Authors note.
So some people had commented that I shouldn't use characters like Tanya as NPC's, which to me makes no sense in games where I have been able to make NPC's. I have always used my favourite characters, so that is what I had Harry (Olga) do.
I know there are not many changes at the moment, but from the next chapter on, there will be far more changes.
Momonga will be going to E-rantel with Narberal, whereas Olga will be heading to Baharuth Empire and then to the Elf Kingdom when she learns more about it.
Both Olga and Momonga watched as the Floor guardians pledged them their loyalty. Olga was sure that Momonga was feeling quite uncomfortable, evident by the fact that Momonga had activated the skill Aura of Despair that seemed to be pushing down on the Floor Guardians. Though the skill seemed to have no real effect on Olga, she wasn't sure if that was due to her level or the equipment that she was wearing as in the game PVP had fallen off in the last two months, so Olga had ended up just picking up equipment that looked cool over stats.
Olga stood forward. "Rise our Guardians", Olga commanded.
Olga was used to giving people orders. In her long life, she had been in charge of many different businesses, teaching students and working in magical law enforcement, so she was able to fall back into this role once more with no effort, especially with her Race change which seemed to be having some effect on how she thought and how she viewed the world. Olga would have to find a time to talk to Momonga about this to see if it was just her or if both of them were being affected, something they couldn't talk about in front of the people of Tomb.
"Now, for anyone that doesn't know, the Great Tomb of Nazarick seems to have been caught up in some kind of Magic", Olga informed them.
"Although we do not know what has caused this incident, the Great Tomb of Nazarick has been transported from its place in the swamps to a vast plain," Momonga said.
Olga could see that all of the Floor Guardians looked confused about the situation, not that Olga expected them to, seeing as they were not even real before this happened, even with all of her experience of magic and runes, she had never seen magic able to bring things to life or transport something as big as Nazarick from one world to another especially given that one of the worlds wasn't even a real world.
"Then, I have a question for the Floor Guardians. Have any of you discovered anything strange in your floors?" Momonga asked a question that Olga hadn't thought to ask.
After hearing this, each Floor Guardian responded:
"There are no abnormalities in the 7th Floor."
"Same with the 6th Floor."
"The. 5th. Floor. Is. The. Same."
"Nothing strange has been sighted in the 1st to 3rd Floors."
"Momonga-sama, I shall Investigate the 4th and 8th Floors right away."
"There is no need to go to the 8th-floor Albedo. Just check the 4th floor," Olga said, knowing of the things that laid on the 8th floor are far too dangerous to let Floor guardians near with Victim and several Seraph Empyrean which were level 90 but were bound to the floor and couldn't leave, so getting past that floor wasn't something that anyone could do, and that wasn't including Rubedo who Olga was sure could beat both Momonga and her at the same time given how much money the entire guild spent on her.
Olga knew that Rubedo and Albedo were sisters, but Olga also knew that the bio of Rubedo made her somewhat unhinged at times, and she didn't think it was worth the risk of letting floor guardians go to the floor.
Albedo bowed her head deeply to indicate she understood, and then Shalltear said: "Then, I shall handle matters on the surface."
"No need we sent Sebas to have a look around before this meeting, and he should be here to give us a report any moment now," Olga said.
Some of the NPC's of Nazarick were specialised in one shape or form. Albedo had the most robust defence, while Sebas, in his true form, was the best in melee combat making him the best choice to look around.
"It's about time for him to return."
Just then, Momonga saw Sebas jogging over to them until he reached the Guardians and kneeled before Momonga and Olga.
"Momonga-sama, Olga-sama, forgive my lateness."
"It's fine. Start your report on the surrounding conditions." Momonga said, looking at Sebas.
Sebas raised his head and looked around at the Guardians kneeling beside him.
"Yes. To begin with, the terrain surrounding us for a kilometre in each direction is plain. There are no signs of man-made structures. I spotted some small animals, but there were no humanoid or large creatures." Sebas said.
"Are there any types of animals at all?" Olga asked.
"Just birds and small mammals like rabbits, badgers and foxes, Olga-sama," Sebas replied.
"I see. Then, were the plains you spoke of covered in frozen grass which would cut you as you passed them?" Momonga asked.
"No, it was just normal grass. Nothing special about it," Sebas replied. Olga looked at Momonga, confused.
"Was there anything at all that stood out from normal?" Olga asked.
"No, Olga-sama, there was no man-made structures as far as I could see either on the land or the sky."
"I see, so there was only a starry sky... Thank you for your hard work, Sebas." Momonga praised Sebas before falling silent. Olga wasn't sure what to think. It was clear that they were no longer in the game world, seeing as the rules of the game no longer bound them and that they were able to see in crystal clear clarity and smell things that you were not able to do in the game due to VR laws so that people can tell which world is the real world and which is the game world.
Olga wasn't sure if they could taste food, but she would try it later as Momonga was undead and didn't have a tongue. Then again, he didn't have a nose, and he could still smell things somehow, so maybe he could also taste food. The question was how they could still use YGGDRASIL's skills and magic.
"Guardians, increase the readiness of each floor by one level. We are unsure of what has happened, so do not act incautiously. If you encounter an intruder, do not slay them, but capture them alive at all costs. When you capture them, do as little harm to them as possible. I apologise for imposing such demands on all of you at a time like this." Momonga ordered something that Olga agreed with they needed information, and it didn't matter how they got it, but Olga would rather they didn't have to hurt innocent people. After all, there is never a short supply of evil people in the world.
The Guardians voiced their acknowledgement and nodded in unison.
"Now, how do we hide the tomb? If we are on plains, then the Tomb will stand out, and we have to do something about that," Olga thought aloud.
"Aura and Mare... can you conceal the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick? Simple illusions don't seem very reliable, and thinking about the cost of illusions gives me a headache." Momonga asked.
Olga didn't think that magic would work long term, and even if it would work short term, given they didn't know how magic worked in this world, there was no guarantee it would work on other sentients at all.
Aura and Mare looked at each other and seemed to do the whole twin talking with a simple look before looking at Olga and Momonga, and Mare spoke up being the twin that used magic, unlike Aura.
"U-using magic might be tricky and hard to keep up for more than a few hours. If we want to hide everything, we could cover the walls in dirt and make some fake hills and add plants for extra camouflage," Mare said quietly.
"Do you intend to soil the glorious walls of Nazarick with base dirt?" Albedo said in an ice-cold voice that made Mare pale and flinched away.
Mare's shoulders trembled, and although the surrounding Guardians remained silent, their attitudes suggested that they shared Albedo's opinion.
"Albedo... don't speak out of turn. We are addressing Mare." Momonga said in an authoritative voice that it took Olga by surprise with it coming from Momonga.
"Ah, my deepest apologies, Momonga-sama, Olga-sama!" Albedo said with her head as low as it could get and her face frozen in fear. Olga also noticed that the other Guardians and Sebas stiffened as well. Olga pondered if they thought that the warning was also to them as well.
"Can you conceal the walls by heaping dirt onto them?" Momonga asked Mare.
"Yes, yes I can, if you both allow it," Mare replied back after giving it a thought for a second.
Momonga and Olga shared a look before they both gave a slight nod.
"Very well. We shall assign Aura and Mare to carry out this task together. While doing so, you may draw the necessary supplies from each Floor. Since we cannot camouflage the view from the air, we shall use illusions after finishing the work on the ground, so nobody will be able to detect Nazarick from the outside." Momonga ordered.
"Then you are all dismissed to carry out your orders. Everyone take a break before starting and keep on high alert for anything that stands out," Olga added on.
Olga looked at Momonga. "I am going to check my castle and make sure everything is okay there before coming back to the main guildhall," Olga told Momonga before using the guild ring to teleport to the castle.
While Momonga may be worried about the guild NPC's, Olga was sure they were loyal, given her time talking to them and watching them. Olga wasn't sure, though, if her own personal NPC's were still faithful, and if they weren't, it would be a massive problem as she had spent an enormous amount of money so that she could have a castle full of NPC's and the top tier of NPC's were all nearly as strong as the Floor Guardians.
That wasn't including the Elf army that she made for roleplay. From what she could remember, there was a few thousand of them all around level 30 to 35. The world quickly came back into focus, and Olga was greeted with a large bone white castle.
The castle that Olga had built was massive and separated into the main castle in the middle and then the outer walls with barracks to house all the elf soldiers that she had bought with real money just to add more of a castle feel.
Olga quickly made her way through the gates and could see the soldiers all doing their training and bowing when they noticed her as she walked by, which was a good sign but what was more important was to see if all the high-level NPC's were still loyal. Olga couldn't think why they wouldn't be when all the Floor guardians seemed to be loyal, so she wasn´t overly worried.
As long as they were loyal, that would be fine and then Olga would have to find a way to integrate them with the Floor Guardians. The only problem Olga could see with that is that the people of her castle were loyal to Olga and not Nazarick as they were part of the back story that she had made for her character.
While Olga made her way through the castle, she could see the beautiful Elf and Dark Elf maids that were going about their jobs. She also noticed that some of the maids had different reactions. Some of them bowed, and others fell down to the floor, kowtowing at the sight of her, which confused Olga till she remembered the system she made for the castle.
All the people of the castle were part of Olga's harem and were of different statuses. At the very bottom were slaves who had been kidnapped, sold, gifted or lost as prisoners of war and had no status at all. Everyone one above them could do whatever they wanted to them.
The next were servants. These were people that had decided to join the castle willingly and were paid a wage, or in the very rare case, a slave that had pleased Olga or one of the top people of the castle as they could be promoted to servants. Still, Olga remembered that she had added to the background that only two slaves had ever been given that right.
At least that explained why some just bowed and why others kowtowed. The slaves must be the ones kotowing. She remembered that she had planned that she was going to have different uniforms with the slaves near-naked, but the R18 restrictions stopped that plan, so she just gave them all the same uniform. (Though she did have the more lewd uniforms stored in some of the Castles rooms.)
Above the servants were the retainers or officers. Most of them were Olga's lovers, and at the very top were Olga's official wives. She blinked as it just occurred to her that now that the game was real, she must have hundreds of lovers in her harem. From what Olga could remember, she only ever made two NPC's as her official wives, Chloe and Celestine, before getting bored of the backstory and just dropping it.
As Olga walked through the walls to the throne room, she wondered what she should do about the 'slaves' in the game. They obviously couldn't actually be hurt or abused in any way, and it had just been part of the backstory. Though, given how scared they seemed of her just walking by, Olga was sure that they could be abused now.
Walking into the throne room, Olga was glad to see that most of the high ranking NPC's were waiting for her and that they were kneeling as she walked in. There was the five-level 100's at the front. Merlin, Loki, Chloe, Celestine and Arya, in the hundred years that Harry had to spend alone, he had gotten fond of reading books and had fallen in love with what were now ancient classics, given that they came out in the 90s or early 20th century.
As for Loki, well, Harry was sure that his dad wouldn't let him hear the end of it when he died if he hadn't put the God of Mischief in the world, and it also fits with the game lore. Chloe and Celestine were part of the parcel for Olga, and Arya was just one of her favourite Elves, so she had to be in her world.
Olga slowly walked to the throne before sitting down and looking down at the NPC's. Olga wondered if they would be more loyal to her than the Floor Guardians. After all, Olga never made a Floor Guardian as she was too busy building the Dark Castle. Technically, all the people of the castle were her children or did they go off the backstory she had written into them when she made them?
"Celestine, after we finish this meeting, you're to promote all the slaves to servants", Olga ordered. She couldn't find it within herself to leave them as slaves. It wasn't like they had done anything wrong or were prisoners of war. They were NPC's that she created to fill a role, but she didn't want innocents to suffer, and given the backstory of many of the people in the castle, they would suffer. (Most of her Dark Elves had sadistic tendencies, and Tanya had written in her lore that she tended to punish insubordination with instant execution.)
Olga knew that Chloe would make them suffer significantly if they were humans, given her backstory had her as a sex slave to humans, not that Chloe couldn't do that to servants, but slaves were disposable, unlike servants. (Of course, given that all her NPCs were Elves, that point was redundant, thankfully.)
Celestine looked up, confused. "Yes, my Lady", she replied in a confused but happy tone. Olga knew that Celestine was one of the kindest NPC's that she had made in the entire castle, and she would help anyone she could, and her backstory said that she was kind and caring. (The only thing that could prevent Celestine from helping someone was if it was against a direct order of Olga.)
"The great tomb seems to have been transported to a different world", Olga announced.
"We don't know how it happened or where we are yet. Thranduil, you will ensure the army is on standby constantly for the next 24 hours. While I don't think we will be attacked, I don't want to be caught off guard if we are attacked." Olga ordered.
"Yes, my Lady", Thranduil said respectfully.
"Everyone else is to keep vigilant, and if any of the people from Nazarick ask for help in any way, you are to do your best to assist them. Am I understood!"
"Yes, Olga-sama." everyone replied synchronised.
Olga dismissed them, leaving the room empty other than two maids at the door and Chloe, who was her personal attendant that was meant to be by her side every moment of the day, another thing restricted by the game. Olga stood up and walked out of the throne room with Chloe and a maid following her. She made her way into her room before turning around to the maid.
"Run me a bath," she told the maid. It was really late at night when the game was due to close down, so both she and Momonga had stayed up till around midnight so they wouldn't miss the very end. So they were both super tired, even if it was daytime in this new world. Olga pondered for a moment, could Momonga even sleep now that he was an undead god? She had so much testing to do when she woke up. Olga hoped that he could sleep, or he would soon become mad from boredom.
Olga walked into the bathroom that had a layer of steam swirling, and covering the floor in the centre of the room was the giant bath, a ten-foot by eight-foot rectangle that the maid was filling up with a man-made river that came in from the side that made quick work of filling up the massive bath.
Olga looked down at her clothes and was lost at how to remove her clothing. Olga flinched, feeling someone pulling at her clothes before relaxing, seeing that Chloe was helping to remove her clothes with the maid coming to help a moment later.
Olga wondered if she was meant to feel embarrassed that two other people were undressing her, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all and guessed that her being a Dark Elf Empress had something to do with feeling at ease with people serving her. Chloe and the maid made quick work of her clothes and had her stripped naked in a matter of moments. Olga felt Chloe's hands roaming over her body. She shuddered pleasantly when Chloe's soft hands ran over the sides of Olga's large breasts.
"Enough, Chloe," Olga said as she walked over to the bath and slowly sunk into the water.
Olga heard the maid take away the clothing that she was wearing and could hear Chloe shifting about. She put it out of her mind as she relaxed into the bath. Even with Harry's vast wealth having a bath was not something that was possible in the last decades. Only the top 1% of people in the world even had clean water, and the price of water was so astronomical that no one took baths and had to make do with showers.
Although that was still better than the rest of the population, who used chemical showers, so getting to enjoy a hot bath was outstanding. Olga had to tell the maids that her baths needed to be red hot. She always took showers that left her looking bright red. Olga looked down at her arms and wondered if that would still happen given her new darker skin colour before sinking under the water for a few moments.
Olga enjoyed her bath for forty minutes before seeing her skin start to wrinkle up from how long she was spending in the bath. Olga slowly got out of the bath and grabbed the towel that the maid held out for her as Chloe stood watching, looking downcast.
Olga guessed that turning her down had hurt her feelings which Olga felt bad about, but there was no way that she was going to start having sex with her the moment she became real, and she certainly didn't plan on telling her that less than 2 hours ago she was not real. That seemed like a stupid idea.
Olga walked back into her bedroom. "My lady, may I start drying your hair?" The maid asked, holding another towel.
Olga looked at her hair that reached all the way down to near her thighs and concluded that she not only had no idea how to dry long hair but also didn't want to do it herself.
"You may", Olga replied before returning to dry off her body. It took Olga a total of fifteen minutes to have her hair dried by the maid before she padded her way over to the bed.
"Please wake me up at night or if something important happens," Olga said as she crawled nude under the bedsheets. She was far too sleepy to do anything other than sleep at this moment though she was excited to see the stars of this new world. Even with magic items to see the stars, they were nothing more than a projection. Olga also hoped that the stars would give her an idea of where she was and confirm whether they were in a new world. Olga would never have guessed all the Astronomy lessons that she was forced to take at Hogwarts would actually come in handy at some point.
Olga quickly fell asleep, making a note to see if she could use something like the softening charm on this bed to make it even better to sleep in.
Later, Olga woke up to Chloe shaking her awake before rubbing her eyes, seeing that she was indeed still in the game or what was a game and now real life.
"Is it night time?" Olga asked as she slowly sat up.
"Yes, my lady, it's been nighttime for about an hour", Chloe answered.
Olga rolled out of bed and walked into the dressing room, which was covered in hundreds of dresses and gowns covering the entire place with all of them befitting royalty. Olga was lost at what to pick as in the game, she just usually just wore the same costume every day and very rarely wore anything other than that.
Looking over, Olga picked a white and ice blue robe to wear before handing it to a maid to help her get dressed, something that Chole seemed to take delight in helping in. Olga was an arcane mage that had the class of Magic God allowing her a massive range of magic attacks, unlike Momonga, who, by taking Overlord for his most levelled race class and Necromancer and Master of Death for his job class Momonga was limited to mainly Nercormancy based magic with a few basic offensive spells like Fireball, Dragon Lightning.
Of course, being a mage class, Olga had no real ability in using a sword, not that it was ever needed. Most players would be long dead before they had the chance to get close to her, and if they did, the other people in Ainz Ooal Gown would take care of them, something that she would have to keep in mind. So she would either have to learn how to use a sword herself, or she would just have to have a level 100 NPC follow her around that can use a sword, something that Chole wouldn't be suitable for as she was also a mage class. (even if she had some levels as Swordsman too.)
Olga tried to remember which of her NPC were the ones that could use a sword well and would be free to travel with her.
Seeing that she was finally dressed, Olga decided that she would go outside and see the stars, something that she hadn't done for almost a hundred years. "Chloe come, we are going outside," Olga said as she left the room.
Olga used the guild ring to teleport her and Chole to the entrance of the great tomb. They made their way out of the hallway into the night. Olga was amazed by how clean the air was as she had long forgotten what it was like to breathe fresh, clean air. Olga was sure that Momonga would like it even more than she did as he was born in the era when the air was already destroyed beyond saving. And everyone needed air filters to breathe at all, but the air was always stale and had a dirty smell and taste to it even after filtering.
"Fly." Olga cast as Chloe copied her.
They quickly flew up into the midnight sky. Olga looked around at the stars and wasn't surprised that the stars were nothing like the ones that she knew back on earth, even a hundred years ago. The sky looked amazing, the stars looking like gems in the night sky. Looking around, Olga could see that it really was just grasslands as far as the eye could see, though her sharp Elven-eyes noticed the presence of some forests maybe ten miles away.
Looking at the great tomb, Olga could see that Mare and Aura were using magic alongside some of her personal army that could use magic to bury the tomb under the ground. There were also a few smaller groups that were adding real hills around the tomb to help it blend in. Olga could see that this place had no roads and just seemed to be an empty field in the middle of a forested area.
Part of Olga wondered if this place was prepared for them to arrive. On the left, there was a massive forest that went all the way to the mountains and another forest on the right giving a nice hidden area. The fact that the forests had such a large gap between them seemed to be strange. Why didn't they connect?
It was easy to see that the two forests hadn't ever been connected and people hadn´t just come and cut down the trees for a village due to there being no village nearby and it wasn't practical for them to transport the tree from here to another place when there was no roads or tracks. In the end, it didn't matter. Olga thought she was sure that if this were a set-up, then the forces of Nazarick would be able to destroy it, and if it was just a random magic phenomenon, then that was fine as well.
Olga looked before her as she felt someone else flying up and could see a man wearing full plate that caused Chloe to tense up, not recognising him, but Olga knew it was Momonga. Maybe it was the fact they were still part of the guild that gave her that sense? Something for Olga to think on.
"Momonga", Olga greeted.
"Olga. It's stunning up here," Momonga said as he looked around. Olga knew that Momonga had never seen anything like this other than pictures which just wasn't the same. Part of Olga wished that he wasn't an undead so that he would have the pleasure of eating and tasting real food too. Olga realised that he probably never had the chance to eat real meat, and now that he was an Overlord, he would never get the chance in this new life, which brought Olga's mood down.
"The stars all look like gemstones. Blue Planet would love to be able to see this," Momonga said.
"Given how much time he spent on the 6th floor getting the sky just right im sure he would love to see this", Olga said, looking back at the stars. Olga heard the flapping of wings and saw that Demiurge (looking like his demonic Frog/lizard self) was flying up with a pair of devil wings. Olga wondered if he wasn't able to use the spell fly. Thinking about it, she didn't even really know how Demiurge fought.
"To think one could see so far just by the light of the moon and the stars... it's hard to believe that this world is real. Blue Planet-san... this world is like a chest of jewels."
"Perhaps it is. I believe the beauty of this world exists to adorn you, Mo… Dark Warrior-san," Demiurge said in a respectful voice.
"Why is Demiurge pretending he doesn't know who you are?" Olga asked, confused. Who else other than one of the supreme beings would a floor guardian follow around like a lost puppy?
"I wanted to take a walk without anyone knowing, so I put on this armour", Momonga replied, not really explaining why he was pretending not to be Momonga. If he wanted to be alone, he could just tell Demiurge that he wanted to be alone.
"This is an unknown world. But are we the only ones who made it here? Did the other members of the guild come here too?" Momonga asked to change the subject.
"Hmm. I´m not sure it could just be limited to people in the great tomb. The only way to know is to explore the world. If there are other players here, they won't be able to stay secret for very long." Olga said after thinking about it for a few moments.
"Shame, if Hero-hero hadn't logged off, he would have come to this new world with us as well," Olga added.
"Yes, it's a shame he works a tough job and has no family left. I´m sure he would have loved this new world." Momonga agreed.
"Then again, he would have been a slime," Olga stated with a shudder.
"You don't like slimes?" Momonga asked.
"No, not when they look like slimes. It would be fine if he looked like Solution, a slime in human form. In fact, he is an Elder Black Ooze, the highest evolution of slime. I´m sure he has a human form," Olga said in an annoyed tone.
Looking down at Nazarick, they could see a wave of Earth, over two hundred meters across was moving the land as if it was the sea before the giant wave crashed against the walls of Nazarick, making Olga wince. She had thought that the process of hiding Nazarick would be much more delicate than just smashing a pile of dirt against the sides of the great tomb.
"Earth Surge." Olga heard Momonga mutter.
"That's Mare for you. It seems camouflaging the walls is an easy task for him." Momonga added a moment later.
"Indeed, Mare also borrowed some of the Dark elf mages I had in my castle to help. They are much lower level, but I´m sure they are making the work quicker than using golems." Olga stated pridefully while looking at her Soldiers.
"...Concealing the walls of Nazarick was a time-consuming task, to begin with. The only question is whether he will be discovered as he works. How is our perimeter security?" Momonga asked.
"Our early-warning net has already been constructed. We will know of the intrusion of any intelligent beings within five kilometres, and we will be able to observe them without their knowledge." Demiurge informed Momonga and Olga.
"If any enter the net, just abduct them and get all the information out of them before disposing of them," Olga ordered Demiurge.
"Yes, My Lady", Demiurge said with a bow.
"I am sure nothing will come near us looking where we are. I doubt people ever come here, or we would see signs like a village, a road or outpost, yet we have found nothing." Olga said to Momonga.
"What do you plan on doing next Momonga-sama, Olga-sama" Demiurge asked.
"Hmm, since Mare has done his task so splendidly, we can check in on him and give him a reward," Momonga said while giving a discrete look at Olga.
"Hmmm, I am not sure what we can give him, though I´m sure we have some items from Bukubukuchagama? I know we have her gear, but I doubt we should give that away." Olga said while thinking.
"I believe your thanks will be the finest reward he can receive, Momonga-sama... my deepest apologies, I suddenly remembered something I have to do. As for Mare..."
"It's fine, Demiurge", Olga and Momonga said.
"He's right. I´m sure just us saying we are proud, and he has done a good job would mean a ton to each of the floor guardians", Olga said, remembering how the floor guardians looked at them both.
"I am thinking of giving him a guild ring," Momonga said.
Olga felt the message feature connect between her and Momonga. "I am thinking of letting all the floor guardians a guild ring now they are real living people," Momonga said through the mental link.
"Hmm ya, that works. I will have to do the same with my Elites. We should see if we can find any personal items to give all the floor guardians as rewards as well. I know I have a dictionary from Peroroncino that we could give Shalltear." Olga said, knowing that personal items of their creators would mean probably everything to each of the guardians.
Both Momonga and Olga flew down near Mare with Momonga donning on his helmet as they landed. Mare noticing them, descending ran over to where they landed. The hem of Mare's skirt fluttered around his thighs as he ran towards them. For a moment, something peaked out from below before vanishing again. Olga was interested in looking under Mare's skirt. She was really curious what Bukubukuchagama made Mare wear under it.
Olga wasn't sure if Bukubukuchagama was a pervert as well, seeing as her younger brother was a pervert. Maybe it was in their family genes. Even if it was much much, much lower in Bukubukuchagama, she did voice act for hentai Olga thought to herself.
"O-Olga-sama, Momonga-sama, w-welcome ." Mare said nervously.
Olga let out a giggle at how cute Mare was, stuttering and being shy. "Mare, you don't need to be shy. You can even drop the formal language… though you should only do that when we are in private, of course," Olga said as she patted his head.
"I, I can't do that. How could I not speak respectfully to the Supreme Beings, especially the two Supreme Beings that stayed with us… And Nee-chan shouldn't be doing that either it's terribly rude…." Mare said passionately.
Olga thought that the dark elf twins were far too cute for them to be formal all the time, and she liked Aura being so carefree. She hoped that Chloe and Celestine were more carefree or she would order them to be carefree. Married life would be rather awkward otherwise.
"I see, Mare. Well, if you insist, then we are fine with it. However, we want you to know that we will not force you to do so." Momonga said.
"Y-yes! Al-although, may I ask why you came here, Olga-sama, Momonga-sama? Is there something wrong with how I´m hiding the great tomb?" Mare asked hesitantly.
"Of course not, Mare. We came here to praise you." Olga said softly.
The expression on Mare's face went from fear that he might be scolded to surprise, which made Olga want to cuddle him.
"Mare, your work is the most important at the moment. Even with all the extra security that we have put in place, we don't know of the inhabitants of this worlds strength. For all we know, they could be over level 100. If we are faced with opponents like that, then hiding The Great Tomb of Nazarick is the most vital thing." Momonga said as Mare nodded furiously in agreement.
"Which is why we wanted to let you know how satisfied we are in how you carried out your task," Olga told him.
Olga wasn't sure if the guardians could ever hate them as their entire backstory is to be loyal to them, but Olga didn't think it was worth testing things like that. Some praise and giving rewards for doing a good job would let them see how much they appreciate their hard work, and if they were given items that their actual creators had made, then the value of them would be immeasurable.
"You understand what I'm thinking, don't you, Mare?" Momonga said.
"Yes! Momonga-sama!" Mare said passionately, which was so out of character for Mare. It shocked Olga somewhat.
"Very good. Then, for your hard work, both Olga and I have thought what we would give you as a reward and have decided," Momonga said.
"How, how could I accept such a thing? I was simply doing my expected duty!" Mare said in a panicked voice.
"But Mare, we thought long and hard about your reward, and you have done lots of hard work. It's only natural that we would want to reward you for such an important job," Olga said.
"How, how could I accept such a thing? I was simply doing my duty!" Mare repeated while fidgeting.
"You deserve a reward for your good performance. It's only natural." Momonga tried again.
"It, it's not like that! We exist to give our all for the Supreme Beings, so working hard is only to be expected!" Mare said.
This back and forth went on for a while. In the end, Olga decided to step in so they could move on.
"Mare, it's rude not to take a reward. And in exchange for the reward, you can work even harder in the future." Olga proposed.
"Is, is that really alright?" Mare asked, looking unsure.
Momonga clearly decided to cut him short by producing the reward in question, a guild ring.
"Mo-Momonga-sama... you've taken the wrong thing out!"
"No, I"
"It can't be right! That's the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown, a treasure which only the Supreme Beings possess! I can't accept a reward like that." Mare said, even more, panicked and started to tremble at the idea of having a guild ring.
Mare was correct that the ring was intended for the guild members. Only 100 rings were made, and the guild only ever had 42 members leaving a total of 58 spare rings more than enough to give to each of the floor guardians and Olga's top castle guardians.
In order to put Mare's rampant imagination at ease, Momonga sternly said, "Calm down, Mare."
"I, I can't! How could I accept a valuable ring that only the Supreme Beings should possess," Mare said, still panicking.
"Mare enough," Olga said in a commanding and royal voice which seemed to work far better than when Momonga tried it. Maybe it was her racial class of Dark Elf Empress that made the difference. It gave her a huge Charisma boost.
"Mare. Teleportation is blocked in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and that generates all kinds of inconveniences." if Olga remembered right, teleportation was controlled by Aureole Omega, who was the only human NPC in the entire tomb and was in charge of assisting Victim on the 8th floor and was dressed as a Miko.
"We hope that during an enemy attack, the Guardians will command their respective Floors' forces. At the same time, it would be quite sad if a Guardian could not move around freely due to the teleportation block. Therefore, we are giving this ring to you."
Momonga raised the ring on his finger high. It glittered brilliantly in the moonlight.
"Don't worry, Mare. We will be giving the other floor guardians a ring at some point," Olga said, hoping it would help him accept the ring. Olga wondered if she should make a joke about Momonga wanting to marry but was sure that would make Mare fall into a panic again.
Mare nervously reached out his hand and slowly accepted the ring. As Mare put on the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown, it changed its dimensions to fit on Mare's much slender fingers. Mare was staring at the ring on his finger before sighing in relief.
"Olga-sama, Momonga-sama, th-thank you for this great gift... I promise that from today onward, I will work harder, so I do not disappoint you!" Mare said with resolution.
"Ah, excuse me, Momonga-sama... but why are you dressed like that?"
A good question, Mare and one I can't work out, Olga thought.
"Ah, about that..." Momonga said before another voice joined them.
"That's simple, Mare." the gentle and sexy voice said.
Olga looked back, and her eyes were drawn to a woman who seemed to be the embodiment of all feminine beauty that stood beneath the moonlight.
The bluish-white radiance played across her body, which sparkled in response. It was as though a goddess had descended from the heavens to grace the earth. Her black glossy wings flapped, creating a gust of wind.
It was Albedo. Although Demiurge was behind her, Albedo's beauty was so breathtaking that it was easy to overlook his presence.
"Momonga-sama wore this armour and concealed his identity because he did not wish to disturb the others at work." Albedo said as if it made perfect sense. Which just confused Olga even more. Surely a armoured person that no one knows would cause people to stop working and try to work out who it was, wouldn't it? Olga thought.
"As, as expected of you, Albedo, you understood my true intentions," Momonga said, nodding at what Albedo said.
"So, so that's why..." Mare said, with a look of realisation on his face.
Olga rolled her eyes and decided it was better just to ignore the entire situation.
Olga watched as Albedo's eyes had suddenly gone wide open, to the point where it seemed like her eyeballs might fall out. She was pointing at Mare in a strange way.
"What's wrong, Albedo?" Olga asked.
"Ah, no, nothing…." Albedo said unconvincingly.
"Speaking of which, why did you come here, Albedo?" Momonga asked.
"I heard Demiurge say you would both be here, so I wished to greet you, Olga-sama, Momonga- sama. However, I apologise for making you see me in this filthy state." Albedo said, brushing her clothes.
Olga couldn´t tell what she meant by filthy. Sure there was some dust on her dress, but that was easy to brush off.
"I need to head back to the castle and see what everyone is doing. Demiurge, Albedo, I will be appointing someone from the castle to each of you so that you have assistance. There is also my small dark elf army of around five thousand strong that can be used in defence of Nazarick and my castle guardians, with some of them being level 100." Olga said.
"Thank you, Olga-sama", Demiurge and Albedo said, bowing. Seeing this, Olga activated the teleportation effect of the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.
Olga was teleported to the entrance of her castle, where she entered the courtyard, and she walked toward the army barracks before entering the command building and there in the office was her.
The NPC that she had made to control the Elf Army was the level 75 Homunculus Tanya von Degurechaff from one of her favourite anime. She was an amazing army commander, and Olga couldn't think of anyone else she would pick for the role.
"Tanya, I want you to go to Demiurge and work alongside him to plan out on how to combat any threats against Nazarick," Olga ordered.
Tanya stood to attention. "Yes, my Lady", shouted Tanya as she saluted.
"He is either on the 8th floor or outside with Mare," Olga said. She left the office and walked back to her room. Olga spent the next few hours going through her inventory and having the maids move stuff that she didn't need to carry with her to the treasury, such as all the data crystals and Prismatic Ores.
Olga kept the things like potions and magic scrolls on her just in case she needed them. Oddly enough, Olga knew that Momonga carried around a ton of potions that couldn't even heal him due to him being an undead. She guessed that he kept them in case someone else in the guild ran out.
Olga felt a mental connection being established with her.
"Momonga?"
"Can you come to the throne room im trying to get the mirror of remote viewing working. We may be able to see more of the world around us."
Olga was shocked that such a common item could be so helpful. After all, in the game, simple tier 5 spells would stop the mirror from working, so people used them to look at towns to decide if it was worth to go shopping.
"Ya, on my way im bringing Chloe with me," Olga said as she cut the connection.
"Chloe, we are going to the Nazarick throne room," Olga said as she activated the teleportation of the guild ring.
Olga and Chloe arrived to see Momonga sitting on a chair as he was looking at a mirror before him that was roughly a one-meter wide oval. Olga made her way next to him as Chloe went to stand next to Sebas off to the side. Olga stood next to Momonga and looked into the mirror that didn't show their reflection but was currently showing a patch of grass.
Momonga swiped his hand, and the mirrors image changed but still didn't show anything that gave signs of life other than a few animals like birds. Olga wondered if this world had no intelligent life. Maybe Nazarick was all there was other than animals.
Momonga kept making gestures to alter the image in the mirror as Olga paid attention to everything that they could see, hoping to spot some form of intelligent life. Momonga casually waved his hand, and the vision range suddenly expanded on the mirror.
Finally, an image of something like a village appeared in the mirror.
"Looks like we are getting somewhere," Olga said, seeing the village.
"Yes, it looks to be roughly ten kilometres south of Nazarick," Momonga said.
The village was near a forest and had wheat fields surrounding it. The village looked to be a rustic farming village and didn't look to be a very developed one.
Momonga zoomed in on the village, and Olga could tell something was off.
"Are they holding a festival?" Momonga asked.
"No, they all look panicked, and they are running away from people in plate armour. I would say they are being raided, but I doubt it is bandits given how they look like knights." Olga said as Sebas had a face of disgust looking at the scene.
Momonga enlarged the image. Fully armoured knights were swinging their longswords at the villagers dressed in rough clothes.
It was a massacre. A villager fell with every swing of a knights sword. The villagers were no match to a trained knight, and most were just running away and weren't even trying to fight back.
While watching them being killed, Olga didn't feel anything and wondered if it was due to becoming Olga instead of Harry. Olga only cared about her people and the people that were precious to them, and this village had none of her people in it or people that she cared for. She was instead thinking of how best to use this situation.
If they saved them, they would be indebted to them. In being indebted to them, they would be able to ask for things like information of the land around them and the power structure. They could also find out how much things like gold and silver are worth in this new world.
"We should help them," Olga said to Momonga.
"There is no reason, value or benefit in rescuing them," Momonga replied.
"Yes, there is. We can get information from them and maybe a world map that will give us a better overview of where we are in this world. They can tell us where a big town is so we can gather more information." Olga said.
"We don't know how strong they are?" Momonga said back.
"We are both level 100, and Chloe is level 100, and if we bring Albedo, that is a total of four level 100's. There is no way that those knights are anywhere near level 100, or they wouldn't need so many to kill simple villagers," Olga said, rolling her eyes.
"Sebas, put Nazarick on maximum alert. Me, Olga and Chloe will go first, and you will tell Albedo, who is standing by next door, to follow us after fully equipping herself. However, I forbid her to bring Ginnungagap. After that, prepare support units. Something might happen which results in our inability to retreat. Therefore the units sent to the village should be adept at stealth or have the ability to go invisible." Momonga ordered as he stood up.
"I understand, but I wish to request the task of defending your body to be given to me." Sebas requested.
"Then who will relay my orders? These knights are currently sacking the village, which means there might be knights near Nazarick who might attack us. Therefore, you must stay. With Olga and Chloe and Albedo coming, I´m sure nothing will be able to be a real threat to us." Momonga said.
The image changed, and now it showed a girl sending a knight flying with a punch. The girl was leading an even younger girl as they ran away. They were probably sisters.
"Let's go. I doubt the two girls have long before they are caught and killed if they are lucky." Olga said. (Olga was very much aware of how women tended to be treated in medieval societies.)
Just as the girl planned to flee, she was slashed in the back. Since time was tight, Momonga swiftly incanted the spell.
"[Gate]."
Gate was a 9th tier teleportation spell. It had no limit on the distance that it could go and had a 0% chance of backfiring or going to the wrong location.
The scene before them changed in an instant.
Olga wasn't surprised that the opposition had not used teleport-blocking spells. If they hadn't bothered to use Anti-Information Magic Wall, a 3rd tier basic anti-scarying spell, then they wouldn't block teleportation.
The scene before the eyes was the same of what she had seen earlier.
Two terrified girls were in front of them.
The one who looked like the elder sister had a braid of straw-blonde hair that reached down to her breasts. Her skin, healthily tanned from working in the sun, was now deathly pale from fear, and her dark eyes were wet with tears. The little sister, the younger girl, buried her face in her sister's waist, trembling in fright.
Olga looked at the knight standing before the two girls with malice.
Olga guessed they were shocked by their sudden appearance and the fact that one of them was an undead. As they both had seemed to have forgotten how to swing the swords they were holding.
Olga reached her hand forward.
"[Thunderlance]" Olga said in a cold voice that sent a shiver down the spines of the humans.
A bright yellow lance of lightning burst from Olga's hand and in an instant impaled the knight through his armour, and the knight let out a blood-curdling scream of pain and his body spasmed on the floor before he gasped his last breath.
Olga looked at the other Knight, who was shaking in fear, and when he noticed Olga looking at him, he turned to run away.
Olga cast a tier 1 spell, "[Hold]", that bound him where he was stood, making him unable to run away.
"Chloe, break his arms and legs", Olga ordered as she turned to Momonga.
"They are so weak they died from a 2nd tier spell, and that was without Maximize Magic or Boost Magic. Ogla said.
"They may just be weak, and that is why they went after the two girls," Momong said as he looked down at the two girls.
Olga watched as Momonga walked over to the dead body of the knight she killed.
"[Create Mid-Tier Undead, Death Knight]."
A black ooze dripped from Momonga's hand and covered the body. The ooze slowly expanded and melded with the knight's body. After that, the knight wobbled before slowly rising to its feet like a zombie.
"Eeeeek!" the two girls shrieked, seeing what was happening to the dead body.
With a wet, slopping sound, several rills of black ichor oozed out from between the gaps in the knight's helmet. It must have come from the knight's mouth. The black fluid flowed out without end until it covered the knight's entire body. It looked like a human being that a slime had swallowed. Surrounded by the black liquid, the knight's body began to twist and change. After several seconds, the black liquid fell off the body of what was now a Death Knight.
The Death Knight was roughly 2.3 meters tall. In its left hand was a large tower shield that covered three-quarters of its body and in the right hand was a wavey-bladed flamberge that was covered in a dreadful red-black aura that was pulsing like a heartbeat.
"Exterminate all the knights who are attacking this village," Momonga ordered the Death Knight.
"OOOOOOOAAAAHHHHHHH!" it roared.
So mighty was its cry that it shook the air, and it was so filled with bloodlust that everyone who heard it broke out in goosebumps other than Momonga, Olga and Chloe. The two sisters were shivering from the roar alone. The Death Knight turned toward the village before running of as fast as lightning.
"It ran off... to think a shield would abandon the person it was supposed to protect. Then again, I did tell it to do so." Momonga mumbled.
"Well, you shouldn't have ordered it to kill all the knights then, Momonga," Olga said, rolling her eyes at him.
Olga turned to the knight that had his arms and legs broken.
"Unlucky for you," Olga said to the knight with a cold-frighting smile that promised a dark future for the knight.
"I-I will never t-talk", The Knight stuttered out, which made Olga and Chloe let out a dark laugh.
"They all say that at the start and end up begging within the first hour," Chloe said darkly.
"Chloe send him back to be interrogated and then return", Olga ordered.
Just as she gave Chloe that order, a humanoid shape came through the still-open Gate as Chloe walked back through the gate.
A person clad in a suit of full-body black plate armour stood before Momonga and Olga. The suit of armour looked like a demon and was covered in spikes and did not expose the slightest bit of flesh, unlike most armour that games had for females. Its clawed gauntlets grasped a black kite shield in one hand and a bardiche that radiated a sickly green glow in the other. A blood-red cape blew in the wind.
"The preparations took some time. I apologise for my late arrival," Albedo's melodic voice spoke from beneath the horned helmet.
Nazarick had three level 100 warriors, and Olga had two level 100 warriors in her castle, but they were designed for pure damage, unlike albedo, who had most of her levels in the Dark Knight class, making her have the most substantial defensive ability of all the NPC's in Nazarick.
"No, it's fine. You came just in time." Momonga reassured Albedo.
"Thank you. Then how shall we dispose of these inferior beings? Momonga-sama, Olga-sama."
"What did Sebas tell you?" Momonga asked Albedo.
Albedo had no answer.
"Albedo, we are here saving the humans. It is our intention to save this village. The enemies are the knights in the armour. Feel free to kill them as you like," Olga said, looking back at the two sisters who were still shaking.
The two girls shrank under Olga´s gaze and tried their best to make themselves as small as possible as they trembled.
Olga took a step towards them that made them try and scramble away from her.
"You are hurt, and a wound like that could be fatal", Olga said in a soft melodic voice. Olga opened her inventory and grabbed a minor healing potion.
"Here, drink this", Olga said, offering the potion to the elder sister.
The elder sister's face was pale with terror as she replied shakily: "I, I'll drink it! Just, please, spare my little sister…."
"Nee-chan." the little girl said while weeping and trying to stop her elder sister from drinking the potion.
"Olga-sama offered you a healing potion out of the kindness of her heart, and you dear refuse her kindness" A cold voice came from Albedo, who seemed to be shaking in rage.
"Albedo, it's fine. She is just scared." Olga said, trying to calm down the situation.
However, Albedo was still radiating murderous intent, to the point where the two girls were gritting their teeth in fear.
"It's a healing potion. It's harmless hurry up and drink it." Olga said and offered the potion to the elder sister again. Who took it and drank it. Olga wasn't sure if it was the murderous intent or Olga´s reassurance that convinced her to drink the potion but didn't think it really mattered.
The elder sister's eyes went wide, and she gulped the potion down. After that, a look of surprise filled her face.
