Sorry for the shorter chapter, most of the time they will be longer, but don't expect them to take this long. They will be longer but take more time normally. Also I will be skipping over some stuff, like how no one is allowed on the eighth floor
Edit: made change to dialogue between Shalltear and Albedo. Thank you Kuroyuki-kokuyoku for pointing it out. And yes I did just copy-paste some dialongue, not a lot but some
The Supreme Beings sank into the chars of the conference room exhausted after what felt like hours of trying to maintain an appearance that they knew they couldn't keep up forever
"Why do they have to have so high expectations?" Momonga thought out loud
"Well we are their creators." Tabula pointed out
"Still it's like they think we're some kind of god. I don't think I can keep up with this much longer." Bukubukuchagma replied
The others could only nod their heads in agreement, that small amount of time had taken most of their energy just to not brake character
"How did you stay so calm?" Ulbert asked looking at Momonga
"I'm not sure, whenever I had any strong emotions it was like they were repressed in some way. My guess is that it has something to do with the undead's immunity to mind-affecting attacks."
"That sounds useful."
"It is, but this body also has its disadvantages."
"Well for now their are still somethings that we have to discuss." Yamaiko said
"Like what? Can't we just have the NPC's do everything?" Peroronchio asked
"Don't you remember anything of the old world? We have to do theses things ourselves."
"Fine what is the first thing?"
"You!" Bukubukuchagama said
"What did I do?"
"Don't try to act innocent, we all saw how you looked at Albedo and the maids, not to mention Shalltear."
"You must take me for some kind of degenerate, I am a respectable member of society."
"YOU ARE A DEGENERATE!"
"That's enough you two, but she does have a point you know, we can't just let to go wild." Touch Me said
"Well what do the rest of you think?" Momonga asked
"I think Shalltear's fine, but for the others you'd be tainting our friends creations" Tabula replied
"I'm not letting him touch any of them." Bukubukuchagama said firmly
"Im with Chagama on this one." Yamaiko replied
"I'm staying out of this one." Ulbert said
"Same here." Takemikazuchi said
"Im going with Chagama and Yamaiko, it's just wrong" Touch Me said
"Well then it's 2:3:3, sorry man." Momonga said
"Sure you are."
"Then on to the next problem. Right now we are using up a lot of items that we don't know if we can get back in this world. We will need to find a way to ever make them renewable by our selfs or reduce how much we use." Yamaiko said
"Well for simple ones like paper or food we just need to set up farms to produce them, but for things like ores or gold we will need to reduce our consumption until we can find a way to get more." Tabula said "for that I would like to recommend myself, I know a good amount of chemistry and how Nazarick works."
"Then is anyone against that?" Momonga asked
No one said anything
"Good, what's next."
Yamaiko replied "Well a few quick ones are, we need someone to investigate how our abilities have changed from YGGDRASIL"
Takemikazuchi spoke up "I can do that, I have a good knowledge of how many of the the games mechanics work, but I think that Yamaiko will be helpful with testing out many of the spells."
"I'm good with that but otherwise, we need someone to investigate how the change from game to reality has affected the NPCs and their working conditions"
Touch Me spoke up "I think that me and Chagama will be best. If things go wrong we're the best equipped to handle it, and, to put it bluntly, I dont really trust some one like Ulbert with this. You ok with that?"
"Sure."
"We need someone to investigate what's going on outside the tomb"
Paroncheno spoke up "I'm not the best at recon but I'm still really good at it. With the help of Ulbert and his demons I think we could make a vary good intelligence circle."
"That's good with me."
"And finally we need someone to be able to handle the general administration in the tomb."
Everyone's heads turned to look at Momonga. They all knew that "handling the general administration" was just a fancy way to say paperwork, but everyone else already had a job
"S-sorry."
"It's- it's alright, I'm probably the best for this with my undead body anyway so it all works out" he said trying to his resentment at having to do paperwork even in another world
'Why me?'
The Guardians spent a while kneeling in awe at the power that they had seen the Supreme Beings exert, until Albedo finally managed to stand
"As expected of Momonga-sama, to think his presence would have such a great effect on us Floor Guardians…"
"It is only to be expected of the Supreme Beings." Demiurge replied
Albedo seemed to twitch slightly when Demiurge said 'Supreme Beings'
"The. Supreme. Beings. Might. Is. Truly. Unmatched."
"They weren't like that with us, they were super nice and even offered us water."
"That must be what they are like when they are showing their authority." Demiurge reasoned
"Well I must take my leave, it would be rude of me to not be by their side when they need me." Sebas said excusing himself
But as he left they noticed that Shalltear had not moved and was still on the ground shaking slightly
"Shalltear? Are you alright?" Demiurge asked
"Is. Something. Wrong?"
She lifted her head but seemed dazed like out of a dream
"I'm fine, but it appears that after seeing our lord's presence my underwear has gone through a bit of a crisis."
...
"You slut!"
"What? We just got a full blast of our masters aura as a reward. A girl who doesn't get wet from that must have something wrong with her!"
"You lamprey!"
The round of verbal jabs continued until the two girls looked like their were about to tear into each other
"Ah well Aura, matters between women should be settled by a fellow woman. If anything happens I'll come to help, let me know when the time comes, all right?" Demiurge said
"Hey, wait! Are you planning to dump all of this on me?"
Ignoring her Demiurge simply waved and walked away from the cat fight that was about to ensue, quickly followed by Mare and Cocytus not wishing to get involved
"W-what was Shalltear t-talking abut?"
For a moment Demiurge thought of corrupting Mares mind with knowledge that he should not be given but thought against it
"You'll learn when your older, but I for one would be interested in the result."
"Wha-what do you mean by that?"
"I mean the increase on our fighting potential. All good rulers need an heir, the Supreme Beings have come back but if they were to lose interest and go away again then we will need a successor to pledge our loyalty to."
"What. Kind. Of. Blaspheme. Are. You. Talking. About?"
"Think of it, wouldn't you like to swear your loyalty to the Supreme Being children?"
"Hm... Of. Course. I. Would. Like. To. Swear. My. Allegiance. To. The. Supreme. Beings. Children…"
Cocytus imagined himself with their sons and daughters, running, playing, teaching them swordsmanship, even them growing older
"...Oh. What. A. Wonderful. Sight… Uncle… Uncle…"
Demiurge adverted his eyes from the cheerful guardian, fantasizing everything that would happen, and instead turned to Mare
"Ah, Mare I've been wondering, why are you dressed as a girl?"
Mare looked somewhat embarrassed and tried to use his skirt to hide his legs, only for it to barely do anything
"L-lady Bukubukuchagama did it. She said I-it was called a 'trap' so I don't think it has to d-do with my gender."
"Hm well is that so? Maybe all boys should be dressed like that. Well I will have to ask the Supreme Beings about it. Cocytus its time to wake up."
"What. A. Wonderful. Sight... Truly. Everything. I. Could. Have. Ever. Wanted."
"Well that's good then. Albedo, Shalltear it's time to get it work?"
A perturbed Albedo and Shalltear turned towards him
"Hm, fine. For now I think that we have discussed this enough for now."
"Agreed. We will need to complete the jobs that our rulers have given us."
As Albedo regained her dignity the others line up to reserve her orders
"Firstly-"
Hope you like my story so far. let me know if I made any mistakes, I want to improve.
