Chronicle of Vengeance/Event Story

## Verse 1

新種の魔物が目撃サレルようになり、一月が経過。其ノ魔物は各地に**未曾有**ノ被害ヲもたらした。
国はソノ厄災を、同種の捕食報告カラ『闇喰ライ』ト命名シ異質の固体と確定シタ。
王ハ国家転覆ヲ危惧し、討伐隊の結成を命ジル。
A new species of demon was sighted,and one month has passed since then.The SAID demons have been the cause of
**unprecedented**damage everywhere.
As it is reported that the species is cannibalistic,the kingdom has dubbed these foreign entities"Despair-Devourers".
In fear of mutiny,the king establishes the formation of a conquest troop.

## Verse 2

次第ニ頭角ヲ現す固体ガ生まれ始メタ。
共食いは、その体躯ヲ肥大化させるが**副作用**も認めらレル。
其ノ副作用とは即チ、自我ノ崩壊。
国は昼夜問ワズ、取り込まれたモノの怨嗟の叫びが響キ渡ル、魔境と化シタ。モウ、この世界ノ**終焉**は近イ。
Eventually, it began to give rise to distinguished entities.
Cannibalism greatly enhances their physique,and a **secondary effect** was confirmed as well.THE said secondary effect IS, the breakdown OF their ego.
Be it day or night, the captives'indignant cries filled the air, and the kingdom verged on its spirit-breaking phase.The **demise** of this world is already on its way.

## Verse 3

だが、負けずニ立ち上がる者モイルソノ勇気ある者達ハ続々と討伐隊へと入隊シタ。
没落した名家を再興スルタメ立ち上がる者。血に飢え、強者との戦いを望ム者。病気の母親ヲ入院させるタメ、死を決意する者。
立ち向かう理由はそれぞれ異ナル。ダガ皆等しく**誇り**を胸にしてイタ。
However, there were ones that didn't yield and stood firm;the said brave ones,one after another, joined the conquest troop.
Someone stands upto restore the lost honor of their family.Bloody-minded, someone desires battles with the strong.Someone wishes to have their sickly mother treated,resolved to face death.
Each of them have their own reason to fight.But they all bear the same **pride**inside their hearts.

## Verse 4

・・・・・・数多ノ討伐隊をソノ代償ニシテ。
そしてアル作戦が決行される事とナル。それは無謀とも思える一斉攻撃デアッタ。
彼らは決意シタ。たとえその身を散ラス**無謀な戦い**であろうとも、国ヲ、家族ヲ、そして愛する者ヲ
守ルため、ソノ**命**を捧げると。
...... At the cost of a multitude of conquest troopers.
And then, they're going to carry out a certain strategy.Which entailed a strike in one fell swoop - rather reckless, you'd say.
They were resolved.Even if they are going to perish witha **reckless battle**like this;for their kingdom, their family, and their loved ones
to be kept safe,their**lives**will be the offerings.

## Verse 5

彼らノ**憎悪の炎**は
激しく燃え盛り、
何度デモ立ち向かい続けタ。
誰モガ、勝利を疑わなかっタ。
誰モガ、大切な者を守るタメ
**剣**を掲げた。
ソウ。一瞬の気の緩みが訪れるマデハ・・・・・・
the conquest troop managed to corner Despair-Devourers.
With their **flame of hatred**burning wild and bright,they continued to stand firm how many times it took.
No one doubted this triumph.
To protect their cherished ones, all of them
raised their **swords**.
So it was. Until that instantthey let their guard down......

## Verse 6

（Ｉ）アカンサス
（ＩＩ）カンパネラ
（ＩＩＩ）シオン
（ＩＶ）デルフィニウム
・・・・・・以上１２１２名
敗北は一人ノ**少女**に起因。
戦場に迷い込んできた少女を救うタメ
隊列は崩れ、彼等ハ闇に飲まレタ。
ソシテ、強者ヲ捕食シタ闇喰ライは
異様な肥大化をミセ
声高らかに。**鳴イタ**。
(I) Acanthus
(II) Campanella
(III) Shion
(IV) Delphinium
.....1212 in total.
The cause of their defeat was a single **girl**.
To save the girl who lost her way into the battlefield,
they broke their formation, and got swallowed by darkness.
And so, Despair-Devourers consumed the strong and
demonstrated their grotesque growth
then with a loud voice. They **cried**.

## Verse 7

•討伐隊隊長クローカス
•破滅ヲもたらした少女、ジギタリス
両名は、同胞ガ
次々と捕食サレル光景が
度々フラッシュバックする模様。
軍医ハ心理療法として
クローカスに対し
少女との**対話**ヲ命ジタ。
本計画ハ
少女の保護ヲ存在理由とするコトで
自責の念を緩和させることを目的とスル。
以後、経過観察ヲ続行スル
• Captain of the conquest troop, Crocus
• The girl harbinger of their fall, Digitalis
Both of them
keep having repeated flashbacks
of their brethren being consumed.
To heal their minds, the medic
ordered Crocus
to **converse** with the girl.
The true plan is
meant to relieve their guilt
via making protecting the girl their reason to exist.
Hereon, we shall resume the follow-up

## Verse 8

また、好ましいコトに、両名の病状の回復と共に討伐隊の志望者数も上昇傾向と為ッタ。
アノ惨劇から数年が経過スル頃には
討伐隊は以前を超える模様にまで拡大。
ソシテ両名は互いを心の拠り所とするコトで再び戦線へ**復帰**シタ。
And opportunely,there is a rise in the number of people who wished to join the conquest troopalongside the two's recovery from their conditions.
Few years have passed since the said tragedyand the conquest troop has expanded beyond their old scope.
And then, now the two,with the other as their emotional crutch,made their **return** to the front line.

## Verse 9

クローカスはその勇ましい表情のまま、
ポトリと、その首ヲ地ニ落トシタ。
**心**ガ砕ケル音が響ク・・・・・・
狂乱ノ叫びと共に、剣ヲ振る少女。
彼女ハ最早、
復讐ニ囚ワレタ、**悪魔**と化シタ。
其れカラ、彼女は立ち向かい続けてイル。
居場所であった討伐隊ヲ失い。
守ルベキ国スラモ、闇に飲マレて尚
ただ一人、闇喰ライに
立ち向かい続けてイル・・・・・・
and valiant they stayed,
plop, as their head fell to the ground.
Her **heart**gotbroken, loud and clear......
With a maddening cry, the girl brandishes her sword.
She already
became a demon, enslaved to **vengeance**.
Thereafter, she keeps on standing firm.
Without the conquest troop as her crutch.
Even the kingdom she ought to protect got swallowed by darkness
and yet she keeps on standing firm
against the Despair-Devourers, all by herself......

## Verse 10

### Prologue

ドウカ聞こえてイル者がイルナラバ、
闇喰ライを殺シテ欲シイ。
私達ノ復讐ヲ成し遂ゲテ欲シイ。
我々の戦イハ意味ノアル事ダッタト、
証明シテ欲しい。
コチラ討伐隊、隊長クローカス。応答願ウ。応答願ウ。**応答**願ウ・・・・・・
私ガ私でナクナル・・・・・・マエニ・・・・・・

### Epilogue

幾重にも重なり水面を揺らす。
闇喰ライの死骸が
様々想いを乗せ、消える。
頭に響く**調査報告**。
宛先を失ったはずの報告は、
何の因果か私に届いた。
彼らは奪われたのだろうか？
それとも、解放されたのだろうか？
私はただ、
取り込まれた者達が
虚空に溶ける光景を
眺め続けた・・・・・・
and their howls rippled the water's surface again and again.
The Despair-Devourers' remains
fade away, with a multitude of feelings.
The **investigation report** that resounds in my head.
The report with its destination no more
got through to me by some turn of fate.
Did they stay bereft?
Or were they set free?
I simply
continued to gaze at
the sight of the captives
fading into the empty sky......
