After the defeat suffered by the residents due to the attack by the Sorcerer Kingdom. Now Brain Unglaus who had almost been killed several times, was now saved by a mysterious figure who appeared before him when he was on the verge of death.

Brain's POV

"huh..?"

in front of me a person appears wearing full armor he kills the Golem in the blink of an eye

"W-who are you?"

"rise warrior, if you want to live fight even though life is at stake!"

I started to stand up and gripped my sword tightly

"they come again"

Then a swarm of Golems appeared from the direction of my entrance earlier

"Ah ... damn there are too many of them how do we handle it?"

"Don't worry, they are illusions among the many Death Knights, only one of them is real. If we can defeat him, then all the illusionary Death Knights will disappear."

"Huh.. Death Knights? I thought they were Golems, and what illusions?, how do I find the real ones?"

"You divert the attention of all the Death Knights so that they point at you"

"I will focus on finding the real one"

"... well, it's up to you"

somehow I felt a very strong Aura from him whether it was a coincidence or not but I felt the same Aura when I met the Sorcerer King, this Aura is... An aura that only strong people have

without realizing it I've refocused on myself and ignored the despair I was experiencing just a moment before

"hey you Death Knights come here"

I made a fuss by making loud noises by destroying the things around me until the Death Knights were aiming at me

"Now is the time, I leave it to you!"

"Thank you.. I've found the real Death Knight, and now..."

that person with his sword and shield then was about to attack

"...Phantom Slash"

"hahhh!!"

That person did a series of slashes that could hit all the Death Knights in quick succession and then...

slashes*

he hit the Death Knight in the back, he moved so fast his movements seemed to emit a bright white light

suddenly the other Death Knights disappeared like they were sucked in by something and just vanished

(How Amazing he's really strong, he beat a large number of Death Knights just like that)

that person suddenly took something from where the Death Knight had disappeared and crushed it. it seems it was a magic item that created this illusion

"From now on, he will know i'm here too"

"Hah...?, this is a lie right?"

"what is it?"

"You can defeat all those creatures in the blink of an eye.. it's unbelievable, who are you actually?"

I can hardly believe what I've seen, he has defeated the Death Knights in the blink of an eye even me and my comrades are having a hard time dealing with even one.

"I..., call me Shiro"

"Shiro?, I've never heard of that name before"

"hahh right!.. Ally have you seen her?"

"who?"

"Ally, the girl who is the granddaughter of the village owner here"

"Oh her, I found her hiding in a closet in the cabin"

"So... she's still alive!?, thank God... thank God I'm so relieved"

I was so relieved to know she was still alive I shed tears

"Ally come out now it's safe"

Shiro shouted for Ally until a few moments later Ally appeared from the forest

"Ally! you're alive"

I ran to her and hug her with relief.. but she just kept silent

"I think she's traumatized by what happened to her."

"Brain..."

"Ally. it's okay you're safe now"

I hugged Ally tightly while crying

"Brain.. everyone has died, they were killed by those creatures, I wanted to save them.. but they told me to hide, I couldn't do anything and ended up only thinking about my own safety"

".. it's okay.. it's not your fault Ally"

"What are you going to do from now on?"

I suddenly remembered Gon who was still fighting in the village alone

"ah Gon! he's still in the village, sir can you please help me save him"

"Don't be rash. They could see you"

"I don't care anymore, I won't leave him alone like that"

"Ally wait here, I will go there"

"... "

"Don't be rash, didn't I tell you. And also you won't be able to beat them alone"

I immediately ran ignoring his words just like that

"Gon, I hope I still have time"

I ran as fast as I could until I finally saw the village

but, remembering his words, I stopped for a moment near the forest tree and look at the village

looking heavy in my eyes, the bodies of Gon and the rest of my friends lay in a pathetic condition. There seems to be Death Knights everywhere around the Village

"I... "

pukk*

Shiro grab my shoulder and stop me

"what are you doing! I have to help them"

"I understand your feelings Brain, friends are precious things that we can't just leave them alone especially if they're in trouble, I also really want to help them but, if we keep insisting on going there then he will see us, if that happens he will will bring out his soldiers to kill us"

"Shiro.. well, I understand..."

"By the way what exactly are you doing here don't you know that there is a war here?"

"For now we have to get out of here first"

then we left here leaving my friends who had lost their lives, a few hours passed, we continued to walk north until it was night time we decided to rest and make a bonfire that night

"How is Ally, is she asleep?"

"Well, she seems quite shocked by what happened today, especially what has happened to her grandfather. She is indeed a strong girl."

"Oh, I see"

Shiro and I sat on a log and faced each other around the bonfire. I then thought of my unanswered question

"Shiro.."

"what's wrong brain"

"Please tell me what you were doing in the forest at that time, did you really know the war that was happening at the village at that time?

"Ah, right. I do know. I've always been watching and observing what that person is doing."

"what do you mean that person? is it the same person as he that you mean before?"

"yes it is, he is the one who has caused the current chaos"

"d.. do you mean the sorcerer king!?"

"Correct.."

"Huh!. what.. do you know about that Being?"

after I asked my question Shiro was silent for a moment staring at the bonfire. he seems to be thinking about something

"we used to be close friends, we used to spend time together all day and every day. he really cares about his friends"

"Huh?...is he really the Sorcerer King?"

"..., yes. We used to be a large Guild that was famous throughout the world, we were the strongest Guild that ever existed, you could say we were a group of the strongest people who gathered and formed a Guild. Until that happened, we were forced to to leave this place, to be more precise, this world for some reason, we started leaving this world one by one until finally he was the only one left. It was possible that he violated and simply ignored the order, it seems that he passed the time that the order was given until finally he couldn't left this world and ended up just stuck. To be honest. I didn't expect him to do such a heinous thing in this world, he killed innocent people to prove that he's the strongest, I really didn't expect that."

"So you are a creature that came from another world?"

"you can say that."

"that means you all are must be the next gods"

"Gods, it seems that this time is different. The Gods who was supposed to help but instead destroys you. Maybe we are more accurately called the Devil"

"Devil...maybe right"

"Then you're not human either. Am I right?"

"that is correct, but you know.. i was also a human in our world so does they"

"Hmm... I see so, you and the sorcerer king is used to be humans too, there's something else I want to ask. If you weren't trapped in this world like him why are you here right now?"

"..., compared to him, I appeared in this world more lately. maybe a few weeks later after him. I also didn't appear where I last left this world. I woke up in a vast green plain and alone. then i went to the nearest town, and gathered the information that was available, and knowing what he had done in the gatze plains, then I decided to stay hidden and observe his movements, seeing what he had done it seemed he was driven by something to do it, I couldn't frankly speaking to him just like that. he has what our Guild has, Nazarick, all of its inhabitants have and complete power over it. if he refuses my request then he can destroy me on the spot"

"Then why did you decide to help us if you were hiding?"

"There was someone who met me at night. He was someone I knew, he said that the Sorcerer King has now lost his identity as a human and wants to rule the whole world. Hearing that I was very frustrated and wanted to stop him, in the end I decided to move"

"I see.. thank you very much for answering my question, now I understand what really happened... is it okay for you to tell me all these things?"

"I saw the strong self-confidence in your eyes that just shattered after everyone you knew died because of him, I just felt like I had to say what I had to say"

"Shiro, are you really going to fight your own comrades?"

"aa.. I will stop him, he is my comrade I should stop him from the path he is currently on."

"Since you were his comrade, somehow I believe you can beat him, I feel the Aura of power that you possess. And that Aura feels as strong as that of the Sorcerer King has"

"Maybe, you need to sleep now, tomorrow morning we will separate."

After learning what really happened I was truly furious with the Sorcerer King figure but also felt hopeful at the same time. maybe he is the one who can stop this nightmare of mine. then I decided to sleep at that time

the next day in the morning

I saw the figure of Shiro looking at the morning sun while sitting on a rock

"Good morning Shiro, Ally"

"Did you sleep well Brain?"

"Yeah that's how it is, are you not sleeping Shiro?"

"..."

"ahh right..sorry"

"Then this is our farewell. Keep on living and take care of that girl"

I immediately stood up and walked over to him

"Shiro! I've been thinking about this all night, please take me with you! I want to fight with you"

"I expected you to say that, but I can't let you come with me"

"but.."

"Brain, Take care of her, that girl now has nothing, you must take care of her, I have my own path that I will go, and this will be very dangerous for you"

(tch.. I see, I'm weak compared to you)

"Is it because I'm weak?"

"No, but because I believe you can take care of her. If I allow you to come with me what will happen to her. If she comes too I can't guarantee his safety, therefore I tell you to take good care of her"

"Okay.., looks like I can't beg to you. I'll take care of her like my own life!"

"That's right! That's what a warrior must do. Protect what he has and fight for what he believe"

Then Ally woke up from her sleep

"Hah!!!!"

Ally screamed hysterically. looks like she's still traumatized by what happened yesterday

"Ally..!"

I then approached her. and calm her down

"Take care of her, Brain.. then this is a farewell, I'll transfer you to a nearby town via teleportation magic, see you again somewhere."

"Then Ally and I suddenly entered the teleportation gate and were outside a town"

I hug Ally tightly

(hope we meet again Shiro please avenge me and my friends)

Shiro's POV

"Alright... Teleportation"

I Teleported to a place in a house

"Alright we will keep moving… Sebas"

"According to Your Command. Touch Me Sama"

Ainz's POV

in the throne room in Nazarick

"How is the Attack, Cocytus?"

"The attack went smoothly according to the strategy I made"

"However..."
