Momonga was in his mother's room he cared for his mother and he loved his mother very much, he was finally going to ask her a question that him nagging him since he was 14 he was 18 now the age he will look like for the rest of eternity. His father the Emperor did not let him around women except his cousins Blane and his sister Shalteer Bloodfallen Gown II. But that was the problem he had fallen for Shalteer when he reached puberty but his mother hated her mother. Man, he thought Sebas's children 15 and guy he was part succubus meaning his libido needed a healthy output before he starts killing people.
"Mother" he asked in the nicest voice he had," Albedo looked at her son, for he is the embodiment of all her accomplishments, she might have conquered nations, wiped out armies, but her son was her single greatest achievement along with her marriage to the Emperor.
"Albedo smiled a half bully smile and a normal smile to put Momonga in his place" Although Momonga was immortal she was still his mother. Ainz gave little love and much instruction to Momonga . Even though he loved his father he was a momma's boy and would kill anyone who messed with his mother stay father. The only man he feared. He thought about how his father would duel him until he couldn't move and then heal him. Eventually his father taught him his powers. He was the greatest magic user along having the strongest physical attacks. His class was [God of Magic] his latent abilities fear, awe, worship, zealot and death.
First fear would put any normal human in absolute terror stemming from their religious belief. Second was Awe which meant the very site of Momonga made one feel insignificant and see the glory of Momonga. Third was worship this made the person worship the God of Magic and praise his name which made them completely docile. Next zealot will make people into religious fanatics for Momonga and kill or do whatever he wished. Last, because he was the God of Magic he could kill any low to medium level creature and if they were a high level creature they would die but slowly over days. Momonga had absolute power of Magic. Momonga did not know the extent of hidden power but Ainz hid his true nature until he was older.
"Mother when should I get married and when I do who should be my partner?" Albedo smiled because he knew about Shallter's daughter.
"Now son I love you but let us wait we might find another God." Momonga rolled his eyes he never thought that was going to happen.
"Now before I forgot your father wants you at the 3pm ministry meeting so go before you are late."
"Yes mother" he replied. Another God he thought his father mother were the only Gods, Uncle Sebas and Dracus whom he was very found were God-kin so was Shalteers children. Momonga did not know it yet but he sat on top of a lonely hill of power.
He was told when he was four that he would get to see all of Nazarick but there was some turmoil so the trip waited until the Young Master was 16 he was ever so excited he could see Princess Shelter the Second of the North Eastern nation States. They would leave in a few hours after ministry meeting so he would go visit Demiurge who never married or had a legitimate heir his father was fine with this as long as it was his wishes. When he asked him why he said he wished to guide the new prince. That made his father very happy and appointed him his royal advisor for life, Then he would go say goodbye to Cocytus who also never married as far as we knew he was the only Glacier God in this world, for his service his father offer to create him a wife but his answer was the same he wanted to serve the prince, his father could not refuse and made him his military and combat advisor for life. He loved his two uncles very much but he loved Sebas Tian Gown and Tsuare the most. There was a gentleness to them they he just could not understand especially Tsuare. What the fascination with Tsuare was that she was human and he had very little contact with other humans.
To the dismay of his mother and the joy of his father Momonga saw humans as fascinating creatures that had short lives and made decisions based on feelings unlike cold logic like he did, this meant that he saw humans indifferently, he did not hate them like his mother, he did not love them either but had a fascination with them much like his father. This was not a popular viewpoint in Nazarick as even the maids would tell him what lowly disgusting creatures they were. He kept his opinion to himself but would often talk to his father about humans and how they lived. His father explained that they would make rash decisions because they lived short lives and did not live long enough to learn the lessons immortals did. He was still young but in one hundred years he would understand what he was talking about. Thinking about this Momonga unconsciously opened a portal.
Momonga did not even have to recite spell he thought of what he wanted and it happened he opened a portal to Sebas's room as he realized that Cocytus and Demiurge would be at the meeting at 3pm so he could say goodbye to them, Momanga walked through the portal and ended up right before Sebas's door. He straightened his tie and military uniform and knocked on the door. He heard, "Just a minute!" in a female voice on the other side, suddenly the door opened it was Tsuare her eyes shot wide open and started to bow, Momonga placed his hand on her shoulder, "Stand up dear Aunt I have to many that fear me tell me not you as well?" Tsuare cracked and big smile, she could see that he inherited whatever good that was in Ainz hear that allowed her to live." "My Master you are like a mighty oak look how big you have gotten!" It was true he was six foot four 250 pounds of pure muscle. "My dear Aunt is Sebas in I wish to bid him farewell before the Empire fealty trip?" Yes Tsuare said, smiling looking not looking him in the eyes she feared his black and red undead eyes, they had the power to read one's mind and to break mortal's souls through a sort of demonic baptism. Most did not know this but most of the divine power of a real God was in his eyes as they had the power to get truth, foretell the future, and kill if needed.
"Come in, come in let me fetch Sebas for you!" As he stepped into their luxurious room in the Black Castle of the Capital of Nazarick he noticed how large it was. One could fit a full size mansion in their living quarters but by decree of his father all God-kin residing in the Capital had to live in the black castle as it became to be known. Suddenly, Dracus ran up to Momonga and hugged him from behind. "Big brother Momonga are you here to play with me today?" He asked with wide eyes. "Well I was here to say goodbye to your father but I could stay around a bit for you my little lizard hehehe!" Dracus pouted he was not a lizard he was ¾ proud dragon race and would serve as king under the flag of Nazarick. Since they were around the same age Dracus considered Momonga his big brother and even looked up to him for getting him out of trouble, he worship the ground Momonga walked on and he knew it so he had to tread very carefully because he knew how he acted would affect the lives of millions in the dragon kingdom.
A familiar voice came from the door, "Young master it is always a delight to see you!" Momanga loved Sebas he was the closest to having a Grandfather but he knew they always had to be wary of becoming too familiar. "I would not think of leaving four months without saying goodbye Uncle Sebas!" As Sebas came to give a bow Momonga grabbed him and hugged him, there was no one around who would dare tell of breach of protocol. Sebas smiled and a tear feel from his face. He never imagined that this day would happen. "Sebas" Momonga said to break him out of the spell I have also come for another important matter. "What is my lord?" The Dragonic Queen has taken ill some do not know how long she will survive." "I see Sebas said as he remembered that in two years he would be crowned prince." Sebas how much do you want your family to stay together? "Master?" Sebas said. "How much?" "More than anything in the world!" Momonga said, "This is not from my father but me and less you know the better the Dragonic queen has been a bit of a wild card so I will say this she will most likely die this year this information is Nazarick Code Red(assassination)," Sebas was shocked, a young man casually talking about such matters it pained him inside but he was doing it for him. Sebas also knew that the plan was in motion and nor it was his place to say anything. "Yes my lord I thank you. "This means Dracus will be crowned king within the month you shall guide him and you should get ready to move to the new castle." So we will all be moving to the Dragonic Vassal State? Yes, Momonga nodded.
"Ah enough of this political intrigue let us play a game Dracus I have an hour can you beat big brother today? Dracus smiled along with Tsuare and Sebas the moment they feared in two years was over and now they can always be a family. Momonga is truly Ainz's son he was always able to read his thoughts and always took care of the things he loved, but he was also scared of him when teaching him moral code Momonga just did not get much of it, if the end justified the means then he should do also by the age of 10 Momonga could already kill him in a fight if he did not give his hand to hand combat training seriously. This thought made Sebas shuddered at what was going to transpire at the Dragonic Kingdom they should make preparations to move immediately." Sebas I realize I am only 16 but do you desire more children, what I meant is The White Empress my mother says that no greater satisfaction than to see two people in love create a life. "Sebas thought about it for a second and said, "One son is good enough more than these old bones deserve! "Uncle Sebas I thought I would tell you that Tsuare is pregnant with a half dagoniod child, I promise I did not use my magic it is a miracle as we know it should not happen. Sebas was at a lack for words how could this have happened hybrid cannot exist in this world? That is not true with dragonoids he remembered the queen is only 1/3 so for some reason it possible.
"Sebas as you know I am a God and I have all knowledge of death which also means I have the knowledge of life because death is the ultimate power. To make death is simple to bring one back to life is difficult something I have not fully mastered but I am close. Even though we can bring those back to life, death still takes a toll of experience to revive a being. This means that death will always take a price no matter how much you try to deny it." I can see the future through the lifelines and majors events that happen to them mainly life and death. I can see the lifelines of people because of my power over death. It is true I can bring anyone back from death willing or unwilling and restore them to a perfect state they were before unlike any other. That being said it takes an enormous amount of energy of me to do so and their lies the cost of death even for the God of Magic. It is true that I have an unlimited amount of magical power but this magical power had to come from somewhere right? Therefore the cost of life is the lifeblood of the Ancient one the World Tree."
"Ah yes your father and Fludder graciously shared the knowledge of the higher realm we came from to the people I hear all the Temples in the known world have changed to this believe." Sebas Said.
Momonga smiled and sat down while motioning Dracus to set up a game that was just like checkers in front of him. Dracus already had the box ready and was waiting for Momonga to say it was OK to bring over when he did he ran over quickly and set up the game.
"What color Big Brother?"
"Black of course!" Momonga said with a smile.
Momonga held up a game piece to illustrate what he was trying to say. "Now everything has a lifeline and is subject to decay over time except for immortals who constantly replace the entropy within their bodies with mana, their lives simply just keep going, but say this piece in my hand is a person or say a thousand people die at once in a similar place one can deduce that something significant will happen at that time and place. This is how my divine sight works I can see that deaths of all beings within the time I wish to see. Figuring how to focus is the hard part that is what I have trained with my father and Fludder to focus my mind on deaths and figure out the future from them."
"Thus how you were able to see that I will have more children!" Exclaimed an excited Tsaure.
"Exactly and I have only been able to do so with accuracy these last month's so I naturally peered into your future and found out and had to tell you before I go."
This is also how I foresaw the revolt of the Dragon Queen and other things. So I was given the authority to tell you this because you need to ready you family for the move and the coronation of the new king. Dracus looked up and smiled, "Does this mean I will finally get to work with you?"
"I think so there is still much to do and you are considered a national treasure due to your power so soon you will be." Momonga replied.
Dracus smiled and looked down to see that Momonga was making his winning move. Dracus frowned, "Can't you let me just win once?" Momonga got up and said, "I will tell you what my father told me when I was training if I let you win you will not enjoy the first time you taste real victory!" Momonga bowed flashed a victory sign and winked at Dracus and then stepped through a portal, this was Momongas way he would often forget to say goodbye because he would think where he would want to go and a portal would open to his will and he would walk through it before thinking about it.
Sebas looked at his son and smiled and said, "Son you are a very fortunate man to serve under the son of the God Emperor, Momonga you must serve him with all your heart and never go against the name of Gown for this rule is absolute" Dracus looked up and nodded while he thought that one day he will be by his side and make himself useful this desire permeated every fiber of Dracus's being he was as result as his father the Iron Butler. This is why he on the day of his coronation he became known as the Iron Dragon King Dracus Tian Gown.
Momonga walked into the House of Lords chamber connected to the House of Commons. The House of Commons consisted of powerful noble traders to adjust economic prices on goods and other such tasks they have no power other than that. The House of Lords had all the Guardians and then all the Kings of the vassal states along with Jincriv, Ainz favorite human he was a tribune and not a lord but was allowed to attend. Ainz would make his opening remarks but it was then he who would give the speech. Demiurge went over what to say and since Momonga had a photographic memory that would suffice. He took his seat at the head of the table with his father and the White Queen his mother and waited at the Lord's trickled in throughout the Empire most thought this has to do with all the vassal states pledging loyalty to the Red eyed God of Magic, humans Momonga thought they love long names.
Momonga watched as all the rulers who were imbued with some sort of power of Nazarick this made is so many of them were human but had inhuman features such as tails or they were vampires or heteromorphic being that looked human but could change into werewolves or other such beings. They all filed into the 41 seats of power the same number of the supreme beings of old. Momonga watched as he grew up and herd the stories from his father of the God realm and how his father's power grew over the earth that he tried to make it more like Yyggdrsil. He thought that his father must have been homesick but that was not the case it was one of the last things that reminded Ainz that he was once a regular human man. Over time Momonga began to dislike the stories and longing of his father had of the Old realm as he called it. He also had no attachments to the Tomb of Nazarick that all the God-kin held so dear. He knew that the maids and all the servants if given a choice would rotate service to the tomb and prefer to stay. They saw living on the surface as a burden and a service to his father but these were the old ways and when he became Emperor he would try to break the old way of thinking. He was lost in this thought as the last member of the House of Lords found his seat and the traditional oath was being said before the meeting to begin.
"We worship and serve the one true God Emperor Ainz Ooal Gown the God of Life and Death. We worship and serve the most beautiful White Empress Albedo Ooal Gown. We worship and serve the God Prince Momonga Albedo Ooal Gown. In a dark world the Empire of Nazarick is the light, a holy nation dissented from the Holy Tree…."
The oath went on for another five minutes, and every year it got longer as the accomplishments of the Nation grew. Momonga was uncharacteristically impatient today as he was going on his first official mission to kill a traitor and prove himself as the heir to the throne and be placed in charge of the nation's military forces. As the oath ended Momonga father stood up with his staff and struck it on the ground three times.
Ainz still hated giving speeches but no longer got nervous like he once did years ago as he had been undead so long that mere things as this were trivial. Suziki Satori had played the part of Ainz Ooal Gown for so long had turned into what he wanted to be for the NPC's he had so become Ainz that he did not even think about his old life and never wondered if he was living in a game. Emperor Ainz held up his hand and motioned for everyone to sit. "As you know the Royal Fealty Tour starts tomorrow but we also have a matter of importance. We have a nation that wishes to break the peace of our land that we have fought for so diligently. If you look around the Envoy from the Dragonic Vassal State is not here this is because they wish to leave. Thus we called this meeting to give them one last chance to swear their loyalty to Nazarick but have refused so I will send my son and his guards to depose the queen and we shall put my own nephew Dracus Tian Gown as the new king.
"All hail Ainz Ooal Gown! All hail Ainz Ooal Gown! All hail Ainz Ooal Gown!" The assembly cried as the House of Lords had no say but was simply a gathering of all the leaders so the Emperor could intimidate and assert his power to all his appointed leaders in one place.
We will be visiting all your lands on the appointed day of arrival the capital cities streets should be full, declare the day a holiday and feast and make merry. I want all to see my son Momonga the prince of Nazarick the first and only divine incarnation in this World. He is your God and will be your Emperor! Ainz shouted as her motioned for his son to stand up.
"All hail Momonga Albedo Ooal Gown the God Prince of Nazarick!" Everyone in the room shouted.
"Now my son come forward and receive your weapon that shall make you the Guardian of Nazarick" As Ainz said this he reached into his pocket dimension and pulled out a jet black staff. "This weapon had been made from all the collected relics of this world and crafted into one weapon, the blade is made from the razors edge and the demonic sword held by a female of Blue Rose adamantine adventurer, the hilt made from melted relics the grip made from Downfall of Castle and Country and the pommel made from the fangs of the Chaos Dragon. A weapon fitting a God Prince" Ainz said as he held the weapon out for his son to take."
Momonga walked up and took the weapon it looked like a black hole that no light returned from with his right hand and struck the bottom of the weapon three times on the ground just as his father did. Ainz sat down and Momonga began to speak his part as they had practiced.
"As I take this weapon as also take up my responsibility of being a guardian of the Empire of Nazarick and I shall strike down any enemy that tries to disrupt the peace and prosperity of this world and expand the Empire into the lands our adventurers so bravely go forth and sacrifice their lives to find new lands and people to share the light that is Nazarick!" Momonga shouted as thunderous applause followed. Everything had gone exactly as his father had said he went back to sit down as he made his way to his seat he made eye contact with his mother. She was smiling as one who had conquered the world and could not be any prouder. He smiled back at his mother and winked at her quickly her countenance changed to that of a cold and aloof aristocrat, Momonga new that he should not have given any excessive displays of affection to his mother in public and his mother did this as a way to keep him in line as well as not embarrass her.
Ainz saw what had transpired and stood back up and said, "Now we shall feast and tomorrow you shall go back to your lands and prepare enjoy yourself at the capital this night. Ainz said and sat down next to Albedo and watched all the waiters and waitresses bring food to the hall. Banquets were usually never held here only meetings but this was a special occasion so Ainz allowed it this once.
As the feasting began Ainz looked at Albedo who was looking over the crowd trying not to have a distasteful look on her face as she thought humans as no more than breeders and thought them walking the halls of her castle was covering it in filth. She would have the maids scrub excessively everywhere a human or other lower lifeform went she was thinking as Ainz spoke to her interrupting her thought, "My Empress I have heard the rumors but I know now it is true that the boy favors you more than I?"
Albedo did not know what to say she thought that she had made some fatal error in raising the child that she would be held responsible for. "Umm my lord I think our son is fond of us both…"
"Hahahaha! I am only joking my fair Albedo for it is only natural for a boy to love his mother when she is the most beautiful women in the world. It is true I was tough with the boy but you gave him something neither of us had when we came of age. "What is that my Emperor?"
Ainz heartily spoke "Love my darling love, you do not know it but he was loved by you and by that shall understand what you consider vermin much better than we both ever will, you a demon and I am undead!" This made Albedo both happy and angry as the thought of her son interacting with human females went through her mind. This was a thought that she always feared and why he was always kept away from humans his age.
"Empress your heart betrays you and I can see your thoughts and our son will marry who we say for he is an obedient son so rest your heart at ease and try to enjoy yourself." Ainz said as smiling as Albedo turned red and looked down. Even though she had been married to Ainz for years she still revered him as one of the 41 Supreme Beings and the only one to stay with them to guide them. This was a gulf that would eventually be overreached and Ainz knew this and did not give up or wanting to be equals with the NPC's that his friends had left so he adopted all of them as his children and faced up to making Albedo the way he created and gave her what she needed. His life was mainly for the sole purpose of fulfilling the NPC's desire that his friends created once he faced and accepted this fact the last major part of what kept him human left and his undead nature took over. He became ruthless and inhuman in what he did to make his NPC's happy in his conquest of the new world and he lost himself along the way.
Momonga sat nervously watching his parents talk he took his new weapon named "despair" and put it into a pocket dimension until he needed it which would be soon he knew the orders would come soon and he would go with the Nazarick Secret Police with Uncle Demiurge, Jealously and adventurous and go to the Dragonic kingdom to depose the queen and put his "little brother" Dracus in his place. As he was deep in thought a bottle slammed down in front of him he was partially startled and looked up to see who it was, it was a very drunk Tribune Jincriv Sapoto who had one women who he was sure was a temple prostate in his arm and a bottle of wine in the other.
"Young Prince if I did not know any better you look as if you are nervous, could it be it be that a God could be nervous the son of the brilliant, genius, Ainz Ooal Gown who defeated me in one short month after I met him? The Tribune said with a slight slur in his speech. "You know my Prince that your father is a brilliant man er I mean God and if you are half as smart as him whom I suspect you are smarter you my liege shall be brilliant!"
Ainz watching all that transpiring in front of him quickly motioned for waiters to guide him back to his seat while say, "My dear Tribune and friend I cannot await our trip to your lands I see you are enjoying yourself, what of your heir shall I arrange something?
Tribune Jincriv Sapoto looked over at his Emperor and said, "My grace I will take my leave as you know my one weakness is marriage and I know you would have me wed in one month." He said as he took a drink of wine and staggered to his seat at the banquet pushing the waiters away that were trying to help him find his seat.
Emperor Ainz looked at Momonga and smiled with his mask even though his facial features did not change. "Now you know why he is my favorite human he was always is very entertaining, Kekeke!" He Cackled. Empress Albedo had a stare that would strip paint off the wall, she was not called the White Empress just because of her name and her complexion but also because she was a cold as ice, people in the place were more afraid of her than of the Emperor.
"He is an absolute disgusting pig! Did you see who he brought to this banquet; I would have him whipped at least for the way he spoke to you!" She curtly said.
"Hohoho! Did you hear you mother son there was a time she would have summoned a weapon and tried to cut him in half but I suppose a whipping is improvement!"
Momonga sensed that his father was in a good mood he did not know if it was an act or if he was truly happy because he had never seen his father laugh that much in one year much less one night. He had heard that when his father was married he was turned mortal for one night and he got drunk and was in rare form that night, but that was all he had ever heard were stories. Momonga wonder if was really that happy for him coming of age, he never showed that much affection towards him, only when he was very little after that he was a very stern teacher always giving him lessons and advice on how to be a leader.
As if he could read Momonga mind Ainz looked at his son, "Momonga come take a walk with me there is something we need to discuss." Ainz said as he stood up.
"Yes sir" Momonga said as he jumped up as fast as he could and stood at the right side of his father.
