どういうつもりだアーチャー！
What are you planning, Archer!?

貴様のマスターは今　戦う意思を示してない！
Your Master does not intend to fight! [literally should be "Your Master does not show that she intends to fight!"]

何を言う？
What are you saying?
私たちは同じ聖杯を巡る敵同士だ
We're both enemies fighting for the Holy Grail

・・・なるほど
...I see
貴方の言い分ももっともです
Your point holds true

ザッ (zaa)
sound of more fast movement



03_048

だが背後から襲うなど騎士としてあるまじきこと
But attacking from the rear is unbecoming of a knight
恥を知れアーチャー！
Know your shame, Archer!

君は甘いなセイバーよ
You're naive, Saber.  

不用意に敵に背中を晒す愚図相手に騎士道など不要！
Showing chivalry to a foolish opponent who carelessly exposes his back to an enemy is pointless!

ドオッ (doo)
sound of Archer lunging through the air

sound of Archer moving

！！！

タッ (taa)
sound of Saber stepping back

What...! [or "What the...!" depending on which you like]

一度崩れた剣が・・・！？
But the blades were broken!? [literally "The one cracked blades have...!?"]



03_052

どけセイバー
Stand aside, Saber. [or "Move, Saber."]

用があるのはそこのマスターだけだ
My business is only for that Master [or "My quarrel is only with that Master"]

させはしない
I will not
貴様の相手は私だ！
Your opponent is me!

ならば
If that's so

押して通るのみっ！
[Then] I will go through you!

ガアッ
sound of Archer advancing

待ちなさい！
Hold it right there!  [待ちなさい is the imperative command form of "wait."  Actually, you could just put "WAIT!!"  Whatever you feel sufficiently gets the point across]



03_053

バーンッ (baann)
sound of shock

これから衛宮くんと私は共同戦線を張る
From now on Emiya-kun and I are now allies [共同戦線を張る is literally "form a united front"]

だから二人とも剣を収めるのよ！
So sheath your swords, you two!

え・・・！？
Eh...!?



03_054

ザァ・・・ (zaa...)
sound of the wind blowing

どういうことだ凛？
What is the meaning of this, Rin? [or "Rin, what is the meaning of this?"]

・・・衛宮くん
...Emiya-kun
さっき基点は貴方が見つけたって言ったわよね？
You said earlier that you had found the source, right?

あ　ああ
Ah, yeah
って言っても
I said that because
さっきからなんだか学校中甘ったるい匂いがして・・・
Earlier inside the school I kind of noticed a sickly-sweet odor...

それが一番強く漂ってくる方向を辿っていっただけなんだけど
[But] I only followed the direction that smelled the strongest

そう
Yes
素質ってやつかしらね
That's one of your characteristics, isn't it?

貴方は世界の異常に敏感なのよ
You're sensitive to the abnormalities of the world

私にも見破れなかったあの基点がわかるくらいにね
Since I don't have an eye for that I wasn't able to locate the origin [or "realize the source"]

まあ
Well
そういうわけなんだけど
Something like that

わかる？アーチャー
Do you get it, Archer?



03_055

その男の能力を利用しようと言うわけか
About how we should use that guy's abilities?

確かに
Certainly
これだけの規模の結界ならその発生装置たる魔法陣の数も相当なものだろう
If the size of the barriers is like this then the generating magic circles will probably be in proportion [might be "magic circles generated."  not sure]

そのとおりよ
Exactly.
彼の力を借りればそれらの魔法陣を見つけ出すことは容易いわ
If we borrow his abilities then discovering those magic circles will be simple.

そして私の魔術ならそれを片っ端から無力化していくことができる
And with my sorcery we'll be able to make them absolutely powerless [or "useless"]
完全な消去まではできなくともね
That is if we cannot outright eliminate them, right?
[for the above two lines it may be better to switch them and go with something like "And if we cannot outright eliminate them with my sorcery / then we can at least make them absolutely powerless"]

さらにこの忌々しい結界を阻止したいという点で私たちの目的は一致している
Furthermore wanting to stop these annoying [忌々しい can also be "horrible" which probably fits better] barriers is a goal we agree on.  

そこで共闘というわけ
Then that's why we're allies.



03_056

結界の再起動まで数日の猶予しかない
The restart of the barrier will only be delayed a few days

だけど私と衛宮くんとで魔法陣を無力化して回れば時間を稼げるわ
But if me and Emiya-kun can make the magic circles powerless [or "useless" depending on which you used earlier] then we'll be able to gain more time.  

その間にライダー本人かそのマスターを見つけ出して倒せば私たちの勝ちってわけよ
During that time if we can flush Rider's Master out and defeat him then it's our victory.  

何か反論ある？
Are there any objections?

・・・君の決めたことだ
...It's your decision [or "...It's up to you"]

命令とあれば従おう
If they are your orders I will obey.



03_057

よし (yoshi)
Alright

それじゃ衛宮くん
Then, Emiya-kun

ライダーを倒すまで私たちは一時休戦！
Until we defeat Rider, we have a truce!

その間敵に関する情報は共有するものとする
During this time we will share intelligence concerning enemies.

他のサーヴァントと戦闘に及んだ場合も期間内であれば協力すること
And in this period of time if the situation comes to fighting other Servants we will team up.

・・・え！？
...Eh!?

そうね　
That's right
私から言い出したことだし代わりに衛宮くんのこといろいろ面倒みてあげるわ
Since I was the one to propose things and not Emiya-kun I will take care of you in various ways

ちょちょっと遠坂！？
Tohsaka, wa, wait a minute!?



03_058

もちろん賛成してくれるわよね？
Of course you will approve of that, right?

ニコッ (nikoo)
sound of Tohsaka smiling

ぐ・・・ッ (gu...)
sound of Emiya making a fist



03_059

・・・ひとつだけ確認させてほしい
...I just want you to confirm something

なに？
What?

遠坂おまえさっき言ってただろ
Tohsaka, you said this earlier

「マスターの中には勝利のために人の魂をサーヴァントに食わせる奴がいる
"Among the Masters there are those who, for the sake of victory, will have their Servant consume people's souls.
自分もそんなマスターの一人かもしれない」って
Maybe I am one of those Masters, too."

もしそれが本当なら俺はお前とは組めない・・・・・・！！
If that's true then I can't work with you......!!

ほう・・・そうなのか凛？
Oh... is that right, Rin? [or "so that's it?" or "is that true?"]

ーーーッ！！
---!! [again no actual words here]




03_060

この・・・・・・
You......

つかつか (tsukatsuka)
sound of Tohsaka walking up

バカ
IDIOT

ドカッ (dokaa)
sound of Tohsaka stomping

あ痛（いて）ッ
OUCH

んなわけないでしょう？
OF COURSE THAT'S WRONG, OKAY?

「魂食い」なんて言語道断！外道のやることよ！！
"CONSUMING SOULS" IS JUST ABSURD!  IT'S WHAT HERETICS DO!! [外道のやること is literally "heretic's action done"]

・・・・・・・・・ッ

あれはーーーー
That is----
アンタがいつまでもあまっちょろいこと言ってるから一芝居打っただけよ！
You always say such optimistic [or "idealistic"] things so I justtricked you!



03_061

少しは自分の立場をわきまえろってのよ
Understand my position a little [this along with the line at the end of the last page imply that Shirou was getting annoying.  Which he was.]

まったく・・・
Sheesh...

は・・・
Hah...

は・・・はは
Ha...haha

そうだよな
That's right
おれの知ってる遠坂なら・・・そんなこと考えるわけが無い
If it's the Tohsaka I know...she wouldn't think of such things

疑って悪かった
I was wrong for doubting you
やっぱり遠坂は遠坂だった
As expected Tohsaha is Tohsaka [technically it should be "was" since だった - the past tense of だ is used]

その話乗ったよ
The discussion is over

遠坂が一緒ならきっと勝てる・・・！
If I'm with Tohsaka we'll definitely win...! [or "Together we'll definitely win...!" but that drops the Tohsaka in the sentence]



03_062

ーフン！ (-fun!)
-hmph! [it's that tsundere thing]

まあわかればいいわ
Well if you understand then that's okay

それじゃ私は色々準備があるから
Anyway I have various preparations to do so [or "various arrangements to make"]
詳しい話はまたあとでね
We'll talk some more in detail later

行きましょうアーチャー
Let's go, Archer



03_063

驚いたな
I'm amazed
まさかこんなことになるなんて・・・
That things have become like this...

シロウ
Shirou
肩の傷はもう良いのですか？
Is your shoulder [wound] already okay? [wound is in the sentence but just shoulder should be okay]

ああ・・・
Yeah...
もう直ってるみたいだな
Looks like it's already healing

我が身ながら不気味なもんだ
Although my body is uncanny

怪我したこと自体忘れてたよ
I forgot I was injured

でもあの時はセイバーが来てくれなかったら本当に危なかった
But if Saber hadn't come when she did I would have really been in trouble
あらためて礼を言うよ
Thanks again for that

いえ
No
それには及びません
It is nothing.



03_064

むしろ私はシロウに詫びなければいけません
I should be apologizing to you instead.
自宅で待機しろという貴方の指示を私は守らなかった
Your directions were to standby at home and I disobeyed.

なんだそんなこと・・・
Oh, that...

ですが今回のことでシロウも単独行動がいかに危険か理解できたはずです
But this time should be acceptable because of your dangerous actions while alone. 

これからは登校は控え聖杯戦争に専念するべきでは？
From now on shall we stop attending school so that we may focus on the Holy Grail War?

いや・・・それはダメだ
No... that's no good.
俺は遠坂と協力して学校の探索をしなきゃいけないからな
Since I have to work with Tohsaka in searching the school. [you can drop the "Since" if it sounds better]

なにより今はライダーのマスターを探し出すことが最優先だ
Right now discovering who Rider's Master is takes first priority.

わざわざ俺たちの学校に目をつけた奴だ・・・何か手がかりもあるだろう
Especially since he has his eyes on our school... There's probably clues of some sort there too



03_065

大丈夫遠坂が学校にいる間はそばにアーチャーがいるはずだ
I'll be fine.  When Rin's at school Archer will be right next to her.
何かあったらあいつらに頼ればいいさ
I'll rely on them if anything happens.

そうですね
You're right
私も凛は信用できると思います
I think I can also trust Rin.  

ですがアーチャーには気をつけてください
But please be careful of Archer

彼はどうも貴方を付け狙っている節があります
He somehow has the air that he is stalking you about him.  

そうだな
I see

十分気をつけることにするよ
I'll be very careful.



03_066

・・・・・・

なによアーチャー
What is it, Archer?

やっぱり衛宮くんの共闘は不満？
Do you still disapprove of my alliance with Emiya-kun?

いや・・・
No...

気持ちはわかるけど
I understand your feelings but
結界の阻止を最優先に考えればこの共闘はベストの選択よ
If I think stopping the barriers is our first priority then this is the best choice.  

あちらのマスターが足を引っ張ることがなければだがな
But if that Master [referring to Shirou] stands in our way

やけにつっかかるわねぇ
Then we'll turn on him, right?



03_067

さっきのことといい
That thing earlier

あんた衛宮くんに何か恨みでもあるんじゃないの？
Do you have some resentment towards Emiya-kun?

馬鹿を言うな
Don't say such foolishness [or "Don't be foolish" but it literally says "don't say stupid (things)"]
容易い相手だから早めに片付けようと思っただけだ
I just thought that I'd take care of an easy opponent ahead of time

んー
Hm-
私はあのセイバーがそう簡単に勝たせてくれるとは思えないんだけどね・・・
But I don't think Saber would have made winning so simple... [you can drop the "But" at the beginning of the sentence]

ザザザザ・・・ (zazazaza...)
sound of the waves



03_068

私はねアーチャー
Archer, about me

魔術師の名門遠坂家の当主としてこの１０年を過ごしてきた
I've been the head of the notable Tohsaka magi house for 10 years

この冬木の街はその私が魔術協会から管理を任されている土地よ
This Fuyuki City is land whose control has been entrusted to me by the Mage's Association.  [or "Fuyuki City is land whose control the Mage's Association has entrusted to me"]

この場所でどこの馬の骨とも知れない連中に好き勝手やらせるわけにはいかないわ
I can't allow people with unknown origins nor their undiscovered lackeys to do as they please here



03_069

あの結界を断固阻止するーーー
I'm determined to stop those barriers

これは遠坂家当主としての決定でもあるのよ
This is also my decision as the head of the Tohsaka house

うむ (umu)
Yeah

それだけの覚悟があるのならもはや何も言うまい
If you're that resolute [or "resolved"] then I won't say anything

ありがと
Thank you

さてと・・・
Then...

さっそく今夜から動くわよ
From tonight on we'll move without delay

そうだ
Right
言峰にも連絡しておきましょう
I'll also contact Kotomine
仮にも魔術協会から派遣されてきた監督役だもの
Even now he's the administrator of the war dispatched by the Mage's Association [replace administrator with whatever term we're using for that position] [maybe use "He's still" instead of "Even now he's"]

役目はしっかり果たしてもらわなきゃ
He carries out his role seriously



03_070

ーーそうか
--I see
ああ　よく連絡してくれた
Yes, you did well in contacting me

こちらでも監視を強化して対応にあたることにしよう
I will increase surveillance and undertake proper measures

チン・・・ (chin...)
sound of phone being hung up

フ・・・ライダーのマスターめ
Hm...Rider's Master

このような大胆な行動に出るとはな
So this kind of bold actions have appeared

カツン・・・ (katsun)
sound of Kotomine's footstep



03_071

ようやく大きな動きが出てきたか
Has a great change finally occured?

はたして今回はどのような結末が待ち受けているのかーーー
What kind of conclusion awaits us this time---?



03_072

ただいま (tadaima)
I'm home

ガラ・・・ (gara...)
sound of door sliding

あれ？
Oh?

おかしいな
How odd

今日は桜たち来てないのか
Sakura and Tiger didn't come today?

とりあえず飯にしようか
For now shall I make some food?

セイバーも腹が減ったろう
I bet you're hungry too, Saber

ひょい (hyoi)
sound of Saber suddenly popping up



03_073

トントントン (tontonton)
sound of Shirou chopping
ジャーッ
sound of cooking

・・・ところでマスター
...By the way, Master

ん？どうしたー？
Hm?  What's up?

ザァザァ (zaazaa)
sound of cooking

リンとの共闘の期限はライダーを倒すまででしたね
This alliance with Rin lasts until Rider is defeated, correct?

今のうちにその後のことを相談しておきたいのですが
I would like to discuss what we will do afterwards.

その後のことって？
"What we will do afterwards" being?

あのアーチャーのことです
About that Archer
また不意打ちを仕掛けてくるかもしれません
He may launch another sneak attack



03_074

あはは・・・まさか
Ahaha... you're kidding, right?

笑い事ではありませんシロウ
This is not something to laugh about, Shirou

私たちが聖杯を奪い合う敵同士であることは変わらない
This does not change the fact that we are enemies fighting for the Holy Grail
希望的観測は命取りになります
Wishful thinking will be fatal. [or "Thinking optimistically will be fatal"]

うーん
Yeah
それはそうかもしれないけど・・・
You might be right but...

やっぱりそれはないよセイバー
Still I don't think so, Saber

いきなりそれまで協力してた相手の裏をかくなんて真似遠坂はしないだろ
Suddenly turning on her partner right after cooperating with them is somehow not Tohsaka's style



03_075

そうだな・・・
But you'ore right...
万一向こうが仕掛けてきたらその時は戦う
If by chance she turns and attacks us then at that time we will fight
それでどうだ？
How's that?

そうですね
That's fine
ではそういう方針で行きましょう
Then let us go with that plan

ですがやはりあのアーチャーは油断なりません
But like I thought that Archer is cunning [or "sly/shrewd/crafty"]
将来私たちに不利になるよう話はあまりしない方がいいでしょうね
In the future it would probably be better for us to not talk about being at a disadvantage [implying that Archer may jump on them if they do]

はは
Haha
ある意味遠坂の方が油断ならないけどな
You mean Tohsaka is cunning

むしろリンは信頼できるという話だったはずでは？
But shouldn't we talk about being able to trust Rin instead?

？

そういうことじゃなくてさ
It's not like that

つくづく遠坂には裏切られたと言うか
Do you really want to talk about how Tohsaka will doublecross us?

[really] [as for tohsaka] 

03_076

今日の共闘の話だって妙に脅迫じみてたろ
Although today's discussion about working together strangely felt threatening

あれは絶対猫の皮被った悪魔だ
She's absolutely a demon wearing cat's skin [or "wolf in sheep's clothing"]

俺の憧れだった清楚な遠坂とはえらい違いだよ
She's incredibly different from the nice and proper Tohsaka I admired

あら衛宮くん
Ara, Emiya-kun

ギシッ (gishii)
sound of door sliding

ん？
Hm?

そんな風に見てくれていたとは光栄だわ
I'm honored you see me like that

ばんッ



03_077

と・・・遠坂！？
To...Tohsaka!?

ばッ

こんばんは衛宮くん
Good evening, Emiya-kun
内緒話する時は戸締りくらいしときなさいね
You should lock the doors when talking about secrets

お　おまえどうして・・・？
Wh-why are you...?

ドサッ

ごめんなさいね
I'm sorry
呼んでも返事がないから勝手に上がらせてもらったわ
I called but there was no reply so I came in on my own

いやそうじゃなくて
No, not that
なんで俺の家に！？
Why are you in my house!?

あらさっき言ったでしょ？
Oh, didn't I say something earlier?
詳しい話はあとでって
That "we'd talk about this in detail later"

いやでもそれにしたって
No, you said that but
その荷物はいったい・・・？
What's with that luggage...?



03_078

だからさっき言ったじゃない
So didn't I say it earlier?
これから
From now on
い・ろ・い・ろ・面・倒・み・て・あ・げ・る・って
I〜will〜take〜care〜of〜various〜things

そういうわけで今日からここでお世話になるから
So from now on I'll be indebted to you here ["here" being the Emiya house]
よろしくね衛宮くん (yoroshiku ne Emiya-kun)
Please take care of me, Emiya-kun

ぱッ (paa)
sound of Rin flipping her hair

・・・・・・！！？

？

そういう話だったのですかシロウ？
Was there a conversation like that, Shirou?
