Claymore 94

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 8: two chapters of Claymore!]

[Side text: The Organisation's top two warriors, Alicia and Beth, are here to annihilate Abyssal One, Rifl of the West. Are they up to the task......?!]
Rifl: The Abyssal... // ...Hunt...? // You certainly make bold claims... // What do a pair of warriors from the Organisation think they can do against me? // ! // Wait a moment... // That's...

Claymore
Scene 94: Purging Blade
[Insert text: Alicia and Beth's Awakened form... what lies beyond its deadly blades?!]

4
Rifl: !!
Dauf: No way... She... // ...Awakened...?!
Rifl: Ngh...

5
Dauf: Rifl!

6
Rifl: (Tch... // She aimed for the instant before I assumed my Awakened form... // Not good...)

7
Dauf: Are you okay? // Rifl... // Hm?
Rifl: Get back! // Dauf!

8
Dauf: G... // Gahhhh!
Rifl: Why, you...

9
Rifl: Attacks sufficient to slice up Dauf... // ...and the speed to dodge my own attacks... // (I see... // So this is the anti-Abyssal One warrior the Organisation have created. // I was under the impression I appreciated what they had been doing to an extent from my analysis of Luciela... // ...but witnessing this first hand, it certainly is a little stunning. // The strange thing is that both of them are here together... // In addition to being their ultimate military force, these two should also be a key point in their defences...)

10
Rifl: !
Feeders: Ggh... // Gghaahh... / Ggh...
Rifl: Could it be...? // No... but... // I see... // So Easley is dead.
Dauf: Eh?! // Easley... dead...? // What's going...

11
Rifl: Dauf! // Crush the other one who isn't moving!
Dauf: Eh? // Oh! / Her! // Graaahhh!

12
Rifl: ! // Her movements slowed...
Dauf: Ghaaahhhhh!

13
Dauf: ! // She's... // ...dodging my attacks with her eyes closed...!

14
Rifl: Ugh... // Her movements were only dulled for an instant... // (At any rate, those blades on her arms are dangerous... // Those smaller blades attached to the larger ones... // They're always in motion at extreme speeds... // ...slicing anything they touch to pieces...)

15
Rifl: (This warrior... // ...She's a weapon of extermination, specialised to the extreme in slicing alone...)
Clare: !!

16
Clare: No way... it's unbelievable... // That Beth is dodging her own opponent's attacks... / ...and keeping Alicia's youki under control at the same time... // Have the Organisation... // ...really brought Alicia and Beth this far in the past seven years...? // ! // What am I saying...? // There shouldn't be anything about Alicia and Beth in my memories... // That Rafaela... // What on Earth was she trying to convey to me...?!

17
Clare: Tch...

18
Clare: That thing can no longer be called Rafaela or Luciela... // It is a destroyer, nothing more...

19
Clare: !! // What... // ...is that...?

20
Clare: ! // Could it be...?
Helen: ! // Oi, Deneve! / Check that out!
Deneve: ......Ngh... // Keep moving. // I have a bad feeling about this.

21
Rifl: There. // Her movements have slowed. // What? // What is this sensation...?
Helen: CLARE~~~~!
Clare: !
Helen: What the hell d'you think... // ...you're doing in a place like this...?!
Clare: Stay back! // Helen, Deneve!

Daug: Ngahh?

25
Rifl: Dauf!

26
Uma: !
Cynthia: Aahh!
Uma: Grab on, Cynthia! // We're getting out of here!
Cynthia: Impossible! With your legs, you can't possibly run fast enough with me in tow! // Forget about me, and just -
Uma: Ngh... // Why, you... // Just grab on, all right?!
Cynthia: Ah - !
Uma: You could at least let me... // ...act cool once in a while.

28
People: !! // What's that? // What's wrong? // The house just suddenly... // What is that thing? // So that's what sliced into the house...
Raki: Hm? // It looks like there's some commotion over there... // Ah... / Hey... / What's wrong, Priscilla?

29
Raki: Huh?
People: Aaghh! // Wh... / What the?! // Hey... / Someone was crushed under there! // Hang in there! // Hey... / Hey!

30
Helen: D... Dammit... // What's going on here...?! // Well... whatever it is, you saved our asses, Clare... // If you hadn't pulled us away like that... / We coulda been done for...
Clare: No... // You don't understand...
Helen: Hm?

31
Deneve: !
SpikeThing: Ggh...
Helen: O... Oi...
SpikeThing: Ggh... // Gghhh... // Gnnhh...
Helen: What is all this...?
Clare: The real hell... // ...is just beginning...
