{color 5}ボース支部所属の遊撃士、 アネラス・エルフィード――

{color 5}Anelace Elfead was a bracer affiliated with the Bose branch of the Bracer Guild.

《輝く環》の事件での活躍で Ｄ級への昇進を果たした彼女は、 今や若手遊撃士のホープである。

For her achievements during the Liber Ark crisis, she was promoted to D rank, and was now seen as one of the guild's most promising youngsters.

だが、そんな順風満帆の日々に ふと舞い込んで来た１通の手紙……

But the peaceful days that followed were shattered by the sudden arrival of a letter...

物憂げなギルドの午後―― ひとりその白い紙片を見つめる アネラスの姿があった。

A letter she now sat staring at inside the somber afternoon guild.

うーん……

Hmm...

うむむむむ……

Hmm...

なんじゃ、アネラス。 ヘンな声を出しよって。

What's up with you, Anelace?

またアイスの食い過ぎで 腹でも壊したのか？

You haven't made yourself sick by eating too much ice cream again, have you?

{color 0}◆アネラス、ルグランのほうを見る。（首振りパタ）

{color 0}◆Anelace looks over at Lugran.

わわっ！？ その話は内緒ですって。

Y-You were supposed to forget about that!

実は、おじいちゃんから 手紙が届いちゃって……

Anyway, I got a letter from my granddad, you see...

ほう……

Oh, really?

確か、おまえさんの 祖父殿といえば……

Wasn't your grandfather...

うん、すごく有名な 剣術の師範なんです。

Yep, he's a really famous swordsmanship instructor.

もうヨボヨボのくせに、 今でも試合をしたら 私なんか子供扱いですから。

Even now, every time we get the chance to fight, I feel like I'm just being treated like a child. He's an old man now, too!

現役遊撃士を子供扱いとは、 恐ろしいほどの達人じゃな。

Haha. He really must be skilled to be treating an active bracer that way.

……して、祖父殿は何と？

...Anyway, what exactly does he want with you?

え、えーと、それがまた ビックリなんですけど……

W-Well, as surprising as it is...

『カシウスに会いに行け』って そう書いてあるんですよ……

He actually wants me to go and speak to Cassius.

カシウス……？

Cassius?

そりゃ、あのカシウス准将か？

As in Brigadier General Bright?

は、はい……

Y-Yeah...

O-Ouais...

何でもおじいちゃんは カシウスさんの師匠筋に 当たるらしくって……

Apparently Granddad is like a master to Cassius...

１０年前にカシウスさんが 剣を捨てたときにも、 挨拶に来てたそうなんです。

Apparently he even came to see him when he stopped fighting with a sword ten years ago, too.

１０年前といえば ちょうど《百日戦役》……

Ten years ago? So around the time of the Hundred Days War, then.

カシウス殿が退役して 遊撃士になった頃の話か。

Back when Cassius left the army and became a bracer.

カシウスさんが剣を捨てたのが、 よっぽど残念だったみたいで……

Granddad seems to have been really disappointed that Cassius abandoned the path of the sword, too.

軍に復帰したこの機会に 改めてその気持ちを 確かめておきたいそうなんです。

So now that he's returned to the army, Granddad wants to know whether his feelings have changed.

ふーむ、なるほどのう。

Hmm... I see...

まったく意外なところに 意外な縁があるもんじゃわい。

It really is surprising how people can end up knowing one another.

ほ、本当ですねえ……

Y-Yeah, it is...

えー、そんなわけで ルグランじいさん。

Anyway, that said... Umm...

ちょっとお願いが あるんですけど……

I kind of have a favor to ask...

うむ、休暇が欲しいんじゃろう？

You want time off, I assume?

そういう事情があるなら、 好きに取ってくれて構わんぞ。

Well, I certainly don't mind. You've got good cause to have it.

わあ、ホントですか！？

R-Really?!

V-Vraiment ?!

ただし……

But in return...

掲示板に出とる手配魔獣を 残らず片付けてからじゃぞ。

I want you to take care of every single one of the monster extermination requests on the board.

そ、そんなぁ……！？

E-Every single one?!

まだ５件も あるじゃないですか！？

Aren't there like five of them in all at the moment?!

３日前にハラ痛で 病欠したヤツが何を言う。

I don't want to hear any complaints from someone who had to take a day off three days ago because they ate too much ice cream.

しかも、その原因が おまけグッズ欲しさの アイスのバカ食いとは……

Especially considering they were only eating that many because they wanted the bonus goods that came with the things...

あ、あわわっ！！？

A-Aaaaah!

わ、判りましたから、 そのことは言わないで！！

O-Okay, okay, I'll do it! I'll do it! Just stop!

{color 5}――というわけで、おじいちゃん。

{color 5}...Anyway, Granddad.

残念だけど、カシウスさんは やっぱり剣に戻る気はないみたい。

I'm afraid it doesn't look like Cassius has any interest at all in taking up a sword again.

でも、今度のおじいちゃんの手紙で 私も剣の道の奥深さに ちょっと触れることができました。

Still, going to speak to him wasn't all for naught. I feel like I've learned more about swordsmanship myself by doing so.

今まで『速さ』とか『強さ』とか、 そんなことばかり気にしてたけど……

Up until now, I thought it was all about getting stronger, or faster, or things like that...

一番大切なことは 何のために自分は剣を取るのか、 その気持ち――『魂』だったんだね。

But now I've finally realized that what's far more important than either of those things is why you take up your sword -- your soul and your feelings.

何でおじいちゃんに勝てないのか、 今日やっとその理由が判りました。

I feel like now I finally understand why I was never able to defeat you, no matter how many times we fought.

デキの悪い弟子かもしれないけど、 これからも精一杯がんばります。

Of course, I hardly expect this revelation will allow me to suddenly be able to win against you, but hopefully you'll watch over me until I can.

もし、天国にいっちゃっても そこから見守っていてくださいね。

Hopefully when you end up going to heaven, you'll watch over me from there, too.

――っていうお手紙を出したら……

...That was what the letter I sent said, but he wasn't too impressed with it.

おじいちゃんに もの凄く怒られちゃったんです。

He got really angry... I wonder why?

いや、最後の２行はマズイじゃろ。

I'll give you a clue... It's the last two lines...

ふむふむ……

Hmm...

なるほど、なるほど……

Interesting...

Intéressant...

……………………………

...

......

……うーん、まさか そんなことがあったなんて。

Wow, that's a surprise...

おーい、アネラス。

Anelace!

あ、ルグランじいさん。

Oh, Lugran!

なんじゃ。 何か問題でもあったのか？

Is something the matter?

掲示板も見ずに ２階へ行くなり黙り込んで……

It's not like you to walk right up to the second floor without even looking at the board and sit quietly like this.

まさか、アイスの食い過ぎで 腹でも壊したんじゃあるまいな？

You're not feeling sick from eating too much ice cream or something, are you?

そ、そんな…… 子供じゃないんですから。

D-Don't be silly... I'm not a kid anymore, you know.

ほう、よく言うわい。

Could've fooled me!

はて、いったい どこの誰じゃったかのう？

I swear that you were the one who ate three full scoops first thing one morning and later had to go get some stomach medicine from Spence...

朝からアイスを３個も食べて スペンス爺さんの薬の 世話になっとったのは……

Maybe my memory's playing tricks on me?

あわわっ！？

Haha! Aha...ha...

そ、その話は内緒ですって。

L-Let's all pretend that never happened, okay?

大体、それはまだ 私が準遊撃士だった頃の話！

Besides, that was back when I was a junior bracer! That was forever ago!

今は反省して 朝のアイスは１個までって 決めてるんですからっ！

I learned my lesson after that, I swear! Now I never have more than one scoop each morning!

い、いや、そもそも朝から アイスというのはどうかと思うが……

You're not supposed to have ice cream in the morning at all, you know...

……まあいい。

...Well, no matter.

で、さっきから いったい何をしておるんじゃ？

So, what've you been doing up here all this time, anyway?

あ、はい。

Oh, right...

Oh, c'est vrai...

実は今朝、 遠方に住んでいる祖父から 手紙が届いたんですよ。

Well, you see, I got a letter from my pappy who lives a long way away this morning.

ほう……

Really, now?

おまえさんの祖父殿といえば……

He's a swordsman if I recall, isn't he?

ええ、剣術の師範なんです。

Yup. He's an instructor.

《八葉一刀流》の ユン・カーファイといえば、 その道では結構有名なんですよ。

He's real famous among sword practitioners, actually! Yun Ka-fai of the Eight Leaves One Blade school.

ふむ、そうじゃったな。

Ah, yeah. That's the one.

お前さんから聞かされる前から 名前だけは知っておったが……

I was familiar with the name even before meeting you, but I was quite surprised to find out you were his granddaughter.

確か一時期、このリベールにも 住んでおられたんじゃったか？

Didn't he used to live here in Liberl?

あ、はい、よくご存知ですね。

I'm surprised you know about that!

ただ、私も よく覚えていないんです。

I can't say I have any memories of when he was here, though.

何せ、私が生まれる 前後のことらしいので……

It was around when I was born, so how could I?

ふむ…… そんなに前の話じゃったか。

That long ago? I see...

それで、祖父殿は今も 元気にしておられるのか？

So, how's he doing? Well?

ええ、どうやら ピンピンしてるみたいです。

Judging by his letter, yeah. He's doing fine.

最後に会ったのは 一年くらい前ですけど……

I haven't had the chance to meet him in person for about a year now...

もう７０歳のくせして 手合わせをすれば、 私なんか子供扱いでしたし。

Last time we had the chance to spar, I felt like he was totally babying me. Even though he's, like, seventy!

ふぉふぉ、 現役遊撃士を子供扱いとは 恐ろしいほどの達人じゃ。

Haha. He really must be skilled to be treating an active bracer that way.

ふむ……

Hmm...

？　どうかしましたか？

Huh? What's with the sudden serious face?

いやな、アネラス。 これは以前から 思っておったんじゃが……

Oh, it's nothing all that major, but I've been wondering something for a while.

お前さんは、どうして 祖父殿の下へ行かんのじゃ？

Why do you stay here when you could join him?

え……？

Err... Sorry. I'm lost.

... Quoi ?

いや、お前さんが志すという 剣の道とやらについてじゃが……

Well, it's just that you're aiming to improve your swordsmanship, aren't you?

祖父殿の傍でその技を磨くのが 一番の近道という気もしたのでな。

It feels like if you have a grandfather like that, the fastest way to do that would be to go with him and polish your skills at his side.

えっと、それは……

That's... Well...

ああ、いや…… 余計なお世話じゃったか。

I suppose it's not my place to be telling you what may or may not be best for you.

すまんな。 老人の戯言だと思って 聞き流してやってくれ。

Sorry, Anelace. You needn't pay any attention to an old man like me.

ううん、そんなこと……！

No, that's not true at all!

それに全然、余計な お世話とかじゃありません。

I really appreciate your advice, so please don't think it's not your place to give it.

ルグランじいさんの言うことには 確かに心当たりがあるんです。

I can definitely see where you're coming from on this.

ただ、ちょっと 説明が難しいなと思って……

I do have my reasons for being here and all. They're just a little difficult to explain...

ほう……

Oh?

私はこれからも もっともっと剣のことを知りたい…… 剣とは何かって追求したい。

I DO want to learn more about swordsmanship and swords in general...

そのためには、確かに おじいちゃんの下で修行を積むのが 近道だとは思うんです。

...so in that sense, you're right that continuing to train under Pappy would be both the best and fastest course of action.

でも私は剣と同じくらい…… いや、それ以上に遊撃士のことが 知りたいと思ってて……

But that's not all I want to do with my life. I want at least as much, if not more, to know more about what it means to be a bracer.

え～と、だから…… 剣術家として剣を学ぶんじゃなくて 遊撃士として剣を学びたいっていうか……

I guess it's a case of wanting to learn more about swordsmanship as a bracer rather than as a swordsman, if that makes sense.

う～ん…… やっぱりうまく説明できませんね。

Am I even doing a good job of explaining this...?

いや……何となくじゃが 言わんとしてることは分かるぞ。

No, no. I think I see where you're coming from now, actually.

えっと…… それに、おじいちゃんにも 言われたんです。

Besides...

型とか技とか…… 技術的なことに関しては もう全て教えたって。

...Pappy once told me that he'd taught me all of the technical side of swordsmanship--forms, crafts, and that kinda stuff--already.

それを使いこなせるかどうかは あとは私次第だって。

Whether I can master them or not is all down to me now.

そういう意味でも、 おじいちゃんの下で剣を学ぶ 必要はないって思ってるんです。

So in that sense, I feel like there's no specific need for me to train under him nowadays.

えへへ……と言っても 自分がちゃんと前に進めているのか 今も不安だらけなんですけど。

Heehee... Of course, whether I'm really advancing in my swordsmanship now is another issue entirely. I wish I could say for sure I was, but...

ふむ、なるほどのう……

Hmm... I see...

…………………………………

...

......

え、えっと…… ルグランじいさん？

U-Umm... What's with the silent treatment all of a sudden?

い、いや……

O-Oh, it's nothing.

お前さんがあまりに 真剣に語るもんじゃから 感心しておったのじゃよ。

You're just not really one for these kinds of serious discussions, so I was impressed to see you were even capable of them.

も、も～……

H-Hey! I am SO capable!

私にここまで語らせたのは ルグランじいさんじゃないですか。

Besides, you were the one who kind of pushed me into talking about all this stuff first!

ふぉふぉふぉ、 いや、いい話が聞けてよかったぞ。

Hahaha! I'm glad I did, too.

そうそう、それで 肝心の手紙には一体 何と書いてあったんじゃ？

Anyway, getting back to the point. What did the letter even say, anyway?

あ、はい……

Oh, right...

Oh, c'est vrai...

え、えーと、それがまた ビックリなんですけど……

W-Well, as surprising as it is...

『カシウスに会いに行け』って、 そう書いてあったんですよ。

...it says that I should go and see Cassius Bright.

カシウス……？

Cassius...?

そりゃ、あのカシウスのことか？

The one and only?

ええ、そうみたいです。

Yep! That's right.

何でもその昔、おじいちゃん、 王国軍の訓練に特別講師として 招かれたことがあるとかで……

Supposedly, Pappy was invited by the Royal Army to be a guest instructor at some point a long time ago.

その時にカシウスさんのことを 指導したことがあるそうなんです。

That's when he trained Cassius, too.

以来、二人の間には 師弟関係のようなものが 築かれたらしくって……

So ever since, they've had this kinda student- master relationship with one another...

１０年前、剣を置いた時にも カシウスさん、おじいちゃんの所に わざわざ挨拶に行ったそうなんです。

Cassius even went out of his way to go and see him ten years ago when he decided to stop using a sword, too.

１０年前……

Ten years ago?

ちょうどカシウスが軍を退役して 遊撃士になった頃の話じゃな。

That would put that around when he left the army and became a bracer, then.

ふむ、それで……？

What exactly prompted him to tell you to go visit Cassius now, though?

えーと、それで最近おじいちゃん、 カシウスさんが軍に復帰したのを 風の便りで知ったらしくって……

Well, I guess he only just recently found out that Cassius has returned to the army.

『もしかしたら、この機会に {} 再び剣を取る覚悟なのでは』―― そんな風に思ったみたいなんです。

So now he's wondering whether he might take this opportunity to take up the sword again.

ふむ……

Hmm...

それで、お前さんに直接 その辺りの真偽を確かめてくれと 頼んできたわけじゃな。

Ahh, I got'cha. He wants you to go and ask for him?

ええ、そんな感じです。

And let him know what he says, yeah.

なるほど……

I see...

Je vois...

……しかし、意外な所に 意外な縁があるもんじゃのう。

People really do end up connected in the strangest places and the funniest ways.

あはは……本当に。

Ahaha... Tell me about it.

えーと、そんなわけで ルグランじいさん。

Anyway, that being said...

ちょっと お願いがあるんですけど……

...I...kind of have a favor to ask...

うむ、休暇が欲しいんじゃな？

You want time off, I assume?

そういう事情なら一向に構わんぞ。

Well, who am I to say no? You've got good cause to have it.

何なら、カシウスとの面会も 取り計らってやろう。

I can even get in touch with the army and set up a meeting with Cassius if you want.

わあ、ホントですか！？

Really?!

Vraiment ?!

うむ、思う存分あやつの 胸の内を問い質してやるといい。

Really. Go along and get that truth your grandfather wants for him.

ただし……

But in return...

ただし……？

In return...?

今、掲示板に出とる手配魔獣を 全て残らず片付けてからじゃ。

I want you to take care of every single one of the monster extermination requests on the board first.

そ、そんなぁ……！？

E-EVERY single one?!

確かまだ ５件はありましたよね！？

Aren't there, like, five of them right now?!

何、この辺りの魔獣退治など 今のお前さんには軽い仕事じゃろ。

Sure, but the monsters in this area will be no trouble at all for you as you are now.

それにルーアンに 貸し出したグラッツの奴も まだ帰って来ておらんのじゃ。

They'd be less of a problem if Grant were around, but I had to lend him to the guild over in Ruan, and he's still not back.

やるべきことは しっかり、やってもらわんとな。

You're gonna have to pick up the slack here in his place, especially if you want time off.

ううう……は～い。

*sigh* Okaaay...

{color 0}そして３日後――

{color 0}Three days later...

……そうか。 それはいい経験じゃったな。

...Really? It sounds like that was quite the fruitful experience.

はい……

It sure was.

多分おじいちゃん、 こうなる事が分かってて あんな手紙を書いたんだと思います。

I'm guessing this was Pappy's plan all along. He knew exactly what would happen if I went to ask Cassius what I did, and that's why he asked.

前に手紙を出した時、 私ちょっと気弱なことを 書いちゃっていましたから……

I must've sounded a little unsure of myself in the last letter I wrote him...

なるほど…… さすがはカシウスのお師匠じゃな。

I see... Like master, like pupil.

ところで、早速で悪いが 休暇中に溜まっとった依頼を 片付けてもらうぞ。

Incidentally, while I hate to spring this on you before you've even had a chance to settle back in, a lot of work built up while you were away.

お前さんが出張っとる間に 市長からの依頼なども来ていてな。

There's even a request from the mayor, too, so I really need you to get right on it all.

げ……

Ack...

ふぉふぉ…… ちょうど良かったではないか。

Haha... If anything, you should be grateful!

早速、得物に左右されない 稽古が出来るというもんじゃろ？

All this work'll give you a chance to refine your skills with that new mindset of yours, won't it?

あはは…… 確かにそうですね。

Ahaha... That's one way of looking at it, sure.

{color 12}#40W――というわけで、おじいちゃん。

{color 12}#40WSo, Pappy...

{color 12}#40W最初から分かっていたと思うけど やっぱりカシウスさん、 剣の道に戻る気はないみたい。

{color 12}#40WWhile I bet you knew all along, it looks like Cassius has no intentions of taking up the way of the sword ever again.

{color 12}#40Wでも、今度のおじいちゃんの手紙で 改めて自分の剣を見直すことができました。

{color 12}#40WBut thanks to seeing him, I ended up being given a chance to reexamine my own swordsmanship.

{color 12}#40W今まで『速さ』とか『強さ』とか、 そんなことばかり気にしてたけど……

{color 12}#40WUp until now, I thought it was all about getting stronger. Or faster. Things like that.

{color 12}#40W大切なことは 何のために自分は剣を取るのか、 その『想い』――つまり『魂』なんだね。

{color 12}#40WBut now, I've finally realized that what's far more important than either of those things is why you take up your sword in the first place. Your feelings.

{color 12}#40W何でいつも、おじいちゃんに勝てないのか やっとその理由が判った気がします。

{color 12}#40WI feel like now I finally understand why I was never able to defeat you, no matter how many times we fought.

{color 12}#40W出来の悪い弟子かもしれないけど、 これからも精一杯がんばります。 　　　　　　　　　　　　　アネラスより。

{color 12}#40WI might not be the best student in the world, but I'll keep giving my training all I've got. {} Love, Anelace

え、えーと、メイベル市長……

U-Umm... Mayor Maybelle?

もう一度、その…… 依頼内容を伺ってもいいですか？

Can I ask you to go over what you want me to do one more time? Just so I'm not misunderstanding.

コ、コホン……

*cough* W-Well...

ですから、その…… ふ、２人がどういう関係で……

As I said, I would like to investigate...erm... exactly what relationship those two have...

相手の男性がどういう方なのか それを調べて欲しいと言いました。

...as well as what kind of person the gentleman in question is.

えーと、要するに……

So, to put it in simpler terms...

お二人の交際の真偽と 相手の男性の素性調査……

...you want me to check out whether they're dating and do a background check on the man, right?

この２つを頼みたいんですね。

Is that right?

え、ええ、その通りですわ。

Y-Yes... Yes, it is.

な、何か問題でもありまして？

I-Is there something wrong?

……………………………

...

......

えっと……メイベル市長……

Well, kinda...

私たち遊撃士は 確かに素性調査のたぐいも 請け負うことがありますけど……

I mean, we bracers do at times do background checks on people...

それはあくまで 犯罪に関わる場合のみです。

...but that's when we suspect or know for sure they're involved in a crime.

そうでなければ プライバシーの侵害にも 繋がってしまうわけですから。

If they're not, doing so would be an invasion of their privacy, and that doesn't exactly fly with us.

あっ……

Oh...

Oh...

リラさんのお付き合いしている男性が 何か良からぬことを考えている……

Obviously, if you have reason to believe the man Lila appears to be dating is involved in illegal activity, I'd be happy to help...

そんな兆候でもあるんでしょうか？

Is that the case, though?

い、いえ……

N-No...

見た感じ、人が良さそうで 誠実そうな男性でしたけど……

On the contrary, actually. He appears to be a good, honest man.

う、うーん……

I-I see...

J-Je vois...

確かに見た目の印象だけでは 人柄を判断できないとは 思いますけど……

There's obviously going to be the chance that's just a facade and he's not the kind of person he appears to be...

現時点で遊撃士#6R わたしたち#が 動くというのはちょっと……

...but as it stands, I don't see any grounds for the guild to make their move.

そ、そうですか…… 確かにそうですわよね……

That is unfortunate...but I can certainly see where you're coming from.

……分かりました。 わたくし、どうかしてましたわ。

I'm sorry for troubling you with this. I don't know what came over me.

アネラスさん、ごめんなさい。 やはりこの話は無かったことに……

Please, forget this conversation ever happened.

え、えっと……

U-Umm...

Euhhh...

……その。 市長さんはリラさんの恋を 応援してあげたいんですよね？

...Forgive me for asking this, but you're all in favor of them dating, right? You're not trying to break them up or something?

なのにどうして、そこまで心配を？

So why are you so concerned with finding all this out?

………………………………

...

......

貴女もご存じかと思いますが リラは《百日戦役》の時に 両親を失っています。

As I think you're aware, Lila lost her mother and father during the Hundred Days War.

その時の心の傷は…… 多分、今でも消えてはいません。

As far as I can tell, the scars that left on her heart still haven't truly healed, either.

あ……

...

......

……わたくしの知る限り リラにとって、こういうこと自体 初めての経験だと思いますの。

And I believe this is her first foray into romantic relationships, too...

だから余計に…… あの子が傷付くことだけは 絶対に避けたいんです。

I'm just so worried about her getting hurt as a result of this.

相手の方の家柄とか財産とか…… そんなことはどうだっていい。

I'm not the slightest concerned about how noble the man's family is or how much money they have. Nothing superficial like that.

その方がちゃんとリラのことを 幸せにしてあげられるかどうか……

All I want to know is whether he genuinely cares for her well-being and will make her happy.

わたくしはただ…… それだけを見極めたいのです。

That's all that matters to me.

市長さん……

I see where you're coming from...

……ですがいささか 我を失っていたようですわね。

Still, at the end of the day, that doesn't give me the excuse to invade the man's privacy or meddle in their affairs.

リラの事ですから いずれ相手の男性についても わたくしに教えてくれるでしょう。

I'm sure Lila will eventually tell me about what's going on when she feels the time is right.

その時にでも本人から 話を聞くことにいたしますわ。

I can ask her all of my questions then.

いえ…… それには及びません。

...Nah. This is good stuff.

え……

What do you mean?

市長さんのお気持ちは よ～く分かりましたっ！

I COMPLETELY understand where you're coming from here!
