Frantically Forbidden Fruit/Story/Youmu's Paradise Ending

From Touhou Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
  冥界のお屋敷、白玉楼。

  死後、霊達が行くことになる世界の一つ。
  顕界を覆い尽くし、門前に迫っていた果実は生りを潜め
  幽冥は元の厳かな空気を取り戻しつつあった。

Hakugyokurou, a mansion located in the Netherworld.

One of the realms that spirits would head to after death.
The fruits that covered the world and manifested at the gates were now fading,
and the Netherworld was regaining its former austere atmosphere.

妖夢 「ふぅ、結構危ない所だったのね…。

    幽々子様、ただいま戻り…。何してんですか」

Youmu: "Phew, that was a pretty dangerous place...
Lady Yuyuko, I'm back...! What are you doing?"
幽々子「あら…戻っちゃったの…残念ねぇ」 Yuyuko: "Oh, you're back. That's too bad..."
妖夢 「は、はいぃ?」 Youmu: "Y...yes?"
幽々子「こんな美味しい異変を終わらせるなんて勿体ないわ」 Yuyuko: "It'd be a shame to end such a delicious incident."
  口惜しそうに愚痴る冥界の姫、西行寺幽々子。

  彼女は冥界の門前に迫っていた果実をもぎ取り、
  妖夢不在の間にちゃっかりと堪能していたのであった。
  何故か、生のフルーツが皮ごとグラスに盛られていたが…。
  冥界嬢の思いつきはいつもの事なので、妖夢は華麗にスルーしていく。

Yuyuko Saigyouji, the princess of the Netherworld, grumbled bitterly.

She plucked the fruits that were looming in front of the gates and enjoyed them in Youmu's absence.
For some reason, she was serving fruits in glasses, complete with the skin.
The Netherworld's mistress always had splendid ideas, so Youmu would splendidly let them pass.

妖夢 「えーっと異変の件なんですけど、黒幕の場所が結構厄介でして…」 Youmu: "Um...Regarding the incident, locating its mastermind was quite tricky..."
幽々子「あらま、妖夢でも辿り着けたのね。良かった良かった」 Yuyuko: "Oh dear, you made it there too, Youmu! Good for you, good for you!"
妖夢 「呑気に言ってる場合じゃないですよ。何せ奴らは天界に…」 Youmu: "This is not the time to be drinking. Either way, she's in Heaven..."
幽々子「細工をして浮き島にしたんでしょ?

    ここから見えてたもの。勿論貴方の姿もね」

Yuyuko: "You made it to a floating island, didn't you?
I could see it all the way from here, and you as well!"
  そう、実は冥界から天華楼の事は筒抜けだったのだ。

  幽々子の仕事は冥界の管理人であり、天界や地獄とも繋がりがある。
  それこそ、ここから上空に飛べば天界に行くことも…。

Yes, it was true. The matter of the Heavenly Flower Tower had been transmitted to the Netherworld.

Yuyuko's job was to manage the Netherworld, which happened to be connected to Heaven and Hell.
For that matter, if you were to fly up from there, you could get to Heaven...

妖夢 「なんだ思いっきり遠回りしてたんですね、私…。はぁ…」 Youmu: "Oh, I was taking a drastic detour there...Sigh..."
幽々子「まぁまぁ、悪くはないんじゃない? 収穫はあったでしょう」 Yuyuko: "Now now, it's not all that bad, is it? I'm sure you had your pick of the crop."
妖夢 「ええ、無駄ではありませんでしたけど…。」 Youmu: "Yeah, it wasn't fruitless, but..."
幽々子「それに貴方の行った場所は、天界のようで天界ではない場所。

    天の土地を戴いて作った紛い物の楽園。砂上ならぬ天上の楼閣ね」

Yuyuko "And besides, you went somewhere that looked like Heaven, even though it wasn't exactly Heaven.
A false paradise created by taking Heaven's soil. A tower built upon Heaven, not sand."
幽々子「もしも本当の天界に辿り着いていたら、更に二度手間だったわね」 Yuyuko: "If you had made it to the actual Heaven, you would have had to put in double the effort."
妖夢 「あ。そういえば、妙な結界がありました。ではアレは…」 Youmu: "Ah. Come to think of it, there was a strange boundary. Then there was that thing..."
幽々子「無関係な地上の人間を追い返す為の処置でしょうね。結果オーライだけど」 Yuyuko: "I guess it's a measure to turn away irrelevant humans from below.
The outcome was all right, though."
妖夢 「…所で、うちの幽冥結界は何時になったら治るのでしょうか?」 Youmu: "...By the way, when will the Barrier of Life and Death be fixed?"
幽々子「さあねえ?」 Yuyuko: "I have no idea, do you?"
幽々子「さて、解決祝いにデザートを一緒に食べましょうか」 Yuyuko: "Now, let's have some dessert to celebrate the incident's resolution, shall we?"
妖夢 「そういうと思いまして、地上の果実を追加で沢山持ってきました」 Youmu: "I thought of that, which is why I brought lots of additional fruits from the earth."
幽々子「うふふ、よく解っているじゃないの

    あ、そうだ。飾り切りでお願いね」

Yuyuko: "Hehehe, you know exactly what I mean~

Ah, yes. Some decorative slices, please!"

妖夢 「……承知いたしました」 Youmu: "...As you wish."
  幽々子の頼みでフルーツの飾り切りパフェを披露する羽目になった妖夢。

  本人は美味しそうにスプーンをつついて果肉を堪能しているが、
  妖夢の顔はあまり釈然としていなかった。
  …扱いの適当さはいつもの事なので気にしていない。
  本当にこの異変はすべて解決したのだろうか。
  何か、どこかに見落としがないだろうか…。
  彼女の不安の種は、思いがけない形で花開く事となる。
  Ending No.09  EXTRAステージへ続くんじゃよ
    天華統一モード、オールクリアおめでとう!

Youmu had been forced to present a parfait, decorated with cut-up fruits, at Yuyuko's request.

She was enjoying a succulent spoonful of pulp, but Youmu's face had a less fulfilled expression.
...She wasn't concerned about how appropriate her treatment was, as things were always like this.
Had the incident truly been resolved?
She wondered if she was missing something, somewhere...
The seeds of her anxiety had bloomed in an unexpected manner.

Ending No.9 - To Be Continued in the Extra Stage
Congrats on clearing Paradise Mode!
