Ao no Exorcist 22

I'm employed o/ part-time but yeeeaaah :3 I now realize it's a lot harder to translate English to Japanese as compared to Japanese to English... I work for a Japanese property agent, btw~ XD

Anyway, shouting out to any AnE fans out there who, like me, are getting their much-dreaded A Level results this Friday... (Yes addenza that's you...) ALL THE BEST!!!! >___<

b4a: No, it would be bad if anything happened to you
b4b: Even if it was me, it'd be too difficult to carry the two eyes.....
b5: Let's take a little breather
b6a: No!!
b6b: The earlier...
b7: We get this abominable eyeball to a safe place, the better...!
b8: To think Mamushi-san was the traitor...
b9: Where the hell did they go!?
b10a: They removed it from the mahoubin (TN: 魔法瓶 - magic bottle. Apologies, I mistranslated this in ch20, thinking it referred to the homa-mandala)
b10b: We won't be able to track it so easily
b11: ......
b12: Calm down, everyone!

b1: Regain your composure
b2a: Oh.....

above Tatsuma: Nahaha!
b4: What are you talking about...

b1b: Be good and listen
b1c: To what your mom and teachers tell you

b1b: You're just trying to get rid of me!
b2: Don't give me that crap!!
b3: Hah... After all... I'm just some nobody...

b2b: Apologize to your dad!! Do it while you can!
b3: This has nothing to do with you!!!!
b4: Shut the hell up!!
b5: Don't cut off your father so nonchalantly!!!!

b1: I don't wanna be told that by you
b2: Not by you, the one who said he'd defeat Satan...!!
b3: !
b4a: Now, now, Okumura-kun, Ryuuji
b4b: Let's shake hands and make up
b4c: Okay?
b5: ... You can just go wherever the hell you like

b5b: Gyachi-gyachi gabichi yanju-yanju tachibana sowaka! (TN: This is from a mantra called "rokuji myouou" [六字明王] or "six word Myouou"; Shura is doing the hand sign for it as well)

20
b1: Rin
b2a: Haah
b2b: Haah

b5: The next time you let out your flames and go wild, you'll be executed as a target that needs exorcising
b6: Calm down...!
b7: ... my way
b8: This is... Important
b9: Don't get in my way... Ugly bitch!

21
b1:On gyachi-gyachi gabichi yanju-yanju
b2: I... AHHHHH
b3: Rin!
b4: Rin!!
b5: Damn fool...
b6a: Oooi
b6b: Somebody!
text above Shura: Kuro
b7: !?

22
b1: Help me quarantine this guy, will ya?
b2: He's already passed out. It's safe
b3a: Captain Kirigakure....!
b3b: Gohoh
b4a: Branch Chief!
b4b: Sorry for causing such a ruckus here!
b5: ... You do have an explanation for the events that transpired, don't you?
b6: Yes ♡ Of course!
b7a: ... Good
b7b: Come, Juuzou
b7c: Gohoh gohoh
b8a: Wha...
b8b: Please hold on
b8c: Those flames were...!!

23
b1a: Juuzou
b1b: Right now, the thing we should be prioritizing is finding the whereabouts of the Right Eye
b2: !
b3: Listen up. You go follow the Most High Priest
b4: ... The Most High Priest?
b5a: We'll do whatever we can
b5b: Make sure he doesn't catch you
b6: ... Got it!
b7: Kirigakure-san, you're Rin-kun's guardian, correct?
b8: Nnya!?

24
text next to Tatsuma: Wow, nice ass you got there!
b1: Take care of Rin-kun
b2: Oi!!
b3: ... Hm?
b4a: Eh!?
b4b: Wait a sec...
b5a~b5bc: Bu--
b6: That old geezer sure is something...
text below b6: He actually touched my ass...
b7: Shura!
b8a: Oh, it's just Yukio
b8b: What's up over on your side?
b8c: Things have gotten pretty bad over here...
b9: Eh?

25
b1: Yukio!
b2: Shura-san

26
b1: What's going on?
b2a: We couldn't contact you earlier because of signal interferences
b2b: More importantly, what do you mean by things have gotten pretty...
b3a: Left Eye Recovery Squad Captain
b3b: Tarsem Mahal
b4: Reinforcement Squad Cap'n, Kirigakure
b5a: Kyoto Branch Office Chief
b5b: Shima Yaozou
b6: !
b7: Welcome
b8a: All the people in charge are here. I'd like to call an urgent meeting right here
b8b: Is that alright?
b9: Sure

27
b1: As embarrassing as this is
b2: We, the Kyoto Branch Office, have also had the Right Eye stolen by a traitor
b3: The probability that the attempt on the Eye earlier on was orchestrated by this traitor, too, is high
b4: Her name is Houjou Mamushi
left of the picture, going downwards: Name | Sex | Date of Birth | Height | Blood Type
right of the picture: Dialect | Kyoto-ben
below the picture: True Cross Order | Kyoto Branch Office Shinbu | Thus, she was appointed | Immediately
b5: A Middle First Class exorcist, she was the captain of the Shinbu First Division
b6: Right now, Mamushi has escaped with the aid of Toudou
b7: I see
b8: ... That means that both the Left and Right eyes have fallen into the hands of the enemy, huh?
b9: Wha!?
b10: --- Actually, the vehicle we were following turned out to be a decoy

28
b1a: We found the corpses of two exorcists in the car
b1b: What's more, they even went as far as to interfere with the signals
b2: Such elaborate stalling probably means...
b3: That Toudou already has the Left Eye in his possession. It would be most natural to arrive at that conclusion
b4: How can that be...!!
b5: Branch Chief
b6: Ugh... Gehoh gohoh
b7: Branch Chief Shima
b8: Sorry to interrupt
b9: Just what are the Left and Right Eyes of the Impure King?

29
b1: ........
b2: Over the past two hundred years, the Myou Dha
b3: Has been keeping numerous "secrets"
b4: Even we, the upper echelons, know not what exactly they are
b5: Much less those below us, who do not even know of their existence
b6a: The only one who knows all these "secrets"
b6b: And who keeps them
b7: Is our temple's head priest, Most High Priest Suguro Tatsuma

30
a1: And according to the legends of Myou Dha
a2: When the Left and Right Eyes are together
a3: It is said that they will produce a new, even more noxious miasma
b1: No way...
b2: To release that new, even more noxious miasma
b3: Is that their objective?
b4a: The fact that it's something new doesn't sound good
b4b: Depending on the situation, we, the True Cross Order may not be able to handle it on our own!
b5: In any case, we have to locate Toudou and Houjou Mamushi as soon as possible...
a4: Avert danger!!
