Ibara Saegusa/Sub Story/Poisonous Snake's Tongue

{|cellspacing="1/6" cellpadding="2" border="1" align="center" width="100%" class="article-table" Jun-kun, Jun-kun! Hurry up, will you? We’ll be late at this rate!

 * Hiyori Tomoe School Dialogue Render.png

Really, now? Just whose fault do you think this is?
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png

How 'bout you prioritize arriving early for once, instead of making plans of your own and going off on a shopping spree at the station?

And you even went and bought so much shit again. Forcing me to carry all these bags and then telling me to hurry up — that’s just slave-driving at its finest right there.

Even a chill guy like myself would get angry too, y’know~? Though I could go a lil' faster if you’re fine with me just ditching all these bags right here, hm~?

Don’t you dare! Do that and we are through, Jun-kun! I finally found a good bargain and all so it’d be unthinkable to just throw it all away!
 * Hiyori Tomoe School Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe School Dialogue Render.png

What am I supposed to do then, jeezus... You’re being way too selfish, as usual.
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png

I’ve been waiting for you, gentlemen! Salute~☆
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png

I was worried since you two were taking so long!

If something were to happen to the both of you, it wouldn’t be just a disaster; it would be an irredeemable loss on a global scale! Ahahaha♪

...Ibara. Couldja take half of these bags?
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png

Aye aye! Since you've done quite the extravagant amount of shopping again, should I have all of this delivered back to the Reimei Academy dormitory?
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png

Well, you are members of Eden, so you could at least have someone else do those things for you!

There’s no need to do all these unnecessary, tedious things ourselves, right?

There are times I do wanna ask for help, ‘specially on days like these… But I just can’t bring myself to stop worrying with the amount of shady people loitering around, y’see?
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png

Worry not about that! If I were to oversee these arrangements, I shall see to it that the most trustworthy of personnel will be employed!
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png

The fact that you'll be the one taking care of things makes me even more skeptical.
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami School Dialogue Render.png

What’s this I hear? How harsh of you to say such things; nevertheless, that just means I am unworthy!
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa School Dialogue Render.png

I shall be wholeheartedly diligent enough to properly earn your trust! Salute~☆

In any case, His Excellency is waiting for us so let us hurry! I will lead the way! Your Highness Hiyori, shall I escort you? ♪

I'd rather you refrain from touching me, you viper.
 * Hiyori Tomoe School Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe School Dialogue Render.png

Eh~? Oh, please, gentlemen, aren’t we comrades? Please do put a little more faith in me ♪ ! colspan="2" style="text-align:center;background-color:#74325C; color:#FFFFFF;" |Location: Adam's Exclusive Room Heya, sorry for the wait.

We've changed in a jiffy into our exclusive Eve outfits now.

Look, we're keeping the Adam guys waiting, so can you please hurry it up, Ohii-san? Geez...

Hold on a minute! I really can't decide on a hairstyle for today — I'd also like to bring out the glow of my complexion, too.
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png

Huh? Isn’t that just your usual hairstyle...? Actually, why do you even bother to put in the effort to pretty yourself up when it’s just us today?
 * Jun Sazanami Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami Eve Dialogue Render.png

Eh~? I want to always look my most beautiful no matter the occasion, of course!
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png

That would be the finest weather there is...!

Gentlemen, my apologies for the wait! Thanks to how incredibly quickly you've arrived, we've somehow managed to proceed according to schedule! I thank you all for your effort!
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

That’s quite a lot of sarcasm I hear, isn't it? How vulgar... More importantly, Ibara-kun, where’s Nagisa-kun?
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png

Ah, it seems like His Excellency has recently taken interest in canvas painting.
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

The smell of oil-based paint is difficult to remove, so he’s taking a shower before changing into his costume.

He sure does change hobbies frequently, huh…
 * Jun Sazanami Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami Eve Dialogue Render.png

So right now it’s canvas painting. That time he got hooked on mountain climbing was kind of hectic—we even had to send in the search-and-rescue squad when he went missing, didn't we?

Rather than hobbies, I’d say for His Excellency, the desire to learn new things is instinctive in nature.
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

All of those will assimilate as a part of him, making him even stronger.

As of late, however, I’ve been the one to arbitrarily choose what he shall immerse himself in next.

He is steadily evolving in a good direction, so I hope you’ll look forward to His Excellency’s growth ♪

Hmm, I think you should let Nagisa-kun decide on what he wants to do. Then again, as long as it’s something new he has yet to know about, he’d love to try anything and everything.
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png

But tell me, are you really capable enough of handling him?

I guarantee you that I’m quite capable of controlling him, even if my life depends on it; he is our secret weapon afterall!
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

...Being called a “weapon”... I’m not sure how I should feel about that.
 * Nagisa Ran Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Nagisa Ran Adam Dialogue Render.png

Oh, Your Excellency! We’ve been waiting for your arrival! Come along now, right this way...☆
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

...Okay. Uhm, what was our work for today again?
 * Nagisa Ran Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Nagisa Ran Adam Dialogue Render.png

...It’s strange that the four of us are gathered here, yet we are wearing the exclusive costumes of our respective subunits.

Indeed! Adam and Eve join forces to become the unit Eden, and yet there aren’t many people aware of that!
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

If they only ever see either one but never both, we won’t garner the interest of a potentially new audience of people!

Following both subunits will heighten one's enjoyment of Eden - that is the sort of idea I aim to introduce to them!

If we manage to make either subunit popular, this synergy would immensely sky-rocket!

The first agenda we have to address for today is the magazine interview!

Adam and Eve will have their individual photoshoots, so I had everyone be in their respective costumes!

...I see. Since the four of us typically work together as Eden, I’m not used to seeing Eve in their exclusive costume.
 * Nagisa Ran Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Nagisa Ran Adam Dialogue Render.png

...It really suits you, Hiyori-kun.

Why, thank you! You look dazzling in that outfit too, Nagisa-kun ♪
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Hiyori Tomoe Eve Dialogue Render.png

Ahaha. The two of them certainly do get along well. Why don’t we learn a thing or two from them and become even closer as friends, Jun?
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

If you really wanna get along, then how ‘bout you start by showing me just what your true intentions are, yeah?
 * Jun Sazanami Eve Dialogue Render.png
 * Jun Sazanami Eve Dialogue Render.png

You do all your sneaky work from the shadows with such a fake smile on your face, so hearing you say you wanna be friends sounds like a load of bull.

...Ibara, is Autumn Live also a part of your business strategies too?

I dunno what kinda poison you’re planning to use, but don't do anything nasty to Trickstar; they’re nice guys, y’know~?

Hmmm~ They'll eventually be our fierce competitors in SS, so I'm afraid I can't promise you anything.
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png
 * Ibara Saegusa Adam Dialogue Render.png

Should we show our enemies mercy, we’ll be the ones who’d end up dead—that is common knowledge in the battlefield.

Well, like the snake I am, I inject my venom when I strike and devour them whole while they're paralyzed.

They'd be the perfect nourishment for us, and it'd be all for the sake of our glorious paradise.

Ah, such things can only be achieved with a shameless personality like my own!

Life must be so rough for people who actually have morals, so I'm truly glad that I'm such a Grade-A scumbag! Ahahaha ♪

You're aware of it and all and yet you're not repentant in the slightest... Ibara, you're not gonna make any friends that way, y'know...? ! colspan="2" style="text-align:center;background-color:#74325C;color:#FFFFFF;" |Translation: ! colspan="2" style="text-align:center;background-color:#74325C;color:#FFFFFF;" |Proofreading: |
