[TRANSLATED] CODE GEASS: Lelouch of the Re;surrection (Chapter 7, Pt 2)

17841784Original Scans: courtesy of Comic NewType

SCHNEIZEL
He'll be assuming command of your backup on this operation for me.
Another hard-worker from the private sector1.

SCHNEE
Schnee Hexenhaus, at your service.
I look forward to working with you.

KALLEN
Schnee— You were Suzaku's subordinate, weren't you?!

SCHNEE
Yes, ma'am.
I was part of his elite guard.2

SCHNEE
This isn't actually our first meeting, either.
It was on the battlefield—
We were both piloting KMFs at the time, but...

KALLEN
What?!
When?

SCHNEE
When Lady Nunnally was appointed3 to Japan, we were her escort
as she crossed the Pacific Ocean.

KALLEN
Oh, right...
That time.

SAYOKO
But Master Schnee,
if you're to participate in this operation, doesn't that mean...

SCHNEE
Yes.
I assume I know Zero's true identity.

LLOYD
<squeak>
Assume,
you say...

LLOYD
What a strange response!

SFX
<twitch>

SCHNEE
Mr. Suzaku had one other subordinate.
Orchestrated by Lord Schneizel.
His duty was to watch Mr. Suzaku.

SCHNEE
The purpose of which was to determine his connection with the previous Zero.

KALLEN
(The previous...?)

SCHNEE
In the course of his investigation,
he supposed to learn Zero's identity, Mr. Suzaku's relationship to him—
—and, of course
about that mysterious power known as geass.

SCHNEE
But then, when the FLEIJA warhead was released over Tokyo, he protected me

SCHNEE
—and lost his life.

KALLEN
...

SCHNEE
I resented Mr. Suzaku for firing that missile.
I despised him for it.
But I was also in denial.

SCHNEE
Losing my faith in him — someone I'd loved and respected...

SCHNEE
Well, in the end, that was why I left the army.

KALLEN
If that's how you feel, why join us for this operation?

SCHNEE
...

SCHNEE
He—
Ledo4, that is... left me an intelligence report.

SCHNEE
That report was how
I learned about his investigation.

SCHNEE
I thought, by learning Zero's true identity and about the power of geass
—I might also come to understand why Mr. Suzaku did what he did
and what he was trying to do.

KALLEN
I see...

SCHNEE
I threw such cruel words at Mr. Suzaku.
And yet—
He was the one who encouraged me to keep going after the loss of my friend.

SCHNEE
The one who
urged me not to give up on tomorrow.
And I
couldn't spare even one word of gratitude to him for all of that.
That's why—

KALLEN
Hey, it's okay!
We're gonna rescue Zero and Nunnally for sure.
And when we do, you'll be able to thank him as much as you want.

SCHNEE
Yes—
And I'll do my utmost to back you up!

<grunt>

SFX
<clackity clack>
<fwooooosh>

C.C.
Well, let's get moving, Lelouch.
I want to be in the royal capital before dark.

KANON
The investigation team will be entering Zilkhstan shortly.

SCHNEIZEL
Yes.
All we can do now is hope for Miss Kouzuki and her team's best effort.

SFX
<rooooar>

LLOYD
Do we really have to jump from here?!

SAYOKO
Please prepare yourself, Dr. Asplund.

SFX
<fasten, zip, click>

SCHNEE
I'm afraid so, Dr. Asplund.
You and Kallen are simply too famous to enter
the country legally without attracting attention right now.

SFX
<beep, beep>

PILOT
We're approachingt he drop-off zone!

SCHNEE
Miss Kallen!

SFX
<thud—>
<rumbling...>
<WHOOOOOSH>

SFX
<roooooar>

SFX
<roooooar>

KALLEN
Well, we'll see you later!

SCHNEE
Miss Kallen!

SCHNEE
Good hunting to you...!5

KALLEN
Thanks,
Schnee!

LLOYD
NoooOOOOOOOOOOO—

SFX
<jump>

LLOYD
—OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...!

LLOYD
HELP MEEEEeeeee....!

KALLEN
(Just hang tight, you two—)
(We're coming!)



1 Like Kallen et al.
2 Man, everything in CG is 親衛隊. Shamna's Royal Guard, the Knights of the Round, Cornelia's personal forces... Bodyguard, elite guard, imperial guard, they're all fine translations depending on context. (A president would have bodyguards, for example, but it'd be the royal guard for royalty.)
3 As viceroy, presumably.
4 Or Redo. The Lancelot & Guren manga has spelled this character's name two different ways within its text, so take your pick.
5 Schnee's phrase here is a Japanese expression wishing one good luck, specifically in the context of a war.
