Just know that I only read what I translate, so I don’t have any idea what’s going on with the plot here except from the wiki summary I read years ago before the anime ended. I literally have no context so please let me know without spoiling me if anything sounds weird.

ARC 5
THE HISTORY-ENGRAVING STARS
Chapter 39
[Knightliness And The Man Who Was Late]
After the conversation in which they renewed their resolve, Subaru and Anastasia headed down the stairs of the City Hall.
The large room where Subaru had been laid down was on the third floor―― exactly halfway up the five-storied building, which apparently, was once a meeting room.
[Anastasia: Since the top floor’s been burned up by dragon’s breath, the fourth floor is the top floor now. All the victims of Lust are gathered there]
[Subaru: ……If the top floor has been burned, what happened to the broadcasting device?]
[Anastasia: That thing’s safe. It’s been taken down and put away. The arcane device itself is just shaped like a metal box that can be moved around on a mount. Apparently, the sounds collected in the box would get picked up by other devices installed all over the city]
Like antennas, or more like speakers?
A metal box plus speakers: something like a magical audio system. The fact that they’ve safely retrieved both the hostages and the arcane device was some sorely-needed good news.
[Subaru: You said the affected victims are all gathered on the fourth floor, right?]
[Anastasia: Despite bein’ turned into fruit flies and dragons, they’ve still retained their human awareness. So they can understand us and follow our instructions. ……Though I can’t say if that’s a good thing or bad thing]
[Subaru: …………]
Retaining one’s awareness through all this… Subaru couldn’t say for sure whether he’d consider it fortunate, either.
Consciously being turned into an insect from head to toe and becoming a completely different lifeform isn’t something “depressing” could sufficiently describe. Surely, it would entail the loss of one’s “self” as well.
Losing one’s body, and continuing on as something else entirely, would it really be possible not to lose one’s identity as well? Perhaps, only those who had actually experienced it could answer that question.
[Anastasia: They can still move their bodies. So thankfully, no one’s killed themselves. Everything happened so quickly, there’re some who still haven’t accepted the situation. ……I’d be glad if we can keep them safe until everything’s settled down]
[Subaru: Kill themselves…… you mean suicide? That’s……]
[Anastasia: You don’t think it’s somethin’ to worry about?]
[Subaru: ――――]
It wasn’t a question Subaru could answer lightly.
It was just that, compared to Subaru, Anastasia seemed to be far more comfortable with calmly considering countermeasures in the face of these extraordinary circumstances.
[Anastasia: There’s hope as long as they’re alive. Though, even while the body lives, if the heart dies, hope will collapse as well. So just stayin’ alive isn’t enough. They must also have the will to live no matter what]
Keeping his eyes forward as he walked, Subaru heard Anastasia say this without seeing her face.
But, in terms of her resilient view on life and death, Subaru wholeheartedly agreed.
And so, to that end――
[???: Anastasia-sama]
Downstairs, seeing Subaru and Anastasia walking down to the first floor, Julius, who was the first to notice their arrival, called out the name of his master.
To Subaru, the first-floor reception lobby was just a place he had briefly passed through. But, even to him, the marks of the desperate battle that had been carved into the lobby struck him with such a deep impression that he could vividly sense the fierce struggle that had taken place here.
The desks and chairs, and even the wall were littered with sword strikes and magical spells, while, all over the floor, bloodstains scraped by footprints asserted their existence.
Although regrettably, Julius had let Gluttony escape, all these signs showed that it wasn’t for a lack of trying.
[Julius: How was the conversation with Subaru?]
[Anastasia: It did drag on a bit, but it ended quite well, I guess. Same as us, Natsuki-kun is pumped full of motivation too, so……]
Playfully nodding to Julius’ question, Anastasia turned her gaze to the back of the room.
Opposite from the stairs Subaru and Anastasia had just come down from, at the lobby’s entrance was Ricardo, heaving his gigantic figure. Just as Anastasia had ordered, he had been outside trying to make contact with other survivors.
[Anastasia: Welcome back, Ricardo. How’s the situation outside?]
[Ricardo: Ya sure look like yer in pretty good spirits, miss. It’s bad as it gets. It’ll probably get worse with time, too. Those bastards sure got some talent for messin’ with people]
Frowning in disgust, Ricardo snorted at the fruitless result of the search.
He roughly scratched his canine head and gestured to the members of the Iron Fang crowding around him, instructing several of them to head out again while telling the others to rest in a corner.
[Subaru: How was the Witch Cult messing with people? No, I mean, I know there’s already nothing more messed up than this situation we’re in, but are you talking about something else?]
[????: Th’broadcast, capt’n. Talkin’ ‘bout those fuckers’ broadcasts]
Emerging from the side of the stairs, Garfiel answered Subaru’s query.
Listening to Garfiel clacking his fangs in frustration, Subaru asked, [Broadcast?]
[Subaru: You mean the one where they transmitted their demands? Aside from that, did they say anything else?]
[Julius: Nothing over the top. Just announcing that all forces attempting to retake the City Hall have been dealt with. The Sin Archbishop of Lust must be the one making them. The words were truly despicable]
[Ricardo: Thanks ta her, the people in the few refuge-shelters I showed up at all have barely any spirit left. Won’t be easy, convincin’ them to rise up t’ take back their city]
Julius firmly closed his eyes, while Ricardo scrunched up his nose.
Hearing their answers, Subaru more or less understood what that remark about “messing with people” meant.
Along with her demands, Capella had announced the defeat of Subaru’s forces upon occupying the City Hall.
Naturally, for the citizens who couldn’t even lift a sword, news of the defeat must have shattered their hopes, while those who did have the strength to fight would soon realize the importance of the assault on the City Hall, and the reason Subaru and the others had committed to this early attack.
At the same time, they would realize that such an assault required considerable forces, and that, even with such forces, it had failed nonetheless.
In other words, regardless of whether the people in the refuge-shelters had any strength to resist or not, Capella’s broadcasts were set to break their spirits.
[Ricardo: From th’City Hall records, we already know the locations of all the refuge shelters. But still, after visitin’ the nearby shelters one by one…… well ya can guess what the result is]
Ricardo swung out his arms and directly confirmed Subaru’s fears.
It was only human nature. There was no point in blaming Ricardo for failing to convince them. When it came to depravity, the Witch Cultists had no equal.
[Anastasia: No strength to fight, no courage to resist. In that case, what comes next’ll be even more dangerous]
Beside the rueful Subaru, Anastasia touched her chin, muttering.
Seeing Subaru lift his head at her voice, Anastasia tilted her head with [Right?]
[Anastasia: “You can’t win even if you fight”, once a person believes this, they’ll lose their will to fight. So then, what do you think people’ll do next?]
[Subaru: Fall into despair and feel scared… that’s not the answer you were looking for, is it?]
[Anastasia: Well it’d be cute if they just held their knees cryin’. But, it won’t be like that. Even if they lost the will to fight, they haven’t lost the will to live. In that case, what choice is left to them?]
[Subaru: ……You don’t mean]
Subaru was starting to catch the drift of what Anastasia was saying.
At the same time, an unbearable disgust at the Witch Cult’s machinations rose inside him.
As if to confirm the conclusion in Subaru’s shuddering mind, Anastasia clapped her hands together.
And,
[Anastasia: The conditions for their survival were already presented to them. In the form of demands, too. So, it stands to reason that there’ll be some who’d try to meet those demands out of desperation. The “Artificial Spirits” and the owner of “The Book of Wisdom”, even the “Sacrificial lovers and couples” wouldn’t be out of the question, you know]
[Subaru: There’s no way people could turn that extreme, right!?]
[Anastasia: Maybe not. Maybe there’ll be those who’ll refuse to sacrifice others just for their survival. Or those who’ll try to escape the city at all costs…… either way, the ensuing chaos is inevitable]
Once panic is allowed to fester, this precarious balance would come crashing down in an instant.
It was too frightening to imagine what the Witch Cultists would do to this city once that happens. They’d be granted the ultimate authority to erase everything that everyone had worked for.
Like some tyrant’s switch that could cast it all to the floods with a finger’s flick.

Im not Chicken nor know his feelings about your comment, but I have to state mine. What you are suggesting to him is, in my opinion, disgusting and just the worst. Im already disgusted enough by people spamming Chicken for Arc 5 just cuz Zerotranslations stopped, but this proposal is the top. Taking some other translators work, even if its just as an blueprint, to speed up your own translations just for greedy *insult please*who cant show some patience. I can totally understand why Zero stopped, his community is terrible toxic, in my opinion. I dont wanna attack anyone personally, thus this all could just look to me like that, but Im seriously disappointed in nearly everyone here. I lt makes me sick

Than i hope you will never gonna start a Buisness, cause it will go straight into a wall. Chicken is able to this at his current speed, because he gets revenue out of it. Thats something ppl like you seem to forget nor do they understand that side. Even at Chicken’s speed, it will take at least 2 1/2 years to catch up to the english translations which are already out there. How many ppl will he loose along the way, what do you think? Not even talking about the risk of someone smart enough with the will to do the work, to do exactly that what i just suggested. And how many ppl do you smarta** think chicken could gain for his community and the buisness he runs with his translations by doing so? You call me toxic? Ppl like you are the toxic ones, who dont give a single f*** about the buisness side of chicken’s work, but just take it for granted and go around spouting nonsense and insulting other ppl because they cant think further than their own 2 greedy feets! And im sure Anon didnt quit because anything was toxic, but because he wasnt blessed to be able to support himself finacially with his translations and just burned himself out with the speed at which he worked on it in his free time without getting anything in return.

I thought about removing this argument because it is really getting a bit mean-spirited. But I want to say my part in all this:
I first started translating a few days before the last anime episode aired, and I did it because I loved the series, and loved the experience of diving deep into the story, dissecting every sentence and every word, writing it in my favorite language, and then sharing it with others who also enjoy it.
The support I received along the way was more than I could have hoped for, but at the heart of it, I do it because I enjoy it. If I didn’t enjoy doing it, I would never have kept going for so long.
I have kept my own pace all the way up to now, and I do not think it’s fair that just because other rushed translations have overtaken me that I should let it interfere or stop me from doing what I am doing. I can’t control other people’s actions but I want to be able to choose my own.
Now please stop arguing… I don’t think anyone was trying to insult anyone.

I actually reread the whole thing up to arc 5 chp 38 in the past 2 months..This made my day and I won’t feel anxiety now knowing that hopefully there will be a new arc 5 chapter and not have to be disappointed when I checked zeros website literally every 3-5 hours.

Just a suggestion: Garfield calling Subaru “general” sounds a bit weird, that word in the English language is almost exclusively used in the context of an army (that’s what I think at least, could be wrong). Zerotranslations used the word “Captain” but there are other possible synonyms that make sense and sound equally normal (i.e. commander)
