Jio to Ougon to Kinjirareta Mahou 8

EDIT: I keep forgetting, but these translations are reserved for Ala Atra and Simple Scans.

Edit: on second thought, I'll keep Rin as Rin, so Gin/Rin is obvious.

I really need to start working...

Chapter 8: The Mysterious Girl

Text: He's always smiling--

Kitihata Ayumi

Jio and Gold and Forbidden Magic

[2]

Text: A magician who single-handedly wiped out an entire country...
Text: Gin Taxibises.

1: So, what's your senior's full name?

2: ... I don't know.

Side-text: His senior apprentice, Gin, has the same name as the magician who destroyed a certain country... Are they the same person?

3: As I thought.

4: But your senior, Gin, and this magician, Gin Taxibises.
5: The possibility that they're the same person isn't exactly remote, is it?

[3]

1: I wonder how many powerful magicians go by the name Gin?

2: I dunno!

SFX: hehe...

3: What is there you 'dunno' about?

4: I don't think... Gin will destroy a country.
5: But I don't know anything about this country or the situation at the time, so I can't say for sure.

6: So that's why I dunno...

[4]

1: ...You're less stupid than I thought.

2: How'd he come up with that after I said I dunno?
3: Well then, let's fly north-west for now.

4: Ah, sorry. // I can't fly.

5: Come to think of it, he was pretty happy when he got to fly while we were using the Kakomi.
6: I can't get Roberia to take us there. // ...Can I.

7: Can't be helped.

8: Looks like I'll have to be the pack mule.

[5]

1: Er, Saza, when transporting these things called humans...
2: Let's go.
3: Ugh, can't breathe...

4: Woaaaahh----
SFX: leap

5: I knew it, I really enjoy this

6: Hey, Saza.
7: Hm?

8: It's kind of late to ask this, but this neighbouring country of that country, Parnoas? Took over the country, right? // Doesn't this make us illegal trespassers?
9: It does.

[6]

1: So quick to respond...
2: But right now they've only conquered it in name, and it seems they've abandoned it.

3: Why?
4: You'll see when we get there.

5: Should be this way.

6: Rather, it's that.

7: The fallen country, Oribiretis.

8: What, this country of fog?
9: Anyone would abandon that, wouldn't they?

[7]

SFX: step...

1: Is this unusual weather endemic or just a local...?
2: I'm gonna take a quick look inside!
SFX: step

3: ...

4: Huh?
5: Why're you here, Saza?

6: Are you pulling my leg?
7: Eh? // But I went into the fog...
7 text: Eh?

8: ...

9: I'm going to take a look again!
SFX: run

[8]

SFX: run

1: Eh?!

2: Looks like
3: It's not just any old fog.

4: If that's the case, it's pretty obvious what needs doing.
5: What're you going to do?

6: Simple.

7: I'll just blow it all away.

[9]

SFX: roaaaar

1: !

[10]

1: Someone's there!

2: Baofao---

3: Please make it...

4: !!

[11]

1: ...

2: Ah!

3: Hey! Are you okay?!

[12]

1: Sorry. // Are you hurt?

2: My magic was repelled?

3: ...No,

4: I don't see any magic.

5: I thought it might've been magic because of the fog, but does my reasoning still hold?
6: Hey, kid, why're you someplace like this?

7: ...

8: Doesn't want to talk...
9: ...More importantly, is it simply a case of being too scared to talk, or something more?

[13]

1: Whatever.

2: Also, you look terrible.

3: You're a girl, right?

4: Oh, // You are?

5: ...

6: Right, for now let's get out of this country.
7: Eh?

[14]

1: You look a little better now, huh?

2: Oooohh----

3: Cute! You're so cute!

4: Let's move onto the next place.

5: Eh? // Where?

6: You said it before. You wouldn't want to eat rocks, right?

[15]

1: Don't hold back, just help yourself.
2: It's amazing!

3: There we go.

[16]

1: Saza, you sure are generous!

2: My older brothers are forever harping on about it, see.
3: About how, as royalty, we should treat our people well.

4: Well, my real goal is to obtain some kind of information from this girl, but...

5: Saza, you've got older brothers!
6: How many siblings do you have?

7: I'm the one who's giving out my info. Man, what to do.
8: Don't talk to me, talk to her.
9 text: Ah
9: Oh yeah!

10: Hey,
11: Why were you in that country?

[17]

1: Ah! We didn't introduce ourselves! // I'm Jio.
2: He's Saza.

3: You don't have to say it if you don't want to, it's fine!

4: ...
5: I... // Was...

6: Looks like she's answering.

7: Looking for... // my family...
8: I had heard that they were...
9: Here...

[18]

1: Saza, it's okay to look for this girl's family, right?

2: Even if I say no, you'll do it, right?
3: I still haven't gotten anything from the kid, so this is perfect.

4: What're the names of your family? // Ah, and tell us your name as well!

5: ...
6: ...Gin Taxibites.

7: I am
8: Rin Taxibites.

Text: No way, Gin's family?! // Why on earth was she there?
