Vagabond 217

Chapter 217 here we go. These translations are for KO-Scans ONLY. Please do NOT use these to scanlate. Someone did use them last time despite my wishes. So if it happens again this is the last public translation I post before the scanlation is released. It sucks, but that's just how things go.

I've given up "that future"...!!

いけるっ
He can do it.

圧しているのは伝七郎の方
Denshichiro is on the offensive.

今日の武蔵に精彩なし・・・!!
Musashi doesn't seem as lively today...!!

本当にそうか?
Do you really think so?

少なくとも俺には
I, for one,

奴の底がまったく見えておらん
cannot see that.

Page 03
恥ずかしながら
It's embarassing to admit,

震えが止まってくれぬわ
but I can't stop trembling.

どうあれ信じるのみ
All I can do now is believe.

そう決めたのだ
That was what I decided to do.

信じている
I believe.

我が当主伝七郎先生を信じるのみ
I have nothing left but to believe in Master Denshichiro.

But, Musashi,

それが叶わぬ気はしている・・・
I feel that won't be enough...

Page 05
悔しいっ・・・!!
It's so painful...!!

剣の家に生まれ
I was born into a family of the sword.

研鑽を積み辿り着いた現在地自負はあるんだが
So I studied and studied, and got a little conceited with where I'd struggled to in my ability.
I've bragged about my current abilities, which I attained through much study, but,

だからこそ、わかることがある、武蔵・・・
Because of that, I know one thing, Musashi...

Page 06
貴様ははるかな先へ行った・・・!!
You've gone so far ahead...!!

そしてもうその差が縮まることはないと・・・!!
And that difference between us hasn't shrunk a bit...!!

捨てたっ
I've thrown it all away.

勝つことも
Winning.

〝その先〟も
Even my future.

たった今から俺がここにいる目的は
I am only here now for one reason.

勝負に勝つことではない
And it isn't to win.

武蔵っ
Musashi.

ただ貴様の命をここで終わらせることのみ
I am only here to end your life, you bastard!

そのためだけの命でいい
That's all my life is for.
