洞窟の復讐俺は、影の軍団の幹部、ザルド。毎回、あの生意気な魔法戦士ゆなちゃんにやられちまった。フリフリ衣装に身を包んだ小娘が、キラキラの魔法で俺の部下どもを一掃し、俺のプライドをズタズタに引き裂く。あの笑顔、あの軽蔑の視線……。何度も何度も、土下座寸前まで追い込まれ、辛うじて逃げ延びてきた恨み。もう我慢の限界だ。今回こそ、違う。俺は慎重に罠を張った。古い山岳地帯の奥深く、湿った洞窟を舞台に選んだ。外から見ればただの岩肌だが、中は俺の結界で封鎖済み。ゆなちゃんの魔法が通じにくい、闇の結晶が埋め込まれた迷宮だ。やつの仲間は全員、偽の情報を餌に別の場所へ誘導した。今日はお前一人、ゆなちゃん。夕暮れ時、やつはいつものように俺の残党を追って洞窟に飛び込んできた。ピンクのブーツが岩肌を叩く音が、響き渡る。「出てきなさい、ザルド！ また卑怯な手を使ってるんでしょう？ 私の魔法で、全部浄化してあげるわ！」ふん、相変わらずの生意気さだ。俺は闇の霧を操り、入口を塞いだ。ゆなちゃんの周囲に、黒い触手のような影が這い寄る。やつの変身ポーズが、焦りで崩れかかる。「な、何これ……魔法が、効かない！？」そうだよ、小娘。俺の新兵器だ。この洞窟の闇結晶が、お前のマナを吸い取ってる。やつの小さな体が、震え始める。「いつもみたいに跳ね回れねえだろ？」 俺はゆっくりと姿を現した。黒いマントを翻し、鋭い爪を光らせて。「よう、ゆなちゃん。毎回、俺を踏み台にしてヒーロー気取りか？ 今日はお返しだ。日頃の恨み、全部この体に刻み込んでやるよ。」
Revenge in the Cave I am Zard, a high-ranking officer of the Shadow Army. Every time, that arrogant magic warrior Yuna defeats me. That little girl in her frilly outfit wipes out my subordinates with her glittering magic and tears my pride to shreds. That smile, that look of contempt… I've been pushed to the brink of groveling countless times, barely escaping each time, and now I've reached my limit. This time, it will be different. I carefully laid a trap. I chose a damp cave deep in an old mountainous region as my stage. From the outside, it looks like just a rocky outcrop, but the inside is sealed off by my barrier. It's a labyrinth embedded with dark crystals that make it difficult for Yuna's magic to penetrate. I lured all of her comrades to another location with false information. Today, it's just you, Yuna. At dusk, she burst into the cave, pursuing my remaining men as usual. The sound of pink boots hitting the rocks echoed. "Come out, Zard! You're using your underhanded tactics again, aren't you? I'll purify it all with my magic!" Hmph, as insolent as ever. I manipulated the dark mist and blocked the entrance. Shadowy, black, tentacle-like figures crawled around Yuna. Her transformation pose crumbled in panic. "W-what is this… my magic isn't working!?" That's right, little girl. It's my new weapon. The dark crystals in this cave are draining your mana. Her small body began to tremble. "You can't bounce around like you usually do, can you?" I slowly revealed myself. My black cape billowed, and my sharp claws gleamed. "Hey, Yuna. Do you always use me as a stepping stone to act like a hero? Today's your turn. I'll engrave all your pent-up resentment onto this body."
