TX's translated stories

I just had some time to read through the latest, and it's really interesting so far! After watching the Missing Year animations, I always wanted to know more about Nephilim and Grimoire. I love that Masuda is involved here too. (I studied anthropology and archaeology in college, so I'm excited to see his character being developed more.)

Thank you for your support of our project, glad you're interested, we'll do an integration when episode1 (I mean this story) is over!
Also, nice to meet someone (even a professional) interested in archaeology

"Mom," Nephilim yelled, wrapping her arms around her mother
"Ah, Nephy, you're finally back, where have you been? Is it Daddy's again?"
"Goodbye Neph, goodbye Namiki (Nephilim mother)" said kelisi
After kelisi was gone, Nephilim said to her mother
"Mom, Dad received a big cross today. Is that the gift he kept talking about?"
Namiki pondered for a while and said, "Yes, but he should study how to play with this thing, alright, let's eat first!"

In the middle of the meal, Nephilim kept asking about zohar, but Namiki only answered some questions. The rest of the time, she just lowered her head and seemed to be thinking about many things. Suddenly, she looked up and asked, "Nephy, do you remember who gave the "gift"?"
Nephilim was suddenly stopped, and after thinking for a while, she said, "I don't remember his name, but it seems that he was born in the same country as you and speaks very poor English (actually, I want to Use "English with Japanese style" but in order not to cause too much trouble for the translated tomxie, so don't use //// what tomxie said in translation: not much trouble)."
"Are you Japanese? It's weird, why are you sending those people to Africa to dig? Wait a minute, Nephy, you stay at home by yourself at night, reading books, movies, etc. I'll go out at night, and be sure to come back before going to bed? "
"Ah? Are you going out tonight? Well, can you tell me where to go?"
"No, you don't care about this, okay?"
"Okay, then I must come back before I go to bed!"

After dinner, Namiki hurriedly packed up and left the house. She made a phone call, and five minutes later, an all-black car pulled up beside her and picked her up.
After arriving at Vector's laboratory, she immediately found Grimoire behind the experimental equipment, "Can you please explain what's going on? You said it won't continue after it gets here! You said you wouldn't be doing research! You've been working on it for 5 years! Excuse me, have you ever really been a father since Nephy got sensible? Did you?" Namiki asked angrily. Tears flowed from her eyes.
While she was yelling, Grimoire didn't say a word, just lowered her head and listened to her yell.
"Namiki, I, I just want to keep going, I, you know, the last person didn't want to take on such a dangerous mission" he said incoherently
"You said that this thing is so dangerous, well, even if I can't stop you, I want to know, where did the person who sent this thing come from?"
"He came from Japan, and is an archaeological team hired by William himself!" He regained his sanity. "Namiki, please go back first, please, let's calm down first, please? Please protect yourself in the days to come. , teach Nephy, thank you, thank you"
"But, forget it, I'll take a tour and go, I want to see what the hell you're up to!"

When I got home, Nephilim was already on the bed, "I knew you'd be back very late!"
"I'm sorry Neph, I really didn't mean it, but, you see, I still came back on time, didn't I?" Namiki said and hugged Nephilim, "I love you, good night"
"I love you too, Mom!"

Off topic:
Sorry, it took us a long time to update, we are all preparing for an important exam these days, it is very important for our junior year! However, we will still try our best to complete ep1 before July!(And our website may finish at that time!)
Namiki finally showed up, actually I saw the shadow of my family in her and Neph's father when I was in college, my mother had to go to another province to live and work, actually I haven't seen her for three years, I miss her so much she.
Still thank you readers for your support, thank you!

With Wagner's music on Tristan und Isolde, the door to William's office is pushed open.
"Long time no see, Yeshua, I'm looking forward to seeing you again" William said without looking back
"Really? I don't want to see you again at all," a voice came from the door: "But I had to come to you because of something." The next second, he was already sitting beside William.
"You and I both know what's going on, and I don't want to give any explanation for it, but if it's just reminiscing about the past and talking about it (tomxie: I can only translate it like this, the original writing brush uses a local Chinese dialect, I can't Exact translation, sorry), then please, I'm still relatively free," William said, touching chaos's snow-white hair.
"I don't want to hear you say so much, please think about how to explain it, and I beg you to stop!" Chaos shook his head and said.
William stood up, looked out the window, pointed to a towering building and said, "chaos, your character really matches your name, it's so noisy (here writing brush uses a Chinese character) Homophonic, the pronunciation of chaos is more "noisy" in Chinese) Do you think you can stop? Do you remember what the world looked like when you were standing with Maria? You—"
"Don't mention the name!" Chaos said angrily.
"Well, I just wanted to say that it only took them 2500 years to develop like this, even if I stop them, they will just try to change places or do other things, I can't stop them, only sometimes , you know, 'save' them"
"Really?" Chaos lowered his head and said disappointedly, "Well then, I'll go back, goodbye, this is another disappointing meeting!"
"No, I have an idea, you can try to help me, very simple, be a character in my script! You can try to watch over them, protect them can't you?" William came to him again.
"...I think about it, I'll come back to you when I'm done, can I make preparations first?" Chaos lowered his head and said, the morning light of the sunrise shone on his hair, forming a false image 's halo.
"Will we meet again in a few years? Ah, are you gone? Didn't you even say goodbye? Well, goodbye" When William turned his head, chaos had disappeared.

With the sound of the alarm clock, Grimoire looked at Zohar, who was dressed in golden light, and picked up the coffee cup at hand, but it seemed that there was only the residue left over from yesterday. He put down the cup, looked at Zohar again, and looked directly at the eye-like thing in the middle. "Will I deal with you in the days to come." He looked at Zohr and said.

"Goodbye Nephy, study hard" Namiki shouted, looking at Nephilim's figure walking away.
"Ok mom, goodbye" Nephilim also called to her mom, the sun forming a halo all over her body, like a shadow, flawless but out of reach.

Off topic:
I'm sorry, there are a lot of Chinese sentences that are difficult to translate in the article. The writing brush is just to make it more suitable for the Chinese language when it is published on some Chinese websites, but if it causes incomprehensible phenomena, I am very sorry.

Me and writing brush may be delayed in future updates, we need to prepare for our sophomore final exam, sorry

I like the way this is going! The language differences made sense with your explanations, and I always think it's interesting to learn about idioms and wordplay in other languages. I also love the parallels with the halo imagery at the end of both scenes.
 
Grimoire looked around, but no one seemed to be watching. He walked down the stairs gently and came to the isolation door.
"Please enter your password," said a mechanical voice.
"Ye shall be as gods" Grimoire whispered.
"Come in" the isolation door opened, accompanied by a piercing siren.
"Hope no one hears this." Grimoire entered the isolation room and locked the door.
For the first time, he looked up at this huge golden object, and he was deeply shocked.
For a time, he was speechless with excitement. He only felt that the whole room seemed to be twisted and filled with golden light. He was surrounded by this layer of light. Zohar's eyes were the bottom of the valley covered by clouds and mist, and just as he was about to jump down, a very young voice woke him up.
"Don't touch it, if you still want to hug your wife and daughter at night, your daughter is very young and she won't want to lose you!"
Grimoire turned to see a man in orange with white eyebrows and hair.
"How did you get here?" Grimoire retracted his hands and body, how did you get in, he looked at the locked door, "and how did you know that I would touch it Something happened?"
"I'm just here to remind you, protect you," Chaos said, and walked to the gate, and the alarm sounded again.
"Wait a minute, come back to me!" Grimoire yelled and ran after him.
Suddenly, a white light flashed before his eyes.

"Dad, Daddy" When he woke up, a familiar voice came from his ear (original: a young but mature voice, I don't know how this contradictory expression is, but you can judge for yourself). There was still a tear streak on Nephilim's face, but when he saw his father woke up, he burst into laughter (exaggerated?).
"Darling, you finally woke up," said Namiki, who was holding Nephilim by the side. "Nephy and I are both worried. I'm afraid something will happen to you."
"What's wrong?" Grimoire asked in confusion.
"You fainted on the table, Kelisi called you for a long time, and you didn't wake up, he notified the hospital to pick you up. You are too tired, rest for a few days, let the whole laboratory rest. A few days." Namiki said.
"Yes, everyone is too tired"

In the evening, at dinner, everyone hardly said a word, and only when Nephilim was really bored would he talk about what happened at school today.
"It's interesting, they-" Before she could finish, she was interrupted by her mother and asked, "Nephy's math test today, how did you do?" (Why are parents all over the world the same?)
"Fortunately, 117/120 looks like, I only got one multiple choice question wrong" (I answered my mother like this most of the time when I was in junior high school.)
"Why was it wrong? Wasn't it because of carelessness?"
"Stop asking that kind of question, okay? I'm so annoyed!" Nephilim replied angrily.
But Grimoire doesn't seem interested in participating in the conversation at all. He just sat there, finished his dinner quickly, and prepared to go upstairs to his room.

In the evening, when he heard the bell rang at 10:00, he realized that it was now ten o'clock. He recalled the thoughts just now and went downstairs, "But what happened? It feels like the memory has been cut off. the same"

After arriving in Nephilim's room, he slowly came to the head of the bed.
"Dad, don't forget to take me to the park tomorrow Saturday!" Nephilim said, opening his eyes
"Okay, Nephy, but do the nucleic acid test first in the morning!" Grimoire said, looking at Nephilim's cyan eyes, which always seemed to remind him of something.

"Come on, Masuda, I don't want to be late because of your slowness," Lucas said angrily.
"I really have it as soon as possible!"
Lucas pushed open a door, and inside was a large round table, surrounded by 5 or 6 people.
"Okay, let me introduce an "expert" solemnly." Lucas pointed to Masuda and said: "Dr.Masuda"
. . . . . . .
Finally, Lucas said: "Well, from now on, I will carry out the supervision and intervention of the researchers who are Grimoire"

A few days later:
"Okay Nephy, here we are, where are you going first?" Grimoire said at the park gate.
"So, why don't you go rowing first? Okay, Mom?"
"Of course, you can do whatever you want today, and I will definitely accompany you."
"OK!"
In the boat, Nephilim looked around as he rocked the oars. One time, my mother would give her some bread to feed the fish, and another time I would ask her mother to give her a camera.
Meanwhile, Grimoire just stared absently at the lake. He noticed that people in a small boat seemed to be staring at them all the time.
"Dad, can you help me with that lens over there?" Nephilim removed the original 24-70 lens and said to her father while installing the front and rear covers: "It's the 100-200 at your feet."
But Grimoire did not look back, only in thought. It wasn't until Nephilim called him frantically for the fourth time that he realized his daughter was calling him and asked "Nephy, what are you calling me for?"
"I asked you to hand over the lens at your feet, thank you, what's wrong with you today? I even think you might as well not come out and waste your time, might it be better to do those in the lab? A boring experiment?"
"Nephilim Verum, I tell you, you can't talk like that to your father! This is extremely bad behavior, you know that father paid for our family" Namiki was very angry after hearing what Nephilim said to her father. Criticized Nephilim.
"But-" Nephilim was about to say something, but after seeing the change in her mother's face, she changed her sentence instantly; "I'm sorry dad"
"It's alright, it's alright Nephy." Grimoire didn't pay much attention to the words, and went back to a brooding state.
After that, until the boat stopped on the shore, almost everyone didn't speak much. Only the occasional sound of focusing, dials, and shutter sounded in the quiet atmosphere.
After pulling the boat to the shore, they were about to move on, but Nephilim seemed to have thought of something, so she let her parents sit on the bench, and she found a suitable position and adjusted various parameters. Just when she was about to press the shutter, Lucas, who was observing from a distance, came over and said to her, "Why don't you go and sit with your parents, I'll help you."
"Okay, thank you," Nephilim said happily.
After Nephilim was seated between her parents, Lucas, after focusing, pressed the shutter.
"It was a great shot," Nephilim and Namiki said after watching, but Gorimoire answered the phone from afar
"Where, the little girl's skills are good and the parameters are adjusted well," Lucas said
"thanks"

When they came to Grimoire, Nephilim asked: "What's the matter, father, you look a little anxious"
"Nephy, I may not be able to stay with you anymore, something happened in the lab and I need to go."
"What, didn't you promise to be with us today? How could you be like this, you, woohoo, hate it," Nephilim cried as he spoke.
"Nephy, okay, Dad didn't mean it, I'll be with you next time!" Grimoire comforted her as she hugged Nephilim and stroked her hair.
"You said so clearly, when is the next time? Will there be another time?" Nephilim asked angrily, along with her cries.
"Okay, Nephy, Dad won't just go there." Namiki touched Nephilim's head and said, "Okay, bye GZrimoire."

By 10 p.m., when Grimoire returned home, Namiki was sitting at the dining table waiting for him.
"Namiki, I'm sorry, I'm back late"
"It's alright, you don't have to apologize to me, think about how to comfort your daughter first."
"What's wrong with her?" Grimoire asked with concern
"She was very angry. After she came back, she kept crying. She didn't even eat dinner, so she went to bed early, but she was still lying on the bed. She couldn't fall asleep and ignored me."
Grimoire went upstairs and into Nephilim's room. He saw Nephilim lying on his side on the bed, sobbing non-stop, tears soaking her pillow.
"Nephy sorry"
"Go away and leave me alone." Nephilim didn't turn around.
"Then, I'm sorry, if you really want to criticize me, just say it, it's fine."
Nephilim turned, and Grimoire could clearly see her red eyes and the tears on her face.
"Can you just leave me alone?"
"Okay, then I'll go downstairs first. If you have anything to say to me, you can also say it to me tomorrow morning."

I don't know how long it has been since we updated, but our school is on vacation now, and writing brush has more time to write! Thank you for reading and liking, we are working hard in a more perfect direction!
 
Back in time a few hours ago. Grimorie had just arrived at the lab.
"Has the same situation happened again?" Grimoire asked, looking at the data-filled expression.
"Yes, and this time it's even bigger"
"Then have you tried the suppression method we studied together last time?" Grimoire had already started to operate on the console.
"I tried it, but it didn't work, so ask if you have any other methods." The other experimenters also assisted him wholeheartedly. After trying many methods, some of zohar's indexes finally dropped, and Grimoire and other experimenters breathed a sigh of relief.
"By the way, Doctor, you came in time. I thought you would only give instructions remotely!"
"How is it possible, this kind of thing must be handled faster by yourself!"
"Then what were you doing before? It's Saturday, you can't be ready to come here all the time, right?" Kelisi asked curiously. K
"I've been playing with my wife and daughter in the park, but you call, I can't ignore it, right?"
"Hey, then I shouldn't have disturbed you, are you having fun?"
Grimoire thought back a bit and said, "No, probably not very happy, especially when Nephy got very angry when she knew I was going. But I didn't know how to comfort her at the time, so I went first."
"Oh, I shouldn't have called you, maybe we can handle it ourselves," Kelisi said regretfully.
"It's okay it's okay."

"Doctor, someone is looking for you and is already sitting in the meeting room."
"Who else is coming to see me at this time..."
When he entered the room, he saw a young man sitting there, looking at a photo in his hand. Grimoire glanced at it and was instantly stunned. Above are his daughter Nephilim and his wife Namiki, sitting on a bench by the lake, Nephilim laughs happily, wraps her arms around her mother and rests her head in Namiki's arms, Namiki also smiles and wraps one arm around her 's daughter, a hand gently stroked Nphilim's head.
"You are! What do you want to do?" Grimoire asked angrily, returning to his senses.
"Relax Grimoire, it's no use being angry here, isn't it?" Lucas said to Grimoire without even looking up.
"Quickly tell me what you want!" Grimoire yelled at him
"Hey, so boring? Well, I'm here to stop you, warn you, and guide you, of course, if you're still thinking about catching me or kicking me out, that's likely I'll turn into hurting you." Lucas finished his last words, took out his pistol, and aimed it at Grimoire.
"Put the gun down, can you be more detailed?"
"Hey, I just wanted to say, the research you and your team is doing is dangerous, no matter who it is, it's dangerous, stop now, or it's very likely that "we" will take some measures"
"First of all, I don't think it's possible for me to stop my research just because of what you said. Second, "you" mean?"
"Is that so? Well, whatever you want. But you must spend more time with your family, your daughter is so cute and smart, her name is Nephilim? Strange name. And so is your wife Be considerate. Hahaha, you may not have much time to spend with them, or maybe to see them!" With that, Lucas threw the photo to Grimoire and walked out of the room laughing.
Watching him go away, Grimoire fell into thought, and saw the picture on the table again. Inside, Nephilim and Namiki's hair was intertwined by the wind, with ginger and brown strands interspersed and dancing with the wind. "Nephy, Namiki, sorry"
Grimoire then got up and left the room, and when he went out, he called out, "Kelisi, how's the situation?"

I just finished reading everything so far, and this is a really neat story! It makes sense that there'd be multiple agendas regarding the Zohar research. And it's nice to see Nephilim as a normal child, and to see the strain that Grimoire's work places on his family.

And I am happy to be of assistance! 😁
 
"Dad, you're back!" Seeing Grimoire walk into the house, Nephilim shouted to his mother very happily: "Mum, Dad, he's back! He's back today!"
"Okay Nephy, it's been a long time since I came back, is it necessary to be so excited?" Grimoire said to Nephilim with a smile.
"But...you don't come back very often?" Namiki said as he walked downstairs.
"Then can we go out for dinner? It's definitely too late to do it now."
"OK!"
So, the family took a car and went to the nearest restaurant.

At the dinner table, while Nephilim and Namiki were both eating quickly, Grimoire seemed to be thinking about something, not eating much, just thinking about something.
"Dad, aren't you hungry? It's not too late to think about your experimental data after eating something!"
"No, Nepilim, please don't bother me, I'm thinking about something."
"Ugh..." Seeing her father's resolute attitude, Nephy didn't say anything, just lowered her head and ignored Grimoire.
Namiki, on the other hand, has been looking at Grimoire with great concern.
"What the hell is wrong with you, Grimoire? Is there something wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"It's okay dear, I'm just thinking about something, you can eat it first"

At night, Namiki came to Nephilim's bed as usual to say goodnight to her.
"Mom, Dad's situation is not very good today. I feel like he has been absent-minded all the time."
"Well, he must have encountered something, you should leave it alone for now. Good night Nephy," Namiki said, kissing Nephilim's forehead.
"Good night, Mom"
Then, Namiki turned off the lights and the door.

In the dark, Nephilim tossed and couldn't sleep, thinking about what happened to her father's relief.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she got out of bed, quietly opened the door, and ran across the corridor barefoot, without making a sound, to the door of Grimoire's room, secretly listening to what her mother and father were saying. . . .


On the other side, Lucas returned to the base. Angrily, he threw his backpack on the sofa.
"Okay, Grimoire.", he yelled, "You are so stubborn and ignoring me, affecting my position in the organization, I will make you lose the things you hold most dear!"
After speaking, he picked up a bullet and pierced Namiki's left chest in the photo.
Then, he sat down at the table and began to formulate the next action plan.

Off topic:
Uhhh, school has started, and we are going back to the familiar ZJU campus. . . But I'm sure our updates will also be more punctual. But due to "network reasons", our update on AO3 may not be so timely, please understand.
 
"But there's nothing I can do, that person is obviously here to threaten me on the condition of hurting you."
"But according to you, you can't stop your research, right?"
"Yes..."

"What's going on? Why would someone come to harm us, neither did Mom nor I do anything wrong?" Nephilim, thinking in horror, didn't notice that Grimoire had come to open the door.
"Ah——" With a scream, Nephilim, who was lying on the door panel, was slammed open, and he lost his footing and fell to the ground. She felt pain all over her body, and seeing her father found herself eavesdropping. I suddenly cried.
Grimoire saw it, and hurriedly picked her up and put her on his bed. Namiki saw it and asked what was going on, and Grimoire told Namiki how he found out Nephilim was eavesdropping.
Looking at Nephilim who was still crying, Namiki said to her: "Nephy, don't be afraid, it will be alright? Dad, he will protect us well!" He wiped the tears from Nephilim's face with his hands.
After listening to Namiki's words, Nephilim sobbed and asked, "But Dad won't be around us all the time?"
"Then you don't have to worry." Looking into Nephilim's eyes, Namiki took a deep breath, hugged Nephilim, and said in her ear, "Even if my father can't protect you well, I will use my life to make sure you won't accept it. To hurt!"
After speaking, Namiki also shed a few tears, while Nephilim buried his head in her mother's chest, feeling very warm and tender.
"Woo woo, mom. You, woo, don't do this, woo woo, I just want you to live well, I think we can both live well together, woo woo"

Digression: Some people have to finish writing what they say, but I still have to write it in the end
 
Today is September 10th, which is also the Mid-Autumn Festival on our side. Taking this into account, writing brush has written a very short Mid-Autumn Festival feature.
"Good morning Nephy, are you asleep yet?" Namiki asked with concern as her daughter came downstairs.
"Yeah," Nephilim replied casually, but then saw the big moon cakes on the table and asked Namiki happily, "Mom, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, right?"
"Yes, so I bought a big moon cake, but it's delicious, and it has fillings of all flavors!"
"Haha, okay, okay, so do we have to wait until night to eat? Can we eat half of the day and half of the night?"
"Of course!" Seeing the excited expression on Nephilim's face, Namiki said the second half of the sentence: "As long as you can make the moon rise once in the morning"
"Hate! Mom, how can you say that? I'm ignoring you."

Finally, Nephilim managed to stay up all night, and after helping her mother put and arrange all the utensils, she happily sat in her chair and ate something.
"Nephilim, you can't start eating before everyone arrives."
"Huh? Are we both here?"
"Have you forgotten me?" A voice sounded, and Nephilim felt herself being picked up. When she saw the brick, she shouted happily: "DADDDDD!"

At night, Nephilim did it on Grimoire's lap, and nestled inside his poster, looking up at the big, yellow moon.
"Nephy, here's a piece of five kernels (a mix of peanuts and sesame seeds)"
"Thank you!" Nephilim took a big bite, but then spit it out: "How can it be so hard? Like a rock!"
"Then try this piece?" and cut another piece and handed it to her.
"This is?"
"Stone stuffed!" Looking at Nephilim's horrified expression, Namiki laughed: "No, no, it's Su-style."
"Delicious!" Nephilim finished the piece quickly and was ready to eat the next.
"Nephy, do you want to go to the moon?"
"No, I never thought about it, and I don't want to go there. Why go anywhere else when it's so comfortable on Earth?" She looked at the moon again and said, "And, there is such a beautiful moon on the moon again. scene?"
. . . . . .

It's a very short chapter, and it doesn't have anything to do with the previous content, but the writing brush thought of writing a random article.
By the way, I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
 
I love these affectionate moments between Nephilim and her family! Seeing more of their daily life adds a lot to the emotional impact of the main story. The details about the Mid-Autumn Festival are also really interesting, and the food sounds wonderful. Hope you're enjoying the festival too!
 
Thank you, I also love the scene where they are together. Well, since we just wanted to do an exercise-like writing for the first chapter part, just trying to write something that moves the plot fast. To be honest, I haven't actually written such a long thing before, basically it is an article that ends with 2-3000 Chinese characters. So maybe it's a little bit frustrating on this super long (long for me) article. In the second part of the chapter I will try to write more words about this kind of family drama!
Well, Mid-Autumn Festival is our favorite festival, it symbolizes family reunion, at least on our side. Su-style mooncakes are delicious, but I don't like Wuren very much. As written in the article, everyone thinks it is as hard as a rock.
