クロノ・ストーリー (Chrono Story)

Background[]

“I have unlimited time anyway”
—Author's comment

The song follow Hänsel (Len) and Gretel (Rin), right after they've killed their parents, Adam (KAITO) and Eve Moonlit (Miku). They take her Original Sin and rip it into seven pieces, Lust, Gluttony, Pride, Sloth, Envy, Greed and Wrath, sending them out into the world in the hopes that they'll be cleansed. Held, the tree god, witnessed this and asks Elluka Clockworker (Luka) to collect them, who agrees because she doesn't have anything better to do with her newly gained immortality since she's lost everything she held dear anyways.

Elluka wander across the countries until she reaches Asmodean and stumbles across the Venomania residence where the sin of lust is committed. The Original Sin Story has ended, the Chrono Story has begun.

This song has entered Hall of Fame.

Do I hear the birds singing?
No, it's the cry of the forest
Do I see the moon shining?
No, it's just the flames burning

The person woman we once called out “mother”
Burned to ashes inside the fireplace
She left behind the "original sin"
Which we split into seven pieces

“Lust”, the flower
“Gluttony”, the seed
“Vanity”, the stone
“Envy”, the spring
“Sloth”, the wind
“Greed”, the soil
And
“Wrath”, the forest

Rise, seven sins
The filth created by the pretentious mother
Keep turning, world
Please clense
The deadly sins

The hands of the forbidden fruit
Unleashed the seven sins to the world
Tree of Eldoh, the guardian of the forest
Requested an old friend to collect them

“I don't mind as long as it keeps me entertained”
“I have unlimited time anyway”
Sneered the sorceress

After loosing her loved one
And destroying what was precious
Eternity given to her
Only brought feeling of emptyness

The sorceress who once obtained everything
And lost it all
What does she hope for?
What does she desire?
At the end of time…

The story of the sin, born and raised by a woman
The torn into seven pieces
Whim of the witch who transcends time
Beginning from the forst, this is the Chrono Story
