Ace Archer: Kyoto Imperial Palace, scene 1 5 lines

ManYou look to be a warrior of great prowess.
Would you indulge me and lend an ear to my sorry tale?
おお、お主、腕に覚えがある侍と見た! どうか、人の怒りを、無念を、聞いてはくれぬか!
ManIt was at the Imperial Palace... Curious monsters
with the power of flight breached the outer wall!
ワシは見たのじゃ! 帝がおわす御所で、 奇怪な化け物が浮かんでおるのを…!
ManI tried to drive out the insolent beasts, but failed.
Ah, I burn with shame. Curse my lack of fortitude!
『何たる不敬!』と退治しようとしたが 返り討ちにあってのう…。己の無力が、憎い!
MusashiHey, don't be so hard on yourself, old man.
You did well to make it out alive.
…あのな、じいさん。 その心意気は買うけどよ、普通だったら死んでるところだぞ
MusashiI'll deal with the monsters. Stay
out of trouble in the meantime.
退治ならこっちでやるから、無茶するんじゃねぇ

Ace Archer: Kyoto Imperial Palace, scene 2 6 lines

ManThank you for driving out those insolent intruders!御所にいた不届き者を退治してくれたか! 礼を言うぞ!
ManTruly, you remind me of the great Lord Yorimasa.
And I too shall draw inspiration from that mighty
warrior when next I face a monstrous interloper...
その腕前、まさにワシが憧れる頼政公の如しじゃ…! 次に現れたなら、頼政公の如くこの手で退治して…
MusashiI wouldn't bother. It won't do you any good. Being a
"mighty warrior" doesn't have much to do with it.
だから、無茶はよせって…。 頼政も俺も、普通じゃねぇから倒せたんだ
MusashiJust don't go getting yourself killed for no reason.
Trust me, it won't do you any favors in Yorimasa's eyes.
下手に手を出して殺されたんじゃ、頼政に笑われんぞ
ManHmm... It's almost as if you knew the great man himself.ぬぅ…まるで頼政公を知っているかのような口ぶり
ManStill, I thank you for your words. You
are quite right. In dangerous times, we
must not throw away our lives for naught.
しかし、お主の言う通りじゃ。 こういう状況だからこそ、命を粗末にしてはいかんな
