Kurayami and Ainz.

Shalltear started to lead Kurayami down toward the 10th floor where Ainz was staying. As for Ainz, he was sitting on his throne with a busty succubus at his side. She wore a skimpy outfit and was crawling all over him. He ignored her as the panic was going wild in his head

'WHO THE HELL IS THIS! IS HE A BOSS FROM YGGDRASIL WHO FOLLOWED ME HERE! A DRAGON GOD?! Did the devs leave this level-breaking boss hidden or something?'

His emotions continued to be suppressed as his mind went through every possible scenario in his head. The succubus who was crawling on him sat on his lap as her eyes turned into eyes.

"Lord Ainz, what will you do? Their power seems to be on a different scale."

Ainz glanced down at her as Kurayami was led down through the floors. The closer Kurayami got to him the more his emotions had to be forcefully suppressed. He reached into his inventory and pulled out the Shooting Star Ring.

Albedo sat down on his lap as he continued to ignore her. As an Overlord and Undead, despite the alluring, near-naked body of the succubus was not enough to arouse a reaction from his dead body.

"What is that?"

Ainz cleared his voice before speaking in a dignified voice that was the opposite of his panicky inner monologue.

"This is the Divine class Item Shooting Star, it allows one to use the spell Wish Upon a Star. Even though I do not know if this will suffice, it is our only hope. We can only see if this Dragon God as he claims comes with peaceful intentions. Gather all Guardians here minus Shalltear and Gargantua. She is with the opponent at this moment. As for Gargantua, they are too large."

She got up and offered a course of action.

"Lord Ainz, would it not be a good idea to call forth Rubedo?"

Ainz thought about it and decided to leave that as a last resort.

"Not yet, if all else fails I shall call her forth."

She left the throne room and left Ainz ton his panicking. As for Kurayami, his right eye was closed as he saw the entire exchange. He lifted the right lenses of his sunglasses and looked through the entirety of the tomb to look for Rubedo.

He found her on the 8th floor and from the look of her, she was a kind of Golem or Android. As for her power, she was the strongest being in the Tomb, but the 8th floor was full of powerful beings worth recruiting.

If anything, this place was full of people that would be good to recruit to his faction. He did not know how he would turn Ainz as he did not have blood, but maybe he could give him a rib or something.

Removing a bone for him was as easy as simply ejecting it out of his body. Now, the main question he had was why an Undead ruler had a succubus that was obsessed with him.

'A Lich is the king of this place, but why does he have a succubus with him. Undead of that variety have zero interest in sex, even a succubus is not enough to rose a hint of lust in their mind.'

He turned toward Shalltear who was leading him through the 3rd floor at the moment. Most of the guards here were Mid to High-Class Undead that he found very useful. If Raynare could empower them, maybe they would have useful shock troops.

Shalltear noticed him walk up to a Royal Guarder who continued to stare into empty space. Ainz had ordered them not to attack and they followed his will to the letter.

Kurayami turned to Shalltear with some interest.

"What is this? I know it is undead, but what kind?"

She walked next to him as Ainz sent her a message to keep Kurayami entertained.

"This is a Nazarick Master Guarders, they are summoned by the tomb itself with no requirements. They defend from intruders, like you."

Kurayami patted the skeleton on the face and transferred a healthy dose of his Death energy into it making the undead begin to shake and quake.

'Serve.'

The Nazarick Master Guarders, broke free of the programming and moved behind Kurayami. Shalltear saw that he easily took control of one of the guards of this place. No one should be able to do that as the Undead were safe from brainwashing.

Submission and Rebellion began to clap at the sight. Rebellion even openly praised him.

"That is our master, no creature can resist your might."

Kurayami nodded as he looked at Shalltear.

"Let's proceed, I would like to keep this guy. Even if he has no soul, I think I can get him a good one."

Shalltear gulped as she did not want to get brainwashed as well.

"I don't see why not. These appear for no charge so one will not affect much.'

Kurayami placed his hand on her shoulder as he knew that they were delaying him. He did not mind it all that much, but from what he could see going up and down was hard. They had special gates for it so he decided to skip that trip.

"The tour can come later, Shalltear."

A magic circle appeared under them 5 of them and teleported them into the throne. Demiurge, Mare, Aura, Cocytus, and Albedo had assembled here to wait for Kurayami and Shalltear.

All of them were kneeling at the feet of Ainz as he sat on his throne trying to plan something. Sebes and the Battle Maids were all poised and waiting, but what they did not expect was for Kurayami to simply teleport here.

Ainz's emotions had to be suppressed as teleportation was impossible unless one had the Guild Member ring.

'HOW! THAT IS NOT FAIR! Ok, calm down. He did not kill Shallltear so maybe he does not want to kill us.'

"You can stop panicking, I do not indeed to kill any of you.'

The guardians assumed a battle stance safe for Shalltear who he had grabbed. His left arm was wrapped around her slender cold neck and she could feel the strength behind his arm. As she was in close contact with him. she felt the wonderful aura that he radiated.

His aura worked on Beasts, and UNDEAD making her face flush. She still was loyal to Ainz, but was enjoying this that bad? She looked at her fellow guardians who were prepared to Kurayami.

Ainz raised his hand to get them to back off.

"Do not attack. If you have come here, it means you have a reason. Say it."

'PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!'

Kurayami broke out laughing when he heard the inner voice of Ainz. He let go of Shalltear who was honestly a little disappointed. He snapped his fingers and stopped time all around except for his group and Ainz.

"You can talk normal, friend. I can see you were once human and from Earth. I wanted to talk to you face to face before anything else. I am Kurayami, you."

Ainz for a second did not know how to answer, but Kurayami did not rush him. Ainz sighed as he said his real name.

"Suzuki Satoru. It was once my name when I was a normal Salaryman. Please, I prefer the name Ainz. I have no interest to return to my old life."

Kurayami nodded as he looked at Albedo. She was only wearing two skimpy pieces of clothes that barely hid her nipples and privates. She looked like an extremely alluring succubus, but her power was real.

"I can see why. Here you are powerful, respected, a leader and in your world, you were a slave. I know the feeling well. I was once from a different Earth and was named Akuma. I was enslaved and turned into an assassin against my will until I was killed."

Ainz was now interested in that life as there were different Earths.

"Are you saying that other Earths exist? The multiverse is real?"

Kurayami nodded as he already knew of three.

"It must as I have now learned of three different ones. The one where I grew up, the one I was sent to after my death, and yours. Now the real reason why I am here on this world. Conquest, this world is the first we discovered and we see it as a treasure trove of resources."

Ainz sighed as he thought of Demiurge.

"I may already be set on that as well. I have to keep my persona of a powerful leader so I keep up the act. I might have hinted that I wanted to rule the world and my Demon Strategist is obsessed with making it true. He thinks I am smarter than I really am. At the same time, I kind of enjoy it as opposed to my usual personality. Now, what do you propose."

Kurayami walked up to Ainz and extended his hand to him.

"I want you to be my friend. My organization is called Grigori and in my dimension, we are starting to spread into the Stars. We have barely started on the Moon and your dimension was the first we found. I want you to join as a partner."

Ainz looked at Kurayami's hand and thought of it. He finally met someone that understood him as he normally felt lonely. He reached out and shook Kurayami's hand.

"Let's work together then."

Rebellion walked up to Ainz and grinned at him.

"You have chosen correctly skeleton. Otherwise, your skull would have decorated the shrine I made for my master."

When Ainz heard the term Shrine he thought of the yanderes in the stories and games he read before. As for Submission, she covered her face as she found her sister embarrassing.

Kurayami raised his hand as he returned to his former standing spot. He grabbed Shalltear again and looked at Ainz.

"Let's make a show. Can't have you losing your reputation to your followers can we?"

Ainz cleared his voice as he prepared to get into character.

"Proceed."

Kurayami unfroze time which made Shalltear realize she was once again being held by Kurayami. She blinked a few times as she did not even notice anything. She decided to enjoy the limited time in his arms.

Ainz's eyes glowed bright red as he looked at Kurayami.

"My guardians, I order you to cease your aggression. We have already made a deal while you were frozen in time."

Hearing that made them all shiver knowing that their master and the invader were stronger than they thought. Demiurge was shaking as he wanted to praise the genius and power of Ainz.

'SUBARASHI! The power and untold genius that our Lord Ainz has.'

Kurayami nodded as he looked at Ainz.

"I take we will begin the plan soon."

Ainz nodded.

"Yes, the plan shall be set in motion soon."

Demiurge's head was moving back and forth between them.

'The plan? The plan. This must be a grand scheme on a level I cannot even begin to comprehend. The genius of a Supreme Being is beyond what I can even imagine.'

Ainz and Kurayami were speaking through telepathy so it seemed they were in sync. Kurayami brought up a great idea as it would work.

"From what I know, the Three Kingdoms of the Continent have different values. I value the Empire the highest for its discipline and innovation. My friend Azazel is already over there making contact with its emperor. As for the Slane Theocracy, they are religious fanatics that will be hard to convert."

Ainz thought of it and saw a good opportunity.

"My necromancy can make undead on mass, however, they can't grow stronger. I say it would be a good way for us to make disposable troops."

Kurayami shook his head.

"Those limits can be broken. Maybe not the power of this world, but the one in the mine can make you break any of those limits. The kingdom is full of incompetent nobles, rulers, and full of crime. It is a mercy to take it over and it's people can be used to make more undead."

Just as Kurayami and Ainz were talking, Kurayami felt that Tyrant had just been attacked with a powerful brainwashing technique. The Heavenly Dragon level Tyrant tanked the blow and only for a second was affected.

His soul was connected to Kurayami, so his soul was as strong as Kurayami's meaning he was immune to brainwashing techniques. However, it did have one effect on Tyrant. It enraged him to no end that Tyrant went full outrage mode.

Kurayami connected his mind to Tyrants and broke him out of outrage mode.

'Not yet, your rage has time and place. Take the strongest being there and return.'

Tyrant obeyed, but he first killed the one who attacked his mind. While was rampaging, Zesshi had equipped all of her most powerful weapons, rings, armor, and medallion to face Tyrant. She even wore the equipment of her ancestor against the orders the cardinals.

An insane smile was on her face as she thought she found a worthy opponent.
