CH 3

The next day Momonga decided he should probably join a guild. He cherishes his time with his guild, but he cannot thrive in a world he does not know. Luckily he his status says no guild besides Ainz Ooal Gown because Ainz Ooal Gown is not in this world, meaning to everyone else, he is not in a guild.

'Lets check the guilds recruiting.' Momonga thought as he made his way into the guild building. He could join the bigger guilds but he prefers the smaller ones. Momonga looks over a list and sees a guild called the Crescent Moon Alliance. He sends a Join request and makes his way out of the building.

Momonga then is then sent a notification of his acceptance and is sent a friend request by the guild leader Marielle. He accepts and is sent a chat request.

"Hello, thank you for accepting me." Momonga states when he accepts.

"No problem, If you could, our guild base is on floor 2 and you can come on inside." chirped Marielle.

"I will be there soon guild master." stated Momonga respectfully before ending the call.

Momonga proceeded to his new guild hall on floor 2. He made his way inside while noting the screen saying he had permission to enter. As he made his way in, he saw a human woman with orange hair in a purple secretary dress. Her status said her name was Henreitta.

"Follow me to meet the guild master." stated Henrietta in a no-nonsense manner.

"Lead the way." gestured Momonga. They made their way up the staircase to a hallway and at the end of the hallway was a door with the plate 'Guild Master's office' above it.

They entered and Momonga saw a blond elf with the name Marielle, which obviously is his new guild master.

"Thank you for accepting me into your guild" Momonga said respectfully as he bowed.

"No problem, we accept anyone who wants to join our guild. We usually only get low leveled players who we help out. Why did you choose our guild over a bigger one?" Marielle asked curiously. This is after all a level 90 player.(From False Data)

"I do not like to be in large groups of people." Momonga stated bashfully.

"Well welcome to the guild. You can pick from one of the empty rooms and decorate how you want. We will probably ask you to help out a lot since we don't have many high-level players." stated Henrietta.

"That is fine with me. I am happy to help." stated Momonga. Henrietta led him to his personal room to show where he can stay before leaving to help Marielle with paperwork and watch over the Suskino situation.

Momonga spent the whole day decorating his room with cosmetic items he horded from Yggdrasil. He had a king-sized bed, a magic lamp, a bookshelf full of tomes that had spells from all classes though in Yggdrasil they were purely cosmetic, and a picture frame of him and his guildmates in front of the Great Tomb of Nazerick. The picture of course had a permanent illusion on it to make it seem like the wall had nothing on it. Momonga had it out as a reminder of his past. From now on, he would continue forward with the memories of his comrades.

==================================================================

The next day he was called out by Marielle to see if he could go buy some potions with Shouryuu, a blue haired Wolf fang.

Momonga accepted and accompanied Shouryuu to the main plaza. They made it back very quickly because Shouryuu is trying to impress Marielle.

'What a weird guy' Momonga thought.

Momonga then went to his room and pulled out his portable kitchen.

'Hording every item you have is dumb they said. A waste of money they said' Momonga thought smugly. 

'Might as well try out the Yggdrasil version of cooking' Momonga thought in anticipation.

Momonga had previously bought ingredients when he went out to get potions so he should be set.

'How do I cook' Momonga thought in realization. He lived in a slum of a futuristic city eating prepackaged irradiated food. How is he supposed to know how to cook.

'Let's just try like those old YouTube videos showed. You Tube of all things survived WW3.

'Roll the dough, put the sauce on, the cheese then the peperoni, then put it in the oven'. 'Now wait 15 minutes and it should be done' Momonga thought in satisfaction.

When it was finally done Momonga took it out of the oven and put it on a plate.

'I wonder what it will taste like' Momonga thought while salvating to the smell of the peperoni pizza. 

Momonga worked up the courage to taste it.

'I've seen heaven' Momonga thought in stupefaction. 'This is what they gave up for more money' Momonga thought angerly. The massive corporations had ruined his world with their greed.

'Maybe this can be my new start' Momonga thought in wonder. Momonga's final reluctance about not seeing his friends dissipated into the Aether.

He proceeded to spend the next couple of days exploring Akihabara.

He was finally called in by Marielle when Shiroe and co came back with Sarah. 

Marielle explains what happened to the entire guild before starting a party.

Momonga is called in to help cook, watching attentively as Nyanta teaches him how to cook other than pizza. Eventually the party is over with Momonga on the roof star gazing again. He notices Shiroe and Nyanta leaving but it is not his problem.

=================================================================

In the Guild Master's Office Before Shiroe Leaves

'Shiroe finally has a guild' Marielle thought in happiness. 

"By the way, who was the new member cooking with Nyanta?" asked Shiroe.

"That's Momonga, he joined not too long ago" chirped Marielle. "He has been a lot of help with anything we've asked." "He is kinda like you in being shy and helpful."

They talk a little more before Shiroe leaves.
