Chapter 297 "Ainz Ooal Gown"

Time, temporarily go back to a few minutes ago.

Turning your vision from the ground to the sky, in this night with the moon and stars hanging high, a person quietly appeared between the clouds.

"It's... so beautiful..."

With a voice full of exclamations, the man raised his head slightly, completely exposing his appearance to the moonlight and starlight.

That was a very big warrior.

The reason why the word "warrior" is used to describe the other party is because the other party is wearing a set of armor.

The armor is completely black, as if it is made of obsidian, and its surface is dotted with gold and purple patterns, making this set of armor look both gorgeous and valuable.

Such a set of high-value armor completely covered the person's whole body, whether it was the upper body, lower body, or even the feet, except for the head, which was not covered with armor. The head is exposed.

But this is the only head exposed to the air. If anyone witnesses it, they will definitely scream in terror.

Because that is not a human head, but a skull.

Yes, it's a skull.

There was no skin, no facial features, only white bones. Two red lights shone in the dark eye sockets, telling others that the skull was alive.

This burly warrior with a skull and wearing full-body black armor is the player who came to this world from "YGGDRASIL" not long ago, the protagonist of the original work - Ainz Ooal Gown.

No, that's not right, he is not Ainz Ooal Gown yet.

Ainz Ooal Gown is the guild of the original protagonist in "YGGDRASIL", not his own name.

His real name in the game is Momonga, and he is also called Momonga now. After he begins to step into this world and come into contact with the people of this world, he will change his name to Ainz Ooal Gown.

Of course, to others, this is actually quite insignificant.

No matter whether his name is Momonga or Ainz Ooal Gown, it doesn't change the fact.

That is, he is a player who traveled from "YGGDRASIL", a ruler of death who has reached a level of 100 and can use more than 700 kinds of magic.

Originally, he should have been an ordinary human being.

However, in "YGGDRASIL", he did not choose the human race as his character, but chose the alien type and became an undead.

The undead who were transformed by magic casters in order to learn ultimate magic are among the highest-ranking rulers of death.

This is him, the man now called Momonga, and from now on, Ainz Ooal Gown.

"This is really a different world."

Momonga sighed repeatedly while suspended in the sky, admiring the beautiful night scene in front of him.

"There is no such scene in the modern world or in "YGGDRASIL". Especially in modern times, the environment has been seriously polluted, and it is impossible to see such beautiful scenery. "

"If Blue Planet-san were here, he would be very happy, right?"

"After all, he likes this beautiful and pollution-free nature the most."

Saying these words, Momonga's tone suddenly became low and depressed.

"Where is everyone now?"

"Did you come to this world just like me?"

"still……"

Although it was just a skeleton face without flesh and blood, the low and depressed tone, combined with Momonga's dejected look, could still give a vague glimpse of his expression, which might be very sad.

It seems normal for someone who travels to this kind of world alone as a game character to behave like this.

However, it is somewhat inaccurate to say that Momonga traveled to this world alone.

Admittedly, Momonga is the only player who has traveled through time.

However, what followed the player Momonga through time was not only his current strength, identity, and various weapons and props, but also a guild base and a group of NPCs who were originally just data.

"Lord Momonga."

A voice sounded from below, awakening Momonga who was immersed in sentimentality.

The person who came was about 180 centimeters tall, with dark skin that looked like he was often exposed to the sun. He was wearing a British-style suit. He gave the impression that he was a very capable business person or professional like a lawyer. man.

The man's tone was calm and his voice was extremely pleasant, making people easily think of a "gentleman".

However, this gentleman exudes an evil aura, and behind him is a tail covered with a silver metal plate. There are six spikes at the front of the tail, and there is a wet tail on the back. The huge black leather wings are a real alien shape.

Especially this gentleman's face, which is not a human face at all, but a frog's face.

Needless to say, this person is not a human being, but an alien, a strange being.

"Demiurge."

Momonga called out the name of the visitor.

He is one of the NPCs who traveled to this world with Momonga. He is the guardian of the seventh floor of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, the headquarters of Momonga's guild "Ainz Ooal Gown", and the highest level one hundred Level Demon——Demiurge.

"You're flying too high, Momonga-sama."

Demiurge opened a pair of huge leather wings and flew respectfully behind Momonga, saying this.

"If it goes out of my sight casually, I will be very troubled."

Demiurge's respectful tone did not give the impression that he was restricting personal freedom, but he made such a statement out of consideration for the safety of the monarch he served.

"...Really? That's really sorry."

Momonga changed his previous frustration and loss, and apologized to his subordinates in a voice full of force.

"No, this is just my unilateral worry. There is no need for Momonga-sama to apologize." Demiurge bent down in mid-air, as if saluting, and still said respectfully: "If you think about it carefully, if Momonga-sama is like this How could such an invincible being need to worry about safety issues?"

"In the final analysis, this is just my wishful thinking. Only by seeing Momonga-sama safe and sound can we feel at ease."

"Therefore, Momonga-sama has no need to apologize at all. It is better to say that I am the one who should apologize. It is really inappropriate for you, as the supreme Supreme Being, to understand my trivial concerns."

Demiurge kept talking like this, and the respect and love in his tone could not be concealed.

"Y-really?"

Momonga suddenly seemed unable to bear it, and his words became a little slow and stuttered, but he still managed to hold on and did not show a side that was unbecoming of a ruler in front of his subordinates.

As the guildmaster of "Ainz Ooal Gown", the ruler of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, and the loyal object of all NPCs, Momonga has very strict requirements for himself, that is, he must show his majesty in front of his subordinates at all times. Only one side will do.

After all, he had just traveled to this world. In the past, these NPCs were just data. They had no intelligence, let alone life. Now they are all alive. If they feel that they are not suitable to be their ruler, they may unite. Resist him.

This was something Momonga wanted to avoid at all costs.

The Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick is a place jointly run by "Ainz Ooal Gown" and a total of forty-one Supreme Beings. It is also the place where players jointly manage it. It is the brainchild left to Momonga by his past companions.

Therefore, including these NPCs designed by his companions, Momonga hopes to take good care of and protect them so that they can last forever.

If due to his own reasons, the NPCs question his ability and cause turmoil in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, then the problem is really too big.

With no other choice, Momonga, an ordinary office worker, could only insist on showing up as a qualified ruler to show his ability.

Although... this is very tiring!

Resisting the urge to sigh in his heart, Momonga waved his hand to Demiurge and said something.

"Don't call me Momonga outside. We still don't know what the world is like now, so we have to avoid accidentally revealing our identity. Do you understand?"

Momonga's words naturally did not arouse Demiurge's suspicion.

"Yes, then what should I call you?"

"...Dark Warrior."

"……ha?"

"Call me Dark Warrior."

"...I understand, then from now on, I will call you the Dark Warrior."

"Well, please."

After satisfying his secondary urge, Momonga was ready to go home.

At this moment...

"grown ups!"

Demiurge let out a loud cry.

"...!?"

Flying Squirrel also froze violently.

Below the two people, a burst of fire suddenly lit up, turning into a beam of fire that cut through the night sky, rising into the sky and shooting high into the sky.

Not long after, the fire beam passed in front of the flying squirrel, and its trend continued unabated, all the way upward.

"Lord Momonga!"

Demiurge then rushed in front of Momonga, exuding a terrifying aura.

That momentum completely blew away the surrounding clouds.

"take it easy."

Momonga, on the other hand, calmed down.

"This is not directed at us, no, or in other words, the other party is not targeting us, but just wants to attract our attention."

Momonga saw this.

"Who is it?" Demiurge said with a gloomy face, suppressing his anger: "An enemy?"

"I don't know." Momonga's eyes flashed red and he murmured: "Looking at the other party's appearance, he should have the idea of ​​talking to us."

"Want to get in touch?"

"I haven't made enough preparations yet. Will it cause problems if I rashly come into contact with people from this world?"

"But it also seemed like a good opportunity."

Many ideas came to Momonga's mind and he brainstormed.

"good."

It didn't take long for Momonga to make a decision.

"Demiurge, use [Message] to notify Albedo and all the guardians to raise the alert level to the highest level."

"Let's go meet him."
