This is a notice to all players of Yggdrasil: Our game severs for Yggdrasil will be shutting down in the next four months on Friday at 11:59 p.m. We thank you for choosing our product and services, we hope to continue to have your business in the future.. We hope you have enjoyed playing Yggdrasil.
"Huha, the shutdown day is already here the time just flew by. I hope more of the others show up. " thought the lone black robed figure staring at the notice as they sat in the guild meeting room.
She was Rina Kezuzuki or as she went by in the game Mona the guild master of Ainz Ooal Gown, she was a Lv 100 undead magic caster.
Her character was a [Empress of Death], the female version of the undead racial class [Overlord].
In real life she was a secretary for a CEO of a large business corporation, but in truth her job was a glorified maid.
She had a huge portion of her boss's workload forced on her, practically working almost all the time. The amount of vacation days she did get was only one week a year.
One of the only benefits she got from such a harsh job was the huge paycheck at the end of the week.
But between the long hours, lots of extra work, and stress, it was safe to say she didn't like her job, as well a lot of other things. Like how the world was so polluted and harsh, how she was so lonely.
She had no close family and the only relatives that she did have lived far away, though they didn't want anything to do with her.
She was the child of their daughter who they said shamed them by eloping with someone they thought was beneath them.
During her time online she discovered a fantasy world game called Yggdrasil. She found the game fascinating and quickly became heavily invested in it, overtime finding friends that she saw as family.
Her character's appearance was that of a 7ft tall bone white skeleton. But because she wanted to also have a unique appearance for her character, she spent 2/3rd of a month's pay to get special DLC one time offers.
Among them were limited edition god class items, such as a set of armour called the [Gilded bones of Death]. A collection of necromancer and undead skills and spells from, The Grim reaper's bundle and other things.
One of the unique undead skills was [Unliving flesh], it was a skill that created a custom fitting flesh armour. It created a customizable character model over her undead character, and it concealed their undead appearance by making them look alive.
It also provided the player with a set of armour that had decent defensive status that they could put clothing or armour on top of it.
Mona had modified her flesh model to look like a beautiful deathly pale pearl white human woman. Her eyes were blood red and the white of her eyes were shiny obsidian black, her hair was jet black with a deep red tint.
She had styled her hair to be short and spiky, her 7inch sharp nails were solid black with each finger wearing a elaborate magic jeweled ring.
She wore a large jet black hooded academic robe with gold and violet accents that had huge shoulder pads with huge red orbs embedded in them. She wore a robe underneath it that was solid black with bright lavender emblems on it.
She wore large gold cuff bracelets with 4 deep blood red orbs encrusted in them on her wrists and ankles. She also wore a exquisite large thick gold collar around her neck that had a sapphire blue orb mounted on it.
Together she and her friends had built the legendary guild Ainz Ooal Gown, enjoying their time away from real life. Unfortunately her beloved game was going to shutdown today.
A few weeks ago after receiving the notification, she had sent all her friends a message to come by at their earliest convenience. Only a few logged on but couldn't stay long due to their work schedule in real life.
While the rest sent her messages saying that they had already deleted their characters. They expressed their sympathy to her, and hoped to find another game to play together again one day.
"Only Touch Me, Peroroncino, Bukubukechabma, Tablula, and Ulbert showed up in person, it's sad everybody else is too busy to come on the last day." Mona thought, gazing up at the ceiling of the guild meeting room.
Suddenly a notification popped up on her screen.
( Herohero has logged into the game.)
"Huha, hey there Mona." Came the tired voice of the elder black slime.
"Oh, Herohero it good to see you, I thought no one was going to show today." Mona said using a smile emoji.
"Same I guess everyone else is busy. I'm swamped with work as well I find myself losing sleep and track of time these days, I feel like my avatar looks." Herohero said leaning back in his chair.
"That doesn't sound good you, should really see a doctor about that Herohero." Mona said worried for her friend.
"Yeah I plan on doing that, hey I'm glad to see the guild base again. You've been taking care of it all this time, thanks Mona." Herohero said using a happy face emoji.
"Well this is the place we built together, this place meant a lot to us. "Mona said, remembering all the fun they had designing it.
"Yeah it sure was fun, hey sorry to say this but I have to get up early for work tomorrow so I've got to get off." Herohero said, yawning as he opened his game menu.
"Oh, ok rest well then." Mona said, trying to hide her disappointment.
"See you later. " Herohero said, logging out before Mona could say anything else.
"Since theirs only 15 minutes left, why don't we stay till the end and chat?" Mona said to the now empty room.
"Huha, why did they leave, how could they abandoned the home we built? " Mona sighed as she slumped into her chair.
"No, no one did I understand that they have jobs and other things going on in their life's." Mona said with a tired sigh.
"Might as well take this with me, even after all the hard work we put into this, we never used it once. No reason to really, no one ever got to the throne room anyway." Mona thought as she walked up and picked up the staff of Ainz Ooal Gown.
" I think I'll go out in style, like the boss of a dungeon sitting on their throne." Mona said as she headed for the throne room.
As she walked down the grand hall leading to the throne room, she saw the combat maids that her friends made.
"Oh, these are the Pleiades we stationed here as a mini boss for those who got this far. Hmm, who was this again? " Mona thought, looking at an elderly white haired butler.
"Sebas Tian, ahh Touch Me's NPC, well since its the last day of the game I'll have them tag along with me "follow me." Mona said using a command.
As she entered the massive luxurious throne room she saw an NPC she didn't see very often.
She was Albedo the overseer of the guardians of Nazarick, she wore a pure white dress that showed off her curves and lot of her cleavage, she had a gold spider web around her neck and chest.
"Aahh, she is beautiful Tablula you did a great job making her. Oh her bust is bigger than her head, Tablua mush have made some adjustments to her the last time he was here. " Mona thought, seeing Albedo's large bust.
" Now that I think about it I never have read her background, I wonder what he put for her lore. " Mona said as she opened the data sheet.
" Wow, he wasn't kidding when he said it was a lot, wait...what, "she's a perfect beauty and is madly in love with Mona. " Mona thought, blushing a bright red in real life.
" Looks like Tabula made me Albedo's love interest, that was nice of him. Considering I've never really had much luck finding a girlfriend before. Mona thought, closing the data sheet.
"She's madly in love with Mona, heh kind of embarrassing, but my friends didn't mind my interests." Mona thought, as she commanded the NPCs to stand by and bow.
She looked at the time on the game clock, it had less than 15 seconds left till the game would shutdown.
"Tomorrow is my last vacation day for this year, ahh it was fun while it lasted though. I wished it didn't have to end." Mona said, closing her eyes as the clock counted down.
11:59:57
11:59:58
11:59:59...
"Hmm?" Mona thought as she opened her eyes, seeing she was still in the game.
"Did they move the time back or is there a glitch?" Mona thought as she tried to open her menu only for nothing to happen.
"What's going on?" Mona said, speaking in a flat, cold, and lifeless voice.
"My Lady is something wrong?" Came a beautiful voice from her right that she had never heard before.
Mona turned her head to find the voice, only for her eyes to land on the still kneeling form of Albedo she was looking at her with worry.
"What is going on, what is happening, player created NPC's are not suppose to move on their own!" Mona thought, panicking internally as she stared at Albedo.
Dispute her shock and surprise, her undead flesh covered face didn't move. Having been set to show minimum amount to no emotion. Her expression was set as half asleep, and had her eyes were set to a half closed eye look, making her look bored.
"Lady Mona please tell me what's wrong and it will be fixed immediately!" Albedo said worryingly. She rushed over to the front of the throne concerned, mistaking Mona's silence for displeasure.
As Albedo stopped right in front the throne her large chest bounced, entrancing Mona until her emotional limiter activated.
"Huha, it is nothing Albedo, but I think Nazarick's outer perimeter needs to be checked on, Sebas would you go and scout the outside?" Mona said surprisingly calm.
"Yes Lady Mona." Sebas said as he stood up and went to do his given task.
"Pleiades guard the 9th floor while he is out." Mona said giving her next command.
"What should I do Lady Mona?" Albedo said as soon as the battle maids left the room, looking at Mona with a loving gaze in her eyes.
"Hmm, why don't you come closer?" Mona asked in her monotone voice.
Thankful for her expressionless face and calm voice hiding the nervousness she felt welling up inside her.
"Of course!" Albedo said with enthusiasm as she walked closer. Getting practically right in Mona's face, causing her cleavage to bounce again.
"Ahh, she smells wonderful, wait smell wasn't apart of the game." Mona thought, surprised by the sweet lovely fragrance wafting off of Albedo.
"May I hold your hand Albedo? Mona asked calmly, but feeling nervous on the inside.
"Of course Lady Mona, you may hold it as long as you like." Albedo said sweetly, holding her hand up for her.
As Mona wrapped her undead hand around Albedo's hand, she could feel Albedo's smooth soft skin, her body heat, and her pulse.
"Wow she's really alive, this is amazing." Mona thought, oblivious to Albedo's rapped breathing and the deep blush on her face.
"So if the situation is what it appears to be, everything has become real, and the NPCs are alive and have freewill now." Mona thought, trying to figure out what was going on.
"Lady Mona~" Albedo said sofly, her voice was hot and had a sultry tone it as she spoke.
"Hmm?" Mona said, being brought out of her thoughts.
She saw a very excited Albedo smiling with a predatoral look in her eyes locked on to her.
"Oh, sorry Albedo I didn't mean to keep holding your hand that long, Albedo you okay?" Mona asked, a bit taken back by Albedo's state.
"This is it isn't, you want to take off my clothes or do you wish too?!" Albedo said hungrily as she got closer to Mona.
" Ahh, that is not a normal reaction to hand holding." Mona thought, feeling a little afraid.
"Why is she acting like this wait, "She's madly in love with Mona." Oh right...that's why." Mona thought, remembering the text.
"I always liked her as a character, but now that she's real I can't really say I don't find her attractive. But this is to sudden, my heart isn't ready." Mona thought, pulling herself together.
"(Cough) , now is not the time for that Albedo." Mona said, trying to defuse the awkward situation.
"Ahh, yes my apologies Lady Mona." Albedo said, composing herself as she stepped back.
"I do have an order for you though." Mona said, thinking on what her next move would be.
"Of course, I would be happy to serve you." Albedo said happily, ready to fulfill her Lady's command.
"I would like you to gather the guardians on the sixth floor, minus Gargantua andVictim, within the hour, I will be waiting for your arrival." Mona said flatly.
"As you wish." Albedo said as she bowed before leaving the throne room.
"Now what do I do, first I need to see if I can even use magic." Mona thought a she held out her hand, causing the floating staff of Ainz Ooal Gown to return to her.
"Now lets see, I need to apply buffs before I go, then see if I can use my items." Mona thought as she stood up, casting several mana and defense buffs on herself.
"Good, magic works, now hopefully the guild ring does too." Mona thought as she looked at the ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.
She thought of where she wanted to go, and sent a mental command to the ring.
" To the sixth floor. " she thought, before teleporting to her destination.
"Huha, what a relief the ring works, I can still use all my items. That means all of my equipment works too." Mona thought as she looked around the dark corridor.
" It looks like Albedo and the others are still loyal just like they were made to be, but what about the others? Mona thought as she remembered the other NPCs of Nazarick.
" I'd hate to fight them, we did pretty much turned our base in to a monster house basically. Hehe so many raiding party raged quite. " Mona thought, chuckling at the memory of that huge invasion that failed at the 8th floor.
"Now if I remember right, the dark elf twin sisters that Bukubukechabma made were stationed on this floor, were could they be?" Mona thought as she walked into the arena.
"Hump!"
(Thud!)
Moments later a caramel brown dark elf child with gold blonde hair and a blue and green eye jumped down from the VIP section of the arena
Flipping through the air skillfully before landing with incredible force. Causing a bit of dust cloud to form at their feet, but otherwise completely unaffected by the impact.
"Victory!" Aura said, flashing a smile while making double V hand signs before running up to the Empress of Death.
"Aura." Mona said, recognizing her just as the dark elf stopped right in front her.
"Hello Lady Mona, welcome to the sixth floor amphitheater, it's an honor to have you here." Aura said happily.
"I will only be here for a bit, I hope that doesn't bother you." Mona said, watching Aura's reaction.
"What are you saying, your the supreme leader of all the supreme beings! Ruler of all of Nazarick, no one would see you as a bother, least of all me and my sister! " Aura said matter of factly, her voice filled with confidence.
"Well that is good to hear by the way, were is your sister?" Mona asked looking around for the other dark elf.
"Ahh one sec, Mare your being rude to Lady Mona! Stop cowering and get down here already! " Aura yelled back at were she had just jumped from.
"I'-Ill just use the stairs, I'll only be a minute." Mare said nervously, looking down from the VIP section.
"Mare!" Aura yelled with an angry tone.
"A-alright already." Mare said before hopping off the ledge and landing on the ground, having to fix her skirt.
"Good grief, we're falling asleep here." Aura said as her sister finally made her way over to them.
"Sorry for the wait Lady Mona." Mare said standing beside her sister.
"It's no problem, while I'm here I would like is for you two to help me with something." Mona said, raising the guild staff for them to see.
"Oh is that the mighty weapon that only you can use, it looks amazing!" Aura said looking at the staff of Ainz Ooal Gown.
"It really is amazing." Mare said, seeing the golden staff of Nazarick .
"Yes it is, it is the result of all the members of Aniz Ooal Gowns combined efforts, a symbol of our legacy and power." Mona said, fondly remembering all the adventures she had with her friends.
"Wow that's so cool! Aura said admiring the weapon.
"It is, I'd like you to help me try out a few things with it. " Mona said.
"Sure, well get right to it!" Aura said excited to help.
"Also Aura, I've called for the other guardians to meet here, they should be here soon." Mona said informing her of the others impending arrival.
"Ahh, I guess Shalltear will be coming too. " Aura said almost whining.
"Yes." Mona said, remembering the vampire girl.
After they had set the targets up for Mona she raised her staff and activated one of the gems.
[Summon: Primal fire elemental]
The red gem on the staff glowed and a massive dragon like being of fire appeared in a burst of
" Ahhh, can we fight it?!" Aura asked eagerly, much to her sisters dismay.
"Sure, have fun." Mona said, showing the barest signs of a smile as she commanded the fire elemental to attack them.
The fight was easy for the twins with them being LV 100, plus with combined teamwork they could change out and support each other in combat.
"[Message], hmm well it was worth a try." Mona said using the message spell, only to find it failed to connect.
"Yes Lady Mona, something you need?" Came the voice of Sebas connecting to the link.
"How does it look out there Sebas?" Mona asked, curious as to what the butler found.
"Well, we may have a problem." Sebas replied.
"Hmm, come to the sixth floor arena and report your findings." Mona instructed.
"As you wish Lady Mona." Sebas said before cutting the connection.
"Wow that was really fun, we haven't had exercise like that in a while." Aura said as the remains of the fire elemental burned out on the ground.
"After all that you two must want some water." Mona said reaching into a black void and pulled out an infinity pitcher, pouring the two a glass of water.
"Thanks, Lady Mona I always thought you'd be scarier." Aura said as she and Mare finished their water.
"Oh I could do that if you'd like." Mona said, undoing her [Unliving flesh] skill.
Her flesh looked like it was rotting as it turned to black slime, receding into her bone. Showing her shiny pure white skeleton with a large glowing orb floating under her ribs.
"No, no we like you just the way you are." Aura said, Mare nodded in agreement.
"That's nice to hear." Mona said, reapplying her undead flesh form.
"My, my am I the first to arrive ~" Said a sweet lovely voice.
"My, my am I the first to arrive~" Shalltear said as she stepped out of a portal.
"Oh, Lady Mona the most beautiful being I've ever had the pleasure to lay my eyes on, my beloved ~" Shalltear said lovingly as she ran up to Mona and wrapped her arms around the taller woman's neck in an affectionate hug.
The vampire pulled Mona down to her height, burying her whole head deep in Mona's large bust.
"Aaaahh! I can feel her boobs, their real and their bigger than her head, and she's a foot taller than I remember her being! "
"And what's with this about being her beloved?! When did Peroroncino put that in her lore her, was it the last time he was here!?" Mona thought, to shocked to react to Shalltear hugging her.
"Hey Shalltear let her go, your liable to drool on her. " Aura said, sounding a bit jealous.
"Oh, hello shorty l didn't see you there , it must be hard to put up with such a brash older sister Mare, how do you do it? "Shalltear asked mockingly as she let go of Mona and looked back to them.
"Hmph, miss fake boobs." Aura said in retort.
"Hmm, sorry pipsqueak these are real, you'll just have to deal with your washboard chest." Shalltear said proudly, grouping her own chest to emphasize her point.
"So what, I'm only 76 years old I can still develop, it's only a matter of time! " Aura said as the two argued back and forth.
"Huha, just like old times." Mona thought as the two started to argue, she remembered the times Peroroncino and Bukubukechabma fussed at each other.
" What's going with those two?"
" Whatever. it. is, they. are. being. noisy.
"Hmm?" Mona was brought out of her thoughts, seeing a large white blue bipedal insect and figure in armour approached them.
"Stop. acting. like. children. in. front. the. ruler." Cocytus said, scolding the two other guardians.
"Alright, that's enough." Mona said calmly, causing Aura and Shalltear to stop their fussing immediately.
"Sorry Lady Mona." The two said bowing as they apologized.
"Glad to see two have come Cocytus, Morela." Mona said, looking at the insect warrior and armoured figure.
"I. will. always. come. when you. call. Lady Mona." Cocytus replied proudly, expelling cold mist from his mandible.
" You can always count on me to come as well Lady Mona." Morela said, smiling proudly as she placed an armoured hand on her chest plate.
She was Morela, the floor guardian of the fourth floor, and was NPC of her friend Dralza. She was a Lv 100 mystic warrior, a magic using warrior similar to Shalltear's build.
She was a dragonoid that used elemental magic, weapons, and dragonic skills and abilities like her creator did. She also had tank qualities, complementing her high damage output with a good amount of defense.
She was designed to look almost identical to the character Mordred, from Fate Apocrypha. Currently she wasn't wearing her helmet, revealing her face that looked the same as Mordred's.
Except her eyes were bright amber and her eyes had slit pupils, her skin was light maroon red, and her hair was bright shiny gold.
She also had eyebrows that were made of gold scales, short pointed ears, and a few gold scales under her eyes.
She wore a suit of armor, just like the character she was based off wore, with a few changes.
Her armour was dark ruby red, with back and gold accents and runes on it, the crest on her chest plate was black and red. It was an image depicting the a dragon's head, it was also the guild crest of her creator.
She also had a long sword called the Fire Dragon crest sword, it was one of the elemental weapons given to her by Dralza.
It was similar in seeing to Clarent, except that the blade was dark red, with gold runes and had a black hilt with gold edges with a red dragon head on the blade guard.
It also head a and a upward facing gold dragon head on blade guard, she also had a dark red round shield on her back with gold and black accents and runes.
"Sorry for the wait, I hope you all weren't waiting too long. " Demiurge said, walking behind Albedo. Walking beside the Arch-demon, was the other floor guardian of the seventh floor, Azura.
She was a Lv 100 Seraph Empyrean, the highest tier of the angles in Yggdrasile. She had stunningly beautiful looks, back length deep sapphire blue hair down in a ponytail, flawless white skin, and honey gold eyes.
She wore a long flowing seamless gold silk toga like gown. It draped over her feet and had a open back, reveling her six gold tinted snow white wings.
She also wore a sapphire jeweled silver bracelet on both wrists and silver necklace encrusted with small sapphires and a large sapphire in the center.
She was one the NPCs made by of Vezlura, one of Mona's closest friends, and was like a sister to her and Ulbert.
Both Demurige and Azura guarded the 7th floor, it was a floor with two levels of stark contrast. While he presided over the fiery lands, Azura presided over an area above the floor.
Her floor was made in the skies of the 7th floor, it was an area the same size as the 7th floor, and was made of floating land, clouds of gold and white. Instead of demons, it had high tier angles and monster of the light element.
"My Lady, we the guardians pledge our fidelity." Albedo said as she and the rest of the guardians bowed before her.
To be continued.
