The Guardians and an Unexpected Return
-The world of massively popular D-MMORAG, YGGDRASIL drastically change after it last day of serves, the magic and items can still be used but various rules have changed and the N.P.C had begun to move of their own volition-
"Raised your head" Momonga deep and commanding voice range through the silent as he accidentally activated the [AURA OF DESPAIR lV] which is a skill that range from 1-5 level. 1 being fear 2 being panic 3 being confusion 4 being insanity and 5 being death. This aura took the form of black mist that swirled around the skeleton overlord 'GEEZ can I look anymore depressed and hopeless!'
"I am very pleased that all of you have come…" Karna said as he looked at each of the N.P.C, that was kneeling before them.
"Yours thank are wasted upon us, we pledge ourselves to you and live to obey any and all of your orders Lord Karna, but I fear that our abilities may not meet your expectations, despite this we will strive to meet them in honor of the lost supreme beings, our blessed creators…" Albedo places her hand over her chest and raised her head height and spoke once again "This we vow!"
"THIS WE VOW!" All of the guardians, demons and angeloid said in perfect unison as if they had rehearsed this a thousand times.
"...most excellent my guardians, demons and angeloid, I have no doubt that you will fulfill your duties without fail!" Momonga and as he spread out both his arms as his jaw opens, the [AURA OF DESPAIR lV] take on full effect. Karna [DEMONIC FEAR] turn into [DEMONIC TERROR] and it mixed with Momonga [AURA OF DESPAIR lV], the combined auras press down on the guardians, demons and angeloids making them shiver with the amount of power that was radiating off their master, this only serves to further their loyalty. The guardians, demons and the angeloids faces lit up in joy as the prospect of being acknowledged by a supreme being was indescribable.
"Now then, the situation outside the great tomb of Nazarick is at present and entirely unknown to us..." Karna said as he looked over and see sebas already kneeling at his side.
"With this in mind we'd had sebas survey the surrounding area, sebas reports!" Momonga said as he too notice sebas present.
"My lord I'm afraid that the great swamp that once surrounded the great tomb is now nowhere to be seen, instead we are surrounded by grassland" Sabas said as Momomga silently gasp in shock.
"Grassland?! Is there anything unusual about the grassland, and monster or traps?" Momonga questioned.
"No my lord" Sebas answered.
'No monster or traps?' Karna thought in confusion 'so we're not even in the YGGDRASIL world anymore, we're in a completely new world...this is getting more and more confusing…alright if that really is the case, then Nazarick safety comes first'
Within YGGDRASIL there were not a lot of safe areas where one can rest. This was put in by the dev because they wanted their players to explore their world they had created. So not many areas in YGGDRASIL were safe, and Nazarick being transported to a different location is impossible. Not even a World Item can't do that.
"Furthermore, I could not confirm a single building or life form one kilometer all around, it would seem we are completely insulated" Sebas said.
"Very good Sebas, you served us well" Momonga said as he turned to face his loyal subordinate.
Karna joined the conversation. "Narberal Gamma, Lupusregina Beta, you two both went with sebas, so i trust both of you can use the 'Flight' spell; I assume you took to the air to scout from above. Did you see anything other than what Sebas has said?"
The two named maids raised their heads, glanced at each other, and Narberal started speaking. "Yes lord Karna. I flew as high as I can as to get a better view of our surroundings. The grasslands described by lord Sebas extend for quite a distance, but in addition to that there are mountains to the north."
Lupusregina joined in, her voice low and abnormally solemn "There's also a big forest kind of close by, it seems to loop around south and then it goes west. It's really big, or at least it looked that way from where I could see it."
As Momonga started to think about where they might be, Karna continued. "Lupusregina, if im not mistacond, you have skills which let you detect things that others try to keep hidden right, have you discovered anything of note that has not been mentioned by Sebas or your Narberal?"
"I sense anything lord Karna."
"I see."
"As we suspected, Nazarick is transported to an unknown land by equals unknown means" Momonga said as his braid began to work itself into overdrive in order to think of what to do next.
Momonga was a bit frustrated with the lack of concrete information, although the tidbit about the mountains and forest was useful, he still couldn't guess where they might be, but he was fairly certain that they were no longer in YGGDRASIL. Looking around, he was sure that his companions felt the same way.
He figured that the best thing to do in this unknown situation would be to increase their security. If the land that they were occupying was under someone else's control then they would certainly be on their way here already. If that happened they had to be prepared.
"My Guardians, Angeloids and Demons"
Every eye was immediately on him. "In this unknown situation, you are each to raise the security of your assigned floors. In the event that intruders enter Nazarick, they are to be captured alive, not killed, and you are not to harm them if possible. I am sorry to burden everyone with this during this unknown situation" Momonga commanded.
The Floor Guardians all bowed in acknowledgement of this order.
Karna turned to Albedo "Next, Albedo, I wish to understand precisely how this organization operates, how do the Floor Guardians exchange information during a situation like this?"
During the days of YGGDRASIL, each Guardian was in charge of their own floor and couldn't leave it. Nor were the AIs capable of exchanging information with one another. Momonga wanted to know how this might have changed.
Albedo raised her head to address him. "Each Guardian defends their floor according to their own judgment. However, Demiurge is in charge of the defenses of the entirety of Nazarick, so everyone shares their gathered information with him."
"Then floor guardians overseer Albedo and defensive leader Demiurge, I have a task for you" Momonga aura flared up and the N.P.C shivered.
"Lord!"
"Fortified our defense and work on a way to strengthen our information gathering network and the rest of you will follow their lead" Karna said "I want to be able to quickly and easily disseminate information to everyone significant in Nazarick at a moment's notice, understand?"
"Yes my lord!"
"Lord Momonga, I trust that we aren't to include the eighth, ninth, and tenth floors in this planning correct?" Albedo asked.
"That's right." Karna said.
"Understood my lord."
Momonga looked at Karna, why would he not want the ninth and tenth floors included in the planning?
He wanted to ask, but now was not the time to do so, not with this audience. Rather than dwell on that, he decided to move on to the next idea.
Momonga now realizing he needs to give command to began to follow along "Mare is there any way to conceal the great tomb?"
"Yes, though it would be difficult if all we used is magic, but if we cover the walls with dirt and visitation, I think it would help to camouflage us from intruders-" Mare was then cut off by Albedo.
"You want to smear Nazarick glorious wall with dirt!" Albedo growled.
"Albedo don't make meaningless remarks" Karna said coldly. Though Albedo didn't dare to look up but she was sure the supreme one was glaring at her with his powerful curse eyes, the sharingan.
"Y-Yes lord, please forgive me, I was careless" Albedo said in a shaky voice as she can feel Lord Karna intense aura, her body tense with fear. The other Guardians, Angeloid and even the Demons ANBU, Sebas and the Pleiades included, all went still as though the order was meant for them as well. Soon Karna aura lessened much to Albedo relief.
To the denizens of Nazarick, Karna Vi Uchiha was a living legend among them, a genius strategist and a powerful warrior and commander, he was known as the DEMON EMPEROR with unmatched strength and knowledge. The Warmaster of Ainz Ooal Gown, arguably the strongest among the 41 supreme beings.
"Are you certain that the dirt will be sufficient Mare?" Momonga continue on with is question 'I think that was a bit too hard on her'.
"Yes I am, as long as you allow it of course, except…" Mare trailed off.
"Right one round of mound would look unnatural" Momonga said "Then Sebas, are there any hill around the tomb that we can blend in with?"
"No the area is berend, nothing but flat land as far as the eye can see" sebas said.
"Then fortunately the land can be molded to suit our needs" Momonga said
"then making dummies hill will suffice" Momonga said.
"Afterward we will use illusion magic to cover any area we cannot cover" Momonga said as he looked at Mare for conformation.
"O-off courses my lord, it will be done" Mare said.
That was when Karna stepped in. "Wait, I don't think this is a good idea."
Everyone immediately looked at him, Momonga included. "You don't think this would work Karna?"
Karna shook his head. "No, we should try to avoid any disruption to the surrounding landscape, we're trying to hide ourselves here, right, so it might work to hide this place from someone just passing through for the first time, but we don't have enough information to make any kind of guess as to what we'll encounter here, anyone or anything familiar with this area would notice a bunch of hills appearing out of nowhere one day, if anything, it would be more obvious than a tom, there are other considerations too."
He took a breath and continued. "According to Sebas, there are no signs of humans or any other civilization. But that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Momonga, you're worried about the possibility that someone owns this land, right? And that they might already be on their way here, yes?"
The servant of the supreme beings tensed there master words, at the possibility of incoming enemies. Momonga tentatively nodded and Karna continued on "If that's the case, then they likely already know where we are and trying to hide is pointless. If not, it's possible that using large scale magic to alter things could set off some kind of sensor that would alert such individuals to our presence here. Or otherwise gain attention that we'd rather avoid. For example, there's no guarantee that there are any humans at all here, the Great Tomb of Nazarick may very well be directly on top of a kingdom of usbteraining beings, or there could be nothing at all out there. For all we know, we could literally be the only sentient things in this world and we'll never find anything capable of even having a conversation outside of this Tomb. We don't know enough to say anything in any case, nor support even the flimsiest of assumptions. With that said, we should try towards the subtle and the least obtrusive. We should go with illusion magic and concealed the entire tomb."
Momonga appreciated the insight, he brought up a number of points that Momonga himself never considered, or never wanted to consider, but he had to point out the flaw.
"But, Karna, we don't have enough spell casters with illusion abilities to hide all of Nazarick."
"That is were I say incorrect my friend, we don't need to hide Nazarick at all times"
Momonga wasn't sure where he was going with this, but he didn't say anything, hoping he would continue on his own.
Momonga got his wish. Karna continued on "We can't maintain illusions of that scale indefinitely, but we could manage it for several hours at a time. I propose that we immediately begin scouting the surrounding area. We have to get well acquainted with the ground we will be defending. We determine lines of sight to Nazarick from every direction, as well as search for any sign of regular occupation or travel, roads, anything. Then we place watchers with stealth capabilities well away from Nazarick, far enough that they're at least half an hour away from even seeing Nazarick, to keep an eye out for anyone who might get too close. We give them each a 'Message' scroll. Upon sighting anything unsavory the watchers can use the scroll to warn us, and we can have our spell casters place illusions over wherever the interloper might see. If the watcher reports that there's someone in the northwest, heading south, we cast illusions to cover the north, west, and south to ensure that he doesn't see anything as he passes by. Then a watcher farther south reports that he's gone, we're all clear, and we drop the illusion to save mana. The issue would be anything that can fly, but we have spell item with enough magic to place an illusion over the top of the Tomb twenty four hours a day and still maintain this system."
"Overall, I think that this is best. It may be pointless, and if we run into anything that can see through the illusions then our cover is blown, but we run that risk anyway. It's more work, but it should be far less obvious that we're trying to hide something rather than just erecting a bunch of hills. What do you all think?"
Everyone was completely silent. The Guardian, the Angeloid and Demon ANBU was in awe.
Momonga was taken aback by the idea, but as he thought it over he concluded that it had merit. There were issues, like Karna said anything that could see through illusions would spot them. But if they went with Mare's hill plan they'd still have to rely on illusions to protect their roofs from sight so they were running the same risk either way.
The Guardians angeloids And demons wasted no time on praising the idea.
"As expected from one of the Supreme Beings, a superb idea!"
"I-I suppose that makes more sense than the hills."
"You see Mare, you shouldn't be thinking about stuff like dirtying Nazarick's walls, you have to think things through!"
"A. Splendid. Idea. Lord. Karna. I. am. in. awe!"
Karna nodded and pointed to Demiurge. "Then if everyone agree, Demiurge, you'll be in charge of scouting the surface and putting this into motion, understood?"
Without missing a beat Demiurge replied "Certainly Lord Karna, I shall ensure that everything meets your expectations supreme one." Demiurge said with a wicked smile.
"Excellent"
"Also contingency plan must be made, the possibility that someone that can see through the illusion still exist, so than Nazarick will be in danger" Karna said.
"So do have anything in mind if that were to happen?" Momonga asked.
"Yes I do" Karna said confidently "first we need to build 4 dummy Nazarick on north, west, south and east of the tomb with 5 rings of defense 1 kilometer away from the actual tomb"
The Guardians saw the cunning behind the move but still felt there was something they miss, to see the entire picture, except Demiurge who smiled widely.
"Brilliant my lord!" simply said the Archdevil "absolutely brilliant, turning a disadvantage situation into a benefit for Nazarick, no doubt your cunning was legendary my Lords".
"Ah, as expected of you Demiurge, Ubert did an excellent job with you" commented Karna "to unravel my five steps plan in a second, i'm impressive"
'I have a feeling that me and Demiurge are going to get along quite well'
"You honored me lord Karna" sighed Demiurge, feeling disappointed in himself "but I thought it was a four-step plan, I am still unable to comprehend your greatness".
'WHAT, and I thought it was a three steps plan, lure enemies in, test their strength with the five defense layer and loot their corpses, this is harder than I thought" Momonga release a mental sigh 'great I have role play like my life depends on it now, why are you so smart Karna!?'
"don't sell yourself short Demiurge" Karna said "you just have to think outside the box a little"
"I humbly thank you for your words of wisdom my lord!" deeply thanked Demiurge 'truly every individual Supreme Beings as worthy of respect and admiration'.
"Then going by your plan, once the dummy Nazarick is complete" continued Momonga expecting to sound and appear as an all-mighty Ruler whose foresight was beyond divine "we will use a combination of illusion spells and gradually stronger undead monsters on the defense layer".
"Five concentric rings of defense" added Karna "with low tier undead monsters on the first to third one and perhaps a Death knights on the final two before they reach the dummy Nazarick"
"And they were able to take the dummy Nazarick and If any get close to the real Nazarick then..."
"We will send out a band of low level monster with gold and have them patrol near the real Nazarick, if they are attacked, they will retreat to the first floor thus leading the individual to explore the real Nazarick right?" Momonga summarized.
"Correct, this sacrificial pawns will allow us some extraordinaire information about what we could expect outside" explained Karna "until I am proven wrong, I will assume that there are stronger players than us out there, with this undead, we can test how strong and what their true intentions are, by putting some minor treasures in the low level undead".
"If any intruder kill the undead and take the treasure and tries to walk away" snorted Karna "then he was a low level filth that will soon be interrogated for information and once done they will be killed and used to replace the undead they had destroyed, if they ignore the treasure and keep entering, then they know about the real Nazarick, and that is the real treasure here".
"Information, resources, slaves, ingredients and items" continued Karna with a softly but cruel laugh that send shivers through the spines of the servant of Nazarick and Momonga "five steps, five objectives like the five fingers of my hand" he raised his own gloved hand and clenched it like a fist, making all the Guardians, Angeloid and Demons shiver under the cold and soul-shattering sensation that emanated for their supreme ones " this will crush any fool that tries to cause harm to my sacred home!" his eyes began to glow red and he ended the explanation of his plan with an evil smirk.
"That will be your orders!" said Karna "capture all intruders alive, that are capable of defeating anything beyond the third ring of defense, then we could see what kind of world have we ended here".
"YES MY LORD!" Cheered the servant of supreme being.
"now then, before you go anand carry out your task, I have a question that I would like each of you to answer…" Momonga said as he looked at each of the guardians, the demons and the angeloid.
Karna keching on, said "starting with you Shalltear, tell me in your own words what kind of person we are to you"
"For lord Momonga, he is beauty incarnate, there is nothing living or undead that can rival your radiant glow my Lord~" Shalltear raises her head and blush "and as for Lord Karna he is the embodiment of vampires and demon kind, and he is like if power took on physical form itself, you are undoubtedly the strongest supreme beings to have ever existed~".
"Cocytus"
"Men's whose strength rival and surpass any beings, you are truly worthy of being the absolute rulers of the Great Tomb of Nazarick"
"Aura"
"Compassionate and strong, you two are always 3 step ahead of the game"
"Mare"
"Y-you both are leader whose is kind as well as merciful" Mare said shyly.
"Demiurge"
"The highest form of existence, both you and Lord Karna are men that make wise decisions and acts upon them efficiently and without any form of hesitation, also your enigmatic nature makes impossible to Predict you"
"Sebas"
"The both of you are the most powerful supreme beings, and are merciful enough to have stayed with us to the very end even though the other supreme beings have abandoned us"
'...that a red flag, so they think that the other has abandoned them then…I can't blame them but I need to address this issue someday' Karna thought.
"And lastly Albedo"
"You are the highest ranking members of the supreme beings our ultimate master and the rulers of Nazarick Lord Karna…and you lord Momonga are the man that whomp my heart belongs~!"
"U-um-mm y-yes I see" Momonga stutter 'I walked into that one'
"Now moving on to the angeloid" Momonga turn his skull to look at the sisters.
"Astil"
"You and Lord Karna are our most exalted masters, and I say this for my sisters as well, but out of all the creators that lived in this world, we are glad it was you that stay with us to the very end"
"Jibril"
"Wise and powerful, you and my creator lord Karna are the embodiment of perfection itself"
"Ikarus"
"A kind, caring and loving master that would do anything to protect us, and you are our most exalted master lord Karna as well as our creator"
"Nymph"
"You're wise and intelligent, and you are the embodiment of the word supreme beings, not even I or demiurge could match your intellect, I am proud to call you my master"
"Obito"
"I speak this for myself and on behalf of my brothers, you two are the most wise and powerful supreme being to have ever lived, and furthermore I would like to say this on behalf of all of Nazarick, of all the creator that lived in this world we are entirely grateful that it is you who had stayed".
The guardians and angeloid nodded in approval and all looked to see the reaction of their god.
"We have heard your thought and now have given you your order, go and work fatefully in our names!" Momonga said as he taps the staff on the floor.
"YES MY LORD!"
In a flash of blue light, Momonga and Karna disappears via the teleporting power of their guild rings.
-In a hallway that led to the guild master office in the 9th floor-
"I'm beat…" Momonga said with a heavy sigh "Why do they have such glorious views of us…"
Karna sigh "Well to them we are akin to gods, they say we created them and they even call us supreme beings, so that thought isn't impossible".
Back at the arena the guardians remain kneeling even after their supreme beings teleported away. None stood up as they all were slightly shaken after their God's just given them their orders.
After short awhile Albedo, Obito and Astil stood up first as they are responsible for making examples for others to follow. Albedo brush the dirt that stain her white dress and flap her black wings to get rid of the dirt that clung to her feathers.
"I t-thought I was going to faint, t-that was s-so scary" Mare shaken voice said as he stood up with the support of his wooden staff.
"Seriously I thought the pressure would crush us" Aura helping her brother stood up said.
"To think that they would be this amazing, supreme beings indeed" Cocytus said.
Albedo gently claps her hands together like she was praying "when they show their true power and authority, they are even more ~glorious~ than I imagine~" the memories of Lord Karna scolding her was still fresh in her mind.
"Indeed" Demiurge simply replied while pushing up his glasses.
"I also agree" Ikarus said. Though her beautiful face did not show any emotion her tone betrayed her expression. It was filled with loyalty and pride to her masters.
"especially Lord Karna~" Jibril said as she put bother her hand on either side of her cheeks with a deep blush "he was so commanding and air around him was so cold~".
"Calm down would you sis" nymph said as she shook her head, but they cannot denied that Jibril words are true.
"They seem pleased with our vow of fidelity, I hope that is the case" Astil said.
"They acted completely different when they were alone with Mare and me, in fact lord Momonga even offered us some drinks because he thought we looked thirsty and Lord Karna even pats us on the head" Aura smiled and had a tint of red on her cheek.
Meanwhile Albedo panting grow and her wing began to flap up and down uncomfortably.
"That just proved they are true rulers through and through, their power and mercy make them amazing" Mare said.
Albedo panting turn into a low moan and in an instant she turn around with wide eyes and a big smile and a bush that spread from ear to ear. Her hand still in the praying position "IT JUST AS YOU SAY Mare, they were incredible weren't they, they sense our feelings and acted upon them accordingly as an absolute rulers should!" Albedo continue and the guardians watched with a smile as they couldn't agree more "of all the supreme beings they stand at the top, and when all the other had left us behind they Mercifully stayed with us!"
"If there is nothing more I will return to my duty, I do not know where lord Momonga and Lord Karna is but wherever they are I should stay by their side" Sebas said.
"Then I shall join you sebas" Astil said.
"Very well sebas, if anything happens please inform me immediately, especially if lord Momonga wish me personally l will rush to his side no matter what I have to scarified!" Albedo said with a smile and a blush that spread from ear to ear.
"But If Lord Momonga want me to join him in his personal bedchamber than I would need time to prepare!" Albedo continues with her ramble, some of guardians such as Aura and Mare who were to young to understand look at her with a smile while Demiurge and Cocytus just sigh alone with the demons and angeloids.
"You'd made yourself very clear, now if you would excuse me I must take my leave" Sebas said with a bow and walked away alone with Astil.
At this point did the other guardians and angeloids heard a small moaning sound coming from behind the guardians. They all turn around to see Shalltear still kneeling but with a deep blush and her head hung lower casting a shadow over her eyes.
"Is there something wrong Shalltear?" Demiurge ask with genuine worried for his fellow guardians.
"Are you hurt, ill?" Cocytus said.
Shalltear raises her head and put a hand to her chest clutching it tightly "n-no I'm fantastic, I just got over stimulated is all, there combined power was so intense my undergarment when thought a small crisis"
"DISGUSTING BITCH!" Without missing a beat Albedo yell with furry and a dark purple, black Aura surrounded her.
"What!?" Shalltear growled as she raised from her kneeling position.
"Don't pretend you aren't thrilled with the gift they just gave us, they share so much of their power, if something that incredible doesn't make you wet, you must be ransent gorilla fat-skirt!" Shalltear said angrily as a dark red Aura emanates from her body.
"YOU FILTHY PIRACITE!" Albedo scream as her aura got more intense.
"The supreme begins made me is what I am, and I take pride in it, and a big mouth idiotic gorilla like you won't change that!" Shalltear Aura match Albedo.
"Keep flapping those fangs lambray and see where it gets you!"
"Riiight, Aura I'll let you deal with the women's issues" Demiurge said.
"WOH not so fast you can't dump this on me!" Aura turned to Demiurge and yelled.
"If it starts to get bloody I'll intervene" Demiurge turned around and walked off alone with the remaining demons, guardians and angeloids.
"Goodness, is this really something to fighting over" Jibril giggles.
"You too Jibril!" Aura wince.
"Their bickering aside, it would be quite interesting to see the results of such a union" Demiurge said.
"What?" Mare tilted his head in confusion.
"It would be a great addition to our forces, and it would pave the way to Nazarick future" Demiurge explain.
"I'm not sure I follow you" Mare confusion grew.
Demiurge sigh "every great ruler need an heir don't they, lord Momonga and lord Karna stayed behind in till the very end however someday they may leave to join the other supreme beings where they might be, therefore it would be nice if the left an heir we could pledge our loyalty too, agreed?"
"Um so you're saying that we should let one of them give birth to lord Momonga or lord Karna heir?" Mare question.
"BLASPHEMY, if we do our jobs then that won't be needed!" Cocytus shouted.
"Yes you are right, but instead of serving one lord we can pledge ourselves to their line" Demiurge turned to Cocytus and explained.
"Ohh that would kinda be nice, NO THAT WOULD BE AMAZING, I COULD SEE SO CLEARLY NOW, I WOULD BE UNCLE COCYTUS!" Cocytus yield in happiness as he began to daydream of the even.
"If you are so intrigued by the prospect of a child born to a supreme beings that role may have already been filled" Jibril said gaining the attention of the other guardians.
"WHAT?!" The guardians yelled.
Albedo And Shalltear quite their cat fight and ran over to where Jibril was and bombard her with questions.
"What do you mean by -a child born to a supreme beings that role may have already been filled!?" Albedo and Shalltear yield.
The other guardians looked at jibril with curiosity and waited for an answer.
"Well Lord Karna may already has a child" Nymph said.
"WITH WHO!" Shalltear yield in absolute raged.
"With Lady Jeanne" Ikarus cut in.
"WHAT!?" The guardians surprised grew even more.
"Didn't you know, they are married" Obito explains like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"I didn't know about this!" Shalltear said.
"Maybe It because you weren't made yet" Sasuke said.
"Oh, that's right, it was before they were made" Jibril said as she put a finger under her lips as she slightly floated off the ground.
"Please explains" Demiurge said as he pushed up his glasses.
"Well long ago when we were first created by Lord Karna, he was already married to Lady Jeanne" Shisui said.
"Not long after that they probably had an heir, but I do not know where he or she is or maybe they didn't even exist, it was just a rumor amongst the supreme beings" Itachi said as he began to wonder.
"This is fascinating!" Demiurge said with a smile and said "this mean Nazarick future is Secured!"
"But it may just be rumors and besides where is the supreme ones child now?" Shalltear wonders.
"We don't know if it is rumors or not" the angeloid said "only Astil knows"
"Shouldn't you know as well, you are the supreme one personal guard?" Cocytus said as he looked at the Uchiha brothers.
"Information about Lady Jeanne are kept secret even from us, we primarily guard the supreme ones personal realm, we only saw her a couple of times" Obito said.
"Why is that?" Aura said with confusion.
"I don't know the specifics, but it was rumour by the supreme beings that lady Jeanne was pregnant, so as to not draw Nazarick enemy attention, they kept her safe and hidden in the heart of Nazarick" Obito explain.
"Fascinating!" Demiurge said in wonders as he spread his arm out properly show his excitement and wonders. It was a true honor to hear the tales and legend of the almighty supreme one.
"I have a question, you just mentioned the supreme ones personal realm, what does that mean?" Albedo question.
"We aren't given any information or explanation on that, all we know is to guard that area with our lives, but if I had to guess it probably the birth place or a portal that led to the supreme one realm" Obito said.
"Not to be a party crusher, but for right now I think you guardians should focus on the task that our master has given you all" Jibril said.
"Right!"
"Now then it time to begin planning" Albedo said.
All the Floor Guardians lowered their heads in respect. However, they did not genuflect.
Of course, they had to show their respect to the Guardian Overseer Albedo, but she was not their master. While the Forty One Supreme Beings had set her over all the other characters that they had created, but even the position of Guardian Overseer was merely one set down by the Forty One Supreme Beings, and as such the other Guardians needed only to pay her the respect due to her station. Thus, they lowered their heads to her. On her part, Albedo was not angry at this, because she knew that was the most correct course of action.
2 DAYS LATER -Within Momonga room-
"I'd only took on a class of a magic caster but since I am a level 100 should have enough strength to swing a sword right?" Momonga said as he picked up a sword out of a container filled with sword and swung it, but it dropped out of his hand.
"Knew it" Karna said and picked up the sword that Momonga just dropped.
"So it looks like I can't use any item that aren't specific to my in game class" Momonga said "it been 2 days since we'd come to this world and not once had I felt uneasy about my undead form"
"Maybe your mentality changes along with your appearance?" Karna pointed out "we'd know that if you get emotional, then some outside forces calm you down, that bears investigation"
"Your right, and I haven't felt the need to eat or sleep since we came to this new world" Momonga said.
"[CREATE GREATER ITEMS]" Momonga was bath in a blue light, when it died down he was wearing a full plate black armor with gold trim and a red cape.
Momonga grab the sword that Karna was holding and swing it with all his might, the result was a shockwave of wind. Thanks to "[CREATE GREATER ITEMS]" he was able to change his outfit thus changing classes from a magic caster to a warrior. Thought this does has it droback as well for instant he is not as strong as a regular warrior even though they are the same level.
"So it really is like YGGDRASIL, if a magic item allows it, you can surpass your class restrictions" Karna said.
Karna body glow red as the spike on his armor disappears along with his red ethereal energy cape. In it place was a red fur cloak and 4 blade was attached to the red fur cloak.
"Why change?" Momonga questioned.
"Why wear the armor?" Karna retorted "and beside it more comfortable not wearing my full gear all the time, that cape was getting annoying"
—BEEP—Jeanne D'arc has logged in—
"...Um...Did you hear that?" Momonga quickly turn around to Karna and said.
Karna and Momonga looked around frantically.
"That doesn't make any sense, the server should have ended 2 days ago, so how is Jeanne supposed to log in!?" Momonga wonder.
"I don't know and I don't care, all I want to know is where is she!" Karna reach into thin air and polled out a scroll. He threw it into the air and the scroll quickly burst into blue flame.
"[DETECT ALLY PLAYER]" Karna waited and turn to Momonga "s-she outside the tomb!?".
"Really, how!?"
"I don't know but let's go and see her" Karna and Momonga quickly walked out of the room, only to see one of the battle maids standing just outside their door.
"We will be leaving the tomb to go outside for a bit" Momonga said turning to the maid name Narberal Gamma, the only creation of their friend Nishiki Enrai.
"Then the guard shall accompanies you my lords just give the word and-" Naberal was cut off.
"No need, we will go alone" Karna said dismissively.
"Please wait lord, if you leave without an armed escort, we will be unable to protect you, it is our sworn duty to act as you shield!" Narberal desperately persisted.
"I won't allow it, there something we would like to do discreetly, our decision is made" Momonga said as he and Karna began to walk off.
"As you wish my lords" Narberal sounded disappointed, as she looked at her lord retreating form as they got further away from her, she silently prayed that they would be safe. Although she truly believes that nothing can harm or match a supreme beings power, that still doesn't lessen her worries because for a servant that cannot protect their master no matter how strong the master is, that servant is a failure.
Using the power of the guild ring, the 2 supreme beings teleported to first floor entrench.
"This so tiring" Karna said.
"Tell me about it, I won't be able to use magic in this armor, but I can make do with my items" Momonga said as he and Karna walked up the stairs to the central mausoleum.
When they made it halfway up the stairs, they saw 3 demon blocking their path.
'Woh, Jealousy, Averas and Wrath, what are the 3 demon general under Demiurge command doing here!?' Momonga thought.
The Evil Lords are Demiurge's personal bodyguards. They are monsters around level 80-90, who spawned in Demiurge's realm of the Underground Volcano, near the door to the 8th Floor with the responsibility of guarding it.
However the three Evil Lords were ordered by Demiurge to be on standby and watch the 1st Floor of the Great Tomb of Nazarick after its unexpected transition into the New World.
The Evil Lords' level were estimated to be around 80 and are capable of calling forth an army of demons. However, it comes with a recharge period in doing so once a single day.
Of all the special abilities that Evil Lords possessed, the most dangerous one was the ability to summon another Evil Lord which was lower level than themselves. However, summoned monsters could not in turn summon more monsters. Therefore, the Evil Lord of Wrath that Demiurge had summoned could not summon another Evil Lord.
If there was an Evil Lord that had been created or made, then it should be able to summon additional creatures in their rank to fight alongside the summoner.
Demiurge walked out behind the demon generals and quickly noticed Momonga and Karna.
"Uh, my lord it you!" Demiurge said in shock, he alone with his demons general kneeled before their masters.
"My lord why are you traveling without an armed escort...and wear such armor?" Demiurge question.
'Crap how'd he know…!?' Momonga [MESSAGED] Karna.
'Calm down, only someone wearing the guild ring can freely teleport around Nazarick, so of course he knew' Karna [MESSAGED] back.
Well whatever the reason was, the cat was out of the bag now.
Demiurge could be said to be the wisest being in The Great Tomb of Nazarick, so being seen through was inevitable.
"Ah… it's complicated. Demiurge, you should know why I am wearing this."
Demiurge's elegant face twisted in consternation. He took several breaths before answering:
"My deepest apologies for being unable to comprehend divine your fathomless intentions, lord Momonga"
"Call me Dark Warrior."
"Pardon me, Dark Warrior-sama…?"
Demiurge seemed to have something to say, but Momonga tried his best to ignore it. Although it was a pretty embarrassing name, it made sense when one considered the names of other monsters in the game.
The reason behind having Demiurge address him by a different name was quite simple. Although only Demiurge and his vassals were here at the moment, this place was an exit, and many underlings would be passing through here. Momonga simply did not want them to call him "lord Momonga, lord Momonga," wherever he went.
'How much did Demiurge understand without knowing?' Momonga's thoughts. Just then, a look of enlightenment filled Demiurge's face.
"I see… so that's what's going."
'Eh? What's going on?'
Momonga stopped himself from speaking the words in his heart.
As a mortal man, Momonga had no idea what conclusion that Demiurge, intelligent and cunning beyond measure, had come to after his ruminations. All he could do was hope that Demiurge realised his true intentions as his head was covered in nonexistent cold sweat under his helmet.
"I believe I have some grasp on your profound schemes, Mo… no, Dark Warrior-sama. Truly, they are considerations that only the ruler of this domain would have taken into account. However, I cannot allow your noble self to proceed unaccompanied. I am aware that it may inconvenience you, but I hope that in your boundless mercy, you will permit one of us to escort you."
'Karna, help here'
'Uh, just let him'
"...It can't be helped. Very well, I will allow one person to travel with me."
Demiurge smiled elegantly.
"My deepest thanks for humoring my selfish request, Dark Warrior-sama."
"...Just call me Dark Warrior, you can dispense with the honorifics."
"How could I!? To do so would be unforgivable. Of course, I can obey such an order while acting as a spy or performing special missions, but within the Great Tomb of Nazarick, how could anyone not show the respect due to yourself, Momonga-sama… no, Dark Warrior-sama!"
Demiurge's passionate monologue moved Momonga a little, and he could not help but nod in approval. He mused that being called Dark Warrior would lead people to mock him for having such a lame name, and he lamented picking that alias so casually.
"Forgive me for wasting your valuable time, Mo-Dark Warrior-sama" Demiurge then turned to his servant "Then, you lot will wait here for orders, and explain to the others that I am on the move."
"Understood, lord Demiurge."
"Well, it seems your subordinates approve as well. Then, Demiurge, let us be off." Karna said.
Momonga and Karna walked past the bowing Demiurge, who raised his head and followed his master.
A while later
"Why was Lord Mo… cough, why was Dark Warrior-sama dressed like that?" Greed asked.
"I don't know, but there should be some reason for it." Jealousy replied.
The remaining Evil Lords muttered to each other in confusion.
After all, they had not seen through Momonga's disguise because he teleported here.
Momonga and Karna had no idea of knowing this, but the denizens of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, or rather, all of Ainz Ooal Gown's servants radiated a certain aura that the servants could sense in order to determine whether a stranger was friend or foe. Within the guild, the aura of the Forty One Supreme Beings that ruled Nazarick — now reduced to Momonga and Karna — was enough to tell them that the ones before them was their absolute ruler. They could sense their mighty presence from a distance and they could not have mistaken Momonga for anyone else, even through his full plate armor. They would have seen through their supreme one disguise immediately, regardless of how he arrived.
It was easy to differentiate his aura from the others in Nazarick.
The doors to the first floor swung wide, and someone climbed the stairs.
Judging by the aura that came from the stairs, the newcomer was a Guardian.
The Evil Lords saw the beautiful face of the Guardian Overseer, Albedo, rising from the steps. They went to one knee as they realised that they were in the presence of someone who was the equal of their master, Demiurge.
To Albedo, the vassals kneeling before her was merely natural, and she paid them no heed as she looked around.
Only after Albedo failed to find the person she was looking for did she turn back to the Evil Lords. She spoke without addressing anyone in particular:
"...I don't see Demiurge around. Where is he?"
"He…um... a Dark Warrior-sama passed through just now, so lord Demiurge decided to accompany him outside."
"Dark Warrior...sama?" Albedo tilted her head, indicating that she was confused "I don't recall a name like that among the servants… Which servant did Demiurge accompany? A Floor Guardian following a servant? How strange…"
The Evil Lords did not know how to respond, and looked at each other.
Albedo smiled gently to the Evil Lords.
"Could it be that a servants like you dare to deceive me?"
Her tender, final warning made the Evil Lords shiver, and they realized that they could not keep hiding things from her.
"When Dark Warrior-sama came here, Demiurge-sama concluded that he was a person worthy of our respect."
"I-in sort my lady, lord Momonga and lord Karna had just came here, they requested we call them Dark Warrior-sama!"
Albedo's voice seemed to crack a little, and so the Evil Lords calmly replied:
"...His name was Dark Warrior-sama."
"...And his guards? Did Demiurge receive some notification from Momonga-sama? But I already arranged to meet him, so does this mean Demiurge did not know Momonga-sama was coming? Ah, forget it, I need to change and bathe!"
Albedo touched her clothing.
Her clothes were dirty from her work. Her hair was tangled at the ends, as were her wings.
However, such petty imperfections could not begin to diminish the appeal of a world-class beauty like Albedo. It was insignificant, like the loss of a point or two out of a hundred million. However to Albedo, even the slightest blemish on her appearance was a mark of failure. She could not show this filthy self of hers to the man she loved so dearly.
"The nearest bath… the one at Shalltear's place? ...But then she might get suspicious… although I'll just have to bear with it. You lot, go to my room and get my clothes! Quickly!"
Just then, one of the Evil Lords called out to Albedo, who was pacing around. She was the Demon General of Jealousy.
"...Lady Albedo, though this might be rude of me, but would your present attire not be better?"
"...What do you mean?" Albedo angrily retorted as she stopped in her tracks. She thought the other woman wanted Momonga to see her in this unkempt state.
"...No, I simply meant that a beautiful woman like yourself would be best served by showing the signs of your hard work. In the end, you will still benefit, will you not, Lady Albedo?"
The other Evil Lords added their suggestions, "By the time you could bathe and prepare yourself to meet lord Momonga and lord Karna, much time would have been wasted. It would be a shame to miss a good opportunity because of that."
"I see—" Albedo mused.
They had a point.
"That makes sense… it seems I panicked because I have not seen Momonga-sama for such a long time. I can only meet Momonga-sama after eighteen hours, don't you think eighteen hours is too long?"
"Yes, it is."
"If only I could finish laying out the administrative framework and return to Momonga-sama's side… then I'd better not waste time griping and find Momonga-sama. Where is Momonga-sama now?"
"He just stepped out with lord Karna and lord Demiurge."
"I see."
Although Albedo's reply seemed curt, there was a distant smile on her face as she imagined being with Momonga, and she flapped her wings in an adorable way. She walked past the Evil Lords with hurried steps.
The footsteps suddenly halted, and Albedo asked the Evil Lords again:
"Just to be sure, do you really think Momonga-sama will approve of seeing me dirtied like this?"
But suddenly she felt a chill ran up her spine.
'This feeling… a supreme being?! Has a supreme being returned, can feel my beloved and lord Karna but this aura, it as strong as lord Karna himself!?'
'It has to be another supreme being!' Before the Evil Lord could replied, Albedo quickly ran out.
"How strange" Jealousy turned to look at Albedo quickly retreating form.
Momonga, Karna And Demiurge had just stepped foot outside the great tomb.
The moment Momonga and Karna set foot out of the tomb, they were captivated by the new world unbelievable beauty. The night sky glider like a treasure box full of diamonds and jewels, it was filled with thousands and millions of bright stars and the moon cast a brilliantly light that you can see everything with just that alone.
'Wow' Momonga simply said through [MESSAGE] to Karna.
'Amazing, I'd never seen a night as clear as this before, the article sky Blue Planet made on the 6th floor was incredible, but it could never hold a candle to this' Momonga said back.
'No kidding, our old world was filled with pollution, you can't even see the stars or even the moon from the thick cloud' Karna said.
'And you also have to wear protective suits wherever you go outside' Momonga sigh.
Momonga and Karna reach into thin air and pull out a necklace with a silver wing attached to it. They put it on and said "fly" Momonga And Karna began to fly up toward the sky.
Demiurge tenses up his body and two scaly wings grew out of his back. His face also began to change, his fairly human face except for the ears and eyes turned in what looks like a frog's head. He spread out his wings and quickly catches up with his master who'd had stopped a few hundred meters of the ground.
When Karna And Momonga had stopped flying, they both look down to see the tomb no longer there. This was because the great underground tomb of Nazarick was being concealed by illusion magic. Karna was looking left and right for any sign of Jeanne 'I know I heard that notification, so where are you Jeanne?' Karna though.
Momonga using one of his racial skills [ARCANE EYES] 'What's that?' Momonga spoke through [MESSAGE].
'What?' Karna turned and looked at Momonga.
'That light' Momonga said.
'What light, I don't see it' Karna said as he looked back And focus.
'Over there' Momonga pointed.
"What is it my lord?" Demiurge who was just a couple of feet behind Momonga questioned.
"[SHARINGAN]" Karna activated one of his class skills and his eyes began to glow dark red as multiple other eyes open on his body.
The Sharingan grants the wielder two broad abilities: the "Eye of Insight" and the "Eye of Hypnotism". Although the abilities are not literally restricted to certain eyes, the Sharingan should only be used to its fullest when both eyes are together. Even within these two categories, there may exist several distinct though similar abilities:
"Eye of Insight"
The user can see any player MP and HP bar if it is not protected first. The user is granted incredible clarity of perception, enabling them to read lips or mimic something like pencil movements. The Sharingan can even see on a cellular level. In combat, this allows them to see fast-moving objects and, once fully developed, offers some amount of predictive capabilities: they can anticipate an opponent's next move based on the slightest muscle tension in their body and act accordingly to dodge or intercept. Although a Sharingan user can see these things, they also need the physical ability to actually act on the visual information. If the user has enough prowess with the sharingan and if there eyes are contacted, the user can even enter the target's mind to look through their memories.
The user is able to copy almost any skill they see, memorising skills, and performing them with near perfect accuracy. However this can only be used a few times per day, the Sharingan users need the prerequisite abilities before they can mimic a skill they have seen, and for that reason they cannot, for example, reproducing a player skill that can only be accessed through a rare class or race, abilities that are higher level than they are.
The user can perform what is generically called Genjutsu: Sharingan. While there are various manifestations and purposes of the ability, the better known one is to, through eye contact, suggest thoughts and actions to a target, coercing them to divulge information or act in a particular way, potentially without the target's awareness. In extreme cases, the Sharingan user can take complete control of the target's body, forcing them to do exactly as the controller wishes; this control is visually indicated by the Sharingan's design appearing in the target's eyes. The Sharingan are infamous for it ability to tame the tailed beasts, which are very high level monster with level in the upper 90s. Multiple targets can be taken control of in this way, though the more divided the user's attention is, the easier it is for targets to escape this control
While not an ability per se, the Sharingan user can appear as if they are able to "see the future". First, the user must perfectly mimic every move their opponent makes and possibly their thoughts and words through careful observation. Then, they suggest an action to the opponent through illusion, they can make the opponent use their ability slower with them noticing. With these things done, the user can complete the action even before the opponent does.
In addition to these abilities there are two other skill that a Sharingan user can perform: Izanagi allows the user to warp reality for a short time, changing reality into illusion and illusion into reality, thus escaping death and rewriting destiny; Izanami traps the victim in an infinite loop disregarding the target's five senses, specifically designed as a reprimand for those who would abuse Izanagi. Use of either ability causes the Sharingan with which it is performed to be blinded afterwards, and for that reason Izanami and Izanagi are classified as forbidden skill. The user can only restore there sight by swapping out the already dead sharingan.
Karna already amazing vision, thanks to his race and class, increase and zoomed in on where Momonga had just pointed.
There he saw a woman, a beautiful woman, who's hair was the brightest of gold, braided behind her back and covered with a decorated silver headpiece. Her beautiful and alluring eyes can described as amethyst-colored eyes and they were completely pure and her eyes can steal any man's heart, and her unparalleled figures can draw out a man hidden desires. She possessed a voluptuous build and wondrous beauty that makes others feel that it is sacred. She worse a deep purple dress that have black lines that outline the edges of her dress. The lower half split down slightly from the center exposing her thigh that was mostly covered by dark purple leg stock that then led to a black boot that was covered by a sliver decorated metal. She also wears a silver armor that cover her abdomen and have a matching silver gauntlet, by her waist was a sheath that held a beautiful and decorated sword.

In her stretched out gauntlets hand was a bright light which seem to be guiding her somewhere. This was a 9th tier spell known as [Blessing of Titania]. This spell summoned forth a tiny fairy queen beside the user and it would take them along the least dangerous path to the user's destination.
Jeanne had a worried and scared face like she had just woken from a nightMare.
"...Jeanne…?" Karna hesitantly said in a low and shocked tone.
"There's no mistaking it, that her" Momonga said also ver surprise.
Demiurge who'd had just noticed the woman below them was in shock.
The moment Demiurge saw her he was entranced by her beauty. The pale moonlight shone upon her form, and her amethyst colored eyes that shone like finely cut gemstones under the moonlight. The silver armor that adorned her purple dress glittered. how beautiful was his Goddess.
'th-that lady Jeanne D'arc, one of the supreme beings had returned!'
He felt foolish and ashamed to have distrust in the supreme being. If his lady had return then what if his creator did as well.
Jeanne walked and walked for what seemed like hours to her 'what is going on, this isn't Nazarick and I have the sense of touch and smell and I can't log out!' Jeanne thought was in a panic state right now, she'd only logged in a few seconds before the server shutdown and thought she would be forced-log-out but in a blink of an eye, she was standing in the middle of the woods with all of her five senses and the fact that she can't contact the GM or log out.
"JEANNE!" Karna shouted, trying to get her attention.
Jeanne who'd had heard her avatar name being called looked up to see the avatar of her was-supposed-soon-to-be-husband and one of her friends from Ainz Ooal Gown, Momonga.
"Karna...?" Jeanne's eyes began to be filled with tears as she quickly cast a simple fly magic, which she had tested to see if it the real world or YGGDRASIL, to get up to where Karna and Momonga was.
She'd launch herself into the air at break neck spread and crash into Karna warm embrace. She'd had broken into tears the moment she was in Karna arms "Oh thank god you're here too, I was so scared by the fact that I can't log out and…" Jeanne barely manage to whispers before trailing off.
Karna wrapped his arm around her in order to comforts her, though he wasn't a lawful good man he was still kind to his friend.
"M-my lady are you alright?!" Demiurge said in panic and worried fashion after he got over the shock of seeing another supreme beings.
"Lady Jeanne, are you injured!?" Demiurge hurriedly fly over, his tail trembling in panic and fear.
"Please my lady tell me what is wrong, are you hurt? Did anyone try to hurt you? Please tell us so we can punish them and rectify their mistakes."
Jeanne dried her tears and looked at Demiurge with shocked.
"W-what…?" Jeanne's voice was barely a whisper 'w-what is this...that Ulbert crea...b-but how is he talking!?'
Karna, sensing what was about to happen quickly used [MESSAGE] and quietly tell her 'Jeanne listen to me and play along ok, just trust me, I'll explain everything later, but for right now just play along'
'W-w-wait how did you…'
'It the [MESSAGE] just follow my instruction Jeanne!'
"Um uh...My apologies Demiurge, I didn't mean to worry you, I was just very happy to see Karna and Momonga again that all" Jeanne tried to stay calm and collected but inside she was falling apart, if it wasn't for Karna squeezing her hand tightly and telling her what to say, she would have broken down.
She was by no means a weak woman, but being suddenly transported into what looked like another world without any sign or warning and have all of the powers and equipment from a fantasy game you where playing, tended to be quite overwhelming for a 24 year old girl.
Jeanne can be described as a taciturn and cool girl, but her natural self is a plain and quiet twenty-four-year-old girl. She puts order first, and will wield a sword for the sake of the rules, but fundamentally believes "all people are important and must be treated the same.'' Jeanne could not interact normally with Karna when they are alone unless she maintained a certain distance. She only has one wish, it is to be with Karna. She also doesn't mind if a person wishes for a personal desire. As long as it doesn't affect anyone in a bad way, she would properly respect the wish. During their time together Jeanne develops romantic feelings for Karna, though she refuses to acknowledge them because she has promised to love everyone equally. Jeanne does come around to accepting her feelings and Jeanne confesses her love to him.
Demiurge continue to ask if she was okay as he noticed her trembling voice, it was very obvious that his Goddess was not fully alright. He had asked and she'd blushed beautifully as he continues to ask for her well being.
It was a sight he would never forget.
"Once again, I apologize if I worried you" she said. She could feel her cheek getting hot, it was obvious she was not a very social person. So being ask and carried for by someone was embarrassing for her as she does not know how to talk and articulate her word.
In short she was not good with men, demon or not.
Karna was the only one she was comparable with.
"There is no need to apologize, im just glad that you are safe my lady" Demiurge gave Jeanne a deep and respectful bow slightly satisfied that his goddess was okay.
Inside he sighed a sigh of relief as he got his confirmation that his Lady was safe.
"A-ahem, so what where you two doing?" Jeanne asked as he blush lesson. she was trying desperately to calm down.
"Well as you know we'd have been transported to a new world, so me and Karna were out here to see this new world with our own eyes" Momonga said.
Momonga contacted Jeanne via the [MESSAGE] spell.
'Ok Jeanne I know you have a lot of questions but I need you to play alone, just act like you know everything and play it cool and act like a boss would inform of their employees and by employees I mean the N.P.C!' Momonga pleased.
'Um what...but ...uh ok I'll try' Jeanne said with very little confidence.
"O-oh I see" Jeanne was trying to maintaining a calm expression now.
"My lady, may I ask you where have you been all this time?" Demiurge raises his head and looked at Jeanne.
"W-well when we were about to be teleported into this new world, I-I was out doing a quest, but when I saw Nazarick was disappearing I um quickly used my ring to teleport back in, but I suddenly awoke in the woods and you know the rest" Jeanne mind was running a thousand mile a minute in order to think of what to say and to be as calm as one could be under these circumstances.
"I see, thank you my lady, I am glad you back" Demiurge once again bowed in deep respect.
Karna seeing Jeanne uncomfortable and uneasy about the situation try to change the subject.
"The Sky gilder like jewels in a treasure box doesn't it?" Karna said 'maybe that was a bit to sudden, just to say'
Momonga and Jeanne silently thanked him for ending the awkward silently.
"I believe that this world exists for you to adorns yourself with it infinite riches and we guardians exist to help you do so" Demiurge said.
"Hm, you could be right about that, perhaps we were sent to this land to obtain those treasures for us and along with any other treasure shine beneath them, but to hoard such things would be the height of selfishness, instead we can use those treasure to adore the great tomb of Nazarick and it residents and my friends of Ainz Ooal Gown" Karna said.
"If you wish it we would use all the powers of Nazarick to attain it for you my lord" Demiurge bow.
"Haha, we don't even know what exists in this new world, it is a bit early for a quest, then again...the most enjoyable thing now might be taking over the world..." little did Karna knew but those words would forever change the course of history.
'Who am I kidding, there is no way we can pull that off, I do wonder though am I and Momonga and now Jeanne the only one to get sent into this new world, if there is another player here then maybe we should spread name of Ainz Ooal Gown throughout this world, we were the strongest Heteromorph guild in YGGDRASIL' Karna thought.
While they were talking, Momonga was filling Jeanne in on what was going on through the [MESSAGE] spell.
The small silent was broken when they all heard a rumbling down below. When they looked down they saw, waves of dirt forming in a big wall around a house, the house was the dummy Nazarick that was still being built 1 kilometer away from the real tomb.
"That [EARTH SURGE], he's using a skill to increase his magic range and his class skill to amplify the effect, impressive" Karna commented.
"Agreed" Jeanne And Momonga added.
"My lord, my I ask what are you planning to do?" Demiurge said with curiosity.
"We want to thank Mare for his hard work" Momonga said.
"So Demiurge, what do you think I should give him as a reward?" Karna said.
"I'm sure he'll be happy just to have you speak to him my lord" Demiurge said with certainty.
As the tsunami of dirt formed a wall around Nazarick, Mare than began to repeat this process all over again.
Momonga, demiurge, Karna and now Jeanne landed on the huge wall surrounded the great underground tomb of Nazarick. The moment they landed Mare turned and looked at them and immediately noticed Momonga.
"Oh lord Momonga and lord Karna too!?" Mare said and ran to where the supreme beings were "um why are you here My lord, oh no did I mess up already?!"
how do they know it me?!' Momonga though.
"Not at all Mare, what you are doing is of the utmost importance, it will protect Nazarick from intruders" Karna said with a gentle voice.
"We'd wanted you to know how pleased we are with your work" Jeanne spoke softly.
Mare went silent. He had just noticed Jeanne and was completely shocked. Tears form in his eyes as he ran to Jeanne and hugged her tightly, much to the shock of Jeanne.
"Lady Jeanne you've returned to us!" Mare cried.
It look Jeanne a little bit to get over the sudden hug "um well I'm back now so don't worry Mare" Jeanne smile as she gently pat Mare's head. Demiurge had transform back to his original form and was also smiling the biggest smile he had ever worn.
'She truly deserves the title of beautiful holy saint!'
Thought he maybe one of the more evil denizens of Nazarick, he still care very much for anyone in the tomb, for too disrespect a creation of a supreme beings, no matter how weak they are, it is the same as disrespect the supreme beings themselves.
'S-so cute, bless you Bukubukuchagama -chan!' Jeanne inwardly squeal.
They soon separated from the hug and Momonga walk up to Mare "as thanks for all your hard work Mare, we'd would like you to have this" Momonga outstretched his hand, in Momonga palm was the guild ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.
"THAT THE RING OF AINZ OOAL GOWN, but only supreme beings are allowed to wear it, I can't possibly expect!" Mare said.
"There is no need to panic Mare, moving between Nazarick floors can be very difficult because all teleporting magic are blocked, so this will allow you to complete your work faster, now take this ring Mare and serve Nazarick well" Momonga said gentle but commanding voice.
Mare was hesitant but took the ring and slowly put it over his gloved finger "thank you so much Lord Momonga I'll be sure to work extra EXTRA hard for you and the honor of Nazarick and the supreme beings, I swear it I'll be sure to be deserving of such a gift!" Mare said happily.
"Then we are depending on you Mare" Jeanne patted Mare head.
"But...hm by the way my lord I was wondering why are dress like that?" Mare questioned.
"Um...well…"Momonga had no answer and was quickly trying to think of one and fast.
"It for our sake Mare" a gentle and sweet voice like a mother spoke "it like a disguise, if we knew he was here watching us we'd would stop working to praised him, then nothing would be done"
Black feathers flow gentle down from the star lit night sky and Albedo appears, her raven black hair flow gracefully in the wind and she was dressed in her white dress and had a gentle smile on her. The moonlight only helped in adding to her beauty, Albedo gentle land and walked up to Momonga.
"Albedo, why are you here?" Demiurge said.
"When I sense another present that was on par with Lord Karna, I had a feeling that another supreme beings had returned, I'd had to see who it was" Albedo said. She'd turned to Jeanne and kneeled "welcome back my Lady Jeanne D'Arc" Albedo said.
"Uh i-it is good to be back in Nazarick, thank you Albedo" Jeanne said shyly. She was not used to anyone bowing or kneeling in front of her like this, so this was quite embarrassing for Jeanne.
Albedo rose from her kneeling, at this point did Albedo saw Mare ring. For a second everyone could feel a chill running down their spine, but as quick as it came, it was gone.
"Is something wrong my lord?" Albedo Innocent smile never leaves her face as she turns to Momonga who was terrified at what had just happened.
'Um did I miss something?' Jeanne asked.
'I'll tell you later when we are alone' Karna said.
Um n-no, n-nothing at all…" Momonga said and turned to Mare "right then I'll let you return to your work Mare"
"Oh sure, then I'll get right to it my lord please excuse me" Mare turned and walked off.
"Albedo, I should give you one as well" Momonga said.
"Give me one, of the lords?" Albedo said gentle smile.
Momonga quickly extend his hand and the guild ring appears "this will make your work as guardians overseer must easier, use it wisely" Momonga said. Albedo slowly extended her hand and gentle grab the ring as if it were marked out of glass and slip it on her ring finger.
"Thank you very much my lord" Albedo was entire body was shaking and her mouth was quivering.
'I suggest we get out of here' Karna [MESSAGED].
'Agreed' Momonga said.
'Why?' Jeanne asked Innocently with much confusion.
