TALES OF THE RAYS: ION’S 3RD SKIT (ENGLISH TRANSLATION)
This is a direct continuation to Sync’s Side.
Since Ion’s side was finally put up on the Rays Wiki, I can actually take a crack at it now. Here is the Ion side of the skit released with the debut of his xMA \ Dual Mystic Arte with Sync. I got the screenshots from 八雲貴大 on YT.
[ SYNC AND ION ARE LEAVING THAT MEETING ]
Ion: How do you think that went, Sync? What did you think of Ix’s gathering? *
どうでしたか、シンク。イクスサロンの感想は。
Sync: It was a waste of time. The end result of thought experiments and harboring delusions is a mental breakdown, isn’t it? That’s what the Necromancer is for.
時間の無駄だね。妄想と思考実験のなれの果ては精神の崩壊ってやつなんじゃない?こういうのは死霊使いの得意分野でしょ。
Ion: Hehe…
フフフ・・・・・・。
Sync: What?
何?
Ion: Jade said something very similar to you. He said: “Don’t you think you should take a break from your bad thoughts and pay attention to where you’re going?”
ジェイドも同じようなことを言っていましたよ。「下手の考え休むに似たり、もっと足下を見た方がいいのではありませんか」って。
Ion: Jade doesn’t have much interest in the humanities.
ジェイドは人文科学には興味がないそうです。
Sync: How about that. Well, I’ve already thought about this plenty while I was falling into the Planet’s Core.
どうだかね。考え尽くして一度深淵にでも落ちたから避けてるんじゃないの。
[ LUKE AND LIBERA ENTER ]
Luke: —What the hell are you guys talking about? The meeting is over and you’re still talking about hard stuff.
――何だよ、お前ら。サロンが終わってもまだ難しい話をしてるのかよ。
Sync: You poor thing. You were made with a degraded brain, it’s natural you find this kind of talk difficult.
可哀想に。お前は脳みそが劣化して生まれたからこの程度の話を難しく感じるんだよ。
Libera: Sync, it’s not good to tell people they’re inferior! Anise said so.
シンク!人に劣化なんて言ったらダメなんだよ。アニスが言ってた。
Sync: Shut up. We’re not people, anyway. We’re replicas.
うるさいな。どうせ相手は人じゃなくてレプリカだ。
Libera: Replicas are people, too. Claire told me that we all share the same heart that thinks peach pie is delicious. Now, apologize to Luke.
レプリカも人なの。クレアが言ってた。ピーチパイのことを美味しいと思う心は同じなんだよ。ほら、ルークに謝るの。
Sync: I told you to shut it. *sighs* Whatever, I’m sorry for telling the truth.
うるさいな。あーあ、本当のことを言って悪かったね。
Libera: Sorry, Luke. Come on, Sync. As a reward, let’s get some sweets from Nevan.
ごめんね、ルーク。さ、シンク。ご褒美にネヴァンからお菓子をもらおう。
[ LIBERA BOUNCES TOWARDS SYNC ]
Sync: I already told you, quit yanking my arm! You’ll dislocate—
だから、腕を引っ張るな!肩が―――
[ SYNC IS DRAGGED OFF SCREEN ]
Luke: …That Sync, he’s the same as ever.
・・・・・・シンクの奴、相変わらずだな。
Ion: I agree… Or, well, I do think that Sync might have changed a little.
そうですね・・・・・・。いえ、でも少し変わったかも知れません。
Luke: You think?
そうか?
Ion: I think that Sync would have refused to even be in the same room as me back in our original world.
元の世界にいた頃のシンクなら、僕と同じ空間にいることすら拒絶したのではないかと思うんです。
Ion: But now, Sync seems to be starting to make compromises with himself.
けれど今のシンクは、少しだけ譲歩してくれているように感じます。
Luke: I guess that’s because we have no reason to be hostile anymore.
今は敵対する必要がないから、とかかな。
Ion: Yes…that might be right.
そう・・・・・・なんでしょうか。
Ion: I don’t know exactly why he’s changed, but I’m glad. I feel like Sync is starting to find more meaning in being himself, rather than just being another one of our original’s replicas.
理由はわかりませんが、嬉しいです。シンクがシンク自身に、被験者イオンのレプリカであるということ以上の意味を見出し始めているような気がして。
Luke: I hope so. I feel like I’m starting to finally feel like I am who I am because of my friends—you and everyone else.
そうだといいな。俺は仲間が―――イオンやみんながいてやっと、俺が俺であるって思えるようになったから。
Ion: Including me? But I haven’t…
僕も、ですか?僕は何も・・・・・・。
Luke: What are you talking about? You’re super important.
何言ってんだよ。イオンはすげえ重要だぜ。
Luke: After all, no matter how many replicas there are of Ion, no matter how many Luke replicas were made, you and I are the only ones who met in the Cheagle Woods.
だってイオンが何人いても、ルークのレプリカが何人いても、チーグルの森で出会ったのは俺とお前だけなんだから。
Ion: !!
Luke: That’s what makes you special.
だからさ、特別なんだ。
Ion: You’re right. You and I are proof of each other’s unique existences. Thank you, Luke!
はい。僕たちはお互い、唯一無二であることの証明者ですね。ありがとう、ルーク!
* NOTE: the actual term Ion uses is “Ix’s salon”, which confused me until I found out that a salon can also be an “informal gathering of artists at a notable figure’s house.”
