Overlord: Cain of Ainz Ooal Gown
I don't own Overlord
Suzuki stared blinking owlishly at the NPCs in front of him with his jaw hanging free as Albedo with her head raised to look at him before she repeated the question "My Lord?"
Suzuki put his jaw back into place and spoke "My…the GM call function isn't working."
Albedo tilted her head and replied "I am deeply sorry my dear Lord Cain but I don't know of this GM call magic of which you speak."
Suzuki was about to speak again but a small child like voice spoke up "Sister Albedo what has Lord Cain asked of you?" Suzuki found himself looking behind Albedo to look for the source of the voice and found one Rubedo looking up at them with a curious and playful look in her eyes.
Albedo and Rubedo stared at their lord and love as his face twisted in confusion before he somewhat shakily schooled his features and spoke "Something is wrong." the voice that spoke the words was deep and clear but it hid nervousness.
Albedo tilted her head slightly in confusion and this again made Cain even more nervous and so he turned to face Sebas and spoke "Sebas go out and confirm the surroundings of Nazarick."
The refined and elderly looking butler stood from his kneeling position bowed at the waist and straightened his back before replying "As you wish Lord Cain."
As the man left Suzuki ordered that the rest of Nazarick be put on lockdown before dismissing the maids to their floors Suzuki then seemingly on a whim turned back to Albedo and her sisters before dismissing them back to their floors as well.
This meant that he was now alone with Albedo who was smiling at him as she stood beside him Cain decided that now was the time to test whether or not he was still in the game or not.
Cain turned to Albedo and with a stutter asked his question "Albedo m-may I touch your b-breasts?" Cain immediately froze that sounded bad even from his own mouth.
Albedo however seemed pleased at the question and moved closer pushing her chest closer to him giggling faintly as she did Cain took a moment unconsciously licking his bottom lip due to his nervousness before slowly raising his hand grasping one of them softly.
However the second Cain's hand grazed her cloths Albedo let out a small gasp of pain which immediately withdrew his hand unsure as to what caused the pain "Albedo are you ok?"
Albedo dramatically shook her head positively before she spoke "It is ok my lord that didn't hurt much." Albedo then began to trail off muttering dirty things to herself as Cain, who had stop listening to her after her first sentence, began to think on why his touch had hurt Albedo.
After a few moments Cain arrived at a conclusion one of his racial classes or passive skills had an auto damage feature and despite not being able to access the consul he somehow recalled all the classes and skills that had that trait and when he thought of disabling or otherwise shutting off the auto damage part of the ability something in him seemed to click.
Cain then raised his hand to try again instantly drawing the heavily blushing and slightly panting Albedo back into the real world from her fantasies offering her chest again almost forcing her chest forward.
This time when Cain's palm met Albedo's breast there was no gasp of pain, internally Cain nodded to himself as his hand started to subconsciously squeeze and release due to the firm but soft feeling of her breast much to Albedo's pleasure.
Cain however was now thinking over the fact if he were still in the game the action that he had, still was, committing would have gotten him auto banned but nothing only confirming at least a little in Cain's mind that he was no longer in Yggdrasil or some sort of beta test.
Cain's thoughts were interrupted however by a small moan drawing his mind and eyes back to the woman in front of him where upon seeing her and realizing what he was doing he immediately released her chest.
Realizing that he had been fondling her for so long Cain went to apologize but Albedo cut him off before he could "Is my first time to be here in the throne room?!" asked the inflamed and blushing Albedo while she clutched at her dress.
Cain's eyes widened in surprise and his head almost smacked against the back of his throne as Albedo moved closer speaking of more and more lewd things that she thought they were about to do.
After hearing some of the things she was say Cain did his best to hide his body's response and replied with a commanding shout "Calm down!"
Albedo immediately backed away a slightly sad look on her face as she lowered her head and spoke "I-I am sorry Lord Cain that was presumptuous of me."
Cain suppressed a full body shudder and stood while again doing his best to hide his body's reaction lest he excite Albedo again before he began to walk away "A-albedo in an hour's time I want all the guardians except for the fourth and eighth floors to meet me on the sixth floor… I am going on a head s-see you later." Albedo gave a bow and didn't raise her head until Cain had left.
Cain for his part made his way out of the throne room at a rather awkward pace a mix of slight jog and a faux graceful walk and it was a few minutes before he finally felt that he was far enough away to slow down and think some more.
After some thought Cain decided that he needed to test the team damage and see if there was a way to shut it off or limit it and the best or maybe the most ironic place to do this would be the arena guarded by the dark elf twins.
Thus he began he decide to try and teleport to the arena on the 6th floor with the use of his ring and much to his delight it worked as it should depositing him just shy of the arena's entrance.
Once he entered the arena Cain couldn't help but admire the false sky above him in all its star lit glory recalling Blue Planet and he smiled as the memories attached with his friend.
However, Cain's memory review came to a stop when he noticed a small red and white blur jump from the VIP box with a giggle before it landed and ran to him coming to a stop not 5 feet from him.
"Hello Lord Cain it's a pleasure to see you and welcome the sixth floor !" stated the blur which Cain now saw to be a small elven child who was smiling at him causing Cain give a small and gentle smile in reply.
"Aura I am sorry but I will be intruding in yours and your brother's floor for a bit." said Cain still smiling at her.
"Lord Cain you are the leader of the supreme beings, any visit form you could never called an intrusion." said Aura smiling at Cain before she seemed to have a sudden realization and turned to look at the VIP box.
"Mare get down here you are disrespecting Lord Cain!" shouted Aura cupping her hands around her mouth in an attempt to increase her volume and carrying power of her voice.
It was then that Cain saw a second figure, who Cain assumed to be Mare Aura's twin brother, appear from the VIP box but unlike the first it didn't jump down it just stayed inside the box or it did until Aura shouted that she would drag the person down herself if they didn't hurry up.
This threat seemed to work on the figure and they jumped down this one was blue and unlike Aura the landing wasn't very graceful but after straightening out their cloths before they began running over and again nowhere near as fast or graceful Aura's approach but after a few moments the second dark elf twin joined them.
"I-I am s-sorry Lord Cain." stuttered Mare shyly while he bowed his head as Aura gave him and annoyed look and with her arms raised with her palms laying upwards in a shrug Cain simply nodded before he looked at the twins frowning slightly at Bukubukuchagama's choose in clothing Aura's was fine she looked sharp Mare on the other hand disturbed him slightly.
Mare was after all a boy and Aura was female it was only that Bukubukuchagama's sense of humor that she made these two into what could have been considered a trap set, a female reverse trap and a male trap, the two elven twin's age didn't help at all as they were by elven standards young still children even though they were actually 76 years old.
If Cain wasn't aware of the fact that Mare was a male he probably would have found him cute…not that he didn't find the twins adorable in their own way but still.
It was then that Cain realized that he had been staring at the twins and tried to brush passed it "I have come to tes…confirm the guild weapon's power as well as some other things to ponder with your help."
As Cain finished his statement the twins finally took notice of the staff in his hand and Aura was the first to reply seemingly in awe over the golden staff in Cain's hands.
"Is that the legendary weapon crafted by the Supreme Beings specifically for you Lord Cain?" asked Aura as she took in the features of the staff while Mare did the same.
Cain nodded and replied pride filling his chest when he remembered all the time and effort his guild mates and himself had put into the creation of the his personal weapon needless to say he began to joyously speak of its creation, its attack power, its passive perks, and its skills.
After a bit of this Cain realized that he had been rambling and stopped talking for a moment while closing his eyes trying to block out the image his mind was conjuring of the twins' bored or annoyed faces and posture due to his ramblings.
However, in doing so he missed the twins' actual reaction which was of shock and awe whispering between each other about how Cain and the staff where cool.
So before he opened his eyes Cain ordered the twins to set up test dummies for him to practice his weapon's current form…after a set of Aura's dragon kin set out a few human sized straw dummies and backed away Cain pointed his staff at the straw men and spoke "Summon: Primal Fire Elemental!"
The red gem in the staff glowed and the straw men almost immediately caught fire and disintegrated that fire then swirled together into a massive almost dragon kin like beast with a tornado of flame for a lower body.
Cain's attention was then drawn to Aura and Mare who were looking at his creation in awe Aura in particular looked like she wanted to fight it.
Cain decided that he would indulge her "Do you want to fight it?" Cain's question immediately caught the attention of Aura who nodded excitedly at him to which Cain tilted his head and pointed out with his chin in an invitation much to Aura's delight and Mare's despair.
Cain moved to the outer edge of the arena as dark elf twins moved to the center of the arena where the Primal Fire Elemental stood awaiting orders which Cain gave after the dark elf twins were ready "Primal Fire Elemental attack the dark elf twins."
The beast immediately roared and charged but Aura jumped and slashed it with her whip and cleaved through it but it brought itself back together and threw a punch at Aura but Mare cast a shield spell and protected his sister before she attacked again.
Seeing that the fight was going the way he expected Cain turned away turning back to his thoughts after a few moments he decided to try the message spell but as he feared the spell reached but connected to nothing and ended.
Cain was about to turn his attention back to the twins when the spell connected and he heard Sebas' voice through the spell "My Lord is there a problem?"
Cain's reply was immediate "No how is the outside of the tomb." there was a pause before Sebas replied.
"There is a problem…" however Cain cut off Sebas before he could continue.
"Please come to the 6th floor arena and inform the floor guardians and me at the same time." ordered Cain as his eyes drifted to the false sky again.
Cain got the impression that Sebas was bowing his head as he responded "As you wish my Lord." the call ended in silence.
Cain had just brought his hand away from his head when he suddenly felt a snap in his head and he turned to face the Primal Fire Elemental only to see it fading away.
Smiling Cain approached the dark elf twins and they did the same and when they met Cain decided that they looked a bit thirsty and reached into his storage and withdrew a pitcher and two cups.
"Would you two care for a drink?" asked Cain holding out the cups to the two, each twin nodded and took a cup which Cain then filled with water from his pitcher much to the shock and awe of Aura and Mare.
The twins then savored the drink their Lord had poured for them and once they were finished Cain asked if they wanted another but the two denied his offer.
It was then that Aura spoke "Lord Cain to be honest I didn't know you were this nice I thought you were scary." Cain tilted his head curiously as he picked up the cups and returned them and the pitcher to his storage.
"I can be scarier if you like." said Cain but Aura and Mare made dismissive gestures with their hands before Aura spoke.
"No no I like you a whole lot more this way!" Cain smiled at the two and nodded to them however before anymore could be said a black circle opened near them and a short slightly buxom girl exited.
Her face was regal looking and she wore a deep purple dress with red trim and lining and it was in a Victorian style and she was a bit on the short side only a bit taller than Aura.
Cain smiled at Shalltear she did the same the moment she saw Cain and she took a single hurried step before she seemed to teleport into a tackle hug on Cain, much to his shock.
"Lord Cain my dearest love, father of my race and the one being I could never rule above!" exclaimed Shalltear clinging to Cain's neck which due to Cain's height left her with her feet off the ground giggling all the while.
It was then that Aura spoke up seemingly annoyed if her frown meant anything "Shalltear stop drooling on Lord Cain!" Shalltear immediately stopped giggling and released Cain's neck before she turned her head slightly to look at Aura and Mare.
"Ahh shorty I didn't notice that you were here." said Shalltear earning a twitch from Aura and before anything could be said in reply Shalltear continued "Mare I can't imagen having such a troublesome sister, how do you do it?"
Aura then let her frown fall from her face and she spoke almost in a whisper "Miss fake tits." immediately Shalltear reached for her chest in shock with a look of horrified shock on her face.
"That's what I thought you must have over stuffed your bra in a hurry and that's why you went through the trouble of using a gate instead of running, you were worried that it would shift as you ran!" said Aura with a wide smile on her face.
Shalltear ground her teeth as she replied "You have no room to talk you have nothing but a boy chest!" but to this insult Aura still smiled and shrugged.
"That may be but I am only 76 years old I have many years left before I am done growing up!" replied Aura nonchalantly before she continued "However, you are in a dead body so I think it's about time you accept your bug bites."
Cain couldn't help the kind hearted smile that spread across his face as he stared at the two small women verbally brawl recalling that Bukubukuchagama and Peperoncino also had spats much like this when they were still playing.
After a few seconds a deep almost echoing voice came from the far end of the arena "Both of you behave yourselves, you are acting like children in front of Lord Cain!"
Shalltear was about to talk back but Cain now with a serious expression on his face put an end to it by stomping his staff on the ground before speaking "Cocytus is correct now is not the time for playing…" Cain then turned to face Cocytus and spoke again "It is a pleasure to see you Cocytus."
As said insectoid warrior finished his approach and came to a stop he replied "I will always come when you call my Lord!"
It was then that another voice rang out a cultured and refined voice spoke from another direction "I apologize for my late arrival everyone, I hope that you weren't waiting to long."
Cain again turned his head and was met with the sight of Demiurge and Albedo both making their way to him…once they were all together in a group Albedo took a few steps closer before kneeling an action mimicked by the remaining Floor Guardians.
Cain was momentarily shocked but managed to keep a straight face as Albedo began to speak "I, Albedo Guardian Overseer pledge myself to Lord Cain last of the supreme beings."
The rest of the Floor Guardians then mimicked Albedo one after another until they were finished these words caused a bit of a mix up in Cain and some of his Passive skills began to act up unleashing an oppressive aura which despite their many strengths managed to push them all a bit lower into their kneeling.
Cain then spoke "Most Excellent my Floor Guardians I have no doubt that you will do your duties and fulfill your orders without fail!" this was apparently the right thing to say as all the Floor Guardians perked up visibly and had smiles or at least smirks on their faces.
Cain then noticed Sebas in the corner of his vision and began speaking "However, at this time the situation involving Nazarick's location and surroundings is still unknown to us and with that said I early ordered Sebas to search the surrounding area." as Cain finished he turned bodily to face Sebas who bowed to him before approaching closer.
Once Sebas finished getting to a respectable distance he kneeled and began speaking "Lord Cain it appears that the Great Tomb of Nazarick has been transported to grassland that is to say that the swamp that once surrounded it is nowhere to be seen and furthermore there wasn't a single building, human or monster, within one kilometer of Nazarick's current position."
Cain thanked Sebas for his work before speaking "It is as I thought Nazarick has been moved to an unknown place by unknown means…Floor Guardian Leader Albedo and Defensive leader Demiurge I have orders for you both, fortify our defenses and find a way to further our info gathering…the rest of you follow their example."
All of the Guardians replied immediately "Yes my lord." Cain nodded and then turned to Mare.
"Mare is there a way to hide the Great Tomb of Nazarick?" asked Cain looking into the eyes of the male dark elf.
Mare nodded before replying "Yes, my Lord though it will be difficult if all we use is magic…however if we cover the walls in dirt and vegetation it would help camouflage us from intruders."
Albedo almost immediately spoke anger coloring her words "You would smear dirt on the Great Tomb of Nazarick?!"
Cain however cut her off before she could say more "Albedo do not speak out of turn." after Albedo apologized Cain turned his eyes back to Mare and spoke again "Are you sure that will be enough to disguise us Mare?"
Mare nodded positively and spoke "Yes Lord Cain though…"
Cain nodded and spoke seeing why Mare was hesitating "I see one hill would look a bit unordinary…" Cain then turned to Sebas and asked a question "Are there any nearby hills that we could blend in with Sebas?"
Sebas replied negatively "No there are none it is nothing but flat land as far as the eye can see."
Cain then replied "Hmm would making dummy hills suffice?" at Sebas' nod Cain turned back to the assembled Floor Guardians and spoke again "Then that is what we shall do and then we will use illusion magic to hide the areas that we can't cover."
"As you wish my Lord it shall be done." said Mare bowing his head.
"However, before any of that begins I have a question I wish for each of you to answer honestly…Shalltear you shall be first, what is your opinion of me?" asked Cain staring at the true born vampire.
Shalltear already blushing spoke "You are beauty incarnate there is nothing living or undead that could compare to your brilliance." Cain then turned to Cocytus calling his name to give his answer.
Cocytus straightened his back slightly and replied "A man unrivaled in power, unmatched by any of the Floor Guardians and man truly worthy of ruling the Great Tomb of Nazarick until the end of times."
Cain then turned to Aura and she spoke "You are compassionate and always three steps ahead of the game." Cain then turned to her brother.
Mare then spoke as prompted "A kind and merciful leader." Cain then faced Demiurge who then gave his response.
"A man who makes wise decisions and acts upon them swiftly and efficiently without hesitation of any kind and your nigh enigmatic nature makes you impossibly difficult to predict."
Cain then turned on Sebas who was at his side calling the man's name as he did.
"You are the head of all the Supreme Beings and despite all the others leaving us you mercifully stayed with us until the very end." said Sebas bowing slightly lower as he finished.
Finally Cain turned to the last Floor Guardian "Lastly, Albedo?"
"You are the highest ranking member of the Supreme Beings our ultimate master and the ruler of Nazarick as well as the man to which my heart and soul belongs." said Albedo passionately.
Cain almost flinched at the last few words but replied "Yes I see I have heard your thoughts and given you your orders go work faithfully in my name!" once he finished Cain used the ring of Nazarick and teleported to a random hall.
Cain then released a breath and took an even larger one in internally stressing at the high views that the Floor Guardians had of him…he then noticed that some of his Passive skills were on and shut them off wondering just when they had come on.
Back with the Floor Guardian
Everyone remained on their knees for a few moments until finally Albedo stood brushing off the dirt which had got on her dress as she did so.
Mare was the first to speak "That was scary I thought I was going to faint."
Aura replied immediately "Yeah I was sure that the pressure was going squish us!"
Cocytus then spoke "To think he would be so amazing."
Then Albedo spoke clutching her hands to the center of her chest as if in prayer "When he shows his true power and authority he is even more glorious than I imagined!"
Demiurge pushed up his glasses as he replied "Indeed."
Cocytus then spoke again "He seemed pleased with our pledges of loyalty I do hope that is the case."
Aura then cut in smiling widely as she spoke "He acted completely different when he was alone with Mare and me in fact he was super kind and gentle he even gave us something to drink because he thought we looked thirsty."
No one noticed Albedo panting and shaking slightly which became more aggressive as they continued to talk "That just proves he is a true ruler through and through his power and mercy is amazing." said Mare.
Albedo finally whipped around hands still clutched over her chest sporting a wide smile and a deep blush as she spoke "It is just as you say Mare he wasn't he, he sensed our feelings and acted on them accordingly just as an absolute ruler should, of the forty one Supreme Beings he stands at the top and when all the other have left us he mercifully stayed behind with us!"
Sebas who was also standing now spoke "If there is nothing more I will return to my duties I don't know where Lord Cain has gone to within the Tomb but wherever he is I should stay by his side."
Albedo who had turned to face him replied "Very well if anything happens please let me know immediately Sebas, especially if Lord Cain calls for me personally but if he calls me to his bed camber then I will need room to prepare but if Lord Cain wishes for me immediately I will…"
Sebas cut her off with his words "You have made yourself clear, I shall take my leave." as he finished Sebas bowed slightly and walked away from the group it was then that Demiurge noticed that Shalltear had yet to stand up and she was quietly whimpering on the ground.
"Is there something wrong Shalltear?" asked Demiurge with a bit of worry coloring his voice.
Cocytus spoke next "Are you hurt, ill!?" at the questioning Shalltear raised her head exposing a flushed and blushing face.
"No, I am fantastic I just got a little over stimulated is all, his power was so intense my underwear went through a bit of a crisis." said Shalltear without a hint of shame.
Albedo didn't take to kindly to Shalltear's words and spoke "Disgusting bitch!" Shalltear immediately stood and faced Albedo a scowl on her face as both women glowed with hostile intent.
"What don't pretend your aren't thrilled over the gift he just gave us he just shared a bit of his power with us, if something that incredible doesn't make you excited you must be rancid beneath that dress!" shouted Shalltear again without shame.
Immediately Albedo responded with a wide and demented smile "You filthy parasite!"
Shalltear spoke again while a sporting her own smile "The Supreme Beings made me what I am and I take pride in it and a big mouthed idiot gorilla isn't going to change that!"
"Keep flapping those fangs see where it gets you!" roared Albedo.
Demiurge decided that he had seen enough and spoke "Right, Aura I will let you deal with the women issue."
Aura's response was immediate "whoa, whoa not so fast you can't dump this on me."
Demiurge of course had a response prepared "If it starts to get bloody I will intervene." Mare seemed to struggle with his morals for a moment but made the smart choice choosing life over his sister walking away from her just behind Demiurge.
"Is this really something to fight over?" asked Cocytus much to Aura's dismay.
"Even you Cocytus?" asked the now resigned Aura before turning back to the two fighting women unsure of how to prevent an actual fight.
After they were some distance away Demiurge felt it was safe to talk "Their little spats aside I would be interested to see the results of such a union." Mare looked at him with a confused look and Demiurge continued.
"It would be a great addition to our forces and pave the way for Nazarick's future." stated Demiurge.
Mare's confused look persisted as he spoke "I am not sure I understand."
Demiurge frowned slightly before pushing up his glasses and spoke again "Every great ruler needs an Heir don't they…Lord Cain stayed with us till the end but one day he may leave join the other Supreme Beings where ever that is, therefore it would be nice if he left an Heir for us to swear our loyalty to agreed?"
Mare looked over to the female Floor Guardians and spoke "So you're saying one of them should give birth to Lord Cain's Heir?"
"That is blasphemy if we do our jobs that won't be a problem!" shouted Cocytus angrily.
"Yes of course but imagen instead of serving one Lord that we could pledge ourselves to his line." stated Demiurge immediately cutting off Cocytus' anger.
"Oh that would be lovely, no it would be wonderful!" said Cocytus walking away while imagining the unborn Heir of his Lord playing with him, learning swordsmanship with him, riding his shoulders, ordering him in battle to Cocytus at that moment there would have been no greater pleasure.
Demiurge seeing that Cocytus was pacified turned to Mare "By the way Mare is there a particular reason that you are wearing a female's garments?"
"Actually this is what Lady Bukubukuchagama chose for me…she said I was a crossdresser or something like that maybe wearing these cloths makes it easier for me to cast my spells." replied Mare somewhat unsure in his words.
Demiurge hummed and then replied "Interesting perhaps it would be a good idea to have the males try wearing female garments at some point…Later, Cocytus please come back to the real world!"
Cocytus immediately snapped out of his fantasy and began walking back while speaking "Amazing that is surely a future to wish for!"
Seeing this Demiurge turned to look over at Aura and spoke "Aura has that fight finished?"
Aura's reply was quick "Yes the fight is over but now they are arguing!"
Shalltear took this moment to speak up "We are deciding who the master's head wife shall be."
"It would be odd if Lord Cain as the absolute ruler of Nazarick didn't have a harem but only one of us can be his official wife." continued Albedo looking over at the male Floor Guardians.
Demiurge nodded before replying "Ah interesting but don't you think it's time for us to focus on the tasks Lord Cain has set for us?"
Albedo nodded before brushing some of her hair back behind her ear as she spoke "Yes of course back to work…Shalltear we shall speak of this later at length."
Shalltear smirked back and replied "I look forward to it."
"Now then it is time to begin planning." said Albedo already thinking of ways to better Nazarick's defenses.
Back with Cain 3 hours later
Cain was currently walking the halls with one of the battle maids, Narberal Gamma a doppelganger well to be fair she was following him on the orders of Albedo.
It was an unsettling feeling to be followed constantly so Cain spent his time doing his best to ignore her by trying out his Passive skills and seeing what skills had different effects.
Cain found that having undead Passive skills made him not need food, water, or sleep and gave him immunity to poisons and mind effects whereas slimes made him extremely hungry but almost completely negated physical attack the insectoid Passive skills also shared the hunger trait meanwhile humanoid Passive skills left him mostly the same.
However, Cain was tired of the experiments and couldn't bring himself to ignore the maid that accompanied him and by now being cooped up and monitored as he was Cain wanted to see the outside world and get some fresh air.
As Cain came to a stop Narberal paused before Cain turned to her and spoke "Narberal I have something I wish to do alone."
"My Lord please allow me or one of the other maids to accompany you if something should happen to you while you are out we wouldn't be there to lay down our lives in your defense my Lord." said Narberal trying her best to impress her determination upon Cain.
But Cain dismissed her words with a wave "No I am doing this alone." stated Cain with finality before he began walking away leaving Narberal alone.
Unknown to Cain a minute after he was out sight Narberal brought her hand to the side of her head activating the message spell as she did and spoke "Lady Albedo…"
Cain meanwhile wondered his way towards the surface before growing bored so he teleported himself to the a hall just before an exit of the tomb only flinch back slightly at the sight of the beings that stood before him three of the four demon generals under Demiurge: Envy, Greed, and Wrath.
However the second he teleported in the Demon generals' heads whipped towards him before their eyes widened collectively and they bowed in respect.
Cain meanwhile recollected himself and tried to work out why Demiurge's subordinates were there in the first place but his ponderings were cut short when Demiurge himself appeared walking forward from within the group of demons.
"Lord Cain what are you doing here without an escort?" asked Demiurge in surprise as he kneeled but Cain couldn't speak he was a little to shocked to do much aside from breath and keep a straight face as his eyes drifted to the exit before locking back on to Demiurge.
After a moment Demiurge pushed his glasses up his face a bit as he stood before speaking "So it's like that is it your attention to detail is impeccable."
Cain was again caught off guard by Demiurge unsure of just what his friend's creation was talking about however Demiurge spoke again "However my Lord I can't let you leave without guards of some kind if something were to happen to you I wouldn't be able to forgive myself."
Cain scrambled for an answer and eventually found one "Fine I shall let you and you alone accompany me Demiurge." said Cain with a nod as he began to walk forward.
Demiurge usual smirk widened slightly as he replied "Thank you for this honor my Lord I shall not let you down." as he finished Demiurge fell in line behind Cain as he moved past the demon generals.
It wasn't long till they finally reached the surface Cain almost immediately paused in awe to take in the beautiful night sky in which he could see the stars and moon clearly as they shown through the inky depths of space.
Cain for the second time that week recalled Blue Planet he really could understand why the man was so obsessed with the beauty of nature now.
Cain mentally shook himself clear of those thoughts and cast a spell on himself "Fly."
Cain then shot off into the air ignoring Demiurge who remained on the ground a few seconds longer due to his transformation to acquire wings and in doing so he took on an almost frog like appearance.
Cain continued his flight till he was well above the clouds before finally coming to a stop again admiring the beauty of the land he was now a part of.
"This world is so beautiful like a treasure chest full of precious stones." said Cain somewhat quietly speaking more to himself than anyone else.
Demiurge having arrived just in time to hear him replied "I believe that this world and all it infinite wonders exist sole for you to adorn yourself with them and I believe that us Floor Guardians exist to help you achieve that goal."
Cain looked back to his subordinate and hummed "Maybe you are right about the Demiurge maybe we were brought to this world to concur it but to horde such things for myself would be incredibly selfish so instead I shall use them to adorn the Great Tomb and its denizens and my friends of Ainz Ool Gown." said Cain finishing his sentence with a chuckle.
Demiurge bowed his head and spoke "If that was your wish we as your servant would gladly use all our power to achieve it."
Cain again chuckled but replied "It is a little early to be planning so far ahead we aren't even sure of the strength of this world's inhabitants but it makes me think maybe the most enjoyable thing to do would be taking over the world."
When Cain finished speaking he turned to face the moon completely missing Demiurge's shock visage as he heard Cain's words.
After a moment Cain's mind began to wonder as to whether or not he was the only player brought to this world from Yggdrasill but his thoughts were derailed when he notice the ground below him moving in large controlled motions.
Cain couldn't help but mentally praise Mare for his use of spells and skills to increase his abilities after a few seconds Demiurge spoke "What are you going to do now Lord Cain?"
Cain turned back to Demiurge before replying "I am going to reward Mare for his hard work."
Demiurge gave what could have been considered a smile with his frog like face and replied "I am sure that you simply speaking to him would be reward enough my Lord."
Cain didn't acknowledge Demiurge's words and began to fly down to greet his elven subordinate.
As Cain landed Mare ran over before bowing as he greeted Cain waving to Demiurge as he spoke "My Lord what are you doing here?"
Cain smiled at Mare and replied "Well I was curious about the status of the wall and seeing as it is almost complete I have decided to reward you." as he finished Cain pulled out one of the rings of Ainz Ool Gown from his storage space.
Mare immediately tried to refuse "No, no Lord Cain I couldn't possibly accept such a gift!"
Cain smiled at Mare as he replied "Mare your work is very important to the future of Nazarick and as such it is important that you be able to move freely so accept this ring."
Mare seeing Cain's, on the spot, reasoning hesitantly took the ring before slipping it onto his finger with a smile "Thank you Lord Cain I will treasure it dearly!" said Mare bowing again.
When Mare raised his head again he gained a curious if slightly confused look on his face and spoke "What are you doing out here anyway Lord Cain?"
Cain's brain apparently decided that it could think of anything in response and thus he froze but luckily for him another voice cut in "That's simple Mare Lord Cain simply wanted to make sure that everything was moving along smoothly."
Everyone's faces turned and were met with the sight of Albedo who was descending to be level with them Cain could only blink for a moment before he replied "A-ah Albedo I see you understood my intentions perfectly."
Albedo blushed heavily at Cain's praise and spoke "Thank you for the praise my Lord but even if I wasn't the Guardian Overseer I think that I would be able to feel your thoughts and emotions as if they were my own!"
As Albedo finished talking her eyes were drawn to a new addition on Mare's hand and the second she saw what it was she released a distressed noise scream while her eyes bulged in shock.
But in that same second her facial expression reverted back to her smile leaving Cain wondering if he had actually seen Albedo make that face or produce the noise he decided that for his mental health he would act like it never happened.
"Speaking of Albedo I need to give you one as well." said Cain reaching into his storage space.
Albedo tilted her head cutely "One of what my Lord?" she asked.
When Cain pulled the ring out and held it in front of her she froze and Cain decided to explain before she got the wrong idea "It is for your hard work and to help with your duties as the Floor Guardian Overseer."
As he finished he handed her the ring which she didn't put on she simply cradled it in her hands in fact she seemed to ignore him entirely.
However after a second he noticed that she was shuddering and breathing that he realized that maybe she was excited but for some reason that made a shudder travel down his spine.
So with no small bit of haste Cain wished them all well and that they have a good night before teleporting to his room and not even a minute later Albedo released a cry "YES!"
