I can't recall when...
Frame 5
This happened so long ago...
and yet, why...

Page 6
Frame 1
why am I so sad now,
why I'm shedding so many tears...
Frame 4
Why?
Somehow there's such a clump in my throat,
(苦しい is a little hard to translate, it's used when something is hard to bear or when it's hard to breathe, so I think this might express it)
and I'm so sad...
Frame 5
I really,
really
miss her so badly...

Go ahead and cry.
Remember your dearly missed mother
and cry to your heart's content.

Frame 2
Mama!

Page 9
Frame 4
Be proud,
Clarice...
Frame 5
What saved Miata, us, and the people of the holy city that you wanted to protect
was unmistakably your strength.
Frame 6
As a warrior,
and as a comrade who fought together with us,
Frame 7
even if you disappeared from Miata's memories,
your heart/soul will stay with us.

Frame 5
Wh...
What's going on? Everyone suddenly stopped moving...

Page 12
Frame 1
The battle between Priscilla and the other one
has ended.
Frame 4
The one who survived is Priscilla...
As a result of the battle, Priscilla's power has indeed dropped, but
the difference is much less than we had originally assumed.
Frame 5
We on the other hand have not reached a conclusion to this situation
and are still whittling away at each other's strength.
Frame 6
If we continue like this, regardless who wins,
they won't have enough strength left to oppose Priscilla.
Frame 7
Err...

Page 13
Frame 1-2
ooo
Frame 7
The blades of people I don't know are swinging down onto my body.

Page 14
Frame 1
While my body is being slashed,
I crawl on the ground and slash back with my own blade.
Frame 3
Ah, I see.
Frame 6
It's completely the same
as back then.

What's with her!?
She suddenly got stronger!
Frame 2
No.
Up until now, she merely dodged the attacks coming at her and countered appropriately.
Frame 3
Now, she has started to attack us for the first time
of her own volition as enemies that should be defeated.

Frame 3
Miria, let's do it!
Let's go back to your original plan!
Frame 4
Let's pitch her against Priscilla!
Now that she's moving by her own volition, she should recognize Priscilla as an enemy.
Frame 6
W... Wait!
If we do that and she were to be absorbed,
Priscilla's finally reduced strength would return yet again!

Page 20

So what, the plan is not bad!
Either way, at this rate things are just getting worse and worse.

Chronos!
Frame 2
Do whatever you want!
I'm going to take revenge for Lars!
Frame 3
Oh my, oh my!
As if you could...
Frame 4
You should have realized by now
that Europa was right when she ran away back then.

Page 22
Frame 1
The responsibility and solitude of one who once reigned at the top of their era,
the power of conceit of not being number two or three,
that's exactly why abyssals can be abyssals.
Frame 2
oooo
Frame 3
The symbol of power of that era...
The burden of her awakening is different from the number two and lower warriors who chased after her and hid in her shadows.
Frame 4
Tch...

Frame 3
Damn!
Damn!
How could I let this happen!
What god of misfortune (lit. plague) is accompanying me!?

Page 24
Frame 1
The annihilation of the organization,
the collapse of the experimental island,
I should have just returned to the continent with these facts!
Frame 2
I succumbed to the desire to see the strongest being...
No matter how much I race this horse,
I don't even have a shred of sense that I might get away...

Frame 4
Are my
guts any good...?

Page 26
Frame 1
They're awful.
The guts of old men are just barely better than youma.
Frame 2
Kukuku, is that so...
And yet they're being eaten like this and becoming part of your flesh and blood.
It's utmost bliss to me.
Frame 3
Aren't you going to die?
I wish.
It's just that my body is all patched together, as you can see.
Frame 4
It'll just take me ever so slightly longer than ordinary people to lose consciousness.
Don't worry, I'll die properly before long.
Frame 5
gaji
I see...
gucha

Page 27
Frame 1
Just out of curiosity,
is the flesh and blood of young children tastier after all?
Frame 2
Apart from old folks, there's not that much of a difference.
I like young men best, followed by young women.
Young boys are good but there's not enough to satisfy my appetite.
Frame 3
The fact that you prefer men as long as they don't taste bad
makes me think that eating is a form of sexual desire.
Eating in itself could already be called sexual intercourse.
You're disgusting!
(Lit. Don't say such disgusting things)
gashi

Frame 4
By the way, what about young girls?
They weren't mentioned in what you said just now.

Page 28
Frame 1
Kukuku...
Frame 2
I see, I see.
I shouldn't have asked.
Please forget about it.
Frame 3
What are you talking about?
What's so funny?
Frame 4
You seem surprised, but...
(this first bubble is hard to translate, it's a rebuke on "what are you talking about")
You've never tasted the flesh and blood of a young girl, have you?
Frame 6
You can't see them.
You can't see young girls, can you?

Page 29
Frame 1
Far from it, they're locked away in the depths of your consciousness,
and their very existence disappeared completely,
didn't it?
Frame 3
The reason
is probably very simply.
Frame 4
The moment your human heart was wiped out in your battle as a warrior,
you laid a curse on yourself,
a curse that prevented you from seeing young girls.
(lit. that prevented young girls from being reflected in your eyes)
Frame 5
A curse,
you say?
Frame 6
If you dislike the term "curse",
you could call it a constraint.

Page 30-31
Frame 1
The moment you awakened,
you were shocked by the size of the power being released,
and you mustered the last of your mental strength as a human and succeeded in placing a constraint on yourself that erased young girls, and young girls only, from your consciousness.
Frame 2
The presence of young girls...
that is, the presence of those that are to become warriors.
In other words, you entrusted it to the future warriors, the emergence of someone who would kill you.
Frame 4
That's the final resistance that the human Priscilla was able to put up against you.

That determination surpasses time...
