Dot Kareshi - Villager's Drama CD translation
I've found a translation I paid for back in 2018. I'm so glad! I was so sure I lost this...
Translated by @/yumegasaki (I think so? it's been a while..)
Anyways.... I know Dot Kareshi tag is super dead, but if someone is seeing this post, enjoy!
Right⌠Gathering information is the first step to completing every quest.
Without that information, we wonât know which enemies to defeat or which items to look for.
Well⌠I think you know much more about it than I do. Thatâs because youâre a player in this game.
Ah⌠But you⌠Didnât you start by battling those low-level monsters in the starter dungeons so you could raise the level of your main party and earn resources, instead of gathering information and progressing through the story?
That brings back memories.
[01:01] No, itâs nothing at all. I was just talking to myself.
Why donât we start by going to the nearest town or village and talking to the people there?
The village where I grew up just happens to be beyond this forest. We might be able to find out something if we go there. My house is there too.
There are poisonous monsters all over this forest, but itâll be fine. Weâve got plenty of antidotes, you see! Feel free to use as many as you like.
Weâre just going to end up giving them away to people we talk to anyway.
I donât have a magnificent sword like the hero and the knight do. I canât cast powerful magic like the magician or the priest either.
[02:03] Iâll definitely protect you though. In the way that I can. So donât worry.
Come on! If we donât hurry, itâll be dark by the time we get there. Letâs go.
Ah⌠Itâs nice to come back to your own place when youâve been away for a while.
It feels really relaxing. Dinner is already prepared too.
Come and sit at this table.
I wish I could offer you more than this, but Iâm just a villager. Iâm sorry that this is all I can do.
[03:03] Even so, Iâve put all my heart into preparing it! Eat up!
I hope youâll like itâŚ
Ah! Thank goodness! It seems that you like it!
Eat as much as you like, okay?
Thanks to you, I was able to finish clearing up right away. Thank you very much.
You just yawned. Are you already tired?
Well⌠You lost some of your hit points quite a few times today.
Your tiredness must have built up over the past few days too.
[04:02] Weâve got to work hard again starting tomorrow. Letâs have an early night.
The room at the end of the hall is the guest room. Please sleep there tonight.
Iâll be sleeping in the room opposite yours, so let me know if you need anything.
Goodnight then.
This was at a castle town in the east⌠And this is⌠Now I remember! The village in the skyâŚ
This brings back memories⌠AhâŚ
Even after she had beaten the boss, she would still make the whole party wander around a dungeon for the sake of experience pointsâŚ
[05:07] Even when an opponent could be defeated with a single strike, she would put the whole party except for the thief on defence so that she could steal from that opponent.
She did that more times than I can even count.
If a monster was going to be defeated before she had a chance to steal from it, then sheâd go as far as keeping it alive by recovering its HP.
The monsters looked hopeless, with their health bars at yellow, as the battles were kept going for the sake of finding rare items.
Iâve been watching you for a long timeâŚ
But no matter how many times I called out to you⌠No matter how closely I looked at you⌠No matter how many times I brought impossibly rare items to all the different towns⌠You didnât notice me at allâŚ
[06:15] Iâve wished so hard to meet her! Itâs finally come true!
Now I can talk to her freely, without being restricted by the text formatting, game progress and character settings!
I can tell her anythingâŚ
Hmm? What are you doing here?
So you heard everything, didnât you?
Thereâs nothing I can do about that then.
Shall we go somewhere else first?
[07:15] Iâm glad I could make use of a bug to turn this basement into an underground prison, since I had a feeling something like this might happen.
Oh no⌠Why are you attacking me?
Itâs really difficult for me to say this, but even if you attack with all your strength, itâs not going to work at all. This kind of damage is nothing compared to my total HP.
Donât you understand this feeling better than I do?
Judging by how youâve played RPGs up until nowâŚ
Hmm⌠It wouldnât have any effect on me, but if you got desperate and used a sacrificial move, thatâd be somewhat troublesome.
[08:13] So just behave yourself and hold onto me.
Itâs no good. Those handcuffs and shackles are made from orichalcum.
They wonât come off without the key, even if a dragon breathes fire on them all day.
You know that too, donât you?
You collected a lot of orichalcum to upgrade the heroâs armour into its final form, didnât you?
Right⌠You were having so much trouble finding orichalcum that you were going to leave the game unfinished. I couldnât just ignore that, so I gave you a few pieces.
Donât you remember?
[09:04] Iâm sure that it was beside the well in a village at the foot of a mountain.
Even though you fought all the low-level monsters, you couldnât find a single piece. You were annoyed about getting it from an NPC so easily.
It was unavoidable. It hadnât been planned from the very beginning. It was a minor bug that I created.
I was always watching you. I said this during the day, didnât I? Iâll definitely protect you. In the way that I can.
I followed you, wanting you to notice me. I always helped you at every village and town that you went to. I tried to protect you.
[10:12] But no matter how hard I tried, you didnât notice me.
I was nothing more than an NPC to you. Things are different now though.
You look at me. You talk to me. Iâm not just one person among many others.
I can kiss you like this too.
[11:07] Iâve done it. Iâve done it. Now youâre mine.
I donât need anything else if youâre with me. You were the only thing I wanted.
As long as youâre here, it doesnât matter if no one else plays this game. I donât mind if the game itself disappears from the world. Iâd actually want that to happen.
[12:10] Iâll create a fatal bug that deletes all the other characters. Letâs get rid of everyone else and make this a world for just the two of us. Okay?
In this world, the only things that exist will be this underground prison and the two of us. Thatâs when weâll show our love for each other.
Weâll never be apart. Not even for a moment.
Well? Donât you think thatâs wonderful?
[13:00] Iâll create another bug so I can give you anything you want.
Thatâs right. Just like the orichalcum.
Iâm the only one in this world who can love a woman like you.
