Seeking and Finding/Story

Part 1[]

English・Japanese



Edelgardエーデルガルト	There you are, Hubert.
Lady Edelgard... So you located me. Yes, it is true that I find the festival's rowdiness stifling.		Hubertヒューベルト
Edelgardエーデルガルト	No surprise there. In fact, the only surprise was when you received an invite from `【Summoner】`.
I find that the summoner's mind is often opaque to me... Was it goodwill? Whimsy? Or a desire to see me chafe?		Hubertヒューベルト
Edelgardエーデルガルト	A touch too harsh, don't you think? I am sure the summoner wishes you to let loose a little and enjoy yourself, as befits someone your age.
If that is the case, my nature has been sorely misunderstood. Imagine me, handing out flowers with a grin!		Hubertヒューベルト
Edelgardエーデルガルト	Ha! Don't put the image in my mind.
Hm. Maybe it is a good idea, in truth. I could see the reactions of those who receive my flowers. My smile will be genuine. This is too amusing.		Hubertヒューベルト
Edelgardエーデルガルト	Is this a jest?
Oh, not at all. I may yet wring some enjoyment from this festival. Now, to prepare...		Hubertヒューベルト
Edelgardエーデルガルト	Hubert! Wait a moment!

English・Japanese


Hubertヒューベルト	Ah. Dimitri and Claude. Enjoying the festival?
Hubert... Did Edelgard send you?		Dimitriディミトリ
Hubertヒューベルト	Certainly not. It is the Day of Devotion and I am here to express my gratitude to you both. Lady Edelgard has learned much on the battlefield—thanks to the sharpness of her opponents.
You came here to tell us that? I smell a rat.		Claudeクロード

English・Japanese


Hubertヒューベルト	Here, take a token of my appreciation. I hope that you continue to compete assiduously with Lady Edelgard. Heh.
You offer flowers? Unbelievable. I feel as though spears will drop from the heavens when I set foot outside.		Dimitriディミトリ

English・Japanese


Edelgardエーデルガルト	Damn, I've lost sight of him in this crowd. Where did you go, Hubert?
Oh, a food stand, I see. I smell a tantalizing scent!		Sothisソティス
Rheaレア	Are you interested? Let us stop and see what they have on offer.

English・Japanese


Edelgardエーデルガルト	Not here, either. This is playing on my nerves, and I can't seem to regain my calm. I must leave, and quickly.

English・Japanese


Hubertヒューベルト	Ah, Lady Edelgard. Here you are.
I was looking for you, Hubert. Judging from how few flowers you have left, you gave away many.		Edelgardエーデルガルト
Claudeクロード	This does not make me feel appreciated. What am I supposed to do with flowers, anyway?
To receive flowers was a surprise, but not an unpleasant one.		Dimitriディミトリ
Sothisソティス	Festivals are amusing! I wish to continue on.
Yes, of course. We may stay as long as you wish.		Rheaレア

English・Japanese



Hubertヒューベルト	Heh! Their faces...
You are truly incorrigible... You frightened them, you know.		Edelgardエーデルガルト
Hubertヒューベルト	If you have a complaint, I direct you to `【Summoner】`. After all, that's where I received my invitation. I merely found a way to enjoy the festival—my way.
No, no complaints. You do seem to have truly enjoyed yourself.		Edelgardエーデルガルト
Hubertヒューベルト	How tolerant you are, my lady. I was certain I would be scolded.
I do wish for your happiness in my own way, as your lord. To see you enjoying yourself pleases me too. But perhaps, next time, you can find a less disconcerting means.		Edelgardエーデルガルト
Hubertヒューベルト	I am honored you would consider my feelings. However...
As your lord, I know that I need not consider your feelings. And I already know what it is you wish of me. But it is the Day of Devotion. What purpose is there to this day but to consider the feelings of others?		Edelgardエーデルガルト
Hubertヒューベルト	That is true. I was about to say something quite uncalled for. So I will say only thank you, Lady Edelgard.
You are most welcome. A path stained in blood awaits us tomorrow. Let us enjoy today, at least.		Edelgardエーデルガルト
Hubertヒューベルト	Yes, Your Highness. I will follow you to the ends of the worlds.

English・Japanese

Sothisソティス	Would this work well? Hm. No. It does not feel right. Then what of this?
You look troubled. Are you ruminating on a decision?		Rheaレア
Sothisソティス	Do not concern yourself. I am pondering a gift for someone dear. As I considered it, I realized I do not know their tastes. This is vexing.
That does sound troublesome. Still, if you are considering it so carefully, I am sure your choice will bring them joy.		Rheaレア
Sothisソティス	The conundrum is that they are the type who finds gifts a bother. But I wish to astound them with my perspicacity!
Astound them, you say?		Rheaレア

English・Japanese

Rheaレア	We didn't buy anything in the end.
Indeed. My contemplations led me nowhere. We must give up. My safe return will make the best gift!		Sothisソティス
Rheaレア	Yes. Nothing physical can last forever. It all fades in time. But time spent together will forever be enshrined in precious memories.
Memories are not eternal! Many objects will outlast them, even. Humans have such short spans.		Sothisソティス
Rheaレア	Humans do, yes. But time for me is everlasting. And I will never forget how things once were. I will return those days. That thought is what sustains me, even now.
I am unsure if I should be pleased to be on your mind so much.		Sothisソティス
Rheaレア	Oh, of course you should. But what of these flowers? I feel that anyone would be happy to receive these.
Flowers? So ordinary. But so be it. Quantity will best quality! Let us gather an astounding amount of blossoms. It is decided!		Sothisソティス
Rheaレア	Haha. I will certainly help. This moment too... It will never leave my memory.
Do not just stand there! Make haste!		Sothisソティス
Rheaレア	Certainly. Like I remember...
