After joining the organization he is given the name 'Zwei' (German for number 'two') and will study under 'Ein' (German for 'one'). Ein is also known as 'Phantom', the title given to the organization's top assassin.

Translation Notes:
I've initially made this for myself because the existing DVD version is barely usable, but then decided to polish it a bit and release it somewhere.
Initial translation was done by the latest Gemini Pro model, then I've read every route and applied fixes in the process, mainly related to incorrect jumps between different scripts and obviously wrong or weird-sounding translations.
Original system.dll doesn't work on modern Windows versions, so I used the patched one from https://vndb.org/r129448 and then modified it again to translate UI elements.
I've also included a folder with some original files and Python scripts to work with the game archives, in case anyone wants to perform proper proofreading
Known issues:
- There may be garbled characters somewhere because I've read the VN on an older Windows version and then quickly fixed it for Win10 without re-reading every line. At least every ending is reachable as of now.
- Patched system.dll is missing the name choosing feature; you can install a Windows XP VM and play with the original file if you need this functionality.
- "Extras" contents such as gun descriptions and standalone H-scenes were not edited.
