藤原 妹紅 | Fujiwara no Mokou | |
職業: 不明 | Occupation: Unknown | |
能力: 死なない程度の能力 | Ability: Being unable to die | |
住んでいる所: 迷いの竹林の何処か | Residence: Somewhere in the Bamboo Forest of the Lost | |
迷いの竹林には奇妙な伝説がある。 | There's a curious legend about the Bamboo Forest of the Lost. | |
里の人間とは別に妖怪退治を専門とする集団が隠れ住んでいて、音もなく高速に移動し、妖怪さながらの妖術を使い、特に強力で危険な妖怪を探しては退治して暮らしているというもので、今ではその存在は否定されつつある(*1)。 | It's said that a group of specialized youkai exterminators with the ability to move quickly yet silently lived hidden there, separated from the villagers. They used various kinds of youkai-like sorcery and exterminated particularly strong and dangerous youkai; though, their existence has been questioned recently (*1). | |
だが、最近になって迷いの竹林に永遠亭が発見されたりして、その妖怪退治集団の伝説も満更ではない可能性が出てきた。 | However, with the recent discovery of Eientei in the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, the possibility they actually existed seems more plausible. | |
そんな矢先、その集団の未裔じゃないかと思われる人物に出会った。 | About that time, I encountered a person who may be one of their descendants. | |
それが彼女である。 | That person is Fujiwara no Mokou. | |
彼女は人間だが、老いる事も滅ぶ事も無い躰を持っているという。長く生きてきた為、様々な妖術を身に付けており、妖怪とも互角に渡り合えるという。 | She is human, but they say she never ages and cannot be destroyed. Because she has lived for so long, she has learned various kinds of sorcery and can be said to be on equal footing with youkai. | |
人間故に妖怪に狙われる事もあるが軽くあしらう程強く、迷い込んだ人間を妖怪から救っている。 | Because she's human, she is sometimes targeted by youkai, but is strong enough to easily brush off their attacks, so primarily rescues lost humans from the youkai. | |
里の人間にも妖怪にもまつろわないで、迷いの竹林で隠れ住んでいたという。 | It's said she doesn't mingle with youkai or the humans from the village, but primarily lives hidden in the Bamboo Forest of the Lost. | |
伝説の集団との関系を訊ねると、何それ、としらばくれる。 | When asked about her connection to the legendary exterminators, she feigns ignorance. | |
余り人と接するのが得意ではないようで、迷い込んだ人間を助けても、何も言わずに立ち去ってしまう。 | She doesn't seem to good at interacting with people and leaves without saying a word even when she rescues lost humans. | |
能力 | Ability | |
---|---|---|
老いる事も滅ぶ事も無い躰を持つ。 | She possesses a body that doesn't age and cannot be destroyed. | |
所謂不老不死である。 | She is a so-called immortal. | |
不老不死の躰は、怪我の治りが異様に早く、大怪我を負っても数日で元通りになる(*2)。 | Her body heals unusually quickly, and even severe injuries will be completely healed in a matter of days (*2). | |
ただ、痛みは感じるので、それはそれで不老不死の憂鬱と言えるだろう。 | However, she still feels the pain of her injuries. This may be what they call the melancholy of immortality. | |
人間が不老不死の躰を得るには天人にならないといけないのだが、彼女は如何にしてそれを成したのか。 | It's said that humans can only achieve immortality by becoming a celestial, but somehow she has managed to become immortal through other means. | |
最近になって人前に姿を現わすようになったが、それまでは何処で何をしていたのか。 | She has begun appearing in public more often recently, but where has she been and what has she been doing until now? | |
彼女にその事について訊いても決して話してくれないし、謎である。 | She never talks about it even if you ask, so it remains a mystery. | |
自警団 | Watchguard | |
今は、少しでも里の人間と接点を持とうとしているのか、依頼すれば迷いの竹林の護衛をして貰える。 | Currently, perhaps because she's trying to make some connections with the people of the human village, she will serve as an escort through the bamboo forest to anyone who asks. | |
特に急病等で永遠亭に用事がある時は、彼女にお願いして連れていって貰えれば確実である。 | Especially in the case where people have business at Eientei, such as sudden illness, she can be relied on to guide villagers there. | |
迷う事無く、妖怪に怯える事無く永遠亭に辿り着ける。 | She will lead you to Eientei safely without risk of being lost or accosted by youkai. | |
その間、自分の事となると終始寡黙(*3)な彼女だが、こちらから家庭の話など話しかけると、喜んで聞いてくれるそうだ。 | During that time, she'll remain fairly reticent (*3) about herself, but she seems to be happy to listen to others talk about their own affairs. | |
不老不死とはいえ、天人では無いので考え方は大きな違いは無い。 | She may be immortal, but since she's not a celestial, her way of thinking is similar to most humans. | |
どんどんと気楽に話しかけると、もっと色んな事を教えてくれるかも知れない。 | We may be able to learn more as she becomes more accustomed to speaking with others. | |
*1: 忍者集団と考えられていた。 | 1: They're often thought of as a group of ninja. | |
*2: 髪の毛一本でも残っていれば、そこから元通りになるという。 | 2: It's said she could regenerate if even a single hair remains. | |
*3: 自分は健康マニアの焼鳥屋だ、としか言わない。 | 3: All she says is, "I'm a health nut that runs a yakitori stand." |
