Looking forward to another world.

Chapter 332 The Revealed Disguise

The next day, early in the morning.

Li Ge was walking on the streets where the road conditions were not good at all, while listening to the lively conversation around him, he headed towards the Adventurer's Guild.

Faintly, Li Ge could hear words such as "The Shining Golden Pavilion was burned down", "A mysterious magic caster who manipulated the undead appeared in the cemetery", "Anomalies occurred in the northern forest", etc., which made him seem indifferent on the surface , but there are some murmurs in the interior.

"I have participated in all these incidents."

He single-handedly aroused heated discussions in Ye-Rantel and caused several incidents overnight. To a certain extent, he was also the source of all evil.

Li Ge came to the Adventurer's Guild while thinking about such things. As a result, the adventurers here were discussing the same things, so that there was an empty scene in front of the bulletin board where the order was posted. It looks like no one is going to take the job at all.

Li Ge's arrival made the surrounding discussions slightly quieter.

This is not only because Li Ge is recognized as a Mithril-ranked adventurer, the highest-ranked adventurer in the fortress city of E-Rantel, but also because according to rumors, the burning of the Golden Light Pavilion has a lot to do with this .

Li Ge turned a deaf ear to this scene, as if he hadn't seen anything, he came to the counter.

He didn't come here to take on the job, but to get information.

The Shining Golden Pavilion was burned down. The guild has not yet given an answer as to how this matter will be dealt with in the future.

He also wanted to know how the city dealt with the cemetery after Li Ge left last night.

There is also the northern forest. I heard that the city that noticed the abnormality there has entrusted the guild to send adventurers to investigate.

It is naturally impossible for Li Ge to know the follow-up of these incidents. He can only come to the guild like this and ask the guild.

However, on Li Ge's way to the counter, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped him.

Li Ge stopped and looked at the other party.

"Isn't this His Excellency the Dark Warrior?"

He spoke calmly and indifferently, calling out the origin of the other party.

Those who came were Ainz who had rushed back to E-Rantel and his battle maid Narberal.

"What does he want?"

The adventurers around noticed the movement here, and immediately started talking about it.

Especially when they saw that Ainz, who was wearing a jet-black full-body armor and had a bronze medal hanging around his neck, dared to block the path of a Mithril-level adventurer, many of them showed gloating expressions.

If it was normal, Ainz might pay attention to the place and the reactions around him.

But today, his whole body released the pressure that only Li Ge could detect, as well as a faint sense of anxiety.

"...I have something to ask your Excellency."

Ainz suppressed the emotion in his voice, and said these words in a calm tone as much as possible.

"can."

Li Ge looked at Ainz as if seeing a hooked fish, and he couldn't help but draw the corners of his mouth.

"Let's go to the room prepared by the guild to talk."

There are several rooms on the upper floor of the guild, which are used for adventurers and clients to conduct various discussions.

Li Ge told the counter lady that he needed a room and asked the counter lady to go down and prepare.

"Let's go."

"……Um."

Li Ge and Ainz walked upstairs together, making Narberal also hasten to follow.

Not long after, the two came to a room similar to a conference room. There was a wooden table in the center of the room, and the same wooden chairs were placed around the table. The arrangement was extremely simple and could be used as a This place is enough for temporary conversation.

"........."

Right after Li Ge stepped into the room, he paused slightly as if he had sensed something.

Immediately afterwards, he continued to walk as if nothing had happened, and came to a position to sit down.

Ainz sat across from Lige.

Narberal stood behind Ainz, silent, only staring at Li Ge with bursts of hidden murderous intent in his eyes.

"Speak." Li Ge, as if he hadn't seen Narberal, let go of the superficial etiquette, and said to Ainz in a blunt tone for the first time: "Do you want to talk to me? What?"

Such a change of attitude, or the outpouring of nature, not only made Narberal's eyes more murderous, but also made Ainz frown that didn't exist.

Actually, if possible, Ainz didn't want to come face to face with Li Ge directly like this.

He didn't want to expose too much in front of Li Ge, and he didn't want Li Ge to notice too much, so if possible, it was his original wish to maintain that superficial friendship with Li Ge.

But this time, Ainz couldn't hold back.

no way.

"Regarding the abnormal movement that occurred in the northern forest last night, I would like to consult your Excellency on this matter."

Ainz tried to make his tone sound less hostile.

"Oh?" Li Ge raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "So, you already know about that vampire being dominated by spirit?"

As soon as these words came out, Ainz finally couldn't help standing up.

"It's really you!"

Narberal was even more straightforward, pulling out the sword at her waist fiercely, and was about to attack Li Ge.

"stop!"

Ainz shouted at Narberal.

"But……"

Narberal wanted to make a move, but Ainz stared at him coldly.

"I said stop, it's an order."

Hearing this, Narberal bit her lip and put away the sword very unwillingly.

Only then did Ainz take a deep breath. Even though his skeleton body didn't need to breathe at all and couldn't breathe, he still made this movement to calm his mood.

Of course, the forced calm unique to the undead also made Ainz suppress any emotions that were too strong every time.

Therefore, Ainz could continue to remain calm and sit down in front of Li Ge again.

"Is your Excellency really a participant in this matter?"

Ainz said these words in an unusually calm tone.

To this, Li Ge only responded in this way.

"Isn't it because you doubt me that you come to confront me face to face like this?"

Li Ge was still smiling as if nothing had happened just now.

"It's just a suspicion." Ainz said calmly, "At least, among the people I know, only Your Excellency has given me the feeling that I can do such a thing. In addition, I have reliable information to prove that last night, Your Excellency is not in E-Rantel."

"So that's why you suspected me?" Li Ge said without changing his expression, "Well, since you've said that, I don't need to hide it."

"Last night, I was indeed in the forest and fought with that vampire."

"However, don't get me wrong, it's not me who controls her spirit."

Let alone Narberal, even Ainz didn't believe Li Ge's words.

But his attitude was too calm, so leaving aside Narberal, Ainz suddenly felt hesitant.

After hesitating, Ainz actually didn't discuss this further, but asked a question that he cared most about.

"Are you a player?"

Ainz actually made such a question, which made Li Ge startled for a moment, and then laughed again.

"You are the second person to ask me this question." Li Geshi calmly said: "But unfortunately, I am not a player of "YGGDRASIL". "

You are lying.

Ainz wanted to yell so loudly.

He already mentioned the name "YGGDRASIL", how could he not be a player yet?
But before Ainz yelled out this sentence, Li Ge suddenly threw out a sentence.

"Don't you think that in this world, you are the only player of "YGGDRASIL"? "

Such a sentence made the non-existent face under Ainz's helmet seem to freeze imperceptibly.

The amount of information revealed by Li Ge's words is still very large.

At the very least, Ainz had to admit that his background had been seen through by the other party.

"Don't think that you are special, and don't think that you can hide well." Li Ge said indifferently: "In the past few hundred years, there have been many players who came to this world from "YGGDRASIL". It's just one of them. "

"So, don't be surprised because your background is seen through. As long as you know the existence of "YGGDRASIL" and the existence of players, you will basically recognize your background after meeting you face to face. "

"After all, the natives in this world are really not strong, and your strength itself falls into the eyes of those insiders, which is simply the most conspicuous player proof?"

These words caused quite a stir in Ainz's heart.

It's not that he didn't think that there might be players other than himself in this world, and he even has a few candidates in his mind, but, according to Li Ge, the connection between this world and "YGGDRASIL" seems to be deeper than he imagined. look.

"What is the connection between this world and "YGGDRASIL"? "

"Apart from me, who else is a player of "YGGDRASIL"? "

"Why were we suddenly teleported into this world?"

Ainz threw these most essential questions at Li Ge.

This, perhaps is the biggest doubt in the mind of any player from "YGGDRASIL", right?
pity……

"These are all secrets related to the world, right?"

Li Ge's pointed words made Ainz understand what he meant.

"...what do I need to pay?"

Ainz asked in a deep voice.

He knew that this might be his only chance to get in touch with the secrets of this world.

If the connection between this world and "YGGDRASIL" is really that deep, and if many people in this world know about the existence of the player, then his future course of action will have to be drastically changed.

This matter is related to how the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick will gain a foothold in this world in the future. It is self-evident that it is so important that Ainz temporarily put aside the matter of Shalltear.

Under such circumstances, Li Ge made such a sound.

"Did I say that? I have a side job as an intelligence dealer!"

Rieg held out a hand to Ainz.

"Detailed information on magic."

"A rare magic item."

"A rare treasure."

"That's all I want, it depends on whether you can afford it."

　I still have a low-grade fever and feel uncomfortable...
