Chapter 81: Sakagami Kazuhito 10
Kazuhito: Haa // Haa // Haa // Haa // Haa… // Haa… // Haa… // Haa…
Page 2:
Rani: The Thesis of the Still Heart program // has been successfully installed.
Kazuhito: Phew… // I see.
Rin: … // …Sakagami-kun. // You really find your Servant hard to deal with, don’t you?
Kazuhito: ? // Hard to deal with?
Rin: You really don’t want to save her, so much so that it makes you throw up, right? // But you still can’t bring yourself to abandon your own Servant. // Well, // if you can bring her back to help us defeat Kazuradrop, I have no complaints either way.
Page 3:
Kazuhito: …
Tamamo: Rin-san, // you’ve got it backwards.
Rin&Kazuhito: Backwards?
Rin: Which part?
Tamamo: … // It can’t be helped. // Master, // Sakagami-san. // Come over here. // Let’s have a nice secret chat in the corner.
Rin: Wha… // What’re you doing?
Tamamo: I’m just trying not to talk about people’s weakness (ruby: SG) in front of others. // Think of it as the compassion of a considerate fox. // Having my Master listen in is just a necessary price of that.
Hakuno: I don’t really get it, but if it’s something you don’t want others to hear, shall I leave?
Page 4:
Tamamo: Master, if Sakagami-san and I // had a secret chitchat in the corner of the room by ourselves, can you really say you wouldn’t feel jealous?
Hakuno: … // I’d be jealous! // Really jealous!
Kazuhito: What happened to the old Kishinami who told me through eye contact that we both have it rough?
Rin: …I’d prefer if we shared all information with each other, // but if Caster is going out of her way like this, there must be a reason…right?
Leo: However, // it’s impossible not to be curious when they’re whispering like that right in front of us.
Gawain: I apologize, Leo. // I tried picking up their conversation, but she seems to have put up an anti-eavesdropping barrier.
Leo: What a shame. // She’s terrifyingly cautious.
Rin: Personally, I find you two far more terrifying.
Rin (thought): Backwards, huh…
Page 5:
Tamamo: I feel bad about advising Sakagami-san like this, // but I’m the only one here who understands your circumstances.
Tamamo (thought): Suzuka-san will just have to put up with it for now.
Kazuhito: I…understand myself, at least… // It’s just like Tohsaka said. // I… // have trouble dealing with Saber… // Yeah… // That’s right…there’s no mistake about it. // I’ve always been fed up with her selfish attitude.
Tamamo: “I can’t run away.” // “I can’t have fun.” // “I can’t let myself have fun.” // —That’s what you’re always thinking, right?
Kazuhito: …!
Page 6:
Tamamo: Think back very carefully // about why you’ve tried to push Suzuka-san away until now. // And why you can’t stop shaking right now. // If you’re going to face Suzuka-san head-on—
Hakuno: Ah, // I think I kinda get it. // For me, facing my Servant // meant facing myself.
Page 7:
Hakuno: That’s why you said you would face Saber // not as her “Master”, but as “Sakagami Kazuhito”. // Because you must start by truly understanding yourself. // Right? // Tamamo seemed to be having trouble giving advice, // so I summed it up in my own way, but did I get it right?
Tamamo (thought): —Yes. // We’re accomplices (ruby: partners) after all! // I do what Master can’t, // and Master does what I can’t…!
Tamamo: What an incredibly stylish relationship we have—!
Hakuno: Wh…What?
Page 8:
Kazuhito: Hey, your nose is bleeding…
Hakuno: Ah. // Don’t worry, it’s just poison.
Kazuhito: Just poison!?
Hakuno: This is something precious I obtained // as a result of facing Tamamo.
Kazuhito: I see—I don’t get the details, // but basically, you’re being dragged around by your Servant as usual, right?
Hakuno: Muh. // That’s true, but I’m going to drag her around too from now on.
Tamamo: !?
Page 9:
Violet: This is my compassion as a former colleague. // As long as you don’t try anything, I won’t let a hand on you.
Jinako: T-Traitor…! // What’re planning to do to me!?
Violet: I just said I don’t plan to do anything to you, didn’t I? // Did I not convey it properly?
Jinako: I never thought Karna-san would be that incompetent…
Violet: That Heroic Spirit gave his all, you know? // Ah, but his communication ability was certainly lacking.
Jinako: Just like I thought… // I knew he was the type to leave out the important part when he talks.
Karna (thought): Am I so bad that I come up as a common topic in conversation…?
Violet: —I heard that you saw the battle between Kishinami Hakuno and Sakagami Kazuhito // as a representation of your own fate.
Page 10:
Jinako: Wh… // Who would ever…
Violet: Breaking through the Venus Statue… // will be the final battle on this floor. // I will wait until it’s over to see // what decision you come to. // If you choose to fight with us, that’s fine. // If you choose to oppose us—
Jinako: ! // …I see. // Vio-san is just like Kishinami-san… // You just want Karna-san’s help, not mine.
