32 Ainz Ooal Gown
(Author's Note: Vote wins for Treech to write the guild backstory. It was actually close this time, but Treech wins. No crying.)
...
In the World of Midgard, 4th Outer Zone, Modreal City.
Three players slumped to the ground in defeat as TouchMe finished them off. They were the remaining members of Modreal City. They did what they had planned to do since over a month ago during their clan creation: Destroy Modreal city and eliminate the [DMarks] guild. Actually, it was much easier than they expected, but they weren't as efficient as Treech's famous city attack. They messed up a few times, but they pulled through in the end.
"*Tsk*, scum." Bob Uchiha watched the humanoid players from the [DMarks] guild fade out into specs of light next to TouchMe. The center player was actually the guild leader. He had run away while carrying their guild weapon like a coward.
Bob then walked past TouchMe to continue chasing after some more stragglers, but before he could get far TouchMe grabbed his shoulder firmly.
"We discussed this. Justice has already been done. We have their guild weapon and all we need to do is break it to disband them. Let the stragglers go." TouchMe said in a commanding tone.
"You really are all about justice aren't you TouchMe? " Bob shrugged TouchMe's grip off his shoulder.
"Stop! Just stop Bob, it's already done. Our clan has been avenged." TouchMe continued to persuade.
"Stop? They've already been avenged? Do you know how sick I felt when they killed me over and over again? And What about the rest of us? Momonga was killed 3 times within the same day. I won't rest until all of them die at least 4 times." Bob said as he walked off into the distance.
"If you continue doing this, I will kick you from the group! We should give mercy when we can, there is no need for such cruelty! I'm putting my foot down as clan leader." TouchMe said with confidence.
Bob paused for a moment before continuing to walk away.
"Bob, if you take one more-" TouchMe was feeling a bit upset now.
"Just do it already. Kick me out of the group. You just don't understand me. I'm going to avenge myself and our clan." Bob manually left the clan leaving the rest of the members of [Nines Own Goal] stunned.
They watched Bob disappear into the distance, little did they know they would never play with him again because after today Bob disappeared.
Momonga felt a sharp stab at his heart while watching Bob leave. Every one of the members in [Nines Own Goal] felt like family to him. And now that one of them was leaving over something so insignificant, he felt very sad.
And he wasn't alone in this, the other members of Nines Own Goal all had their own thoughts about the situation. Over the past few days, Bob and TouchMe had continued to argue with each other over the issue. But Bob ended up leaving the group at such a joyous moment. They had finally done what they wanted to achieve: they destroyed a city and obliterated a guild all on their own! This kind of achievement was quite something as the guild had 100 members and they only had members in the single digits.
They were second only to Treech and his clan [Dark Reunion]. This was quite something, considering that most of the Yggdrasil community agreed not to compare themselves to the likes of Treech. They liked to put him into his own category of players who were god-level players.
But in spite of this great achievement, the mood was ruined. Most of the members felt that TouchMe had handled the situation quite poorly and were a little dissatisfied.

World-Class Item: [Pillar of Gorgon]
========***++++***========
A notification sounded off across the whole server, just like how they had seen when [Dark Reunion]'s achievements were announced. The notification did improve the mood a bit as they were distracted by the large white pillar that had materialized in front of TouchMe. It looked like a Greek-carved pillar. It had vertical grooves parallel to each other running along the neck of the pillar. And intricate swirls were formed at the corners of the top and bottom.
At the same time, each member received a notification on their HUDs.

"Awesome!" Flatfoot exclaimed as he equipped the title and posed in front of Warrior Takemikazuchi.
"A warrior's title. Very good. Very meaningful." Warrior Takemikazuchi said with barely discernable approval in his monotone voice.
"I actually never thought we would do it," Amanomahitotsu said in confession.
"You should have had faith in your clan members crabby," Ancient One said while patting the large crab heteromorph on his claw.
"I'm a lifestyle player. I play as a blacksmith! If those [Powered Suits] hadn't been released I would have been completely useless!!" Amanomahitotsu said in response.
"You were still pretty useless, " Nishikienrai said in his ninja gear and armor.
"..." Amanomahitotsu remained silent at the comment. He wasn't much help, those Powered Suits weren't that good in the first place.
"I'm so glad we managed to do this and achieve our goals. Our clan name wasn't for show. Thank you everyone for your hard work." Momonga said as he bowed out of habit.
The clan members had long gotten used to Momonga's quirks in acting professionally all of the time. It was just how he dealt with things and everyone found Suzuki to be a very likable person in general. TouchMe lifted the [Pillar of Gorgon] and slowly dragged it over to Warrior Takemikazuchi.
"I think you are the only one who can equip this heavy weapon, Warrior Takemikazuchi. Why don't you take it?" TouchMe tried to hand the item off to him. But there was still a lingering awkwardness in the air from what had just happened with Bob, which caused Warrior Takemikazuchi to shake his head.
"A Warrior only needs his Katana. I am a Samari Warrior, not a Pillar Warrior." He replied in a monotone voice.
"Give it to Wish III." He said while motioning towards him.
"Alright, here you go Wish-san," TouchMe said and handed over the World-Class Item.
"Wow, thank you, guys! I'll use it well." Wish III said while gripping the item.
"Do you guys think we will be famous now? Like [Dark Reunion]?" Flatfoot asked as the group started to walk out of the city ruins and towards their previously claimed Celestial Ore Mine.
"Probably... but it doesn't matter to me either way. TouchMe could you tell me a bit about your fight with Treech in the World Champion's lobby? I feel like he would be a good rival to grow my skills with," Nishikienrai asked as they walked.
"Uhh, well he is an interesting fellow. When I talked to him at the World Champion lobby and asked him what was his Justice, he told me that his Justice is the freedom for any man to overturn his oppressors." TouchMe said in response.
"That's great TouchMe, but I meant more about his battle skills," Nishikienrai commented.
"Oh right, well they were top-notch. We had a short spar in the lobby while waiting for the developers," TouchMe said.
"That's all you have? Did he have any tells or did you see if he practiced any swordsmanship?" Nishikienrai asked again.
"No, well he said he didn't know any of that. He apologized to me after winning against me in our spar, he said his raw stats crushed me and no skill was needed." TouchMe said.
"Haha, that sounds like a funny scene," Flatfoot said.
Their voices continued to chat as they faded into the distance.
...
Another 2 weeks passed by and the forums were all a buzz with the clan Nines Own Goal. Their achievement caused quite a powershift within Midgard for a short time. The clan welcomed a lot more members that wanted to join. It got to be so much that TouchMe decided they would disband the clan and start a guild. The clan members all agreed and started a new decision-making option of deciding things by voting. This was because many members were dissatisfied with the argument that happened between TouchMe and Bob.
TouchMe had misused his power as the clan leader in his pursuit of fair justice. He thought he was doing the right thing, but to others, he was overbearing and didn't seem fit for the guild leader position. TouchMe also felt guilty for this as Bob Uchiha still hadn't responded to any of the member's messages since that day. It was as if he had disappeared. So the clan members decided they would reform the guild under a new name: [Ainz Ooal Gown].
They had a total of 31 members right now and they put the guild leader position to a vote. Nearly half of them supported Momonga as the guild leader. He was a very likable person who was always polite and managed things very well. He organized guild accounts and the treasury and made sure to greet everyone every day. Imagine someone who would always be the first to notice your new haircut right away. Or the person who earnestly asks you how you are doing each day when you finish work.
Momonga was a very thoughtful and caring guild member. Each and every person was remembered by him and he would even memorize their birthdays. So it was no wonder why he got so many votes. Even the members who lost the vote were happy for him. Momonga was elected guild leader and stood up to give a few words of encouragement to his fellow guildmates.
"Thank you, everyone!! I am very excited to continue playing with you all and I don't think I deserve to be in such a position, but since you have all voted me here. Please continue to take care of me." Momonga bowed a full 90 degrees towards the room filled with 30+ players.
"Hey Momonga, we need you to lead us to be the evilest guild in the game! Don't let me down." Ulbert Alain Odle said as his goat demon character pushed his monocle up on his face.
Ulbert was a casual Chūnibyō player who loved to act out his dark roleplaying in Yggdrasil. Of course, he was nowhere near as bad as Jet-Black Wings. That player had become famous for his cringe-worthy rants on the forums and many people suspected he had an actual mental disorder. When Treech accepted him into [Dark Reunion] many people were confused, but Jet-Black Wings became incredibly well known after joining, as the one and only 3rd member of [Dark Reunion].
"Of course, of course," Momonga said in response.
"Kek, Momonga hide me from my sister!" Peroroncino hid behind Momonga's skeleton figure.
"Brother! You perverted scum! You actually think you can escape?" Bukubukuchagama said as she chased after him. She clearly saw where he was. Her blob-like slime appearance slithered across the floor swiftly.
"Hahaha" Momonga laughed joyfully.
This was it. This was the family he had always hoped for. What he had always wanted. He watched Bukubukuchagama chase Peroroncino around the room while other guild members were talking with each other and avoiding the two siblings. Bukubukuchagama was demanding answers from Peroroncino on why he recognized her voice and lines from an erotic script she voice-acted in.
Peroroncino had barely flinched when she said it, but she caught it and started to demand an answer to his reaction. In fact, she started voice acting in erotic scripts just to try and catch her brother off guard. If he recognized the sounds, then he knew where it was from and she would scold him. In her mind, this was her way of controlling her perverted brother.
'If only things could stop right now, but at the same time I don't want it to. I want to see more of our goals met in the future. Together.' Momonga said in his heart. He felt very fulfilled.
(Author's Note: Alright, so Bob Uchiha left to avenge his clan and the big boy guild has formed. Time for the big games to start soon. Don't worry, it was cannon that the guy left. Its just his name was never mentioned.)
