Happy Halloween! |
Greetings exchanged here and there in the streets, just for now. It's Halloween time again this year. |
After our mission in Eisengrad, the Special Steel Squad is now visiting a place called Harz. This is the hometown of Quedlinburg, Wernigerode and Goslar. |
Shanghai |
"Happy Halloween! Happy Halloween too, uncles and aunts!" |
Shanghai |
"This town of Harz is amazing. Everyone is dressed up, adults and children alike. And they gave me so much candy just for saying hello!" |
Quedlinburg |
"Harz is a town full of dreams. Everyone always wants to make someone happy. I'm sure you'll get more dream candy than you can hold after a round around town." |
Shanghai |
"You can get that much? I've heard rumours about this town since I was little, but it really is a dream town...!" |
Wernigerode |
"Well, this is just the beginning of what you think is a really dreamy town - have you ever seen Dream Magic, Shanghai?" |
Shanghai |
"Not at all! But I know a bit about it from reading about it, it's magic only in Harz and it's magic that delivers dreams, right?" |
Wernigerode |
"Yes. You're not wrong. It's nothing like the magic that is commonly known. I'm sure you'll be delighted." |
Shanghai |
"I can't stop being excited when you say it like that - you can use it, can't you, Wernigerode? Please, let me have it!" |
Wernigerode |
"I'd want to - but I'm going to perform in the Dream Magic Show later and I want to surprise you, Shanghai, so until then it's a secret." |
Quedlinburg |
"Only a handful of Harz magi get to perform in the Halloween Dream Magic Show. The tickets sell out quickly every year because you get to see Dream Magic at its best!" |
Shanghai |
"Is Wernigerode going to be on such an amazing stage?" |
Quedlinburg |
"Yes, Wernigerode is one of the stars of Harz. So, Shanghai, let's cheer for her together later♪" |
Shanghai |
"Sure!" |
Wernigerode |
"There are many other magi in Harz besides me. Dream Magic is very different from one person to another, and each one has his or her own wonderful dream to show us. Let's have a look around the town until the show starts." |
Wernigerode |
"Quedlinburg, would you still like me to show you around Halloween Street?" |
Quedlinburg |
"I won't miss that for the world. Afterwards, I would like to see the Dream Magic spell-artist in the square and enjoy the magic puppet show before going to the venue." |
Wernigerode |
"Quedlinburg's pretty greedy with her main courses." |
Quedlinburg |
'It's Halloween in Harz after all. It would be a waste if we didn't visit as much as possible. I used to get so frustrated every year when I couldn't make it all the way round." |
Quedlinburg |
"But how lucky I am to be back in Harz just in time for Halloween. The atmosphere, it's great." |
Wernigerode |
"Yes, my heart has been pounding ever since I came back to Harz. I'm going to have a lot of fun today, and I'm going to entertain you all to the fullest." |
Quedlinburg |
"Alright. Well, Miss Shanghai, we're off to Halloween Street for a bit of Dream Magic." |
Quedlinburg |
"...Eh? Where did Miss Shanghai went off to?" |
Conductor |
'Shanghai would have gone to see the accessory stalls over there, but I don't see her... |
Wernigerode |
"Don't mean to tell me she lost her way? That's really not good, that is." |
Quedlinburg |
"It's so crowded, once we get separated it's hard to rejoin again. What should we do...?" |
Quedlinburg |
"Should we wait here?" |
Wernigerode |
If Shanghai thinks the same thing, we won't be able to meet up with each other at all. Then Conductor should stay here..." |
Wernigerode |
"Ah, that's right. I've got a great idea." |
As soon as she muttered this, Wernigerode unleashes her magical powers. |
A huge, glowing portrait is created above Quedlinburg's head. Perhaps this is also Dream Magic. |
Wernigerode |
"Eheheh, it's impromptu, but don't you think I did a good job drawing Quedlinburg's face?" |
Quedlinburg |
"Well, you're good, but I've never done such a dignified expression. I think a more joyful expression would be more like me." |
Wernigerode |
"O-Oh, really? Then a smile like this?" |
Quedlinburg |
"Yes, yes. Then stick out my tongue. Yes, it looks good. This way Shanghai will know it's me." |
Wernigerode |
"Alright, now to write a message in a speech bubble next to this portrait of Quedlinburg." |
Quedlinburg |
"Ah, it's like a comic, it's fun♪ I'm sure Shanghai will be able to find us.". |
Quedlinburg |
"Miss Shanghai, over here~~" |
Conductor |
Whenever Quedlinburg leapt up and down, the large portrait above her head also wiggled comically. |
---- |
Shanghai |
"Uwaaaaah! Where did everybody goooo!? Where is, where is Shanghai aaaaaaat~~!" |
Shanghai |
"Ugh, where is everyone..." |
Harz Girl |
"Have you lost someone, big sis? Do you want me to help and look together?" |
Shanghai |
"You really want to stay with Shanghai...? Thank you so much~~!" |
Shanghai |
"Well, my companion is a girl called Quedlinburg..." |
Shanghai |
"Ah, that portrait is Quedlinburg! I did it, I finally found her!" |
---- |
Shanghai |
"EVERYOOONE~~!" |
Wernigerode |
"Oh, it seems to have had an immediate effect." |
Quedlinburg |
"Miss Shanghai!" |
Shanghai |
"EVERYOOONE~~!" |
Wernigerode |
"Welcome back, Miss Shanghai." |
Shanghai |
"I enjoyed everything I saw and then I realised everyone was gone. If it wasn't for the portrait you drew in the air, I would have been in danger..." |
Quedlinburg |
"Wernigerode drew it for me instantly. It's another piece of Dream Magic." |
Shanghai |
"Ooooh, this is dream magic. What useful and fun magic!" |
Wernigerode |
"Hmmhmm, I'm glad you enjoyed it." |
Wernigerode |
"...By the way, Shanghai. Who is that girl that's holding your hand?" |
At Wernigerode's response, a little girl peeked out from behind Shanghai. |
