Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow.

Chapter 346 Take action
For a moment, everyone around them could feel that the temperature around the two women seemed to have dropped several degrees.

"Lupusregina!" Yuri shouted before the situation got worse.

"Ms. Rose, I'm sorry, my companions have not yet learned enough etiquette." Yuri said to Rose.

"Ms. Yuri, there's no point in apologizing. You guys were showing off your power for your monarch, and I was responding strongly for my monarch. This is a clash of positions, and it's all for the sake of my monarch's face." Rose simply waved her hand.

"His Majesty Emperor Gilkenifer Rune Farod El Nix truly has an outstanding subordinate." Yuri said after a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

“Lord Ainz Ooal Gown has more than one outstanding subordinate.” Rose replied meaningfully.

"It's exactly as you said!" Yuri nodded in agreement.

After all, she couldn't say that her companion Lupusregina, and the siblings Aura and Mare who went to the palace last time, were not good enough.

"Well, the venue has been set up. If you don't mind, please take a rest here for a while. We have prepared drinks." Yuri immediately changed the subject.

After all, what needs to be tested has been tested. Although the show of force cannot be said to be successful, it is not a failure either. Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to continue to dwell on it.

After a while, Yuri, who had received the notification, came over and said, "Excuse me for waiting, Master Ainz is ready. Please come this way!"

After passing through the huge portal, everyone arrived directly at the entrance to the throne room on the tenth floor.

What catches your eye is the majestic double doors that are over five meters high, decorated with intricately carved statues. The right door is a goddess, and the left door is a demon statue. The design is quite realistic, and you can feel from a distance that they are about to attack from the door.

The next second, the door opened automatically at a slow speed consistent with its weight, and then the full view between the thrones appeared in everyone's sight.

The spacious room with high ceilings will not feel crowded even if hundreds of people come.

The ceiling is quite high, and the walls are white in color, with various decorations mainly in gold.

Several gorgeous crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling are made of colorful gems, emitting a dreamy and dazzling light.

There were huge flags with different patterns on the walls, and a total of forty-one flags fluttering in the wind from the ceiling to the floor.

In the room that uses a lot of gold and silver tones, there is a staircase with several steps, and above it is a huge throne made of huge crystal cuts, with a backrest that is as high as the sky.

At this moment, on the throne, Momonga held the Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown in his hand and stared at the people of the Empire who were constantly walking towards the front of the throne.

As Yuri, who was leading the way, stopped, Rose also stopped following Gilkenifer.

"Lord Ainz, the Emperor of the Baharus Empire, Gilkenifer Lune Farod El Nix requests a meeting with you," Albedo said while standing next to Momonga.

"You're well come, Emperor of the Baharu Empire. I am the master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Ainz Ooal Gown!" Momonga said.

“Thank you very much for your welcome, Lord Ainz Ooal Gown!” Gilkenifer responded modestly.

“Ainz-sama, you, a human of an inferior species, actually dare to have an equal conversation with Ainz-sama. I think this is extremely disrespectful! [Kneel down!]” Demiurge, with his frog head exposed, spoke rudely, and after he finished speaking, he shouted out a word spirit.

In just a moment, a special force enveloped everyone led by Gilkniver, pressing their bodies down to their knees like gravity.

Snapped!
The next moment, Rose's palm slapped Gilkniver's body.

He had originally only been able to rely on the defensive equipment on his body to resist the spell of words, but in an instant he felt the pressure disappear without a trace.

However, only Gilkniver enjoyed this treatment, as the others fell to their knees on the ground almost at the same time.

At this moment, on the platform, Demiurge and other members who saw this scene couldn't help but reveal expressions of surprise.

Demiurge's Word Art actually uses magic to forcibly influence the mind and then restrain the body to perform actions that are consistent with the Word Art.

In other words, Demiurge's move was similar to hypnosis with a compulsory effect.

Of course, unlike hypnosis, the target of the word spirit technique has a clear self-awareness.

But this kind of clarity is even more terrifying, and it can make the target feel the irresistible despair more clearly.

In fact, opponents whose spiritual cultivation has not reached a certain level will have no ability to resist this move.

If I really ask you to commit suicide, you will really commit suicide.

It was precisely because they knew the power of Demiurge’s Word Art that Momonga on the platform and several key cadres of the Great Tomb of Nazarick were extremely surprised.

Because Rose's move to remove the spell of words from Gilkenifer was quite skillful.

He didn't use any special magic or skills, he just used that one slap to dispel the magic power spreading from Demiurge.

That's right, Rose's slap was just her own power that dispelled the mental fluctuations transmitted through magic, thus blocking the influence of Demiurge's mind on Gilkenifer.

This also indirectly proves that Rose's understanding of magic has reached a very advanced stage.

Otherwise, it will be impossible to use methods that directly address the root cause of the problem.

"Stop, Demiurge!" Momonga's voice finally sounded 'appropriately'.

After all, even if Rose took action to remove Gilknifer's influence, the show still had to go on.

"As you wish, [free movement]!" Demiurge said immediately.

Only after Demiurge finished speaking did the people who were kneeling stand up.

But no one dared to show any dissatisfaction, and their faces only showed fear that they were trying hard to suppress.

"My subordinate was very rude. It was my fault for not disciplining him well. Can you please forgive me? If you request, I can bow my head and apologize!" Feishu said lightly.

After hearing this, no one present thought that Momonga really wanted to bow his head and apologize.

Of course, if Gilkniver is stubborn and dares to make such a request, Momonga will definitely do it. After all, a king’s word is a promise.

However, when it is the turn of the Bahas Empire to apologize, it is unknown how high the price Gilkniver will have to pay will be.

As the emperor, Gilkenifer knew this all too well. "No need to apologize, Your Excellency Gong. It is common for subordinates to misunderstand their master's intentions and act on their own. The people of the empire seem to have done the same thing. I am very ashamed. This is the head of the noble who sent people to invade your territory. He acted on his own and was extremely stupid. I hope you can accept it." Gilkenifer cleverly seized this opportunity to steer the topic towards apology.

Then Nippur, holding the jar containing the head, took two steps forward and handed the jar to Demiurge who was walking down.

"I accepted it. What should I do with it? It would be a waste to throw it away!" Flying Squirrel murmured as he grabbed the head from the jar.

After he finished speaking, the magic power in his body surged, and the head in his hand was covered with thick liquid and rolled out of Momonga's hand.

The next second, all I saw was the thick black liquid falling down, spurting out from the floor in one breath.

After the black liquid took shape, a huge black armor stood there.

This is the Death Knight!
"How is this possible?!" Gilkniver couldn't believe it when he saw this scene.

Could it be that those controlled Death Knights were also created in this way? !

At this moment, Gilkenifer was wondering how many such Death Knights Ainz Ooal Gown could create, and whether he could even create a monster above the Death Knight.

However, Momonga did not give him too much time to think. After giving the order to the Death Knight to join the ranks, he said, "Then, Sir Gilkniver Lune Farod El Nix."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Just call me Gilkniver!" Gilkniver replied with a hearty smile.

"Is that so? Then, Lord Gilkenifer, due to the rude behavior of my subordinates, the trouble that your country's nobles brought to Nazarick has been wiped out. So there is no need to apologize, and you can go back." Momonga said lightly.

"Ha" Gilkniver was incredulous when he heard this.

After all, he really didn't believe that the other party would let go of the previous incident so easily.

Because if he were in Flying Squirrel's shoes, he would not be able to get over it without losing some skin.

"Please go back, we will be busy from now on! Thanks to you, I realized that even if I live an honest life, I will be involved in troubles. So I plan to go to the ground and solve all the troubles." Feishu's voice gradually became louder.

"What do you mean?" Gilkniver frowned when he heard this.

"First, I want those who plotted against us to pay for their stupidity! Then, as for those annoying guys, I will gradually eliminate the source of trouble until I can regain the silence that I love so much." Momonga said coldly.

After hearing what Momonga said, Gilkniver felt horrified.

At this moment, he almost understood why the other party called him here.

Because what he just said was almost equivalent to a declaration of war.

This means that if nothing is done now, the empire will become an enemy of the monster before it.

The final outcome is self-evident.

So the only thing we can do now is to hurry up and submit.

"I have a suggestion. How about we form an alliance?" After realizing that he and the empire were on the brink of life and death, Gilkniver spoke after thinking quickly.

“It should be surrender!” Before Shalltear could finish her words, she was kicked on the butt by Aura beside her.

"I'm talking about you."

Just as Aura was about to say something, Momonga's extremely dignified voice rang out: "Shut up, it's too noisy!"

Flying Squirrel waved his hand majestically, as if he had been in a dominant position for a lifetime and had naturally acquired such behavior.

People who didn't know his background were completely fooled by his behavior at this moment, just like Aura and Shalltear, who immediately shut up and stood still obediently.

"I think it would be a great thing to establish your country here and have you ascend the throne to rule. Only this position is suitable for Your Excellency Gong, and our empire hopes to provide you with the greatest support and help you build your country. What do you think, Your Excellency Gong?" Gilkniver tried to continue the previous topic with a dry mouth.

“Will this not benefit Lord Gilkenifer?” Hearing this, Momonga’s tone softened a lot from before.

"For the sake of the future, I hope that the country you rule and my empire can form a friendly alliance." Gilkniver replied with a sincere attitude.

"I see. I'll leave it to you then." Momonga answered very straightforwardly. After all, this was his purpose.

Gilknifer was quite surprised after hearing this answer. After all, it was far different from what he expected.

And Momonga's answer gave him a feeling that his reaction was just as he expected.

"Is that so? That's great. Then if there's anything you want us to do, can you tell us now?" Gilkniver asked with all his might.

"I can't think of it at the moment, but I hope to establish a method to contact you at any time, such as arranging a place for my messenger." Momonga replied after thinking for a while.

"Well, you are right. I am so stupid that I didn't think of this problem immediately. You are worthy of being Lord Gong." Gilknifer began to speak politely.

"Hmm," Feishu responded lacking interest.

"Then I will go back, but I will leave the secretary here. Could you please send someone to negotiate with him on this issue? Rone Vanmillian!" Gilkniver shouted.

"Yes! I will devote my life to the empire and accomplish my mission!" Rone-Vanmillion walked up to Gilkniver and knelt on one knee and said.

"That's a very good answer. I can feel your loyalty to the emperor. Then we will send Demiurge. Although he was a bit offensive just now, since you don't care, let him deal with it." The flying squirrel on the stage immediately spoke.

After hearing what Momonga said, the corners of Gilkniver's mouth twitched slightly.

After all, Demiurge's words have a coercive effect, and the other party clearly wants to use this effect to make Rone their puppet, perhaps hoping to use this to get detailed information from within the empire.

It's so despicable!
"Demiurge is a close confidant whom I deeply trust. If the two parties talk it over, the negotiation process will surely go smoothly." Momonga ignored Gilkniver's curse in his heart and continued.

As for Momonga's move, Gilkenifer could only force a smile and replied, "That's great!"

"Well, now that our positions have changed, Master Jircniv has become my ally, so it would be inhumane to let you go back just like that. Since this is a rare opportunity, why don't you stay overnight before leaving? I will entertain you in various ways."
