English Card of the Day: Blaster Blade Liberator

ブラスター・ブレード・解放者 Blaster Blade, Liberator

"The light of courage illuminates the future! Shine forth, Blaster Blade!"

神聖国家第二正規軍“ゴールドパラディン”の騎士にして、一度は伝説の先導者として覚醒を果たした英雄。 騎士王たっての願いにより、正規軍となったて間もない“ゴールドパラディン”に所属を移し「解放者」の称号を受け、騎士団最強の剣士として見事復帰を果たす。 騎士王の懐刀としての任を全うしつつ、若き戦士達の指南を行うなど多忙な日々を送っていたが、そんな状況下にあっても、彼が自身の修練を怠る事は決して無かった。 今思えば、彼はその鋭敏な感覚で、クレイに蔓延りだした違和感を感じ取っていたのかもしれない。 そして、騎士王と共に“ジェネシス”に赴いた彼を待っていたのは、予見された未来の映像――「絶望」に堕ちたクレイの変わり果てた姿だった。 迫りくる脅威を祓い、未来の「絶望」を「希望」に変える為、光の勇者は再び、勇気の剣を手にする。

The hero who at one time awakened as the legendary “Vanguard”, he has since been made a knight in the Sanctuary’s second standing army: “The Gold Paladins”. Despite his glorious return as the Knights’ greatest swordsman and being a part of the original army, in response to the wishes of his friend, the King of Knights, and having been bestowed the title of “Liberator”, he transferred to the Gold Paladins. Fulfilling his duty as the right-hand man of the King of Knights, he spends day-in and day-out teaching the inexperienced young warriors, and despite all this, he still keeps up on his own training. In hindsight, this was a keen decision, as he might of been sensing the unease beginning to spread across Cray once more. Going with the King of Knights to “Genesis”, what awaited the two of them was a vision of the future.. .. … It was an image of the whole of Cray fallen into the darkest depths of “Despair”. Carrying the sword of courage in his hand, the hero of light once again plans to expel the looming threat, and change the future of despair into a future of hope.

【解放者（リベレイター）】

神聖国家第二正規軍“ゴールドパラディン”の中から選ばれた、国と星を守る使命を騎士王より託された者達の総称。 悪しき者の手から全てを解き放つという意を込めて「解放者」と名付けられた。 称された者は周囲から新時代の導き手と呼ばれている。 “ゴールドパラディン”の若き戦士達が構成の中心だが、歴戦の勇士である“ロイヤルパラディン”の戦士からもある程度抜擢されているという。

The Liberators

The general term for those chosen from the second standing army of United Sanctuary, “The Gold Paladins”, they are the few that the King of Knights has entrusted with the mission of protecting not only the Sanctuary, but the entire world of Cray. They were named the “Liberators” because they liberate all who have been ensnared by the schemes of the wicked. Those with the title are said to be the guiding hand of the new era. At the center of the group are the young warriors who saved the day, known as the “Gold Paladins”, but some of their number are battle-scarred veterans who were handpicked for the job.
