Chapter 6: Carne Village

"What is this?"

Looking at his surroundings, Peroroncino felt confused.

"Lord Peroroncino, you fell asleep last night while looking at the night sky. As dawn was approaching, I brought you back to Nazarick. You are currently in my bedroom. By the way, around 3:30 AM last night, Lord Momonga came to find you. When he saw you were asleep, he left."

Shalltear was still holding Peroroncino in the same way she had the night before.

"Thank you for holding me like this for so long. Whatever reward you want, I'll grant it to you."

"As your creation, it's not difficult for me to do anything for you. Anything I do for you is my duty. I don't need a reward."

"Just tell me one thing you want as a reward! Stop saying things like you don't need it."

"Then... I wish for you to take my first time."

"..."

"Is that request too much? Then I'll ask for something else."

"You don't need to change it. I'm not speaking because this reward is too easy."

"Tonight, I'll fulfill your wish. Now, I'm going to find Momonga and see what he wanted from me last night."

"Please take care!"

Peroroncino teleported to the 9th floor and arrived at the door of Momonga's study.

He was about to open the door but stopped, knocking instead.

"Come in!" Momonga's voice came from inside.

Peroroncino pushed the door open and entered.

He saw Momonga fiddling with a mirror while Sebas stood by, watching.

"What are you two doing?"

"Lord Peroroncino, Lord Momonga is trying to control a remote viewing mirror."

"I see! By the way, did you come to find me last night for something?"

"There was nothing in particular. I heard that you hadn't returned and were still looking at the stars, so I thought I'd come and chat. When I saw you sleeping, I left."

"This remote viewing mirror, I know how to use it. Come, let me teach you..."

"Like this... then like that... and then like this..."

"Thank you, Peroroncino."

"There's no need to thank me, we've said it before. We're friends, right?"

"Try looking for a place with people!"

"Okay!"

The view through the remote viewing mirror shifted, showing an aerial view of a village. There were many small figures running around the village.

"Is there a celebration going on?"

Sebas leaned over to take a look and gave a negative response.

"No, it's not."

Momonga adjusted the view of the remote viewing mirror. The perspective shifted to that of a bystander.

It was a group of armored soldiers slaughtering the villagers.

Peroroncino's expression was clearly not good as he watched.

"Lord Momonga, what are you planning to do?"

"Let them die."

"I'm going to save these villagers."

"Momonga, do you remember Touch Me?"

Momonga glanced at Peroroncino, then at Sebas.

"Touch Me..." Momonga remembered how Touch Me had saved him when he was being killed by other players and brought him into the Ainz Ooal Gown guild.

"Open a portal for me. I'm going to save these villagers. I cannot condone a group of knights slaughtering defenseless villagers."

"I'll go too!" Momonga stood up and spoke.

"Sebas, from now on, Nazarick is to be on high alert. Have Albedo come fully armed. Also, prepare a backup team—send a few members with high stealth or invisibility abilities to infiltrate this village."

"Understood!"

＜Portal＞

.......

"Over there, two children are running! Quickly catch up and kill them!"

Two soldiers were chasing after two girls. The girls' speed was no match for the soldiers. The older girl was struck in the back by one of the soldiers' swords.

She fell to the ground, tightly clutching her younger sister, terrified that the soldiers would strike her as well.

As the two soldiers were about to deliver the fatal blow to the girls, they saw a blood-red and black mixed portal appear behind them.

"What is this?"

Suddenly, a scepter shot out of the portal, piercing the ground, tightly gripped by a skeletal hand.

A large skull face emerged from the portal, followed by the full skeletal body.

The two girls, scared out of their minds, clung to each other.

The soldiers, upon seeing Momonga, fearfully raised their shields and began to retreat.

[Heart Grasp]

"Whoosh!"

Momonga stretched out his hand, preparing to cast a spell, but an arrow of light shot from behind him, piercing the head of one soldier.

At the moment the soldier's head exploded, Momonga squeezed a heart in his hand. The soldier's chest also exploded in a spray of blood.

"Pathetic," Momonga said. "That arrow, with no charge, was probably as powerful as a sixth-tier spell."

"By the way, I have the 'Eye of Insight' skill."

"How weak. These two soldiers are only level 16."

"Help!"

The other soldier threw away his shield and weapon, turning around and running.

"This is a good opportunity to test our strength in this world."

"Whoosh!"

"To harm children and women, yet when facing a powerful enemy, you only run away?!"

Peroroncino fired an arrow through the fleeing soldier's chest, leaving a massive hole in the soldier's torso.

[Intermediate Undead Creation: Death Knight]

A black liquid covered the soldier's corpse at Momonga's feet. The body began to twitch and slowly transformed into a Death Knight.

Seeing the twitching corpse, both Momonga and Peroroncino instinctively leaned back.

"So it just emerges directly from the corpse? Quite different from the game."

"Death Knight, kill the knights attacking the village."

The Death Knight roared loudly: "ROAR!!!"

It started running toward the village.

"Huh?" Momonga stretched out his hand and then quickly retracted it.

"A bit unaccustomed to it, huh? The frontlines abandoning you?" Peroroncino said.

"Yeah, it's a bit strange. The monster meant to be the tank just abandons his owner and just run away, though it was my command."

"I'll go capture a leader, get some intel, and if necessary, kill the Death Knight."

"Okay! Be careful and stay safe."

"Okay!"

"Sorry, it took me a bit longer to prepare."

Albedo was dressed in a full set of black armor, which hugged her alluring figure. It gave off a unique charm.

"No, it's just in time, Albedo."

"Thank you. So... how should we deal with these low-level creatures?"

"The current enemies are the ones lying over there, the armored humans."

Momonga's gaze turned toward the human girl, Anri.

"It looks like you're injured."

"Drink this!" Momonga took out a red healing potion and offered it to Anri.

"Blood?"

From Anri's perspective, a terrifying giant skeleton was holding a bottle of red liquid, urging her to drink it.

Anri, holding back her fear for the sake of her sister, extended her hand and said, "I'll drink it, just please don't harm my sister."

"No, sister!" Anri's younger sister reached out and pulled Anri's hand back.

"Lowly creatures!" Albedo raised her axe, ready to strike down at the Anri sisters.

"Wait, don't act rashly, put down your weapon." Seeing Albedo's movement, Momonga hurriedly called out.

"Understood!"

Momonga crouched down and explained to the two sisters: "This is a healing potion, quickly drink it!"

Anri hesitated but took the potion and drank it.

Immediately, the large wound on her back from the sword slash healed, and her clothes restored as well, fully mended. Truly the best healing potion.
