Nazarick, so being seen through by him was understandable. But Momonga thinks that the
reason that Demiurge saw through his disguise was due to the fact that Momonga had
teleported here.
The only person in Nazarick who could freely use teleport, was the only owner of an Ainz Ooal
Gown ring - Momonga.
“Ah… There are many reasons. If it’s Demiurge, you should know why I am dressed like this.”
Demiurge made a complicated expression. After a few breaths he said:
“Forgive me, I do not understand Momonga-sama’s intentions——”
“Call me Black Knight.”
“Black Knight-sama….”
Demiurge looked like he wanted to say something, but Momonga decided to ignore it. Even
though the name sounded very modest, compared to the names of the monsters in the game,
this name was very normal.
There was a reason as to why he wanted Demiurge to correct himself. Although Demiurge’s
servants were the only ones present, this place was originally a gateway, there should be many
different servants passing by. In order to not to let them know that he was Momonga, he wanted
to avoid mentioning this name.
It was unclear how much of his intentions Demiurge understood. At that moment, Demiurge
suddenly looked as if he had a revelation.
“I see… So that’s what’s going on.”
Huh? What?
Momonga could not help wondering.
Momonga was unable to guess how much the intelligent Demiurge was able to understand. He
could only let out non-existent sweat from under his full-faced helmet, hoping that he would at
least be able to see through his intentions.
“Momon-…. Black Knight-sama’s profound insight, I final y have a slight grasp on it. This is
surely a worthy problem for a ruler. But as to the issue of you having no companions with you, I
cannot idly sit by. Although I know doing this would cause some problems, but I hope that you
wil mercifully allow us to follow you.”
“..... There’s real y no helping it. Then I wil allow just one person.”
Demiurge let out an elegant smile.
“I am grateful that Black Knight-sama would grant my wil ful request.”
“.... Just call me Black Knight, no need for any honorifics.”
“How could we! I absolutely wil not allow addressing you in this way. Of course, if it was some
kind of undercover work, or some kind of very special task or command, I could obey this
command, but in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, there is no one would would dare to address you
in this way Momonga-sama… No, Black Knight-sama!”
Hearing Demiurge’s passionate speech, Momonga felt moved, and could not help but nod. In
his heart he thought that calling himself Black Knight would cause other people to make fun of
him for choosing such a stupid name and he started to regret choosing this name.
“I’m sorry, Momon… Black Knight-sama, I have taken up your valuable time. Then the rest of
you will be on standby, on the way back tell the others I will be leaving for the outside.”
“Yes sir, Demiurge-sama”
“The servants also approve. Come Demiurge, let’s go.”
Momonga passed the bowing Demiurge. Raising his head, Demiurge followed after.
“Why is Momon… *cough*, Black Knight-sama dressed in this way?”
“Don’t know, but there should be some reason.”
The confused demons who were left behind asked.
It was not because of Momonga teleporting, they they actually saw through him.
Although Momonga was unable to detect it, everyone inside the Great Tomb of Nazarick, no,
everyone inside Ainz Ooal Gown emitted a special kind of presence which the servants used to
determine if another person was an ally or not. Furthermore, the original 41 rulers of the Great
Tomb of Nazarick——of which only Momonga was left——had a special presence that
enveloped their whole bodies, allowing the servants to know immediately who their rulers were.
They would be able to sense such an incredibly strong presence no matter how far away it was.
Even though Momonga covered his whole body in plate armor, they would never confuse him
with somebody else.
His aura was even easier to distinguish compared to others.
Someone was climbing up the staircase leading to the first floor of Nazarick.
Judging from the aura coming from the direction of the stairs, it could be determined that it was
a Floor Guardian.
Walking up the stairs and coming into sight was the beautiful face of the Commander of the
Guardians, Albedo. Seeing that they were in front of Demiurge’s direct superior, the demons all
knelt down.
For Albedo, the sight of them kneeling down was natural and as if she did not see them, she
began to scan her surroundings.
Being unable to find what she was looking for, Albedo moved towards the demons and
questioned them.
“... I do not see Demiurge, where has he gone?”
“That… Just now Black Knight-sama came, so Demiurge has followed him outside.”
“Black Knight…. sama? I have never heard of that name… Demiurge went with that person? A
dignified Guardian follow him out? Isn’t that too weird?”
The demons did not know what to do, and could not help but face forward.
Albedo looked at the demons with a warm smile.
“Would a mere servant dare to hide something from me?”
Her warm and gentle warning made them shudder with fear and the demons were unable to
continue hiding the truth.
“Demiurge-sama has determined that Black Knight-sama is actually the person we serve.”
“.... Momonga-sama was here!”
Albedo squeaked and the demons calmly replied:
“.... No, that person’s name is Black Knight-sama.”
“.... What about the guards? Did Demiurge receive instructions from Momonga-sama? But I had
already made an appointment with him and Demiurge couldn’t have known that Momonga-sama
was coming here, right? Forget it, let’s put this aside. First, I have to get some clothes ready and take a bath!”
Albedo touched her own clothes.
Working around the clock had made her clothes dirty, her wings and tail were also looking
disheveled.
However, even if a peerless beauty like Albedo became a little dirty, it would not diminish her
good looks in any way. It was like having a million points reduced by a single point, it was no big
deal and had no discernable effect on her beauty. But for Albedo, this kind of thing was
unacceptable and she wouldn’t allow the one she loved to see her this way.
“The closest bathroom…. Would be at where Sharutia is?.... I wil be met with some suspicion….
But I should be able to bear with it for now. You there, go to my room and bring me some
clothes! Quickly!”
Namorax: Why does an undead loli Vampire even have a bathroom in the first place?
At this moment, one of the demon’s addressed the departing Albedo. That demon would be the
Demon of Jealousy.
“.... Albedo-sama, I mean no disrespect, but wouldn’t your current attire be good?”
“.... What did you say?”
Albedo stopped and angrily answered. She believed that the demon wanted her to look dirty
when she goes to see Momonga.
“.... No, I just thought that Albedo-sama is such a beautiful lady, if you were to show that you
