Rimuru stood in front of Clayman as he tried to crawl away and begs for help.
"H-help me, Lord A-"
But in a split second Clayman changed what he was saying.
"-Kazalim!"
Rimuru noticed something from the corner of his eye.
On the outside of the barrier, the maid that he suspected to be the real demon lord seemed angered but immediately changed back to her stoic face.
"Beelzebub."
A black vortex covered Clayman as he yell until he was covered.

Walpurgis just ended and it was quite exciting. I need to report this.

'That idiot, he almost revealed Lord Ainz's name!'
I hit the wall in frustration, he could've ruined everything! I was about to hit the wall again until someone interrupted me.
"Lady Luminous, someone is here to see you."
It was Roy.
"Who is it?"
"Demiurge."
If my heart still pumped it would've stopped. Although Demiurge was one of the weaker floor guardians, what he could do would immediately made him one of the scariest floor guardians. I knew because I experienced it myself.
I remember trying to betray Lord Ainz a long time ago. I should've taken the words the guardians and the denizens of Nazarick said a lot more seriously. I just thought they were insane and thought myself to be smarter than the supreme being. But they already knew the moment I conceived the idea. I was caught and sent to Demiurge's "Farm". I suffered days of torture and being skinned alive. I thought Roy and Louis would notice I was gone but by the time I came back, I learned that I was replaced with an exact copy.
"Lady luminous?"
"Hmm? Oh, send him in."
The door opened to reveal a tall slender man with pointy ears, a spiked tail, and crystal eyes.
"L-Lord D-Demiurge, s-shouldn't A-Albedo b-be v-visiting?"
Albedo usually came because whenever Demiurge came, I would stutter and shake just like I was doing now.
"Well, Albedo has some business to attend to and couldn't make it so I volunteered to come. But enough about that, I came to tell you that it's time to start Operation Nova."
"Y-Yes Lord Demiurge."

Death
The slime was right, it was painful. I felt like I was floating until it stopped and was dragged in the opposite direction. Even though I couldn't see, I still saw a bright light.
I slowly opened my eyes to see Demiurge.
"You are lucky that Lord Ainz still has use for you. Your slip-up could've interfered with his plans."
"T-thank you Lord demiurge."
"You cost a lot of resources to cast I do hope you do not repeat the same mistake."
"I will not fail Lord Ainz again."
"I do hope so, Clayman. You'll be working with Shalltear from now on."
