Tower of God 3 - 134 Translations Narrator: Before the battle of the Nest. [Lo Po Bia Mothership] Traumerei: It's been a while, Zahard. // It's Gustang, isn't it? Zahard: Yes. Traumerei: I heard the gist of it. // I heard he said there will be a divide. Zahard: That's a declaration of war. /// I heard from reports he's collecting the core of his troops at his mothership. /// It seems that Gustang thinks the Irregular that entered the Tower will be someone special like us. /// Traumerei, what do you think? Traumerei: ... I don't know. // But the moment I learned of the existence of that boy, my nightmares started again. /// I want to test him. /// But if you don't like that, Zahard... Zahard: No. // Test him. /// But Traumerei, // I would prefer it if this doesn't end up becoming a conflict between the Zahard and the Po Bidau family. Then again, this incident is too big to move the Khun Family, Arie Family, or the Ha Family over for... Traumerei: Got it. /// My family will face the Po Bidau family. // That's what you wanted, right? /// But I do have one condition. Zahard: Condition? LPBT: I want to see the Irregular for myself. /// I want to test the Irregular // and if I can verify he really does have potential to become a being like us- Zahard: If you verify? Traumerei: I will take that Irregular- /// and use him for war against Gustang. /// I will wed him with the most fitting member of my family, // Make him my successor, /// And I will use him as a Thorn that isn't pointed against you but against him. /// That is my way. Zahard: Sure. Do as you please. /// But tell me more about your nightmares. // Do you still not remember? Traumerei: I can't. // I know it's a nightmare, but when I wake up, I can't remember the details. /// It's definitely a memory completely I fed to Leviathan, /// I wonder why they're resurfacing and making things difficult for me. /// I just don't know... /// What kind of a memory is it // that I'm suffering like this from it? Season 3 - Declaration of War [The Prison where Khun and others are in.] Khun: ... You're out here again. Hwaryun: You're here again? // Did someone come to see you or something? /// Did you actually have any contact on the Po Bidau side? Khun: I saw Rachel. Hwaryun: ... Ah... // Why is she here? Khun: I don't know. // It seems she found herself a pretty reliable sponsor here. /// She offered to get me out of here. /// What about the others? Hwaryun: Of course stuck in their rooms. // In this prison, the people in each cell can come out in rotations three hours a day // just 30 minutes, alone, in to the living room. Khun: ... I don't know what sorcery you're using, but you seem to be out here whenever you want. Hwaryun: Well, I am a guide. /// So why is Rachel offering to free you? Khun: I don't know. She's not telling me anything, just offering to let me go. // I don't know what she's thinking... /// I'll have to get out to find out. Hwaryun: Isn't that a good thing? // Once you get out, isn't it easy for you to deal with her? Khun: ... No. For some reason, // I got a bad feeling about this. [The Next Day] Khun: He's glaring at me so hard // His glare might break through those glasses. Po Bidau Bellerir: Hey kitty! /// Congrats on being a free man now! /// Now, shall we get going? Khun: I really was freed. // Looks like this nut job's got some connections. Rachel: Where should we go during the down time? Po Bidau Bellerir: Hmm... Well, we should get him dressed up. // Get him some perfume. /// He needs to look the part. Rachel: Alright then. Let's go to the shop first. Khun: Hmm? /// "No War?" /// (Graffiti artists drawing on the wall) /// Is the war Asensio was talking real? // Looks like the news is all over the mothership.... /// Of course they would be afraid, if they're hearing about the breakout of a war of a size they never experienced. /// Even for a family head, this would be pretty difficult to deal with... [The Suits Ship] Rachel: Woah...! /// What do you think? Po Bidau Bellerir: Perfect! /// The clean look really suits him. Khun: What are they playing at here... [Outskirts of the Po Bidau Mothership /// A mansion of a family upper class member.] Khun: This looks like the house of some bigwig /// Why bring me here? // You even bought me a tux for the occasion. /// Shouldn't you guys tell me what's going on now? Po Bidau Bellerir: It's a Book Recital Khun: What? Po Bidau Bellerir: You'll be reciting a book here tonight. Po Bidau Bellerir: Right now it's the Book recital season, so those who want to read a book but doesn't want to themselves // get handsome guys like you to recite a book in fancy mansions like this. // It's something those in the family with a lot of Suspendium to throw around like to do. Khun: The Po Bidau Family Book recitals I know isn't known for being this fancy. // Held at a place free of distractions where one can clear their mind and focus on the book, // isn't that what the recitals are supposed to be like? Po Bidau Bellerir: That's why you get Book Recitals like these too. // Since there's boring rules like that in place, people end up wanting to break those rules. // Also, this recital is fun for another reason. // The book you'll be reciting today, at least in our family, /// Is a banned book. Khun: What...? Khun: What's this...? All these people are in masks... // Is this like a masquerade or something? /// And you want me to read this book to them? /// The book is about... /// Prince of Zahard...? // ...Icarus. /// This is... (Khun slams the book.) Khun: Hey, you nasty boomers. Random Po Bidau lady: Oh my! How dashing and bold! Khun: Sorry to say /// I can't read this disgusting delusional drivel. /// So if you really want to read this stuff, why don't you find a dark corner at read it yourselves. /// Who do you think I am, trying to get me to read this nonsense. /// Rachel!! (A distinct lack of Rachel) Khun: ... Huh? /// She's not here?! /// Could it be...?! Extra1: Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!! Extra2: They're here!! /// Everyone put your hands up where we can see them!! /// This is the Public Order Task Force!! Khun: What!? Extra2: This is an unauthorized Book Recital!! /// Arrest them all!! Khun: This... this is a trap!! Extra2: Get them!! Khun: Damn it. // If I get mistaken as the reader for a book like that // even as a member of the 10 families, I'll be done for!! Extra2: Get them!! Khun: Rachel!! // You sly bitch!! [The next day // In the Po Bidau Family mothership // Public Order Task Force Prison] ???: The name's Khun Aguero Agnis. Khun: Damn it... ???: He brought out a forbidden book from his light house // held a secret book recital where he would recite a forbidden book, saw the POTF /// Tried to run before getting caught. Khun: I had a feeling Rachel released me only to fuck with me, // but I didn't know this was the direction she would have taken. ???: Continues to deny that he brought the forbidden book. Khun: This is trouble... // Even if I'm a member of the 10 families, if I get framed for reading that crazy banned book /// I could get executed. ???: Any objections to what I have so far? Khun: I've been keep telling you!! I'm not the one who brought the forbidden book!! // It was already there when I got there!! ???2: Hard at work I see! Po Bidau Bellerir: What do you think? // Just as I told you, right? Khun: YOU!! Po Bidau Bellerir: I told you once we released him he'd show his true colors. Khun: What? Po Bidau Bellerir: I'd made a proposal, you see. Let's release you first and see what kind of a person you are. /// We have very little information on what kind of people you are other than the fact that you were brought over from the Lo Po Bia by the our Family Head. // I thought you had some reason why you would seek an audience with him. // Right on the dot. /// You brought a banned book into our mothership... Khun: This bastard... Po Bidau Bellerir: Is that what you wanted to approach our family head for? How bold. /// The rest of the Lo Po Bia family lackeys from the warp ship, they're in on this too, aren't they? Khun: They're not just here to fuck me over. // They want to use me, someone that came over from the Lo Po Bia Mothership // to create an animosity against the Lo Po Bia family...! Po Bidau Bellerir: Make sure to pass along the book to the Family Head as well. ???: Yes sir. Po Bidau Bellerir: Those Lo Po Bia are out of their minds... Khun: So they could justify this war...! [A few days later] Rachel: After all I went through for you, you still ended up in prison again. Khun: Rachel..!! Rachel: You've been questioned for a few days now, but I hear you haven't said anything after the first day. /// If you really are innocent, you'd say something, no? Khun: Why should I? // They only asked the formalities, didn't torture or threaten anything. They just have me sit here all they and then send me to my room. /// The food here's great too. /// Since they already have a conclusion, and this is just a formality. Why should I bother clamoring I'm innocent, laying out all of my information? /// It's their family head that brought us here in the first place // If it's the family head that allowed you guys to pull this // There's nothing I can do anyway, right? Rachel: You know well. Khun: Why me? // Sorry to say, but I'm not really related to the Lo Po Bia family, and I'm a child abandoned by the Khun Family. // It's pointless to use someone like me for this kind of a job. Rachel: "Why me" you ask... // Aren't you just being full of yourself? Khun: What? Rachel: I pulled this last minute just to mess with you. // Even if it wasn't you, we would have had someone sitting there anyway. // You really are full of self love, aren't you? /// This is all just for show. Just some literary set up for a future book recital. // Since you ended up coming over here from the Lo Po Bia family // You were the one who ended up in that seat. // There's no specific reason why it had to be you. Khun: SO what's with the book? // A prince of Zahard... And the ten families. // It didn't look made up last minute. // The sentences were refined and detailed. /// Did you find that book? Rachel: Beats me. // A prince of Zahard, like that exists... // Must be nonsense. // Any other questions? Khun: How did you get in here? Rachel: It was all a coincidence. Somehow I met the family head here, and after that I was introduced to the vice commander of the ship, and I've been helping him since. Khun: Helping him start a war? Rachel: I'm not that that great of a person, but maybe close? // And since I'm answering your questions, let me ask you one too. Rachel: Where is Baam? /// I heard he disappeared after the Battle of the Nest. Khun: I don't know. // I know he's alive, so don't worry about that. // But I really don't know. Rachel: You're all talk except when it matters. // Well, anyway. The word about you reciting a forbidden book's now spread across the mothership. // Since a Warpship came over from the Lo Po Bia family at perfect timing // The family head doesn't have a reason to particularly care about the public opinion // but at least he wants a war that his people will support. // The mood is set, and he will soon personally hold a book recital. // He canceled the last one out of the blue, so they're only starting it up again now. // Anyway, in that important book recital where the family head is going to read a book personally, // The family head, as everyone in the Mothership is watching // Will declare total war against the Lo Po Bia family. // an official declaration of war. Khun: ... Declaration of War! // Are we really having a war between the Ten Families?
