I like traveling the most

——I will win.

…Why did I make such a boast at that time? It was so embarrassing!

In the corner, Ainz covered his forehead.

He didn’t know what happened at that time. Maybe he was angry about Shalltear’s betrayal, or maybe he didn’t want to be looked down upon by Krillin. He blurted out that he would win.

He was a little arrogant.

After all, his opponent was the strongest guardian of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. To be honest, he was not sure he could defeat him.

However——

The arrow was on the string and had to be shot!

Not only to stabilize the loyalty of the Great Tomb guardians, but also because he would never allow his NPCs (children) to be abused by him, so he must win this time!

He must be fully prepared for this.

“Albedo, follow me.”

“Yes.”

Ainz planned to go to the Treasure Hall, no, to be more precise, the Weapon Hall deep in the Treasure Hall, where the artifacts given to him by his companions who had escaped were placed.

Ainz kept them for a while so that they could return to the game someday, and didn't sell any of the equipment. He didn't expect that they would be useful this time.

Crossing the golden mountain range that was used to confuse outsiders, he arrived at the door of the Weapon Hall.

No, should I say door?

It was a shadow that looked like a bottomless pit and was attached to the wall in the shape of a door.

By the way, what was the password?

This was a door that needed a specific password to be opened. A magician or a thief character might be able to force the door open, but Ainz had not learned that kind of magic, nor did he have that kind of special skills, so he had to say the password to open it... Well, I forgot the password.

This was understandable.

Because there were countless mechanisms like this in Nazarick, and I could remember the places I often went to, but I didn't have the opportunity to come to the Treasure Hall before, so it was impossible to remember the password of such a place. I only came here to pay the Nazarick management fee with the money I earned. I haven't been here for many years.

After thinking for a long time, Ainz still couldn't remember the password, so he finally gave up and said a universal password that applies to all mechanisms.

"—— Ainz Ooal Gown's glory will last forever."

The dark door responded to this sentence, and a large paragraph of text appeared like an image emerging on the water.

"The Jade Record is really a perfectionist."

Ainz sighed.

Twenty percent of the small mechanisms in the Great Tomb were designed by him. The extremely exquisite design once consumed a lot of resources, causing other companions to complain to him constantly.

What a nostalgic past...

Thinking back, Ainz finally got the door opening password from the depths of his memory.

"In this way, you will take all the glory of the world, and all darkness will stay away from you... right?"

As if to respond to Ainz's intentions, the black shadow was sucked into a point, and soon the original black shadow disappeared without a trace, leaving only a fist-sized black sphere floating in the air.

Because the black shadow that had been covering it until now disappeared, it was possible to see inside from the opened hole.

It was a well-managed space, different from other places before. If you want to make a metaphor, the most appropriate description is like a museum exhibition hall. The dimly lit room was very long and extended all the way inward.

The height from the floor to the ceiling was about five meters, and the width was ten meters. This height was not designed based on humans, but was designed based on their aliens and Grem.

The floor was paved with stones that emitted black light. It looked like a huge piece of stone, reflecting the faint light from the ceiling, revealing a quiet and solemn atmosphere.

There were also countless weapons neatly arranged on both sides, which looked quite spectacular.

"Go in."

Without waiting for the response from the people behind him, Ainz walked directly into the armory.

What greeted them were broadswords, greatswords, armor-piercing swords, fist swords, double knives, machetes, backhand knives, etc.

Of course, the weapons decorated here were not just swords, but also axes, bows, guns, hammers... Just the rough classification alone, the number is already too numerous to count.

In addition, there were many flashy weapons, and I don't know if they can be called weapons. Like some weapons that cannot be put into the scabbard at all, and only care about the appearance. No, there are definitely more weapons of this type.

Now is the time to show the arsenal.

If people from the outside see these weapons, they will definitely be dazzled and unable to control themselves, and it may cause disputes in a country.

Ainz, who already has a general understanding of the world, believes that such a thing will definitely happen once the tomb is exposed.

The group watched these weapons from the side and walked quietly in the arsenal. They walked about a hundred meters, which is about the distance where thousands of weapons are displayed. There is a rectangular room at the end of the arrival.

It may be used to receive guests. There are only sofas and tables in the empty room.

Looking left and right, you can see some road entrances and exits, which are very similar to the entrance when Ainz and his friends came in, and it feels more like an ancient tomb.

A figure suddenly appeared on the way forward.

He has a strange appearance. Although he has a human body, he has a head similar to a twisted octopus. His pale skin mixed with some purple looks like a corpse. He wriggles six tentacles extending from his mouth to his thighs, and looks at the group of people with his pupil-less blue-white chaotic eyes.

"Lord Cui Yulu?! No, that's not right! Who are you! Even if you want to pretend to be the Supreme, I'm not so stupid that I can't even recognize my own creator!"

Albedo's cry of surprise was immediately rejected by himself, and she immediately stood in front of Ainz and loudly questioned the pretender in front of him.

When the situation was tense and ready to explode, Ainz said, "Enough. Pandora's Actor, return to your original state."

The body of the Jade Record twisted.

After a beat, another alien appeared in the place where the fake Jade Record was originally, but it was a different person.

The face was quite flat, and the raised parts such as the nose were flattened. There were only three empty holes in the eyes and mouth. There were no eyeballs, teeth and tongue, only three black holes that looked like children painted black with a pen. It was like a pink egg with a bald head, without even a single hair.

Such a strange character, like Narberal, is a double phantom. He is the level 100 NPC set by Ainz himself, responsible for managing this treasure hall.

——Pandora's Actor.

Good at disguise, can copy 45 appearances, and can also use about 80% of the original ability.

The badge on his hat was the guild emblem of Ainz Ooal Gown, and the uniform he wore was quite similar to the uniform of the NC Guards, and even his every move was very similar.

After pressing his ankles together to make a sound, he exaggeratedly placed his right hand next to his hat to salute.

"Welcome to my creator, Momo-sama!"

"... You look energetic."

"Yes, I look energetic every day! By the way, why did you come this time? You even brought the Guardian General with you."

He looked at Albedo.

Albedo, who was standing next to Ainz, was jealous of the fact that Ainz was the creator of Pandora's Actor, and pouted where Ainz couldn't see.

Ainz, who had something on his mind, said: "Go to the innermost secret vault and get the world props."

"What did you say! Has the time to exert their power come?!"

Pandora's Actor pretended to be surprised, and this attitude made Ainz frown.

Forget about the costumes, why do the movements have to be so exaggerated?

No, he knew why.

Because it was Ainz who created Pandora's Actor, which means that his every move is set up for Ainz to think is cool and proud of.

It's really...

I always thought people wearing military uniforms were cool, and since they are actors, their movements should be exaggerated, but after watching him, who actually has intelligence, make deliberately exaggerated movements...

"How lame."

Ainz couldn't help but sigh.

Fortunately, his inner thoughts were spoken softly and no one heard them, otherwise his dignity as the creator would be damaged.

It's simply a black history!

If the other members of the Great Tomb were here now, they would definitely laugh until they fell down.

No, he had to cheer up again.

As an undead, he didn't have time to feel that kind of mental blow.

"You are right. I plan to take away [Greed and Desirelessness], [Hygiea Cup], [Hundreds of Millions of Blades], and [Mountains and Rivers Map]."

"...What do I do with the remaining two?"

"Just leave them there. They are items that can only be used once. Because they are powerful, you must carefully consider the timing of use, or know how to get them again before using them."

"Yes, I understand."

Those super crossbow-level items are powerful enough to be called killers, which can turn decay into magic, and even change the whole world.

In the game, there are a total of 200 world-class items. [Ainz Ooal Gown] is not the strongest game guild, but they also have eleven... Including the ones that were stolen, there are a total of twelve world-class items.

And these powerful world-class items are exactly what Ainz can do to fight Shalltear.

He smiled without changing his expression.

"By the way, I'm going to the mausoleum later. Has anything happened here?"

"No. Because everything here belongs to Lord Momo and others, how could anything happen?" Pandora pointed around with a tone and action like a drill, and sighed loudly: "But it's still a bit regrettable. I thought Lord Momo came here to send me."

Ainz began to look at this alien.

He did think about using it. After all, Pandora's setting is at the top level of Nazarick in terms of wisdom and strategy. Although she usually uses these wisdom and strategies in strange places, it is still difficult to abandon her wisdom at a critical moment.

Not only that, Pandora Alec's ability can be applied in a wide range, and sometimes it can even replace all guardians.

But how to use it?

The reason Ainz created him was not to fight or run an organization, but to preserve the figure of this [Ainz Ooal Gown] and leave the appearance of his companions.

Forget it, I can't use it for the time being.

"You are the last trump card, and we cannot send you to do menial tasks."

"Thank you very much. However, Ainz-sama. Although I know it is a bit disrespectful, if the situation has arisen where the world-class props must be used, it would be better for me to leave the Treasure Hall and act on other floors."

With an expression that seemed to be about to say something but stopped, Pandora bowed her head exaggeratedly.

This idea is correct.

Pandora is a talent, but it would be foolish to let him just show off and lose more valuable treasures. This situation should be treated as an emergency and he should be used, and the gold coins in the Treasure Hall can also be transferred to the throne room.

But...but!

Seeing Pandora slowly put one hand on her chest and strongly recommend herself, Ainz's mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

His creation was full of obvious "I'm cool" emotions in its movements and postures. If it was a really handsome man, such words and deeds might be suitable, but he was just a boiled egg head, it was too out of place, and even made Ainz feel embarrassed.

Let him walk in the big tomb, isn't it a walking black history?

What a joke, social death on the spot!

Ainz stared at Pandora's Actor quietly for a while, then took out a ring from the space and threw it to the other party.

"This is the ring of Ainz Ooal Gown, and its ability is..."

"This is a pre-prepared."

Ainz raised his hand to shut up Pandora who wanted to continue talking, and Pandora showed a regretful expression after closing her mouth.

"Albedo, let the servants of the Great Tomb of Nazarick know of his existence first. Until then, Pandora Actor, you can only travel back and forth between the throne room and the treasure hall."

"As you command." X2

The two responded.

Pandora pressed her heels together with the strength to make a sound, stretched her fingers until even the fingertips could not be stretched, and saluted very solemnly. To put it bluntly, she was just pretending. This guy is not bad, and his ability is not bad, but it's a pity that...

If Ainz could blush, he would be blushing now.

Why did he design him with such a personality? In the past, I actually thought that was cool. No, although I still think that military uniforms are a bit cool now...

"Hey, Pandora, come with me."

Ainz grabbed the creation's shoulders and pulled him aside. With his back to Albedo, the two whispered under her jealous gaze.

"I want to ask you something very important. I am your creator and the object of your loyalty, right?"

"That's right, Master Ainz. I was created by you. If you ask me to fight other supreme beings, I will do my best without hesitation."

"Is that so... Then, whether it is an order or a request from the master... can you please not salute?"

The creature stared at its creator with its hollow eyes.

There was a deep confusion in his eyes.

"Well... how should I put it? Isn't saluting weird? Don't salute anymore. The uniform... you don't need to change it if you look strong, but please don't salute anymore."

"Wenn esmenines Gottes Wille."

"Is that German? Don't talk like that, either. No, you can talk like that, but please don't say it in front of me, please."

"Well, well..."

"I really beg you. I never thought I would have to force myself to calm down because of something like this. It's more embarrassing than riding a giant hamster."

"Yes, yes."

For the first time, Pandora's Actor looked shocked, and her answer was a little strange.

Unconsciously, they were close enough to kiss, and Ainz turned his face away.

Although he wanted to have a good talk with him about this matter, the situation was urgent, so he would stop here.

He had more important things to do.

His son is here
