Chapter 461: Autism Again
"By the way...how long has it been?"
Ainz regained his composure, put on his robes, and walked around the bedroom muttering to himself.
Because he is an undead, he does not feel hungry or sleepy, and accordingly, he becomes extremely insensitive to the passage of time.
Since leaving the frozen prison that day, he had returned to his bedroom and had stayed there until now, so much so that he didn't know how much time had passed.
After wandering around for a while, Ainz slapped his head and shook it vigorously, as if to encourage himself, "Time and other things are not important. The most important thing now is to get out and apologize to everyone."
"I have to apologize for making them worry because of my willfulness."
While encouraging himself, Ainz strode towards the bedroom entrance.
Anyway, let’s get out first.
Ainz opened the door and walked out. There were two, or three, people guarding the door.
When the two men saw Ainz, they bowed their heads respectfully. They were dressed like butlers, but apart from the white gloves, their black clothes did not look like butler uniforms. Instead, they looked more like combat uniforms.
These two were among the ten male servants in Nazarick, but even Ainz could not tell which of the ten they were.
Because the ten male servants were all wearing hood masks commonly worn by combatants, and they could only make strange noises and could not speak.
Next to the butler stood a penguin wearing a black tie.
If it was a human being wearing only a tie, it would be a very sexy naked tie, but since it was a penguin, it would just feel funny.
Seeing Ainz coming out of the room , the penguin was slightly startled, and immediately bowed with his round body and said, "Ainz-sama, I am sincerely happy to see that your attitude is as majestic as always."
"Well, I'm sorry to have worried you, Ekrea."
Ainz nodded in response. Although the penguin in front of him was very funny, he did not laugh.
The penguin in front of him was certainly not just a penguin, but an assistant butler of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, a member of an alien race also known as bird-man, named Ekreia Ekrel Eikreia.
There is no penguin-like birdman. This is a rockhopper penguin specially made by Hongdoubao Mochi, a former guild mate.
Thinking back to his former companions, Ainz once again made up his mind. No matter how much the mysterious man knew about him, he was determined to rescue the child of his former companion!
“Don’t say that, Lord Ainz.” Penguin shook his head and said again: “You are the Supreme Being we serve. No matter what you want to do, we will support you.”
Hearing this, Ainz was somewhat moved, but as a green light flashed, that feeling of emotion was suppressed by calmness again.
“Tsk!”
Feeling his emotions gradually calming down, Ainz sighed softly. This passive ability of forced calmness was really troublesome.
Never mind, he's almost used to it.
Retracting his thoughts, Ainz said goodbye to the penguin at the door, and with a thought, he was teleported to a room near the throne room by the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.
Even with a ring that allows one to teleport at will within the Great Tomb, the throne room is still a room that cannot be teleported.
After tidying up his appearance, Ainz took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and strode towards the throne room.
In a moment, he arrived at the entrance of the throne room.
Looking at the tall and magnificent door in front of him, Ainz prepared in case he was at a loss as to what to say when the time comes.
After his thoughts calmed down, he pushed open the door.
However, when Ainz saw the Guardians gathered in the throne room, he was stunned.
Compared to his now relaxed mood, the atmosphere among the guardians was somewhat tense, even a little sad.
Ainz vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and silently walked past the Guardians who automatically made way for him, and sat on his throne.
Only after he sat high on the huge throne did Ainz perk up his spirits and look at the guardians below with the flickering scarlet light in his eyes.
With just a quick glance, he quickly noticed something was wrong.
There is one person missing!
Demiurge, the guardian of the seventh floor of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, is not present!
In a scene like this where all the guardians are gathered together, it is impossible for the other party to be absent, unless something unexpected happened.
Could it be that...
Recalling the heavy atmosphere he had just felt and the expressions on the faces of the Guardians, Ainz felt his vision go dark.
Betrayed again?
“Where is Demiurge…?”
Although he had guessed it, Ainz still asked in a hoarse voice, even though he didn’t want to hear the answer.
"Demiurge died in battle."
Shalltear took a step forward, her voice heavy, "He and I encountered a human group outside. They had world-class items, and he committed suicide when he was about to be controlled."
Hearing that Demiurge was not controlled and betrayed, but simply died in battle, Ainz breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
To be honest, among all the guardians, what he was most worried about was Demiurge's betrayal, because Demiurge was born with the face of a traitor.
Every time he looked at that face, he felt that the other party would betray him one day.
It was just a death in battle, which he could still accept, after all, NPCs who died in battle could be resurrected.
But after hearing Shalltear's next words, especially the words "world-class item", Ainz felt that if he had a heart, it would have stopped right now.
However, even though there was no heart, the red light in Ainz's eyes dimmed for a moment, then lit up again.
"World-class... props?"
Ainz muttered to himself, those were eleven supreme items that even the past Ainz Ooal Gown had only obtained. How could there be world-class items in this different world?
Ainz felt like he had fallen into a conspiracy and regretted leaving the bedroom. He now just wanted to go back to the bedroom and cover his head with the quilt again.
Just be an ostrich and pretend nothing happened...
How is that possible!
The red light in Ainz's
No, we can't go on like this. We have to at least revive Demiurge first.
Thinking of this, Ainz waved his hand.
"Prepare 500 million gold coins. I want to revive Demiurge!"
"Yes!"
…
On the other side, there is the Duwu Forest.
After the Platinum Knight went after Shalltear, the members of the Black Scripture team rested for a while and then left the forest together.
However, no one knew that when Shalltear and Demiurge were confronting the Platinum Knight, there was an old man who secretly watched everything.
Including the subsequent battles, the use of "Alluring Beauty", and the departure of everyone, etc.
This Lao Liu is Xia Yu’s incarnation. Originally, the incarnation was still learning magic with Narberal , but when he sensed the unusual movement above his head, he couldn't help but go up to take a look, and then he saw everything.
"I didn't expect the plot to change. In the end, the Black Scripture still encountered Nazarick, but the ending was a little different."
The incarnation muttered something on the spot, and suddenly looked in the direction where the Black Scripture left.
"How about... secretly robbing Qing Guo Qing Cheng?"
