MX0 90 – High Wall

"This is a Franky House Translation. However, if you want to use it please just ask permission in this thread"

I got wind of news that some guys on MH are going to do MX0 as well. I don't like the idea of doing double work, so I've decided to drop out of the 'competition'.
MX0 90 will be the last chapter that I'll translate. I'm sorry I had to do this but my added responsibilities and coming exams are wearing me down. This might've happened at a good time after all.
FH has been working on MX0 with Mahou-X, and I believe that we'd love to see this joint effort of two great communities continue. I hope a translator from Mahou-X would pick up MX0, or that we'll be able to use Sai_the_Shaman's translation.
Well, with all that said, enjoy my last MX0 translation.

Words on left: [i love the small Taiga *heart*] [if I had magic, it wouldn’t be like this!!]
<The story so far>
Kuzumi doesn’t know any magic, yet he attends a magic school and is known to be the best magic user in the school. Taiga met the spirit of the previous principal after hearing of the Black Plate which makes use of the magic of others. And the test this time round is to climb up a super high wall…?!
M: 90 High Wall

2
Taiga: Waa~~~!!!
BGW: This time round, it’s the wall hell!!!
Lucy: Taiga, are you alright…?
Taiga: Uu, the pull of gravity is really strong… / I probably would’ve died many times over if I didn’t have this magical body.

3
Taiga: Just a little more… isn’t this wall a little too smooth? / It doesn’t hurt but I feel that my hands are losing strength. / Does this mean magic is running out?
Lucy: You haven’t climbed to the head?
<-- Goal
Taiga: There’s no other way… I’ll have to continue climbing. / My clothes seem to be part of this magical body too. I’ve no dust in my pockets. They’re empty… I don’t even have magic ash. / There’s nothing in them except my plate. Looks like this place is made entirely of magic. / And M0 doesn’t help in climbing walls either. This is a really gruelling test.
Box: Though it doesn’t know Kuzumi can’t use magic / to someone who can, this test would also drain magic.

4
Box: As this test is based on the student’s magical abilities, when magic is used, the body would be decreased by that much.
Small boxes: before using / after using
Box: The more magic used, the greater the distance from the top becomes. / If all the magic is used up, the body will disappear, and it wouldn’t be possible to reach the top.
Taiga: huhu… Just a bit more and I’ll reach the kneecap.
Lucy: Taiga!! There’s a place you can hold on to there.
Taiga: hoo!! I’m saved. / WAAA… / AH~~~ There’re still things like that!!!
<-- Knee
Lucy: Taiga~~~

5
Spirit: Keh… / It seems to have changed quite a bit over here. / I haven’t used legs in decades. I’m really not used to this… It’s tough to synchronise arms and feet. / The building is different from what I remember too. / Hey, the big fellow over there. / Yeah, the one that doesn’t look too bright.

6
Spirit: Where’s the principal’s office? Bring me there. Stop dilly-dallying, I don’t have much time.
Takuma: Ahh? / Why’re you acting all high and mighty? Looking for a fight?
Spirit: I’m not acting. I’m mighty. / Hurry up. Or are you really an idiot?
Students: Hey hey… Kuzumi and Koishikawa… / they’re fighting again.
Takuma: So you’re looking for a fight eh?!! YAAH / DON PATCHIN!!!

7
Spirit: BUBBLE PACKAGE
Takuma: Geh…
Spirit: Students nowadays are really disrespectful. / magic shouldn’t be used to attack people whenever desired.

8
Daimon: You did enforce the magic rules, but wasn’t your attitude the problem? / I haven’t seen you for a few days and you’ve become such an uncouth man. Kuzumi.
Mizuki: Hey, what’s all the ruckus?

9
Mizuki: …Ah, Kuzumi!! / eh…? / Wha… what are you doing!!!
Spirit: Males are too troublesome. You. Direct me to the principal’s office.
Mizuki: ah? / Why don’t you go yourself?! Don’t you already know where the principal’s office is?!
Spirit: hm---- It’ll be too troublesome to explain it all. And I don’t have time.

10
Spirit: Besides, I don’t think you dislike this. / It’s more like…
Mizuki: Stop… stop playing around, blockhead!! / Are you trying to say that I’m happy?! Enough~~~ Put me down~~~!!!!
Takuma: Bastard~~~!!! Don’t act so intimately with Mizuki!!!
Spirit: Enough. Shut up. Even 10 of you won’t be enough to defeat me.
Takuma: aah? / me?
Spirit: The two of you don’t seem too bad. / You’ve got more magic capability than people like Kuzumi.
Bgw: people like Kuzumi…?

11
Spirit: But you’re still at beginner level. Don’t be complacent. Take a good look at yourself and try to work harder.
Daimon: …What the heck is he saying?
Hiiragi: What’s the fuss over there? Class is starting. / Hmm? Kuzumi, / you’re back?
Spirit: HO HO, HIIRAGI! You’re the same as ever, stiff as a board! Great timing, you’re just the guy I need.
Students: EEH…?! He didn’t call him ‘Hiiragi-sensei’! He called him ‘you’?!
Hiiragi: Hmm… / I thought I heard someone talking all high and mighty. / Why don’t you repeat yourself… I didn’t quite catch you.

12
Spirit: Relax, it’s me.
Student: WAAA / YAA… / WA----!!

13
Hiiragi: What… / this is…
Spirit: I’m looking for Otome. Bring me to her.
Hiirage: You… you are
Mizuki: Is this Kuzumi’s magic…? / Amazing…
Daimon: u…
Taiga: AH------!!!

14
Taiga: U…WA / Ugh… I won’t admit defeat---... I’ve got to the thigh… Just a little more…
Lucy: Taiga~~~ Even if it doesn’t hurt, don’t force yourself.
Taiga: My body’s becoming a little sore… Magical bodies get tired too…?
On sign: Principal’s Office
Otome: I didn’t expect Father to come here.
Spirit: You actually sent someone who doesn’t know magic to the Black Plate grading. / Are you really planning to nurture him? / He’s just a M0 student.

15
Otome: Yes, I’m serious. / So before that, if by any chance he passes the test, I’d like him to upgrade his plate to the Black Plate first.
Spirit: It’s true that his stamina’s exceptional. And as you said, he is also very creative in magic usage. / But I won’t hand the Black Plate to someone who can’t use magic.
Otome: Kuzumi-kun / right now / only doesn’t know magic. / If he’s given a normal plate, he’d definitely shine more than the other students… I’m sure of this.
Spirit: How so? From what I’ve seen, his magical capability is only 1/3 that of the other students his age. / I can’t possibly imagine him defeating the rest of the students. / Either way, a First Year can never get past LEVEL 1.

16
Spirit: That fellow had no great magical potential to build on to begin with. It’s not appropriate to only look at his capabilities after he obtains the Black Plate…
Otome: Father… Your hand?
Spirit: eh? / What?!

17
Otome: ?!!
Spirit: this… Are these the injuries Kuzumi has suffered? / The damage to the magical body has affected the real body…
BGW: Kuzumi’s trial!!

Words on left: I am the previous principal of Seinagi Private High. You wish to obtain the Black Plate?
<The story so far>
Kuzumi doesn’t know any magic, yet he attends a magic school and is known to be the best magic user in the school. Kuzumi got through the exam and was ecstatic to learn from the principal that if he had the Black Plate he’d be able to use the magic of others. But Kuzumi has to get the approval of… a spirit?!

2
Taiga: Sp…spirit? Of the previous principal? / this is all too sudden.
Bgw: Encounter with a spirit?!
Spirit: It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe me. / As long as you understand and know that the North Grounds are my territory. / If you want any wish to be granted you’ll have to listen to my commands…
Taiga: You say you’re the principal’s father but you look like a kid. How old are you?
Lucy: Their eyes are similar.

3
Spirit: Ahahaha… Didn’t I say that you should be respectful? Did you understand?
Lucy: Ta…Taiga~~~ / What are you doing!! / …eh? / ah
Spirit: Nobody can touch me, but I can touch others. / hmm… you’re a little different from spirits.
Lucy: So it’s actually the use of magic to replace your old body, right.
Spirit: Since it was a rare chance I thought I’d choose to appear as my young self. / My name is 花先音弥 Hanasaki　Otoya, 102 years old. / I am now the one in charge of the grading of the Black Plate.

4
Taiga: Grading?
Spirit: The Black Plate is created by adding a special magic to the plate. / The plate will then have the ability to temporarily store magic. You know this, don’t you? / This magic is very important. / Users with high magic capability would have more of it added to their plates, users with low magic capability would have less. / There are 10 levels in this test. / Your Black Plate will have magic added to it in accordance to the levels completed. / This place was actually for outstanding Third Year individuals. It’s not a place a powerless chump like you should come to.
Taiga: Powerless… / But we’ll forget everything about magic after graduation… so what’s the use in testing us?

5
Taiga: And the principal did say that if I had a normal plate, I’d have no need for a Black Plate. / Why do I have to specially come to get tested…?
Spirit: You’re just a First Year, so don’t worry about it. / anyways / This is no place for the likes of you. Go back.
Taiga: Don’t say that---- I really need this opportunity! / Don’t be so cold, help me out here!! / If I did anything disrespectful, I apologise. I beg you, I beg you!!
Spirit: It looks like you still don’t get it. / It’s not that I don’t allow you to take the test, it’s because you can’t.

6
Spirit: Didn’t I say that only graduating students come here? It also means that you’d have to be at a certain level in magic. / Even the lowest LEVEL 1 is a goal too far for you to reach.
Taiga: I haven’t even tested! How would you know!
Lucy: Yeah!! Taiga’s stamina is amazing!
Spirit: Cheh… How troublesome. / I was telling you for your own good. Fine, if you want to go so much, then go. / though I know for sure that you won’t make it. / I’ll take special care of you. I’ll let this Kusa go with you.

7
Taiga: EEEH!!
Spirit: The test was designed not for your body but for your magic. / I’ll use this fellow to force your magic ability out. / GO THEN!!
Taiga: WAA~~~~~

8
Taiga: AAAAA / WA----- / cough / cough / that was too much. / did we… come to somewhere even deeper underground? / Lucy, are you ok?
Lucy: Jeeze~~~~

9
Taiga: …EEEEEH?! / Lucy!! You… you……
Lucy: !!? Taiga’s become small!
Taiga: What?! It was I who became small?! / This is a plate?
Lucy: Wa~~~ yay~~~!!!

10
Taiga: Was it because I got hit by that hammer thing… / he said that it’ll hit the magic out of me, so this means that my current state is the measure of my magic. / It’s actually so small…
Lucy: The distance between Taiga and me has also lessened. / I really like this world~~~ hey, hey, why don’t we live here together----!!
Taiga: What rubbish are you uttering---!!
BGW: Lucy is a type of living magic… So she’ll be bigger than her real body if it’s just showing magic capabilities.
Lucy: You didn’t have to reject so vehemently…
Taiga: Speaking of which, it’s lucky she wore clothes… / Well? / How the heck shall we begin?
Box: Ho ho, a unique challenger has come.

11
Box: the focus of this LEVEL 1 test is [Wall] / Well, climb up then.
Taiga: Climb up? This wall?
Box: The wall that you see now is my foot. / You have to climb past my leg and my waist. / And go forward towards my head further up.
<-Waist
<-ankles
<-Kuzumi
Taiga: eeeh~~~~~~

12
Box: The horn on the top of my head is your goal. There is no time limit. Well, then. Start.
Taiga: …aah! Wait! How high is this!! / I can’t see the top of it! / And it seems that this wall has no holds!!
Lucy: It’s ok Taiga!! If it’s just this, I think I can carry taiga and fly up!!
Taiga: Ooh! So there’s such a solution! / Alright!!

Box: You don’t have to worry. It’s not your real body, so you won’t die. / You won’t die even if you fell halfway up.
Taiga: hu… / This isn’t the magic exams. / How can I climb up a wall like this with no magic? / If I had a lot of magic, I’ll be much bigger and have a way to climb up…
Box: If you want to fly, I’ll hit you down. / You can use any way to get up, but you have to climb.
Lucy: It’s impossible to carry Taiga and avoid that hand.
Taiga: Really? Then I’d just have to climb then. / But can such a simple method work? / A wall so high I can’t see the top…

15
Spirit: To think Otome sent someone like that here. What the heck is she thinking. / then again, I handed the reins over to her 40 years ago. / I can’t say anything about what she wants to do. / Even if this guy gets the Black Plate, he won’t bring it out of the school just yet.

16
Spirit: Hmm~~ Looks like he won’t be coming back soon. / It’s an empty shell anyway. / I’ll borrow it for a while……
SpiritBody: Ooh… This is really… / Quite a good body. / It has supple muscles. I see…

17
Spiritbody: Sorry, I’ll borrow this for a while. / I haven’t been outside in decades.

Words on left: Black MO plate!! What will happen after the magic exam…!!
<The story so far>
Kuzumi doesn’t know any magic, yet he attends a magic school and is known to be the best magic user in the school. Near the end of the exam, Kokuha-neechan appears in front of Taiga! Taiga gets half the life beaten out of him but he preservers, and passes the exam!!
M: 88 Black Plate

2
Ise: I did it! My plate’s been upgraded---!! / I did better this time round, so I got a righteous R.B plate~~~~ / all thanks to Kuzumi.
Haya: But your morning trainings helped too didn’t they. / I got a W.B plate… I’m slower than you. Well, I’ll have to catch up at the next exam.
In box: The exam is over. Upgrading of the students’ plates has begun. / First Years now have B plates and will advance from there.
Bgw: Red B / white B / blue B / yellow B

3
In box: Normally, First Years and Second Years start out with basic metal plates and advance from there.
Next to box: Basic Metals
On bottom row of diagram (right to left): Rare metals / Platinum / Strong Alloys
In box: For the next two years, those who emphasize on consistency are of the Platinum plate. Those who emphasize on spells are of the Rare metals plate. And there are those who don’t use a lot of spells but have strong magic. These are the Strong Alloys plate users.
Haya: Among the First Years, 3 have upgraded to a B plate. Daimon from Class F is one of them.
Ise: wow.
Hiiragi: so… / Everything went well this time. We can relax for now.
Taiga: Yeah, I feel tense every time we have an activity.

4
Principal: Regrettably, you didn’t use any magic using the exam, so your score was rather low. / but you still have the points from the Magic Executive Committee.
Taiga: If you hadn’t forced me to join, even if I’d passed the exam, my points would probably not be enough. I don’t know if I’m lucky or unlucky…
Hiiragi: So? What have you decided? What will you do about the plate upgrading this time?
Taiga: er… Um~~~
Lucy: Taiga will stick to the M0 plate! Right, Taiga? / If you change to a normal plate then I’ll be even less of use to you, won’t I~~!!
Taiga: OW!
Lucy: I couldn’t help at all in this exam!! Geeze~~~ And I’ve already decided that I’ll keep helping Taiga forever~~~
Taiga: OW! OW! / Hmm… it’s not possible for me to change from M0 now.

5
Taiga: but----
Principal: heh heh… so you want to have a taste of what using magic’s like / …hmm
Taiga: um… yeah. / During exams and class competitions, I kept thinking [if I could use XYZ magic…] / every time I think of using someone else’s magic to do something / I feel so empty when I realise I still can’t use magic. / even so, losing M0 would pose trouble for me. If I can have two plates--

6
Principal: Meaning you’d like to keep the M0 plate / and be able to use some magic as well, yes?
Hiiragi: Pr…Principal!!! / What did you say!! / It’s too reckless…

8
Taiga: Is that really possible, Principal?! / really? Really? SERIOUSLY?!! / Isn’t impossible to add spells to the M0 plate? / do you mean to say that it can actually be done? / UWAA~~~
Hiiragi: You’re such an annoyance… / Principal!! Don’t you think you’re being too lenient!!

9
Principal: Isn’t it time to use this chance and tell him?
Hiiiragi: But…
Principal: Kuzumi… the M0 plate doesn’t have the capacity for spells. / but all plates can be tweaked to have some added functions.
Taiga: Added functions?
Principal: It’s called [black Magic Manipulation] / it gives normal plates a special layer of magic. And the plate itself may automatically register it. / That magic layer is black, so it’s called [black magic Manipulation]

10
Principal: this type of magic will save small quantities of the magic it has come in contact with.
Taiga: save?
Principal: Think of it as a magic thumbdrive of sorts. / a small portion of the magic that’s being used will be saved on the plate. And this magic can be used later. / but it only has space for one. When it’s been used up the plate will be empty. / This function is useless if you have a normal plate. / because the magic can be used again if needed.
Taiga: Useless for a normal plate… If it’s not a normal plate…

11
Taiga: But for me, after I use M0…
Principal: kekeke / mo is not magic, so it won’t be saved. / and it doesn’t have to be your magic to be saved.
Taiga: …ahh!! / that means I can take a bit of the magic of others!! / to keep M0 and be able to use magic… / Principal-----!! / Why didn’t you tell me this earlier!!
Principal: because it would’ve been useless even if you knew.

12
Principal: I fear that it’ll be difficult for you to have added functions now. / even so, do you want it? / The work to be done on this plate is very delicate. We need a specialist. There is no one else but him in this school who can do this. / If you want the added function on your M0 plate, you have to get him to agree to it.
In box: Seinagi Private High School – North Grounds.

13
Taiga: What ‘it’ll be difficult’… How can I not come to request it after knowing of something so good?
Lucy: but there’s nothing here.
Taiga: She said that it’s near the stone sculpture in the North… but… / there’s only the stone sculpture here… / and she said to use this.
Lucy: Could it be this over here? The indentation is similar in shape to what you have.
Taiga: What’ll happen?

14
Taiga: Stairs!! / Is it asking me to go down…? I don’t know if I can come out again.
Lucy: It’s alright, I’ll go with you. / Listen up! Even if Taiga can use magic, let me try to help first! / Get it? / Use magic only when I can’t help you. Ok? Ok?
Taiga: ye..yeah, stop pulling!! / I didn’t expect that there’ll be a place like this…

15
Voice: Is it you? / The boy with the M0 plate.
Taiga: There’s someone…? / it doesn’t look like a student. / Um… / it vanished?!
Voice: I got the news.
Lucy: Taiga!! Behind you!

17
Voice: What a strange follower. Is that (Chinese reading: Mai Tuo Wei) Mitolv? Mitolv?
Taiga: When did he…
Lucy: Taiga!! Look, that guy… / Has no feet?!!
Voice: Of course, that’s because I’m a spirit. / Why would I have something like feet? / I am the father of Otome, the current principal. I was the previous principal of Seinagi Private High, so be respectful.

18
Hiiragi: Principal… / Don’t you think it was too early to tell him about the Black Plate?
Principal: Oh? I had to tell him sooner or later, so why not sooner? / If it’s Kuzumi, he just might be able to obtain it. / I look forward to that.
Hiiragi: If it’s Kuzumi… Do you really think so?
Principal: of course. / a good contestant must be a good supervisor. / In other words, a good leader is not necessarily a good contestant. / Kuzumi doesn’t have the capacity for magic but he does have the capacity for the usage of magic.

19
Principal: He will be a great asset to this school in time to come. / that’s why I feel it is better for him to come in contact with the black plate sooner.
Hiiragi: But… the Black Plate is the secret of this school. / I still feel that it is too early.
Principal: Even if he knows a little too much, it wouldn’t be a problem. I’m not worried at all…
Bgw: Seinagi Private High School’s secret is…?!
M:88 / End
Next, the school’s secret will be revealed?!
Will Kuzumi get the Black Plate?!

I know the scanlation for this is already out... but someone requested that I post this (>.<) TA-DA~!

<The story so far>
Kuzumi attends a magic school and is known to be one of the best in magic though in truth he has no knowledge of it. What lies in wait towards the end of the exam is a foe that they would have the most difficulty dealing with! The one who appeared in front of Taiga is his sister!! He’s in deep sh*t now!! (“or, he’s in big trouble now” if there’s a censorship issue… haha)
Words across: An Aika figurine is coming out soon!! Check Page 121 for details!!
Words on left: If I can use magic…… will I be able to defeat one-chan….?!

2
Taiga: Heurgh… / I’m no match for her----
Words on right: Kuzumi isn’t fighting the enemy…?
Taiga: Freakishly strong onee-chan… / How can I get close to her?
Kokuha: Taiga… Taiga… / It’s so hot----- I’m feeling dizzy… / Very soon… I’ll beat him… wait for me…

3
Taiga: It’s impossible to hide somewhere and wait for a chance to get near her in this cramped classroom. / and I don’t know one-chan’s weaknesses… / If only I could use any of the others’ simple magic… / If I was Hiiragi, I’d make myself invincible and get near her. / If I was Mikuni I just need to make the card gigantic and I can settle it easily. / If I were Ise or Inui then I can use magnetism or paper to seal her movements. / but MO can only make onee-chan disappear. / and this dimension is made of magic so using MO would have unpredictable results. / If I were Daimon then I can use arrows and end this quickly. This is class F after all, could he have dropped his plate somewhere here? / Argh~~!! I really envy those fellows who can use magic~~~

4
Kokuha: THERE-------?!
Taiga: WA---!! STAY AWAY~~~!! / eeeh

5
Taiga: WAAA / urgh… no more, she has no weakness / If only she were a little bit conscious, I might have a chance…
On book: Name : Mizuki Naomi
Taiga: Mizu… ah, this is Mizuki’s desk? / Oh crap-----!! She’ll go ballistic if she knew this happened / …oh yeah, this isn’t the real world.

6
Taiga: a… what is this?
On paper: Stupid / useless / retarded male / retarded Zumi
Taiga: Retarded male, retarded Zumi? / this… is it me? / Does she hate me or something…? And she’s put arrows too. Does she wanna kill me?
<-- Actually hearts
Taiga: Did I offend her somehow? I can’t recall that I have… / and she called me [useless----] / It’s true---- In terms of magic I’m really useless… / Useless… / Powerless… / Last year, in the real world, onee-chan did beat me up pretty badly when she went berserk… / ….hm, powerless… / I’ll have to try it. I can be sent out once and come back again, but this’ll pull the others down.

7
Bgw: Lucy and MO can’t be used. / I am indeed powerless… / Then I’ll make this feeling of powerlessness into my greatest weapon!! / If the onee-chan here is the onee-chan I remember… / Hiyaa----

8
Kokuha: Haaaaaaaah
Ise: It’s Kuzumi…

9
Aika: Ise!
Ise: It’s you guys!! / Are you all real?
Kumi: What about you!!
Aika: Hold on, we’ve all reached our destination, so it doesn’t matter of it’s a trap
Kumi: Ah, yeah, we won’t get kicked out
Mitchon: But still…
Ise: Aaah
Aika: Mitchon…
Ise: You guys have reached your destinations?
Kumi: How ‘bout you?
Ise: I’m done too.
Kumi: Liar--- Ise finished before Kuzumi? No way. It’s a lie, isn’t it?
Ise: I’m not lying!

10
Ise: I defeated my brother!!
Kumi: Brother meaning… that….?
Ise: That’s right.
Kumi: oooooh, I didn’t expect you to be so capable / I see you in a new light now…
Ise: I… I knew it, Mikuni’s fake!! I’ve reached my destination, I won’t get kicked out.
Kumi: ? What’re you doing?
Aika: So only Kuzumi’s left. What kind of battle is it?
Mitchon: … the noise, it stopped?
Aika: Yeah! It stopped… Is he ok?

11
Taiga: Amazing, this is no joke---- my attacks didn’t even land once---- / My… My body can’t move any more…
Kokuha: It’s over… Taiga… / I took care of him

12
Kokuha: I’ve beaten all those bad bullies… / you can come out now.
Taiga: Why now…
Kokuha: You got beaten so badly… are you ok? There’re no more bad guys, it’s ok now. / nee-chan has chased them away.
Bgw: So it was like that after all… At that time, the dream that onee-chan had was of saving me from bullies when I was a kid. / she wasn’t hitting me, she was hitting the people bullying me. / After she beat them she settled down and went back to normal, and kept bandaging me up…
Bgw: I’m so sorry / … speaking of which, I can’t breathe

13
Taiga: If it’s onee-chan from that time…
Kokuha: aaah… what heavy wounds. Hold on / I’ll bandage it for you right away.
Taiga: Great, it’s onee-chan from that time. / If she calms down… she’s actually thinking of my welfare all this time
In box: Kuzumi Taiga, destination reached!!

14
In box: Group 6 has reached their destinations / Total time taken for the exam is 68 minutes and 24 seconds / Class C is first
Kumi: We did it~~~!!
Mitchon: First place----!!
Ise: Yeah~ / Kuzumi~~

15
Aika: Wa… are you ok, Kuzumi?
Ise: That’s horrible! What the heck happened…
Taiga: …haha, it was tough
Ise: I knew it. People of his level get monstrous opponents we can’t even imagine. Kumi: It must’ve been something not human.
Taigathink: If she hears this you guys will get killed for sure…
Ooki: First place goes to Group 6. As expected of the 1st group in the previous exam.
Ise: then again, I got to my destination all thanks to Kuzumi’s hints.
Kumi: I owe it to Kokuha-neechan I guess…
Ooki: same goes for the traps. Use magic to take care of it. The ones that you had difficulty dealing with are what the exam is about. No matter what it is, if you didn’t have a power of your own you won’t have a way to get out of it.

16
Ooki: So, you guys did well.
In box: The exam went smoothly after that.
Guy: ah~~ we’re 3rd this time~~!!
In box: In about 3 hours, everyone had passed.
Ooki: ok, Class C’s examination is now over. You can go back to your classroom now.

17
Guy: The exam this time round has nothing to do with the plate levels. Looks like we have to admit defeat / We’ll compete again next time. / were you really not confident of beating your opponent?
Taiga: urgh…
Guy: Damn---- Kuzumi and co. passed so easily again / but—seeing as he’s covered in wounds, I’ll forget it.
In box: And so, the 2nd Magical Examination came to an end. / the students who had finished the exam all had smiles on their faces. Fighting with their toughest enemies made them mature not only in terms of magic, it also made them grow as individuals. / other than a few students who are unwilling to recall the event and get the chills just thinking about it… / Just what the heck did they encounter? If we get the chance later on, we’ll…
Words above trembling guy’s head: They got through the examination!!
M : 87 / END
> The results of the exam are next, and Kuzumi’s MO plate will have a change…!!

Taiga: You did it, Ise!! / Great job!!
Bgw: Ise defeated the mirror monster!!
Words below:
<The story so far>
Kuzumi doesn’t know any magic, yet he attends a magic school and is known to be the best magic user in the school. Kuzumi is now facing the 2nd magical exam. The topic this time is to get to the destination in a mirrored school without getting reflected!! With the help of Ise, Kuzumi safely avoids danger….!?

2
Ise: heh heh… / It’s great that I could seal its mouth so successfully
Taiga: Your Quick Magnet magic level has increased a lot. / your magic might be the arch enemy of your brother’s strong attack magic.
Ise: Aniki’s arch enemy?
Taiga: yeah. You can avoid attacks by making the enemy’s weapon and yourself the same magnetic pole. / and if you stick the opponent’s weapon to other things, his attack will be useless.
Ise: I see… I’ve never thought of it… Is that right… So I’m an arch enemy…
Taiga: Speaking of which, you brothers still have a bad relationship? I really don’t get the both of you.
Ise: Uh…

3
Ise: we had a good relationship in the past. and thinking about it, it was actually I who followed him around…
Taiga: oh… then it’s the complete opposite now.
Ise: I didn’t think anything much of having a brother who was good at everything when I was young. / But being unable to beat him at anything gnawed at me and made me very disgruntled. / In my heart I always wished to beat him at something. Magic is my last fort. / but after listening to you, I feel that I’ve made the right choice in magic. / one day I’ll make him feel pressured.
Taiga: You’re already good enough now. The important thing in magic is how you use it. / There’s no need to bother about the level of the magic. Even a small bit of magic when used appropriately will produce great results.
Taigathink: ……Actually to a person who can’t use magic like me, it’s a little…..

4
Ise: I’m full of courage now after hearing that from you----!! I’m so happy we’re friends----!!
Taiga: uwa! Speaking of which, you better get to your destination quickly! / Alright, it can’t move like this now.
Ise: Then I’ll cancel the magic now. / good, I’ll be at my destination real soon. / Success!! / I’ve reached my destination at last!! / I did it----
Taiga: I’ll get going to class F then.
Ise: Ok, take care.

5
Ise: Alright… Now where do I put this card?
Voice: That card should be placed [in my body]. / You haven’t reached your destination…
Ise: Aniki!! / Why are you here?
Voice: I’ll repeat myself. / You’re considered to have reached your destination only when you have put that card [in my body]. I am the last hurdle in this exam.

6
Voice: The [me] you see now, is the one whom you deem hardest to defeat.
Ise: This is a little weird
Voice: And I will hinder you till the end.
Ise: No… Not aniki… are you an image created by magic?
Voice: That’s right. I’m not him, I’m a body created by magic! / And I was created using your memories. / The tougher you think it is, the more powerful I’ll become. More powerful than the real person!! / Alright, COMEON!!

7
Ise: Wa---------!! / wait wait wait wait wait, I didn’t hear of this!! Don’t I only have to reach my destination?
Voice: You have to fight by yourself for your destination. / Only you can see me here.
Ise: Eeeeh?!

8
Taiga: I won’t be a burden to the others as long as I reach my destination. / Looks like there’re no traps, my destination is right in front of me…

9
Taiga: Wha~~~! / A giant appliance appeared~~~~!!! / What the heck is this giant teddy bear?! / Am I done for this time~~~!!!
Voice: ah, Hold it, it’s Kuzumi!! / Mitchon, STOP!! Let’s check if he’s the real one.
Taiga: Wa…. Eh…

10
Taiga: It hurts……..!
Kumi: He’s real.
Aika: Yay, we found you.
Taiga: !! you guys
Aika: Mitchon collected all the hairs of everyone in the class before the exam.
Mitchon: I didn’t think I could use ‘One Hair Control’ to verify identities.
In box: One Hair Control
The owner of the hair will be subject to manipulation of an action under this spell.
Taiga: Really… If it’s not the owner, he or she won’t be manipulated.
Aika: Yep yep.
Kumi: And I thought we’d have to fight.
Taiga: Speaking of which, what is this fellow for?
Aika: Isn’t it amazing?

11
Aika: This was made from the combination of the magic of the 3 of us. Mitchon’s control of dolls and Kumi’s magic of enlargement were put into it. / Mitchon makes it move, and I use my “X-ray vision” spell to check our outside surroundings from the inside!
Taiga: Not bad, you can move about without getting reflected directly like this. / Creating this definitely gives you a pass in the exam. / Though the doll is quite disgusting…. OW---!!
Aika: Mitchon and I have reached our destinations. Only Kumi is left and hers is on the 1st floor. / What about Kuzumi?
Taiga: I’m almost there. / Ise has reached his destination already.
Aika: Really… Then, do your best. You should have no problem.
Taiga: eh?
Aika: The destination has one last test. Kuzumi’s opponent will surely be a super formidable person!!
Taiga: Eh….. REALLY?

12
Aika: Well then, we’ll be heading to Kumi’s destination now.
Taiga: Hey hey, won’t it be faster if the both of you helped her out?
Aika: The last obstacle is an individual battle. Only the one involved can see it, so others can’t help at all.
Taiga: eeeeeh~~~ what do I do… individual battle? / This dimension is made of magic, I can’t imagine what will happen if I use MO… so I dare not use it. / Yeah… Is Ise alright?

13
Voice: Alright, stop hiding all over the place. Fight or forfeit, you choose. / If you choose to forfeit, just use a mirror and reflect yourself. / Isn’t it better than suffering like this? / hey, how about it? Can’t make a decision on your own? You really can’t do anything without me, can you.
Ise: Right… it’s those words. / from when did I start getting criticized by others. / Those words really hurt……. / good at studies, good at sports in school too. There was a period of time where I did indeed rely on you… it was unavoidable to be criticized by others.

14
Ise: But the me now is different. / even if you are the real deal, I will go head to head with you. / Don’t think I’ll stay a useless little brother forever.
Voice: It’s all meaningless if you don’t win.
Ise: I can win!! Kuzumi has given me a hint. / Quick Magnet + !!!

15
Voice: What!!
Ise: The wall behind is… magnet!!
Voice: Waa!!
Ise: Even if it’s me… there are times where I am triumphant!!

16
In box: Ise Kaoru, Destination reached!

17
Bgw: peek----
Taiga: What the heck is there?
Voice: Hey. / You’re late, Taiga. / Well then, shall we begin?
Bgw: The last obstacle is the Strongest Onee-chan of all!!!

The complete volume of Monsters – excerpt
Aki Species:? Type: monster
In pic: ------ every bullet hit him!
Although able to move at speeds too fast for the human eye to follow, sometimes that power doesn’t work. One of the reasons is not thinking carefully before moving. Usually a carefree fellow, but once you antagonize him….
Reward: J1000-
Danger level: one star

Aki Soul form
Species: Diawolf Type: s-class monster
Text Below pic:
Once Aki gets angry, he’ll turn into his diawolf soul form. Though his explosive strength and speed increases significantly, a flaw is that he’ll immediately fall into a deep sleep. With a strong body as a weapon, he’s a master at using Monster Fist, and has an ultimate attack.
Reward: J7000000-
Danger Level: unmeasurable

Yoshi: Is Kongou leaving?

Kong: mm, I want to continue chasing Jaren.
Toki: don’t strain yourself too much.
Kong: if I don’t strain myself I won’t be able to beat it. / Rest assured, I won’t die. / Master taught me how to live in dereliction!
Yoshi: Just what the heck did he teach you?
Kong: Uncountable things! I’ll tell you what Master said. And I wrote many notes on the usage of techniques…
Yoshi: ah, no need.
Kong: Anyway! It was great to be able to come here, / though I’ve come back to the starting point, I’ve gained a lot!

4
Kong: i… couldn’t understand anything clearly. / I can’t confuse myself based on appearances. / Understand the opponent and accept it, then I’ll become even stronger. / I also discovered my own way of thinking was superficial. / It’s all thanks to you.

5
Kong: about 1% of it!
Yoshi: 1%!?
Kong; I’ll seal it soon! Because I’m great!
Yoshi: this guy… after he went back to his old self he became so noisy..
Kong; anyway, you work hard too. / I’ll wish u all the best.
Yoshi You have to seal Jaren well.

6
Kong: of course!
Yoshi+kong: let’s go!
Kong: thank you all, I’m going now. / but… / if you should have need of me…

7
Kong: just face that star and shout!
Yoshi: which star!
YoshiThink: but… I feel that he’ll successfully seal Jaren sooner or later. / then i… will also, sooner or later…
Teacher: ok / Write your seat number and name in the right hand corner. You can leave when you’ve handed it in---

8
Teacher: ara, / what a solitary atmosphere.
On paper: Sumimura Yoshimori
Yoshi: Ketsu!

9
Yoshi: Well, I must be careful to get the exact position…
Kong: An unwavering will is strength!!
Yoshi: that’s the principle, if I want to be strong, the more I want to be strong, the stronger I’ll get. / Speaking of which, those manuals and secret manuscripts… / many of them wrote how to maintain your frame of mind… / and the problem of whether it’s suitable or not… / who knows, there might be other ways to seal karasumori.. / but I only know kekkai techniques, I’ll have to find a way to do it with my skills. / then… / I’m left with the other kind of Kekkai----

10
Yoshi: let this energy expand, / if I make it into a spherical shape--- / Zekkai…! / eh? It disappeared.

11
Yoshi: damn, this shouldn’t happen! / he! / har! Go, zek… / zek…
yoshiThink: Geeze---- I heard, it should turn out like that,[imagined] then why? / is it a concentration problem? Or is my will not enough… / no! I’m serious! / It’s definitely impossible not be able to do it! The problem lies in my having never seen a real zekkai! / plus, aniki can do it, so I can’t be unable to do it. / eh? Wait, actually I should be able to do it better…
bgw: In the midst of contemplating

Yoshi: hi, how’re you doing?
Voice: I’m asking you what is it.
Yoshi: uh… / I’ve got something to ask you.
Bgw: what’s he pissed off about…
Yoshi: How’re you doing in the Yagyou…
Kagemiya: what how… / There’re no missions. If you want more details, every day it’s either training or cleaning. But there’s nothing much to clean actually---
Yoshi: hey hey, can you tell me again in more detail? / About what happened in Kokuboro…
Kage: Kokuboro? / aah, you mean what you made that time…

13
Kage: At first I thought that was Zekkai, / but it wasn’t. / because Zekkai is a frightening Kekkai technique that turns everything other than it’s caster into nothingness when touched.
Yoshi: huh? / waaaa [imagined] / ah….
Kage: but that time… / though Kaguro was destroyed, I was fine…. / It didn’t look black like Zekkai… / and I felt that the inside was very stable… / It was flawless… / so perfect that it was suffocating…

14
Yoshi: what’re you taking about? / I don’t get you. / Speak in simple Japanese. / Did you see it?
Bgw: Sen-chan, is that Yoshimori? Let me talk to him later.
Kage: Shut up! You were the one who made it, how would I know, moron! DU!
Yoshi: the more I hear about it the more confused I am… / dammit! / Then I’ll train like crazy!

15
In box: a few days later
Yoshi: speaking of which! / the me today--- / is reeeally different!
Madarao: what song is that?

Madarao: what the… it’s useless…
Yoshi: Shut up, when I was practicing, I succeeded once out of every ten attempts!
Toki: That technique called Zekkai… / It feels dangerous, and uncomfortable…
Madarao: the Kongou kid could do so many things in a short span of time… but you didn’t improve at all.
Yoshi: what did you say! I was working so hard these past few days…

18
Yoshi: right… / ah----- that’s right! / That’s it, I get it now! / Zekkai / doesn’t suit me. / I don’t have any inspiration! This must be the so-called ‘unsuitable’!
Bgw: ah--- I quit----

NOTE: I’m translating from the Chinese manga. FINALLY I managed to rent the books, so I don’t have to deal with crappy scans anymore!!! *rejoice*

NOTE: ‘意念’ actually means ‘idea; thought’ it can also be interpreted as someone’s will to do something, or a way of thinking. It’s basically the ‘driving force’ behind the action. It’s not motivation though. Argh.. I can’t explain it, but I used ‘will’.
NOTE2: In the previous chapter, I put ‘Jaren’ as ‘Jyaren’. The correct name is ‘Jaren’. Because I read the Japanese characters as ‘じや’ instead of ‘じゃ’.

Yoshimori: Wait, Kongou!
Kongou: I’ll get rid of it!
Yoshi: what are you saying!
Kong: Didn’t you say earlier that a spirit has entered Karasumori?
Yoshi: I don’t know if it’s the one you mentioned, but a very strong demon has entered. / oh yeah, the spirit you’re talking about, / is it the same as a demon?

Day after day I walked. / One day, I saw the ocean….! / The feelings then, couldn’t be described with words. / Though I don’t have anything / at least I can give that to you as a token of my appreciation.
Flandre: Fuga…
Ciel: It’s ok… I want you to have it. / Flandre, have you seen the ocean? / Actually, we’re free beings!

On building: Sasana Hospital
Reiri: The one who called me, is you isn’t it?
Zeppeli: … keep your killing aura. / We’re the same! / Two vampires in the same area… / Reiri, we should get along! / I’m Zeppeli… / For us to get along better from now on, I’ll show you something interesting…!

Bgw: Smile smile / Difference of 50 / 30 cm <-can’t really see the digits.

Flandre: Fuga
Ciel: Got it, clean the basement next huh?
Hiro: Riza… he is…
Riza: No idea, Flandre picked it up, that unknown android….
Hiro: I see… bgw: it can talk normally too…
Riza: I can’t get to like androids…
Hime: according to Flandre’s report

74
Hime: Ciel… the SEN in your head has sustained major damages due to long term exposure. / because you went travelling, and didn’t get any maintenance work done, you’re in this state. / You have at most one year left. / Furthermore, (can’t see, but I think she said “you need spare parts.” / So what will it be? If you go back to the Kingdom, there are materials and professionals to fix you. / decide for yourself…
Ciel: I’m just an android, and to have you spend effort on me, I’m truly grateful. / Hime / Tomorrow morning I will leave. / In my travels, I experienced freedom. / If I go back to the Kingdom, my memories will be erased. / My memories are my heart. / so I must continue my travels.
Hime: ha / Do as you wish
Ciel: Thank you! Sfx: hee

75
Zeppeli: It should be starting about now. / … you seem close to Hime! Reiri. / The bats in the city are all talking about it!
Reiri: Really? / We don’t owe each other now / I still owe Hime / But, I’m clearing that debt soon…

76
Sfx: I can’t see it, but I think it says ‘bi’, which is beep in English
Hime: …ha! / No use after all. / your (personality) is not bad, but, / there was something I didn’t understand. / which was (freedom)…

77
Hime: A free-willed android is something that I’ve never seen…!
Ciel: Gahgah! / gahgah…
Flandre: Fuga?

78
Hime: He easily picked up flandre, who weighs tons…
Sfx: bazu bazu
Flandre: Fu.. / Ga...
Hime: Flandre.. / !? / Oh no..
Riza: Hey! / What’s the racket?

79
Hime: Riza, don’t move. / Normal attacks are useless against him, we can’t do anything about it.
Riza: How can you say that so calmly! / I can I do to turn that android off?
Voice: You guys seem to be having difficulties!

80
Hime: Huhu! / You finally came / Sherwood.
Sherwood: Sister, you’re annoying / calling me here in the middle of the night…
Bgw: keke

Sherwood: Hiro! / How are you? / Hey! / That out-of-control android over there…
Ciel: Gah… / Gahgah..
Sherwood: My Francesca is different from sister’s little squirt Flandre. / She has a battle program installed!
Francesca: …Fuga.

81
Reiri: Ayaa! / Matters are not proceeding according to your plan. / I guess you injected the virus into that android / How dirty!
Zeppeli: … Looks like you can’t understand my way of doing things. / How sad… Reiri. / I admit my plan this time was simple.. / but, I’m sure I’ll get Hime’s blood.
Reiri: Keke! I look forward to your results!
Sherwood: Francesca, how is it?
Francesca: Fuga
Hime: Hmm.. How ironic. / Short-lived Ciel can be fixed / Flandre can’t be restored due to lack of parts.
Sherwood: Sister, in his memory chip / I found some very interesting data!

Hime: Ciel.. you’re awake?
Sherwood: I gave him a jolt just now / I think he should know about himself. Bgw:keke
Ciel: I.. have committed an unforgivable crime. / So, / Please use my body, and fix Flandre. / I want to save her. / I only have a short life of 10 hours anyway…. No matter what I become, I don’t care. / So…

Mirajane: Everyone---!! From today onwards we can receive job requests again! / Though this is took a long time everyone should work hard at their jobs!!!
People: Uhooooo!!! / We have jos, we have jobs----!!!

Lucy: Why are they so excited? Usually they just fool around and drink.
Mirajane: ahaha
People: speaking of which, Loki isn’t here. / A~a…. Did Lucy fall into Loki’s hands as well? / NO!!!
Lucy: that…. It seems he helped me find my keys, so I want to tell him…. Thanks.
Mirajane: mm… If I see him I’ll help pass your message. Don’t talk about that, you lost the keys. Are the Stellar spirits angry?
Lucy: haha… / that… already.. isn’t just at the level of angry…
Bgw: I told you not to lose the keys again, you bitch/ Arrr? / iyaaaaaa…
Lucy: Just thinking about it makes my butt hurt…
Mirajane: ahyaya

Grey: Do you need me to cool it?
Lucy: Don’t pretend to be a gentleman. That’s sexual harassment!
Bgw: awkward
Happy: Lucy, let me see your red butt.
Lucy: this is obvious sexual harassment!
Natsu: If I make her butt hurt more I wonder what expression Lucy will have.
Lucy: Are you a devil!!!
Erza: You dare say that again!!!

7
Lucy: Erza?
Luxus: Then I’ll say it more clearly. / this guild doesn’t need weak fellows.

8
Erza: You bastard…
Luxus: To be looked down upon by a guild such as Phantom Lord… How embarrassing. I couldn’t face anyone.
Happy: Luxus is back?
Grey: That bastard mouths off as soon as he comes back.
Lucy: S-ranked Luxus.
Luxus: I’m talking about you, you. / I heard that you guys were beaten up by Iron Dragon Gazille? / speaking of which, what are your names. Who are you guys? / You’re a disgrace, hey. / ahahahaha

12
Bgw: ahahahha!!!
Lucy: Succeed… what nonsense is he talking about.
Mirajane: It’s not really nonsense. / because Luxus is Master’s blood and flesh grandson.
Lucy: HUH----------!!!?

13
Mirajane: So if Master retires, the probability of the next Master being Luxus is very high.
Lucy: how… how can that be… / but.. I don’t wish at all… for a person who looks at his comrades that way to be the Master.
Mirajane: That’s why there’s a rumour saying the Master can’t retire because of that.
Lucy: is he waiting for that person to become more mature?
Mirajane: besides, it’s just a rumour. In reality, Master hasn’t said a word about anything concerning a successor.
Natsu: That bastard…
Erza: Forget it… It’ll be very troublesome if you have relations with that guy. / How about this? / Want to take up a job?

14
Natsu: huh?
Erza: of course, Grey and Lucy should come too.
Grey: huh!!?
Lucy: What!!?
Mirajane: Grey, where’re your clothes?

Lucy: wa

15
People: Fairy Tail’s strongest team is born--!!! / yeah--!!! / It can’t be… Lucy’s… the strongest? / I think if she calls out Aquarius I’ll have no chance of victory. / In..indeed… / You guys are the strongest---!!!
NatsuGrey: With… With this guy…
Erza: Not happy?
NatsuGrey: Extremely unhappy!!!
Erza: We have a job already!!! Attack the illegal magic school in [鲁lu比bi纳na斯si] Lobinasu City’s rural district. / Let’s go.

Macarov: Retire… eh? / The guild building has been changed to a new one. / If that’s the case, the Master should be new too…

Macarov: Luxus… / his way of thinking is a serious problem. / ギルダーツGildartz is not possible… / Mist Gun. / He’s a complete recluse… / If that’s the case… / She’s a little too young… Erza…
Mirajane: Master, So you were hiding here~~~
Macarov: eh?
Mirajane: looks like something happened again.

Kongou: hu! / My tiredness has been washed away, how wonderful! / ohoh! Delicious! This is great! / Please give me another bowl! / waa! I drew the Joker!

81
Kongou: Now’s not the time to do all these things!
Chapter 125 – Master and Disciple

Kongou: Return my stuff to me!
Yoshi: Let’s play cards next.
Toshi: eeh, but I want to play the ‘Life’ game.
Kongou: ah! That’s right! / keeping me here, letting me eat and board, it’s all to lower my battle senses… / this is your motive!
Yoshi: can I ask, how does that benefit me?
Kongou: aa, though it was for a while, I actually forgot my mission, and had a carefree life… I’m a fallen angel!
Yoshi: It can’t be that serious! / hm… how do say this… / there’s no way I can’t bother about a thoughtless guy like you, though you’re a technique user… / ah, but, there’s another reason too.

82
Kongou: about sealing…?
Yoshi: yeah, actually I have something I want to seal as well. / Though I don’t really understand exorcists, I think I might be able to observe…
Kongou: you’re hunting a strong spirit too?
Yoshi: No, what I want to seal is land.
Kongou: Land?
Yoshi: That’s right, I want to seal Karasumori.

Yoshi: To seal off all that weird power, / so that strange things won’t come again, and this place will be a normal plot of land. / I don’t want anybody to get hurt because of Karasumori again.
Kongou: I don’t know about something that difficult.
Yoshi: ah, but….. you do know that that land is special, right?
Kongou: I’ve never heard of any other Shinyuuchi, and I’ve never gone there. Ah, there’s a Land God living nearby though… / But if I compare Karasumori and that place, it’s indeed really different. / no, if it’s a Shinyuuchi, there are many nearby. Like 沼Numa and 山Yama…
Yoshi: Yama? That’s considered a Shinyuuchi too?
Kongou: should be a demon mountain or something like that. / actually that’s all I know… / What I said yesterday made me seem too impressive…

83
Kongou: sorry… / I’m not considered an exorcist yet.
Yoshi: eh-------?
Kongou: I didn’t think you’d be so earnest.
Yoshi: no way, you’re really impressive! Yesterday you used… a nail to destroy spirits!
Kongou: that! Though I’m good at that, sealing techniques and spirit destroying techniques are the most basic… / furthermore I’m… still learning! / before that… / my master passed away.

In boxes: Five years ago--- / The boorish me / crushed rocks in the mountains every day.
Kong: Watch this!
Yoshi: Wait, I don’t quite get what you mean.
Bgw: why do you have to crush rocks?
Kong: I had a lot of energy, and I did what wanted to!
Box: That day I forgot the time.
Kong: what? It’s already night time! / I have to go back quickly! My dinner will get cold!

84
Kong: what the…. / hii…

Guy: Ha!

85
Kong: wa!

Kurogane: Your opponent is me, 邪煉 Jyaren! / Fuu!!
Jyaren: gu…

Kurogane: Did he get away?

Kurogane: come, / boy, can you still stand?

87
Kong: At that moment, / I decided to be his disciple
Yoshi: eh? Just like that?
Kong: what ‘Just like that’? …..I nearly lost my life! Bgw: that was scary enough!
Yoshi: yeah? For me it was decided the moment I was born…
Kong: Master was really cool!
Kurogane: Till when do you plan to follow me?
Kong: Before you accept me as your disciple, I won’t go back!
Kurogane: Then you’re my disciple, go home.
Kong: eh! / Then what are you gonna teach me?

Kurogane: you have a home to get back to, boy. / Not like me. / You can have this. / You can find me anytime like this. / When you need me, just face that star and call for me.
Kong: But, after that, no matter how I called I couldn’t see Master.
Yoshi: You’ve been had…
In box: 3 Years later, we met again at the same place.

88
Kong: master! / Look! I can use this nail to break rocks!
Kurogane: You… Still remember me? / Boy, I… / am not the man you think I am.
Kong: Three days later, / master died in a battle with Jyaren.

Kong: That spirit is the one who killed my Master…

73
Yoshi: Amazing, Madarao! This wall is the common boundary line
Madarao: So you can tell the difference now. Bgw: heh!
Yoshi: But isn’t this strange? / This school wasn’t built 400 years ago…
Mada: It should be to match with the size of the land exactly, I guess.
Yoshi: But, I heard that in the past, the school was smaller than now.
YoshiThink: that means, the school was built according to the boundary… / In other words, the person who changed the boundary is powerful! / Who the heck was it? Our ancestor? / And, what the hell for?
BGW from right to left: Karasumori Power / Land (small) / Land (big)
Is it to lower Karasumori’s power… no, though Lord Uro’s bed needs to be fixed regularly, Karasumori shouldn’t be the same… / speaking of which, this guy… / he’s always been at Karasumori, yet he knows nothing… / Is there something wrong with his memory!

Madarao: what’s wrong again?
Yoshi: There are too many things I don’t understand here. / if I can know the answers… / I’ll be more confident…
Madarao: what confident?
Yoshi: didn’t I say that I wanted to seal karasumori…
Madarao: ahahahaha… now? Kekeke! / You haven’t forgotten it yet? Ahaha, you’re such a stupid kid!

Madarao: Found it, Yoshimori! / a long awaited big prey!
Tokine: it’s movements are slow! / Do we drive it into a corner, or attack from above…
Hakubi: since you want to chase it out, you attack from above of course.

TokiThink: But, it’s demonic aura is very strong, its body is also huge… / even if we use Kekkai to catch it… it’s so far away, can we control it?

Yoshi: eh? / didn’t you say you got the wrong one earlier?
Guy: wrong one? When did I say I got the wrong one! / Did I say it?
Yoshi: no, because…
Guy: are you thinking of asking for information? / who are you?
Yoshi: who are YOU? / I’m saying… This Karasumori is the land that has been guarded by us Kekkaishi for generations. / Please don’t act on your own.

Yoshi: I’m alright, forget it… / Whatever I ask this fellow is a waste of effort to ask…
Plump gal: I think… Sumimura-kun’s dressing today is even uglier!
Bgw: how atrocious…
Blackhairgal: Yurina… what’s so good about that guy?
Kanda: eh? This… though he’s a little strange today…
Yoshi: Anyway, I have to catch Kiyoko… Tokine didn’t mention anything strange, so the High School section shouldn’t be affected yet. / Targeting the Middle School… send a load of Shikigami… / no.. it’s like searching blindly… / that’s not it.

64
Yoshi: She’s here! / Ketsu! / Kiyoko you…

Kiyoko: I feel that lacked strength.. / gu!
Bgw: なんか　がっくり it’s like he’s depressed.

Yoshi: you…. Anything’s fine, I beg you to stop talking nonsense and making the school do all these weird stuff…
Kiyoko: weird stuff?

65
Kiyoko: Damn brat! / you dare say that again. / Do you know how old I am? / I died soon after I left my mother’s womb. / It was not easy for me to wait all this time… / Are you going to deprive me of my amusement?
Yoshi: Rubbish!!
Bgw: Isn’t that action only used when you’re greeting people?
Kiyoko: Hmph! Kekkaishi are all cold hearted! They’ve got hard heads, brainwashing doesn’t work!
Yoshi: what? You know about us?
Kiyoko: Of course. / How many times do you think I’ve come here? / I’m different from brats like you. Don’t judge by my appearance, I’m actually already a old granny.
Bgw: kekekeke

Yoshi: You’re just a wandering spirit, don’t talk as though you’re a big deal! / Forget it, get down here right now!
Kiyo: Just a wandering spirit?
Bgw: fuu---
Kiyo: you… do you know how painful it is for wandering spirits don’t head to rebirth or become demons? / Normal wandering spirits and I… cannot be compared!
Yoshi: Shut up!
Bgw: stop doing that action…
Yoshi: 1? You… you said that you’ve come here many times… / then do you know about Karasumori?
Kiyo: what? You have something to ask me, brat?
Yoshi: this Karasumori… / what is it?

66
Yoshi: if you tell me, I won’t take action against you. / This unknown power which eddies out… / How can I… / stop this power?
Kiyo: No idea.
Yoshi: what----?
Kiyo: I’m just a wandering spirit, how would I know about these things.
Yoshi: this fellow…
Kiyo: I know your plan, / but, if you do that in the 神佑地 Shinyuuchi, you’ll suffer the wrath of heaven.
Yoshi: Shinyuuchi?
Kiyo: Are you an idiot? It’s land that has power like this one. In English it’ll be ‘POWER SPOT.’ / There are lands like this scattered throughout the country. Every Shinyuuchi is different from the place humans use. 土地神クラスかてええとこ五分や The power is about the same as that of Land Gods Class. *not sure about this sentence*

Kiyo: In other words, people like you… / Don’t think too much, just be good and follow orders to protect this Shinyuuchi.
Bgw: ahaha…
Yoshi: It can’t go on like this…
Kiyo: then… I’ll tell you something / you’re one of history’s most stupid kekkaishi. / hu!
On yoshi’s head: buchii

67
Kiyo: haaa---- / catch me if you can gowasu!
<- can’t see her!
Yoshi: sorry! / dammit… I can’t use Kekkai techniques in front of everybody… / what is that?
Voices: that person looks really weird. / why is he dressed like that? / Wa, how ugly… I can’t believe it, he actually has that sort of hairstyle… / Who is he? / hu! Don’t laugh out loud…
Yoshi: It’s not the same… / Kiyoko! / I must catch you!

Bgw: hahaha---- it doesn’t matter, later!

Kiyo: I didn’t cause trouble! you were the one who made the Sensei’s wig fall off! / bgw: and it was funny!
Yoshi: what? / That was all because you… / hahaha… / That’s the problem… / If it’s a detestable fellow then I can forget it… / but that person is a good Sensei who thinks of his students. / To do that to him…

70
Yoshi: anyway, don’t come again. / get it!
Kiyo: Ow, ow!
Grandpa: Kiyoko? / ah, that girl who loves to play pranks. Did she come again? / She is a wandering spirit who loves to travel around the world. / I really wish that she would stop using Karasumori as her maintenance ground… / Never mind, she likes to play pranks…. But she wouldn’t do anything bad. / Just treat her nicely, who knows, you’ll know something good from her.
Bgw: chew… chew… / Shuuji, another bowl please.

Kiyo: I came to tell the truth. / One day Karasumori will….

71
Kiyo: to have anyone face up to me like this is rare. / he’s not like other kids. / Never mind, I had fun too. / I actually didn’t want to say anything of relation to it, but in the end I told him the truth.
KiyoThink: Forget it.. Karasumori is interested in this kid too. / I came to tell the truth. / One day Karasumori will… / awaken!

Chapter 68 [ Goodbye ]
In bubble box: Question
What is Erza doing?
Choose from the 4 answers below!

1 – Admiring the sword’s make.
2 – Posing for a photograph.
3 – Intoxicated with self-satisfaction
4 – Playing [ Daruma-san Fell Down ] and is currently ‘freezing’.
# We won’t reveal the correct answer! Forgive us.

NOTE: Daruma-san Fell Down is a game in Japan that children play. One is chosen to be the ‘demon’ and chants ‘Daruma-san ga koronda’ when his/her back is turned. You have to freeze whenever the ‘demon’ stops chanting and turns to look at you, all the while trying to creep up on the ‘demon’.
NOTE: by ‘admiring a sword’s make’, I meant admire the excellent craftsmanship that went into making the sword, as well as the quality of the sword. In Mandarin it means something more but I feel that ‘sword’s make’ would be an adequate enough description.

In box: Heartfilia Mansion
BGW: The girl who ran away from home, Lucy returns a year later!
Is she…. Giving up on Fairy Tail!!?
Woman: O… Ou… ou… / Oujo-sama~~~!!

Servants: Lucy Oujo-sama / Oujo-sama / Welcome back / Where have you been the whole year?

Chef: Oujo-sama is at that age. Did ya elope with someone, eh? Yeah?
BGW on right: This is youth…
BGW near nose: yep yep.

Old man: Lucy Oujo-sama, you didn’t skive off magical studies?

If you’d persisted in idling in that guild / I would have used the power of my wealth to destroy it. / you finally understand, Lucy. / Your willful actions have caused trouble for those around you, I’m sure you’ve learnt a lesson from that. / You are a daughter of Heartfilia. You’re different from the rest. The world you live in is also different. / I’ve brought you back this time for this one thing. / Your betrothed has been decided.

8
Father: Jujanellu Family’s Sawalu Ouji-sama. / He’s said that he’s very interested in you in the past.
Sawalu: Yaa-- / Lucy Oujo-sama—
Father: I’ve said this before.
NOTE:茱zhu荚jia涅nie鲁lu is the name. I put it as ‘Jujanellu’
NOTE:Ouji-sama means prince

9
Father: The Jujanellu family can help us Heartfilias expand our territory to the north. / This union is beneficial to our family’s future. / And you must bear a son. / To continue the Heartfilia bloodline. / That’s all I have to say. / Return to your room.
Lucy: Otou-sama.

11
Lucy: Please don’t misunderstand. / I came back with the sole purpose of telling you my decision. / Leaving home without a word was wrong of me. It’s no different from running away. / So this time I’ll tell you my feelings honestly. / And leave this house again.

12
Lucy: If you dare lay a finger on Fairy Tail again / I… and everyone in the guild, will take you for an enemy!!!!! / If you hadn’t done something like that we could’ve talked nicely. / But it’s too late. You’ve already hurt my comrades deeply.

13
Father: Lucy…?
Lucy: I will walk on the path of my own choosing!!! / Don’t decide on my marriage for me!!! / And don’t touch Fairy Tail ever again!!!

14
Lucy: What I need is not riches or pretty clothes. / It’s a place where I’m recognised for being myself. / Fairy Tail is my other home. / It’s a home that is a thousand times more caring than this one. / Though I’ve left for a period of time, leaving this home where Mother and I lived was painful.

15
Lucy: Supetto, Grandpa Belo, Libon… Eido...
Chef: waaaa
Lucy: Parting with them was painful as well. / But… If Mother was still alive… / I’m sure she would’ve told me to do what I like.

Yoshi: so / very unfortunate is not that bad. I think it’s special. I only got a ‘fortunate’, isn’t that boring? And this year’s bad luck might not be used up in this year.
