Five Emperors a.s.sembly

“Excuse me for interrupting. Master, Meia-sama.”

time

In any case, I first returned to master’s side. Once I clad myself in lightning and sprint, returning doesn’t even take a second. I would prefer not to interrupt master’s punishment, correction, their sibling skinship, but it is an emergency situation so please forgive me.

armageddon

“What is going on, Nanaki.”

“Likely an enemy attack.”

…not that simple

The first one to ask that was Meia-sama. I gave her an immediate reply.

quick

“What should we do?”

good

Next was master’s question.

no waste

The two of them asks Nanaki only the necessary things accurately. No, seriously, these siblings are quite amazing. I am truly grateful for not having to go through any useless explanations. Should it be said that they were prepared, or possibly, it really should be said that they are deviated. Either way, Nanaki likes it. Being prepared for anything is a good thing.

alwas

“Akiha and Fio-san will arrive soon. Once the two of them arrive, please wait in this house until everything ends. Please take care not to go outside.”

dangerous

Learning from the two of them, Nanaki also said only the necessary things. There is no point talking about what is happening and with is the outside situation. Right now in this situation, there is only one thing needed. To not go outside this house. That’s it.

stay

“What will Nanaki do.”

“I would like to protect everyone here, but conversely by being here I would likely bring danger, so I am thinking of taking a stroll and selling the emperor an expensive debt along the way.”

“This maid really is considerate of the master.”

al for master

I think that is something we can all agree on.

yes

In fact, this attack is completely different from those the capital have expereinced before. Based on the mana response that Nanaki’s senses are picking up, there is a need for the Five Emperors to go out onto the frontlines. So Nanaki thinks it would be good to take action in order to sell the emperor a debt and give master an advantage in later negotiations.

planned

It seems master also understands that, he did not find fault with Nanaki leaving this place.

smart

“O, Oioioioi Zean!? Wait here oi! Without that monster maid won’t it be dangerous for us!?”

but here

But just one person who was trembling in the corner of the room shouted out.  It is often said that those fools with no resolve or understanding are just like the unsightly Arkahns, Friend. Hm? Never heard of that? Nanaki too actually. We did it, we match. Yay.

(T/N: not sure about the first sentence, けれど、部屋の隅で身体を振るわせているただ一人は、まあ叫ぶ。so I just did it liberally)

“True, what about that, Nanaki? With you leaving, this place cannot be called safe. The ones that can fight are at most Me and Fio along with Arkahn-sama’s servant.”

“As long as you do not go outside, it will be safe, Meia-sama.”

“The proof for that?”

“——Because my friend will be protecting this estate.”

Nzgul?

And so Friend, it is this Nanaki’s request. Please, I would like you to protect this estate, master and everyone else. This is where Nanaki’s heart is, Nanaki’s one and only weakness. In order to leave it behind with peace of mind, your power is needed no matter what. Nanaki’s Friend, Lightning of Legend Ilveng=Nazgul. Please lend Nanaki that power of yours that has once slain a hundred G.o.ds.

pls

Just as expected Friend shook his head.

c’mon

Well, I guess so. Because you are kind, no matter what I say you will worry about Nanaki. But I will venture to say it Friend, ‘don’t look down on me’. This time the three great G.o.ds will come too, I know that. On top of that I am saying, ‘what about it’. This Nanaki is saying I am leaving this to you, so leave that to me.

…is Nanaki that strong?

You, my best friend, is doubting me?

well I am

“Thank you”

I softly said my words of thanks to Friend who had turned away as if he had finally given up. With this the thing that can be called Nanaki’s only weakness is gone. Now then, although it is a sudden attack, but if I can fight as I like, then I have no complains. I will definitely kill my enemies, kill enemies you meet is Nanaki’s motto. If they are coming to be killed, that means they are saving me the trouble of going to kill them.

(T/N: Nanaki’s motto: 会敵必殺, help, anyone has a nicer sounding suggestion?)

“Meia-sama!”

“Are you safe? Vilmott Arkahn-sama”

they’re here

With Fio-san and Akiha’s arrival, I b.u.mped fists with Friend. Please protect everyone with those large hands.

bye

“Now, Master, I will be going.”

“Aah, I leave that to you.”

itterashai

In those eyes, neither hesitation nor fear could be seen. Then, what is in those sapphire eyes directed at Nanaki? Nanaki knows that. These eyes, this blue, is what Nanaki calls trust. In that case, Nanaki shall answer that. I will show that I am special.

Uniquely Nanaki

That is the duty of his maid, Nanaki.

part of the job

Now, I have no more worries. I became lightning and dashed through the capital’s sky. Along the way, I burnt through the bugs in the way and headed to the palace where the Emperor is. I landed on top of the gigantic roof and looked around the concentric pentagons.

chaos?

Destroyed anti-air magic installations and black smoke rising from here and there. The occasional explosion I hear and large vibrations indicate the battle is still continuing. Oh well, I guess it’s as expected, but the imperial knights and magician are all being pushed back.

the best?

The reason is evident, it can be clearly seen even from a distance.

G.o.ds?

“……transcended, ones.”

….other than the Five Emp[erors

No, to be precise they are not. Those are all weak G.o.ds, but looking at their movements, it is unthinkable that people of that level took down G.o.ds. Well, those G.o.ds and humans probably have a common interest. For example, destroying the capital. This country has many enemies anyway, it is sufficiently possible.

ah

And so as expected, we really have to make a stand.

the true ones?

“I can’t believe it’s transcended ones.”

“Can those really be called transcended ones?”

“But they are still too much for those that are not Five Emperor Candidates.”

“And there are a lot. A thousand? Two thousand?”

swarm tactics

Hm, how long has it been since the Five Emperors have stood together like this.

has it ever happened?

Sword Emperor Silver, Flame Empress Envy, Martial Emperor Raicou, Sky Empress Salia. And although former, Lightning Empress Nanaki. The greatest fighting strength of the capital has been a.s.sembled, but first I will make it clear.

“I will aid you this time. Silver.”

“……Hmph”

insolent

He really has such an impudent att.i.tude, but this man is not so foolish as to refuse my aid. He is the leader of the Five Emperors, Sword Emperor Silver. He has the duty to deal with the capital’s crisis that is occurring right before his eyes right now with all his strength. Right now he probably wants some solid fighting strength enough to leave aside our disputes.

practical

As for Nanaki, Nanaki would like to sell a debt to the Five Emperors, and consequently, to the Emperor for Master. So this time, a united front is truly desirable for both sides.

win-win

“Don’t hold me back, Nanaki.”

“Do you think I can be stopped just by holding onto you? Silver.”

“Okay okay, stop quarreling.”

kk

Even so, I still dislike what I dislike. With this being in front of the sister that I owe a great debt to, there is no choice but to let it go with this much, but there is nothing more infuriating than this. What do you mean this Nanaki holding you back. Punskonanaki.

-3-

“Anyway, pseudo-transcended ones huh……..”

faek

——this might be, just a little troublesome.

“What’s wrong? Nanaki.”

trouble?

As I was pondering it, Envy spoke to me, seeming a little worried. Both Friend and this sister are the same, why do they keep worrying about Nanaki. Nanaki is already a splendid adult, a grown lady. I would like to say that they are being a little too overprotective, but this is also love. Nanaki shall accept it.

yes

“Nothing, I just thought this might be the reason Leon was kidnapped.”

“……I see, they intend to make Leon the vessel for the three great G.o.ds?”

r.i.p. leon

If, that is the case, that might be more troublesome than the three great G.o.ds. Even if not at Nanaki’s level, that is also Mother’s blood relative, his latent potential far surpa.s.ses Silver and Envy. The proof of that is how he showed instantaneous growth in that battle with Nanaki.

Nanaki is alr maxed tho

And the most troublesome thing is that Leon and the three great G.o.ds’ objectives happen to match perfectly. If, Leon and the three great G.o.ds fight like Nanaki and Friend, then they will be the most formidable enemy I have ever faced. Armaments manifestation with the power of the three great G.o.ds along with monsters that can materialise independently like Friend.

Maybe—

“Well, it doesn’t matter.”

“No, it does matter.”

“There is no point worrying about it, Envy. You cannot know what you do not know. So, for now let’s start with finishing up what is before us.”

“It just became troublesome to think right?”

is she right?

She found out.

….

“So, do you have a plan? Silver.”

“No plan or anything. Never mind just knights, but all of the Five Emperors are going. Plans will only be shackles. Also, there is no time to drive a plan into this maid, and even if done she will just fail anyway. It’s a waste of time.”

“Okay okay, calm down calm down.”

(T/N: どーどー (Doo doo) is used here, apparently meant for calming maids horses in the past)

Get out of the way Envy! I can’t kill him like this!

sit

“There is no plan. Move independently, and——”

ready

That, is the signal for the start of the war.

start

After this, a battle without end will begin. It is irritating that Silver is the one that announces the start of it, but this is the capital. Guarding the capital is the duty of the Five Emperors. So for now, Nanaki will return just once. To protect this capital, I will become Lightning Empress Nanaki again. It is extremely infuriating, but I will yield the leading role. Let’s have you work as hard as you can, as the leader of the Five Emperors.

calm down Nanaki

“Destroy all enemies.”
