Big Love From Ultra Deep Space ch10: A Normal Girl

p1

Princess Lulucielamo!!
Don't touch me! Back off!! Shit...
Please listen to me!

It's okay, Lulu.
Come on. Don't cry...

Another marriage proposal?
From the emperor of Regnyutz?
She never learns her lesson...

p2

It's okay, Lulucielamo.
There's nothing for you to worry about.
Your mother, father and big sisters will all protect you.

...Aah.

I can't breathe...

p3

A quiet terrarium with a faint bit of photosynthesis.

p4

Wha-

What's with this chick...?

I called her a chick,
but she said she's here to pick up Lulu,
so maybe they're acquaintances...?

Princess Lulucielamo!!!

p5

I know you're in there!!
Please show me your cute face!

I came such a long way to see you!
If you don't come out,

my finger might slip
and I'll end up obliterating all life in this area.

...What is this chick saying?
Lulu, we'd better get outta here for now.
We should call the friendship association too...

p6

...Lulu?
...She is
the emperor of a planet known as Regnyutz.

We met at a party during my childhood.
Ever since, she has been asking for my hand in marriage time and time again,
but I have refused on every occassion.

The way she likes to rule over others using military force
was terrifying to me...

...
My family, taking pity on me,

p7

sent me to Earth as a bride.

They thought that if I went to a far off planet as an official bride,
the emperor would not be able to reach me so easily...

Ten-sama.

I am sorry for not telling you...
the reason I came to Earth as a bride.
But please do not misunderstand.

p8

I truly wanted
to be your bride, Ten-sama.

...But in the end, it just got you caught up in all of this.

In which case,
there is something I must do.
Wha-...

Hey, wait!!
Don't go, Lulu!!

You don't need to do this...
No.

p9

This current situation
is the result of Anukamula looking down on that girl's tenacity.
I need to take responsibility
as the sole Anukamulian here on Earth

and the princess of Anukamula.

...Please do not look so glum.

p10

It will be okay.
You will just be returning to a peaceful life
that is a little different from before.

You are
not alone anymore.

Well then, Ten-sama,

it was short... but it was fun while it lasted.
Good day to you!

p11

...I need to stop her.

But
what do I do after that?
I don't
have status like a princess
or any strange powers.

p12

Princess Lulucielamo.
Long time no see.
I am extremely delighted to see you.

...What is that?
This scene straight out of a sci-fi movie that you'd never see in real life
really drives home how powerless I am.
...Isn't this pretty bad?
Seeing that girl burdened with the fate of an entire planet
makes me aware that we're hopelessly different beings.

p13

Chasing after her and stopping her
won't accomplish anything.
What could I even do?
What could someone like me
possibly...

p14

Ah.

I'm such an embarrassment.

p15

I've been so hung up
on how kind, strong and dazzling that girl is,
that I haven't been looking at her at all.

Even though I should've been thinking of her as "a normal girl"!

p16

She's a princess? She's from a different planet?
I'm the last person who should be using that as an excuse not to look at her!!

The planets we were born on.
Our statuses.
Our personalities.
So many things.
Even though they're all so different,
she still tried to understand me!

p17

I wanted to understand that girl too, didn't I...!?

"What could I even do?"
Screw that!
I can do it!

p18-19

Reaching my hand out to that scared girl is the least I can do!
Lulu!!!

p20

Wha-...
What are you doing!?
You could have gotten hurt...
I had a feeling you'd catch me.

p21

...Hey, Lulu.

It's okay to say you're scared when you're feeling scared.

The Lulu I know
is a normal girl who loves delicious food
whose ever-changing expressions are charming.

I don't want a peaceful life that I have to trade you for.
I may not have much power,
but I'm not gonna ignore you when you're so scared, Lulu.

p22

Please let me get a good look
at who you are.

p23

Ah...
Princess Lulucielamo.
...Have you finished your goodbyes yet?

I was feeling sorry for that weak lifeform
and figured I'd give you some time to say goodbye...
but we really need to start wrapping things up.

If you simply take my hand,
I will respect your wishes...
and not destroy this puny planet.

p24

Let us ready to dep-...

...What's the meaning of this?
Move it, Earthling.

I won't let you take Lulu.

Oh?

Ten-sama?

p25

You're just someone who can't take her anywhere without using threats to rob her of her choices.
Just go home already.

I don't care how much you say you love Lulu.

I'll never forgive you for scaring her.

I won't let someone who pretends not to notice her fear
touch a single hair on her head.

p26

Lulu is my bride!

p27

...Hah.
How pathetic. The little runt thinks she's some kind of savior.

Princess.
There's no need to listen to the words of this inferior...

p28

...Ng

Ten-sama!!!

...Don't push your luck.

p29

You mere human...!!

Touching the princess so frivolously...!
Someone like you shouldn't even be laying eyes on her!

How dare you inferior lifeform living on this uncivilised garbage dump of a planet

p30

defy me!!

Get away

p31

FROM TEN-SAMA!!!
What
the

p32

HEEEEEEEEEEELL!?

Eh...?

Hweah...
Lulu!!

You okay!?
I-I am fine.
I just feel a little dizzy...

p33

...Thank goodness.

Wait right there... I'll call someone from the friendship association...

Lulu...?
U-

p34

Uwaaaaaaaah...!

p35

The truth is
I did not want to become that girl's bride.
All this time,
I was scared.
So scared.

I wanted to be by your side, Ten-sama...!

p36

The depths of my heart
became so hot, you'd think a planet had exploded in there.

...I want to be here.
Yeah.
I still
want to be with you.
Yeah.

p37

You don't need to go anywhere.
It's okay.

I didn't know what that was,
but it didn't feel like an appropriate thing to dwell on while someone was crying in front of me,
so for now, I chose to not think and just hug her.

p38

Even though you're so big,
right here in front of me, you seem so small.
