Barisol's Child is an Only Child

"But nowadays they're two children."

―Levia and Behemo^[src]

Barisol's Child is an Only Child is a song released by Akuno-P on August 16, 2015 in the Original Sin Story: Complete Edition album. It is the fifth song in the Original Sin Story.

Plot[]

The only child of Barisol, a son to a wealthy household, enjoys wearing dresses, playing with dolls, and putting on makeup, left alone because of this. The only child of Barisol, a girl prodigy, studies the minds of people in college to find the cause of Malice and learns that it isn't from her world. Later, the only son of Barisol dates a maid, who is then disgusted when he asks to put on her clothes. Meanwhile the only daughter of Barisol, suffering from Malice, consults a researcher of parallel worlds, who suggests she kills her other "self." The son hides in his room from an angry voice amidst his scattered dolls; in the mirror he sees another world, with a woman identical to him extending her hand.

It's explained how the ark flew out from the world when Malice consumed it, with a crew of 72 people and a pair of twins on board. Right before killing her other self, the woman realizes it was a trap by the man to make her fall to Malice possibly so he could take her spot. Now two children of Barisol ride out on the ark, the sister knowing the mind and the brother knowing the body, to probably create a new humankind someday.

Lyrics[]

バリーゾールの息子は一人っ子
裕福な家庭の跡取りで　誰もが羨む美少年
だけど彼には問題があった

人形遊びが大好きで　女の子の服ばかりを着る
母の部屋から道具を盗み　こっそり化粧をしたりもする

周りの誰しもがそんな彼を遠ざけた
だから彼はいつだって
ひとりぼっち

バリーゾールの娘は一人っ子
千年一度の天才児
六歳で大学に入り　人の心について研究する

止まらない犯罪や戦争　人はどうして憎みあうか
それが少しでも判ればと　彼女は研究を続けた

そして彼女は気づいた　止まらぬ『悪意』の原因を
『それはこの世界にはない』と
知ってしまった

バリゾール―の息子は一人っ子
彼にもついに恋人ができた　勤めに来た同い年のメイド
まるで人形のように可愛い

「君の服を着させて欲しい」
ある日彼は彼女に頼んだ
彼女は酷くうろたえながら
「気持ち悪い」それだけ答えた

バリーゾールの娘は一人っ子
彼女も『悪意』に犯され始めた
何故か止まらぬ殺人衝動　彼女は同僚に相談した

並行世界の研究者
男は彼女にこう答えた
「『もう一人の自分』を消せば　君の『悪意』も消せるかもしれない」

扉の外から怒鳴り声
彼は部屋の隅で怯えてた
室内に転がった人形　手足はバラバラで温かい

彼の目には見えていた　鏡の中の別世界
自分にそっくりな女が　手を差し伸べた

世界が「悪意」に呑まれた時　箱舟は宇宙へ飛び出した
七十二人の乗組員　その中には双子もいたという

……『自分自身』を殺す直前　彼女は真実に気づいた
これはあの男が仕組んだ　巧みな罠であるということを

私がこの手を下す時　それこそが『悪意』への入口
堕ちた私の代わりに奴が　箱舟に乗るつもりだったのだろう

バリーゾールの子供は一人っ子
だけど今はもう二人っ子
人の心に詳しい姉と　人の身体に詳しい弟

箱舟は黒い海を進む　新たな楽園を目指して
二人の研究はいつの日か　新たな人類を創るだろう

Barisol’s son is an only child
An heir to a wealthy household, and a beautiful boy everyone envies
But there was a problem with him

He loves to play with dolls, and he only wears girl clothes
He steals implements from his mother’s room and secretly puts on makeup
Everyone around him kept their distance from him as such
So he was always
All alone

Barisol’s daughter is an only child
A once-in-a-millennium child prodigy
Entering college at age six, she studies about the heart of man
Unending crimes and wars; why do people hate each other so?
So that she could understand that even a little, she continued with her research

And so she realized the cause of the unending ‘Malice’
She knew, ‘That’s not in this world’

Barisol’s son is an only child
He too finally took up a sweetheart, a maid his age who came to work for him
She was adorable like a doll

“I’d like you to let me wear your clothes,”
One day he requested of her
While becoming terribly flustered
“That’s disgusting” was her only reply

Barisol’s daughter is an only child
She too was beginning to be violated by ‘Malice’
Having unending murder impulses without knowing why, she consulted with a colleague
A researcher of parallel worlds
The man made this reply to her:
“If you can erase your ‘other self’, then perhaps your ‘malice’ can be erased as well”

From outside the door was an angry voice
In a corner of the room, he was growing afraid
The dolls scattered inside the room, their limbs were warm and in pieces

There was another world in the mirror that his eyes had been able to see
A woman who resembled himself extended a hand

When the world was consumed by “Malice”, an ark flew into the cosmos
With a crew of 72 people, inside of that it’s said there were also twins

Just before she would kill ‘herself’, she realized the truth
That this was a clever trap that man had devised

When I do this myself, that really would be the gateway to ‘Malice’
With me fallen, he likely intended to ride on the ark in my place

Barisol’s child is an only child
But nowadays they're two children
The older sister knowing the heart of man and the younger brother knowing the body of man

The ark advances along a black sea, aiming for a new paradise
Their research might create a new mankind someday
