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 closet bathroom…. Would be at where Shalltear is?…. I will 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!”
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 have been working hard at carrying out his orders, you would give a more favourable impression. In the end, it would be more advantageous to Albedo-sama right?”
The other demons also recommended—”By the time that Albedo-sama finishes showering and getting dressed to appear in front of Momonga-sama… Black Knight-sama, who knows how much time will pass. To miss such an opportunity, wouldn’t it be a pity?”
“Hmm—” Albedo was deep in thought. What they said was not wrong.
“That makes sense….. Maybe it’s because it has been a long time since I last panicked. I can only see Momonga-sama after 18 hours, don’t you think 18 hours is too long?”
“Yes, it is too long”
“Wanting to establish an operating organization as soon as possible and return to Momonga-sama’s side…. no more loitering around, I need to go and find Momonga-sama quickly. Where is he now?”
“He just left through that door.”
“Here?”
Although Albedo answered coldly, her face showed a shy smile and she cutely flapped her wings at the opportunity to see Momonga. She quickly stepped past the demons.
Then the footsteps suddenly stopped, Albedo asked the demons again:
“I’ll ask again: going to see Momonga-sama like this will improve his impression of me?”
Leaving the shrine, a beautiful scene greeted Momonga. The Great Tomb of Nazarick had an area of about 200 square meters. It was surrounded by six-meter thick walls for protection with an entrance in the front and the back.
The grass in the cemetery was kept short, giving it a refreshing atmosphere. But on the other hand, the cemetery had large leafy trees, covering the whole area in shade, creating a gloomy feeling. There were also many white tombstones laying about in a messy arrangement.
Properly trimmed grass and the disorderly tombstones created a strong sense of disparity. Not only that, but the area was also dotted with the fine carvings of angels and goddesses, along with other artworks. But one couldn’t help looking down on the chaotic design of this cemetery.
Also, excluding the four small shrines in the four corners of the cemetery, there was a huge central shrine with a six-meter high statue of a warrior being protected by soldiers.
It was from the Central Shrine of the Great Tomb of Nazarick that Momonga came out of.
Momonga stood at the top of the board stone steps and quietly overlooked the scenery.
The Great Tomb of Nazarick was located at Hel Heim, which was a cold world with a neverending night. Because of the eternal night, the atmosphere was quite dark and the sky would always be covered with dark clouds. But the scenery today was different.
In front of his eyes was the beautiful night sky.
Momonga looked at the sky, and let out a sigh full of emotion, constantly shaking his head as he could not believe what he was seeing.
“To be able to do this in a virtual world… It truly is amazing…. The air here is fresh and there is no trace of contamination in the atmosphere. People who are born into this world wouldn’t need artificial lungs or hearts….”
He has never seen such a clear sky.
Momonga wanted to cast magic, but was hindered by the armor he was wearing. Certain magic related classes had special skills and being able to cast while wearing armor was one of them, but Momonga never learned that skill. So the full body armor that he was wearing hindered his ability to cast spells. Even if it was armor that was created with magic, it still did not have the advantage of being able to cast spells while wearing it. While wearing the armor, there were only five types of spells that could be casted. Sadly the spell Momonga wanted to use was not one of these five types.
Momonga extended his hand into empty air and took out an accessory. It was a necklace in the shape of a bird’s wings.
Wearing the necklace, he focused his awareness onto the necklace, activating the power hidden inside.
“Flight.”
Casting off the shackles of gravity, Momonga slowly floated up into the sky. He continued to speed up, raising upwards in a straight line in one breath.
Although Demiurge hurriedly chased after him, Momonga paid him no mind, and continued to rise. Unknowingly he has risen up several hundred meters.
Then Momonga slowly decelerated and took off his helmet, he was speechless — No, looking at this world he became speechless.
The bluish white light from the moon and stars drove away the darkness on the ground. Blowing in the breeze, the swaying grasslands looked like a shining world. The countless stars in the sky along with the moon and planets gave off a brilliant radiance, complementing the scenery on the ground.
Momonga could not help but sigh:
“Beautiful… No, too beautiful for words…. I have no idea what kind of face Blue Planet-san would make if he saw this…”
If he saw a world with no air, water or soil pollution.
Momonga thought about his companion, thinking about when he appeared on the net, he was praised as a romantic, on his face that looked like a rock showed a smile — a warm and gentle man who loved the night sky.
No, what he loved was nature. He loved natured even though it would be polluted and disappear. Because he wanted to admire a scenery that no longer existed in reality, he started playing Yggdrasil. He also spent a lot of his time and hard work on crafting and designing the sixth floor, especially the night sky, thereby creating his ideal world.
