All of her actions were permitted by Ainz, so the only one who might protest would be Shalltear Bloodfallen who was away.
Demiurge told Albedo ‘Shouldn’t a good wife wait for her husband and take care of their home?’. She answered ‘There’s nothing wrong with a wife guarding her husband’s room’, and Demiurge couldn’t retort.
Demiurge nodded to express his acknowledgement asked Eckeya:
“How rare to see you here. Isn’t your work place in the guest room?”
“With Sebas-sama away, I have to work doubly hard in his place too. I was discussing the division of tasks with Albedo-sama in detail.”
“That is true. With him away, the 9th floor of the Great Tomb of Nazarick will be in your hands.”
“Absolutely right, in order to rule the Great Tomb of Nazarick in the future, now is the time to work hard.”
Even though some strange words were uttered before him, Demiurge was still smiling.
It was common knowledge that Eckleya was eyeing the throne of Nazarick. This was part of the 41 Supreme Beings’ creation, so there was no problem with this.
Demiurge would dispose of him mercilessly if the Supreme Beings commanded it, but there was no problems before that.
“That’s right, work hard. So what do you plan to do first?”
“Cleaning. Are there any other chores? No one can clean better than me! You can even lick the toilet bowl after I cleaned it.”
Hearing Eckleya’s confident reply, Demiurge nodded with satisfaction:
“Wonderful. You have a very important job. If this floor becomes dirty, it would be an insult to the Supreme Beings.”
Demiurge who was nodding raised another query:
“I know your work are of the utmost importance, but who is taking care of this floor in place of Sebas?”
“That’s the job of the head maid Pastry. Compared to cleaning, management is no big deal.”
“I see… The servants created by the Supreme Beings have been delegated corresponding tasks… Speaking of which, isn’t it hard to clean with your penguin hands?”
“I can overcome this pair of hands and clean deftly with my skills.”
Eckleya puffed out his chest and replied confidently, but he continued speaking with a hint of displeasure:
“By the way, Demiurge-sama, this doesn’t seem like a question a person whose intelligence was just beneath me will ask.”
Eckleya took the comb handed to him by the male servant behind and started grooming the golden feathers on the side of his head.
“I am not a simple penguin, but a rockhopper penguin created by Ankoro Mochimochi-sama. Please don’t get that wrong. And this is not a hand─── it’s a wing.”
“Pardon me.”
Seeing Demiurge bowing in apology, Eckleya didn’t take the matter to heart, turning around to order the male servant:
“Carry me there.”
“Eeek~!”
Eskleya was carried under the male servant’s armpit.
Because Eckleya moved in shuffling steps, it was rather slow.
So he was carried by the male servants normally.
“I will bid my leave, Demiurge-sama.”
“Yes, farewell Eckleya.”
After glancing at the assistant butler being carried under the arm like a soft toy, Demiurge knocked the door gently:
Naturally, the owner wasn’t in, but Demiurge still acted respectfully. For Demiurge, this room is a place that deserved respect.
Demiurge entered the room that didn’t gave him any response.
After looking around, he didn’t see Albedo. Demiurge sighed, open another door and entered the interior room.
The rooms of the 41 Supreme Beings were designed in the image of a presidential suite, with a large bath, bar counter, living room with a piano, master bedroom, guest room, kitchen for personal chefs, walk in wardrobe and many other rooms.
Demiurge head for the master bedroom without hesitation.
He didn’t wait for a response after knocking and opened the door.
There was a bed in the room, but its large size was extravagant. A lump slightly bigger than a person was squirming under the covers.
“Albedo.”
Demiurge called out in irk. A beautiful face emerged, her bare shoulders could be seen and she was probably naked. Her face was pink with excitement probably because she was squirming inside the covers.
“…What are you doing here?”
“I want Ainz-sama to be surrounded by my scent when he returns.”
Her squirming actions was probably to leave behind her scent.
Demiurge was dumbfounded, looking silently at the highest ranking NPC, the overseer of the Grand Tomb of Nazarick. He then shook his head weakly.
He didn’t say ‘Ainz-sama is an undead, he probably doesn’t sleep in bed.’ or ‘Even if he does, the bed sheets would be changed immediately.’ If this was enough to satisfy Albedo, then let her be.
“But don’t go overboard.”
“… I don’t know how much would be overboard, but I have taken note. Right, Ainz-sama.”
Demiurge was stunned beyond words.
He thought it was Ainz Ooal Gown for an instance, but it lacked depth and the presence.
“Is that… a hug pillow of him… who made it?”
“I made it myself.”
The fast reply made Demiurge slightly opened his eyes that seemed to be always closed. He didn’t knew that Albedo had such skills.
“Be it cleaning, laundry or sewing skills, I am at the level of professionals.”
Pleased to see the shocked expression of Demiurge, Albedo boasted delightfully:
“For the child that might be born in the future, I had made clothes and socks. All the way till 5 years old.”
Albedo was all smiles, her “fufufu” laughter made Demiurge feel weak, thinking of just leaving this woman here and leaving right away.
“Either boys or girls would be fine… Ah! What about dual sex or sexless?”
Demiurge had nothing to say, looking at Albedo chattering away.
Albedo was excellent in managing the Grand Tomb of Nazarick, surpassing Demiurge by leaps and bounds. However, she wasn’t as well versed on the military aspect, so Demiurge’s aid was necessary.
But without any clear enemies, there should be no problem.
Demiurge suppressed his unease after judging so. His master ordered him to leave for a mission, so Demiurge can’t protest.
“By Ainz-sama’s command, it is about time for me to set off. Of the guardians left in Nazarick, only you and Cocytus are free to act. I don’t have anything else to advise you, please be careful.”
“After Aura, Mare, Sebas and Shalltear, so you are next. Yes, leave it to me, I will ask my little sister for help in a pinch. I will activate the Pleiades too, so I will definitely hold until everyone returns.”
“… Even in the event of an emergency, you can’t mobilize your sister without Ainz-sama’s permission. The Pleiades are the same. Two of them are out, so you can’t gather all of them. You might want to move Victim to the higher floors if the situation warrants it?”
“Something of that extent… I have made preparation to handle that. I will summon you back if there is a crisis. By the way, how do you plan to deal with the survivors of the Sunlight Scripture? Ainz-sama had given the green light for you to manage them right? You can leave them with me too, but I have no idea what you were doing…”
