Project Umbrella Translation
ALEXANDER'S NOTE
My father Edward discovered the Progenitor Virus and conducted research for military applications in collaboration with a fellow nobleman, Lord Spencer.
Before long, their research results began to take shape, and variants of the Progenitor Virus came to be collectively designated as T-Virus.
In order to camouflage this research, Father and others established Umbrella Pharmaceuticals.
I, his son, specialized in genetic engineering and was working on a classified project in order to support Father's research.
However, Father passed away in the midst of the project and my research ran into difficulties.
By my generation, we had significantly fallen behind other researchers in T-Virus research, soiling the Ashford family name that stems from our magnificent founder, Veronica.
At this rate, Spencer will take control of Umbrella.
I must accelerate the project with immediate effect so Spencer won't find out about it.
Taking anything and everything into consideration, I have decided to make arrangements for an extensive cutting-edge research installation within a transport terminal, using the remains of an abandoned Antarctic mine.
Inside the facility I will have them build identical rooms based on the blueprints of my estate, left behind by the late Trevor.
For the sake of confidentiality, I have decided to refer to this top-secret project by a codename.
It is Veronica, the beautiful founder of the Ashfords, whose reincarnation I solemnly dream of.
Research results worthy of her name will no doubt bring glory to the Ashfords once more.

アレクサンダーの手記
私の父、エドワードは同じ貴族出身のスペンサー卿と協力して始祖ウィルスを発見し、軍事利用の為の研究をかさねた。
やがて研究成果が出はじめ、始祖ウィルスの変異体を総じてＴ－ウィルスと呼ぶようになった。
その研究をカモフラージュするために父達はアンブレラ製薬を設立した。
息子の私は遺伝子工学が専門で、父の研究をサポートするための極秘プロジェクトを進めていた。
しかし、私の研究は難航しプロジェクト半ばにして父は亡くなってしまった。
私の代で、Ｔ－ウィルスの研究において他の研究者に大きく遅れを取り、偉大なる始祖ベロニカから始まるアシュフォードの家名を地に落としてしまった。
このままでは、アンブレラをスペンサーに支配されてしまう。
スペンサーに悟られぬ様、プロジェクトを早急に進めなければならない。
私は全てを考慮し、南極の廃坑跡を利用した輸送ターミナルに大規模な最新研究設備を用意することにした。
設備内には今は亡きトレバーが残した我が屋敷の設計図を基に同じ部屋を造らせよう。
機密保持の為、この極秘プロジェクトをコードネームで呼ぶ事にする。
それは、私が再来を望んでやまない美しきアシュフォードの始祖ベロニカ。
彼女の名にふさわしい研究結果が、再びアシュフォードに栄光をもたらすにちがいない。

ALEXANDER'S MEMO
My father, Edward, discovered the mother virus in cooperation with Lord Spencer, who was also a nobleman. They studied it for the purpose of military use.
Eventually their study took shape. They named a variation of the mother virus, the "T-Virus".
To camouflage their research, they established Umbrella Chemical, Inc.
I majored in biogenetics and have been involved with a top secret project, supporting my father's research.
However, my research went through a difficult phase, and my father died in the middle of the project.
We are now at a major disadvantage against other researchers, as there is great competition in the field of T-Virus research. I have disgraced the honourable name of the Ashford family that our great ancestor Veronica established.
If nothing is done, Umbrella will be taken over by Spencer.
I must expedite the project to its fullest, without being detected by Spencer.
After much thought, I decided to establish a large-scale advanced research facility. It will be located in the transport terminal that I created by using the abandoned mine in the Antarctic.
Within the facility, I'll have a room built. It will be similar to the design of my mansion, the legacy of the late Trevor. I will be able to cherish my sweet memories there...
For security purposes, this confidential project will be given a codename.
It is the name of the beautiful ancestor of the Ashford family, "Veronica" whom I wish to receive so badly.
I am confident that the result of my research will be as glorious as her name, and that honour will be restored to the Ashford family once again.
