Translation under the cut.

Cadena: I’m serious. I’ll do anything to make sure you two won’t die on me… That’s the choice I made.

Hansel: ...You sure say whatever you want, don’t you? Taking on such a selfish task by yourself...

Cadena: Yeah. If it means you and Gerard can survive, I’m okay with being hated.

Hansel: ...Eh?

Cadena: You also saw how Gerard is trying to fight Nandin, didn’t you?

Gerard: ...Ah—

Cadena: That net is definitely strong, but catching a beast with that… That’s difficult.

Cadena: While it’ll stop a beast in its tracks for a moment, the wire won’t stand a chance against its violent struggling…

Cadena: Trying to do something like that… you’re definitely gonna die that way.

Hansel: That’s—

Cadena: That’s why I decided to place my bets on the power I just showed you.

Cadena: Because with that, the possibility of defeating Nandin would be a lot greater than it would be if you were to catch it and send it off by tram.

Hansel: ...*sigh*

Cadena: If possible, I wanna fight alongside you and Gerard, together…

Cadena: ...But if not, I’ll just do whatever it takes to keep you in line.

Gerard: Cadena… Why are you doing this…?

Cadena: I told you already, didn’t I? You guys are more important to me than my own life—

Gerard: That’s not what I mean… What the hell has made you change so much?

Hansel: R-Right… You never used to say things like th—

Cadena: I’ve also decided… that I don’t wanna run away anymore.

Hansel: ...Eh?

Cadena: I’d noticed when Abel told me…

Gerard: Gh!?

Cadena: If it means I can protect the most important thing in my life… I’ll swallow everything, no matter how bitter and painful it may be.

Cadena: Running away from here, roaming around all upbeat, and living without causing trouble... I'm not gonna do that anymore.

Cadena: No matter what anyone thinks, and no matter what I lose, I will protect what’s most important to me…!

Gerard: ………

Cadena: Hansel… You might not really like being ordered around by me, but…

Cadena: ...This time, I won’t give in.

Hansel: What… is this…?

Cadena: Huh?

Hansel: You've been saying whatever you want for a while now... Does that mean you're not willing to listen to us either?

Hansel: To call us your friends after all that… how dare you?

Cadena: Hansel… I get that you don’t see me as your friend, but—

Hansel: Who! Who was it that said all those things back then!?

Cadena: Huh…?

Hansel: The one who told me to join you was you, wasn’t it!? And yet, all this time we weren’t even friends!?

Cadena: B-But Hansel, you were always by Gerard’s—

Hansel: That doesn’t mean I don’t consider you my friend!

Hansel: Cadena… You never say what you think about anything, you just carelessly laugh things off…

Hansel: You instinctively rely on Gerard to make your decisions for you!

Cadena: Ah! I see… That’s right…

Hansel: Hey, tell me… Cadena, what do you call a “friend”...?

Hansel: Someone who selfishly decides on things, and then forces that on others…? Is that it? Is that really what you call a “friend”...?

Cadena: ...I don’t know. I might be wrong, but…

Cadena: ...even if the way I went about things was wrong… This time, I can say with confidence that I’m right.

Hansel: Why… are you…!

Cadena: Because I want to live together with you and Gerard, okay!?

Cadena: If you don’t watch out here, you’ll end up getting killed by those beasts…

Cadena: If we survive, we can think about what it means to be friends… And even if I mess up now, we might be able to start over fresh after this…

Cadena: So… Just this once, I just want to believe that we can survive together…!

Hansel: ...You’re not running away?

Cadena: Yeah. I’m not running away… I don’t want to run away.

Hansel: ………

Cadena: I wanted to tell you two about all of my true feelings.

Cadena: But if I still can’t make you understand, then I’m all out of options…

Cadena: It’s gonna be lonely, but… I don’t care about that, not even if you resent me.

Hansel: You should’ve discussed that with us… from the get go…

Cadena: Huh…?

Hansel: You said I don’t consider you my friend anymore… but that was a misunderstanding.

Hansel: This is my only chance to say this, so… When you’d taken me in back then…

Hansel: ...I was… so happy…

Cadena: Hansel…

Hansel: From now on, you should discuss these things from the get go…

Cadena: A-Alright! I promise!

Hansel: Gerard, is it… okay? If possible, I…

Hansel: I want to fight together with Cadena!

Cadena: Hansel!

Gerard: ...Alright.

Gerard: I heard you. If you’ve found your purpose, then you should fulfill it.

Cadena: Then, Gerard, you—!

Gerard: ...But I’m not coming with you.

Cadena, Hansel: What!?
