Elf land is the country of elfs, that borders the extreme religious nation Slane Theocracy. Elf land and Theocracy are constantly at war with each other for a decade due to an incident that happened more than a century ago. The war happened due to the ego of the Elf king and the Theocracy and is still going on because they do not know how to stop.
Elf king Sigurd Azouf just received a letter of invitation from Argland Council States regarding a peace summit. The summit is first of its kind as the attendees are Council State, Slane Theocracy, Dragon Kingdom and the Beast-men country near Dragon Kingdom. The contents of the letter are quite concerning. Someone called Sorcerer King is trying to take over the world and the meeting is held to find the solution to this problem. Sigurd found it quite hilarious that Dragons are conducting this meeting and finding a solution peacefully. Maybe Greed Kings taught them something after all.
The letter also states that most of the countries have fallen to the Sorcerer Kingdom. Baharuth Empire is their vassal, they destroyed the Re-Estize King, they have good business relationships with dwarves and most importantly they have nearly divided the Roble Holy Kingdom, one part of which preaches Sorcerer King as God.
As the Elf King was reading the letter, the half naked female elf in his room was moaning in pain and another one was crying because she was bleeding. Apparently the Elf king does not like it when you wake him up in the morning just to read some letter. Sigurd was not sure if he was going to attend the meeting. He did not want to put effort in meeting the people from Theocracy or saving the people of Elf land. The people in his kingdom were all useless for his standard and he has not been able to get a powerful child from all the women he had tried with. Maybe I should go outside and see if I can find someone powerful. Sigurd thought if he can find powerful women, then the trip may be worthwhile. Eventually he decided to go as he had been held up in his kingdom for a long time. After throwing the letter away, he gets to his usual morning chores.
Dragon Kingdom, Queen's Chambers
Draudillion was very happy today. She made a deal with Sorcerer Kingdom, to save her kingdom and she did not have to lose her chastity in the process. The only thing that she was worried about is the fact that she had betrayed the DragonLord of the council states for her own benefit, but no one could blame her for that, she had to protect her country, this is the right thing to do.
According to the deal, Sorcerer King would send the Demon Maids that he has recently acquired, which according to him are completely under his control. The Sorcerer King would help out if things went out of hand but that was highly unlikely. This all will be done with discretion and no one would have to know because Dragon Kingdom cannot be seen taking help from the person who has the whole world is rallying against him.
Another part of the deal was to make the Dragon Kingdom financially stable so that when time comes, it will be absorbed into Sorcerer Kingdom. If the things went according to what they have discussed, she would be released of her duties as queen in no time and her subject would be able to live, although at the mercy of an undead. Draudillion could not help but laugh at the irony that her life is going through, betraying Dragons and Humans to become the subject of an undead and hope for survival. But that's the survival in this harsh world.
The Great Tomb of Nazarick - Tenth Floor, Throne Room
{POV AINZ}
In the throne room of Nazarick, generally there are Floor Guardian and Pleiades and sometimes there were Area Guardian such as Pandora's actor and Pestonia. But today a new Area Guardian was there, the former Golden Princess of Re-Estize Kingdom, princess Renner. During the recent quest, Ainz has acquired the said guardian, is it good or bad, he does not know but since Albedo and Demiurges trust her, she would be alright.
The meeting was being held to discuss the new topic they recently heard about; The alliance of the countries against Ainz and his country. Draudillion would not lie about the alliance because she was desperate enough to not risk making an enemy out of Sorcerer Kingdom. According to what she has told Ainz, Council States, Slane Theocracy, Elf Land would be there. The only remaining countries were the City-State alliance and Beast-men Kingdom and Ainz was sure that Platinum Dragon Lord would convince these countries. Ainz's only concern was the World Class Items.
When Pandora's Actor fought the armour of 'Raku', he was sure about one thing, that thing was not made of normal making he knew. It was something else. Plus from the new intel from Dragon Queen, Ainz knew about the existence of something called Wild Magic.
Why would dragons use different magic or rather, according to the loli, if only Wild Magic existed in the past, then how was the tier magic introduced? There is a WCI that changes the laws of nature but who would have WCI in this world. Hmm, the 6 gods of theocracy were Players and the 8 greed kings were players too. That is the only logical theory I can come up with.
Ainz was not sure if he should talk about this in front of the new Area Guardian but now that she is a part of Nazarick, he should trust her.
{POV Renner}
Renner was in the Throne Room for the first time and she was so shocked, she felt like she was in the castle of Mao. Ainz Ooal Gown has everything, he can level the entire country himself but he doesn't even lift a finger. Was he playing with humans? Renner had no way of knowing but she was sure of one thing, if she wanted to cross the Sorcerer King, then she would die for sure.
The problem is not the might of the undead, he was so intelligent and had absolute dominance over everyone in this castle. The 'castle' was deep underground and so secure that not even god himself could reach the Sorcerer King. Renner understood everything about Sorcerer King during her previous debacle, but she was unsure of one thing, why would these demons keep their end of bargain and allow Renner to live here and not just cast aside like the rest of humans.
When Renner made the deal with Demiurges, she grossly underestimated their might and their intelligence, but all is well now that she finally got what she wanted. When she was thinking all of this, she heard a voice,
"So, what should we do about this, Ainz-sama"- Albedo
"Surely, you must have thought of a plan that is far beyond our reach, Ainz-sama" - Demiurges
"Ye.. Yeah Demiurges, the first thing we should know is the number of WCI and their uses that alliance could have. We are sure about the one used of Shalltear [Downfall of castle and country ]" - Ainz
Renner was at loss of words, what were they talking about, some kind of item that is very powerful that even these demons fear. I should know more about it.
"But Ainz-sama, to use [Downfall of castle and country], you need to have specific affinity and you need to be at least level 50. " - Albedo
"Yeah, but Dragon Lord can use it as they have different magic from us and maybe they have something that let's them bypass level requirements." - Ainz
"Nevertheless, in YGGDRASIL there was a guild that had 3 WCI and one had 2 WCI, if we are highly unlucky and 6 gods and greed kings were the said guilds, then we are up against 5 WCI. If we are lucky, then we are up against 2 WCI. It is still good. But we need to find out what are the names and uses of other WCIs. " - Ainz
"PDL knows that we have one WCI. " - Pandora's Actor
"Pandora's Actor, don't talk about that here." - Albedo
PA bowed to a sorry in front of Ainz, but Renner knew why Albedo stopped this weird face demon from saying anything, it was because she did not want Renner to know about the most important things.
When the trivial things were said and done with, the meeting was over and Renner would go back to her Climb-kun. The one person she loved so much that she gave up everything for. Maybe that is why these demons kept their end of the deal, because they knew they have the greatest weakness of Renner and they can exploit it whenever they want. But she was ready to do everything for Climb, even if it meant doing the bidding of demons.
