Book 4: Chapter 54
When Luna woke up the next day, she found Nier had already gotten changed. Nier noticed Luna who was behind her wake up. She turned her head around. Her eyes were still red, but she had regained her calmness and resolve in her gaze. She looked at Luna, made a small bow and greeted her: “Good morning, Luna.”
“Ah… good morning.”
Luna looked at her blankly and asked: “Nier, you……”
“I’ve made up my mind, Luna. I love his majesty.” Nier looked at Luna resolutely and calmly continued, “I understand now. I understand now. If this is love, then I love his majesty. Maybe it’s because his majesty helped me. Maybe it’s because his majesty is the only one who accompanies me. But whatever the case is, I love his majesty. And I don’t intend to give up.”
“So……”
Nier looked at Luna with determination and replied: “I want to protect him at his side just like you, Luna.
You are his majesty’s personal servant, and I want to be his personal bodyguard. I don’t hate my identity as a Valkyrie. It’s just that I want to be a Valkyrie that protects his majesty. I want to keep him safe from harm. In the past it was her majesty’s job for me, but this time, it’s my own wish.”
Luna stared blankly at Nier who was standing before her with determination and sighed. Luna revealed a hopeless and envious smile, knowing that Nier couldn’t be stopped. She said: “Nier, you really are cool, huh? You are so decisive and cool even in love. I truly envy you, Nier. It’s so admirable for you to have that sort of courage. Come what may, we shall serve his majesty together from now. Please look after me.”
Luna looked at Nier and opened her arms.
