Code: Realize 10th Anniversary April Fools Translation!
Hi all! The official Code Realize Twitter released a short story for April fools. Here is an amateur translation :)
1-1
Impey:HEEY! Beloved members of the Impey Gang! I have an important announcement!! Listen up!!
Lupin:Impey, don’t be so annoying. What time do you think it is?
Impey:Non non non. It doesn’t matter what time it is right now! Because! The flame of love I for Cardia-chan burns brightly 24/7, 365 days a year!
Van:I see. Then at this rate it’ll burn to ashes.
Fran:Umm, Impey. What’s the important news?
Impey:Huhuhu. Listen up everyone and prepare to be amazed! Actually…It’s been 10 years since we first met Cardia-chan! There’s going to be a celebration in a far away country to celebrate!
Lupin:What? This is the first time I’ve heard about this.
1-2
Saint:Fufu. It looked like fun to sit and watch but…We don’t have much time so I’ll explain from here. In short, it seems like our dedicated fans will be holding a 10th anniversary event to celebrate the Lupin Gang’s formation. They will be collecting and displaying our portraits, selling special merchandise, and even making altars among other things…
Fran:Is it some kind of summoning magic…?
Van:Ahh I see. So that’s the situation.
Lupin:They’re going through the trouble of holding such an event when we, the leading roles, won’t even be there?
Impey:And that’s why…we have no choice but to rush over there! We can take my Ornithopter!
Fran:Haha, Cardia should come too, so I think an airship would be better to carry this many people.
Saint:Then how about we also prepare gifts to leave at the event venue?
Lupin:Sounds like an event-hijacking by the Lupin Gang. Well then, let’s go say hello to our fans!
2-1
Saint:ーSo, we’ve finally arrived at the venue. Although it’s a bit presumptuous, I prepared my favorite tea leaves.
Fran:Ooh, Count’s favorite tea! That’s definitely delicious…I want to drink some too. Ah, what did everyone else bring?
Impey:Of course! First, the genius engineer Impey will throw himself at the lovely ladi….Woaaahhh!? Hey! Don’t automatically aim your gun at me, Explosive Four Eyes!
Van:Be grateful. It’s my way of showing camaraderie by sending you to the next life in mint condition before you’re arrested for violating the local Nuisance Prevention Ordinance.
Impey:Aha I see! Please remember that this country also has a Firearms and Swords Act!?
2-2
Lupin:Well, let’s stop with the usual shenanigans. This is quite the venue~ The celebratory roses I put in so much effort into stand out.
Fran:So Lupin brought roses. I decided to bring the pudding we made this morning. I hope it makes them happy…
Impey:It has very special wrapping. The Sisi theme adds a finishing touch!
Lupin:So that’s it. I don’t want to touch Van’s, but this is…
2-3
Van:A scone.
Fran:That…It’s quite black, isn’t it?
Van:It’s chocolate.
Saint:Somehow there’s still smoke coming out of it…
Van:Because I baked it.
Impey:Oh…This is a bad ending isn’t it…
Fran:(Whispering) What do we do, Lupin?
Lupin:(Whisper) We’ve got no choice but to get rid of it afterwards.
2-4
Saint:Well then, let’s regroup. Finally, let’s see Impey’s gift.
Van:What is that…? Cardia’s…cardboard cutout?
Impey:Oh, I’m glad you noticed! That is the careful work of a genius engineer! A life-sized cutout of Cardia-chan! Press this button and you’ll hear “Impey, I love you” …
Lupin:Alright, CONFISCATED! Put it in storage!
Impey:AHHH! Impey’s painstakingly crafted masterpiece!?
2-5
Fran:Hahaha….Anyway. Where is the real Cardia? I saw her a while ago…
Lupin:Ahh, if it’s her, I think she’ll be a little late? She said she wanted to wear new clothes for the celebration.
Impey:Ahh, that【Magnificent Thief Lady】? Cardia-chan looked soooo cute! Well, she looks cute in whatever she wears, but this time it’s particularly一
Saint:一Oh my? There’s something quite noisy in the distance.
Van:…Wait. I can see Cardia over there in front of a group.
2-6
Cardia:Ah..! Everyone!
Fran:Eh? Eh? Wait!? Why are you being chased!?
Cardia:I don’t know…When I was walking around, the people around me kept saying things like “This is a high quality cosplay!”, “Can you take a picture with me?”, or just kept calling for me…
Lupin:Damn, I don’t know the reason, but it’s only natural for a thief to run when being chased! Looks like we’ll be running for a while!
Saint:Fufu..In that case, we shall bid you adieu, ladies and gentlemen. Please enjoy the event.

Impey:Slowly, sloowly. Whew, OK OK…
Impey: To prevent this lovely event from turning into a scene from the pits of hell, The Great Engineer Thief Impey has secretly appeared!
Impey:I’ll just change these real quick…
Impey: Van’s once toxic bricks are now “Impey’s handmade scones”! Everyone rest assured and eat up!
※The previous scones were later enjoyed by staff.
