Belmonde le VisiteuR 12

Horribly late, but not my fault.
Let's catch up to the action.
I have a hunch the story is finally going somewhere...

01
top: The 12th act: 黄土に捧ぐ十字架 - The Ocher Cross
(t/n - lit. - "the cross dedicated to ochre" I am unsure what this means...oudo can mean earth or hades apparently although i've never come across those uses. do you have a better suggestion? please post your ideas)

white: What's going to happen to the stolen eye...!?
right: ishioka shouei

-Go double check that we weren't followed
-Musketon, tend to Georges' wounds
-Aye, aye
-Roger

-Welcome back, Porthos
-Welcome home!

02
-Why you--!
-d'Artagnan!!
-GUAA!!

-Mu!!

-What are you doing outside?! Sick people should be stay in bed!

-Haha...sorry, sorry...I just popped my head out
-Please scold him some more!
-He won't listen to a thing Jeanne (ジャンヌ) says!! (t/n - cute(?) speaking 3rd person)

03
-Hey, here's the thing you wanted

-The eye of a live witch

-Wow! What a strange color!
-Don't drop it, Jeanne

-Kya!!

-Gotcha!
-I'm gonna kick your ass...
(t/n - he talks like cornello with "kora"! quite a bit. That's from reborn if you don't know what i mean. I've been dropping them...dont know how to trans.)

-Even if it is fresh...
-The fact that it came from an inquisitor is a bit distressing...

04
---de!!

-monsieur Belmonde!!
-Hang in there!

-Ung...
-Thank heavens! He's regained consciousness!

-...the royal guard?
-Yes
-Since Roland did not return on time, we assumed that something had happened

-...how is...Roland...and everyone else?
-They're safe. Right now we're seeing to their wounds
-I see...

05
-Wait, Georges was about to kill me at that moment--

-So...shall we end this?

-What are you doing!!

-Right back at 'ya!
-We need him alive!
-I know I already explained why!

-Ch...

-Fine. Let's get out of here

-Georges...what are you up to...

06
-What is that, Musketon?

-緑眼の種子 - An "emerald eye seed"

-When it absorbs blood, it sprouts roots which suture wounds

-GYAAA!!

-Put up with the pain. It will be over when a new seed sprouts.

07
-Fufu....this pain is a reminder...
-That i've finally betrayed those two

-do you
-have regrets?
-I wouldn't understand. I have no family or friends.

-...please
-Besides, this isn't over yet

-As soon as this mission is over,
-I'm going to finish him off!

08
-Hey! Wake up!

-Whaddya want?
-Don't give me that! Look, I brought it

-OOH! That silver glisten...it's the rare...
-"Penetrating eye," without a doubt!

-p-please...let me hold it!!
-no dice. Get yourself ready
-Hmph...stingy little runt!

-huh...descendant of the witches or no, you still disgust me!
-Jeanne likes ouvre-san! (t/n - オーブル　is his name, apparently. it's a french textile?)
-Haha, you have strange taste, Jeanne
-Jeanne likes monsieur d'Art too!
-Ehh...are you calling me strange?

09
-Well then, I'm about to start
-I'll perform the transfer ritual with this "penetrating eye"

sfx - splish

-tsuuu

-I was once
-called the hero of France

10
-Everything was done in the name of loyalty to His Majesty
-To think that I would be seeking the power of the witches...life is sure full of surprises

-...yet, without this eye that has the power to see the truth,
-Our plan will not succeed

-Suoovuzu-ehi-emuookusu-eri (t/n - your guess is as good as mine. is this just nonsense or a valid language?)
古の習わしによりて保有者の変更をこいねがう
-In the name of the ancient ritual, I request thee to permit this transfer

-The battle is about to begin
-for us, members of the "Ocher Cross"

11
-Hear my call, O Coffin of Reason!!

-Guah!!
-W-what's going on!?

-Come! Take this "penetrating eye" inside of you!

12
-GWAGH!!

-After this, you will experience excruciating pain as the eye travels through your body
-As long as the original owner is alive up until it reaches the place it belongs...the transfer will be a success

-UNGGHGHGGH!!!
-I dedicate whatever time I have left to this battle
-My goal being the one I once swore my loyalty to...

-To assassinate his Majesty, Louie the 13th!!

13
-Why are so many of Richelieu's personal squadron here?

-What, you didn't know?
-He's here!

14
-Richelieu himself!!
box:
-Cardinal of France (t/n - or prime minister? although officially cardinal, his role was that of a prime minister)
-Armand-Jean du Plessis de Richelieu

15
-I open my eyes,
-and right in front of me is the man who holds more power than anyone in France
-I must still be dreaming. Everything's been one long nightmare lately, after all

-I'll just ignore him

-H-HEY!! How dare you!!
-Calm down.

-For the man who is said to be the "one who can see the truth,"
-never realizing that you would be betrayed by the one closest to you
-is quite an oversight

-hmph
-Your connection to me is supposed to be a national secret
-Are you sure it's all right to be traipsing around here?

16
-It matters not
-Because the life you have here is about to end

-...
-really...
-...mm,
-I thought we agreed that if the outside world was to find out about me,

-I would be erased to hide the evidence

17
-...I am indispensable to this nation
足を引っ張る存在は呼ばれようが切り捨てる
-No matter how heartless it may seem, my role is to eliminate those who would stand against it (t/n - my guess based on context. not sure)

-Haha...how magnificent
-So how will you kill me? Since I'm a witch I assume burning at the stake?

-...perhaps sometime in the future
-But after hearing you mention the name Porthos in your sleep,
-The situation has changed

-What do you mean?

-My, aren't you a slow one?

18
-It means, we need you alive a while longer
-We're the leaders of the Lundi Faction, Monsieur Shein** Belmonde de Lundi
(我らがランディ党の党主シェイン・ベルモンド・ドゥ・ランディ様)

t/n - new to me. I'm missing something here. And why a political Party? ...help.

**Also - what is Shein? Ciene? anyone know french names?

19
-T-the wall--!! Who let you in here!?

-The Lundi Faction...?

-To get right to the point
-Belmonde,

-The time has come for you to join the outside world!
white: His destiny takes another unexpected turn!

the 12th act/end
next time: Belmonde finally meets the outside world!

-END-

FINALLY OUT OF THE BASEMENT! W00t!!
I was getting sick of those stones and see-through bars.
