Hello again and wow thanks for the support for my prologue but first things first. I know it's kind of weird not to use roxy in the story but don't worry roxy will definitely play a role in this fanfic. Also to give a little bit more context on Momanga's abilities I will list them every so often about his new powers. So the powers he had gained are:
Intermediate wind mage
Intermediate water mage
Advanced earth mage
Saint fire mage
Plus a few other things like basic level in healing magic which is a great boost for him he also know knows the basics of magic and how to explain it this is all thanks to dark wisdom. This maybe controversial but please let me know what you guys think Also relax with the whole Momonga is a teacher all is basically covered this chapter so without further delay enjoy
Chapter 1: the student meets there masters
"talking"
'thinking'
/action and spells/
(change of POV and or place/time)
"Mhhh so it's straight ahead and then take a turn wait is the turn here or?" Momonga looked around trying to find his way to the home of the individual he needed to teach.
'I don't know how old he is, but Annie said it was a tutor job considering most people can't even use intermediate level of magic he's probably a teenager still I need to expect anything! This is like seeing a client for the first time I need to leave a good impression!' Momonga thinking back to his old business techniques where he needed to suck up to the higher ups.
Walking further along the dirt road Momonga felt that a lot of people were staring right at him some whispered others just looked on in amazement of the big mage.
'Why are you all looking at meeee! Do I have some dirt on my clothes?' Momonga was becoming increasingly more anxious, but the emotion suppression wouldn't allow it to go far
"Mhhh I think this is it, a large house with a big front yard." Taking a deep breath Momanga took a step forward 'this is it time to leave a good impression!'
As soon as he knocked on the door 3 people came out a woman around her 20s-30s with blonde hair and beautiful eyes. Next to her was a man with a ponytail quite big although nowhere near his length, on his side Momonga noticed a sword which was quite expensive looking. In the middle of the couple was a young child no older than 3 years.
"A pleasure meeting you my name is Momonga and you are?" Momonga made a bow while he was using his inner businessman skills to come of as nice as possible."
The two blinked and also gave their greetings.
The man looked up really in shock with how big the mage was but none the less he said, "I'm Paul greyrat." And then looked at his wife.
"I'm Zenith greyrat and this is Rudeus." The woman said for the young child, the child was still at aww at the mage but said "your bigggg."
Momonga could not help but chuckle a little bit childeren are so silly.
"So, who am I going to teach?" Momanga said looking at the couple.
The woman gave Momonga a smirk "While him of course." Pointing to her son the face that she made showed a hint of pride.
"Ohh really well then I'm impressed how old are you child?" Momonga kneeled to look the child in the eye, Rudeus was his name 'interesting I didn't think that children this young could even have cohered thoughts let alone have the power to cast magic' he thought.
(rudy Pov)
'Okay this wasn't what I expected. When I first casted water cannon and heard I was getting a tutor I imaged an old wizard with a long beard not a 2-meter giant of a man is he really a mage?!'
"uuh I'm three years old sir Momonga." Rudy inspected his clothes further he noticed that Momonga had a tall robe with weird horns on his shoulders but what he was most puzzled at was why the man was wearing a mask and gloves maybe he had some skin decease.
The giant man slowly stood up "Alright let's see what you can do." He walked further into the garden signaling rudy to follow.
Rudy was let down by zenith and walked to Momonga.
"Alright show me what you can do little man." He said in a curious voice.
"Alright here goes, Supple spirit of water and princess of streams that flow through the earth-" before rudy could finish his incantation he was absolutely blinded by the light that reflected on Momonga clothes. But still the /water cannon/ he casted was very deadly seen as it still went on destroying a nearby tree.
"Mhhhhhh good Rudeus but if I'm not mistaken that incantation was cut short you often do that?" Momonga asked
'Damn I don't know if it's a taboo to skip it or shorten it what will he think?' Rudeus was long in thought, so Momonga cut him off
"Relax normally I just skip it entirely." Momanga said as he then casted a /Exodus Flame/ silently into the sky making a big explosion.
Rudeus lit up knowing he had someone who also could use voiceless incantation. His face couldn't contain it anymore "Yes master I also usually skip the incantation part watch." With that said rudy than casted another /water canon/ but this time he didn't say a word.
"Hey guys what was th- MOMONGA PLEASE DO NOT USE MY TREES AS TRAGET PRATICE!" Zenith said after picking some refreshments.
"Sorry miss Zenith but I must say your absolutely right about your child he has a whole lot of potential!" Momanga said slowly walking towards the tree to use /repair/ a 4th tier spell from YGGDRASSIL usually seen as a waste of space, but Momanga finds use for everything.
But zenith did not care what Momonga had done with her tree, she just gave Rudeus a thumbs up she was the proudest mother on the planet
momonga pov few hours later)
'I must say this child is impressive not only can he use Intermediate water magic, which is about lvl 10-20 in YGGDRASSIL terms, but he can also do it without saying a single word!' Momonga was really happy that he found this boy he could grow up to be a perfect ally in the future but for now.
"I think that's enough Rudeus let's go inside." Clapping his hands, Momonga quickly went turned around to go inside but he was met with the housekeeper. 'Aah what was her name again something with an L'
"Apology miss I didn't see you there." Looking now directly in the face of the housekeeper she reminded him a little bit of the maids in Nazarick although she looked far more timid than those girls.
"Oh no I must say my apologies sorry for not looking." Bowing her head as she said it.
Walking further inside the home he got now a good look at it and he must admit it looked like a pretty comfy home. As he turned around waiting for Rudy he could see the maid quickly avoiding his gaze after she was caught staring at him. But before he could be surprised, he was caught off guard
"Aaaah Momonga how was training rudeus?" Paul said trying to reach his shoulder to give him a tap but it was like tapping a wall, rock hard like he didn't have any muscles
"Oh it didn't go to bad I must say he's made for this now I will take my lea-" Momonga tried to say until he was stopped by Paul.
"Leave? Oh no you don't! Not when we made this feast for you!" Paul said slowly walking away from Momonga's view showing a table full of nice food and drinks.
'Ooh shit shit shit shit. I can't eat. Since I'm an undead I have no need for food nor water, but I can't digest it either damn I knew I should've picked a vampire build.' Using all of his brain power Momonga thought of the perfect excuse.
"My apologies everyone although this food looks absolutely delicious, I have a religious flowing that prevents me from removing/showing my bare skin to anyone outside my family if I ever want to use my magic again but considering it would be rude from me not to indulge…"
With that said a few of the pieces of food were starting to fly up in the air and pieces were torn off. As if they were dancing the pieces of food that were torn off went to Momanga and 2 little dark portals opened swallowing all the bite size pieces.
Everyone was at aww to have such skill at magic to silently do all that was more than impressive.
"And I almost forgot." Momonga pulled out a bottle off expensive looking wine in return for the food "here you go hope you like it thank you for having me." And with that he went slowly to sit on one of the chairs.
"Okay are we just going to act like that didn't happen?" Paul said in awe
"Master how did you do that?" Rudy asked with still amazement in his eyes he looked around and saw that everyone was as surprised as he was.
"Oh that's just a little party trick I will teach it to you someday sounds good?" Momonga said while slowly giving Rudy a pat on the head he could now see why lady Yamaiko loved children so much they were just so cute and pure.
"Mhh I actually have a question for you what faith do you follow we are from the Millis faith even though you wouldn't recognize it by seeing Paul." Zenith said, giving Paul a slow look of disgust and irritation.
"Oh I follow an old faith, one where magic stand at the peak we develop first then we pray is our motto." Momonga used all his bs roleplaying skills to lie his way through. 'Please believe me I can't take it anymore." If the emotion suppression didn't kick in, he would've broken centuries ago.
"Master is that why you're so good at magic?" Rudy said
Momonga shrugged he was good at magic because he was good at the game so he just said, "could be young Rudeus but it could also be something completely else."
"Oh Momonga sir I was wondering could you also teach Rudeus math and reading/writing?" Zenith said hoping to get even more value off the man
"I'm deeply sorry miss Zenith but I cannot since I can't read nor write in this language." Momonga said truthfully
"Oh wait how did you then even get this job application?" Zenith questioning him like a policewoman.
"Oh I had help of a friend but more importantly I have this little Item." Momonga pulled out a shining new object, it were his glasses.
"hhm they just look like glasses to me what do they do?" Paul asked closely, looking at the glasses up and down trying to see if there was anything special.
"Oh it's just some glasses that translate anything I read to my main language."
"Wow that's pretty handy I'm sure that it would sell quite a lot do you have more items like that Master." Rudeus said looking at the glasses
"offcourse. but that's enough about me go ahead please eat don't let me keep you waiting." Momonga said. 'man, this place is fun everyone is so nice, and most people are kind of jerks in my old world but not here'
Momonga was starting to feel an emotion again long lost to him happiness and this time the suppression didn't kick in it was just not a strong wave of happiness like he felt in his Ainz Ooal Gown days but still it was happiness none the less
Making a small smile in his mind he felt at ease. After the welcome party was done Paul and Zenith offered to let him stay in the guest room and although he accepted it, he wouldn't make use of it for tonight.
(somewhere south of the village Momonga's Pov)
"Alright let's continue with the testing." Momonga said to himself. He found it pretty fun to do these kinds of test, so he started naming them.
"Test 03 can I still use swords and shields outside my expertise?" As soon as Momonga was done saying this he picked up an iron sword from his inventory and started to swing but it fell right out of his hands before the swing could end.
'Mhh so that part does still function like YGGDRASSIL.' Looking at his hands he then casted /perfect warrior/ allowing him to use swords and other weapons
'mh let's see.' With the same iron sword as before he used a simple /slash/ on the nearby trees and all were cut done.
'Looks like my old spells work the same still.' Taking a mental note while he placed the sword back in his inventory
"Alright let's do something else test 04 can I read and write by absorbing a book using dark wisdom?" With that he picked up a book he kindly "borrowed" from the adventure's guild it was about rules and what not.
'let's see.' Using dark wisdom, the book was absorbed by the gue and his hand was left. 'I don't feel any different like when I absorbed the knowledge from that mage guy.'
Using /teleport/ he was now Infront of the Inn of Annie and sadly he couldn't read the sign infront of him. 'so, it doesn't work like that ohh well I can always use my glasses.'
"well, that's enough for now I think I'm going back to oef." Before he could release what had happened the blue haired girl was Infront off him again.
"Well miss I'm getting a sense of dejavu tell me can I help you with something?" Momonga said slowly help the small girl up.
"Oh no sir I although I'm not very sure on what do right now." Roxy had a pretty hard time on deciding on what to do with her live right now
"Mhhh I think you could help me." Momonga said looking down at the small lady.
"How?" Roxy said looking up at the giant of a man.
"Well, I am tutoring this child and although I can teach him magic some things are a little alien towards me namely the higher levels of water and wind magic perhaps you could help me there?"
Roxy lit up and smiled. "yeah, my water magic is saint ranked and mine wind isn't to bad either."
"Amazing although I don't think they're going to be happy with paying for two tutors." Momonga said "but I will talk with them I will see with what I can do sounds good?"
"yeah thank you very much sir!" roxy giving a deep bow in the middle of her sentence
"ah miss please raise your head I was the one that stole that job off you this is the only way I can repay you." Momonga said gently putting his hand on her shoulder
She looked up and smiled. "yeah thanks again."
(the next day rudy's pov)
"Listen I would love to have you here, but my child already has a tutor, and I don't know if I can pay anymore then I'm already paying for Momonga." Paul looked down at the small mage and although yes it was a shame Momonga couldn't read or write in this language it was still more than enough since Rudy seemed to understand it quite well without any formal training
Rudeus was just waking up and heard a little bit of commotion downstairs 'hmmm what is it I wonder in my old life I wouldn't have cared a just stayed inside my room like a geek, but this isn't my old life.'
"Paul, listen I know the pay is a bit much, but I have a deal. You and your wife already offered me 4 silver coins per month for my services if I could read and write say that Roxy and I split the money 50/50 could that be acceptable?" Momonga came through with a good plan, at least that's what he thought.
"What" both Paul and Roxy said in unison.
'What are they saying it sound like that there's another person here.' Rudy thought
Momonga was shaking, he looked around confused and his emotional suppression kicked in 'oh damn what did I say? Is it rude or something should I just offered my job oh why are they surprised.'
"I must say Momonga I didn't think you would do that." Paul said still a little bit surprised
"yeah I agree I mean a mage on your level lowering yourself you really are everything." Roxy said.
"Well then it's decided Rudy will have two tutors!" Paul exclaimed excitedly.
"huh" In Momonga's mind he was absolutely confused he didn't know what to think but In the end he just went along with it.
Rudy just then went down stair looking at the new arrival who was a small blue haired girl
"So where is the child I will be teaching?" Roxy said while giving a quick glance at Rudy
"Mhh he's right there and also Paul I would like to discuss something with you if you don't mind." Momonga pointing to Rudy but then looking back at Paul and starting a conversation with him.
"Hello miss my name is Rudeus greyrat." Rudy giving a deep bow but in his mind all red lights were going off. 'what another tutor this is crazy but damn is she good looking I want her to be my wife.'
"So young incredible if momonga said that you have potential then I believe him so let's see it." Roxy said also signaling him to show her what he can do.
(few hours later Momonga's Pov)
"Soo that's about it I think, this is the best we can do for Rudeus progression but also making sure he isn't overstressed with the work load." Momonga looked back at the paper he made for Rudeus it was a week planer that said perfectly what he needed to do every day of the week.
"This looks good Momonga thanks but I thought you couldn't read or write in this language what happened?" Paul asked surprised at the sudden change in Momonga
"Mhh oh I have this magic item that translate anything into mine language."
"Oh that's handy he Momonga where are you exactly from? You don't strike me as a person from the Millis or central continent since you can't read or write in the human language" Paul said curious
Momonga looked at Paul he didn't know what to say, he couldn't just tell him "He I'm really from a different world where magic didn't exist." With a big breath he said "Listen Paul I wouldn't really like to talk about mine past if that's alright with you."
Momonga tried his hardest to sound as cool as possible he absolutely didn't want to him to dig any further but before Paul could apologies for his action they heard the door
*click* the sound of the door opened and Roxy and Rudeus came inside.
"Aah all is well I presume we have something to show Rudeus." Momonga picking up the paper he made and letting Rudeus see it. 'thank the lord they came in at when they did.
"so this is my new schedule mmhh I like it thanks Momonga." Rudy said smiling a him while he said it.
Momonga just smiled and had an inner monologue about how he wanted to see Rudeus and what he will become. 'well lets see what the future brings.' Looking outside as he thought of it.
So here's the first chapter the story here before was just to see if people will be hooked on the story and I must say I'm happy with the results. Also I don't know what My update schedule will be but I hope it will be about once a week also some time skips will be in order like next chapter but please say what you think about this story anyway have a good morning/afternoon/night love you all!
