Chapter 553 What exactly do you take life for?!
Demiurge is not only intelligent; as a demon skilled at understanding people's hearts, his observation and insight are also quite strong.

As the strongest member of the delegation, Evilue was able to sense their level and strength and feel the difference in power, which was not surprising to Demiurge.

However, aside from the initial look of fear, a hint of realization appeared in the other person's eyes later on.

Although the other party concealed it very well, Demiurge still managed to catch it.

So that's how it is. Were we exposed?

Although I cannot confirm it, I think that's roughly the case. I am truly sorry; it was all my fault that led to this oversight.

However, killing her now should ensure the news doesn't leak out.

Stop, Demiurge! Have you forgotten what I said before?

It is not advisable for us to wage war against the kingdom now. Before we have a thorough understanding of the true nature of King Shylo and the third prince of the kingdom, it would be extremely disadvantageous for us to start a war with them rashly.

Don't forget, there are other powerful beings in this world, controlling Shalltear's World-Class Item and the forces behind it. If they were to intervene while we are at war with the Kingdom, wouldn't we be caught in a pincer movement?

【But Lord Ainz, if this woman brings the news back to the kingdom, won't the kingdom also turn against us after learning the truth?】

So, if you were the third prince of the kingdom, do you think you would rashly turn against us after seeing the power we now possess?

Faced with Ainz's question, Demiurge pondered for a moment, then looked at Ainz with admiration.

The third prince of the kingdom was undoubtedly just as intelligent as the emperor of the empire.

After witnessing the power of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, even if there are grudges, they would probably entrust the Void Serpent to them and then secretly unite with other kingdoms to find a way to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

All they needed to do at the Great Tomb of Nazarick was maintain a facade of friendship with the kingdom while secretly eliminating all of the kingdom's allies!
Wise people are cautious, and the kingdom will not take the initiative to attack their Great Tomb of Nazarick without being absolutely certain.

However, if they really kill Lajus and the others, then it is possible that the third prince of the kingdom will be driven to desperation.

After all, according to the intelligence Sebastian had gathered before, the kingdom's third prince seemed to be quite fond of this female adventurer...

"You must be Ainz Ooal Gown, right? I am Emperor Gilkneferuun Farodel."

A while ago, some nobles in our country, without my knowledge, commissioned some workers from the Empire to harass Your Excellency's residence.

I have now taken the nobleman's head and brought it to Your Excellency to apologize. Therefore, I beg Your Excellency to forgive my country's mistake in this matter.

Old Man Ainz and Little Demiurge started a private chat, which Emperor Gilknefer of the Empire was naturally unaware of.

However, seeing the ever-silent Ainz Ooal Gown, and after sensing the power of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Gilknefer couldn't withstand the pressure and was the first to apologize.

However, when faced with the Emperor's apology and the offering of the scapegoat noble's head by his attendants, Old Bones did not give Gilkenif much face. Instead, he said bluntly, "Your Majesty, whether or not to accept your apology is another matter. Before that, I would like to invite you all to watch a good show."

As Lao Gu finished speaking, he snapped his fingers.

Soon, magical images, like virtual projections, appeared before the people of Gilknefer.

Gilkenif and the others were extremely surprised when they saw the images projected onto the magic screen.

Because they discovered that the people appearing on the screen were actually Imperial workers who had lost contact with them before.

Gilkenif had initially believed that all the workers who came to explore the ruins were dead. But now it seems that the situation is not so simple.

So what does the other party mean by this action?
“These vile scoundrels who have invaded our Great Tomb of Nazarick, we are actually capable of killing them immediately.”

However, we did not do that, because in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, even the desire for a quick death is a mercy and a luxury.

For these tomb raiders who trampled on the sacred site I and my companions built, I believe we must inflict utter despair upon them, and then give them death.

Compared to adventurers bound by guild rules, so-called workers are a group of people who act purely out of self-interest.

Whether it's assassination, theft, or murder and arson, these people will do it as long as there is enough profit to be made.

This is also why the workers have a poor reputation.

Although they were used by the emperor, blinded by enormous profits, the deaths of imperial workers themselves do not deserve the sympathy of others.

But looking at the scene before them, Gilkenif, Lajus, and the others couldn't help but clench their fists, suppressing immense anger within them.

They didn't sympathize with the money-grubbing Imperial workers; they were simply outraged by the actions of Ainz Ooal Gown and his ilk.

The "Dragon Hunter" was completely wiped out by a fully armed skeleton army.

Encountering the terrifying "Heavy Crusher," whose body, including its internal organs, is completely devoured.

They encountered the lizardman "Tianwu".

And finally, the "Four Strategists" they encountered with Solusian, who had the lowest justice value among the Pleiades stars, and Lupusreina.

For adventurers and workers who live on the edge, facing death is a common occurrence.

However, these Imperial workers were subjected to almost inhumane torture and murder when they faced the people of the Great Tomb of Nazarick!

Killing someone isn't enough to make one's head fall to the ground, but as Ainz Ooal Gown said before, even the desire for a painless death in the Great Tomb of Nazarick is a luxury.

"Your Majesty, would you like a special program that I have prepared for you?"

Seeing Gilkenif's grim expression and his clenched fists, Ainz Ooal Gown, seated on his throne, still managed to ask a question.

These damned monsters actually take pleasure in toying with other people's lives!

Although that's what he thought in his heart, Gilkenif didn't dare show the slightest dissatisfaction on the surface. Instead, he forced an ugly smile and said, "For those despicable tomb raiders who disturbed His Highness Gong's peace, they certainly deserved it..."

When he said those words, Gilkenif's voice trembled with extreme anger and fear.

But no matter how angry he was, he had to suppress it for the moment!

If things turn sour here, then everything will really go as the other party wants, and he will have to endure the humiliation!

"What do you take life for?! Taking pleasure in the lives of others, building your own happiness on the death of others, does that really give you such a sense of accomplishment?!"

While Gilkenif was still enduring humiliation, Lajus on the other side couldn't stand it anymore!
