Tales of Xillia ~Side;Milla~ 3

My hype max out...after I decide to place my subscription for Comic Gene and bought the first volume...X3

Speaking of Kijara Seafalls, I recall myself having the worst LOL ever in the whole game there. A thing is, that place is a beach with waterfall, so I was just like "We're in the beach, so..." *change everyone to their swimming suits*

...Then I forgot to change it back. GOSH! I burst into laughter as soon as I got into Ni Akeria! I mean, the people of Ni Akeria...are worshiping their Maxwell-sama in her bikini and beach hat! Followed by one boy with his flipper and a single pant and another man with a diver suit only on his lower half! I was like "OMFG! WTFH!!?? THE PEOPLE OF NI AKERIA ARE...!!! XDDDD"

PS. I changed a couple of names from the old chapters after proofreading the chapter with Rena, so...>_<"



Tales of Xillia ~Side;Milla~
Chapter 3 "As a Human"
Pg. 1
Nachtigal - That's rather careless of you, Zelant.

The Spear of Kresnik...You lost the main key to activate it just when it's about to complete?

Zelant - [Someone interfere with us again...?]

** Who is this person who's pulling the string behind the "Spear of Kresnik"? **

Pg. 2
My deepest apology.
But rest assured, Your Majesty.
I have already sent my men after them.
We shall retrieve it back in no time...

Nachtigal - Is that so?
Hmph.

Pg. 3
The 15th anniversary title has become a manga serialization!! The tale of their solid conviction!!

** Having lost the Four Great Spirits, what is it that's shown in her eyes? **

Pg. 4
Alvin - We finally arrived...

Milla - Is this...
a town of humans?
[Adjuhl, Aladhi Seaheaven]

Jude - Nothing seems different even though we're abroad.
Alvin - Even though we're in Adjuhl, but you see, this area...
just take a look at the map.

Rieze Maxia is divided into two continents, Adjuhl and La Schugall,
Map - Adjuhl
Aladhi Seaheaven
Il Fan
La Schugall
Alvin - but this area is right in between the two,
so it's like a mixture of both.

Pg. 5
Ni Acelia, my village...
is north from here.
Alvin - Hmmm
So? You want to set off right now?
Milla - Yeah, the faster the better, I guess.

Alvin - You two still have to find some works soon so you can pay me back as well.
Jude - But about the price...how much do we have to pay?

Alvin - This much, I guess.

Milla - Hm...I can't say that that's a reasonable price,
but Alvin,
would it be OK if I pay for both the price and your skill once we arrive at the village?

Alvin - ...OK,
We're in the same boat after all. I'll go with you then, boss.

Pg. 6
Milla - In the same boat?
We just got off from it though...
Interesting thing you said.
Jude - Well, let's get going then.

Alvin - Pretending to be fine...huh?
Milla - Who is?

Alvin - Jude, I mean.
He was so blue when we were on the ship, yet
he seems all cheerful right now, don't you agree?
Milla - His mood must've changed. He's more mature than he looks, I think.
Alvin - Whoa, you said it as though he's stranger to you.
You just made him into a capital criminal, y'know?

Milla - Stranger...? He did help me a lot,
but it was all his own decision though?
I never asked him to.

I even told him to go home thrice.
Alvin - Right~...
Guess because he can't just take it out on you either,
so he has to fake that he's fine.

Pg. 9
Milla - This is a perfect time then, Jude.
I want to ask you this before we set off.
What'll you do from now on?

You don't have to tag along with me any further, you know?

Jude - ...Y-Yeah...

Alvin - We're already abroad.
It should take some while before pursuers from La Schugall catch up with us.
Milla - What do you mean by that?
Alvin - I'm saying that it means you still have some time to think.

Pg. 8
Milla - Yes, that's true in Jude's case...
Hmmm...

Jude, listen.
I'm heading to Ni Acelia right now.
I might be able to resummon the Four Great Spirits again if I go there.
Alvin - Four Great Spirits?

Jude - Yeah, Milla is Maxwell.
Alvin - MAXWELL!? You mean...that Spirit Lord of Origin...!?
Milla - Yes, I'm worshiped by the people of Ni Acelia as Maxwell after all.
Alvin - You serious!?

Milla - That's where you come in.
Can you come with me, Jude?

Pg. 9
You must've suffered because of what you've done,
but the truth remains that I'm to be blamed for it as well.

I'll recommend you to the people in Ni Acelia.
I'm sure they'll take a good care of you.

Alvin - Oh...so you already gave it some thoughts too.
Milla - Hm.
I reflected over it a bit, since you said I'm not being very considerate of him.

Jude - ...Milla,

thanks.

Pg. 10
[Aladhi Road]
Milla - HAH.

Pg. 11
What's going on...
I...don't have...any strength...
Jude - Milla...

Don't tell me that you haven't eaten anything...
[I already ate on the ship...]
Milla - Up until now...Sylph always fills me with the aerial element and Undine fills me with the aqueous element...
Alvin - What're you talking about?

Head - Oh...my!
It has been a while since we have travelers in this area.

Oh dear, is she not feeling well?
Alvin - Haha...she just collapsed from rumbling stomach.
Head - This is bad.
Our village isn't too far from here.
Why don't you drop by for some meal?

Alvin - Our pleasure then.
Jude - Alvin!
[Have some shame!]
Head - Don't mind it. This way.

Pg. 12-13
Alvin - I'm eating now~!

Head - This village is Hamill Village.
In this small village, we make our living by growing fruits.
I'm the head of this village.
Now, eat up. No need to hold back.
Jude - I'll be eating then.

Milla - Hmm...
I just experience meal for the first time,
but this...

Alvin - Taste great.
Milla - That!

Jude - Milla?

Human body is so intriguing.
When you're hungry, you eat delicious food. When you're full, you just heed to the sound of nature.
Human
should treasure these experiences more...

Pg. 14
Jude - Whoa!

M-Milla...
Head - Oh my, she's just as natural as a little child.

I have a spare room on the second floor.
Feel free to use it.
Alvin - Thanks, old lady.
Now then.
Jude - Ah, Alvin.

Alvin - Don't worry. I'm just doing a little side service.

Pg. 15
Jude - The kids look so cheerful.

'Morning, Milla.
Did you have a good sleep?

Milla - Yeah, this is the first time I fell asleep...
It made me feel really good.

Alvin - ...But you aren't just joking when you said you're Maxwell, right?
I know that you're kinda weird, but you look like a normal girl to me.
Milla - Well, I do have my own reason for that.

Pg. 16
Originally, spirits are clusters of mana created from wishes of people.
In our original form, we're incapable of doing anything in the human world.
So, in order to materialize in this world, a spirit needs a catalyst that corresponds to its element.
For example, the spirit of fire, Efreet, needs fire in order to create his form.
As I'm the spirit of origin, human body is an optimum catalyst for me.

Alvin - I see.
Good that the catalyst isn't some old geezer then, right, Jude!

Jude - I-I'm not even thinking...!!

Alvin - Let's leave the talk for now then.
I've asked the head of the village about Ni Acelia.
She said she only heard of it back when she was still very young,
that it's located beyond Kijara Seafalls up north from here.

Pg. 17
Milla - It's just a short walk after we climb the giant waterfall.
I often went there for a little walk on the water with Undine.
Alvin - Haha...As expected of the Great Maxwell. Her hobby is rather unique.

Anyway, let's get going before the pursuers come.
Milla - Right.

[La Schugall's soldiers!?]

Jude - They already got to this village?
Alvin - What to do then?

Pg. 18
Milla - We'll charge right in...

Chiao - Those La Schugall ruffians,
just barging into our territory!

Soldier - WAH!

Alvin - Who's that giant?
Jude - I'm not sure either, but...looks like that our escape way is all sorted out now.

Pg. 19
Milla - Before we lose our chance, let's go.
Alvin - Right.

Jude - A girl...?

Did she run out of that house because of this uproar?
Milla - Hey, Jude, what're you doing!

Alvin - Let's go!
Jude - Oh, right.

Pg. 20
[Kyzel Seastream]
Jude - ...Say, Milla.
Milla - Hm?
Jude - Will that village...really be OK?
They might even try to protect us. I wonder how the kids are doing right now...
Milla - Does that bother you?

Jude - Erm, well...

Milla - Then Jude,
you can head back.

It was only a short time, but I really appreciate being with you.

Pg. 21
Jude - Why did you jump to that conclusion!?

Milla - ...Why're you angry?
You want me to be more sentimental?
Jude - That's not it...
Milla - I still have my mission. I can't let myself to be carried off by my feelings.

Jude - How could you cut off people so easily as though it's normal?
You can't have any sentiment in order fulfill your mission?

Pg. 22
Milla - Let me ask you back then, Jude.
Can people fulfill their missions without having to discard their feeling?

Jude - ...How...
How should I know...?
I haven't even try it yet...

Milla - That's the point. As I'm not a human, I wouldn't know that as well.
So why don't you give it a try?
Jude - Eh?

Milla - If you try to fulfill your mission
in your own way, you might be able to get that answer.

Jude - My mission...

Pg. 23
Alvin - Well, like they said, worrying doesn't help, eh?

Milla - Haven't been here for so long...
This really brings back memories.
It was a perfect place to meditate.

But...those soldiers from La Schugall...
I can only see it as that...this Jin is extremely important to them.

Pg. 24
[When that Spear of Kresnik was activated,]
[immense amount of Mana was concentrated into this.]
[There's no doubt that this is the key to operate that weapon.]

Wha...!!

Pg. 25
Preza - Tired, aren't you?

You're a little...
too-care-less.
Milla - [Who's...this woman!?]

Are you from La Schugall!?

Preza - Ufu...
Not-tell-ing.

Pg. 26
Where did you hide it then...?
Your precious...

Milla - What're you doing!?

[She's after...]
[the Key to the Spear of Kresnik!?]

Preza - What's this thing?

Milla - [Does this mean, she didn't know that the key had transformed...?]

Pg. 27
Preza - Give me...the Key to the Spear of Kresnik, will you?

Milla - I won't!
[She's really after it!]

Ugh.

Jude - Milla!!

Pg. 28
Preza - ...Oh?
So you're working for this girl this time?

Milla - What? You knew h-...
GWAH.
Jude - Milla!!!

Milla - It's futile...I have no feeling of pain nor fear.

Alvin - ...Will you let her go?
That girl's important to me.

Pg. 29
Preza - Don't come any nearer...
Or else...there's no telling what'll happen to her.

Jude - Alvin.

Preza - Oh, ignoring my warning, I see? You're trashing this girl now?
You just never changed.

Such a heartless-...

Pg. 30
That rock...turns into a monster!?

Pg. 31

Pg. 32
Alvin - ...Phew.

Milla - That's rather crude of you.
Alvin - Oh, don't say it like that.
That was Jude's idea, y'know?

Milla - Really?...You thought up that plan?
Jude - Ah.
Yeah.
There was this monster which is camouflaging as a rock, so I thought if we attack it, we might be able to make our chance...
So I have Alvin go into her blindspot.

Alvin - You sure can thought that up in that short time...
That's great.
Well...That's not something everyone can do,
right!
Jude - Y-You think so?

Pg. 33
Milla - Let me thank you again then.
Jude,

Alvin,

thank you.

Jude - Haha...
Something only I can do...huh?

...Milla,
guess I'll go with you rather than heading back.

Pg. 34
Milla - [Your mood has changed, I see.]

...Right,
always letting your imagination runs wild, hm.
Alvin - Well, you're totally welcomed~

Milla - Humans...are really amazing.

Everything's all settled then.
Now, let's go
to Ni Acelia.

** With their new discovery, they head onto their destination!! **
