To celebrate, I thought it'd be a good time to start translating what I'm going to call the "backstories": those blurbs of text in the backcover of the books, that seem to be some kind of battle-oriented prologue. The idea was to go from newest to oldest, but I couldn't resist the puppy eyes below.
Enjoy!
Rebellion Aldra
Hey, darling, wake up.
Geez,
you’re already oversleeping.
Kiss.
Ah, you
woke up.
Good
morning, darling.
Geez, to
wake the other up with a kiss is the role of the prince!
I made
breakfast. Your favorite rice dish.
Though it
was a little expensive, since I received a lot of tips from the regular
costumers yesterday, every once in a while…
Eh, what
kind of people are my costumers, you say?
Oh my, are
you jealous?
Though I
understand. Al is crazy about you. Only for you.
Geez, don’t
make me say such a thing in the morning, how embarrassing…
Hey,
darling.
I have
something important to tell you.
I will be
going away for a while.
I'm sorry,
please don’t ask me why.
But one
thing is for sure. I’m leaving for our sake.
You, who saved
me when I had lost it all, are the most precious to me.
And, you’re
all I have now.
To protect
you, I…
Knock, knock!
“Mada~m, how long will you keep us waiting? I
have no more patience!”
“Hohoho, isn’t it fine? At any rate, we’ll have
ple~nty of time from now on. Let’s do this carefully, ca~refully, right?”
Geez, I
have to go. Sorry for the sudden departure.
Then, I’m
leaving, darling.
Sure
enough, for the sake of protecting the husband she loves, can Aldra win using
the wicked summoned beasts?
They won’t
know that unless they fight.
Izumi
“Hey, that girl has followed us all along, though.”
The Alchemy Strategist Yuit pulled the sleeve of her “sister”, the
leader of the Rebel Army Annelotte, and whispered into her ear.
“That’s right. Why shouldn’t we take her, if she wants to come along
too?”
Annelotte was as carefree as always.
“That’s no good! Since we’ll be carrying out an important strategy to
strike the enemy base from now on. It’s not rational to take her in like this!”
“But, samurais are the strongest fighters in Hinomoto, and didn’t she
say herself that she was a considerable master? I’ll welcome such a strong
fighter.”
“Did you decide it on such a downright lie! Anyways, don’t do it because
she was friendly to big bro a little while ago, since she’s just like following
us for the time being like a puppy that is being fed.”
Suddenly, Izumi blew loudly the whistle made from strange shells that
hung from her waist.
“Noisy! What is it?”
“It’s you over there who are noisy. I heard the whole thing! Calling
someone a fake.”
“Oh my, how rude.”
“Mainly, it’s not that I’m following you. Aren’t you guys who are
walking in front of me-!"
Then, in front of the party, a really powerful enemy at a glance stood
in their way.
“Hey! I was found because you blew that strange whatever made of
shellfish! Take responsibility for it!”
Izumi had been nervous for a while.
“Alright, I’ll do it! I, I’m Izumi of the War God Fencing! Come on,
bring it on!”
Sure enough, can Izumi win against this powerful opponent?
They won’t know that unless they fight.
“S, since I’m winning no matter what, then… can I go with you?”
