Lightning Empress Maid Chapter 103

60%→100%

“Nn for now the cleaning is done.”

next?

I casually cleared my throat. Leaving aside Harmy’s unnecessary statement, with this there is no longer any reason for her to rush. Please take a look, at this kitchen that is clean as far as you can see. If you would let me say it, it is a lot cleaner than before Nanaki used it. Amazingnanaki.

Now then, with the problem of time resolved, what should Nanaki do next? It’s decided, I should quickly join in on breakfast preparations. With this incident, it has been made clear. I am inexperienced, I will admit that.

time to get experience

So I thought of a breakthrough solution.

innovative

What I needed was an excellent teacher, I was lacking that. Limited to this nanaki, lack of talent is impossible. In that case, the lacking things are experience and a cooking teacher. When I think about it, I’m always denied from the start. Like that no matter how excellent Nanaki is, I cannot learn. Thus what I need is a cooking teacher that would patiently teach me.

just learn

Ah Friend, Nanaki is fortunate. Right now, the girl before Nanaki’s eyes can be said the be the very existence that Nanaki was looking for. She may be young, but her ability has been proven in this Empire. To display my gratitude for that rare talent, here is Nanaki’s best smile as a present.

sensei~

Nanakismile of fortune. Everyone around the world, it’s Nanaki.

shisho~

“Now then Harmy, let us begin preparing breakfast.”

“Yes. Then I would like to ask Nanaki-sama to leave.”

“Yes. ……Yes?”

no?

Why?

bcos nanaki can’t cook?

Ignoring Nanaki tilting my head, Harmy silently began preparing breakfast. As expected even Nanaki was surprised by this. I tilted my head even more. The angle is forty five degrees Nanaki. Using faint electricity, I created a question mark with my hair. Here, look Friend, this is the real questionanaki.

…..p

Now then, let me have an answer I can accept.

is there one

“Nanaki-sama.”

“Yes?”

“You are in the way.”

“Ah, okay.”

jamadesu

No, not okay. I unintentionally nodded at her extreme air of intimidation. A blunder.

just give up

“No, Harmy. Please let me help too. I want to learn to cook.”

verdict?

But Nanaki will not falter from just this much. I clearly said it to Harmy who wouldn’t even meet my eyes. Indeed, humans have a way to convey their feelings. Nanaki has no intention of neglecting that. This pride that I bear in my chest will not allow me to back off without saying that.

soo now you can?

In the end, I don’t know if Nanaki’s feelings were conveyed. But the thing that stopped that busy arm that was silently setting about to prepare breakfast is unmistakable the power of words.

or shok

“……Nanaki-sama, are you sane?”

Her expression and eyes were serious. What’s this, it doesn’t make sense. This should be a setting for her to ask ‘are you serious?’ to confirm my resolve. It should not be a setting for her to ask ‘are you sane?’ to confirm the condition of my head.

it’s empty

“Yes, please teach me.”

In any case, I nodded strongly. This good opportunity cannot be allowed to go to waste because of some minor mistake in words. I meekly lowered my head for now. Please take care of me I beg you, by all meananakis.

tried

“Can I speak honestly?”

“Yes.”

bad sign

I couldn’t wish for much more. Simplicity is exactly what Nanaki wishes for, please say it.

come at nanaki

“You are an annoyance.”

meiwaku

Okay, disperse.

pause

Chased out of the kitchen, I aimlessly went out to the garden and saw the sunrise. Gold rose into the sky. A very beautiful sunrise. Clean air and silence filled the garden, a great environment for the start of a day, not bad.

remotivate

“Nn………”

recharge

I stretched while bathed in the comfortable sunlight. My thanks to the kind light that heals me from the chagrin of waking up early but having everything gone to waste. Thank you thank you. It might be good to occasionally spend time peacefully like this. With the situation changing so hectically, Nanaki aside, master and Meia-sama might be tired. It can be said that my consideration of them was slightly lacking. Reflection.

let things calm down a little

“Good morning, master.”

ah hi

And so I would like a chance to recover at once. How about it?

restore your pride?

“Ah, morning, Nanaki.”

ohayo~

Weak mana and a presence that did not even try to hide itself. When I turned around, Nanaki’s master was there. His golden hair shined in the morning sun and his clear sapphire eyes were looking at Nanaki.

ouji-sama?

First, what should I talk about?

the weather?

“Did you sleep well?”

that works

For now I settled for a safe question. It is also the servant’s duty to worry about the master.

only duty?

“As expected, I’m still lacking sleep.”

can’t sleep?

Without hiding it, master smiled. It’s good to be open. I am well aware that keeping up appearances is important, but with Nanaki and master’s relationship, the minimum is fine. Nanaki understands him, makes the effort to do so.

master maid

“Could Nanaki sleep?”

“I slept well.”

“Haha, you’re strong.”

“Yes.”

ofc

Of course. I affirmed myself with confidence. Singing my own praises is Nanaki’s specialty. It is reality, Nanaki is wonderful.

great confidence

“Nanaki really doesn’t act humble.”

“Because there is no need.”

and would be an insult

What will happen even if I do that sort of thing. In the ancient past, before the god world war, it seems it was an age where modesty was a virtue, but that is just weakness. If you have confidence then you should boldly hold your chest high. If you cannot do that then you are just scared of being rejected. In the end, aren’t you just a coward.

as are we all

Ridiculous, makes my side nanaki from laughing. Cowards and Nanaki are of a different class. Why is there a need for Nanaki to be scared. If you can reject me then try it. Nanaki will go beyond that.

Nanaki is always above

“Nanaki is kinda cool huh.”

Hmhmm?

why

The second forty five degree nanaki of today. Why is master saying such an obvious thing. This looks inherited from Mother, this perfect conduct. Nanaki’s dignity knows no bounds. Before you can even complain I have already gone beyond the milky way and arrived at Andromeda. Live well.

bye~

When I took out my foldable hand-mirror and peeked into it to check, a super dignified Nanaki-chan appeared. I folded my arms and stiffened my expression. Kiri. This is the pose of dignified Nanaki. How is it Friend, Nanaki is cool rig—what are you laughing at.

master

“Nanaki?”

“Ah, it is nothing, yes.”

forgot?

Ku, remember this later damn Nazgul. I will punch that guffawing face of yours with all my strength.

terekakushi~

“What were we talking about?”

“N, well………”

Unusually, he wasn’t speaking clearly.

bcos nanaki

No, that should be said to be natural.

bcos Nanaki is strange

Nobody is strong like Nanaki, nobody is special like Nanaki.

nobody is weird like nanaki

So, I tried asking.

IS nANAKI SANE?

“After one night, has there been a change in your thoughts?”

about Nanaki?

If he is to turn back, it can only be now. In the future awaits an unprecedented battleground. Humans that once could do nothing but be trampled by the gods, have obtained a sword that can slaughter the gods and have thrust it towards the gods. So that people, so that humanity can survive.

Nanaki is here~

“Nope”

ofc

I knew. That was what he would answer, that he was also deviated. Splendid, then this is the final confirmation.

just checking

“—-do you have the resolve to kill the gods?”

“I asked you if you could kill them.”

great

Yes, and Nanaki answered that Nanaki could kill them.

it’s decided

So Nanaki must live up to it. The promise I made with Mother, the promise I made with hm. Nanaki will not break either one. Nanaki’s pride will never waver for all of eternity. Since the gods that rule the world have become my enemies, Nanaki must also be resolved.

Isn’t that right, Friend?

yes?

——next time let’s go all out.

….srsly?

“Then shall we go? To the emperor.”

yeah

For our promise.

but later

“After eating breakfast.”

there is that

I forgot.
