Then he noticed several humans who had probably been hunted by goblins, now completely dismembered. Senju softly uttered, "Extinction!"

In an instant, everything in this goblin tribe turned into stone statues, then into dust and vanished. With a gust of wind, only a smooth stone slab remained.

"Hmph, what a mood-breaker," Senju shook his head somewhat unhappily, his figure vanishing instantly. When he reappeared, he was right next to Rimuru. But isn't this guy having a bit too much fun?!

This is a large hall in Nazarick. The spider is happily eating various snacks, and in her arms is a soft, fluffy thing - Rimuru. Rimuru is eating the snacks that the spider is feeding him while talking happily to her, showing no signs of being in a hurry at all!

Furthermore, it seems that the spider girl regards Rimuru as her first friend, the first slime she can communicate with. Rimuru also enjoys talking to pretty girls, and the two get along very well!

"

"Ah, boss, you got here so fast," Rimuru glanced at Senju, who was rubbing her temples. "You've been having a really good time! And little spider, can you walk now?"

"Huh? Hahaha," Spider chuckled dryly, "I've practiced, but my body isn't very easy to control!"

As she spoke, her hand involuntarily reached for a piece of pastry beside her. Senju's eyes twitched involuntarily. It was indeed hard to control. What the hell?! Senju mentally flipped the table. "You better control your appetite!"

"Oh, right, we gave Spider-Son a new name, White," Rimuru jumped out of Spider-Son's arms, then transformed into human form and sat down to the side. However, this body seemed a bit darker than his original form. But the name 'White'...

“Well, I know someone with that name,” Senju shook his head, thought for a moment, and then said, “How about you be called ‘Shiroori’? The ‘ori’ in ‘textile’ is related to spiders weaving webs.”

Well, actually, Senju has a few other names in mind, but she can't just call the other person White Spider or White Spider, right? White Oriole sounds better, and it's also related to the original character.

“Shiroori, that’s a nice name,” Spider-Chi, no, Shiroori touched her hair and nodded to Senju. “Then, from now on, I’ll be called Shiroori.”

“Hmm,” Senju nodded, then looked around. “By the way, where did your teacher and classmates go?”

"Ah, Teacher, you and Mr. Momonga's men went to find the other students. The other students leveled up with the help of those players," Shiraori said, sounding somewhat dejected. "Because I'm currently unable to move around easily, I stayed behind."

“I see,” Senju nodded, while Rimuru explained, “Shiraori’s situation is similar to Ainz’s. After losing the support of this system, she has forgotten how to use various skills.”

“But the two are somewhat different. Ainz can instinctively use some magic and control his power, but Shirai doesn’t know any magic at all. I can only teach him some simple magic control techniques right now,” Rimuru said apologetically. Senju rolled his eyes at him. This guy has the Great Sage System that can analyze everything, but he didn’t study it at all. Now that he doesn’t have the Great Sage System in his body, he’s in trouble!

Chapter 1257 System

“Magic,” Senju said, sitting down to eat some snacks and looking at Shiroi. “I remember there’s a big library here with a lot of magical knowledge. And aren’t there many magicians in Nazarick? They should be able to teach you.”

"Hahaha," Shirai seemed a little embarrassed, "Well, Mr. Momonga did send someone to teach me and even sent some books over, but I couldn't understand some of them."

"Hmm?" Senju looked puzzled and glanced at Rimuru beside her. He should be able to understand, right? But Rimuru shook his head. "Actually, the rules are different on both sides. Momonga's 'magic' is somewhat different from this world. Of course, experts aren't afraid, but beginners really have a hard time adapting. Most importantly, the language is different. The text in the magic book isn't Japanese at all!"

"I see," Senju nodded, putting away the magic books he had been about to take out. He had originally wanted to give some magic books to Shiraori and Ainz Ooal Gown to learn, but he forgot that magic is actually a manifestation of the laws of the world. Of course, he could ignore this difference, but if they used Senju's magic books to learn magic here, it would be like trying to learn Japanese with a Chinese-English dictionary, which would be completely useless!

“Oh, right,” Senju suddenly remembered someone, the pervert who tore clothes in front of her last time. He was a royal palace magician, and he should be useful in teaching Shiraori. “There are quite a few magicians here. Shiraori, you can go find someone to learn from. With so much magic power now, you should be able to learn easily.”

"Is that so? But magic... going to a magic academy doesn't seem so bad," Shiraori chuckled to herself, seemingly lost in thought. But a magic academy? This kid's been reading too many novels, hasn't she? But maybe there really is one here.

Shaking her head, Senju looked at Rimuru beside her. "Rimuru, let me take you back now. It's been several days since you left there, and your people must be very worried."

“There’s no need to rush that. The Great Sage should take good care of my body,” Rimuru said casually. Suddenly, he was no longer in a hurry. “While I’m in this state, I’ll personally learn some magic and see how big the difference is without the Great Sage’s assistance.”

“Is that so? However,” Senju drew a magic circle in the air and then injected it into Rimuru’s body, “with this location, you can travel between the two sides at any time.”

“I see,” Rimuru touched it for a moment and then understood how it worked. Simply put, it’s like the logout screen in a virtual game. Of course, it also includes information to locate Rimuru’s physical body, allowing him to transfer his consciousness over.

After dealing with this matter, Senju originally planned to leave, but Ainz came over and said he had something to discuss with him, so the two of them went out.

In the long corridors of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Momonga seemed deeply troubled. "Lord Senju, how can we sever our connection with the world?"

"Leaving this world, huh?"

"Hmm? Why do you ask that?" Senju asked curiously. "Didn't you become a god here? Why did you leave? Isn't it good here?"

“A few days ago, I still thought so,” Ainz seemed a little hesitant, then shook his head, “but after I learned some information from that teacher, I realized that the situation in this world is very different from what I imagined.”

"Why do you say that? Does that teacher have any information?" Senju asked, puzzled. Apart from being a bit closed off, this world seemed fine. It was just a fantasy world, wasn't it?

"By the way, Lord Senju, what do you think the 'system' of this world is?" Momonga didn't answer Senju's question, but instead asked another one. Senju looked up at the ceiling, then smiled at Momonga, "The system of this world? Isn't it just a tool to help creatures improve their abilities and facilitate evolution?"

“No,” the flying squirrel shook its head, looking quite wise. “I’ve known this principle for a long time: there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Game companies develop various games to make money off players. The gods of another world must have their own motives for creating something similar. Otherwise, why would they go to such lengths to maintain this massive project? Normally, gods would do it for faith, but hardly anyone knows about this so-called D! What are they planning behind the scenes?”

“You’re right,” Senju nodded. On the surface, his organization could help many worlds, but in reality, it contained the demands of Senju and the worlds. He might occasionally give away benefits for free, but few fools would persist for thousands of years, let alone D, who called himself an evil god.

"So, D actually harvested something from the creatures here through the system," Senju murmured, then clapped his hands. "Could it be souls?! Collecting the souls of various powerful beings as a source of subordinates?"

“That’s possible, but not quite right,” the flying squirrel shook its head slightly, then explained in detail, “What she gained from this world are skills. All the skills that every creature possesses eventually belong to D. Just think about how much skill and attribute D would accumulate over such a long period of time! It’s like having countless alt accounts leveling up for her, it’s too cheating.”

"It actually has such an effect?" Senju's heart stirred. Or rather, if this model were applied to his own world, the gains would be enormous. Ainz Ooal Gown waved his fist and continued, but this time he was somewhat annoyed. "Moreover, when someone reaches the level of godhood, their previous accumulations are taken away by D when the system leaves. They call it because the system can no longer assist them. If my original power hadn't been from another world, I would probably be just an ordinary skeleton by now!"

"Sow a seed in spring, reap a thousandfold in autumn," Thousand Hands shook his head slightly, understanding why D said he wouldn't come—it was probably because he didn't want to come. It's like a game company CEO spending money on their own game—they just send a GM directly!

"It seems this is D's farm. No wonder the previous generation's hero and demon king attacked her. Although this is nothing to ordinary people, those powerful individuals don't want to be the leeks that are harvested one after another!"

“That’s right,” Ainz nodded, then clasped his hands together. “I don’t want to turn myself and my friends into food for others, but right now, I’m bound here by the so-called MA energy, so I wanted to ask you, Lord Senju, how to leave this place.”

Chapter 1258 Casual Chat

“Is that so?” Senju looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through the surrounding walls. “It seems I underestimated this system. So-called cheats are not uncommon, are they? Stealing everything from the other party’s account is also a normal thing.”

He had underestimated the system before, treating it as just an auxiliary program. Although he knew that D was absorbing something, he didn't pay attention. Now it seems that Senju was wrong. Although he and Rimuru's control over the world is stable, they are deeply connected. They are interdependent, sharing both prosperity and adversity.

But this system is different. It's just a tool for D to extract benefits from this world. Even if this world is ruined, she can simply switch to another world and start over.

In this incident, the world was clearly on the verge of collapse. If it were Senju or Rimuru, they would have been frantically trying to repair the world. But D was just watching the show and had no intention of taking action to solve the problem. Even when Senju jumped out, D just put on a show for no real effect. Anyway, she didn't have to do anything. It's great that someone is helping for free!

"Your current situation isn't very good," Senju said, narrowing his eyes as he looked at Ainz. His current situation was somewhat similar to Yakumo Yukari's; they were fundamentally connected to the origin of the world, growing stronger as the world grew stronger and weaker as the world weakened.

However, Ainz's true nature is not from this side. There is still some distance between him and the origin of this world. It is possible to forcibly sever the connection, but without the support of the world's source power, Ainz's current power would probably shrink a lot!

After giving a brief explanation, Momonga remained silent for a moment before asking about something else, "So, what about my companions?"

"Them?" Qian Shou asked Zhou.

He looked around and then noticed a player outside. He shook his head and said, "They've probably been poisoned by something called 'experience.' They might not have been affected before, but as you know, the Judgment the day before yesterday burned away their original power. The level they've gained now is actually due to the system here. There are many 'viruses' that have infiltrated their souls."

"Is that so? That's about what I expected. I wonder if this experiment will be successful," Momonga stroked his chin, while Senju looked at him curiously. "What kind of experiment? Can it cleanse the poison from this system?"

“It should be possible,” Ainz nodded hesitantly, “However, as an experiment, I would like to ask Lord Senju for permission to resurrect Demiurge!”

Senju stopped and looked at Ainz, who had also stopped. Ainz looked over, his eye sockets seemingly gleaming with an inextinguishable flame. After a moment of eye contact, Senju finally spoke, "This time, can you make a demon cease to be a demon?"

“Yes, I can,” Flying Squirrel replied earnestly. “If we had explained things clearly, these misunderstandings wouldn’t have happened. It was my fault. I will definitely keep him in check this time!”

“Then I’ll trust you this once,” Thousand Hands said slowly, his face serious. “If there’s a next time, I will wipe out the entire Great Tomb of Nazarick!”

“There won’t be a next time,” Ainz said seriously. Senju nodded and continued walking forward. “However, I’m not saying you can’t kill people. War, self-defense, and so on are all acceptable methods to annihilate the enemy, but wanton slaughter of intelligent life is not allowed, and you should do less inhumane things.”

“I understand,” Ainz said, getting up as well. “My original idea was to establish a reasonable country, but unfortunately, such a big mistake happened along the way.”

“Yes, but,” Thousand Hands shook his head slightly, “even if the undead under your command are fairer than the nobles, even if you ask for less than those nobles, even if the people of other countries under your command live better, in the end they will still rebel against you. Do you know why?”

"Are those who are not of our kind necessarily of different minds?" Momonga thought for a while before speaking, then looked at his bone claws with a wry smile, "This is really difficult to solve, the barriers between races."

“That’s just one aspect. While appearance is important, it’s not the only reason,” Thousand Hands nodded, then shook his head. “The most important thing is the composition of a country’s power structure. Right now, your country’s upper echelons are all Nazarick people, aren’t they? How would they know the demands of the people here? Misunderstandings are bound to happen sooner or later.”

"But what will happen if we let them into the decision-making level? Well, we both know what kind of creatures humans are. It's inherently difficult for monsters to establish a kingdom, and I have no interest in managing such matters. By the way, you can ask Rimuru. I heard him say that he established a united kingdom of monsters in that world."

“Lord Rimuru,” Ainz nodded, but when he thought of Rimuru, he strangely recalled the slime bath he took in the bathhouse. Speaking of which, that was quite comfortable. He wondered what it would feel like to use a high-grade one.

"By the way, Lord Senju," a question suddenly popped into Ainz's mind, "what exactly is the difference between humans, demi-humans, demons, and monsters? To me, everyone is equal!"

“Uh,” Senju glanced at him speechlessly. If she didn’t know that Ainz was a transmigrator, Senju would have thought he was a wise man from the native world. It was a pity that a transmigrator asked this question. Difference? Equality? This matter only depends on where you are.

For someone like the Senju, all these races are the same to him, but he is closer to humans, after all, they share the same appearance and values. But Ainz Ooal Gown probably thinks about this from the perspective of a 'king', right? He instinctively finds reasons for his rule, since the four races are equal, then the issue of rule is no longer a problem.

“It is indeed equal, I think so too, but it’s different for others,” Senju shook her head, ending the question. “By the way, I heard from Shiraori that you sent your men to help that teacher find students. How many have you found?”

"Shiroori?" Momonga was puzzled for a moment, then realized that it was probably Spider Girl. "They just set off a few days ago to find a boy named Sakurazaki Kazunari. The teacher said that the reincarnated person is in great danger and may die in the next ten days or so."

"Sakurasaki Kazunari?" Senju habitually did some divination, then discovered that with the system's permissions, the so-called 'divination' was far too easy. However, the result of the divination was, "That's not right. According to the calculation, this boy is perfectly fine, and his future is bright. Has something gone wrong?"

Chapter 1259 The Reincarnated Ones

"Momonga, I'm going to go find that Kazunari student now. We'll continue talking about your matter later," Senju said, and then teleported away.

"Prophecy, huh?" Momonga muttered to himself as Senju teleported away. Then he looked at the scene outside. "Magic is really interesting. But I really need to regain my power as soon as possible."

"Alright, let's begin, the world-conquering plan!" Momonga silently said to himself. Although he and Senju had talked for a while about how to escape this world, it was just a distraction; for the current world...

They are actually quite interested in the 'system'. Since the system has administrators, isn't it normal to change them?

On the other side, Senju teleported to a castle, the place where Sakurasaki Kazunari was reincarnated. However, this was clearly a nobleman's residence. I wonder what the identity of this reincarnated person is? What should I do if I'm reincarnated as a nobleman? Is this some kind of plot?

"Who goes there!" Several people jumped out from the surrounding area. These were clearly guards, and they looked warily at the guy in gray armor. How did he get here?!

Senju ignored them and followed his senses to walk to the side. The guards immediately drew their swords and slashed at him, only to find that the swords were broken. Senju didn't even flinch. The guards were frozen in place with their broken swords. They then attacked again, but they couldn't affect Senju at all.

"Binding!" The commotion finally alerted a mage, but the magic dissipated as soon as it got close to Senju. The people around didn't dare to make a move for a moment, but the number of people around them increased. Senju walked towards the house and then stopped in the corridor. A young man was standing in front of him, and there were several guards behind him.

This must be the owner of this place. Senju ignored them and looked behind them. There was a young woman holding a baby. Surrounded by maids, she was walking quickly in another direction.

"Here he is?" In a flash, the baby in the other person's arms appeared beside Senju. However, Senju did not hold him, but used magic to levitate him. The people around were excited, but no one dared to make a move. "What do you want? Let go of my child!"

Senju looked at the baby, whose eyes clearly held wisdom. He waved his hand, and a magical shield appeared around the baby to protect it. "Well then, let's go."

As she spoke, Senju and the baby disappeared, leaving the surrounding people stunned. Then, chaos erupted, and Senju reappeared next to the teacher.

She is currently riding a dragon, accompanied by a maid named Yuri Alpha, the eldest sister of the Pleiades maid squad, a level 89 battle maid, and a dark elf named Mare Momoro Fiore, a frail cross-dressing boy who was originally a level 100 guardian of the sixth level of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and is now a level 91 nature messenger who can use various plant-related magic and also keeps two level 90 dragons.

"Huh?!" The appearance of Senju startled the two slightly, and they involuntarily became defensive. They relaxed a bit after seeing who it was. "So it's Lord Senju."

"Hmm," Senju nodded, looking at them. "Momonga sent you out on a mission? You're good candidates. By the way, how many reincarnated individuals have you found?"

“Well, we need to rescue Yicheng now; he's in the most dangerous situation,” Philimes said from the side, but her eyes were fixed on the floating baby. “This… could it be…?”

"Yes, this is the one you're looking for," Senju glanced at her, surprised that she was the one to speak out among the three. However, it was clear that Ainz had put a lot of thought into getting the three of them together, and hadn't just given Filimes a perfunctory answer.

"Waaaaah!" The baby next to him cried out. He wanted to speak, but his body couldn't produce accurate sounds yet, and the people around him didn't understand baby talk.

Senju shook his head slightly. This reincarnated person had extraordinary potential, and Senju had also identified him as having the incredibly powerful talent 'Infinite Growth'. Unfortunately, this was a skill granted by the system, and Senju wasn't very interested in it. After giving the infant a little nudge, Senju taught him the skill of telepathy.

"Who are you?" A voice in Japanese came from beside the baby. Filimes' eyes lit up. "It's me, teacher. Okazaki Kanami, Kazunari-kun, is that you?"

"Um..." The baby looked at the blonde twin-tailed elf girl opposite him, a look of distress on his face. "Um, Oka-chan, when did you transmigrate here? You've grown so big! By the way, did the other classmates transmigrate here too?"

“Yes, I’ve already found several classmates,” Flimes nodded, then patted her chest proudly. “However, everyone’s time travel time should be around the same. I’m also a little over a year old now.”

“A little over a year old,” the baby said with a subtle look in his eyes, while Mare timidly bowed to Senju, “Hello, Lord Senju.”

"Hmm," Senju nodded, but his thoughts were wandering. How many cross-dressers had Senju seen before? Those players really let loose when creating their characters. But this cross-dresser wasn't as timid as he seemed on the outside. Otherwise, the Judgment wouldn't have removed his level back then.

However, these people have been on the road for several days, so the progress is a bit slow. "Alright, I'll help you out and gather all the reincarnated ones together."

As he spoke, Thousand Hands waved his hand, and everyone returned to the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Thousand Hands then waved his hand again, opening a series of portals around them and pulling all the reincarnated individuals over.

However, the most dangerous one inside was actually an egg, located in Nazarick's kitchen. It was unclear when it had been placed there, but if the transmigrator wasn't careful...

It became someone else's extra meal!
