apparently ibaraki asked us to go to babylon. she said there's an old smell, one that she cannot ignore
we wonder why she was so insistent here, and then said
>did she find a makaron tree or what?
>did she find a chocolate spring or what?
Ibaraki: "I-I HEARD AND CANT IGNORE THAT! YOU MEAN TO SAY SUCH A THING EXIST IN THIS AGE!!?"
>Uruk's specialty, yo
Ibaraki: "WHERE, WHERE IS IT!? TELL ME AT ONCE, HUMAN! WE SHALL HEAD THERE IMMEDIATELY! EVEN IF IT'S IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION!
Muu, truly, simply remembering it already bring forth such sweetness to my tongue! It is such a good thing. Among the demons, such a taste simply cant be found.
Therefore, I understand that it is a scarce thing to find. That is why I limited myself by no more than 1 per day.
HOWEVER! If it comes from a natural source, that is to say, if it's an inexhaustible resource, surely it means I can secure any number of it I desire?
KUHAHAHA! Quite an achievement, Master. For you to hold an information of such a treasure that managed to excite even this Ibaraki!
>Oh, Im just joking about it.
Ibaraki : ".................................
...................................
...................................
ARE YOU AN DEMON!!!?"
*change scene*
Mountain forest. Ibaraki remembers how this forest has nothing but them magic beast stuffs, and of course she's the one at the top of it.
Roman talks a bit of how Ibaraki is a pure demonkin, something whose purpose may not be totally understandable, with how she totes rampage around before.
Oh, also saying that maybe because Mad Enhancement is like a special trait of the 鬼 guys to begin with, is why she is the type of Berserker that can speak normally. (WAIT THIS IS A BIG THING ISNT IT)
Anyway ROmani said he's glad they are getting along better than expected. Ibaraki disagree.
"Do not adorn yourself in foolishness, Omyouji. I am a demon. He is a human. There is no "getting along" here.
This guy here is... yes... he is gazing upon me with awe and fear! He is a sorrowful brat, his body shaking and teeth clattering, and I am the ruler of terror! That's what our relationship is."
>(The more you got ragged the cuter you get but yeah) you're scary.
"Mm, indeed, indeed! No other possibility!
I can see that lukewarm eye, that cramped half smile on that foolish face, truly the mark of fear itself!"
Then Ibaraki said to Roman to not observe her as if she is a spectacle too much. ROman said his statement indeed has no delicacy, and he apologized. Oh also he's a physician not omyouji.
Ibaraki then wonder if demons are really that rare of a spectacle, even if there was a time where you can look at a bunchload of them in the Ooeyama.
Ibaraki describes Ooyama. Bunch of demons bundled together. THere was a palace. Scary one, not puny humane ones. Bunch of demon friends. Happy bandit life in the mountain. It makes her blood boil remembering those days!
Roman understands now. Ibaraki gathered all the rampaging freely demons and made 1 group out of it. Alone, the humans will bring them down them one by one. Thats why she did a humanlike act, of creating a group. You can say that's a foresight level wasted on a demonkin.
Ibaraki then said about Shuten is the one reigning them (i didnt get this part clearly). Roman said indeed Shuten is also a special case, and wonder if she can be called demonkin to begin with.
Roman also wonder why Shuten isnt with her this time. Ibaraki said no need to bother her, lets get this done before she wakes up. Roman got a bad hunch...
We met a monster with servant reaction but not really, probably a residue.
Ibaraki: "Hmph. I can smell it. You stink. You stink of demon, female warrior!"
something2 about fire burning out in the surroundings, flames not unlike that of Ibaraki (this part was difficult to comprehend for me)
WAIT ITS FUCKING TOMOE GOZEN
Ibaraki : "Do you know? Demons are the culmination of living with stains. 然も有なん、というやつだ. (need help for this one)"
Roman : "You mean to say Tomoe Gozen is a demon!?"
Ibaraki: "From the smell quality, she is not. More like a descendant of one, or something like that. Probably have thicker blood compared to that Fuuma brat."
Tomoe has no will, only rampaging wildly, and for some reason Ibaraki said something about the power level of eating a Belgium Waffle? ....maybe a misread. Anyway, she be burning everybody, herself and anyone else. Ibaraki said in the end this here is just a fake demon. SOmething like a burning residue? Mashu asked if Ibaraki knew aboutthis all along. Ibaraki said no, she just want to get rid of the source before the stink reaches Shuten. She doesnt care who or what is the source. Romani askes if she doesnt feel a kinship with the demon descendant Tomoe. Iba said the real person aside, this one here is not. How would a human feel if he is in her position, finding a really stink corpse of another human, one that is rampaging around without a care?
Mashu said she understands if its put that way. Even if it was Tomoe who helped the Uruk Battlefornt, at the mo it is simply a threath. Tomoe then growls, and Ibaraki remarks how she also caught scent of her, panning to eat her to restore her own flesh.
"Then I, a demon, declare so! Oh wretched, miserable, shameful one! Know your place. The one you wish to devour is I! I am Ibaraki Douji------the one who smear fear and atrocity ot the Heian Capital, the ringleader of the demons of Oeyama!"
fight scene
Tomoe murmur that ibaraki finally come back. But our Iba is not Babylon Iba, so she just go ???. We also seem to glimpsed Tomoe last moment vs that Gibraltior guy.
Ibaraki said in the end, it wasnt fun or anything. Shuten shouldnt be bothered with petty things like this. But Mashu whispered to us how Ibaraki seemed lonely, after all.
Roman said weird shit in Uruk happening even after restoration probs because the maryoku concentration. Anyway, he said lets go back,but Ibaraki said no. She had someplace to go, and we will accompany her. Or be dragged as we accompany her.
>Y-You demon!
Ibaraki: "Mm? What was that? What was that just now? I didnt hear it too well, said it again!
Kuhahaha! As expected of me, a splendid demon worthy of fear! It is fine, shed your tear! Scream! Cry!"
anw no reason to help her since she was the reason we get to rid of the menace, plus in this age leacing things as is is p dangerous, there could be a second zombie spirit agian
mashu also said it was quite refreshing seeing Ibaraki as a ringleader of demons, and she wants to see it again
Anw we go to uruk. Its already p lively, either thanks to the people or the humanity correction. Ibaraki said its nice bustling town and nice bustling riches to be plundered and a nice spot to rampage around.
Mashu: "um...Ibaraki-san?"
Ibaraki: "Just a jest. This place is different from the Heian capital. The other demons and Shuten arent here, for one."
Romani: (So if they ARE here, youre gonna go crazy....)
Anyway we go on, to a small street... and ended up infront of the Ziggurat. Ibaraki said she can smell it from the inside. ROmani cant believe for another menacing spirit to be inside the royale palace.
Ibaraki : "Hmm, you seem to misunderstanding something.
Im looking for the treasure room."
Romani : ".................................
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHH!?"
Mashu : "I-Is this the sense of duty of the demons ringleader, or..."
Ibaraki: "...? Yes it is, but demons are creatures that steal and devour to begin with."
Mashu: "B-But you said before you wont attack the capital..."
Ibaraki: "Yes. THe capital. I alone will not suffice for that. But I dont remember ever saying not going to lay my hand on the treasure.
And most of all----
I want to bring some souvenir for Shuten.
A capital like this will definitely have treasure room comparable to the heian Capital.
Shuten's happy face.... a hair ornament that matches her... a kimono that draw out her beauty...
Besides, a capital like this? There's definitely unseen delicious sweets waiting.
...Of course, this too is for Shuten. It would not do if i do not do some poisontasting first, it would not.
Kukukuku......
...I wonder if they have something to wrap them with?"
>Gilgamesh shows up
Romani: "I KNEW IIIT! But wait, isnt he..."
Mash : "Yes, Master, King GIlgamesh is already..."
Roamni: "Is he human, ghost, maybe Servant!? U-umm...?"
Gilgamesh: "Fool! This place is MY city, MY area, MY treasure room.
Were there any animal sniffing around my treasure room and targetting it, of course I will come, be it from my throne or even the realm of the dead!
Even it its a miracle!!"
>This guy sure is a kind of guy who doesnt think too hard about it!
The king really doesnt change....
ANyway, we started making excuse but Gil just go "SILENCE!" and was about to hand us a serious whopping
But then he apparently already knew we helped ending Tomoe's remains.
"In deference to that, I shall allow eighty percent of your rudeness. You may drain the capital. You may also sneak around inside the palace.
BUT I WILL NOT SHOW ANY COMPASSION TO THOSE WHO TRY TO EXPOSE MY TREASURE ROOM! That is no longer being rude, that is already a crime in and of itself! Feel and know my wrath, you fools!"
Ibaraki: "A golden man.... what an unpleasant color. And this pressure... he is no ordinary human...!
Plus, um, there's a feeling i slightly remember, like im just getting this restless feeling.
Like Im really uncomfortable.... I feel like im going to be scolded soon, in front of my esteemed mother in dogeza....??"
>The Ibaraki that King Gilgamesh summoned before....
Gil: "I have yet to forget your crime of running away before the war. The thing about Tomoe and this is completely different."
Gil said punishment time.
Ibaraki: "Uu, uuuu... I dont know, I dont know any of this! I feel like I do, but I dont!"
DESPERATE BATTLE ENSUES
I still remember breaking the gauge turns GilCaster to Archer, making me eat NP to the face.
Ibarraki was really annoyed that Gil is now even more golden than before.
Romani : "But arent you yourself has gold as your main color scheme tho!?"
Iba: "It's more elegant! My kimono was handpicked bymy esteemed mother, it doesnt giltter pointlessly like HIS!"
As a reward for persevering this long, we got a reward. Gil will end this and we get to see his treasure room.
AKA maximum spamming Gate of Babylon in the face.
Ibaraki then seize both us and Mashu, and ran away. Romani said its useless, the Gate of Babylon will fatally pursue us anyway----not?
Romani: "This is---the manifestation of Ibaraki Douji's created skill of Disengage!! The sublimation of anecdote of her managing to evade the demon extermination of the Four Devas, and the anecdote of her cutting off her hands to escape from Watanabe--"
Iba: "Oh shut it Omyouji! Dont say the name of the Minamotos at a time like this, I'll ended up want to kill anybody close!!"
anyway we reishifted back after running away
Gil: "Hmmph. A beast to the end."
Somebody said to King Gil whether she should help catching them. (Wait Siduri is that your silhoutte?) Anyway Gil said leave them be.
"Not looking back for pride, leaving behind everything simply for the sake of staying alvie.
Is it an ugly thing? A wrethced thing? Or is it a beautiful thing?
...I remembered. Thats why I let them go. It is pointless to keep useless pet dog. A beast will ruin itself as a beast should."
Siduri? then said is it ok to not care about the crime of targetting the king's treasury
Gil: "A beast will be a beast. That was akin to a stray dog loitering infrontof my treasury due to smelling the meat insideit.
There is no need to go as far as chasing and killing it in its nest---yet I shall trample them underfoot without mercy should they come again."
*reishift visual*
next is a scene with Shuten welcoming home Ibaraki but i cant for the life of me read Shuten's lingo without headache, but anyway Ibaraki is sorry she didnt bring any souvenir, but Shuten being bored all alone said Ibaraki coming home is the best souvenir.
Shuten: "So, where have you been?"
Iba: "Ku.. Kuhaha, indeed. I may not bring any souvenir, but I can tell you of my glorious deed! Hear it well!
What I did was truly demonic! I brought Master to tears, made the populace tremble in fear, hundreds of them, no, thousands---!"
And then Shuten said she smell the smell of unknown demon on her.
Shuten: "Dont tell me, while im here by my lonesome, you were hanging out with another demon? I might cry if thats the case..."
Ibaraki: "N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-NO I WAS NOT! ABSOLUTELY NOT! There's a reason for this! Listen to me, Shuten!"
Shuten: "*crying sfx*
Ibaraki: "S-SHUUUTEEEEEN!!"
Ibaraki: (Aah, I knew it, Ibaraki's face... relish me the best. My weariness is disappearing....)
