Lightning Empress Maid Chapter 92

We spent a while in the first place that was chosen for sightseeing in the capital, the garden where sakura petals danced. As if having forgotten words at its beauty, nobody spoke, so I looked up at the sky. The pink flowers dancing in the blue sky are beautiful, with it being this beautiful, Mother would surely have loved it. How is it, Mother?

beautiful

“Nanaki.”

“What is it, Salia?”

“Come, the emperor summons you.”

O.o

It is slightly surprising to be summoned by such an unexpected person. Now then, how should I answer? Considering our respective positions, I think it would be better for us to not interact though.

“Zean Alfred, you too.”

Master too?

seems so

I made eye contact with master, it may be slightly rude, but I smiled slightly. After all, those blue eyes didn’t even have a shred of unrest. In fact, that expression is not that of one who prostrates themselves before the power of the emperor of the Frost Empire. That is it. The reason I thought that is surely because Nanaki is also deviated, since I am happy at the fact that he is deviated.

attaboy

Impure, but unexpectedly, it might just be something like that. It might not be that strange to fall in love with someone and want that person to stay that way. Because Nanaki thinks humans are that kind of creature, always selfish.

natural

“Onii-sama……”

“Don’t worry, Nanaki is also coming. In fact I’m more worried about their side which has lost Nanaki.”

they gave her over

I have seen a beautiful sibling love, worrying about each other’s safety. Just possibly, if Nanaki and Leon were brought up the same way, we might have been able to be like that, I thought of such an extremely pointless thing. It can’t be helped, Nanaki hates that person. There is no way I can recognise that weakness as part of Mother’s bloodline.

strong independent imouto

Ah, never mind about that fool. More importantly, I think a smile is necessary to give the uneasy Meia-sama a sense of security. And so Nanaki, yes, it’s Nanaki’s job. As a master maid, I always carry a hand mirror around with me. Hello to Nanaki through the looking glass, you’re beautiful today too.

….

Hair check, smile check, spirit check. No problems, I’m in the best condition. I guarantee that I will definitely be able to give the best smile. Nanaki’s smile not only has the natural blessing of wiping away bad luck, but also various blessings such as ensuring your family’s well-being,  greatly increasing luck with money, becoming peerless and a one-man army.

…………………

Hm? The last ones are wrong? I see, Friend, you are wise. But the details don’t matter. Because the important thing is to convey that with Nanaki, it will be alright. For that, what is necessary right now really is a nanakismile. Nanaki’s smile that grants courage to Akiha and Fio-san, that blows away Meia-sama’s uneasiness.

super buff

Watch carefully, this nanakismile, the final piece.

but it’s Meia

“Please rest assured, Meia-sa——Gueee!?”

“I’m relying on you alright? I’m really relying on you, Nanaki, got it?”

“Me, Meia-sama!? Her windpipe! You’re blocking her windpipe!”

“Stay quiet Fio!”

R.I.P. Nanaki

Nanaki’s consciousness feels like it’s going to fly away.

intermission

Following Salia’s lead, we advanced down an awfully long marble corridor. While feeling slightly nostalgic about this corridor which I had passed through a few times when I was the Lightning Empress, I looked at master’s back. Not a speck of any sign of hesitance, seeing how he is curiously looking around the corridor, it feels unnecessary to worry for him.

he’s fine

At the end of our walk which did not particularly have any conversation, we arrived at the room where she waited.

shut-in?

“It’s been a while, Nanaki.”

“It has been a long time since we have met, emperor.”

hi~

A tall woman with dark hair. Her sharp reddish brown eyes were looking at Nanaki. (T/N: 鳶色(tobi iro) was used here, reddish-brown, but 鳶 is also a kite(that bird of prey), you’re free to interpret this as you like~) The apparel she was clad in all bore the crest of the imperial family, her age is roughly around forty. Since the last time I met her, she might have aged a little.

stress?

Suddenly, I felt like she was waiting for something. Of the things I can think of, I see, she is waiting for Nanaki to lower my head. Even though I already have no reason to lower my head to her, it is just a little funny, so I chose to speak.

no more respect

“It seems you called for us, what business may you have with us?”

“…………I have heard from Silver and Envy. About the hypothesis regarding the prophecy and about Nanaki’s constitution.”

and?

Her expression did not change, but I could tell that she thought about something for just a short while. That’s why I had thought that it would be better for both of us for Nanaki not to meet her.

risky

“The prophecy will come about somehow, that’s fine. The problem is, it was ‘completed’. I will say it bluntly, come back Nanaki. There is something you should do for humanity.”

“I refuse.”

NO

What’s this person saying.

nonsense

“You intend to disobey the emperor’s words? You should’ve learnt from Envy, Nanaki.”

“Yes. But I prioritise Mother’s teachings. Not your words.”

“Humanity has survived by the words of us, the imperial family. Do you not understand that?”

“Then should they be wiped out? By your words.”

Nanaki is the one in charge

Nanaki can do that, emperor.

because strength

“……I can see it, her will. Even after dying, you still bear your fangs at me?……sixth.”

sixth?

Saying some incomprehensible things, her expression made a complete change. The only thing I understand is that currently, Nanaki is not a desirable condition for her. Emperor Aberta G Frost, in her eyes are reflected someone that is not Nanaki.

….sixth….

“She probably noticed it. So she raised you such that I cannot control you. A foolish woman that prioritised her daughter’s life over humanity’s existence, how annoying. Getting in the way of humanity’s dearest wish, she taught that key only how to survive. And as she predicted, now there is only an uncontrollable monster here.”

…..sixth princess?

She talked about something. I could tell, that is most likely Nanaki’s roots. But I don’t particularly have any interest, so I ignored it. After all even if Nanaki knows that, Nanaki will not change, because all Nanaki needs is all that Nanaki has learnt from Mother.

Mother?

“I should have noticed it when I heard Envy’s report. The meaning of having been told that you were a special existence. I hadn’t thought it would be so convenient that it would be completed at the seventh. Thanks to that shallowness, she made the first move.”

…

She, if that refers to Mother, Mutsuhime, then that means the emperor was enemies with Mother. Oh my, then could it be, the emperor is Nanaki’s enemy? If it is an enemy Mother couldn’t defeat, as her daughter, Nanaki must erase that regret. How is it?

….simple thought process

“……Zean Alfred, order Nanaki. To serve me.”

“Is that the reason you summoned me?”

“You are her master. If Nanaki’s mother’s words are her pride, she should obey your words.”

“We’re going back, Nanaki.”

great

Yessirnanaki. This unworthy Nanaki shall lead the way. This way.

…escalated fast

“Stop them, Salia.”

ool

——ah, this one is a hindrance.

rip

“Should I kill you already?”

annoying emperor

I grabbed her neck. If I break it, she dies, a very simple thing.

she is weak

“……if I die, humanity goes extinct.”

“Nfufu”

superbia

So?

she doesn’t understand

“Wa, wait Nanaki!! I beg you, wait!!”

Salia can’t stop Nanaki

Salia begged, unable to move even a step. But Nanaki is always killing enemies. After all, if you leave enemies alive, they will come hinder you. Silver and Salia, Raicou and Envy. I’ve had interactions with the Five Emperors and bear various emotions about that. But, this one is no longer needed for Nanaki.

poof

So I will kil——

.

“Don’t make me say it twice. We’re going back, Nanaki.”

“Guuguu.”

….

My apolonanakies, hophop of reflection.

why stop Nanaki

“Why did she become a rabbit……”

reasons

A warning.
