Just a quick translation (not entirely correct), and no reference to terminology thread, hence the terms are wrong. Don't mind if you use it either.KuroiHikari wrote:If anyone is interested in giving translating this a shot, I've got 2 pages from chp7 of vol3.
I'll take a look at it and comment before 4th Sept. The text may be inaccurate.Spoiler! :156
夕刻。学院都市の広場は大勢の人々でにぎわっていた。
鼻孔をくすぐる甘い匂い。祭殿にはおいしそうな焼菓子が山のように積まれ、学院から派遣された姫巫女が精霊を楽しませる剣舞を披露している。
「しかし、どこにいったんだ、あいつは?」
クレアの投げつけてきたチョコレートに目を落としながら―
カミトはやれやれとため息をついた。
エリスと二人でクレアを追いかけていたのだが、途中で警備の交代時間がきてしまったため、彼女を追うのはあきらめ、<風>区画の巡回警備をしているのだ。
「……」
横を歩くエリスは複雑な表情で、カミトの持つチョコレートを見つめていた。
「どうした、エリス?」
「い、いや、なんでもない……この地区に問題はなさそうだな」
エリスは咳払いして、あわてて目を逸らした。
たしかに、このあたりはとくに目立った騒動はないようだ。
酔っぱらいどうしの喧嘩やスリくらいはあるかもしれないが、そういったトラブルには街の自警団が対応してくれている。むしろカミトたちが気を付けるぺきなのは、精霊との交流に慣れていない一般市民が、知らずに精霊の逆鱗に触れてしまうことだ。
精霊を祀る祭祀のときには、その手の事故がたびたび起きている。
「まるで……デ、デートのようだな」
「ん、なにか言ったか？」
「なんでもないっ、もっと警備に意識を集申しろ!」
エリスが顔を真っ赤にして怒った。
「わ、悪い……」
謝るカミト。
(……っていうか、意識を集中していないのはエリスのほうじゃないか?)
エリスは、さっきから、落ち着きなくカミトの横顔をチラチラ見ていた。
足取りもなんだかふらふらして危なっかしい。
肩が触れるか触れないかまで近づいたと思ったら「ふわあっ」と悲鳴を上げてまた離れる―そんなことを繰り返しているのだ。
そのせいで、すれ違う入々と何度もぶつかりそうになっていた。
「エリス、そんな歩き方してたら危ないそ」
見かねたカミトがエリスの手を引くと、
「……っ、な、なな、なにをするのだ、不埒者っ!」
Spoiler! :
It was evening. On the plaza of the Academy Town, there were crowds of people going about their business.
A sweet aroma wafted into his nostrils. At the shrine, delicious-looking baked sweets were piled up like a mountain, with the hime-miko that were dispatched from the academy performing the Blade Dance which celebrated the spirits.
"However, where was she going, that girl?"
As his gaze fell towards the chocolate that Claire had thrown aside -
Kamito breathed a sigh, exasperated.
Together with Ellis and the other two, they had given chase after Claire, but halfway through, the time for the change of patrolling shifts had came, and they had to give up on the chase. With that, they started their rounds around the <Wind> area.
"....."
Ellis, walking right beside him with a complicated expression, stared at the chocolate that Kamito was carrying.
"What is it, Ellis?"
"N-no, it's nothing.... it looks like there's no problem in this area."
Ellis coughed, and looked away.
Indeed, there did not seem to be any signs of suspicious activity in this area.
Although there might have been brawls between drunkards, that kind of trouble were left to the street's vigilante corps to deal with. Rather, what Kamito and the others needed to look out for, were the commonfolk that were unused to interaction with spirits, that have unknowingly brought down the wrath of the spirits upon themselves.
During the festivals of spirit worship, that kind of incident would frequently occur.
"This is almost like.... a da-date."
"Hm, did you say something?"
"Nothing at all, concentrate more on your patrolling awareness!"
Ellis' face was flushed a deep red as she got angry.
"So-sorry...."
Kamito apologized.
(..... Wait a second, isn't Ellis the one who isn't concentrating more on her awareness?)
From earlier on, Ellis was not able to calm down, and was stealing glances at Kamito's face from the side, now and then.
Somehow, her manner of walking seemed unsteady and uncertain.
Their shoulders coming so close together that he was not sure whether they were touching, and then her screaming 'Fuwaa', once again moving away from him - that kind of thing was repeated over and over.
Because of that, they bumped into the people that they passed by, many times.
"Ellis, walking like that is dangerous."
Unable to watch any longer, Kamito grabbed Ellis' hand,
"...... W-w-what are you doing, you insolent person!"

The author's use of furigana is a bit of a pain.
