| Adeleit's path: |
Huh?
The third story and my love... or rather, this is what I became completed fixated on. It's nothing, it's just that I've been unable to introduce her. In truth, she was supposed to be introduced in the first story... At that time she had an elder brother and a butler but. While changing the name numerous times at some point they disappeared (laughs). The time when they can be introduced has finally come... just when I thought that, then there was no time. I was a bit sad about that. (laughs)
There's a character that hasn't been released for some time now since story 3. That's Shouka. How strange, she was supposed to be a sub-character but... It's all due to how things are going on the pages. Re- realistically... With that excuse, Shouka in maid's clothing.
I'm not happy.

| Kotobuki: |
The Wilson household...
This is the place that put up the servant recruitment notice
Recruitment...
That means we won't be sent away at the gate... |
|
*zatsu* (step) |
| Kotobuki: |
Alright
Come and get me!! |
| Raimon: |
It's not a fight so calm down Kotobuki. |
| Kotobuki: |
I can't not put a lot of power into this, a chance has finally come my way afterall.
We've got to hurry, otherwise someone may get there first... |
| Raimon: |
Ah
No worries
I tore down the notice
We shouldn't have any competition where we're headed. |
| Paper: |
Urgent Servants
Male or female
Experience preferred
20-40 yrs old |
| Kotobuki: |
Raimon...
You probably shouldn't have done that... |
|
22nd century Earth
Many wars
Have caused the ground to wither
|
|
Civilisation's conveniences are controlled by the militia, government and high society
While the common people live in poverty and crime upon the devastated earth.
I survived by living as a thief during this time as well but |
| Raimon: |
You'll trip |
| Kotobuki: |
Wow |
|
But that was before
Now I'm seeking employment and have continued wandering from town to town. |
|
*kon kon* knock knock |
| Maid: |
Excuse me. A person seeking the servant's position has arrived |
|
The time's finally come to reap the benefit of all those troubles--! |
|
*goku* gulp
*GATCHA* (opens door) |
| Kotobuki: |
But |
| Old man: |
Uheheh (suspicious laugh) |
| Kotobuki: |
what if it's someone like this |
|
*kata* |
| Adaleit: |
Welcome
I'm Adaleit Wilson |
| Kotobuki: |
Huh?
|
|
*peko* nods |
| Adaleit: |
I'm the only daughter of the Wilson household.
I'll be conducting the interview in place of my deceased father. |
| Kotobuki: |
You're
so cute-- |
| Adaleit: |
Hmph
You won't gain anything for stating that truth. |
| Kotobuki: |
Huh? |
| Raimon: |
That's right, Kotobuki
Once you're past 20, you're lumped as just another person like everyone else. |
| Kotobuki: |
Hmm? |
| Arrow: |
Didn't get it |
|
*PIKI* (stiffens) |
| Adaleit: |
...what's that?
Your companion!? |
| Kotobuki: |
Aa
Yeah |
|
Despite how he looks, this is a former elite member of the militia, was a young commander of a military company and a distinguished man... supposedly
He chased after me when I was still a thief albeit unenthusiastically
|
|
But four and a half months ago, he quit the supervisory and militia
His reason was... |
|
To be able to forget about being militia and thief and to always be together |
| Author's Aside: |
The two of them when they were still thief and militia |
|
Since then, we've made odd travel companions |
| Adaleit: |
Is he your lover?
*zubari* asks directly |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh
No umm
How to put it |
|
I still can't get used to the sound of that. |
| Raimon: |
It's not like that at all
With anything permitted in body and soul, we're husband and wife... |
|
*GUKI* |
| Kotobuki: |
In any case!! |
| Adaleit: |
What |
| Kotobuki: |
I'm nimble |
|
*pyun* zoom |
| Kotobuki: |
And I'm strong!! |
|
*funu-* ungh |
| Kotobuki: |
I can even pick locks!!
Please employ me!!
This sort of thing takes 3 seconds |
| Adaleit: |
Wouldn't it be better for you to be a thief?
I'm recruiting servants you know |
|
*katcha* click
*pi-n* flips open |
| Kotobuki: |
P-
People often say that but I'm not that way!!
Absolutely not!! |
| Raimon: |
Okay, say no more.
'Cause you're a lousy liar |
| Mother: |
Things sound very lively
|
| Mother: |
A new servant? |
| Adaleit: |
Mother...
This is my mother
And this is the scientist Mr. Kamihara |
| Kamihara: |
...Hi
That's right, I brought you another gift today
When you push it, it talks |
| Adaleit: |
My
Thank you |
| Doll: |
That too is life |
| Mother: |
Mr Kamihara made that as well. Isn't it wonderful?
Now, we're having him make a "Tsubasa" detector. Naturally with my support
When it's completed we can find "Tsubasa" and get lots of money |
| Adaleit: |
Mother!!
Please stop speaking of such a scandalous topic |
| Doll: |
That too is life |
| Mother: |
Hmm? Why not? "Tsubasa" really does exist afterall |
| Adaleit: |
It's not that |
| Kotobuki: |
She said a detector...
Is it possible? |
| Raimon: |
It's a simple naming... |
|
"Tsubasa" is a legend of our time
|
|
In the distant past, "Tsubasa" is said to have granted all the wishes of the peoples
It's appearance and identity are mysteries but
Even now, it lies asleep somewhere on this earth
And it's said that if you can obtain it, any wish can be realised... |
|
*jiro*
*jiro* stare
*nyari* (smirk) |
| Kotobuki: |
Uu!?
What's with this guy... |
| Kamihara: |
Well, I'll take my leave then Ma'am...
I'll return again to report any developments |
| Mother: |
Ehh!!
Then I'll see Mr. Kamihara out |
| Adaleit: |
Please watch your step... |
|
*GASHAN* crash |
| Doll: |
That too is life |
| Mother: |
My my |
|
*Goro* roll |
| Mother: |
Oh my
I bumped into it |
|
*patan* |
| Adaleit: |
......... |
|
*BUCHI* snaps
*BIKU* jumps |
| Doll: |
That to is... |
| Adaleit: |
Aa she gets on my nerves
|
| Adaleit: |
What about "Tsubasa"; it's obviously nothing more than a myth
Supporting a fraud like that...... |
|
*poi* toss |
|
It seems like
Maybe this family doesn't get along... |
| Adaleit: |
Since that woman's so useless
I'll decide about the appointment |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh? |
| Adaleit: |
It seems like no one else is coming, so it can't be helped. |
| Kotobuki: |
............!! |
|
Y.........!! |
| Raimon: |
Yay!! |
| Adaleit: |
I didn't say a single word about hiring you!! |
| Author's Note 5: |
I moved.
To Chiba's Funabashi City so it's not that far from my family, but... People often say that you can take things easier when you live on your own, but things were pretty easy when I was living at home too so... there was no change from then. Instead, bothersome things have increased so it's rather annoying.
Add to that that I don't have a habit of decorating my room, things are really empty. While I do have weekly flowers out, Mom's the one who'd bought them (laughs).
As for location, there's nothing really here (around the station).
A short while ago, two friends who're also my assistants came over but, one of them, when they phoned from the station, the first thing she said was:
There's nothing here is there
Arrow: Extremely uncertain
Takaya: Hey
It's to the point of having something like that said. But, the sky's so vast, it's very quiet and it's a peaceful area. There are also edible frogs...
|
| Maid: |
Well Kotobuki, we'll be counting on you from tomorrow |
| Kotobuki: |
'kay
I'll do anything!! |
| Maid: |
Raimon-san...
can do whatever he pleases but... |
| Raimon: |
'kay |
| Maid: |
Man
Man
Handsome
Handsome |
| Maid: |
All the old people have quit so Ady's really frantic looking for new servants. |
| Maid2: |
Right right
Ever since the master of the house, who was an executive in a textiles corporation, passed away in a car accident half a year ago
it seems like the Wilson household's going down more and more
Our salary keeps getting lower and lower too |
| Kotobuki: |
Aa......
In her dead father's place... |
| Maid: |
The Lady is really spacey and has no concept of everyday living matters |
| Maid: |
Did you here!?
She said a "Tsubasa" detector
That scientist is also fishy but not as much as "Tsubasa." Do you think she'll find it!? |
| Kotobuki: |
B-
But Adaleit seems to be pretty aware |
| Maid: |
Aware!? That's what you call impertinent. She's an 11 year old kid. |
| Maid: |
She's not child-like. She's not cute at all.
|
| Maid: |
Come tomorrow you'll understand all too well.
Kya~ |
| Arrow: |
Had gone to the room that was given to him. |
| Kotobuki: |
......... |
|
*GUI* (yank) |
| Kotobuki: |
!!
What're you doing!!
All of a sudden |
|
*uryaa* (shove) |
| Raimon: |
Well, it seemed like you were a little down so |
| Kotobuki: |
As if that were possible. My long desired...
My long desired employment has finally come
Not to mention complete with a private room and three meals; it's a dream placement!!
So I'll work really hard here and finally return the money I owe you!! |
| Arrow: |
She's been keeping track of meal and other expenses and putting herself in debt up until now |
| Raimon: |
I told you, you don't have to return that... |
| Kotobuki: |
As if I could accept that!!
I don't know what reason you gave in order to get a job too but |
| Raimon: |
Because I wanted to be with you
It's obvious isn't it
|
| Kotobuki: |
I shouldn't have asked... |
|
*MUKU* |
| Raimon: |
But it's good isn't it.
Finding a job
Are you happy? |
| Kotobuki: |
...... |
|
*SUKU* (stands) |
| Kotobuki: |
I'm going to bed!!
To be ready for tomorrow!! |
|
*pon* *pon* (pat pat) |
| Raimon: |
Let's sleep. Let's sleep. |
|
*BATAN* (slam) |
| Raimon: |
I thought she'd get caught up in the mood... |
|
I've always felt it but...
Raimon's too soft on me!! |
| Kotobuki: |
I get that sort of feeling!! |
|
It's not good. I want to become someone who's worthy of being with and can protect Raimon!!
And yet it feels like he's the one always protecting me
That's right. Even last time, when I got my first paycheque
|
|
I didn't manage to spend even a penny on him |
| Raimon: |
I'll buy this for you for your new outfit |
| Kotobuki: |
I'll buy it myself!! |
| Author's Aside: |
You can also say she was completely taken in |
|
But...
I too want to do something for him; want to give him something.
The money that I earn from working
For now, I want to use it on him
I want to make him happy |
| Kotobuki: |
That's it!! |
|
Even the debt, if it's something other than money, maybe he'll accept it!!
That right, a present!! That's it!!
I'm pretty sharp!!
Alriiiight
I'll just casually ask him what he wants!! |
| Kotobuki: |
And for that purpose I'm gonna do my best tomorrow!! |
| Arrow: |
Shoes...
|
| Father: |
...It's a problem
Especially recently, there's been a lot of poor quality silk
And some companies try to hide that, you see?
That's right, next month
There's a company party
Why don't you attend it with me in a new dress |
| Adaleit: |
Really!?
I'm so happy!!
Let's have Mom make it |
| Mother: |
Ehh!?
I'm really not good at that sort of thing.
It doesn't matter how much time I spend on it, it'll never get finished |
| Father: |
That's true
You are clumsy afterall |
| Maid: |
Ma'am!!
Miss Ady!! The master's been in an accident!!
|
|
The cliff collapsed and...
I wonder if the Wilsons will be okay with the wife on her own... |
| Adaleit: |
Mother!!
Just what is this expense!!
What did you spend it on!! |
| Mother: |
On the scientist Kamihara. If he completes his "Tsubasa" detector, we won't have to worry about money. |
| Servant: |
I'm sorry, after today, I will no longer be working here |
| Notice: |
Urgent. Servants |
| Adaleit: |
Mother
If you continue supporting him any further, we'll be in trouble. |
| Mother: |
No worries
No worries |
|
*DON* (WHAM)
|
| Kotobuki: |
D-
Don't look at me so much |
|
*JI~~~~~* (stare~~~) |
| Kotobuki: |
No doubt it's strange!! |
| Raimon: |
Cute |
|
*HISHI* (HUG) |
| Raimon: |
You're so cute
That outfit's rather inviting isn't it |
| Kotobuki: |
*UGA--*
What's that supposed to mean
It's just a uniform!! |
| Maid: |
Hey, hey. It's time to get to work
Raimon, if you can go to the far... |
|
Aa!!
|
| Kotobuki: |
Um hey, Raimon |
| Raimon: |
Hm? |
| Kotobuki: |
Um, how should I put this, um...
Raimon, is there for example some...
Something that you... like? |
| Raimon: |
Kotobuki |
| Kotobuki: |
Not like that
A thing, a thing!!
You know, something that you think you want |
| Raimon: |
I want Kotobuki
In a number of meanings |
| Kotobuki: |
Not that!! |
|
*BAKI* (snap) |
| Kotobuki: |
I don't mean like that!! |
|
*TOUAH-* |
| Raimon: |
......... |
|
*kusu* (chuckles) |
|
Sheesh! Talk about a difficult guy!!
Although I'd sort of expected that |
| Kotobuki: |
If it comes to this, then I guess I'll have to find something myself... |
|
*pata pata pata* (dusts) |
| Kotobuki: |
Just what... |
|
*fuki fuki fuki* (wipe wipe wipe) |
| Kotobuki: |
......
|
|
Even so |
| Kotobuki: |
This is fun...
The feeling of doing work |
| Adaleit: |
Mother |
|
*kon kon* (knock knock) |
| Adaleit: |
Mothe... |
|
*Kii...* (door squeaks open) |
| Mother: |
Kyaaa
NO!! |
|
*BASA* |
| Mother: |
Don't come in. Get out!!
Hurry and close it!! |
| Adaleit: |
...if you think that, then I wish you'd either answer or lock the door |
| Mother: |
Yes, you're right
And?
Did you want something? |
| Adaleit: |
There's a letter from father's company |
| Mother: |
My
Umm |
|
*mota mota* |
| Mother: |
Erm |
|
*BIRI* rip |
| Mother: |
My |
| Adaleit: |
Aa
Never mind. Please allow me
|
| Adaleit: |
It's an invitation to the President's 60th birthday celebration |
| Mother: |
My. That's wonderful. |
| Adaleit: |
What are you talking about? Right now we need to refrain from such lavish activities
You should just send words of congratulations |
| Mother: |
Saying? |
| Adaleit: |
Congratulations on your 60th birthday.
Our sincerest wishes in joyfully seeing your 70th, 77th, and 88th.
Unfortunately, we will be unable to offer our compliments in person...
Something along those lines |
| Mother: |
Eh? |
| Adaleit: |
...I'll send it out
By the way, about supporting Kamihara... |
| Mother: |
That again? No, I won't stop.
We'll definitely succeed
Not to mention |
| Author's Note 6: |
And after saying that, I got a prank phone call. What am I calling peaceful?
Assistant: Calm down Takaya
Takaya: Awawawawa
Is it because they're lonely or because they enjoy it. Whichever, it's not pleasant. Unforgivable!! Although since then, there've been no more such calls...
For some reason things're getting rather dark so let's change the subject! Soon, a computer will be joining my home. Yay. I gave in and bought one. It's painful on the pocket book, oy! (laughs) I hope it comes soon.
I'm looking forward to having lots of fun with it. I've got lots of plans in the making right now and am really happy. I get the feeling it might turn into a worldly possession but...
What should I name it...
Don't name it, you.
|
| Mother: |
Do we have any other recourse? |
| Adaleit: |
Well...
......
...... |
| Mother: |
Well
Please take care of the reply |
|
*PATAN* |
| Kotobuki: |
............!! |
| Adaleit: |
KYAAAA |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh!? |
| Adaleit: |
Just what are you doing in a place like that!? |
| Kotobuki: |
Aa
Sorry |
|
*suta* |
| Adaleit: |
Kyaaaa
That's dangerous!!
Y- Y-
You don't need to go so far as clean places like that. Sheesh |
| Kotobuki: |
......
|
| Kotobuki: |
Ady...
Do you hate your mother? |
| Adaleit: |
You were watching?
She's the one who hates me.
Proof of that can be seen in that she won't let me in her room.
It doesn't really matter but all I want is
For her to stay quiet and not do anything excessive.
I don't expect anything else from her.
Up until now, and from here on
I'm not a child.
What about parties.
They're just noisy. I hate parties. |
|
She's only 11 and she's so composed.
But her expression just now
Seemed... |
| Maid: |
Now then-
Let's eat, let's eat. |
| Kotobuki: |
...... |
| Maid: |
Kotobuki? Aren't you going to eat?
|
|
Omelet |
| Kotobuki: |
Daaa!!
I really like them
I love them~!! |
|
*pan*
*gatcha* |
| Maid: |
Aa.
Mr. Shiragi
Sit
Sit |
| Raimon: |
Hey
How was work? |
| Kotobuki: |
It's fun
There's so much to do
Not to mention dinner's my favourite: omelet. |
| Raimon: |
I see |
|
*kyu* |
| Kotobuki: |
...Y'know
Wearing a bandana with that outfit is weird? |
| Raimon: |
Really?
But I feel more comfortable this way |
| Author: |
But, can you really call this a bandana?
Who knows... |
| Maid: |
Kya--
If you take it off, you don't perhaps change personality or become violent do you? |
| Raimon: |
Yeah
That's right |
| Kotobuki: |
Yeah right
Ha (inhales sharply)
That's it!! |
|
*sa*
*BAN* |
| Maid: |
KYAAAAAA
|
| Kotobuki: |
A bandana; a bandana!!
If it's something like that, he wouldn't be able to return it, but it might be good for a first step!! |
| Maid: |
Kotobuki
I don't know why but our meal just about went flying!? |
| Kotobuki: |
Aa
Sorry |
| Raimon: |
......
That's alright as long as Kotobuki's and my meals are safe |
| Kotobuki?: |
Were you alright? |
| Raimon: |
...... |
| Maid: |
Yeah, no problems |
| Raimon: |
...he's such an idiot |
|
*kapo* (pop)
*pata pata* |
| Kotobuki: |
When you have a very clear goal
It makes work more worthwhile.
Hm?
|
| Kotobuki: |
It's Ady... What's she looking at? |
|
Over there
is her mother's room's window... |
| Kotobuki: |
!
...Ady
May not realise what sort of expression she has on her face
From time to time
It's seems a bit difficult to try talking to her right now...
B-
But somehow, somehow...
Aa
That's it |
|
*pi---u* |
| Kotobuki: |
Ady!! |
|
*BIKU* |
| Kotobuki: |
Tea
I brought... you some tea |
|
*ha ha ha hii* (pants) |
| Adaleit: |
......I didn't ask for it |
| Kotobuki: |
Yeah... I just did it on my own...
Hang on a moment, that all out dash just now was...
Pretty tough |
|
*ha hi zei*
|
|
*kusu* |
| Adaleit: |
Strange person. I guess it can't be helped, I'll drink it
Did you steep this properly!? The scent's dead and it's murky
Not to mention I like assam!! |
| Kotobuki: |
Okay... |
| Mother: |
Wait |
| Kotobuki: |
Hm? |
|
Aa
Raimon and...
(Ady's) mother? |
| Mother: |
...And so
You were wearing a bandana right
So I'll give it to you; it's a present |
| Kotobuki: |
Wha |
| Raimon: |
...I don't want it
Getting that sort of thing doesn't make me happy
|
| Kotobuki: |
Hang on---!! |
| Adaleit: |
...what's wrong? |
| Kotobuki: |
...That's what I'd
Been planning... as a present |
|
Doesn't make me happy |
| Adaleit: |
...The two of you are lovers right?
Even if you did nothing, you'd still make him happy right?
If so, isn't that enough?
|
| Adaleit: |
Just what's a present; what...
I've never heard those sorts of words
A dress even... |
|
It's too bad wasn't it
That she couldn't make a dress for you...
That's alright. This one you bought me is much nicer
Ahaha...
That's cute dress
Did your mom make it
Mom made it for me
Isn't it wonderful? |
| Adaleit: |
~~~!!
|
| Adaleit: |
KYAAAA!! |
| Kotobuki: |
Ady!? |
|
*BATAN* |
| Adaleit: |
What...
The natural quartz crystal that is the Wilson family treasure is gone......!! |
| Kotobuki: |
Crystal? |
| Adaleit: |
It'd been imbedded in the ceiling
Why.....? Where did it go...!?
Kamihara......!! |
| Kotobuki: |
? |
| Adaleit: |
That's right. No doubt it's him
He seemed to take an interest in it from before
This is unforgivable... |
| Kotobuki: |
Wait. Proof... |
| Adaleit: |
Proof'll come out later
I absolutely will not forgive him!!
|
| Kotobuki: |
Ady, I said wait. Calm down! |
| Adaleit: |
I am calm!! |
| Kotobuki: |
Well, then let me come too!! |
|
I can't just leave her |
| Kotobuki: |
No doubt I can help!! |
| Adaleit: |
......This has nothing to do with you. |
|
I may be meddling but |
| Kotobuki: |
But I want to go!! |
| Adaleit: |
Do
whatever you like |
| Kotobuki: |
...This
is Kamihara's home? It seems rather fishy... |
| Adaleit: |
That why I say he's suspicious
|
| Adaleit: |
But I feel better. I was a bit worried that that strange guy would follow us. |
| Kotobuki: |
...That's because I didn't tell him. |
|
Somehow...
Looking at his face... |
| Author's Aside: |
Image of her avoiding him |
| Arrow: |
Not doing any work |
|
If he'll still be really happy even if I did nothing
Is it really okay to leave it at that?
What if it ends up only being a bother or if it ends up failing?
Is it okay to be spoiled by him?
But...... |
| Kotobuki: |
What's it feel like to be spoiled anyways...? |
| Adaleit: |
Now then
Let's go |
|
*DON*
*BYUN* |
| Kotobuki: |
Whoa
An expanding ladder!!
I really wanted one of these when I was still a thief...
But it was so expensive...
Note: electrical
|
|
*SUTA* |
| Kotbuki: |
This is.........
I'm not sure... |
| Adaleit: |
The crystal
Where's the crystal!? |
|
*pi pi-* |
| Robot: |
KYAAAA
Intruders--!! |
| K&A: |
!? |
|
*BIKUU* |
| Kotobuki: |
Wh- what!? |
| Robot: |
KYAA
KYAA |
| Adaleit: |
Wait. It's a robot!! |
|
*shu* |
| ?: |
What
What happened!? |
| Kamihara: |
---...!
My my...
|
| Adaleit: |
Kamihara...
You're the one who took the crystal, aren't you!! |
| Kamihara: |
You figured it out? |
| Adaleit: |
I was right!! |
| Kotobuki: |
...At least try to feign a little innocence...... |
| Kamihara: |
I absolutely needed it for this "Tsubasa" detector |
| Arrow: |
This |
| Kamihara: |
The fine index of refraction of SiO2......
Quartz crystal is especially well suited
Not to mention this is natural which is especially rare in this age. It won't hurt to let me use it for awhile. |
| Adaleit: |
What's with the stuck-up attitude after stealing it
Hurry up and give it back!! |
| Kamihara: |
Most unfortunate...
This is going to be the greatest invention of the century.........
*HA* (sighs) |
| Raimon: |
That's incredible
And how does it operate?
|
| Raimon: |
This so called great invention |
| Cat: |
Kicked around... |
| Kotobuki: |
Rai......... |
| Adaleit: |
You... followed us!? |
| Robot: |
Kyaaaa
An intruder |
| Raimon: |
I saw you leaving so
I brought you lunch |
|
*suta* |
| Robot: |
Kyaa Kyaa a Kyaa Kyaa
Kya Kyaa Ky a Kyaa Ky
Kyaa Kyaa |
| Raimon: |
Noisy |
|
*DOGO* |
| Robot: |
*An* |
| Kamihara: |
Aaa!!
Remi-chan!! |
| K&A: |
Remi-chan!?
|
| Kamihara: |
Remi~ |
| Raimon: |
I've heard the name Kamihara before
It seems he got in trouble from the militia for making some sort of useless weapon
No matter where idiots go, they're still idiots |
| Adaleit: |
Why... do you know that sort of thing; that he'd gotten into trouble with the militia... |
| Raimon: |
Because I'm a genius |
| Adaleit: |
What's that supposed to mean... |
| Kotobuki: |
...... |
| Raimon: |
But well, as long as Kotobuki's not harmed, I have no interest in what you do.
From the way of things, it seems they eventually stopped going to him. |
| Kamihara: |
HAHA
How foolish. You don't even have any proof that that's the truth. I'm a good scientist. |
| Raimon: |
If we try out your so-called detector, we'll know. |
| Kamihara: |
Hmph
That's too bad, I'm the only one who can operate... |
|
*kata kata kata* |
| Kamihara: |
and
How is it you can operate it. I'm the only one who knows the password... |
|
*kata kata kata* |
| Raimon: |
Because I'm a genius
|

*BARI*

*BO---* |
| Author's Note: |
Took out a chunk of the mountain |
| ?: |
.........
Kyaaaaa |
| Raimon: |
It should be alright. There are no homes in that area. |
| Adaleit: |
It-
It's just a weapon!!
You tricked us!! |
| Kamihara: |
Dammit
It's your fault for being gullible!!
Just who'd listen to what that woman says!!
More than "Tsubasa", my own talent is more important to me and I needed the money
It doesn't really matter now does it, afterall you hate your mother right?
You should just abandon that sort of constantly deceived woman
Not to mention she's pretty useless as a mother |
| Kotobuki: |
You |
| Adaleit: |
That's right. That woman is useless as a mother
|
| Adaleit: |
She doesn't know how to play with children or change diapers,
She was raised as a rich girl, is foolish and clumsy
She can't even make a single dress... |
|
Ever since then, I haven't attended any parties; I was waiting
I kept on and kept on waiting
For the day when I could smile like that |
| Adaleit: |
But... I'm tired of waiting
I no longer expect anything from her...... |
|
Ady
In truth,
You've been suppressing and hiding that you're a child...?
Afterall, you always
Have a "please look at me" expression on your face |
|
*TA* |
| Kotobuki: |
Wait Kamihara
|
|
*FU* |
| ?: |
!! |
|
*GOIIIN* |
| Kotobuki: |
Ow |
| ?: |
Ehh.........!?
There are......
Two Kotobuki's...!? |
| Kotobuki: |
Unn |
|
*TA TA TA* |
| Adaleit: |
Are you Kotobuki...? |
| Kotobuki: |
Ow...... |
| Kotobuki: |
I was so scared
|
|
Eh?
Eh!?
Why am I......!? |
| Kotobuki: |
You have to take proper care of me |
| Kotobuki: |
O--y
I'm over here |
| Kotobuki: |
If you love me, then show it in your manner
You're happy if I'm here right? |
| Kotobuki: |
!
Wrong!! |
|
*buru buru buru* |
|
What is that girl saying!? Give me a break!!
What's it feel like to be spoiled? |
|
*DAN* |
| Kotobuki: |
Isn't that right? |
|
Hey, wait!! |
|
*Buru buru buru buru* |
|
This is wrong!!
Completely wrong!!
This isn't like me at all
|
|
It's not me!! |
|
*GO*
*GAGON*
*BON*
BI---
*muku* (gets up) |
| Kamihara: |
Wha!?
Aa
The new robot that was under development!! |
|
*BI--* |
| Koto-robo: |
That hurt quite a bit...... |
| Adaleit: |
You...
Beating it up. What if you'd made a mistake |
| Raimon: |
But it doesn't resemble her in the slightest
There are limits to being ridiculed. |
| Adaleit: |
But why Kotobuki...
Although we've figured out he's a pervert... |
| Kamihara: |
Because the face is to my liking |
| Raimon: |
I see |
|
*GON* |
| Box: |
Kamihara |
| Kamihara: |
Like I said
Just what are you doing!!
|
|
*BYU* |
| Raimon: |
Naturally anyone who does anything to Kotobuki will be punished accordingly
Didn't you know that? |
| Kamihara: |
I didn't know... |
| Raimon: |
That's too bad |
| Kamihara: |
UAAAAAAAAAAA
Kamihara |
|
*GO*
BI-
GIN GAN GON
BAKI |
| Adaleit: |
No room for sympathy eh... |
| Kotobuki: |
.........
It doesn't matter if you fail... |
| Adaleit: |
Eh? |
| Kotobuki: |
It's still only the first time
Not to mention I want to do something myself
I want to make him happy
And if he smiles
No doubt, it'll make me so extremely happy
|
|
The look of happiness at that time
Drives me on once again. |
| Kotobuki: |
Raimon...!! |
| Kamihara: |
Wait!!
If you continue with that violence...
I don't know what will happen to the crystal!!
So stop it!! |
| Raimon: |
Why don't you do whatever you like?
It's not like it's mine |
| Circle: |
Kotobuki |
| Adaleit: |
Hang on!!
Don't answer so lightly about something that isn't even yours |
| Kamihara: |
And one more thing
I've set a remote controlled explosive at the Wilson mansion
If I press this, the entire mansion will be destroyed within 30 seconds!!
Always be prepared for anything!! |
| Adaleit: |
Wha |
| Raimon: |
Why don't you push it?
It's not like it's my home |
| Adaleit: |
Don't answer so lightly--!! |
| Kamihara: |
And so I'll have you allow me to take my leave |
|
*SHU* |
| Adaleit: |
Aa......... |
|
*SU*
|
|
*PASHI* |
| Kotobuki: |
GIVE IT UP
AND GIVE IT BACK ALREADY!! |
| Kamihara: |
Yikes!?
A woman taking such an indecent pose!! |
| Adaleit: |
Look out!!
Hey, aren't you going to stop her!? |
| Raimon: |
Even if I tried, she wouldn't stop.
She's used to taking action on her own
...Seeing her do this sort of thing, or having fun working
That's enough for me, you know. |
| Adaleit: |
By that...
It sounds like you know everything there is about her
|
| Kamihara: |
Hey
Give that back |
| Kotobuki: |
What're you talking about. This is very important to Ady |
| Kamihara: |
Why you......
Persis-... |
|
*SU* |
| Adaleit: |
Kotobuki... |
|
*GAN* |
| Adaleit: |
Look out Kotobuki!! |
|
*GAN* |
|
To take action
|
|
On one's own |
| Adaleit: |
Kotobuki, are you alright!? |
| Kamihara: |
Why you...
That's it |
|
*GU* |
| K&A: |
Aa----!! |
| Raimon: |
Come on Kotobuki
We'll leave this way |
| Kamihara: |
Even if you leave now, you won't be able to save the Wilson home
You only have 30 seconds afterall |
| Raimon: |
But
I removed that explosive device |
|
*poi* (toss)
|
|
*DOOO...N* |
| Town folk: |
?
? |
| Raimon: |
You've just got to have this sort of thing at least once |
| Kotobuki: |
Just when did you remove that... |
| Adaleit: |
............I |
| Kotobuki: |
Hm? |
| Adaleit: |
For starters, I'll say what I've wanted to say
Let's live
Together and combine our strength............
And if that fails, I'll rethink what I want to do
For example bringing her some tea
...Thank you
For that time
And now too |
| Kotobuki: |
Is that to me? |
| Adaleit: |
That's right!!
Don't you realise it yourself!?
|
| Adaleit: |
Just you watch mother
When necessary, I'll do whatever needs to be done too |
| Mother: |
*HA* (sigh)
It's no good afterall... |
| Adaleit: |
Mother!! |
|
*ZU
*BATA-N* |
| Mother: |
KYAA
Why do you come in!?
You can't-!! |
| Kotobuki: |
Ady |
| Adaleit: |
It's alright
I won't listen to those sorts of words anymore
Alright
Focus your brains and listen carefully
I......... |
| Kotobuki: |
The
Power of suddenly taking the offensive...
|
| Adaleit: |
Am............
Mother...? |
| Mother: |
Is it strange!?
But as it is, it looks much better now
It's much better than the others up til now!!
Aaa that's why I didn't want you coming in here~~~
I didn't want you to see this sort of thing~~~ |
| Adaleit: |
... |
| Mother: |
I made a lot of mistakes cutting
It was so wasteful that I tried to give it to him but he refused |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh!? |
| Raimon: |
As if I'd want that sort of thing |
| Kotobuki: |
I was completely misled!!
That too is life......
|
|
*SHU* |
| Kotobuki: |
Ady? |
|
*poi* |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh |
|
*poi* |
| Kotobuki: |
Eh!? |
| Adaleit: |
............ |
| Mother: |
Aaa
The size is completely wrong
I'd thought that you were growing little by little and tried making allowances for it |
| Adaleit: |
Before that, the left and right sleeves are different lengths
Did you use a calculator?
Dad's is broken, so it's no good |
| Mother: |
~~~~ I didn't know that
You really are so composed, Ady
Even now, you've been staying up this late studying right?
You'll become indecisive being so composed.
But at least leave money matters to me.
In these sorts of times, as mother, I'll do my best!!
|
| Raimon: |
Things seem to have gotten a bit off track |
| Kotobuki: |
... |
| Mother: |
But... it seems the dress is a lost cause.... |
|
*GAKU* |
| Adaleit: |
That's okay
I've always wanted something like this
Always...
I've always been
Wanting this... |
|
The look of happiness at that time
|
|
Will urge me on once again |
| Kotobuki?: |
Kamihara ended up getting caught by the police |
| Mother: |
Eh? I'd been tricked? Oh my~ Then the "tsu |
| Kotobuki?: |
Ady sold the mansion and is living together with her mother |
| Raimon: |
And so
You've lost your job
You were so cute in that uniform too |
| Kotobuki: |
......
But it's alright |
| Adaleit: |
When you settle down somewhere, send me a letter
It's a promise |
| Kotobuki: |
Because I made a friend
And I got my salary!! I'll look for a job again!! |
| Raimon: |
I didn't get paid
Hmm-- Why not?
|
| Kotobuki: |
Raimon......? |
| Raimon: |
Yeah |
| Kotobuki: |
W-
Well, it's not much but......
My salary.........
S- Still it'll cover a meal... I think......
So um... well......
I'll treat you to something with this!!
Tell me what you want to eat!!
Alright! I said it!! |
| Raimon: |
Kotobuki |
| Kotobuki: |
Never mind |
| Raimon: |
Omelet
I want to eat omelet
|
| Kotobuki: |
.........
Alright...!!
Leave it to me!!
But I didn't expect you'd like omelet too
It's one of my favourites too
Hurry
Hurry!!
Eat lots okay |
| Raimon: |
Okay |
| Adaleit: |
Hey Mother
Ever since that day I can't get Kotobuki out of my mind...
What's happened... to me... |
| Mother: |
My
It's love, Ady. Love.
You've reached that age now, Ady |
