Hello! This is my Overlord Fanfiction! I've only seen the anime, so excuse me if my knowledge is limited! My story is going to start after the takeover of E - Rantel.
Ainz Ooal Gown walked down the great halls of Nazarick, with Albedo and Demiurge at his sides. He was deep in thought, with both of the guardians careful not to disrupt his thinking. Ainz thought of all the things he had done since he got here. He had taken over the Lizard Men, saved Carne Village, taken over the Eight Fingers, and founded the Sorcerer Kingdom. He thought about Tabula, and Bukubukuchagma, and Peroroncino. How would they feel about the world he had created? Ainz stopped walking abruptly.
"What's wrong Lord Ainz?" Albedo asked.
"Nothing. How is the kingdom doing?"
"Oh, it's doing quite well! We had a rough start, but humans are skilled at adapting" Demiurge cut it.
"Good." Ainz replied, "I want a statue built in the center of the city."
"Of course Lord Ainz. How big shall this statue of you be?" Demiurge asked.
"It's not going to be of me, it's going to be of Touch Me."
"Lord Ainz! Why put up a statue of a supreme being who left?! Why not you?!"Albedo shouted.
"Silence! The decision is final!"Ainz glared at Albedo, "I will not have any disrespect to the founder of the guild." Albedo nodded silently, aghast that she had done that. Ainz, thinking he was talking in his head, accidentally said out loud, "Ya, know, Christmas would be coming soon." He winced as he immediately realized his mistake. He shouldn't have been reminiscing about the past in front on Demiurge and Albedo.
"What's 'Christmas' Lord Ainz? Forgive me for my ignorance!" Albedo whimpered.
"Nevermind, forget I said anything!" Ainz really didn't want them to try to decipher his words, "Anyways, Demiurge, I would like you to do a poll on people's opinions of my reign. Do the poll at schools, children will be more honest."
"Yes Lord." Demiurge was confused. It was not like Lord Ainz to get angry like that. And what was 'Christmas'? Was it some sort of ritual? No, the way Lord said it, it made Demiurge think of a date. A holiday perhaps? Nevermind, he had to focus on writing up a poll.
Enri looked out at the crowd. She was flabbergasted that this many people would come to listen to her, a mere governor. Anyways, onto the announcements.
"People of Carne Village! As I am the Governor of this village, under King Ainz, I am proud to announce the first Church of Ainz in the Kingdom! Here is Head Priest, Neia Baraja!" The crowd cheered, as Neia Baraja, the founder of the religion, stepped onto the stage. She had come from the Roble Holy Kingdom to help set up the first Church. She had started a pilgrimage to set up a branch of the religion in every country. Neia and Enri walked off of the stage, and entered the town hall.
"They seem to quite like the church." Enri stated.
"Yes! I'm so glad it's going smoothly. Ainz is great, isn't he?" Neia sighed, dreamily.
"Yes he is!" Enri wanted to repay Ainz for saving her and her village, and making her a governor. Opening up a church in his honor was probably a great way to do that. As the two sat down, Neia had a thought.
"Enri… Where did Lord Ainz come from?"
"What? I don't know. Why?" Enri responded.
"I was just thinking, Ainz clearly isn't from here, right?"
"Well, yeah… I guess."
"So where did he come from, and why did he leave? Is he related to the 13 heroes?"
"I don't know. Do you think he'd get mad if we asked?"
"Maybe…" The two girls sat in silence, realizing how little they knew about the man they had devoted their life to. Coincidentally, another being was having the exact same thoughts.
Albedo glared at the librarian. How was there no information on "Christmas" in the library! She needed to find out more about what had upset her love like that. She didn't want to, but Albedo considered calling the other Guardians for a meeting, to see if any of them knew what "Christmas" was.
Demiurge sighed as he walked to the throne room, tired from a long day of hard work. Not that minded, he pushed himself so Lord Ainz wouldn't get bored and leave. Now he had to participate in this silly meeting. As he walked in, he noticed not only was all the floor guardians there, but Pandora's Actor was there too.
"Greetings Demiurge." Albedo acknowledged his arrival.
"Hello. It appears that I am the last one here."
"So, Albedo, to what reason did you call us here?" Shalltear interjected.
"I wondering if any of you knew what 'Christmas' was. Lord Ainz got upset over the fact that Christmas was nearing."
"Well, I don't really know what that is…" Aura responded.
"After thinking about it, I think it might be some sort of date." Demiurge admitted.
"ALAS, I do not know of this Christmas you speak of!" Pandora's Actor proclaimed, striking a hilarious pose. The rest of the guardians sighed and rolled their eyes.
"Well, please keep an ear out for any information about Christmas, we want to know how to deal with it before it arrives." Albedo stated.
Hey, sorry this is later than promised. The holidays were busier than expected. Consider this a late Christmas gift!
