うう、そっか……
So that's what it was...
うう、そっか……
So that's what it was...
最終チェックのときに わたしが気づかなきゃ いけなかったのに……
I can't believe I didn't notice that when I was doing the final checks... This is all my fault...
…………ティータ、 まだここが原因だって 決まったわけじゃないのよ。
We don't know that for sure yet, Tita.
簡単に判断したりしないの。
Let's not jump to conclusions.
反省するのも責任を感じるのも、 原因を突き止めてからにしなさい。
No good comes from blaming yourself or feeling responsible before we know if you even had anything to do with it.
う、うん……
O-Okay...
Euhhh...
でもやっぱり…………
S-Still...
ぐはっ……!?#2S
Gaaah!#2S
な、なんだこのハンマーは……?#2S
Wh-Where the hell did this hammer come from?!#2S
……あ、危ねえな…………#2S
What's wrong with this place...?#2S
あれ、今アガットさんの 声がしなかった?
Huh? That sounded like Agate...
さあ~、気のせいじゃない?
Really? Probably just your imagination.
うーん、でも……
Maybe...
そろそろ約束の時間だよね。
That reminds me! He should be here any minute now.
……わたし、お料理を 温めなおしておかなくっちゃ。
I'd better go and warm up the food!
うおっ……!?#2S
Whoa!#2S
な、なぜ街路から槍が……!?#2S
Why'd a bunch of lances pop outta the ground?!#2S
あー、エリカ……
Umm... Erika...
槍はやりすぎかと 思うんじゃがな……
I think lances may have been overdoing it a tad...
そ、そうですね。 せめて落とし穴くらいで……
At least stick with concealed holes in the ground, won't you?
ぐが…………っ!?#2S
Gaaaaaah!#2S
…………えっと、 アガット君が到着するまで どのくらいかかりそう?
Umm... How long are we looking at before he's able to make it here, might I ask?
彼とはもう少し 腹を割った話がしたいと 思ってるんだけど……
I was hoping to take this chance to have a a man-to-man talk with him.
ふふふ…… それは女神#4Rエイドス#のみぞ知るよ。
Heehee... That, only the Goddess knows.
クク、なかなか 健闘してるみたいね。
Seems like he's putting up a good fight.
……だけど。 だけどよアガット・クロスナー。
But make no mistake, Agate Crosner...
『実験#4R し け ん#』はまだまだこれからよ!#2S
Our testing process has only just begun!#2S
{color 0}Episode『オーバルギア開発計画/後編』 ~Fin~
{color 0}Side Story [Orbal Gear Project Part 2] finished!
{color 5}ティータはクラフト {color 2}『オーバルギア』{color 5}を修得しました。
{color 5}Tita learned the S-Craft {color 2}[Orbal Gear]{color 5}.
ティータ、もういいよ。
You can leave the rest to me now, Tita.
あとはやっておくから、 今日はもう休みなさい。
You must be tired. Go on to bed.
ううん、このくらい いつもやってるから。
I'm fine, honestly. I'm not doing any more than I usually do.
お父さんこそ、 先に休んでていいよ。
I bet you're even more tired than I am, Dad.
本当はお仕事、大急ぎで 片付けてきたんでしょ?
You rushed through all the work you had to get back here as soon as possible, didn't you?
え、ええっと……
W-Well...
E-Eh bien...
はは、ティータも 鋭いことを言うようになったね。
Haha. You've gotten pretty sharp, huh?
わたしももうすぐ13だよ。 子供じゃないんだからぁ。
Well, I'm not a kid anymore! I'm thirteen now!
こ、これは……!?
Wh-What in Aidios' name...?!
エリカよ、本気で これを作るつもりなのか?
What part of your daft brain thought you should start MAKING this?!
……そのために帰ってきたのよ。
It's why we came back here to begin with.
こんなものを製作できるのは リベールの中央工房#8R Z C F#しかない。
ZCF is the only place around that will allow me to do so.
少なくとも私はそう信じているわ。
That's what I believe, anyway.
む、むう…… しかしじゃな……
Maybe so, but still...
……お母さん? お祖父ちゃん?
What're you guys arguing about?
あらティータ、 まだ起きてたの?
Oh, are you still awake?
もう12時回ってるんだから、 早く寝なさい。
It's past midnight, you know. You should go and get some rest.
えっと、それって設計図……?
What are those? Some kind of blueprints?
なになに、わたしにも見せて。
Can I see? Please?
ほら、お風呂上りなんだし 風邪引いちゃうじゃない。
You didn't get out of the bath that long ago! You're going to catch a cold hanging around in here. You should be getting ready for bed.
ええ~、わたしにも 見せて見せて!
Aww, but I want to see those blueprints!
すごく複雑そうだけど……
Whatever's on them looks reeeally complicated.
あの右端のやつって、 オーバルエンジンだよね。
That's an orbal engine on the right-hand side, right?
かなりコンパクトなタイプ……
It looks like a compact one, too.
あ、新しい飛行船かな? それとも…………
Oh, I know! Is it a new kind of airship?
お母さん、 わたしにも見せてよ!
Come on, Mom! I really wanna seeeeee!
ああもう、この子ったら。
Oh, boy. Look at you getting all fired up.
相変わらず、機械のことになると 目の色変わっちゃうのね~……
You just can't help yourself when it comes to machinery, can you?
……お母さん!? 誤魔化さないで!!
That's not fair!
こちらは片付きました。
All right, I've finished clearing up now.
そろそろ始めましょうか。
Shall we get to work?
あらダン、 丁度いいところに。
Oooh! Perfect timing.
この子、頼むわね。
Get our angel to bed, will you?
ああ、そうだね。 もう遅いし……
Sure. It IS past her bedtime.
ええ~っ!?
Whaaat?!
さ、ティータ……
Let's go, Tita.
ちょ、ちょっとだけで いいから見せて!
Let me have a quick look! Pleeease? I can go to bed right after that!
あのコンバーターの トルクが小さいのが気になる……
I can't work out why that converter's torque is so low, and it's bugging me.
(うーん、ちょっと見ないうちに {} パワーアップしてるな……)
(...It looks like her obsession's grown by monstrous proportions since we've been away.)
ほらほらティータ、もう寝ようね。
Be as that may be, it's still past your bedtime.
で、でもぉ……
B-But!
まずはこのユニットの 製作なんだけど……
Okay! Let's start with this unit here.
むう、厄介そうじゃの。
Even at a glance, I can tell it's not going to be easy to make.
一度カペルで シミュレーションする 必要がありそうじゃ……
We're best off starting by running a simulation on it with the Capel before actually attempting to make the blasted thing.
それからフレームなんですが、 従来のものでは持ちません。
Nothing comes to mind that would be strong enough to build the frame out of, either.
新素材を試してみようかと……
I say we should consider looking into a new one.
(な、何の話をしてるんだろう。 {} ドキドキ…………)
(I wonder what they're talking about. It all sounds so exciting...)
(もうちょっと {} 近づけないかな……)
(Maybe I can scooch closer without them noticing?)
ティータ?
Tita?
あう、見つかっちゃった……
Aww... I shouldn't have pushed my luck.
ほら、もう寝なさい。
Seriously, now. Go to bed.
えー、でも…………
Buuut...
詳しい話は、 明日教えてあげるから。
If you're that curious, I can tell you tomorrow. But right now, you need sleep.
……ね?
How does that sound? Good enough?
うう~……
But... ... ...
……絶対だよ。
That's a promise, okay?
お父さん、絶対だからね!
A PROMISE.
はいはい、絶対だ。
Yes, yes. I promise.
いい、お父さん。 …………絶対だよ!
I'm not going to let you forget that you promised!
わたしが知らないうちに 作っちゃったらダメだからね!
And don't go making whatever it is without me!
うん、わかってるよ。
I know. We won't.
空の女神様に誓って 約束は守ります。
I promise in the name of the Goddess above that I'll tell you tomorrow, and that we won't make it without you.
おやすみ、ティータ。
Anyway, good night, Tita.
う、うん……
O-Okay...
O-Ouais...
おやすみ……なさい……
Good...night...
……すー、すー…………
Zzz... Zzz...
(……ティータは時々、 {} エリカさんと同じ事を言うね。)
(She takes after her mother in every way.)
………………というわけじゃ。
...Well, that about wraps it up.
《身喰らう蛇》、か……
This is amazing...
やっぱり想像以上の 技術力を持っているみたいね。
Ouroboros' technology is even more impressive than I could've dreamed.
…………まあの。
That's a fine understatement.
正直、連中の技術力は ワシらのそれを遥かに超えておる。
Their technological level's far beyond that of ours.
人形兵器#8Rオーバーマペット#、《ゴスペル》、 そして《グロリアス》…………
That's true for virtually everything we've seen of theirs, too--the archaisms, the Gospels, the Glorious...
まあワシも、連中の技術力には 心当たりがないわけでもないが……
I'm not entirely without ideas on how they have all of it, though.
で、なんじゃお主ら。 藪から棒に……
Why the sudden questions, anyway?
連中の資料は 一通り送ったはずじゃが?
I've already sent you the info I had on them before.
実は……
The thing is...
僕たちも知ってるんですよ、 《身喰らう蛇》を……
...we didn't actually learn of them through the information you sent. We knew of them before that.
な、なんじゃと!?
You did?!
はっきりと 遭遇したわけではありません。
We haven't actually encountered them or any of their members, exactly.
しかし、彼らは猟兵団や 特定の資産家などを通し、 確実に勢力を伸ばしている……
But they've been expanding their influence across the continent for a while now through jaegers and certain wealthy individuals.
ここ数年、大陸辺境を回って それをひしひしと感じます。
We can confirm as much beyond a shadow of a doubt based on our travels.
……だから、帰ってきたのよ。
That's why we came back here.
まさかリベールに来るとは 思わなかったから、今回は 後手に回っちゃったけど……
We never imagined they'd be so bold as to try anything in Liberl, or we would have come back earlier...
私たちは一刻も早く、 これを完成させる必要があるわ。
...but they're not getting any more of a head start on us. We need to finish this, and we need to do it as soon as possible.
あ……あったあった。
Ah, here we are.
……これでよしっと。
...Right.
探し物は見つかった?
Did you find what you were looking for?
あれ、おとーさん……
Dad?
お鍋、見てなくていいの?
I thought you needed to watch over the hotpot?
ああ…… 後は煮込むだけだから。
Oh, no, I just need to leave it to boil now.
それより、ティータの様子を 見た方がいいかと思ってね。
So I thought I'd come and check on you instead.
わ、わたし?
M-Me?
さっきティータも言ったろ?
Well, you were saying earlier that you wanted to spend time talking to us.
もっと話が聞きたいって……
Didn't you?
う、うん……
Y-Yeah, I did, but...
O-Ouais...
その言葉で考えさせられたよ。
Hearing that really made me think.
2年も放っておいた挙げ句に そんな風に言われるなんて……
I'm pretty blessed to have a daughter who thinks that about the father who's basically left her to herself for two whole years...
本当、父さんたちは ダメ親もいいところだってな。
And a real failure of a father for not being able to give her what she wants even after finally coming back.
お、おとーさん……
D-Dad...
ううん…… そ、そんなことない。
That's not true at all!
きっと、これでいいんだよ。
I think this is for the best.
えっ……
...You do?
お話しできないのは やっぱり少し寂しいけど……
I'm not going to deny that I do kind of wish we had time to sit and talk after you both being away for so long...
でも、おじいちゃんや おかーさんと実験するのだって それに負けずに楽しいんだもん。
But being able to work with you, Mom and Grandpa is just as fun.
ちょっと変わってるけど これがウチの家族の 一家団らんなのかもって……
This might not be how most families come together, but it feels like it's how ours does.
えへへ…… 今はそんな風に思ってるんだ。
Heehee. So I really don't mind at all.
………………………………
...
......
……ど、どーしたの?
...Wh-What is it?
い、いや、驚いてたんだ。
N-No, it's nothing. You just took me by surprise, that's all.
なんだか、すごく 大人な意見だと思ってね。
That feels like such an adult thing to say.
ふう、ちょっと見ない間に ホントに大きくなったよ。
*sigh* I really am amazed by just how much you've grown in the relatively short time we've been away from home.
そ、そーかな?
R-Really?
まあ、これでも いろいろあったから……
Well, a lot has happened in the time you've been away back here, too...
ふーん、『いろいろ』か……
Has it, now?
……たとえばアガットさんとか?
...With Agate, I presume?
は、はうっ!?
Wh-What?!
ど、どーして突然その話題に!?
Wh-Why are you bringing him up?!
はは、図星みたいだな。
Haha. I'll take that as a yes, then.
……大切な人なのかい?
...Is he really important to you?
う……
Well...
Eh bien...
……うん、すごく。
...Yeah, he is.
何だか、おかーさんは 誤解しちゃってるけど……
Mom seems to have him all wrong, though...
母さんが 気に掛けるのは当然だよ。
It's no surprise that she's concerned about him, though.
父さんも、現役の頃には 母さんを心配させたからね。
I caused your Mom a whole lot of worries back when I was a bracer.
ティータには同じ思いを させたくないんだろう。
She probably doesn't want you to go through the same thing that she did.
あ……
Oh...
Oh...
そ、それであんなに……
S-So that's why...
ま、母さんの気持ちも 判ってあげて欲しい……
Just try and see where she's coming from, if you can.
もっとも、誤解があるなら まずはそれを解くべきだけどね。
Although misunderstandings are best cleared up as quickly as possible.
そ、そーだよね。
Y-Yeah...
O-Ouais...
でも、いきなりウチに 呼んじゃったりしたら……
Still, if I was to invite him over here to do that...
……危険だな、やめよう。
...Yeah, that would be a bad idea.
母さんが怒ったら 何が起こるか判らん。
There's no telling what she'd do if she got angry.
……だ、だよねえ。
...Y-Yeah, you're right...
うーん、条件が厳しいな。
Hmm... This might be difficult...
何かにかこつけて 来てもらえるといいんだが……
If only we could find some kind of excuse to get him to come here that wouldn't cause problems...
……………………………………
...
......
ど、どーしたの?
Wh-What's wrong?
……いや、思いついたぞ。
...I think I've thought of an idea.
よし、それじゃあ 鍋でもかき混ぜてくるかな。
Well, I guess I should go and stir the hotpot a bit.
お、おとーさん?
D-Dad?
誤解をとくって件は 父さんに任せてくれ。
Leave sorting out the misunderstanding with Agate to me.
少し時間は掛かるが、 悪いようにはしないさ。
It might take a bit of time, but I think I have just the way.
う、うん、判った。
O-Okay, then...
じゃ、また晩ご飯でな。
Well, I'll see you later at dinner, then.
はあ……びっくりした。
Whew... That caught me by surprise.
いきなりアガットさんの 話になるなんて……
I wasn't expecting him to suddenly bring Agate up like that...
い、いけない! ご本を届けなくっちゃ!
O-Oh, I need to hurry up and deliver this book!
