Chapter 12: many places

Riharua Desert [Don't remember what this is called in Viz's version]

What's wrong Dominique?

Dominique.

Are you all right?

Despair is overtaking me.

It's so... deep.

Page 107

Has something happened?
No.
My partner's feeling dizzy because of the sun's rays.

He should rest in the sun's shade...
It's the "sun" that people from the north can stand. [There seems to be a play on words here, need to double check]
Yes.

Is it from Number One, Dominique?

There is no one else I know of that could possess such strong feelings...

No. Four...
Did he die?

Mister Seven... You don't feel it?

No...

Page 108

When I was in the Rainbow Council, my heart would often waver like that, but now it is quiet like the calm sea.

How nice...

This is almost like...
*Za... [Grimacing sound]

like...

Roupa District [Alt: Sector] Number Three's fortress [Alt: Castle, HQ][Don't remember if these areas are introduced earlier in the Viz volumes nor what romanizations of the areas names they used]
UUUuuu...

Ooo...

Oooo...

Page 110

Is this your's...

No. One?

Ipe-po Province
Number Two's fortress [HQ, castle, etc]

Gu-ba county
Number One's fortress [Castle, since this one really is pretty much a castle]

*Oooooo [Strong wind]

Hm.
Reni-a Mountain Range
Altitude: approx 3800 meters

Page 119

You've got quite a few friends with you, Matroshka.
Did you invite them here?

*Ooo [wind]

Page 120

I'll have you march for a bit, my lady. My subordinate is waiting close by.

He's a man with a gentle heart, unlike me.
He cannot even stand up because of the overwhelming despair he is in.

*Goooooooo [wind]

*Kyahahaha... [Just kids laughing]

Page 123

Mike [One] seems to have disappeared, hasn't he, doctor.
Yes.

Why might that be?

We're in the middle of investigating that right now,
We think that he has probably gone to confirm the safety of Number Four...

How troublesome, carelessly doing something like that at a time like this.
We apologize.

Roroipa channel
Depth: approx 100 meters

Page 124

This couldn't possibly be a declaration of his intent towards the higher ups who passed down the decision to disband the Rainbow Peacekeeping Corps, could it? I would certainly hope not.

No, of course not...

He is seriously acting like a crestfallen Prince.

It's not as though I said we were going to remove him and his whole group from the military...
Right?

Yes...

Please try to explain all of these things earnestly to him, doctor.
After all you're the one he's _emotionally attached_ to, right?

Page 125

But for Mike, the Rainbow Council is everything, Mister Donovan.

Hmph, so it's a question of how he feels about it then, hmm?

In other words, if the rest of his group is sympathetic towards him...

Empathetic, doctor. It's different than sympathy.

You don't think that we've somewhat overestimated him, do you? You could say that perhaps that's what has caused this tragedy to come about.

It's a good chance for him to learn that he is nothing more than a paper tiger.

Page 126

Take care.

Hmph. What a despicable person.
Has he sensed it?

Hm-?
Mike may have realized that you sent for Victor.

It's possible.

Shall I increase the number of guards?
That is unnecessary.

Page 127

I cannot be killed by those children. [I guess you can keep it children...]

That is how I made them.

We're standing in front of Number One's castle.

Page 128

It's been one day since its master has vanished.

The castle grounds have been wrapped up in this bizarre atmosphere because of this sudden event.

The reason for his disappearance is still unclear but,
there are rumors that he may have been kidnapped by organizations hostile to the Rainbow Council,

and we are worried about his well being.

Page 129

Also, the whereabouts of Number Four, who had been pursuing Number Five, were lost around a month ago,
one can only guess if he was in any sort of contact with the two.

Finally, whose bike was it that was discovered at the foot of the Reni-a mountain range?

This is an eyewitness' report.

A chubby 'un, yerp. eyes were big 'n' round.

Well, I 'ad my eyes on on the woman.
*Nmo~ [The cattle?]

*Za- [Tv static]

Page 130

The air is tepid...
Where am I?

What? A boat? It's a boat.

I see.
I ride on this and I...

Page 131

I,

What?

Rain?

15 years ago...
The man who was
Victor's subordinate. [Actually this is Yu-ri not Nazalov, I think all the people under any of the numbered rainbow council people wear #10. If we pay attention to the numerous astrological references, there's only #1-9 since there's 9 planets anyways]

Everything begins [Continued on Page 136]

15 years ago...
Suddenly, the woman
appears.
