Thanks for the emergency translation.

There is a major problem with this chapter. While all of the characters are going through major emotional upheavals, the readers do not feel it. Until some of the mysteries are explained we are on the outside scratching our heads wondering why anybody is doing what they are doing. It is as if you find someone crying in a corner and you ask "what's wrong?" If the only answer you get is "Nothing" then the most you can do is feel bad that they feel bad, but you don't know whether their dog died, they got a B on a history quiz, or they have a week to live.

The only one we can sympathize with is Nagi who is willing to push his body to do anything it takes to protect the maidens no matter how crazy they act. From chapter 1 he has known they believe in fate. Soon he found out he was Dragon God and that they believe in self-sacrifice. But neither Nagi nor us can tell whether to be horrified or just confused.
