| Guernica |
(Ah――) | |
|---|---|---|
| A powder keg was tied to a huge arrow that suddenly came flying. It exploded close by and Guernica was blown unconscious. | ||
| Guernica |
(I am dreaming, aren't I?) | |
| Guernica |
(Ah, what a nostalgic sight.) | |
| Guernica |
(This is a jewel box.) | |
| Guernica |
(The lavishly decorated house where Lady Fran grew up. Each piece of art displayed there had a price tag that I couldn't afford even if I sold ten or twenty of myself off.) | |
| Guernica |
(I was born and brought up in the countryside where there was nothing, everything was so dazzling to me――) | |
| Guernica |
(Yet the one who was spent more money protecting and raising than anything else placed in such an ornate room, was Lady Fran.) | |
| Guernica |
(The brilliant, peachy, gem in a jewellery box) | |
| Guernica |
(Ah, Milady Fran.) | |
| Guernica |
(Little, cute, Milady Fran.) | |
| Guernica |
(I wanted to give you everything.) | |
| Guernica |
(You are the shining jewel, and I am the rag that wipes the dirt.) | |
| Guernica |
(I was content with that position.) | |
| (I have always been a child who is not good at asserting myself. I'm not very talkative, I'm plain, and I'm easily forgotten.) | ||
 Guernica |
(The only time my existence is recognized is when I am of use to someone. I could only live as a useful tool.) | |
| Guernica |
(I do not feel sorry for my situation. I was fulfilled. I was useful, I was praised――) | |
| Guernica |
(Nah. I'm just happy that they recognise my presence.) | |
| Guernica |
(I am furniture. Something useful to have there. I am satisfied with it.) | |
| Guernica |
(And then. Lady Fran, who was brought up spoiled and therefore incapable of anything ―― My new mistress always needed me.) | |
| Guernica |
(That's why, Lady Fran, she always recognised me.) | |
| Guernica |
(Do you remember? When you went to bed at night, you used to cry like a baby because you were anxious if I was not there. I was filled with joy when I saw you cry.) | |
| Guernica |
(Every time she wanted me like a mother, I was happy, even though I was not her mother.) | |
| Guernica |
(It was a sordid codependency. A rather, unhealthy relationship.) | |
| Guernica |
(Nevertheless. For me, that was all the happiness in my life.) | |
| Guernica |
(Of course. You were the daughter of the Dictator who ruled the land, and you were doted on and brought up like a flower in a greenhouse by him, enjoying the springtime of the world.) | |
| Guernica |
(You were given everything, even if I didn't give it to you.) | |
| Guernica |
(Nevertheless.) | |
| Guernica |
(You are greedy and selfish, like your parents, child.) | |
| Guernica |
(No matter what was given to you, you were never satisfied, you wanted everything.) | |
| Guernica |
(That's why. I thought I could serve you forever.) | |
| Guernica |
(You say, 'I want that'.) | |
| Guernica |
(I respond, 'Of course, Milady Fran.') | |
| Guernica |
(I thought we could carry on like that forever and ever.) | |
| Guernica |
(But... You have changed.) | |
| Guernica |
(You were abducted by kidnappers who hate the Dictator.) | |
| Guernica |
(By the time we struggled to get you back, you had already changed.) | |
| Guernica |
(The beautiful, little peach-coloured jewel was shattered.) | |
| Guernica |
(I couldn't protect you... Is your transformation such a punishment for me?) | |
| Guernica |
(You have become distorted and changed as a person. You have rejected and despised everything you used to receive with pleasure. Beautiful flowers, jewels, costumes, works of art, love.) | |
| Guernica |
(For you, I became the last thing in the world you needed.) | |
| Guernica |
(So I ended up being thrown out.) | |
| Guernica |
(The Dictator, who thought he understood the feelings of a cute girl, forced me into a terrorist den.) | |
| Guernica |
(Without even carrying a weapon. I was thrown into the midst of an angry mob.) | |
| Guernica |
(There was no way to come back alive, suicidal.) | |
| Guernica |
(Of course. I will never defy even the Dictator. The vindictive enemy who destroyed my homeland? A hateful man who wants me dead?) | |
| Guernica |
(However, it is impossible for furniture not to fulfill its function.) | |
| Guernica |
(That, is my pride.) | |
| Guernica |
(If you wish, I will gladly obey your orders.) | |
| Guernica |
(If you ask me to die, I will die.) | |
| Guernica |
(But, but hey.... My, my dear mistress...) | |
| Guernica |
(I love and want to serve you with all my heart――) | |
| Guernica |
"――――" | |
| Frankfurt |
"GUERNICA! GUERNICA! GUERNICAAA!" | |
| Guernica |
"Fran...... Milady." | |
| Guernica, who had fainted and was dreaming, was laid on Frankfurt's knees, sobbing heavily. Guernica looked confused, as if unable to comprehend such a situation. | ||
| Guernica |
"Again? You are crying again." | |
| Guernica |
"What do you want? Beautiful flowers? Jewels? Dresses? Your favourite sausage or your apfelwein?" | |
| Guernica |
"I will, bring it to you, right now." | |
 Frankfurt |
"What nonsense are you talking!?" | |
| Frankfurt |
"If you're safe...... Here, Fran wouldn't want anything else." | |
| Guernica |
"Is that so? That's a good thing, because it saves me the trouble of having to prepare a lot of things." | |
| Frankfurt |
"I've been worried about you for a long time, Guernica." | |
| Guernica |
"............" | |
| Frankfurt |
"But Fran believed that you would definitely live, Guernica can do anything, you are clever and strong." | |
| Frankfurt |
"That's why. Fran wanted to make you happy when you came back, so that Fran, who can't do anything, could make the best of what she can do――" | |
| Frankfurt |
"I built a skyscraper for you in this 'bottom town' where your home in this territory used to be." | |
| Guernica |
"Ah, that ridiculous, magnificent building is――" | |
| Frankfurt |
"It's yours, Guernica." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Look, it's your favourite colours! Your favourite design! And all your paintings, which my Papa wanted to get rid of, are on display!" | |
| Frankfurt |
"How do you like it? Are you happy? Are you pleased with it?" | |
| Guernica |
"............" | |
| Frankfurt |
"If Fran gives you that one, will you love Fran again...?" | |
| Guernica |
"Fran, Milady." | |
| Frankfurt |
"So-sorry, that you still don't like it. Fran, is not used to giving gifts and stuff." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Besides, Fran has done terrible things to you over the years." | |
| Frankfurt |
"You loved me." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Broken Fran couldn't see that love as love anymore, so she didn't accept it. She kept you away from her, hurt you, and finally left you to die." | |
| Frankfurt |
"By the time she realised that Papa had sent you to your death, it was too late. She panicked and chased after him like crazy, but she couldn't find you――" | |
| Frankfurt |
"That's why. You were thought to be dead for sure... But Fran didn't want to believe it, so she built that Guernica Tower for you." | |
| Guernica |
"Don't give a curious building a curious name." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Ugh! Sorry, you don't like it? If you don't like the name, we'll fix it! If it's an eyesore! We'll demolish it!" | |
| Frankfurt |
"So Guernica, please, forgive Fran." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Fran loves you. You were always kind and warm, just like Mama." | |
| Guernica |
"It is I who should apologise, Milady Fran." | |
| Guernica |
"I am sorry, I am sorry... I am your maid and you called me Mama, but I didn't give you what you wanted." | |
| Frankfurt |
"No, Guernica, You gave lots and lots." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Earlier, you also said that you really hated Fran." | |
| Frankfurt |
"No. Maybe all your actions this time ―― You did it for the sake of Fran, who gets pleasure from being treated badly?" | |
| Frankfurt |
"You were trying your best to give Fran what she wanted." | |
| Frankfurt |
"You are a kind person who doesn't deserve a tirade." | |
| Guernica |
"Milady Fran, you have seen through me who was not mature enough." | |
| Guernica |
"I am sorry. I'm trying my best. After all, I just can't do anything terrible to you in the end." | |
| Guernica |
"I can only speak out of turn and I can't physically hurt you." | |
| Guernica |
"Because. I love you, Milady Fran." | |
| Guernica |
"Little, sweet, Milady Fran." | |
| Guernica |
"My, my treasure." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Guernica――" | |
| Guernica |
"”One-Shot Reversal Cannon„, I was afraid that it would change you, the beautiful one, so I made an effort not to let it affect you alone." | |
| Guernica |
"It seems that even extra people were spared from its effects because of that. Afterwards, we even threatened you on air to leave this dangerous area as soon as possible." | |
| Guernica |
"You did not run away, did you, Milady Fran?" | |
| Frankfurt |
"Of course not, Fran was in the business of saving the world now. Already used to danger and fear by now." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Fran is no longer the helpless child you know. She's a Train Knight in the SSS, fighting against the Phantom Mist on the front lines." | |
| Frankfurt |
"As such, Fran's job is to protect everyone." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Guernica. This time, this time Fran will protect you." | |
| Guernica |
"Hmhmhmm. Then the positions are reversed――" | |
| Just when Guernica mumbled something funny, the roar of a demon echoed from up close. | ||
| Frankfurt |
"That-that was......!" | |
| Frankfurt looked around in panic. However, the smoke, dust and thick Phantom Mist from the fire caused by the explosion of the gunpowder barrels earlier obscured her vision. | ||
| Guernica |
"Perhaps it was the cry of the Phantom Mist Weapon ”One-Shot Reversal Cannon„." | |
| Guernica |
"I was controlling it with a special device. I was knocked out, so I lost control of it――" | |
| Guernica |
"Please get away quickly, Lady Fran. I call it a weapon, but the ”One-Shot Reversal Cannon„ is a violent monster itself." | |
| Guernica |
"I wanted to please you. I never wanted to send you to your death――" | |
| Frankfurt |
"I understand, Guernica." | |
| Frankfurt |
"Besides. It's okay, Fran is stronger now." | |
| Frankfurt |
"And. Fran now has a very reliable group of friends." | |
