Genjiro walked along a beaten path under a canopy of verdant green, letting the sound of rustling leaves and bustling birds trap him in reverie.

Man, this past week has been amazing. There is so much life and color in this world!

A squirrel darted across the path ahead of him and disappeared into the brush

Everytime I see the night sky I can't help but pity the sky on the sixth floor, awww Blue-Planet-san, what would you give to see the stars from this world.

His stomach rumbled and he licked his lips in anticipation. He'd been waiting for an excuse to have a meal

Never have I been so glad to play one of the only undead races in YGGDRASIL that gets benefits from filling a stomach. If I hadn't, I wouldn't have had a reason to be carrying Demeter's Cornucopia around, the food that comes out of it is some pretty top tier shit. Still... I don't know why or for how long I'll be in this world.

He looked up and saw freckles of sunlight trickling through the leaves above him and sighed internally in reverence. Awww, so pretty~~ I know it probably won't be smart to get to attached to this world. Well, It's not like I have anyone waiting for me, not since, well, you know.

He looked back down at the path as to not needlessly kick a poor wayward stone

Still, anything to get away from from working at that chemical plant with all those yellow-helmeted idiots hounding me about what they should do about this-and-that not producing the right concentrations , or my boss telling me off about some nooby under me accidentally burning his hand off.

Genjiro once again looked at the trees around him. For as much as I complain about all the pollution on earth, I've done more than my fair share of harm to the environment working at that plant. Should I ever find myself in the situation of a world wide industrial revolution, I should remember to preserve the beauty of this world at all costs.

There was a rickety looking wooden sign post up ahead of him and forced himself out of reverie for a moment so he could take out his glasses from his pocket dimension and read it.

"E-Rantel, huh, what's with this kingdoms obsession with needlessly hyphenated city names? Then again, I'm looking at the name translated through the glasses, for all I know their language lacks the concept of the hyphen. Oh well back to the sweet embrace of daydreaming ~." and with that, Genjiro dived back into reverie, this time reflecting on the events earlier that week.

I've learned a lot about this world so far, about adventurers, kingdoms, empires, races, magic, martial arts…. and man, I knew how powerful I was when I overhead the way those guys were talking about 3rd tier spells, but damn were those goblins weak, the moment they turned to flee they died from one tick of my passive. Nothing like a real battle back in YGGDRASIL.

The immolationist job class rewards a suicidal play style. It's abilities encourage gathering lots of enemies and making them focus you. As the name suggests, It is quite literally suicide to play as the class, being as its strongest abilities have the side effect of killing the user. It's a perfect class for destageists because they effectively have two health pools. The main advantage to the destageist race is the fact that they can change their racial abilities based on the race of the body they are being said, a level 5 destageist can have 5 different bodies they can choose from, offering a large variety of racial bonus. So why would Genjiro have a human body, which offers no racial bonuses, as one of his possessions? Well, a standard strategy Genjiro liked to employ was what the other members of Ainz Ooal Gown (AOG) called the "Damsel in Distress act".

After scouting out a party that they want to PK, Genjiro runs up to them on low health (courtesy of [False data: life]) and asks for assistance against the heteromorphs who are chasing him (AOG). While a little suspicious, most players are happy to overlook it for the sake of roleplay. Once AOG arrives he quickly uses most of his assassin class skills to burst down the highest DPS member of the party to get them into range for an insta-kill spell to be effective. A squishy human/geist assassin standing over the corpse of a dead party member is not long for the world, which is perfect for the immolationist class. Activating the skill [Divine Immolation] erupts the body into flames and starts a 5 second countdown until the user blows himself up dealing massive damage roughly equal to 2.5 [Fallen Down]s. The enemy has two options when confronted with this, group up and slay Genjiro before he goes nuclear, or run away. If they try to slay him, the friendly druid can usually keep Genjiro alive long enough to complete [Divine Immolation] and if they try to run away, the immolationist class has a skill that deals passive damage to enemies that have their back turned to them, the druid can also usually cast roots to keep them from running away to far. Needless to say, a successful casting of [Divine Immolation] is an almost guaranteed victory. After the human body is destroyed, Genjiro is left unhurt, floating in his ghostly looking destageist form (think of mistmen from skyrim), ready to highfive his team mates on a successful PK. Being in bodiless form drains a destageist's health and stamina until they rest at 20%, so usually AOG is nice enough to bring another one of Genjiro's bodies. If not, destageists can always hide in a teammate's shadow to stop the health drain. The cost of making a possessable human body is 50,000 gold, the usual yield from a high level total party PK is usually 10 times as much so it's a good trade off.

Aww~ Looking back on it now really reminds me how fun it was playing YGGDRASIL with Ainz Ooal Gown

He saw a small clearing up ahead of him and patted his stomach Guess it's time for lunch

E-Rantel had a few small plots of land in its wealthier districts marked off as public parks. One of the parks was no bigger than a baseball diamond, but it still had the feeling of an oasis, a reprieve from the bustle of the city it was circumscribed in. The park had a few vagrant trees and a small fountain at its center where a pair of children no more than 5 years old splashed about. It lent a relaxed atmosphere and It also had small a grassy knoll, both of which were currently being exploited to their fullest by a middle-aged man with ashen-eyes and a grey cloak.

Rather than busy, I would say this city is lively. The supine Genjiro closed his eyes and focused his tracker skills in an attempt to pick up useful bits of information from conversations around the city. This city possesses such a neighborly air, something that has been long gone on earth. Oh whats this?

He honed his senses on a group of adventurers and listened in "Yea, didn't you hear, he took down a basilisk in single combat!"

"What? No way, that's not something humans can do."

"It's true! He also took down that vampire with all that forest."

"He isn't lying, I saw the damage myself, Momon-sama and that beautiful princess with the raven hair, Nabe, they are the real deal."

Oh now that's an interesting name, Momon-sama~ Thought Genjiro as he smiled to himself under his hood. Who could "that beautiful princess with the raven hair, Nabe" be? The gamma maid maybe? I don't know, the maid I know the best of course is the zeta maid, Mrs. Entoma Vasilissa, but that goes without saying, I put a lot of work into her. Oh wait…

A small epiphany crossed his mind, If this Nabe really is the gamma maid, does that mean all the NPC's in Nazarick are alive?

He shuddered as he contemplated the implications of that. Well, sitting here isn't going to do anything. Wait for me just a little longer Momonga.

He ended his supine and started walking toward the adventurer's guild hall. Awww~Such a pretty sky

.

.

Copper, iron, silver, gold, and platinum were all metals that existed back on earth, 29, 26, 47, 79, and 78 on the periodic table respectively. So where does mythril, orichalcum, and adamantite fit in?

Genjiro stood outside the guild hall watching the adventures leave and enter. Or more precisely, he was watching the little bits of metal dangling from their necks.

In YGGDRASIL, we had all those metals and more, but it was a game so I never really put thought into what they would be scientifically. Mythril resembles polished iridium, and orichalcum has a pinkish/purple tinge similar to bismuth. But a few days ago I saw a guy wearing a full suit of mythril, and if it really was iridium, it would be much too heavy for that. And as for orichalcum, bismuth is too soft to hold and edge. So I doubt it could really be those two.

But the real mystery is this adamantite. At first I thought it might be some kind of alloy of cobalt due to its blue tinge and its description: "harder that any metal, highly resistant to wear and weather". Looking good so far, that sounds like something someone might say about an alloy of cobalt, but the problem comes from its other descriptions: "Extremely rare, could be mined strait from the ground and used without processing, lighter than steel and can cut through diamond". Cobalt isn't particularly rare, and it is never in a useable form in nature. Also there is no way a simple alloy of cobalt could cut through diamond, especially not one that happened to be less dense than steel.

I guess magic really is just one of the accepted rules of this universe, these metals probably only exist due to the existence of magic. For all I know they might even exist outside the idea of a periodic table and chemistry.

Wait what am I doing just standing out here daydreaming, I came here to find Momonga.

He pushed through the doors and immediately noticed everyone looking at him out of the corner of their eyes. I thought my appearance would seem pretty normal among these adventures, but it seems like they recognize a stranger immediately. Awww~ stop looking at me like that.

He made it to the receptionist "Hi, how can I help you?"

"Hi, I would like to know where I can find the adventurer Momon-san?"

As he muttered the name, he felt the gazes of the adventures turn a bit more sinister, the receptionists demeanour shifted as well

"Momon-sama is a very important and busy man, I can't just send him every stray that comes walking through those doors."

"But it is very urgent I speak with him" Genjiro said trying not to let his uneasiness from all the gazes show in his voice.

"Uh huh, and what exactly is your relationship Momon-sama?"

Awww~ this lady is relentless "U-Uh w-well…."

Just then a middle-aged man with grey hair appeared behind the receptionist

"It's okay, I'll handle this. You said you were here to see Momon yes?"

I'm saved! Thankyou gramps! "Yes, I'm a close friend of his, I heard he was staying in E-Rantel, I assumed someone here might know where he is"

"A friend you say? Might I ask what your name is?"

Genjiro quickly recalled the alias he had been using for the last week, "It's Zen"

Ainzach looked into Genjiro's eyes for a few seconds, probably trying to determine the stranger's intentions when finally, "Alright, you seem innocent enough, he is staying at the Shining Gold Pavilion"

After receiving Ainzach's directions to the inn, Genjiro shook his hand, thanked him and quickly hurried out the door Aww~ I'm not used to being the center of attention like that, I'm glad I ran into someone friendly.

The receptionist and Ainzach watched Genjiro's retreating back as he ran out the door

"I thought our policy was to not inconvenience Momon-sama in any way"

"This Zen guy may have seemed like a bit of a pushover, and maybe he is."

Ainzach leaned in a little closer and lowered his voice so that the adventures in the hall wouldn't hear him, "But I got the feeling from his eyes that he is incredibly strong, maybe even as strong as Momon, well I doubt that's possible. At the very least, I don't think he is someone who is unimportant."
