The sleepless night vents its anger on a lewd female cats in a back valley...
Ah...your invisible phantom arm is strangling your neck again...
as you, shrouded in your dream's fantasy, begin to break down in pain...
The sober intoxication tumbles the manor with a small attic back and forth...
Ah...the scorching pain in your invisible phantom arm...
is just phantom pain, but yet, you can no longer sleep without being intoxicated...

In an ancient feral forest at dusk...two men encountered each other on the battlefield...
One Laurant with blond hair...another also Laurant but with red hair...
One fight after another...the mountains of corpses keep growing higher and higher...
Who is the assailant...and who is the victim?
The blades shine in a maroon hue in the setting sun's shadow--

As one of his arms had been severed from him together with his good life,
he ended up losing his job, and his loved one had also left him...
It was the worst imaginable life, where he had lost everything,
but he lived on, all while constantly fearing more incoming sudden pains...

"More often than not...you have nightmares in your sleep and punch your fists around...
At this rate...I'm afraid I'll die under your fists someday...
Goodbye...I love you more than anyone else...but still...
it's impossible for you to become a good father to the unborn child in my belly..."

Ah...shattering the stillness of his dream...the one he fears is back again--

The image of that man riding on his horse...is truly like a nightmare...
with his hair down and disheveled...he wields the Grim Reaper's scythe...
The image of that man decapitating others...is truly resemblant of a red mill...
the extravagantly blooming red flowers...bestow upon him even more valor and power...
He quietly and lightly clocked himself in darkness--

Then, he wakes up from his dream, or maybe he's still in his dream,
so...since then his life has been filled with alcohol and madness...shrouded in endless pain.
The one who took his arm had a cross-shaped scar on his left cheek, red hair, and maroon eyes;
now his phantom arm throbs in pain, as though urging him to kill that bastard for revenge...
Who is the assailant...and who is the victim? Now find your grim reaper and bury him alive...
("koroshite

("Kill him...")

The knight returns to his horse's back...as time quietly passes, bringing changes to the world--
the two men, both named Laurant, ran into each other again at a bar in a distant land...
The red-haired man had only one eye and one arm, and was completely wasted...
Ah...there wasn't a single trace on him now of his savage valor from the past...
A third man suddenly jumped into the scene, holding a black blade.
The blood that began to spill everywhere was as red as wine.
As he stabbed his blade in...a flower--named "Good evening"-- was offered to the deities.
As he drew his blade back out...a poem--titled "Farewell"--was lit up.
The name of the felled man was Laurant... The name of the man who ran off was Laurencin...
There was one more Laurant, who merely stood on his spot still, dumbfounded...

Who is the assailant...and who is the victim? The number of victims only keeps on increasing...
The windmill of hatred...spins on and on...and it flickers and sways...like a flame...
Ah, in a column's shadow...was another youngster...who had been watching...with his maroon eyes...
("aa...jinsei

("Ah...One's life is beyond one's control...
Even so...this pain in my invisible arm...is proof that I have lived...")

With the curtains of his revenge lowered...the man begins pondering...
The other arm left on me...the life left to me...and their invisible meaning--
The taste of this full cup of wine...soaked in and stung my heart...
