Surprised by the sudden question, I reach back into my memory, but I don’t recognize him&h

Surprised by the sudden question, I reach back into my memory, but I don’t recognize him…He hands over me something like that —“—··· I hope to see you again.”CHAPTER 02The man with crimson eyes “…Have we ever met somewhere?”Surprised by the sudden question, I reach back into my memory, but…MC “…I don’t think we ever met, probably…”MC “Because I just came to this place a month ago…”(…At any rate, it just doesn’t seem that I’ve forgotten. I think I’ll never forget such a beautiful person if I ever meet one.)The man with crimson eyes “Really…?”MC “…? Yes…Ah!”When I *get a hold of myself, I notice that there’s a wagon with flowers is placed beside the person.(*領き返し - 領 means territory, reign, possession, something you acquired, get hold and owned, while 返し means return, put back and restore. It’s still in hesitation, but I put my own mixture and analyzation that the sentence means ‘something that you possessed being returned and restored’, hence getting hold of herself. But if other readers have better explanation, or perhaps better translation, drop in the comments or DM, alright?The flowers are unprotected and exposed to the snow, dyeing the petals white.(That’s not good…!)MC “If we let them get hit by snow as it is, the flowers might be ruined, you know? Let’s carry it over there!”I put my hands on the wagon and run towards the eaves of the confectionery in the snow.(…They won’t get hit by the snow here, right?)MC “…I’m glad they are all right. It would be sad if such beautiful flowers wither.”The man with crimson eyes “…”The moment I feel relieved, I realized the person is staring intently at me, as if to probe into my heart.MC “…I’m sorry. Did I do something unnecessary…”Then, the person in front of me gently shakes his head.The man with crimson eyes “No…thank you.”After saying that, he suddenly turns his crimson eyes towards the flowers in the wagon, and touches the flowers with beautiful gesture.And then, the person makes a bouquet of colorful flowers in a blink of time, as if he’s using magic.The man with crimson eyes “Hmm, this is fine. If it’s this big, it should fit in your arms.”The man with crimson eyes “Here, as thanks for your help.”A big bouquet gently jumps into my chest.MC “…I can’t afford to receive such a big bouquet. I didn’t do much…”The man with crimson eyes “Just accept it.”The person untied his pursed lips and smiles sweet enough to captivate me instantly.The man with crimson eyes “Since I was so happy.”The man with crimson eyes “Well then, I’ll go with this.” With a delightful smile, the person puts his hand on an empty wagon and starts walking through the snow.MC “Excuse me…”When the person stops walking, he looks up at the sky again…and draws an arc on his thin lips.The man with crimson eyes “Oh…the snow will stop soon.”(Huh…?)Staring at the similar scenery as reflected by the crimson eyes, the snow gradually becomes sparse…Then, the snow stops.(…It was a sudden snowfall.)As I look up at the sky, leaving behind only the signs of snow, a clear voice flows into my ears.The man with crimson eyes “—··· I hope to see you again.”When I look back in a sudden, there is no one there anymore, I feel like I’m dreaming while it was snowing…(He was a beautiful person…)(Somehow it seems that he’s a human, but sort of like not human too…he was such a person. Even so —)I wonder why did he look at me as if we had met before?(…Have we ever met somewhere after all?)While I’m thinking about it, I heard footsteps right next to me.Leonardo “I’m sorry to have kept you keep waiting, Mimi. Huh…? What’s with that big bouquet?”Leonardo “Leonardo-san! To tell you the truth, just now —” ***Leonardo-san grunts and stifles his laughter as I tell him the whole story of what happened while it was snowing.Leonardo “I think he was happy with your kindness. …Hmm?”Leonardo’s fingertips touch the light blue petals that bloom quietly among various kinds of flowers.Leonardo “Forget-me-not flowers shouldn’t bloom in such a cold winter. Is he growing them in a greenhouse? Or.”Leonardo “—*Off-season flowering, huh.”(*狂い咲き - 狂い means insanity, madness and crazy while 咲き means to bloom. Literally it means a crazy flower that’s blooming out of orderShakespeare sets foot into an old castle and finds the lord of the castle in a beautiful garden.Vlad “···— ···”Wearing a coat that’s darker than the night, the figure that’s gazing on the flowers illuminated by the moon is so beautiful that you leave it as it is. Slowly approaching, Shakespeare stands next to Vlad and opens his lips.Shakespeare “My lord, is there anything good happened to you?”Vlad “Yeah, something really nice.”Nevertheless…as he mutters, the pair of eyes with different colors directed his gaze towards the flowers that are blooming in the flower bed.Shakespeare “Forget-me-nots shouldn’t bloom in this season, and this flower too. …Ah, this flower too.”Shakespeare “How on earth are you growing them…?”Vlad “Rather than that sort of thing, it’s rare for you to come here, Will. Don’t you have something to talk about?”Shakespeare “…”Shakespeare’s expression becomes stiff when a straight gaze is directed towards him.After a seemingly eternal silence, a faint shaking voice echoes through the night.Shakespeare “In search for tragic real experiences for my creation, on that day I left the mansion…I joined hands with you.”Shakespeare “I’m in pursuit of tragedy, while you’re trying to revive the great men for your ambition. Our interests were aligned.”Shakespeare “My heart was certainly moved by the person you revived for your experiment.”Vlad “…”Shakespeare “But things like disregarding lives and treating them with disdain, I just can’t accept it no matter what.”Shakespeare “…I understand that it’s a selfish excuse, but I don’t want to get my hands dirty anymore —“Vlad “Hey, Will.”Shakespeare “…?”Vlad “Do you know why forget-me-nots came to be called by this name?”Although confused by the sudden question, Shakespeare easily/leisurely repeats the words.Shakespeare “Knight Rudolph tried to pick flowers that bloom on the river quay for his lover, but…he accidentally fell into the river.”Shakespeare “I know it got its name from the anecdote that was left behind saying [Don’t forget me] at that time.”Vlad “Yes, that’s correct. As one would expect, a rare playwright has an extensive knowledge.”Vlad “I think, the great men in the Count’s mansion look a lot like this flower.”Vlad “Although their lives have ended once, they were afraid that their existences would disappear from this world.”Vlad “That straightforward obsession so far as cruel and abnormal has brought them back to life again. Hey, Will.”Shakespeare “…Yes.”Vlad “They will surely be the cornerstone to grant this heartful ambition. That’s why I have to choose.”Vlad “—··· A strong person to help me, right? I thought you understand what I wanted to do.”His voice is calm like a calm sea, but the air Vlad’s cladded in is too sharp and ferocious…,But Shakespeare raises his voice to encourage himself.Shakespeare “I can’t dance in your palm anymore, but I’m the first one who took your hand.”Shakespeare “If you want to kill me, do it then. Since for you…I’m an unnecessary flower.”Vlad’s hands extend towards Shakespeare’s neck.Shakespeare “— !”But, the beautiful hands on his small neck move away on a whim.Shakespeare “…Why…”Vlad “’Cause it seems like a severe punishment for Will is to continue living and suffering. See you then, Will.”When Shakespeare’s figure disappears, the footsteps of Charles and Faust echo in replace.Faust “Is it fine to overlook the playwright easily, Your Excellency? It seems to me that the treatment is very sweet…”Charles “Lord Vlad has Lord Vlad’s own *consideration. Isn’t that right, Ōsama?”(*考え - thought, idea, intention, expectationResponds with only a smile, Vlad turns his beautiful crimson eyes towards the night sky.Vlad “The world is still beautiful today. That’s why I can’t give up this ambition in my heart.”Vlad “We still have a long way to go, but…I’m sure it will be done.”Charles & Faust “…”Without minding both of them who are becoming speechless at the profile with appalling madness in his beauty, Vlad straightly crouches down on the spot and watches forget-me-not flowers intently.Vlad “Don’t forget me, huh. Did that girl forget about me?”Vlad “We met on a distant snowy day…”Charles & Faust “…?”Vlad “I hope we can meet again. Fuaa~…”Charles “Eh, Ōsama?”Charles “…He falls asleep.”Faust “Sleeping in a place this, after muttering an incomprehensible monologue.”Faust “Truly a selfish old man. Shall, I’m going back.”Charles “Eh, let’s carry him, Doc.”Faust “If you leave him alone, it seems that he’ll wake up soon.”Charles “Eh? People would usually die if we leave them behind in this cold winter.”Faust “Your Excellency is unusual, so there’s no problem.”Charles “But, he’ll catch a cold, right?”Faust “Haa~ He’s really such a troublesome old man.”The profile of Shakespeare who’s leaving the castle is as lifeless as a doll.As he looks up at the night sky with dark eyes, the moon, which is about to transform into a full moon, comes into view and brings back a certain memory.A month ago, a woman who appeared in front of him in what sort of fate, was an ordinary human without any talents. Vlad doesn’t need that kind of person…he thought so, and didn’t give any information about Mimi. — That’s to say, he put up a façade.Somehow she felt like a factor that could change this chaotic situation, for better or worse.He felt that even God didn’t know if Mimi’s fate and that beautiful person would cross.Shakespeare “What can I do right now is keeping an eye on what’s about to occur after this, and if anything happens, I’ll *firsthand —” (*身を以て - with one’s own body/action/experience Every time I went to the city from that snowy day, my eyes came to search for that person who looked like a snow spirit.However — (…Isn’t it hard to find him in this big city?)(If only I asked for his name at least, I could get a clue to search for him.)I want to convey a proper gratitude for giving me an armful of flowers.Also…I can’t put it well into words, but I wish to meet that person again, truly from my heart.MC “I don’t know when, but…I want to see you again.“As I mutter alone, I could smell something like floating spring mixed in the winter air.When I follow the scent that gives color to the cold winter — The man with crimson eyes “…”The person is beside the wagon with plenty of flowers, as if he’s bringing along the spring.(…At last, I met him.)As I approach him, his crimson eyes slowly catch me — The man with crimson eyes “I found you ‘again’, after all.” -- source link
