I am completely going back through the chapters I wrote for my Green-Eyed Demon story, and I will be adding details and taking all of the complaints into consideration. Expect a Christmas update special from me on many stories!


(Every reviewer up to 7:00am Pacific Time on the 19th): 'Hey, Grasp-Heart is a Tier IX spell, not Tier V!' Yes, I know, I put that in, but it wouldn't work with the armor, so i removed it. An explanation for personalities with Truth and Ainz: I see Truth as being serious and following the script when judging someone and interacting with someone who performed human transmutation. However, he would not be that serious all that time, and he would be more laid back around people that he is equal to or friends with, so he and Ainz are chummy now, since they can relate to each other. Expect more hangout scenes like it.

Momon the Lich King: He has penetration resistance, but Lust's ultimate spear bypasses all armor, so I took that to include buffs against said damage as well.

Killer-Kog: I don't believe the armor is made of magic exactly, but rather he uses magic to create the item, which is tier 3 to 4 mythril armor, and it is stylized however he wants. It is made with magic, not made of magic. It is the best description I could get, and many people told me so, so we're going with that.

Dragoon 596: It still kills her, but if she does, it brings her back. It also regenerates itself after it broke, and I was being generous with the amount of souls lost because of it. Even though she can die easily, it doesn't matter how quickly if she just comes back from using souls. The spell was weaker because the armor. Just wanted to put it in there because it's his favorite spell.

RyuujiVantek: No pairing, since he is an undead, and he doesn't really have any emotional attachments outside of maybe Nazarick, and he has emotional suppression.

Killer-kog: I never specified when he is from in the Overlord Plot. Right now, he has knowledge from Truth, his own abilities, and some almost immortal beings to kill. I enjoy Marie Sue stories, but that isn't what I exactly want this to be. Next chapter, Ainz gets some alone time for a little to, you know, actually progress without the chance of blowing his cover. Thanks for letting me know.

Shogun of Shorrow: Changed it for you.

Final Note: I think this chapter is grammatically correct, and I didn't forget to put in any scenes.


Over The Xingese Desert

The wind whistled by as Ainz flew over the land. Thanks to him remembering the [Flight Charm] he had, Ainz was now able to fly with the armor on. Fortunately, he remembered to place {Invisibility} and {Perfect Unknowable} over himself before leaving his apartment. He set out a course East, towards the desert he had read so much about. He looked down at the humans below, and sighed as he took in the sight. 'Truth, you're world is rather nice, isn't it? I can see why you would want help in protecting it.' He flew onward, finally reaching the edge of Amestris, and landing far enough away that no one could see him, and the Amestrian border was a black line on the Horizon.

All around him were sand dunes, and the moon was overhead. He found a suitable location a few days before the incident with Lust and had practiced to see if his idea would work. The location he chose, now that he knew the plan would work, didn't have too many dunes. There were enough, however, to actually make it difficult to find the same location again, especially if the sand was blown around by the wind. Ainz raised one invisible bone hand and pointed it at the sand. "{Meteor Fall}, {Triple Maximize Magic}!" he chanted.

Far above him, a speck appeared in the sky, which he knew to be a magic circle, which created three large meteors, due to his {Triple Maximize Magic}. He flew back, out of the area of impact, and watched from afar. The large flaming meteors fell at terminal velocity, and slammed into the ground below, shattering and leaving an enormous crater in the ground. Due to the impact of the meteors being focused in a downward movement, the crater was around fifteen feet deep. It was just enough where the sand within it would not be affected too much by natural powers. Ainz stood in the middle of the crater, and raised the [Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown].

The brown stone upon the staff glowed as he roared, "{Summon: Primal Earth Elemental}!". A wind built up, and the said was pulled into it as the Elemental appeared. It turned to him, the sand swirling.

"Excavate a large space under the ground, around thirty five meters on each side, with a 10x10 base, and stabilize it so it will not collapse. I will be securing the area, and if anyone comes nearby, you are to conceal yourself and your work." he ordered. The Earth Elemental, being a high enough level to practically be sentient, nodded and moved through the crater. It hovered at the center of it and began sinking into the ground, transporting earth and sand away via its natural abilities. As it progressed, sand was torn away at a rapid pace and was packed in with more sturdy dirt and stone created by the Elemental's own body. It was a level 87 Elemental, and the highest tier of them as well. Due to its superior strength and ability, the Earth Elemental was doing a lot of work faster than if Ainz summoned a group of worker undead to do the job for him. Finally, Ainz cast a major speed buff on the Elemental, tripling its speed for a short time. The speed boost should speed up the hole enough to dig what he wanted in minutes.

While the Elemental was working away, Ainz moved to the top of the nearby dune to get a view of the area. Ainz had sacrificed some of his Exp to summon the elemental, but he could easily refill it with the countless Exp potions stored in his dimensional pocket. He raised an arm to the sky. "{Summon Low-Tier Undead: Undead Vulture}, {Triple Maximize Magic}!" A small magic circle appeared, and three vulture flew out. Its appearance was one of a vulture, but it was missing feathers, and many bones were showing. From afar it would be nigh impossible for any normal human to differ it from another vulture.

"Go, patrol the area. Alert me if anyone approaches this area, and stop them if they attempt to investigate." he intoned. The birds squawked, and flew into the air. The summons did not have a limited lifespan, and should stay in existence until killed or Ainz dismisses them.

He turned to the Hole, and saw the deep pit that had been dug out. Ainz nodded to himself, and checked to see if he was missing anything. Confident that he was not, Ainz cast {Create Fortress}.

{Create Fortress} is a 10th-Tier spell that summons forth a mighty fortress or a 30 meters tall tower out of thin air. In YGGDRASIL, anyone on the same team as the creator could open those doors with a touch. All others would have to break them down. Ainz created it out there so it would be within the 10x10x35 hole he had his Primal Elemental dig out. Ainz had used the spell often when he was with his comrades back in the Guild, often hiding in it. They used it so often that Ainz had used a cash item that changed how the building he spawned looked so it wouldn't be just a bland castle or Tower, but also have decorations they chose on the inside. It would be easy to defend, with the enemy being unable to enter, and there is another opening on top for aerial access. Ainz planned to have the top opening open up to the surface of the desert, with the rest underground. The top would be covered with sand, and would be hidden.

The entire hole shimmered, and a tower came into view, complete with strong fortified walls and a large reinforced door at the base. The hole it was in was pretty snug, but there was walking space around it of a few meters. The entire structure was intended to be either a quick location for safety when traveling but it also was used for guilds just starting out, since it had many floors and quite a lot of room, but not as much as a dungeon would have if a guild took it over. Ainz flew down to the base of the tower, and in front of the doors. He moved to clap his hands, but paused. Then he started laughing aloud before his suppression could kick in. "How could I not have thought of this?" he wondered aloud. "The circle less transmutation requires you to make a circle with your body, but it doesn't require that circle to be make with your hands!"

Enthusiastic from this breakthrough, he touched his middle bone to the thumb bone on the same hand, and then pressed it to the wall of compressed sand. Alchemical lightning spread as Ainz transferred sand from the surface to cover the top of the tower, and fill in the top couple feet of the hole. Before the transmutation could end, causing the sand to drop, Ainz flicked the wall, transmuting the walls and floor into highly dense sandstone, practically unbreakable by any non-alchemical or magical method. Now the surface would look the same, unless someone knew he was there.

Ainz turned to the elemental. "Dig a tunnel system, specifically about 5 kilometers in that direction, and when it is fully stabilized, stop and return here. If you hit another tunnel, stop digging and close up the intersection, so they cannot track you. Once you have returned, then dig close to the surface, but do not break it. Instead, patrol the tunnels and ensure the structural integrity of it does not change. Anyone who is not undead, or appears human must be terminated if they enter without me." The elemental nodded its non-existent head, and moved away, tunneling into the wall.

Ainz pushed open the pristine door, and entered the tower. He walked in, and observed his surroundings. The tower, his new headquarters out of Amestris, had a red carpet interior, with flowers placed along the sides in niches, and empty decorative suits of armor with poleaxes standing at attention along the side. The walls had maroon banners depicting the symbol of Ainz Ooal Gown in a dark black. He sighed in nostalgia as he remembered the good times, and how his friends used to use a summoned building like this to hide from PKers and to prepare for bosses. He reached into his dimensional space, and pulled out a massive painting, and put it up on the wall facing the entrance to the tower. The painting depicted he and his friends from YGGDRASIL in their player forms, from Peroroncino and Blue Planet to Touch-Me and Bukubukuchagama, as well as Ainz, back when he went by Momonga. They were all standing in front of the throne in Nazarick, and was a screenshot from right after they had taken control of the Dungeon. Later on they had paid money to make it into an actual painting that looked realistic, and pooled together their money to make it into an item. After that, many other players began doing similar things, finally the devs made it into an item in the game which you could place any image into so long as it was appropriate.

He continued to the next floor, which was stone and had empty platforms where one could place the required crafting and magical stations to create new items of various kinds. There were a few things Ainz wanted to make, but he wanted to check out the rest of the building first. The third floor was a room for storing mounts, and some other pets. The fourth floor is a sleeping quarters, meant for beings that require rest, which fortunately, the Guild was made of Grotesque creatures, which do not require sleep. The fifth and sixth floors are a storage room, and the seventh floor are empty, and had not been used in the past. The eighth floor is an arena for sparring, and the 9th is a throne room, because it was cool, and they used it to look out over the lands.

Satisfied that the tower had not changed since he had last used it, Ainz went to the seventh floor, and pulled out a few items. The first of which was his {Player Editor}, which was a cash item that allows a player to customize his or her race and skills as if they were starting anew, but at almost a new level. Ainz also pulled out a case of 32 Medium Exp Potions. He had a few dozen crates stored in his dimension, ready at a moment's notice for his team if they required massive Exp summons or to level up an NPC. He reached into the storage and pulled out the piece of metal Barry's soul was attached to.

"Whoa... that was a crazy experience! Just what was that?" Barry asked as he came out of the dimensional pocket. Barry whistled, somehow. "Wow, fancy! This place is nice!" he continued. "Are you a skeleton? That's sweet! Although it means I can't cut you up." he finished, grumbling.

Ainz set down Barry upon the floor, and turned to the soul. "I'll tell you later. I am here to get you a new body. What would you prefer?"

"Ooh!" Barry exclaimed. "I want something strong, of course, but I don't want just any old body, I want something good for chopping!"

Ainz ran through the list of possible summons he could try and attach Barry's soul to, and found one that was just too perfect.

"I think I know what you should be," Ainz began. "but first, let me tell you the story of Jack the Ripper. Jack the Ripper was much like you, killing people he found beautiful, and went on a killing spree, murdering at least five people in the city. There were definitely more deaths, but they were not located. They never caught Jack the Ripper, and to this day, they say he is still out there. SO!" Barry's soul jumped as he was startled by Ainz's loudness. "I have the ability to summon Jack the Ripper, or at least a very close representation of him. Would you like to become Jack the Ripper?" Ainz asked onimously.

Barry was silent for a few seconds, then replied. "It sounds great! So many people must know about him! Can I see him?"

Ainz nodded, and put a mental note to refill on Exp potions later. "{Summon Mid-Tier Undead: Jack the Ripper}!" he intoned. A magic circle shone on the ground, and Jack the Ripper appeared, giggling to itself. flexing its clawed hands. "Wait here until further orders." Ainz commanded it. Jack nodded, and stood still, fidgeting slightly as it maintained its giggling. Ainz held up Barry's soul, and frowned. 'How am I to connect the soul to a sentient monster?' Ainz wondered. "I guess I need some assistance..." he muttered, casting a {Gate} spell.

"Whoa... what is that?!" Barry asked, amazed at the portal. Ainz shook his head.

"I'll explain afterwards." he said, walking into the portal with Jack the Ripper.


Truth's Domain

"Almost... got... it..." Truth said, balancing a final card on the tower of cards he made out of a few thousand cards. He had been focused on it for a few hours, in his time, and was almost done. He was so focused in fact, that he didn't notice his surroundings.

So, Truth was rather surprised when he looked up to see a portal appear in front of him, completely different from the gate that normally appeared and opened when someone did human transmutations.

"What..." Truth began, moving to protect his pyramid from the portal. He leaned in, his blank face practically brushing the surface. As he leaned in to inspect it, someone stepped out, and their heads collided. Truth was knocked onto his bottom in midair, knocking over his tower. He looked up in rage, frustrated that he had lost so much work in a few seconds. He glanced up to see Ainz who had his head stuck through the portal. "What are you doing here?" Truth grumbled out, confused. "There's no way that you would have done all of what I asked by now. Also, you knocked over my card tower..."

Ainz shrugged as he stepped through the portal. "Well, now you have two more options for what to do when you're bored: clean up the cards, or rebuild the tower. I could have finished the task at any time, simply blow up the entire city in one go, then kill the survivors, but you probably didn't want me to ruin your country and most of the world. I'm hypothetically as powerful as you, remember?"

Truth rolled his eyes, or at least looked like he did. It was hard to tell with a completely white face. "We still should have a spar of some kind to prove that." He mentioned. "How has it been in Amestris? I haven't been able to see a few events you were in, most likely the major ones because of Homunculi blocking my vision somehow. Also, how was meeting the Al-che-mist?" Truth said casually, leaning back to get comfortable.

"It was interesting. Someone should get that ball of insecurities a psychologist.

"So, what brings you to my realm, besides showing off the fact that you can bypass the prerequisites to get here?"

"Well, the spell I used is called Gate, so I assume it has the same capabilities as the gate you have, simply easier and with no side effects. Also, I need your help with souls." Ainz held up Barry's soul.

"And what do you have in mind? I assume you wish to get him a body? You would simply need to attach it to armor of the same material using Alchemy." Truth said.

"In most cases, perhaps, but I wish to give him a body I already have a soul in. I don't want to know what will happen if I try using Alchemy to do this, and I don't have any spells that would help. Actually, let me grab it." Ainz offered. He stuck his skull back through the portal, and said something on the other side. As he stepped back, a tall lean figure stepped through. The first thing Truth saw was clawed hands, with fingernails for blades. Then an overcoat with purple trim and white buttons upon a slender body. The rest came through soon after. The creature was wearing a mask with two yellow four pointed stars for eyes, and a grin engraved on the mask. It stood at attention, slightly hunched over and giggling to itself.

Truth observed it, inspecting the summon carefully. "It appears to be alive, yet the body is most certainly dead. I assume this is your doing?"

Ainz nodded. "Of course. It is an undead Jack the Ripper. According to its abilities, it is a level 30 summon. Some summons are so strong they use my experience, a representation of my power, but..." he reached into his dimensional pocket and grabbed a few minor Exp potions. After chugging them down, he placed the bottles back in the pocket. "I can refill it in seconds, and I have a few dozen of the potions. This is a level 30 creature, but even though it is close to our level, you probably have nullification against its attacks, and I can kill it easily if it were to attack us. I have used Alchemy to strengthen its skin, bones and muscles, raising it to around 45-50 if I had to say."

Truth nodded as he circled the summon, and leaned in, peering into its eyes, through its mask. "I can do this." Truth stated firmly, pointing at the summon as well as Barry.

"I cannot just swap souls, it wouldn't be equivalent. However, I can simply use a double negative and send them through the Gate. Barry gets his lack of a body taken by him getting a body, which is the summon's body. The summon loses said body and is given the metal piece instead. I do enjoy loopholes."

Truth faced the soul piece and Jack the Ripper, and waved his hands. The body of Jack the Ripper disintegrated, and the metal of Barry's souls shimmered as the body regrew around the soul, leaving the piece of metal where Barry's heart would have been. The body of Jack the Ripper expanded back to its previous size, encompassing the soul. Finally Truth sat back, and all that was left was what appeared to be Jack the Ripper.

After a few moments silence, the body moved, looking side to side, then at itself. After staring at its claw hands, it began laughing. "YES! I liiiive!" Barry's voice cackled loudly, no longer having the same metallic quality it had when in the suit of armor.

He ran over and hugged Ainz around his bony waist. "Thank you thank you! This body is so much better than armor!"

Ainz patted him on the back awkwardly. "It's no problem. you are a valuable asset and it would be a shame for you to go in the way that you would have."

"Yes, yes, it was nice seeing you Ainz, but I insist you leave, I have some matters to attend to. I can inform you that one of the few other beings that can appear here from another world gave me advice on helping you, but it is not doable at the moment. Now, please get out of my dimension." Truth complained.

"Alright, but you know you enjoy my company." Ainz said smugly. He and Barry stepped through the {Gate} he createdand it began closing. "You sound like an old man telling kids to get off his lawn." Ainz called as a parting shot as the portal closed.

Truth sighed to himself. "He is nice to hang around with. It's not like there are many things to do here, and Tet is busy playing games with the mortals of his world. I should be more active..." he muttered to himself, gathering up the cards that were still on the floor.


HQ Tower
Barry looked around in awe at the tower they arrived back in. "Check out these digs! This place is fancy!" He exclaimed, ever the excited one about new things. He glanced up at the painting framing the entrance hall. "Is that you up there? Who are those guys?" Barry asked, referring to the image of the Guild member's player models.

Ainz smiled, nostalgia being one of the few sensations not blocked by his emotional block. "That was my Guild, or my closest friends, you could say. We were some of the strongest beings in our world."

Barry tiled his masked face, absentmindedly clicking his claws. "Other world?"

Ah, Ainz had not told Barry yet. "Allow me to explain..."

A long explanation later (I don't want to explain everything again):

and that is our goal." he finished. Barry nodded to himself. "So you want me to help kill the homunculi for ya? I can chop them up good! Especially Gluttony! He creeped me out."

Ainz nodded. I have plans, but I want you to get accustomed to the tower we have here, which is under the Xingese desert. If you can explore the tunnels, and make sure they are all blocked off, that would be helpful. I remembered to inform the Elemental to not attack you. If you need practice, ask me when I return." Ainz recommended, slinging his backpack over his shoulders.

"Sure thing boss, I'll see ya later!" Barry cried.


Amestris, Central
Hotel Room
0812 Hours

Edward's eye twitched as he stared.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" he shouted aloud.

"I'm sorry brother." Alphonse replied as Ed stared in shock as the damage to his armor.

"B-But... how are you this beat up? Argh!" Ed said frantically as he worried over Al's condition. He stopped and glared.

"And you! What are you doing here!" he said angrily at Ling and Lan Fan, who were sitting at the table.

Ling stared at him. "Eating a delicious dinner?" he replied with his mouth full as if there was no better answer. "Get out!" Ed shouted at him.

He kicked them from the room, where they promptly sat down waiting in the corridor. Ainz was waiting out there for them leaning against the wall.

"I told you he wouldn't want you to be in there." he chastised the Xingese prince as Ed was ranting in the background.

"Now I don't get any more food..." Ling said sadly to himself.

Ainz sighed, and reached into his backpack. He pulled out a sandwich from his bag, which he could make easily enough with magic. "Here you go. It's not great, but it's a meal." Ling stared at the food in awe. He moved to snatch the food out of Ainz's hands, but hesitated.

"Why should I trust you? You aren't human. Just because you helped out Edward and that officer lady from the alley doesn't mean you're on our side. You attacked that armor guy and I!"

'I really shouldn't have let him get away alive.' Ainz groaned internally.

"I can say for a fact I have nothing against you or your country." he said aloud. "And Barry is alive. I cannot tell you what I am as of now, but I am fighting against those who threaten Amestris."

Ling looked at Ainz in suspicion. Ainz continued, "You can easily tell anyone that I am not human, then I would have my cover blown. I have a question for you. Why are you in Amestris. You don't have any reason to show up illegally, and if you needed to contact the country, you could have done so diplomatically as a Prince of Xing." Ainz asked.

"Very well. I am looking for a source of immortality, so that I may return to Xing, impress everyone, and become Emperor." Ling replied confidently.

"Immortality? That's a hefty goal, and a dangerous path as well." Ainz said ominously.

"You never said it's impossible." Ling noted.

"I never said I was mortal." Ling went silent for once, as the impact of the statement hit him. Lan Fan sat seemingly indifferent, but Ainz could see the strain she had preventing her from attacking him. "However, the method that I gained my abilities is not one that can be replicated for you." Ainz explained. "This conversation does bring up an issue. I don't believe I can trust you not to give away my secrets, and I have all the reason to wipe your memory. I would have done so already, but it would be nice to have you as an ally. Also if I tried, you would attack me and my cover would be blown before I could." he explained. "Can you not give away my secret as well as help this country? I will help you gain immortality after we have killed the ones planning the downfall of Amestris."

Ling squinted at him even more (if that was possible) and finally sighed. "Fine, I agree to your terms. I will help this country, and you help me get immortality eventually. And you don't get to order me around!" he complained. Ainz nodded gratefully, and got up.

"Welp, I'm on my way to go investigate the Third Laboratory again, but this time on my own. I'll be nice and let you know what I locate, if anything. We should meet up later, but you'd probably find me before then."


Invisible, Ainz walked calmly through the Third Laboratory, his tracks covered by {Perfect Unknowable}. Arriving where the steps used to be, he inspected the wall, and found some hasty Alchemy covering it up. Seriously, even a novice could have done it. Sighing at the stupidity of the person who sealed it up, he considered his options. Any Alchemist worth his salt could undo the transmutation, even if he was unsure of the exact proportions of the moved stone, they could easily Deconstruct it. Ainz did not want to reveal himself to the scientists, so he slipped into a closet nearby, and used a {Gate} to appear in the room he was in before.

Gazing up at the large doors in front of him, he could sense a being on the other side, nearly God-Like, at par with Albedo, or one of the other Floor Guardians, but Ainz was not here for the being, not directly. It would be so simple to just devastate the one behind all of the Homunculi, but it would most definitely level all of Amestris, or at least Central. All Ainz would have to do was enter, throw around some low level spells, and then drop some information he shouldn't know, and instant paranoia for the bad guy. It was standard Villain-101 that the bad guys kept their plan to their chest until they strike and monologue for a while.

"Time to see what this guy is up to..." Ainz said, his invisibility vanishing, and he and Barry started towards the doors.


Ooh, Ainz is nearing Father! Will they meet, or will someone interfere and try to stop Ainz? I wonder what will happen? Find out next time!

Story Updates and Nyx Note: I'm working on yet ANOTHER fanfiction based on the 'MOD!Harry is not Amused' series by Plot_Bunny_Whisperer. Its pretty good, and will be a series of one shots, maybe a few multi chapter ones here and there. I am starting a new season on my wrestling team, so my free time is halved, meaning slower updates. Don't worry, you will be getting a Christmas Update surprise. You may like it, may not, it's your opinion.
