Loveless 4 chapter 21
translated by Kudou Omi, April 2005 (ended in June due to sly computers and naughty internet connection)
p115
Yamato: "Where is your name?"
Ritsuka: "I have nothing like that."
Yamato: "You must have one, you probably haven't noticed it yet. Maybe it's in a place you can't see by yourself. We can have a look if you want."
Ritsuka: "No, thank you!!"
Yamato: "By the way, mine is on my breast!" haha! "wanna see?"
Ritsuka: "Idi...!!"
p116
Yamato: "Ouch!!"
waitress: "Are you hurt, Miss?"
Ritsuka: "Sorry. What are you doing, in such a place!? Moron!"
Yamato: "That's my line!" I didn't really intend to show you my breast! Perv! "What a strange boy. You don't have your name on your body? How cool!"
p117
Yamato: "That each partner has its name on their body is extremely important. It's special, decided by Heavens. This person shares your destiny."
Ritsuka: "I hate that. I want to decide my life by myself! I don't mean being with someone and having the same name, but to be able to decide alone."
Yamato: "You say so because you don't know anything."
p118
Ritsuka: "Hey! Where are you going?" In the middle of a conversation...
Yamato: "To the toilets." You say so because you don't have anything.
[Yamato: "Kouya, has your name appeared?"
kouya: "Yes, on my breast."
Yamato: "Just like me!"
Kouya: "You want to see?"
Yamato: "Yes. That's true, same as mine!"
Kouya: "yes."
yamato: "your breast are so small!" *giggle*
kouya: "Shut up!"]
p119
Yamato: My name is becoming lighter..... It'll probably disappear if I fight today... "Why... why only me..." I don't want to separate from Kouya. I won't be controlled by our name."
p120
Yamato: But this name is the only thing I can give to her. And now this name is disappearing.
p121
Ritsuka: /Why... That person... Soubi... they look sad.../ Coffee has really a bad taste!!
Waitress : "Do you want hot coffee instead, sir ?"
Ritsuka: "I don’t!!" /Hot coffee? ……
Yamato: "Sorry to have you waiting, Schoolboy! So what? You make such a face…"
Ritsuka: "I…"
P122
Ritsuka: "I don’t know if I’ve understood your secret…"
*mobile ring*
P123
guy: "Excuse-me, Minami-sensei… Mobiles are forbidden in the library…"
Ritsu: "Haa, I cut it off."
*it’s from Soubi*
Ritsu: "Yes. Soubi-kun?"
Soubi: "It’s Agatsuma. I had never imagined I would need to phone you."
Ritsu: "There is something you want to ask? It’s okay."
Soubi: "But before, please stand up."
Ritsu: "Stand? Why?"
Soubi: "You must be at the library at this hour of the day, right?"
P124
Soubi: "You’re annoying everybody. Moreover, his is a private discussion, so go to a quiet place."
Ritsu: "Boy."
Guy:"Y…yes?"
Ritsu: "I have to go for a moment, could you place these books back to their shelves?"
"what? Zero? They lost just after the battle started? Hm… They’re the ones Nagisa made…Because Zero isn’t efficient. It’s not your matter."
Soubi: "Something happened?"
Ritsu: "Sacrifices were interchanged."
Soubi: "Interchanged…!"
Ritsu: "We substituted one’s sacrifice with another’s."
P125
Soubi: "I didn’t know such a thing was going on."
Ritsu: "It’s limited to Zero."
Soubi: "As for casting spells?"
Ritsu: "Who knows… but it’s the separation system… The power released by the enemy is turned back against him."
Soubi: "It’s awful… But of course it didn’t work as Nagisa-sensei expected." To substitute sacrifices…
Flashback:
Kouya: "I disconnect from this wound. Let’s conclude it."
"Goodbye, Yamato, goodbye!!"
Soubi: "With the end of the fight, everything comes back to normal."
P126
Ritsu: "Mental damages remain when you use a spell. To suppress the wound of your partner with a same name in an instant includes excessive forces."
Soubi: /Why use such a fighting device? Because it allows Zero to disconnect from pain? To fear flesh damages? I’ve never seen such an experiment./ "Thank you for telling me. See you."
Ritsu: "Soubi-kun."
Soubi: "Yes?"
Ritsu: "What about coming once in a while?"
Soubi: "I don’t want to. Bye."
Ritsu: "I thought you would be a master. And I was being happy about it…"
