Opening: Come! An Invitation to Edo
Translation notes
[1] オーエド町 (ōedo-chou) is the way it's written in-game. For historical context, the original name of modern Tokyo was Edo (江戸). When the Tokugawa shogunate took control of Japan in 1603, they established their capital in Edo, and enlarged the city by constructing a castle. According to Japanese Wikipedia, the name "Greater Edo" (大江戸, ōedo) eventually came into use to refer to the enlarged extents of the city.
Scene: A field in the countryside.
The members of the Weissflugel Landsol Branch were out with Yuuki, gathering materials for a request.
Monika
All we've been doing are these gathering requests today... I wonder when we'll get to do some monster suppression-type ones...
Kuuka
B-But I actually kind of like this work... Every so often, my arm gets tangled up in some tentacle-like vines...
Kuuka
Ahh, just come and tie me up from behind already...! With so much force that I won't be able to tear them off, no matter how much I struggle... If that happens to me outside, of all places, I'll... I'll...!!
Ayumi
K-Kuuka, are you okay!? I'll untangle you right now!
Kuuka
Haa, haa... T-Thank you. But I wouldn't have minded if you'd waited a bit longer to... No! Let's just leave it at that!
Ninon
... K-Kuuka is saying things I do not understand, but I also enjoy this work surprisingly!
Monika
It's not that I really hate it, either... But if all we're doing is collecting materials day after day, then I can't help but feel a little desolate, speaking as a proud soldier of Weissflugel...
Yuki
Well, you are a soldier yourself, Monika, so you have a different way of life from us. And this is one of those differences, isn't it? For me, the pursuit of my own beauty comes before all else!
Monika
...!? Y-You're right... I'm the only soldier here...
Yuuki
1. "What's the matter?"
2. "If you're tired, how about I carry you?"
Option 1.
Monika
Ah... No, it's nothing. Nothing at all...
Option 2.
Monika
D-Do you think I'm a child who gets tired on long outings...!? I'm not tired or anything, so there's no need to carry me!
End of branches.
Ayumi
Ah, but we've gained a lot of nice things from completing so many requests!
Yuki
Thanks to all of the rewards, we should have plenty of funds for our guild activities. ... Though you never let me know the exact amount.
Monika
If I were to let you know, then you'd probably spend it all on yourself. But it's true that, since our main activities have shifted to gathering, we've made quite a bit of money.
Yuki
Well, we simply must do something with all of these excess funds. Why don't we use it to improve my beauty even further?
Monika
Why does it have to be that!? There are definitely ways to spend it that would benefit the guild more!
Yuki
But increasing my beauty... That would benefit the guild... And not just that, but the entire world!
Ayumi
W-Well, there is a little sense to what Yuki's saying. If we have so much extra money, then wouldn't it be all right to spend it on some leisure? We could all go on an excursion somewhere, together.
Monika
No, rather than just going out to play, we should really put it towards furthering our training...
Ninon
I agree with Ayumi! I would like to go seeing the sights together with everyone!
Kuuka
I-I also agree... Ahh! I-I w-wanna come...!!
Yuki
L-Looks like she got tangled up again... But anyway, I'll also be going with everyone, of course.
Yuuki
1. "It looks like everyone wants to go on a trip."
2. "Do you not want to have fun with the others, Monika?"
Option 1.
Monika
Sigh... I guess I can't argue. Certainly, having some leisure every so often is also important.
Monika
I just wonder how long it will take for my guild's reputation to reach this country, at this rate...
Option 2.
Monika
T-That's not what I mean, I was just pointing out that there are other things we ought to be doing.
Monika
... But it does seem like I'm just raining on everyone's parade here.
End of branches.
Monika
All right, as the commander here, if everyone agrees to participate in special training after we get back, then I'll permit this trip.
Yuki
Special training... Well, if it allows us to spend some money on fun, then I'll endure it.
Yuki
But in exchange, we simply must go to a place with some stunning scenery. A place with beauty to rival even my own!
Ayumi
A-As long as Yuuki's there, I'll go anywhere... Ah, but, if it's possible, I'd like somewhere romantic. In a place like that, Yuuki would be even more of a radiant sight to look at...!
Kuuka
I'd like... somewhere without too many people. Oh, but if I get humiliated by Mister Sadist in a place with lots of people watching... If everyone sees me like that... T-That would also be good...
Ayumi
Monika, what kind of place would you like?
Monika
I-I might like... somewhere with tasty sweets...
Ayumi
Eh? Um, sorry, you were talking kind of quietly...
Monika
N-Never mind! I'm okay with anywhere that you all want to go!
Ayumi
I-Is that right...? But that might be hard... We're all hoping for different things already, and I can't see how to combine them...
Monika
You're right -- just when we were all ready to go out together, too. If only there was a place that could satisfy everyone's preferences...
Ninon
Heh heh heh... Then, please, allow me to organize the preparations for our raid!
Monika
Now that you mention it, we haven't heard from you yet, Ninon. Is there somewhere that you want to go?
Ninon
The place where I would like to go is the same as all of your requests... A place with beautiful scenery, without many people, and also romantic -- a place with everything!
Monika
But the trouble is, there isn't a place like that... Wait, Ninon, do you mean you have somewhere in mind?
Ninon
I have it! Its name is... Edo![1]
Yuki
Edo? I've never heard that name.
Ayumi
What kind of place is it?
Ninon
You will have to look forward to seeing it yourselves!
