Zero no Tsukaima:Volume2 Chapter5 ~Preview~

Chapter 5: The vacation before departing

A group of travelers decide to stay at the most luxurious hotel (Goddess’s Right?) at Lo Roche. Because everyone had been riding on horses all day. (Goddess’s right) counts as a luxurious hotel even for the rich and noble. The dining table, floor, are all chiseled from the same stone, and was scraped clean and bright, so bright one can see one’s own face on the surface.

Louise and Warde returned from booking a ship at the Docks. Warde sat down then bitterly add: “The vessel to Albion will not leave until the day after tomorrow”

Louise puckered her mouth and added, “Such an urgent mission.”

Chi Ren (Saito?) can finally take a breather, and they can rest tomorrow.

I never been to Albion so I don’t understand, why isn’t there any vessels leaving tomorrow?

Translation stopped when I realized I read this text somewhere and see it is already translated on Wiki. So I forward down…Please read this as right after the part posted on the Wiki althrough if someone is willing to compare my translation to the text and help me spot some errors, let me know

Louise shakes her head, thinking Warde is joking. It is true that Saito’s speed increase dramatically when he wield a weapon, and become extremely strong, but to say he is the legendary familiar is unbelievable. If it is really like that, then something must be wrong. I am after all is “Louise the zero”.

There is always failure, there is no way I could have the power Warde mentioned.

“You could become a great magician. Yes, like founder Brimir, and leave your name as a great Magician. I believe so.”

Warde stared at Louise warmly.

“After this mission marry me, Louise”

“Ah…”

The sudden marriage proposal left Louise speechless.

“I am not only just a Mage captain of the (Something knights), some day, the entire nation, become (something untranslatable involve shocking) Hengika’s noble’s (something untranslatable)” “No, But..”

“But what?”

“I….I am’ still..still”

“You are not a child anymore, you are 16 years old. You have reached the age when you can decide things. Your father agreed too. But…”

Warde stopped here. Then he raised his head, then leaned next to Louise’s face. (Translation questionable for the last action)

“It is true, I never came to look for you, and I have to apologize. Marriage is not something to be spoken easily, this I also know. But Louise, to me you are vital important.”

”Warde…”

Louise thought about it. She don’t know why Saito suddenly appeared in her mind. After she marries Warde, then she will leave Saito the familiar somewhere out of her control.

I don’t understand why, but I constantly feel this is wrong. If it is a Crow, Owl type of familiar it wouldn’t be so trouble some.

If, no one take care this idiot from another world, what will happen to him?

[Un-translated name, I think this refer to Kitche] or…. Saito don’t know Louise knows, often the maid from the kitchen who feed him….they will take care of him right?

Don’t understand why this is extremely annoying. Louise thinks this is just a girl’s innate competitiveness (translation questionable). Although Saito is an idiot, and often made me mad, but I don’t want him become someone else’s property. Because he is mine, Louise’s property.

Louise raised her head.

Still… Still…

Still?

“That, that I am not an magician of your caliber yet, I still need to study..”

Louise lower her head, and kept it lower and murmured.
