Knights of the Universe/Part Three

The third issue of Knights of the Universe.

Plot
As the students of Will-o'-Wisp Academy look for Vanilla's brigade on the kingdom's outskirts, King Geasshigaou Oden and Khao Yam learn more about The "Sheep"'s strength. Kneeling in front of them are three magicians who tried and failed to kill it, two of whom are supporting a wounded companion. King Oden and Khao Yam begin to lose hope, but before they can grieve, Miss Madeleine enters the room.

Translation
King Oden: 全滅だとっ？！

Annihilated?!

[コヴォマカ王国・国王・ゲアッシガオウ・オーデン]

[Kovomaka Kingdom - King - Geasshigaou Oden]

Wounded mage: 申し訳ございませんっ...

Forgive us for our failure...

魔法騎士７名衛兵１２名全員目覚めた"羊"によって...

The seven magic knights and twelve guards, all of them were crushed by The "Sheep"...

Khao Yam: では、やはりあの隕石が予言書にある、"羊"に間違いなかったとゆうことなのだな

It seems we were correct. That meteorite really is The "Sheep" from the prophecy.

[コヴォマカ王国・国王側近魔道士・カオ・ヤム]

[Kovomaka Kingdom - Royal Counselor - Khao Yam]

King Oden: 向かわせたのはヴァニラだぞ！

But it was facing Vanilla!

ヴァニラ率いる白鷹魔法騎士団であるぞっ！

And the White Hawks Magic Knights led by her!

Wounded mage: ...残念ながら...

...I'm sorry to say...

King Oden: なんと言う事だあのヴァニラが...

Goodness, that Vanilla was...

Khao Yam: "羊"とはあの予言書どおり…いや、それ以上の力を持った存在であるとゆう事か

So The "Sheep" is as powerful as the prophecy foretold... No, it may be even stronger than that.

King Oden: もうよい...

Worry not.

そなたが無事に還って来てくれただけでもなによりの救いじゃ

Your safe return is a great relief.

Wounded mage: はっ...

Hah...

King Oden: 早急に手当をしてあげなさい

Now, make haste and tend to his wounds.

Mage 1: はいっ

Yessir.

Khao Yam: 万全を期してヴァニラ隊を派遣したのだぞ...

We deployed Vanilla's brigade so we could be completely sure...

Khao Yam: ヴァニラは…"エニグマ憑き"⁽¹⁾なのだぞっ

Since Vanilla...has fused with an enigma.

※Side note 1: エニグマという魔物が表意し、魔法力が高まっている魔法使いの事.

Mages can fuse with beasts called enigmas, which greatly increases their power.

Mage 2: 大丈夫か？

You feeling okay?

Mage 1: よくぞ生きて戻って来てくれたな

At least you made it back alive.
