A transcript of part 9 of juicedup14 playthrough/translation of Kirigiri Sou, which you can watch here.

Again thanks to @drmedicsgamesurgery​ for helping me work on the transcript.

Text in parentheses () are my comments and not part of the transcript.



A. I immediately picked up the machine gun from the ground and pulled the trigger.

B. I immediately hit them with a barrage of kicks.

juicedup14 chooses B

I immediately hit them with a barrage of kicks. And in the middle, I connect with a heavy punch and unleashed a skilled combo. However, the Rhinogradentia dodges it with a jump.

“What!?”

While I was doing that, Kyouka picks up the machine gun while she’s laying down, and pulls the trigger.

Shell cases scatter with the sound of the gun. However, even though it was at point blank, the Rhinogradentia doesn’t get hit once.

As if being surprised by the bullet sounds, he jumps over us and goes somewhere else.

“Hurry!”

Kirigiri is waiting while holding the door open. Me and Kyouka hurry in there.

The door closes.

“We somehow shock them off.”

The damp and humid and narrow corridor goes on. Means this place hasn’t been damaged by the Rhinogradentia.

“The back door is the laboratory.”

When we open the back door, a white fluorescent lit room appears. It somehow smells like sterile smell of a hospital. In the middle, there is a flower bed surrounded by glass walls. In the flower bed an unusual cactus was growing.

“Where could the pinecones be?”* (This part repeats multiple times)



A. Inside the shelf.

B. The locker.

C. Inside the desk.

D. Under the bed.

E. High in the ceiling.

I open the back of the ceiling panel, and a large amount of pinecones come tumbling down with a rustling sound.

I look down under the bed, and I see lots of pinecones hidden there.

juicedup14 chooses A

I open the shelf, and large amounts of pinecones come tumbling down with a rustling sound.

We put as many pinecones as we can into a box, and each carry as we head out of the room.

Right we get back to the entrance hall, from the hole in the entrance comes Shikiba jumping in.

His white coat’s in tatters, and covered in green blood.

“Run, Run away!”

As Shikiba says while shaking his hand greatly.

From behind Shikiba, I see a tsunami of Rhinogradentia closing in.

We’re gonna get caught up in that at this rate!

“Uwaaa.”

While I scatter around pinecones into the darkness recklessly, blindly, I head to the stairs. Seeing as how climbing up the rumble would be hard with the box, I threw it into the hall and left it.

Somehow I’m up to the second floor, and run to the greenhouse. I notice that Kirigiri and Kyouka were already ahead of me, Shikiba was the last one.

Following Shikiba was a hoard of Rhinogradentia casing him.

We run into the greenhouse.

“Hurry, Captain!”

We wait with the door open for Shikiba.

It was an insane speed. He jumps into the greenhouse as if cutting the finish line. Kyouka immediately closes the door. And Rhinogradentia crash into the door. It was a fierce impact that distorted the iron door.That impact shock the whole mansion.

“Ha……ha……we somehow did it didn’t we! Captain!”

Kyouka’s shoulders go up and down as she breaths while she smiles.

“That was quite a tough battle……”

Shikiba was resting his arms on his knees, as his whole body breathes. I’m not surprised that the captain is exhausted as well.

“It’s too early to be relieved.”

Kirigiri looks up to the ceiling, while holding the box of pinecones.

An innumerable number of Rhinogradentia are crawling on the glass ceiling.

Not just that, their mouths are open and sticking their teeth out into the glass.

“It’s going to break……!”

After a while, cracks begin to show in the glass ceiling.

All of a sudden, the glass breaks. Small pieces fall like snow into the room.

At the same time, the Rhinogradentia start descending.

“Uwaa! It’s all over!”

I let out a scream as I try to run away.

I notice that the Rhinogradentia surround us.

Kirigiri, without expression, take out pinecones and throws them towards the Rhinogradnetia. Kyouka was aiming her machine gun.

“You guys, escape through the back door!”

Shikiba raises his voice.

“What about you Captain?”

“I’ll keep them here, and light the flame. Leave the rest to me.”

“But!”

Kyouka is flabbergasted.

“In this mansion, all the plants that I grew are here. I’m dying together with them.”

“Captain, you’re not saying you’re gonna……”

“Kyouka……the sakura tea you gave me……it was amazingly delicious!”

Captain……

We already heard that.

“Now, go! I’ll be the light of your hope in the future!”

As the pack of Rhinogradentia start kicking him around like a soccer ball, he points to the back door.

We jump into the door he pointed-no, we jump towards the future.

Rain is falling.

From the backyard, we go to the front of the building and head towards the front gate. The surrounding is very quiet, no Rhinogradentia can be seen.

From behind us, an explosion echoes.

But, we could not turn back.

For the future that the Captain left us, that connects to hope……

Right as we reach the gate, Kyouka is the first to turn around.

Both me and Kirigiri stop.

The mansion was already in a gulf of flame.

Even now, explosions still continue to happen. Bursting from the ceiling and windows, embers of fire vibrantly leave small trails as they rise towards the night sky.

It’s over……

Sure, all of the Rhinogradentia have been destroyed.

All thanks to the Captain, who gave his life.

“Thank you, Captain……I’ll never forget that you saved the world, with your own life.”

Kyouka muttered a prayer, as she falls to her knees.

This is how one’s man courage protected the peace of the Earth.

“-Or is that really how it is.”

Kirigiri said.

Even though we went through such trial and tribulation, her face was still cold.

Does this girl even have feelings?

“Why are you saying that!?”

I was a bit angry. The Captain who gave his life for us-no, isn’t it true that he saved the whole world?

“Do you think it’s over?”

Kirigiri picks up the machine gun. It was next to Kyouka. She makes sure the safety is off, and points the end of the gun to me.

“Wait, what!? What are you doing?”

I unconsciously raise my hands up.

And suddenly, she shoots towards the ground.

The fierce sound of the gun echos……but no bullets hit the ground.

What?

“They’re blanks.”

Kirigiri takes apart the machine gun, and inspects the bullets. From the way they look, it’s like a normal bullet, but……

“Even though the gun was used so much up until now, not a single bullet hit a Rhinogradentia. And moreover, there wasn’t even a trace of a bullet in the walls.”

“Yeah, it really is weird that even though it was so close, it didn’t hit. It’s very odd.”

“This machine gun is yours, isn’t it Kyouka? How come in this dire situation, you have blanks equipped?”

“Oh, I guess I made a mistake and got the wrong bullets! Ehehe……”

Kyouka awkwardly sticks her tongue out, and shows an embarrassed laugh as she scratches her head.

“-Is that really the case? I thought it was odd. Even though the Rhinogradentia had every chance to attack you, they never did. Even though you tripped twice.”

“What does this mean?”

“She-is a Rhinogradentia spy.”
