Hi, got back late yesterday so I decided to improve my site a bit since I was too tired to type this chapter on the computer (It was super long).
Anyway, wordads approved my application yesterday so I add it along with Night Mode toggle. The b.u.t.ton is on the right side under the Kofi b.u.t.ton, for mobile I think you have to scroll down under the comment section (I don"t know how to add it at the top. ? )
Because I changed the site"s theme, tell me if you found any weird place or dead link, Thanks.

Nanami"s feeling
Takioto Kousuke is different.
As a Maid Knight, I am not in the position to choose my contractor. Among the angels, there are those with a position that has the right to choose their contractor but for those within the lowest caste like myself, I basically don"t have such a right.
Be that as it may, the fact that I had formed a contract with Takioto Kousuke, in a certain sense could be considered both a good and a bad thing.
Originally, I should be forming a contract with a dungeon master or someone with a similar position so there shouldn"t be any connection between myself and a normal person.
However, I had contracted myself with Takioto Kousuke.
In a certain sense, that might just be my bad luck. Originally, a maid knight has built-in knowledge of dungeon management and how to serve their master via knowledge transcription magic. But Takioto Kousuke is not on the side of dungeon management. Instead, he is on the side of the conqueror, the type of person that denies the meaning of my existence itself.
But a contract is a contract. To me, once I made a contract with someone, that contract is absolute. There"s no mistake that a path had formed between myself and Goshujin-sama. Thus, I have become Goshujin-sama faithful maid knight.
I was worried about how it will turn out. According to the transcribed knowledge, the Maid Knight Series is considered as a disposable tool and basically wouldn"t be taken good care of by most people.
But aren"t you treated me as you equal, Goshujin-sama?
As to test him, I intentionally act rudely toward him and tried his patience in a lot of ways. But somehow he never gets angry at me. Well, there are times that he joke around to hide his embarra.s.sment though.
Anyway, Goshujin-sama never gets angry at me. Instead, the amount of retort he inserted wouldn"t lose to a comedian. If I am allowed to say it frankly, that was very enjoyable for me. To exchange such meaningless banter was to show how much trust people held in each other, or so the knowledge inside me said.
Moreover, the fact that he placed so much trust in me when we just recently met is already a mystery in and of itself.
Instead, I am worried for him. So I told him something that I shouldn"t. I told him how I should be treated originally and even told him things that will become inconvenient for me in the future. Well, he would notice them anyway without me telling.
It seems like Goshujin-sama has his own illusion of what angels are like. The lowest caste angels, in the words of humans, are something that should be treated similarly to a slave. The moment I told him that, I felt a little regret inside me. How will he treat me after this? Why did I have to go and dig my own grave?
Still, Goshujin-sama surprisingly planned to treat me preciously.
Rather, he was quite sympathetic toward me. Let me say it clearly. Compared to the other maid knight from my knowledge, his treatment toward me is the best.
Above all, Goshujin-sama said that I am needed. In a certain meaning, for a created being like myself, there"s no greater word I could have received.
There"s no happier thing than being contracted to Goshujin-sama.
Another thing that surprised me was the amount of Madam candidates. I intended to call them that as a joke but everyone seems to be serious about it, I don"t know what to say.
However, there are not just good things. I can think of several basic problems as well.
One of them was the dungeon that he recruited me to capture. Goshujin-sama said that he read a doc.u.ment about this dungeon, the [Shadow Ruin]. But if there"s such a doc.u.ment then why doesn"t this place discovered as a dungeon and why he didn"t bring said doc.u.ment with him in the first place, there are many points I can use to corner him. However, since he doesn"t want to talk about it, I didn"t ask him anything. He will tell me when he feels like it, I will wait for him until then. I want to hear it from him.
Also, please forgive me for getting stuck on the dungeon entrance but I have something to say about it.
Just what is with the entry condition that you have to sacrifice used panty?
The dungeon master who created this dungeon must have a screw loose in his head. And why does it need three panties for that matter?
Well, that was one problem down, we somehow managed to enter the dungeon, we defeated the boss and found a treasure chest, that"s where another problem surfaced.
With the *Gatan* sound the floor beneath Ludi-sama and Yukine-sama split into two. As I was still surprised, Goshujin-sama jumped into the pitfall himself.
Goshujin-sama lift both of them up by switching places with them he managed to save both of them. However, he got drenched in the liquid in their stead. I was relieved from the bottom of my heart that it was not a fatal trap. Then I reflected on my own worthlessness.
Apparently, Ludi-sama and Yukine-sama were speechless about how Goshujin-sama saved them at the cost of himself. If I was put in the same situation I would feel the same way as well.
It took ten minutes to wipe Goshujin-sama clean.
It was due to my mistake that Goshujin-sama had to experience such a thing, I have to thoroughly reflect on myself. Normally, a master should already punish me for such a mistake. But still, Goshujin-sama said that it wasn"t my fault, he even praised me about how reliable I am.
And above all, he said that quarreling with me was fun for him too.
Knowing that I wasn"t the only one who had fun, it made me even more happier.
Now, it"s no good to just be happy. Someday something like this will happen again, in preparation for that day, I will continue to improve my trap detection skill. Thinking so, we made our way to the front of the treasure chest.
Ludi-sama carefully tried to open it but it was apparently locked by pa.s.sword. However, it seems like Goshujin-sama knows that pa.s.sword so he proceeded to open the chest. But just how did he knows the pa.s.sword?
Anyway, there are five rings inside the chest. As far as the gems and magical power concern, four of them hold the power to enhance attributed magic at an intermediate level while the other one only has the ability at the elementary level. As poor as my ability is, I still can"t appraise the elementary level ring. But it seems like Goshujin-sama was after its ability, let"s cut down the sleeping time and do more training. It"s great that I trained with the bow all night and it turned out well, there shouldn"t be any loss with this.
Well, according to Hatsumi-sama, it seems like mine and Goshujin-sama"s values are different from everyone else. He made a face like those four rings aren"t probably worth that much. I thought about confirming it with him later but I think that I am not mistaken.
I might be stirring a hornet"s nest so I decided against asking him but a dungeon like this can"t produce such high-quality items. My knowledge says so. These rings are probably intermediate cla.s.s items.
Therefore, you can only think that mine and Goshujin-sama"s common sense are the abnormal ones while Ludi-sama and the other"s commonsense are the normal commonsense for this world. With that as the case, the only conclusion that can be drawn is…………….
When I was thinking so, Goshujin-sama handed me the fire attribute ring. Apparently, Gohshujin-sama will take the ring with the lowest rarity for himself and give the rest to us.
I understand that because Ludi-sama and others sacrificed their panties to enter this dungeon while Goshujin-sama discovered the dungeon and solve its puzzles.
That"s why I was surprised about why I am receiving such a great thing.
Does this box have a recognition misalignment ability that could yield such a result?
That incongruity has also led to a new impression of Goshujin-sama. Did he aim for this or was he just doing unconsciously? You actually aimed for this right?
Either way, as expected of Goshujin-sama. Whether he intentionally did it or unconsciously did it, giving rings to four people at once was not a feat any playboy could do. Well, I understand that he wasn"t proposing though.
However, as I saw Ludi-sama secretly trying to put it on her ring finger, it wouldn"t be a mistake for anyone to say that it was a proposal. The same goes for Yukine-sama who took a glance at Ludi-sama and was considering doing the same herself.
Well, both of them changed their minds and put the ring on their right-hand ring finger though.
Of course, I grandly put it on my left hand. It"s a matter of course. If you wanted to appeal to Goshujin-sama, you have to be more direct about it, I will advise them about this later. Please follow Hatsumi-sama"s example…… No, Hatsumi-sama is too straightforward. I was surprised about her at first too.
Come to think of it, I wonder why Goshujin-sama acted so suspiciously after we left the cave? Especially when he speaks to Hatsumi-sama, Ludi-sama, and Yukine-sama.
—————————————————————————
That night after we got back, Goshujin-sama called me.
Is it service time? I asked, but it seems like that"s not the case. I told him that I am ready any time and listen to the main subject.
"You are going to another dungeon?"
"I want you to come with me."
I don"t mind if you just said "come" instead of "want me to come" though.
Seems like Goshujin-sama told the Hanamura family that he already took measure to guarantee the safety margin and received the permission to challenge the dungeon with only the two of us. I see, tomorrow is a school day huh. That"s why Hatsumi-sama and the others won"t be coming along this time.
"There"s something that I need to do right now……."
"I understand but isn"t it better to take a break first? All you do is challenging the dungeons lately."
Hearing so, Goshujin-sama scratches his neck with his right hand.
"That"s true but I have a goal that I want to achieve…..I want to do my best now."
"A goal you want to achieve?"
"Aa, actually I want to take over the world."
He said so embarra.s.singly so I decided to tease him for now.
"Don"t tell me, so you want to become a comedian♪"
"How did it comes to that! I"m not trying to take over the world with a joke, It"s magic, Magic."
"Ah, I see….."
"Why are you so unmotivated!!"
"I thought that you were going to become a comedian, I even thought up a name for our duo."
"Well prepared aren"t you! By the way, what"s the name?"
"Yes, I took mine and Goshujin-sama"s name into consideration and came up with the name [Nanami Revolution]."
"There"s not even a [T] from Takioto in there. Just where did you put in my name."
"No helping it then. Let"s agree on a compromise and go with [Nanami Extreme…………….!"
"My name wasn"t included after all huh?”
I smile widely.
Talking with Goshujin-sama is really fun. He"s gentle, treated me well, and I am happy just by being with him. Just what can I hope for more than this?
Apparently, his goal was to become the strongest. And he said that he wanted me to help him.
This, I told him many times before but Goshujin-sama doesn"t understand how our contract work. Even though I have to do everything as he ordered, he always put it as a request. You see, according to my maid knight knowledge, there"s no one like you, you know?
If you ask me with such a humble att.i.tude….. Then I have no choice but to help you with all my power right?
"Can"t be helped then. After you become the strongest, do keep practicing your comedy routine properly okay?"
"You still want me to become a comedian?"
Goshujin-sama returns to his room with a cramped smile. For a moment I thought about getting in his futon to warm it up for him but decided against it. Tomorrow is a dungeon again. I want to train a little more.
Well, there are a lot of people who will be a great backup for him and Goshujin-sama is capable enough for the battle himself if there"s one person that I should watch out for, then it"s her.
I think it"s nothing but I will be on my guard. If something were done to Goshujin-sama then he would probably say [Well, it can"t be helped.] so I can"t help but do it.
However, as far as our conversation goes, it seems like she isn"t an enemy. she already swore that [I will become Goshujin-sama"s ally] and [to never do anything that will disadvantage him] after all. In the first place, she told me that she likes Goshujin-sama. That"s why I think that it"s safe.
However, her existence is separated from the ordinary. I wonder why she is here? No, this area is already strange in the first place.
Seriously what"s this place. I have never seen anything like it before.
Apparently, she planned to have a talk with Goshujin-sama one day, but that"s still not today.
However, I will not take any chances.
That"s why I will be careful of her.
The headmaster of Tsukuyomi Magical Academy, Hanamura Marino.
TLN: Did the plot just thicken?
