Warhammer 30k and the Great Tomb of Nazarick

Chapter 52: Demiurge (Part )

The Great Tomb of Nazarick

Between the Tenth Floor Throne Room

Ainz Ooal Gown, the master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the current and only Supreme Being, and the absolutely powerful enemy who was once regarded as invincible, summoned all the Guardians except Aura and Demiurge.

Ainz's skeleton face still exudes the aura of a king, but in reality, if it weren't for the forced calmness and the expressionless skeleton, it would definitely not be able to maintain its current appearance.

Just now, in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, all four demon generals and the Ruler of Naraku who served as Demiurge’s personal guards were killed in a very short time.

Those are all units above level 80, and they are ambushed in advance in the world-class prop Shanhe Shejitu.

The four demon generals can also summon four demon generals, plus a hundred-level guardian like Demiurge.

Even the most powerful group of level 100 players, such as World Calamity or World Champion, theoretically, could not eliminate nine level 80 demons so quickly.

So what exactly happened?
Did someone use a world-class prop?
Or did the Dragon King of this world use the legendary origin magic?

Or are there multiple units similar to level 100 players appearing?

Keep your eyes on the game board.

Yes, after coming to this world, Ainz can still use the game panel to check the status of each unit in the Great Tomb at any time.

I don’t know whether its later behavior of treating the world more and more as a game was also influenced by this.

Before Ainz's eyes, Demiurge's health began to decrease steadily, and finally stopped when it reached one-ninth. Then Demiurge's name turned gray.

This showed that Demiurge had broken away from the Great Tomb of Nazarick and became an independent unit.

Ainz had seen similar situations before.

That is, not long after Shalltear came to this world, she encountered the Black Scripture of the Silan Theocracy.

This team includes some stunningly beautiful guys equipped with world-class items.

As a world-class prop, the effect of the stunning beauty is very simple, that is

Charming!

At that time, Shalltear was directly transformed into a wild monster.

Then, she was killed by Ainz himself, thus proving the theory that Guardians can be reborn even if they die in this world. (After being reborn, Shalltear lost her memories of the time when she was enchanted, and was unable to tell her story.)
The fact that Shalltear was enchanted directly led to Ainz's battle of wits and courage with the air for a long period of time in the future, and it was also the reason why Ainz launched a war of destruction against the Theocracy.

After all, although Shalltear was nominally an NPC serving Ainz, in Ainz's heart, this NPC created by his former companion was like his family and his child.

(Although he is a child who doesn't know if he can be resurrected even if he kills someone, so he won't be forced to calm down even if he kills someone himself)
But in short, since the Theocracy dared to attack the people of Nazarick, it must be prepared to retaliate a million times.

As for what Shalltear did at that time and why she was attacked.

That’s not important. The people in the Great Tomb of Nazarick want to kill people ≠ the people being killed can resist.

Now, the world-class item "The Bewitching City and the Bewitching Nation" had long been recovered by the Great Tomb of Nazarick due to the destruction of the Theocracy. Theoretically, there was no means to forcibly charm and control Demiurge.

But looking at the gray name of Demiurge in front of him, no matter how ridiculous it was, he had to admit that Demiurge had become a wild monster.

Ainz’s heart sank.

Fortunately, forced calmness restored it like an electric defibrillator.

Then it saw that the logo representing the world-class prop Shanhe Shejitu disappeared.

Huh?
Huh?

Hey hey? !

Ainz’s heart, which had just risen, sank again.

Then I forced myself to calm down and restore it to its original state.

Thanks to the forced calm effect of the undead race.

Ainz sighed inwardly and immediately gave the order.

"Pandora, go to the treasury immediately and check the status of the world-class item, "The Beauty of the Country", which was recovered from the Theocracy?"

"Yes, Lord Ainz!"

After giving an exaggerated military salute, Pandora disappeared directly between the thrones.

Soon Pandora returned to the throne room.

"Reporting to Lord Ainz, the Beauty of the Country is still in the treasure house. There is no problem at all."

"no problem?"

"Yes, no problem." As the steward of the Great Tomb, Albedo also learned through the panel that Demiurge had escaped from the Great Tomb and that a world-class item was lost.

It was equally shocked, but was worried about affecting Lord Ainz, so it could only send the news to other guardians through communication magic.

Everyone was shocked, and Mare was the most excited. He tightly grasped the staff in his hand, his body shaking slightly, and he was obviously worried about his sister's safety.

So what exactly is going on?
Are there other world-class props that can achieve similar effects?
If it is some of the most powerful "twenty" world-class props, it may be possible to achieve the corresponding effect through special mechanisms.

YGGDRASIL, the game that Ainz played before he traveled through time, was a psychotic game that liked to hide information and let the players discover it themselves.

Even after the server was shut down, a lot of information had not been discovered.

If it weren't for the dystopian social environment that resulted in very few choices, this kind of poorly operated game would have probably died long ago.

But because of this special mechanism, even the most important and powerful world-class items contain a lot of unknown information.

Therefore, Ainz was not sure whether there were any other world-class items that could achieve similar effects.

But no matter what, the most urgent task now is to resurrect the demon generals and use them to confirm what happened at that time.

As she was thinking about this, Aura ran into the throne room.

Under normal circumstances, it is not possible to teleport directly to the Great Tomb of Nazarick, but Aura has the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown given by Ainz. By wearing this ring, she can teleport freely to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Aura did not seem to be injured, and her clothes were clean. However, unlike her usual dashing demeanor, at this moment, Aura was crying, her tears streaming down her face. Two streams of shiny snot flowed down her chest, swinging back and forth as she moved.

Seeing Aura, Ainz thought of a more terrifying situation.

Demiurge also had the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown, so it would be fine if he was killed.

The Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown is a bound equipment and will not drop.

But Demiurge seemed to have been bewitched. In this case, the worst possible scenario was that Demiurge would become the guide and lead the enemy directly into the tomb.

“Albedo, immediately activate the Great Tomb’s highest defense alert. Demiurge has been controlled, and he holds the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown. Be prepared for the possibility that Demiurge may bring his enemies with him at any time.”

“Yes, Master Ainz.”

At this moment, even Albedo had to be extremely alert. She left the throne room without hesitation and went to adjust the defenses of each level of the tomb.

"Okay, Aura, tell me what happened?"

At this moment, Aura was kneeling in the middle of the hall like a soldier, crying.

“Ainz-sama, it’s my fault. I lost the world-class item. Ainz-sama, wuwuwuwu┭┮﹏┭┮, Ainz-sama, I don’t deserve to live. Please excommunicate me, Ainz-sama.”

"Okay, Aura, it's okay. The Mountain and River State Map was originally another guild's equipment that we seized as the victors. Now that it's been taken away by someone else, we can just take it back."

Ainz patiently comforted Aura. It was impossible for him not to be angry, but with his passive ability of Forced Calm, Ainz would not be controlled by anger or panic and could deal with Aura with a calm attitude. Compared to the world-class item that had been lost, Ainz wanted to know what happened.

Of course, this behavior of Aura was seen by other guardians as the kindness of the great Lord Ainz. After losing such a precious equipment as a world-class item, even death would be a light punishment for Aura, but Lord Ainz not only forgave it, but also comforted it softly.

Deeply moved, Mare rushed to Aura’s side and knelt down like a soldier, his forehead hitting the ground with a loud noise.

Ainz even noticed that Mare’s HP had been reduced as a result.

“Thank…thank you…Ain…Ainz…sama…”

Mare's body was shaking, and he was so excited that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

“Thank you, Ainz-sama, for forgiving Aura who made such a huge mistake.”

The third person to kneel down in the posture of a soldier was the dragon butler Sebastian.

"Praise Ainz-sama for his kindness."

Cocytus is a humanoid insect. Due to its body structure, it cannot perform actions such as getting up from its seat, but it still faces Ainz in a kneeling position.

Shalltear, who was a little slower than the others, also knelt down and shouted, “Me too.”

"You...everyone..."

Aura cried even harder.

Hey, hey, although I am really moved right now, you should at least let Aura tell us the information she knows. The atmosphere is so good that I don’t know what to ask.

Ainz complained in his heart when Albedo came running back in a hurry.

"Ainz-sama, Demiurge has returned. He is standing at the entrance to the Great Tomb."

Ainz's forced calm was triggered once again.
