Title：　ウワサのあやしい占い師
The Rumored Suspicious Fortune-Teller


Page 2
Kaburagi：　占い？
って朝テレビでやってる今日の運勢は～みたいなやつ？
Fortune-telling?
Like the guy on the TV in the morning who's all, "Your fortune for today is..."?

Hachiya：　違う違うもっとガチなやつ！
駅前にさーいるんだって占い師が
No, no, someone more tasteful than that!
I heard there's a fortune-teller in front of the station.

Girl：　超当たるらしいよ！
It seems like you're right.

Hachiya：　開業したばっかでさ今ならダメでカンガンな「助言」みたいなのしてくれんだってさー！
放課後行ってみようよ
The place just opened up. It'll be no good right now - they're just going to give us stuff like embarrassing "advice."
Let's go after school.

Kaburagi：　へぇ～・・・
Uhh...

Hachiya：　なにさ興味なさそーな声だな
What, it doesn't sound like you're interested.

Kaburagi：　えー・・・だって占いでしょ？
どうもうさん臭いイメージが強いというか・・・
Uh...but...fortune-telling?
It's kind of a suspicious image or something...

Hachiya：　なに？　興味ない？　占いに？
女子のくせに占いに興味ないの？　おやおや・・・
What? You're not interested? In fortune-telling?
You're a girl and yet you're not interested? Oh-ho...

Kaburagi：　そんなことない！　超興味ある！
待って　行く　行く　行きます！
It's not like that! I'm really interested!
Wait, I'll go, I'll go, I'm going!

Hachiya：　フッ　ちょろい娘だこと
Fuh, such a simple girl.

Girl：　シンヤはここ刺激すっと弱いよね
Shinya doesn't take that much motivating.

Hachiya：　よーし　あと２人くらいツレ欲しいなー
All right, I need about two more people to go.


Page 3
Mimasaka：　・・・と言うわけで行くぞ　放課後！
That said, let's go after school!

Fuji：　なんで決定事項なんだよ
俺はパス
What are you deciding that for?
I'll pass.

Mimasaka：　誰もオマエの参加にゃ期待してねーよ
No one expected you to participate.

Ashitaba：　ああ・・・なんか女子の間で流行ってるやつでしょ
・・・って・・・
僕の参加は決定済みなの・・・？
Ahh...that's something that's popular with girls, right?
I mean...
Did you already decide on me coming?

Mimasaka：　おーあと本好な！
Oh, and Motoyoshi!

Ashitaba：　お・・・男ばっかりで行くの・・・？　占いへ・・・？
Are only boys going to the fortune-teller?

Fuji：　占いとか血液型とか女ってくだらねーもん好きだよな
あんなの全部出まかせだろ
Girls like all that annoying stuff like fortunte-telling and blood types.
Something like that is going to make them all come out.

Mimasaka：　わかってね～な～　オマエの女子の興味あることに 興味持つのはモテの基本だぞ！
You don't get it. Especially your interest in girls. Being interested in them is one of the ground rules of being popular!

Fuji：　結局そこかよ　お前は
It's always like that in the end for you.

Hades-sensei：　なんだか心配だな・・・
中学生だけで行っていいようなところなの？
I'm kind of worrired...
Is it okay for students to go to a place like that by themselves?

Mimasaka：　おっ　じゃあ先生も一緒に行くかー？
なんでもその占い師がみてくれんのは未来とかじゃあないらしいんだよなー
Oh, sensei, you gonna come too?
It seems what the fortune-teller shows you isn't anything like your future or whatever.

Someone：　へぇ・・・そうなの？
Ah...really?

Mimasaka：　おーウワサによるとだな・・・
Oh, according to the rumors...

Kaburagi：　私の長所
ですか・・・？
My strong point

Kaburagi：　ど・・・どうも・・・へへ・・・
Th...thank you...hehe...


Page 5
Hachiya：　おっ
Ohh!

Girl：　帰ってきた！
She's back!

Hachiya：　ねーねー　どーだったぁ？
Hey, hey, how was it?

Kaburagi：　ほ・・・ほめてもらうって気持ちいねえ・・・
He... he praised me...it made me feel good...

Hachiya：　でっしょー　だよな　だよなー！
なーなんて言われた？
Right? Didn't I say so? Huh?
So, what did he tell you?

Girl：　いやータダでいい思いしちゃったねえ
We had a good time for free!

Fortune-teller：　あなたの長所は「母性」です
ご兄弟の多い家庭で育たれたのかな・・・優しさと責任感に満ち溢れています

善の道も悪の道もひとりの人間にとことん付き従える精神は驚嘆に値します

Page 6
Fortune-teller：　あなたの長所は「忍耐力」です
その根源にあるものは「怒り」・・・果たして人に対してのものなのか自分に対してのものなのか
あなたはずっと怒りを腹に抱えてうずくまったまま「何か」を待ち続けている
いや・・・あるいは探している・・・？
何か・・・大きな目的がありのようだ・・・
Your strong point is "patience."
It is rooted in "anger"...is it really towards a person or is it towards yourself?
While you keep cowering and holding in your anger, you continue to wait for "something."
No...possibly, you're searching for something...?
Something...it seems you have great objectives.

Niburu：　うふふ・・・
面白かったです・・・また来ますわ
見せたい友人がいるの
Ufufu...
That was interesting. I'll have to come back.
I have a friend I'd like you to see.

Fortune-teller：　これはごひいきにありがとうございます
拝見するだけなら無料ですから・・・いくらでも
Thank you for coming.
If you only want me to see him, then I won't charge anything...as much as you want.

Niburu：　怪しい奴・・・
考えすぎてあればいいけど
He's suspicious...
I hope I'm just overthinking things...


Page 7
Kaburagi：　えーっ　じゃあ　美作くんたちもあの占いのお店行ったの？
私　あんまり占いとか信じる方じゃないんだけど
ああいう占い師さんもいるんだなーって感じだよね
Ehh? So then, Mimasaka and everyone went to the fortune-teller's too?
I don't really believe in stuff like fortune-teller's but
I got the feeling like "there's even a fortune-teller like that."

Mimasaka：　うむ・・・イッパツで俺の長所を見抜くとは中々ウデの立つ奴だったな
藤　会話に入ってこれなくてサミシーだろ　今度付き合ってやろうか？
Hm...he was a pretty talented guy, seeing through my strong points in one shot like that.
Fuji's probably lonely cause he can't join in the conversation. Are you going to go with us this time?

Fuji：　だーから興味ねーって言ってんだろ
I told you, I'm not interested.

Ashitaba：　・・・でもさあなんか怪しくない？
But...wasn't it kind of suspicious?

Mimasaka：　何がだよ？
What was?

Ashitaba：　これだけ話題になってて評判もいいのに・・・なんで　お金取らないのかなって
なんか企んでそうな雰囲気しない？
He hasn't been talked about that much but he has a good reputation. Why didn't he charge us anything?
Didn't the atmosphere feel like he was scheming something?

Fuji：　そりゃお前　金取らねーから話題になってて評判いいんだろ
いずれ釣る鯛のために今はエビまいてるだけだろうよ
Well, he didn't charge anything because everyone's talking about him and he has a good reputation.
Right now he's only laying out the shrimp for the bass that he's fishing for.

Ashitaba：　あっ・・・なるほど
そうか・・・確かにそうだよね
Ahh, I see.
True...that's certainly true.

Motoyoshi：　でも・・・気になるんでしょ？
アシタバくん勘がいいから
君がそう言うならあんまりのめり込まない方がいいのかもね・・・
But...doesn't it worry you?
You do have good intuition.
If you put it that way, it'd probably best if you didn't fall for it too much...

Ashitaba：　えっ？　いや・・・
僕のは大抵気にしすぎだから・・・はは　そんな・・・
Eh? No...
I generally just worry too much...ha ha...no way...

Text box：　そうして　一週間と経たないうちにー・・・
And so, before one week had passed...


Page 8
Text box： 「駅前の占い師」の噂はまたたく間に学校中に広がり
一躍大ブームとなったのだった
In the blink of an eye, rumors of the "fortune-teller in front of the station" spread throughout the school.
It had suddenly boomed.

Fuji：　やっぱりちょっと気になるなぁ
くだらねー一過性のブームだよ
すぐ飽きるって
So you really are worried a little.
It's just an annoying fad that'll pass.
They'll get tired of it soon.

Hades-sensei：　みんな　藤くんみたいな子ばかりならそんな心配しないけど・・・
If everyone were like you, I wouldn't be so worried...

Fuji：　うーん・・・
Yeah...


Page 9
Hades-sensei：　なるほど　これがそうか
I see. So it's something like that.

Mitogawa：　中学生が利用するに相応しい店かとうかいずれ調査しようと思っていたが・・・
丁度いい　君　どうすれば保健室が繁盛するのか占ってもらったらどうだ？
I was thinking you should investigate whether or not it's appropriate for middle school students to use sometime so...
Good timing. If you do that, what will you do if he predicts that the infirmary will flourish?

Hades-sensei：　あの・・・最後尾ですか・・・？
Um...is this the end of the line...?

Girl：　えっ？　
あっはい　よ　よかったら前どうぞ！
Eh?
Ah, yes! If...if you want, you can get ahead of me!

Girl：　私もあとでいいです
It's okay if get ahead of me too!

Girl：　私も
Me too.

Someone：　なんだあの人すごい外見だな・・・
芸能人？
Wow, that guy has a really crazy appearance...
Is he a performer?

Someone：　いや　この辺の学校の先生らしいよ・・・
No, I hear he's a teacher at the school around here.

Someone：　ええっ
Whaaat!

Hades-sensei：　この気配・・・まさか・・・
すみません　通してください
That presence...it can't be...
I'm sorry, please let me pass!

Guy：　あッ
おい　兄ちゃん　割り込んでじゃねーよ！
Ah!
Hey, man, no cutting in line!


Page 10
Fortune-teller：　次の方・・・
いらっしゃいませ・・・
お名前と生年月日をどうぞ
Next person...
Welcome.
Please tell me your name and birthdate.

Hades-sensei：　あ・・・
Ah...


Page 11
Hades-sensei：　参ったな・・・なんて説明するか・・・
すみません
僕はお客では・・・
Oh, man...how am I going to explain this...
I'm sorry.
I'm not a customer...

Fortune-teller：　あらあ・・・そうなんですか？
まあでもひとつ座ってくださいよ　そんなにお時間取らせませんし・・・
お金も取りませんよ
あ・・・お名前面倒だったら書かなくてもいいですよ
こういうの聞いた方が本格的かなと思って・・・ふふふ
この格好も内装も全部雰囲気作りのためなんです
あ　でも
この水晶は必要なんですよ
・・・って言ったら信じます？　ふふふ・・・
Ahh, is that so?
Well, still, please sit for a moment. It won't take that much time.
I won't even charge you anything.
Ahh...if your name is difficult, it's fine if you don't write it.
You're thinking, "Is it normal to be asked things like that?" Fufufu...
This appearance and the interior design are just for the sake of creating a mood.
Ah, but
I need this crystal.
If I said that, would you believe me? Fufufu...

Hades-sensei：　間違いない・・・病魔の気配の元はこの人だ・・・
There's no mistaking it...he's the source of the disease demon's presence.

Fortune-teller：　お望みでしたら呪文とか唱えますけど・・・
If you have any wishes, I'll recite an incantation...

Hades-sensei：　だが・・・無自覚なのか？　この態度・・・
何も知らない人にあまり強引な真似はしたくないが・・・
But...is he unaware of it? This behavior...
I don't want to be too forcible with someone who doesn't know anything but...


Page 12
Fortune-teller：　保健室の先生・・・
ああ・・・これだそうでしょう？
当たりですよね・・・
うふふ・・・そうびっくりしてくれるとこっちもやり甲斐ありますね
占いははじめてですか？
一度この水晶に心を取り込まれたならば・・・
あなたはもう私に嘘を吐くことができない
さあ・・・どんどんいきましょう
私はあなたの「長所」が知りたい！
You're a school nurse.
Ahh, is that true?
I got it right...
Ufufu...if I can surprise you like that, then it was worth doing.
Is this the first time you've had your fortune told?
If this crystal captures your heart once...
You can no longer lie to me.
Well, then...let's go.
I want to know your "strong point"!

Hades-sensei：　僕の話
聞いてもらってもいいでしょうか・・・
・・・なんだ？　この人は・・・
Can you listen
To what I have to say...?
What's with him?


Page 13
Cellphone：　経一
鈍！！！！！
結婚しよう
本当に削除しますか？
はい
いいえ
Keiichi
Niburu!!!!!
Let's get married
Do you want really want to delete this message?
Yes
No

Niburu：　経一・・・
Keiichi...

Keiichi：　あっ鈍ちゃん！　メール見てくれた？
待ってろ　今　指輪代稼ぐから・・・
Ah, Niburu-chan! Did you see my text?
Just wait. Cause I'm earning the cost of your ring right now...

Niburu：　どうでもいい
それよりさっさと切り上げてきて頂戴・・・話があるの
Whatever.
More importantly, hurry up and finish up...I have something to talk to you about.

Keiichi：　は？　話って・・・
ま・・・！　まさか　告ー・・・
Huh? Talk to me about...
No...no way...are you telling me -

Niburu：　仕事の話よ
・・・駅前で怪しい男を見つけたわ
カンだけど・・・そいつもしかしたら
It's about work.
I've found a suspicious man in front of the station.
It's just my intuition but...it's possible that


Page 14
Niburu：　罹人かもしれない
He's a kakarito.

Hades-sensei：　もしこの人が罹人でー・・・
その力を仕事（占い）のためだけに覚悟と代償のもと利用しているのであれば
僕に口を挟む権利はない・・・まずは何が目的か見極めなくては
すごいですね・・・なんだか緊張してきました
占い師さんなんて神秘的なお仕事だけに不思議な力がおありなんでしょうか
If he's a kakarito...
If he only uses the power for fortune-telling with resolution knowing that it doesn't require compensation...
He doesn't have any right to interrupt me...if I don't first make sure what his goals are...
Amazing...that made me a little nervous.
Since fortune-tellers have mysterious jobs, one would expect they would have strange powers, right?

Fortune-teller：　そうでもないですよ　私ぁデタラメを言うだけです
そいつの真偽をこの水晶が教えてくれるだけで　ふふふ・・・さて
ご結婚は・・・？　されてない？
おモテにならないのかな・・・
したくない・・・それとも
大切な人を作りたくない・・・
It's not quite like that. I'm only speaking nonsense.
The crystal is going to tell me what's true or false.
You haven't been married?
Are you not well-liked...
You don't want to...or perhaps
You don't want to have any important people...


Page 15
Hades-sensei：　・・・その様子では
僕が口で否定してみても意味はなさそうですね
Those circumstances...
Even if I try to deny it by saying it, it seems it won't have any meaning.

Fortune-teller：　さあ・・・？　どうでしょう・・・私には・・・
あくまでも判断するのは水晶（コレ）ですから・・・
Who knows? I wonder...
It's the crystal who is judging you thoroughly...

Hades-sensei：　そんなに凄い力がおありなのに・・・
何故突然常伏町へ？
それに・・・そんな力があればもっと色々な占いができそうですけど
「長所」というところにずいぶんこたわりがあるんですね・・・
Even though you have such an amazing power...
Why have you suddenly come to Tokofushi-chou?

Fortune-teller：　・・・あの　すみません
ちょっと・・・黙って・・・黙・・・
Ah, I'm sorry...
Be quiet for a little while...be quiet -

Hades-sensei：　その水晶の「中」
いっぱいになったらどうなるんですか・・・？
The inside of that crystal...
If it became filled up, what would it become...?

Forunte-teller：　出た
あなたの「長所」－・・・
It's come out.
Your strong point...


Page 16
Hades-sensei：　・・・え
Eh....


Page 17
Hades-sensei：　そ・・・んな
どうして・・・
なんで出てきた・・・これは・・・
No...way...
Why...
Why...did it come out...


Page 18
Hades-sensei：　僕の病魔だ！
It's my disease demon!

Fortune-teller：　なんだ・・・これは・・・これが「長所」・・・
ま・・・さか
あなたも・・・私と同じ「力」・・・が
What...this...this is your "strong point..."
It can't...be...
You have the same power...as I do...

Hades-sensei：　「長所」・・・！
"Strong point"...!

Mimasaka：　なんでもその占い師が視てくれんのは未来とかじゃあないらしーんだよな
It seems what the fortune-teller shows you isn't anything like your future or whatever.

Someone：　へえ・・・そうなの？
Ah...really?

Mimasaka：　おー　ウワサによると・・・
Oh, according to the rumors.

Hades-sensei：　こいつの目的・・・！
町中の人の「長所」を吟味して・・・目当てが来るのを待っていた・・・？
仕事(うらない）を介して・・・
ならば・・・こいつの真の目的とは・・・
That's his intention...
Carefully investigate the "strong points" of the people downtown and wait for his goal to come...?
Through being a fortune-teller...
If that's the case...his true goal is...


Page 19
Fortune-teller：　すばらしい・・・
羨ましい・・・羨ましいぞ・・・！
あなたの「長所」！　私がもらった！
Wonderful...
I'm jealous...so jealous...!
Your strong point! I've taken it!
