英訳ですv Here is an english translation, my apologies if there are any mistakes. --- SSR Decked Out Birthday Story NRC In School News Interview With the Birthday Person Special Feature ~Ruggie Ver.~ --- Story 1 --- Player> Happy Birthday! Thanks! Hehe, birthdays really are the greatest. On lots of other people's birthdays, I made sure to always give them a present. Of course, that was to celebrate their important birthday.... Not really, I did it because I know they would give me something in return for my birthday! Everyone here is a spoiled brat so the presents they give me cost a lot more than what I gave them in the first place. Last year, I got enough that I couldn't even hold all of it in both arms, so I'm looking forward to what's in store for this year~! Player> Could you tell us about a birthday memory you've had with your family. My family, huh.. Right after I was born my mom became another star in the sky, and my dad left saying he was going to work and never came back, so I don't exactly know where he is now... So if I had to say a memory, It's probably the time I've spent with my grandma. Back at home, we always had to worry about what to eat, so we couldn't buy a birthday cake or anything. So every year I looked forward to my grandma's hand made donuts. They were crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside! The taste was refreshing, I could eat it anytime! From the earnings I got from work, I was able to buy a few more expensive ingrediants like melted chocolate, or almonds. It made it seem a little more like an expensive treat. Even now that I'm able to buy a cake, I still always want to eat those donuts on my birthday. Player> Your grandma seems like an amazing person Hehe, right? She's really nice but also though, I'm proud that she's my grandma.! --- Story 2 --- Player> Could you tell us your favorite food? My number one favorite is those awesome donuts I talked about before! Well, unless it's not rotton I also like the bones of different meats, I'll be happy to eat that anytime! ...Huh? You think I was joking about that? Us hyenas have strong jaws, so we can bite through not only the meat but the bones too. If you still can't believe me, then next time buy me some meat with bones in it. I'll eat every single last bone right in front of you! Player> Do you have a thing you consider a precious item to you? MONEY! Player> Is there anything else besides that? Huhh.., I guess if I had to say another thing then.. I have this piggie bank that's shaped like a warthog. When I was little, I found it thrown away outside of some rich person's house, so I picked it up. I thought about selling it, but when I brought it to a second hand store they said it didn't have any value, so in the end I just kept it for myself. If you put coins in it, it makes a happy little sound. It was like it was celebrating with me everytime I saved up some money... I ended up really liking it after a while. I also heard that in the same series they have a meerkat version. Maybe one day I'll be able to get that one too and I can have both of them lined up. --- Story 3 --- Player> Could you tell us your thoughts about the leader of your dorm? Eh, you mean Leona-san? Well... He's always lived with servents to boss around, so he's really good at using other people. It's tough work being a servant, but I still get some merit from it, so there are some benifits for working hard. Player> What kind of merit? The first is the financial benifit of it. Leona-san just gives me things he doesn't want anymore... but it actually really helps alot! I keep the stuff I can use, and the other stuff, I find people who might want it and sell it to them--- I mean "gift it" to them. The second is the fact I get to learn something from it. In return for my work Leona-san teaches me stuff I didn't understand in class. Right before I entered Night Raven College, I only had the knowledge about things that were useful for staying alive... This so called "studying" thing, I had no idea how to do it at first, so my grades in the beggining were really bad off. But, Leona-san gave me some of his old books, and papers, and advice.... Now, my grades are just below average! Isn't that amazing though? Going from the worst of the worst to almost average was a lot of hard work~ In the end it's always important to be near someone with a lot of power. You always have to be on the look out to see if they can be of some sort of use to you in return. Player> Could you tell us about how you spend your holiday breaks? Hmm, after showing my face back home, I get absorbed into work. The ones where they pay for your food and a place to stay is good, even though there's a lot of work to do. In the summer, I work as staff for a resort resturant, in the winter, I work as a ski instructor at a ski mountain, ect... There's a lot of different faces that come and go, so it's interesting to get to meet new people. Thanks to that, I can do greatings and price negotiation in more than 10 different languages. I've even met some famous sourcerers too, so it's a good chance to makes some connections that might help later on! Player> Thank you for letting us hear about your different stories, and aswell, happy birthday!
