If You haven’t met Nanaki in Three Days, Look Well

——Dear Mother

hi~

I have finally obtained the opportunity to visit your grave.

nice to see you again

How has this season, where summer has passed and and the coming of autumn dyes the world, been for my respected and beloved Mother? Time passes fast, even though it was unbearably hot just a while ago, now the winds have begun carrying a comfortable cold. Sorry for not visiting for a long time, it’s Mother’s daughter, Nanaki.

hi

Please forgive my lack of filial piety until now. And please let me talk to Mother about the hectic days that have passed since that day when I was chased by the world. There is a mountain of things I would like to report. But unfortunately I do not have enough time. Thus, one thing first.

?

There has been a change.

to Nanaki?

That might have been Nanaki’s weakness. Until now, I have not questioned those existence that were there as if it was natural. Nanaki had though that it was natural, that it was fine to stay uninvolved as long as we do not bare our fangs at each other.

but?

Humans are so fragile, so weak, so short-lived.

yeah

That is why humans were ruled by gods. In order to resist, they laid their hands on the curse called magic, having trespassed on that, humanity might have been on the road to destruction. The strong survive and the weak perish, that is the world that Nanaki knows. Thus I had thought that it couldn’t be helped. The weak will be weeded out. Nanaki has lived like that.

but now?

That’s why——I don’t like it.

why

Why must Nanaki be ruled? Why must Nanaki be destroyed? This special Nanaki, this daughter of Mother, why must this Nanaki be looked down on? Is it because I am human? Is it because of humanity? or is it——because I’m Nanaki?

if they do that

If that is the case, if they did that.

then its just

Then it is an insult towards Nanaki.

so what will Nanaki do?

This fury, this rage, this bloodlust. That insult, that foolishness, that pity absolutely cannot be forgiven. That taints Nanaki’s pride, Nanaki’s pride of being the absolute strongest. That cannot be forgiven, that is the bond between Mother and Nanaki. A promise that must not be broken.

don’t let them deny you

I did not want to accept it. Somewhere in Nanaki’s heart, like the herds of the weak spread around the world, Nanaki had recognised the gods as a special existence. Foolish human, foolish daughter, foolish Nanaki. That is not right, that was not right. That was not Nanaki. The pride I bear is unparalleled, in that case.

there can only be one special

——Nanaki alone is enough for the special one.

only Nanaki

Isn’t that right, Mother?

yes

Do you remember the promise from that day, Mother? Mother had said that because Nanaki is special, Nanaki must be useful to many people. Nanaki will fulfill that promise. I had thought that I had broken that promise the day I was chased from the capital. That wasn’t right, I can still fulfill it.

you never broke it

The ones I should have been fighting with were not humans. That’s why, please, I would like Mother to bear witness. No need for worry, it is just one sentence. It is something to maintain the dignity that older sister taught me. I really am apologetic for always being a selfish daughter. It would be nice if you could scold me again one day.

…you deserve praise first

From Nanaki, to the arrogant rulers of the world.

gokigenyou

‘Nice to meet you’, I’m Nanaki.

 I always wake up easily, my eyelids are light today too. The first thing I saw upon waking up was beautiful red hair, a burning kind of red, yet a quiet red, overall it is a wonderful red. Yes, it belongs to Nanaki’s sister. I poked the cheek of the still sound asleep sleepyhead-san. Hmph, amateur. If this was the forest Nanaki grew up in, Envy would have already been eaten.

by Nanaki?

Goodmorningnanaki. Everyone around the world, good morning. It’s Nanaki.

ohayo~

Sleep, it is inevitable that information would be cut off during sleep. Then the first thing to do is to confirm the situation. Self-confirmation in this wonderful morning. Yesterday was the Five Emperors Conference, after that I went to Mother’s grave, paid my respects then quickly returned, and slept. That means this is the capital, the heavenly Frost Empire, Okay? Okay. Confirmation complete.

nice recap

My thoughts are cool first thing in the morning, so I called Nazgul. (T/N: クール(Cool)&コール(Call) similar in jap~) Morning Friend, it’s a nice morning? Did anything happen while Nanaki was sleeping? No problems? That’s great, the omens seem good for the new day. It can be said that it is expected of Nanaki to bring good luck. In fact, say it.

Nanaki brings good luck~

“Now then.”

morning stuff?

In any case, there is only one thing for Nanaki to do.

wake envy?

Maids do not choose the time and place. As long as I am needed I will be ready, this is Nanaki’s opinion. Thus, regardless of whether this is the capital or Freyline, what Nanaki does will not change. And so lightning speed formchangenanaki.

maid-mode

Baggy pajamas borrowed from Envy, purge, fetch the work clothes I received from my master with a moment’s delay. This is the proud clothing the symbolises the Alfred’s maid, Nanaki. After it was decided we were staying the night, I washed it yesterday evening without leaving a speck of dirt. You are welcome to praise me.

erai erai

Putting my arms through the sleeves of my work clothes, I stood before a full-length mirror and checked my appearance. A servant’s shame is the master’s shame, with that thought in mind, I did a strict check in order to once again spend a day carrying out my duty. Hair check, clothes check, smile check. Nanaki is perfect today too. Next put on the headband and do a spin.

whee

Early morning nanakismile. Everyone around the world, it’s Nanaki.

hi~

Nanaki is dignified and beautiful today as well. As expected of Nanaki, mother’s daughter. Like this I will not become master’s shame. I still have some time, but I think I will head to Nanaki’s house in the capital where master is staying. Ah no, before that it would be better to wake Envy I guess?

yesyes

“It’s morning, Envy.”

“Aah…….”

sun is rising

Same waking as always, unanakiceptable. Envy is weak in the morning. Even though she is the sun herself, the sun sinks right as it rises. As the heavenly Flame Empress, I would like you to be more dignified. No, I just need to make you so. That can be said to be the duty of the younger sister. Move fast, operationanaki.

operation start

“Please wake up.”

“……five more minutes.”

“Fine.”

sun never rose

Then I shall begin preparations during that time. Preparing the necessary things is no problem for this body that can move at godspeed. The additional sleeping time I allowed Envy is five minutes, first I boiled water instantly with magic and prepared teacups. Once that is done, add sugar and milk, last of all add one sakura petal that completes the refreshing morning.

wait, just to hot water?

Nanaki knows. Envy likes sweet things. Thus I added a larger helping of sugar. Grasping the person’s preferences is an important thing for a maid. How is it Friend? Nanaki is a splendid maid even in the capital right?

guess so

“Five minutes have past, please wake up now.”

“……morning.”

“Good morning.”

sun has finally risen

Seriously, as Nanaki’s older sister, this person that is too slovenly .

butbut…..sleep….

“I have prepared morning tea.”

“…………Nanaki made, this?”

“Yes”

why the doubt

Who else?

Nazgul?

Envy was looking at the tea Nanaki brewed with a face like all sleepiness had been blown away. Of course, since it is you, I thought you would react. It’s okay to be choked with tears over Nanaki’s growth. I want you to be proud. Because Envy, you were one of the people that nurtured this Nanaki.

so

“……”

how’s the tea

Older sister’s expression as she sipped from cup is very happ——-huh?

……..

“Nanaki, try drinking this.”

…….what is it this time

Hmmmm, Deja vu.

again

But no need to worry. I do not know what Envy is dissatisfied about, but this Nanaki will not get scalded like before. I will prove it.

dont think that’s the prob

Empty the cup I took from Envy in one gulp.

….

“Ah, hey, if you drink it all in one go”

rip nanaki

As I thought, it wasn’t hot. In fact it was at a suitable temperature, wonderful. But, I understood what Envy was dissatisfied about. This is, yeah, this can be called Nanaki’s fault.

it always it

“Oeeh…….”

bleuurgh?

Salt.
