Part 61: Post-Intermission
: Even if it is to avenge your parents...!
: Hold on a sec. Jiron, you've been with us for the past 3 days, right?
: ...Yeah.: How many days ago did that Timp guy kill your parents?: They were killed... a week ago!: A WEEK!?: !
Wow, you guys are assholes.
: What? What's so funny?: Well, I mean... Someone looking for their parents' killer even after a whole week...!
: Y-you're a hell of a guy, aren't ya...
: What is that supposed to mean, exactly?
: B-beats me...: Yeesh... So we've been helping someone avenge a week-old crime?: (.........)
: You're the one in the wrong for not settling the matter in 3 days. Timp's the one in the right! He cut and run!: You're the badguy here, for chasing him down.: Why is that wrong!? My Pa and Ma were killed!!: Oh, come on. Running for 3 days, trying to take Xabungle for yourself... And you're even seeking revenge for something that happened over a week ago! That's strange, no matter how you look at it, right?: Yeah, you've got no room to complain, even if you get shot from behind.: In this world, all grievances must be addressed within 3 days. If we didn't have that law, we couldn't survive.: That's a load of bunk! It doesn't even make sense! If Timp wasn't the kind of guy he was, the Iron Gear would've never ended up like this either!: ...Izzat so? You sure it's not 'cause you're dragging us into your affairs?: (.........): You're a scary one... You get others all tangled up in whatever you're doing.: I just... I just want to do what I want!: The only people on Earth who can do that are the Innocent.: I hear people who disregard the law get singled out by the Innocent for punishment. They've got their eye on you.: (.........): This 3 day law is something the Innocent established?: Yes, that's right. Don't tell me you guys didn't know that, either?: Getting off scot free after 3 days, no matter what crime you commit...? You don't consider that strange?
: My world has plenty of guys who'd avenge their parents regardless of how long it took.: !: Of course, that's assuming they even had parents to start with.: Y-you...: You're nuts! You'll be in big trouble if you keep that up and draw the Innocent's attention!: (...So they really are afraid of the Innocent......)
: Well, whatever the case... The fact of the matter remains, we're being targeted by Breakers. We'd better sleep with one eye open until we reach P-Point.: P-Point?: The Innocent's payment point. It's the only place where we can meet with them... We can trade in these blue stones there to get all sorts of stuff.: (A meeting with the Innocent, huh? Maybe that'll give us more insight into this world.): But, y'know... That Timp guy could come and attack us like last time.: ...We'll worry about that if it comes up. But Jiron, no more going off and acting on your own, okay? Captain's orders!: I won't give up until I avenge my Ma and Pa!: Getting so bent out of shape over something that happened over a week ago... That's just plain weird!: I'm being honest!: If you let it bother you that much, you'll get all dried up and wrinkly!: (.........) Why is it wrong to let it bother me...?: (.........)
[SCENE CHANGE]
: Hmm. The Iron Gear, Jiron Amos, and some Irregulars... They could become more dangerous than expected.
: I'm crossin' pretty dangerous fords here too, y'know. I think it's about time I started gettin' a little better treatment 'round these parts.: Watch what you say, Timp. Don't forget that you're being employed by the Innocent.: I'm not sayin' that to you, Mister. I'm sayin' that to yer own boss's head honcho.: (.........): With these crummy Breakers I've been stuck with lately... It's too dangerous to go up against them.: In that case, I've already got a plan laid out.: Oh...?: The Iron Gear's headed to P-Point to make a blue stone payment... They'll be punished there for disturbing the Innocent's order.: That's strange. I thought Commander Biel ordered them to be put on probation...: (.........) We've given you a mission to ensure that the civilians keep fighting in this land of Zora.: (.........): But those youngsters in the Iron Gear and Xabungle could destroy our whole system. We favor the strong, but they seem to be of an entirely different breed.: (.........): It's still too early for their breed to flourish... They need punishment, not probations.: So who's gonna deliver it?: Vickman, although he was originally called here as a countermeasure to deal with the people coming from the moon.: (Vickman, huh. Just like I figured...): I'll leave negotiations with him up to you. Be sure to get them good and riled up.: So how about giving me some info on these people coming from the moon? All the Breakers you're gathering through me are gonna have a blast with 'em, aren't they?: (.........): Without info on the enemy, it's hard for those guys to fight, y'know.: (.........): And that's to say nothin' of the fact that I don't even believe people live on the moon...: There's no need to answer that. Proceed as planned.: (.........): And in particular, gather as much info on the Irregulars as you can... I want you to report every last little detail.
