Strong Person

“You have become quite used to it, that was perfect skill.”

“Thank you very much. Head butler Ridolf.”

good job

Once the water is boiled, the idle chatter ends as well. Our conversation will continue at the next opportunity. The objective of showing him Nanaki’s skills as a servant has been fulfilled. I would be happy if he has revised his recognition of Nanaki with this. Fufu, a little more to the kitchen, only around a few more steps.

but its like a dream

“Then I will excuse myself.”

“Yes, I will leave it to you.”

ever retreating

I will bet my pride on it.

dont bet your pride on smth impossible

Complete all preparations and slowly push the tea wagon along. Speed is only for when it is necessary. Nanaki is the maid of the Alfred house that can be called one of the great nobles right now. There is a need to obtain dignity matching the prideful master. A maid’s failure is the master’s shame, this is the essence of a maid.

where did Nanaki even learn this

Be a good servant fitting of a good master, Nanaki.

always improve~

I tell myself that multiple times. Being satisfied with the current situation is not acceptable. I can still keep going, I can still learn.  Nanaki is beloved Mother’s daughter after all. Because I am special.

being special requires effort too

Advance with this vow carved into my heart. Nanaki will grow in these days spent in the world I have affirmed. Someday, will I be able to become a wonderful woman like Mother? Will I be able to become  a wonderful mother? Nanaki knows the ideal. That’s why I will chase that ideal, no matter for how long. Until the day I reach that back.

not sure if she is ideal

“……The sky is blue today too, Mother.”

but she gets the job done

A report to the blue sky that can be seen from the window. I thought of my mother as I advanced down the sunlit corridor. I will leave the things I really want to report til the next rest day. With an application for a holiday, I will be able to have a rest day soon. I will go meet her on that day. To meet Mother sleeping in the forest.

after all, Nanaki lived

There is a mountain of things I want to report. Where should I start talking from, if I don’t organise it all now, I might use up the whole day. Overcoming grief, facing the future, having had many encounters. Those is the reasons why I haven’t visited in a long while. I think Mother will probably be happy.

of course

I probably can get praised. So I will look forward to that day.

Nanaki has lived well

Lost in thought, I headed to the courtyard where the two waited. When I exit the residence, I am assailed by the blazing sunlight and burning sky. Summer will end soon, yet the sun is still working hard today. That spirit is good, Nanaki cannot lose.

Nanaki will never lose~

Celestial nanakismile. Everyone around the world, it’s Nanaki.

brighter than the sun~

Conquering the heavens. Sunshinenanaki.

the true cause of summer

“I have made you wait.”

no worries~

And switch to maidnanaki. Carry out my duty with elegant conduct. Serve tea to master and Shiel-sama enjoying friendly banter under a parasol. Quietly stand by afterwards.

be a good maid

“Then you have reconciled with the Arkahns?”

“Rather than reconcile, its more of a collaborative relationship.”

impossible to reconcile with that guy

While listening to the idle talk, I wiped my sweat. Under this strong sunlight, and dressed in the classic maid long skirt, even I would sweat. Even the Nanaki who has high resistance towards heat is slightly troubled by this. Let’s take a shower later. It’s not acceptable to be sweaty as a woman.

no, it’s fine.

That is how it should be but.

but?

“Then it seems your work is going well. As expected of Zean-sama.”

“Ye, yeah. More importantly erm…..are you okay?”

“Yes, I am fine.”

ah yeah

Looking at Shiel-sama sweat like a waterfall, master began becoming worried. To Shiel-sama with her obese stature, this summer’s heat is her mortal enemy, then it should be better to talk inside. Despite that, is there some kind of reason for her to choose outdoors? Although Nanaki does not know her true motives, I do know one thing.

?

“Master, how about continuing indoors?”

tact

That is that this is a situation where Nanaki must say that. Originally I should refrain from interrupting the friendly chat of master and his fiancee. But signs of mild dehydration can be seen from Shiel-sama. It’s not a situation to panic about, but something must be done before this develops too far.

won’t work though

“Pl, please wait……I am, fine……”

“But——”

she won’t let you

Our eyes met. She is clearly declaring it, ‘don’t interfere’.

the battle has started long ago

“Today I have came because I have something to discuss with Zean-sama……erm, because it’s something I didn’t want anyone else to hear so……”

“……so you chose to do it outside. Nana.”

“Understood.”

and Shiel will make the first move

Leave that place with a bow. I can easily imagine what kind of discussion it is. I will not do something like interfere with that. There is no need. Although she is my love rival, Nanaki is captivated by her beautiful heart. That’s why, limited to this one time, I will send her these words. Yes, limited to this time only.

with respect

“——may luck be with you.”

pause

pause

A few minutes later, I was called by master and returned.

fast

Shiel-sama’s expression as she leaned back exhausted in her chair is not good. It seems her consciousness is hazy. The extreme tension along with this heat seems to have led to a deterioration in her condition. Quickly approach Shiel-sama and support her. Although she is covered with slimy sweat, I did not find her dirty.

how could one

Looking at her with her hazy consciousness, I thought. Such a desperate woman is cool. Did she manage to convey her feelings which she has developed for a long time? When put into words, her feelings lasted nothing but a few minutes, but Nanaki knows they were the real thing. Nanaki has gained a good love rival.

wheres the fun without challenge

I wanted to confirm it. So I looked at master’s face.

did she really?

“She broke our engagement. She told me to choose properly.”

she did

The usual lack of expression. Although he does have a very slightly troubled look, that is nothing more than something stuck on. He is neither sad, nor is he happy. It made me think that he was only looking at the truth of having his engagement broken. Just a little, those sapphire eyes were scary.

too unfeeling

“……I will carry Shiel-sama.”

“——Hey, Nanaki.”

master is still a mystery

When I turned around, master was looking at me.

what is it?

“To choose means that there is more than one candidate right?”

…..yes

Those are the words Shiel-sama spoke, and not Nanaki. It didn’t seem like he was just asking. It seems like wanting to confirm something, he is asking Nanaki. It felt that way.

he is not dense

“……who could that be?”

I wonder

If it is revealed here, will Nanaki win? Then there is only one answer.

Because Nanaki is proud

“I do not know.”

To fight fairly

——I don’t need it, I don’t need this chance.

no cheating

Nanaki has also finally understood. That just wanting is no good. Even if I convey my feelings to master right now, Nanaki cannot be proud of myself. Properly facing her straight on, Nanaki will obtain it fairly. Shiel-sama knew it. The most important thing, is how it is obtained.

the journey

Don’t underestimate me. Nanaki will not lose, that’s why this kind of thing is not necessary. Nanaki will win even without this. If not then Nanaki cannot be proud of myself. Our fight must be a fitting fight for her who wished for a battle and threw away her position of a fiancee, where she could have gotten married without doing anything.

hnour must be met with honour

“Excuse me.”

besides

And also, somehow, the current master seems different from the master Nanaki likes.

?

No matter how large a body, with Nanaki’s physical capabilities and by using magic, there is no problem. For now, I carried her to Nanaki’s room and let her rest. This can be said to be an emergency situation, so please endure with a servant’s room. After laying Shiel-sama down, immediately put ice I brought from the kitchen on Shiel-sama’s brow. Next, wipe her sweat with a towel.

dont forget to let her drink water

She is my love rival.

her fate is decided

Because of that, her death is not allowable before her duel with Nanaki. If she dies, then do it after losing to Nanaki. Because I know her beautiful heart, because I recognise her. Because of that, Nanaki wants to win you as a woman. Like how you think that way, Nanaki also wants to win.

enemies deserve respect

To your beauty, to your pride, my compliments.

or you cannot truly win

“You did wonderfully, Shiel-sama.”
