Chapter 8 — Daily Report

The night came, and with it, most of the residents of Nazarick returned to their quarters.

The Realm Collector has been recognized by the Supreme Being as a esteemed guest of the guild, and as such, has been treated with respect an courtesy.

At this moment, Yuhan was on his bed, in a grandiose room with a gothic style setting.

"Ainz-san why do we even bother going to bed? It's not like we need to sleep anyway."

At that Ainz respone was direct.

"I need a break from acting all the time you know? It's mentally draining role playing all the time."

Looking at the maid beside the door, Yuhan changed the subject.

"Why is there a maid standing there? There is also a guard behind the door, it's so uncomfortable being watched like this…"

With a sigh Ainz explained

"I'm in the same situation, I just order the maid to sit on the side couch and wait for me to be done with my rest."

At that, Yuhan sits on the bed and looks at the maid.

— Take a seat on the side couch, I will start to rest.

At that remark, the maid made a little bow and move to the side, sitting on the spot instructed.

"It really worked, she moved to the couch."

"I told you so, most of them just stay on standby and wait for instructions, I should have to maids rotate so that none of them end of overworked"

As the night went by, Ainz and Yuhan began talking about some future plans, thinking about their world and what to do from now on.

As both of them agreed, Yuhan stayed in his quarters, preparing some cards for their plans.

At the same time, Ainz and Albedo were currently going through some of the documents and informations collected.

— According to Aura's report of surrounding areas, there has been no contact with any other Yggdrasil players.

A very sublte sound of paper was heard as Albedo continued the report.

— She is in the process of increasing the area of surveillance to the great woodlands near Nazarick.

With a slight displeasure in her voice, Albedo moved on to the next report.

— Also, it seems that the man called Nigum, was the commander of the special ops, for the Sunlit Scripture of the Slane Theocracy.

Said Albedo putting the written report down at Ainz's desk

.

— Slane Theocracy...

After gathering his thoughts about the nation, Ainz continued.

— Goblin, Lizardman, Ogres and the like, It's a theocratic nation that believes humans must unite against all other races, if I remember correctly.

Ainz pondered for a bit and made his decision.

— It might be dangerous getting in contact with them right now.

Understanding her master's intention Albedo agreed.

— And lastly, what should we do about that village?

Ainz had intentions of making that village his little project, so he just responded.

— Carne Village is a foothold we obtained on friendly terms, avoid creatinga negative image as much as possible.

After recieveing her orders, Albedo concluded her report.

— Good work.

Hearing those words, her body was overcome with satisfaction.

— I'm undeserving of those words! As the supreme one, and as the one I love, please use me in any way you wish.

Ainz was feeling a bit guilty, her feelings were something he had imposed to her by altering her settings.

— Albedo, your feelings towards me are something I warped inside of you, that's why...

— Is there a problem with that?

— Eh?

Leaning a little bit, showing heww cleavage to the supreme one.

— Lord Ainz, there is only one important thing... Does it cause you any trouble?

As his jaw dropped with a bone snapping sound.

— N-no, that's not the case.

Relieved Albedo straighted herself and with a smile on her face continued.

— Then I believe there is no problem!

— I messed Tabula-san's settings!

Confessed Ainz in a hurry.

— I'm sure Lord Tabula Smaragdina-Sama would forgive you, like a father would when marrying off his daughter.

Before Ainz could even process what Albedo just said, the maid tending to the front door announced that someone has requested an audience as well.

As the door opens, the figure of Shalltear Bloodfallen enters the room, in her burgundy dress carrying her umbrella.

— Lord Ainz, I hope you are doing well.

— You as well, Shalltear, and what brings you to my room today?

Asked Ainz sitting in his chair without any expression, naturally because he was a skeleton.

— Of course, I'm here to lay my eyes on your exquisite form-

— Then are you satisfied now? You may leave, Shalltear.

Said Albedo coldly.

— Huh?

— Lord Ainz and I are discussing important matters right now.

Albedo continues with a pointy tone towards the vampire.

— That's the problem with old ladies, they have so much free time since they've passed the expiration date.

With a slight smirk on her face Shalltear said while looking at Albedo.

— So you are telling me you are ripe for picking?

With a slight wave of her hand Albedo continued with disdain in her voice.

— The good you display may "look" nice, but in reality…

The vampire seems to snap at that, with a murderous aura.

— I'll kill you b*tch!

At the same time, Albedo let go of her restrains and snaps back.

— Who are you calling expired you wh*re?!

As both sides face off, the door opens again, this time unannounced, Yuhan enters the room with a happy smile on his face.

— Ainz-san~ The thing you asked me to do is complet-

Both women were looking at Yuhan who just entered with a dangerous glow in their eyes.

— Am I interrupting something?

At this moment, Ainz intervenes with an imposing tone.

— Both of you, stop this childish behavior.

Instantly, both women fixed their postures and had a pleasant smile on their faces, at this moment Shalltear continued.

— Lord Ainz, I'm about to set on a journey together with Sebas, who departed by your order. It will be a short time before I'm back, so I came to give you my regards before I left.

Understanding the situation, Ainz nodded.

— I understand, have safe travels Shalltear.

With joy, the girl responds.

— Yes! Lord Ainz!

As she left, Yuhan was left before them, and the boy just repeated the reason he came for.

— Well, Ainz-san, the thing you asked me to do, it's ready, we can start at any moment.

Albedo was confused, as her master was showing a lot of enthusiasm for whatever this "Collector" has prepared, following her orders, Albedo gathered the other floor guardians and met at the throne room.
