The Vow from that Day

Abandon that foolish brother and hurry to Nanaki’s house. Nanaki’s house is in the center pentagon, the same area as the palace. I received it from the emperor after my ability as the Lightning Empress was recognised. As I ran through the familiar scenery, I saw two figures that I know well.

run past

“Stop, Nanaki. Explain that absurd mana just now.”

“If you keep acting so haughty, you are going to get hit again.”

yesyes

I guess this is inevitable. This is the center of the capital and also the deepest pentagon where the empire resides. If I cause that much of a commotion then not just imperial knights, the Five Emperors will come flying too. Morning greetings to Silver and Salia that stood in my way. Goodmorningnanaki.

ohayo~

“Good morning. Silver, Salia.”

dont need to greet Silver

And good bye. Goodbyenanaki.

sayonara~

Excuse me but Nanaki is currently in a hurry. I slipped past the two of them without pause. It can be said to be as expected of the Five Emperors to respond a little, but they couldn’t match Nanaki’s speed. Please forgive me, at this rate I am going to be late. Let us talk at a later time.

more important stuff

If you really want to talk now no matter what, then stop Nanaki with force. Unfortunately, Nanaki will not stop at mere words. Master is the top priority, this is the pride of a master maid. With this Nanaki’s pride on the line, I will be going to his side immediately.

words….

“I will tell Envy.”

…..kid?

U-turnanaki.

…..it worked

It’s definitely not that I gave in to Silver’s threat. Just that I thought that the head of the Five Emperors that protect the capital, Sword Emperor Silver was acting shamefully, so I came back to scold him. Relying on someone else’s power, what are you doing? That is weakness, Nanaki shall educate you a little.

ttally not the threat

“That is no good, Silver. If you want to stop me, stop me with your own strength.”

“Hmph, that doesn’t matter. Tell me what happened.”

“Silver, no need to be so aggressive.”

“I do not mind, Salia.”

just hit him

The Nanaki of the past would have slapped that shameful face, but Nanaki is no longer a child. I’m not so free to take on each and every provocation. If it’s necessary, I will just explain the situation simply. It’s definitely not that I am scared of Envy, this is a deeply profound decision to clean up future troubles.

yep

“Oh my, Nanaki has grown up.”

“I am a splendid lady now.”

very elegant

‘Are you a lady?’ My answer to Salia’s question is yes, hmhmph.

elephant

“What part of her is grown up, stop spoiling her Salia.”

shut up silver

‘Are you ready?’ I tried asking Silver.

yes

“Where were you looking when you said that?”

kill him

According to your response you may be sent flying, so prepare yourself okay?

Nanaki will still grow

“Mor, more importantly, what happened! Answer already!”

Don’t change the topic

His voice shook a little. I still don’t really like it, but I can’t just keep glaring at him forever. As an adult, Nanaki will let him off for now. Be grateful for the size of Nanaki’s generosity. (T/N: yes I know it’s supposed to be depth not size, but the author seems to have intentionally put size. It may or may not have something to do with the wording used also having the literal meaning of ‘size of bust’~)  But there will be no next time, Silver, if you make that mistake again, then something terrible will happen to that handsome face.  Be as careful as you can.

懐の大きさ

“I fought Leon.”

“…….as expected. It seems even by risking his life he couldn’t reach this monster.”

“I see, Leon was your trump card? Then it was good that you didn’t choose the path of fighting Nanaki.”

wouldnt have won

If anything went wrong at the Five Emperor Conference recently, then we would have been on that path. At that time a trump card against Nanaki would be necessary. And that was Leon. Indeed, when Leon has Exceed Magia activated, he is stronger than anyone among the Five Emperors. That magic is just that powerful.

stronger than god…

“So, what happened to Leon?”

“Yo, you didn’t kill him right……?”

“I thought of killing him, but before that the gods took him away.”

“Wha…….!? You didn’t chase him!?”

“If it’s you, shouldn’t you have been able to stop those gods? Answer me, Nanaki.”

why

I tilted my head, thought, and then pondered, and finally thought of it.

should Nanaki chase

At first I was wondering what they were talking about. Most likely, Silver and Salia are misunderstanding. There is a need to properly confirm our positions once more, right now.

Nanaki 


“I, am no longer the Lightning Empress.”

is now

Yes, Nanaki is no longer the Lightning Empress.

a master maid~

“So, I don’t care about the capital. What is important to me, is master, his family and my friends.”

always know what you are fighting for

Protecting the capital is the duty of the Five Emperors. Regarding Leon, in the first place, he was Nanaki’s enemy. Where is there a need to save him? Nanaki was certainly once called the Lightning Empress and fought for this capital, but that is a story of the past. It has no relation whatsoever to the current Nanaki.

Nanaki’s job is done here~

“Bu, but if we join forces and defeat all the gods, the world will…….”

“In the first place, negotiations have not proceeded to the stage of cooperation yet. Salia.”

“Eh…….?”

“Certainly, I would be delighted if we work together.”

“Then……!”

“But, currently I am a servant. Salia.”

Servants serve

At that negotiation, the truth of the prophecy came from Ency’s conjecture. Although it is not clear if that really is the truth, it is certain that that speculation birthed another alternative for humanity. But, not a single thing has been decided yet. Nanaki’s master has not yet decided anything.

so Nanaki cannot move

We have heard the story about the magic necrosis, the curse that humanity received. We also learnt that science was sealed away for that purpose. But only up to there, talks have not progressed to the main topic that should have been spoken of. Joining forces, great. Defeat all the gods, absolutely wonderful. If Master said so, Nanaki would gladly lend a hand.

if

But.

not yet

“My master has not decided anything yet.”

the path is not set

Will the Five Emperors become allies? Or enemies?

still at a crossroads

“Wha…….”

“Nanaki…….you…….”

you were the ones that kicked out Nanaki

Yes, I knew. That you would become speechless like that. Even though Nanaki only said what is obvious for Nanaki, the response is always that. That’s why Nanaki has judged. That I myself am deviated. But, so what? Nanaki is not so weak as to change myself because Nanaki is deviated.

accept yourself

Even if Nanaki is not understood, Nanaki will keep going, because Nanaki has lived like that until now.

never waver~

“D, do you……intend to abandon the world based on the decision of a single person, a child…….!?”

“I made a vow, Silver. That I would be his servant.”

“Fool!! Have you gone mad!? There is no way the world can be destroyed because of something like that!!”

it can

Both Salia and Silver were extremely distraught. But I will not change, Nanaki cannot change.

otherwise that would not be Nanaki

“Is a vow something like that?”

something so easily changed?

I will say it to this horribly warped world.

warped by humans

“Is the act of a vow something so light? Silver, Salia.”

“A single vow and the fate of a world, there shouldn’t be a need to ask which is more important Nanaki!!”

“The one that will decide that is me. As long as I do not forget my pride and he remains suitable as a master, this contract will continue.”

….Nanaki sounds like a devil

That is what a vow is.

and also

“Because not upholding a vow is weakness.”

and Nanaki is not weak

I will prioritise my vow over the fate of the world, if I say that I would be criticised. That’s fine, insult Nanaki as much as you like. Do you think I would break my vow from just that much? I always thought this, but people’s words are too light. Is it okay to so easily break a vow towards someone else, towards yourself?

words are just sound

No.

action is necessaory

That day, betting this Nanaki’s pride, I vowed. To become his servant, to wipe away all that stood in his path to glory. Other people’s opinion have nothing to do with it at all, even if they approve, that will not become Nanaki’s strength. There is only one thing that is necessary, can I be proud of myself if I break this vow?

can you accept yourself?

There isn’t even a need to answer.

always be sure of youself

“You are insane……..”

“I am fine with that, Silver.”

insanity is just a different way of thinking

After all, we are master and servant.

the end
