Final battle of Camelot still continued (215)

“Stop!” Ainz stepped forward as Artoria's spear glinted in her hands, interested in her words and remarks.

“Wait a second, what exactly did you want to say about saving humanity and your plan!?”

Ainz had been preparing for this confrontation for a long time, honing the best of his excuses, remembering the most appropriate phrases and copious visualization training. And yet, ...

Momonga left the confines of the old church a couple of hours later, one small gym bag full of bills richer and poorer by several million nerve cells… At least if Momonga had still continued to be stressed in the same way as before, he probably would have lost most of his nerve cells, or maybe died in the church of a heart attack.

‘I haven't had time yet to see exactly what kind of Go...

So it is done: Where the line is drawn

Opening his eyes, Jonathan allowed himself a few moments of morning grogginess before forcibly bringing himself to full wakefulness. Today’s the eighteenth of May in the year one thousand seven hundred and forty-five, a Monday. And more importantly, tomorrow is Kali's birthday.

The secretary should have picked out a present for her by now.

Of course, Jonathan, the ruler of Glenn, ...

Final battle of Camelot continued yet again (214)

There was no wave of fear, horror, or darkness even as the wave of death seemed to swallow the world. On the contrary, the sky seemed to become even clearer, and all the small and pitiful details like darkness, light, horror, joy, simply gave way to an absolute void of sterile space. Such a sight gave a feeling of alien-ness as all living beings in the battlefield involuntarily shivered as a wa...

As both Katase and him walked the streets of Kuoh, with Katase leading the way to the church, Momonga looked at the girl with some confusion. ‘What's wrong? Why is she acting so strangely?’

After classes were over, Momonga found Katase waiting for him, luckily not with an ambush. As it turned out, he hadn't stepped into the trap of an unknown opponent meeting the girl, as Pandora’s ...

So it is done: Tiresome kingship

Jonathan made his way from his office straight to exit, passing by the reception area. Passing by the receptionist, who had met his gaze, she smiled, instantly catching the invisible meaning of his actions. “Should I reschedule the remaining appointments for today to a later date?”

“Who exactly is left for today?” Jonathan's mind was preoccupied with a multitude of thoughts, even ...

Final battle of Camelot continued again (213)

Semiramis’ Hanging Gardens is a mighty Noble Phantasm. How could it be otherwise? A soaring, protected fortress with the ability to launch hundreds of magical projectiles against entire armies, each one easily capable of destroying a dozen targets at once. And if that wasn't enough? Semiramis could always use the main weapon of her Noble Phantasm, taking out not dozens of peo...

Katase followed close behind Satoru, after a dash to get her own lunch, glancing at the surrounding students. Whose eyes on Satoru changed from disinterested to intrigued as soon as they realized that not only was he not involved with the trio, but he was able to stop them from being perverts… For how long, remains to be seen.

Katase was not exactly innocent in the matter, but Satoru ha...

So it is done: Worth of a friend

From the perspective of the ordinary man, the relationship between Glenn and Menagerie could not be described as anything other than an alliance. With a deployed military contingent, an economic partnership, numerous cultural, scientific, and technical exchange programs, what else could it be?

Glenn and Menagerie existed in an alliance so close that it was easier to consider them a single...

Final battle of Camelot continued (212)

Sita's arrow sliced, whistling through the air, overcoming speeds that no nameless ancient inventors of the bow could have imagined possible in any frightening or fantastic dream. It flew the distance from Sita’s bow to its target in almost an instant.

Sita, or more accurately, her bow, her Noble Phantasm possessed outstanding destructive power, but when compared to the walls of Camelot...

Taking the first step out of the [Gate], Momonga was not knocked down a moment later, and did not fly into the back of an ambush of the Special Forces. Generally, nothing incredible to indicate that the Pandora Actor had somehow done something ill-advised while Momonga was distracted. "Umu, things seem to be looking up already. Hmm, it's amazing how your expectations lower, once you run into tr...

So it is done: Invisible movers

Many people were able to distinguish between ‘big’ and ‘small’ victories and defeats among themselves, and such things depend on the individual. But no one would even try to equate the death of their family with a lost quarter. But, the difference between ‘big’ and ‘small’ setbacks was more blurry for people.

For the moneyless vagabond, the loss of a single crust of bread ...

Final battle of Camelot started (211)

In YGGDRASIL, all players possessed an internal clock – which was surprising to Ainz. The game company actually allowed something to be free, sure it’s a basic part of any online game UI, but it was surprising for the company to forgo a possible way to fool Players into losing their sense of time.

There’s a reason why there are no clocks inside Casinos.

Anyway, with the clock,...

Putting Albedo aside and covering her with the blanket of his bed, Momonga paused for a second, as he looked at the sight of the sleeping girl. Her chest was heaving gently and her face filled with a smile that broke through even her sleep.

‘Well…’ Momonga stared silently at the girl, carefully trying to shift so as not to pinch Albedo's wing, watching them carefully as they moved i...

So it is done: Family by soul

Nora had no memory of her parents. It was perfectly normal, abandoned at an age when children are not yet ready to attend school, it was perfectly normal that Nora had no memory of her parents. No notes, no acquaintances, not even a memory.

The very first memory Nora remembered was… Probably the time she managed to steal a pancake that had fallen out of some woman’s breakfast plate. 2023-05-12 22:24:32 +0000 UTC View Post

Chaldea and Staff: F?r$i)& (210)

Joan of Arc, the maiden saint of France, Heroic Spirit, and, more recently, Ruler class Servant of Ainz, after a while had settled herself in her life in Chaldea. Kneeling in front of her makeshift altar, she finished her day-prayers with a cross in front of the crucifix, Jean started on another in Chaldea.

Sadly, as it became apparent in her first week, there’s not much to do in the wh...

‘Well, let's consider the question of money solved for the moment.’ Momonga nodded to himself.

‘I don't know how exactly I should feel about making money from black market activities and underground fighting rings, but on the other hand, private security agencies are indeed a good suggestion. I haven't even thought about not killing monsters, but protecting against those! What a bli...

So it is done: Cinder

For the Hunter Academies’ the fourth year was the final year – the last year of training before the teams became full-fledged Hunters. And, as one would expect, for the soon-to-be-graduating Hunters, studying was the last thing on their mind. Except of course for the week of cramming before their finally final, Final Exam. Even the slackers in the Hunter teams would’ve learned by now the ...

Road to Camelot (209)

Semiramis shifted her gaze to the silhouette of Camelot in the distance, or rather, to the place where Camelot should have been. "The Goddess panicked… Though, is there an ability to experience human emotion for a creature like her?"

All throughout the Singularity's existence, a delicate balance has been maintained in the territories of surviving humanity through a system of checks and ...

It existed in nothingness, unaware of either existence or even the phenomenon of nothingness. But existence itself required awareness of nothingness, so after moments of meaningless existence, it ceased to exist.

First, it existed without existing. Then it ceased to exist.

A nothing with no meaning, no consciousness, no role.

Then it felt the possibility of existence.

So it is done: Jonathan Goodman?

Jonathan closed his eyes, trying to catch the moments of rest, peace, and quiet that are slipping through his fingers.

To Jonathan… It was hard to tell if he enjoyed his work.

He was by no means complaining about his current life, certainly not, he was in a position where it was simply hypocritical for him to complain about anything.

Calm (208)

After Bedivere's long and thorough retelling of his sad story, all Mashu could do was to bow her head and head in the direction of the small refugee camp, bearing the stares of fear and mistrust of the camps’ inhabitants. Mashu found the stares hard to bear, no matter how real or unreal the people might be.

After all, the people of this Singularity could not be called ‘real’ in the ...

After saying his goodbye to the trio, of which his sort-of-son was now involuntarily a member, Momonga walked out of Kuoh Academy. He walked in a great arc, to bypass the two girls he had previously met, whose response to his previously demonstrated inhuman abilities he could not think of. Putting that thought aside for the moment, he walked slowly through the streets of the city, looking aroun...

So it is done: Families

Yang struck, her fist blazing forward, but Raven ducked playfully away from her daughter's unsharpened technique before knocking her to the ground with a light punch. Then, as she struck the ground, raising a cloud of dust upward, Raven placed her hand to Yang’s neck in a symbolic gesture, signalling her victory. “You are dead.”

Yang, hearing the same words for the umpteenth time, c...

Chaldea and Staff: Ainz Who? (207)

“So…” Da Vinci folded her hands in front of her face, as she frowned slightly, assuming an unusual posture and expression for her. The act conveying a surprising amount of seriousness and concentration that seemed to make the room itself feel gloomy, causing all those present to pay attention to the usually flighty and cheerful scientist. “Any questions before we begin?”

Momonga rose from the table before pausing for a moment as his instinct warred with his usual behavior. His body couldn't get tired, and sitting in one place definitely wouldn’t cause any exhaustion to him, thanks to his undead nature. But, the remnants of his human emotions and feelings, seemed to be urging him to reach out his hands and stretch his stiff limbs a bit.

Deciding to satis...

Willow Schnee could be considered by most to be lucky, especially with the circumstances of her birth. Heh, lucky indeed.

Fate of Bedivere (206)

Mashu shifted her gaze from Bedivere’s face, to his silver hand, which Arthuria held with a kind of undercurrent of warmth that is rare to her, or is it nervous fear? Looking to Arthuria herself for that answer, who’s seemingly in no less contemplation than Mashu herself, before giving up and asking her now eternal and constant companion. ‘Galahad? Do you understand what Bedivere was talk...

The subsequent day of schooling for Momonga went by about the same as the first, perhaps even more boring, if that’s even possible. After the sense of novelty had weathered and given the absence of meeting Rias Gremory and any possible ambush dissolved, Momonga found that he was bored out of his mind.

No, Momonga preferred situations where he was safe, even if doing something rather bor...

So it is done: Menagerie

Ghira Belladonna faced away from the desk filled with documents before collapsing, exhausted, onto the back of his chair. After a heavy sigh, he ran his hands over his tired face, as if trying to gather the fatigue and shed it, knowing that his working day was not yet over.

As a top-level politician, being King of Menagerie, not that he liked being called that, Ghira's working day was nev...
