Chapter 53: Demiurge, Part

what?
Demiurge is back?

So fast?
"How many people did it carry?"

"It was just Demiurge. I didn't see anyone else."

"Immediately have Demiurge stand guard outside the Great Tomb. No one is allowed to enter or leave without permission."

“Yes, Master Ainz.”

"And tell it to write down every detail of its experience during the past period."

“As you command, Master Ainz.”

"By the way, bring at least ten servants above level 80. Although Demiurge is not good at fighting, the current situation is special. We need to consider whether it has any strange buffs."

"Thank you for your concern, Ainz-sama."

Albedo was very happy with Ainz's last words. Even the shock of Demiurge turning into a wild monster disappeared because of Ainz's concern. After receiving the order, Albedo quickly left the throne room.

Looking at the people now kneeling on the ground, Ainz felt that his nonexistent brain was beginning to hurt.

"Aura, tell me what you know first, as detailed as possible."

After listening to Aura's report, Ainz stroked his chin and fell into thought.

According to Aura's description, she actually had no idea what was going on. She just took dozens of high-level servants to attack the human empire's troops as planned.

After that, the ownership of the Shanhe Shejitu disappeared directly from here.

Demiurge, who was originally responsible for guarding the map of mountains, rivers, and the country, also became a wild monster.

The only noteworthy thing in the middle was what Aura said about a female canine demihuman showing abilities that had never been seen before.

It looks like his strength is about the same as that of a magic caster at level 60 or so.

Obviously, Demiurge's escape from the Great Tomb and the loss of the Mountain, River and State Map had nothing to do with that person.

Afterwards, Ainz used his authority as the ruler of the Great Tomb of Nazarick to resurrect the three demon generals and the Ruler of Naraku at the cost of hundreds of millions of gold coins.

According to the description of these demon servants, they were attacked by a powerful androgynous magic caster who was wearing a yellow and blue robe and holding a huge magic book in his hand.

Although the magic used by this magic caster is only up to the ninth level, it is extremely powerful and can use multiple magics at the same time, up to nine of the same magics.

The other party did not say his name or reveal where he was from.

Ainz stroked his smooth bony chin, thinking about this.

This description makes more sense.

The magic they use comes from the game YGGDRASIL, which should be a completely different force from that strange human empire, although they have recently begun to use some low-level magic.

But intelligence shows that these are all newly learned, and no forces in the human empire have yet used magic above level three.

The person who throws away ninth-level magic as if it were free is definitely not one of them.

Are they the natives of the Theocracy who inherited the player's legacy?
The possibility is very small. If there is such a very powerful unit, it is impossible that it did not appear before, making Juesi Jueming the last trump card.

That should be the player.

I just don't know whether he had traveled through time before or just now.

Now that you have determined the other party's camp, let's consider how they did it.

The most powerful magic caster's special class - World Disaster?
Or some kind of hidden profession?

It may also be that some special powerful props were used.

Ok?
What kind of krypton gold props or world props are they?

If it is a paid item, it seems unlikely.

Ainz was very familiar with the paid items in YGGDRASIL. If there really was an item that could use a spell nine times at the same time, it would be too disruptive to the balance and such a thing could not be hidden.

So it’s definitely not a paid item.

The professional skills are also impossible because they are too outrageous.

The most likely possibility is a world-class item, a special item that can be unreasonably powerful.

Ainz knew that there was a world-class item that had the appearance of a magic book.

After coming to this world, he obtained information from multiple sources.

Ainz learned that five hundred years ago, another group of players in this world were called the Eight Desire Kings. Among their collections was an item called the "Unnamed Spell Book", which was the most precious of all the treasures of the Eight Desire Kings.

Now there is a rumor that the book is worth the world.

The effect of this magic book is that it records all the magic in the world. Not only the magic created in the past, but any newly invented magic will also be automatically recorded.

There is no other possibility that this absurdly powerful effect could be anything other than a world-class item.

So the identity of this enemy is almost revealed.

He is a player who traveled through time and space. After coming to this world, he obtained a magic book containing world-class items from the legacy of the Eight Desire Kings.

Ainz expressed his guess and received praise that he was worthy of being the Supreme Being and that the facts should be so.

Ainz still felt a little uncomfortable without Demiurge and Albedo actively helping him fill in the gaps in his imagination.

Albedo came back in a hurry.
Albedo walked to the front of Ainz's throne, knelt on one knee, and respectfully presented the Holy Kingdom parchment that contained the information Demiurge had said to Ainz with both hands.

Ainz only took a quick look and was almost frightened out of his wits and forced himself to remain calm.

The information described by Demiurge was completely different from what the demon generals said.

The enemy was a gigantic bird-like demi-human that was six or seven meters tall.

Claiming to be the Lord of Change who serves the great god Tzeentch.

Demiurge also mentioned that the birdman even tried to hypnotize him, but failed, and he found an opportunity to escape successfully.

Ainz called up the control panel and took a closer look at Demiurge's condition.

Shows neutral monsters.

Demiurge cannot be trusted, it may have been completely controlled.

No, the worst case scenario is that Demiurge is not controlled, but becomes a neutral unit and betrays the Great Tomb of his own accord.

Although the probability of this happening is very low, it is still possible.

After all, Demiurge's creator is Ulbert, who is obsessed with darkness. According to Ulbert's setting, Demiurge is undoubtedly an extremely evil existence.

Although Ainz's previous tests had proven Demiurge's loyalty, those were experiments conducted when Demiurge was still a member of the Great Tomb.

Who knows what Demiurge, who has become a wild monster, will do?

It is not the simple-minded Shalltear, we must not let it go!
Ainz immediately called all the Guardians in the hall and went to the entrance of the Great Tomb, where Demiurge was standing waiting.

There was no change in Demiurge's appearance, even his clothes remained intact, but his tail kept swinging back and forth slightly, as if he was very annoyed.

“Lord Ainz, it is your subordinate…”

"Just stand there and don't come any closer!"

Albedo, who had already changed into combat gear and was covered in jet-black armor, shouted sternly.

Demiurge was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ainz who was observing him, and then looked at the other Guardians.

No one spoke for it.

Demiurge's lips twitched slightly, and he retracted his foot, which had already stepped forward. A look of sorrow appeared on his face, and he shouted respectfully:
"Yes."

"Demiurge. Can I still trust you?"

"Lord Ainz, I will always be a loyal servant of the Supreme Being."

Demiurge said anxiously.

"Very well, then Demiurge, can you explain to me why your description is completely different from what the other demons said?"

"no the same?"

Demiurge seemed genuinely stunned, and repeated the words subconsciously.

"See for yourself."

Ainz used magic to directly replay the demon generals' reports.

The more Demiurge watched, the more frightened he became, and by the end his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Lord Ainz, those demon generals have been affected. What they say is different from what actually happened. They are very dangerous! Can't we trust them?"

“So, Demiurge, should Ainz-sama trust you?”

Shalltear stepped forward to accuse.

“No, no, no, Ainz’s wisdom is beyond my reach. He has his own decisions to make. I just want to provide Ainz-sama with more accurate information.”

“Demiurge, you told Ainz-sama not to trust the servants of the Great Tomb, but to trust you who have already escaped from the Great Tomb. What is your intention?”

Albedo had already raised her battle axe, ready to charge at any time. Beside her, Cocytus, Sebastian, Aura, Mare, and Shalltear were also ready to fight.

"I escaped from the Great Tomb?"

Demiurge looked very surprised and looked at his own hands. It seemed that everything suddenly became strange.

"What, Demiurge, don't you know that you have become a neutral monster?"

Ainz’s voice, which once sounded like heavenly music to Demiurge, now hit him like a hammer in the heart.

Demiurge knelt down with his head pressed against the ground.

“Ainz-sama, I have absolutely not betrayed the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Please understand!”

: "Demiurge, it's easy to prove your loyalty."

Albedo said in a cold tone.

"You can kill yourself now. If you can do that, we will believe that you are loyal."

Demiurge looked at Albedo, then at the other Guardians, and finally his gaze lingered on Ainz for a moment.

Ainz said nothing.

Demiurge's body began to tremble slightly. He was not afraid of death, but he felt really uncomfortable right now.

"Yes……"

After saying this, Demiurge launched a fatal attack on himself, ending his own life.

Looking at Demiurge's body disappearing quickly on the ground, Ainz nodded and said:

"Everyone return to the throne room and prepare to revive Demiurge."
