Card Story: A Matching Scent Tonight (Shylock, Murr, Chloe, Rustica, Bradley, Akira)
Card Episode: Secret Present (Shylock, Akira)
A Matching Scent Tonight: Chapter 1
[Location: Manor’s courtyard, day]
Akira: Hello, Shylock. What are you doing?
Shylock: ….
Akira: Um, hello…?
Shylock: ...Ssh.
Akira: (Uh, w-what? Is he here in secret or something…?)
(fireworks)
Akira: !?
[In the sky]
Murr: Yahoo! 《 Earnu Rambul 》
(fireworks)
Murr: Ahaha! I’ll coat the skies with fireworks!
Akira: So the noise from before was fireworks…. But why is Murr …?
Shylock: It’s not just him, you see.
Chloe: 《 Suispicibo Voitengok 》
Rustica: 《 Amorest Viesse 》
When Chloe and Rustica chanted their spells, a sentence floated up in the skies. It was in a language I couldn’t understand, but Shylock was smiling as he watched.
Murr: Here comes the final touch!
Murr: 《 Earnu Rambul 》
Heaps of confetti came raining down following the sound of an ornamental paper ball popping. Then, a small box fluttered its way down.
And the moment Shylock took the box in his hands—
Murr, Chloe, Rustica: Happy birthday, Shylock!
Shylock: Thank you very much.
Akira: Ah…. Is it your birthday today, Shylock?
Chloe: Yep! That’s why we were doing a celebration show!
Rustica: We shared ideas on how to give Shylock a wonderful moment. Did you like it?
Shylock: Yes. The show was extravagant and lively, just magnificent.
Akira: (Western wizards’ birthday celebrations are so unique.... And they go along with each other so well, it’s heartwarming.)
Murr: Shylock, open the box and see what’s inside!
Shylock: ...Oh? It smells like champagne, but it doesn’t look like one. Is this perfume?
Chloe: Yes, it is! We tried to pick out a scent that you’d find soothing.
Chloe: You made us drinks, listened to our stories, and consoled us all the time….
Chloe: So consider this our thanks!
Shylock: This is a lovely gift. I will make use of it wholeheartedly.
Shylock: Master Sage, they intend to hold a birthday party for me after this. Would you come join us? Only if it’s to your liking, of course.
Akira: Can I really?
Shylock: Of course. Today would be even more special with you celebrating my birthday.
Akira: Then, yes, please let me join you!
Murr: Off to the bar we go! We have a special guest waiting for us today!
A Matching Scent Tonight: Chapter 2
[Location: Manor's bar, dusk]
Murr: Let the party begin!!
Akira: By the way, who’s this special guest you mentioned?
Murr: It’s him right there!
Bradley: Right about time.
Chloe: B-Bradley!?
Rustica: Oh my, look at our wonderful guest. I can see this party growing even merrier.
Bradley: Y’all are takin’ too long! Why’d I even hafta wait?
Bradley: Ya said I could stuff myself fulla food and booze, but when I got here, this place was empty.
Chloe: Ahaha…. For the record, we did plan to come here earlier….
Rustica: Alas, a sudden desire to hold a musical performance took over me.
Shylock: As we were enjoying Rustica’s recital, the time simply flew by.
Bradley: A recital? Somethin’ ain’t right with y’all Western wizards…. I was so damn sick o’ waiting that I cracked open some bottles fer myself.
Akira: Murr, why is Bradley our guest for tonight?
Murr: ‘Cause I saw him this morning!
Murr: And, if Bradley’s here, the party probably won’t go as planned.
Shylock: My, how very typical of you to welcome incidents.
Murr: You don’t dislike that, do you?
Shylock: Fufu, so long as I can still enjoy it.
Shylock: Then, let me prepare some drinks. The party can’t begin until the glasses are filled, after all.
Bradley: Hold it right there.
Bradley: I’ll be makin’ the drinks today. Gotta have somethin’ other than yer typical fancy-schmancy hooch once in a while or it’ll get pretty borin’.
Bradley: Drink this.
Murr: Whoa! Is this the one you were drinking?
Rustica: It does have a wonderful aroma.
Bradley: Belt it down, and I’ll pour ya one every time you empty your glass. Ain’t everyday that ya get someone to fill your glass in yer own bar, right?
Shylock: Certainly, it is just as you say….
Chloe: Um, B-Bradley! Can I help you make the drinks? I want to serve Shylock too!
Rustica: I shall do the same, for Shylock is our dear customer tonight.
Akira: Wait, let me help too!
Bradley: Wha— Don’t just get in here all at once, it’s cramped!
Rustica: Shylock, may I have your order?
Chloe: You can request anything!
Shylock: My, it seems I am left with no space to get behind the counter.
Murr: See? It didn’t go as you scripted, right?
Shylock: It most definitely did not. Then, I shall let myself be comfortable and get drunk on all of your service.
A Matching Scent Tonight: Chapter 3
[Location: Manor's bar, dusk]
Murr: Happy birthday, Shylock!
Chloe, Rustica: Happy birthday!
Akira: Shylock, happy birthday!
Bradley: I’ll join yer party at least.
Shylock: Thank you, everyone. Now, cheers.
Everyone: Cheers!
[Evening]
Akira: …Hm? Is someone sleeping?
Chloe: Zzz….
Shylock: My, it seems that Chloe has fallen asleep sitting on the sofa.
Rustica: Chloe has worked so hard—he must have laughed so much today that his eyelids have grown heavy.
Rustica: Now, watching him is making me sleepy….
Rustica: ...Zzz.
Akira: Rustica?
Shylock: Fufu…. It appears that Rustica has been beckoned into drowsiness.The sight of them cuddling up to each other is truly heartwarming.
Bradley: I’m gettin’ real bored with just drinkin’, Hey, Mister Bobby-Hair from the West, you up t’ bettin’ against me?
Murr: Oh, I’m in! Wanna have a go over a board game?
Bradley: Hell yeah. I’ll strip ya of everything ye got.
Shylock: Those two over there seem to be having their own fun.
Shylock: Master Sage, would you like to hang around the counter? Let’s take some time for ourselves.
Akira: We did a lot of things today. I felt like it’s been a while since the last time we had a chance to talk leisurely like this.
Akira: (...Oh, I smell something nice.)
Akira: Shylock, this scent…. Is it…?
Shylock: Yes, this is the perfume gifted to me this afternoon. I applied it right away.
Akira: It’s a really wonderful smell. It definitely suits you, Shylock.
Shylock: If you like it, would you like to try putting some on?
Akira: Can I!? Then, please.
Shylock: I’ll spray some on your wrist….
Shylock: There. How is it?
Akira: ...Wah, it smells pleasant.
Akira: We have the same fragrance right now. I feel like we’ve gotten closer… It makes me happy somehow.
Akira: (I hope with this fragrance, I can be more like an adult, like Shylock….)
Shylock: ….
Akira: Hm? Is something wrong?
Shylock: Not at all. It’s just that I never would have expected you to seduce me so passionately.
Akira: Seduce…? I d-didn’t mean it in that way….
Shylock: Then in what way did you mean?
Akira: Um, I-I….
Bradley: ...Pfft, ahaha!
Chloe: Ssh! They’ll notice us if you laugh too loud!
Rustica: Chloe, we are asleep, remember? People who are asleep close their eyes.
Akira: S-Since when were you all watching…!?
Bradley: Dunno, don’t mind us.
Murr: Yeah, go on! I want to see more of Master Sage seducing Shylock!
Akira: You’re wrong, it’s really nothing like that at all…!
Shylock: ...Fufu.
Shylock: When something seems to be going according to plan, yet fate twists in another direction…. That is what makes it so pleasantly enchanting, don’t you think so, Master Sage?
Card Episode: Secret Present
[Location: Manor’s bar, day]
Akira: Shylock, your birthday party was a blast. How was it for you?
Shylock: I had an unforgettable night thanks to everyone
Shylock: I found that it’s not a bad thing to be served so ardently once in a while.
Akira: You’re often on the serving side, after all.
Shylock: Yes, because I like to. When your birthday is upon us, I will serve you to the best of my ability.
Akira: Thank you so much! I’m sure whatever you’ll give me will be wonderful.
Shylock: Fufu, you’re really good at giving compliments, Master Sage. When faced with such adorable expectations, I have no choice but to meet them.
Shylock: I shall give you a very, very special present on your birthday.
Akira: Special?
Shylock: Yes, special. I can’t offer anything more than that.
Shylock: It might be food, or an accessory. A view of a landscape, or maybe something completely other than that…. Aren’t you curious?
Shylock: Let your imagination run wild, and until the day is upon us, please fill your head with thoughts of only me.
Special Home Screen Line
Shylock: Master Sage, how about letting yourself get lost inside my smoke? I will gently guide you into a pleasant world of dreams.
