After immediately understanding what Demiurge meant, Albedo gave instructions:

"Then everyone, please offer your loyalty to the Supreme Being."

Everyone present nodded in unison, and before Suzuki Satoru could interrupt, everyone had already started to line up.

Albedo stood in front, and all the Guardians lined up behind her.

Each guardian had a serious and respectful expression, and there was no sign of joking at all.

After Shalltear left, Cocytus took a step forward and knelt down to perform the etiquette of a king and a subject. "Cocytus, the guardian of the fifth floor, pays respect to you, sir."

Next to come forward were the twin dark elves.

"Avri Bella Fiora, the guardian of the sixth floor, greets you, sir."

"I am also the guardian of the sixth floor, Mare Bello Fiore, and I am here to see you, sir."

Demiurge, who had already arrived next to the team, took a step forward gracefully.

"Demiurge, the guardian of the seventh floor, greets you, sir."

"Albedo, the Guardian Chief, greets you, sir."

Finally, Albedo took a step forward, completing the ceremony as the guardian of the estate.

Then, the butler Sebastian and the remaining three members of the Pleiades followed suit and performed the ceremony of king and subject.

Facing these lowered heads, Suzuki Satoru's throat, which should have been unable to make any sound, seemed to make a gurgling sound.

The scene was filled with an unusually oppressive atmosphere, and perhaps he was the only one who could feel the stinging air.

——I don’t know what to do.

Especially the incomprehensible looks from his new companions made him feel extremely ashamed.

——Luckily, there were no players like him around him, otherwise, seeing this situation, he might have been performing some shameful show in front of adults.

——But 607 is really amazing! I really feel like the supreme ruler of Nazarick.

——But what should I do in this situation? Although I have long been accustomed to this skeleton body, I have not learned any management methods for subordinates!

——And he can't just fool around. He still remembers the class guardians of Nazarick, all of whom have maximum attributes!

Suzuki Satoru, whose mind was in a state of confusion, activated his special ability once again, sometimes emitting aura around him, and sometimes emitting light from behind him.

Suzuki Satoru, who had no free time, searched desperately in his memory for scenes that he had seen in movies or on TV two hundred years ago.

"Lift your head."

"Well... first of all, thank you for welcoming me."

“Please don’t say thank you. We are all loyal subordinates to Master Momonga. Master Momonga is the supreme ruler to us.”

It seemed that no other Guardian was going to deny Albedo's answer.

He is truly worthy of being called the Guardian Chief.

Looking at the guardian's face with a serious expression, Suzuki Satoru vaguely felt his nonexistent stomach twitching secretly.

That was the pressure of suddenly becoming a leader, the feeling of being tightly pressed against the body.

"I also got a general idea of ​​your situation from Demiurge... Well, you performed well."

Suzuki Satoru spoke again, but of course he didn't actually know what was going on.

But earlier at the Baharu Empire, I inexplicably learned that my leaving Nazarick was a test for them... they would definitely live up to my words.

So I just followed this and continued to make it up.

Fortunately, seeing that the guardians had a good response, he continued to grit his teeth and praise them one by one.

Until they saw the guardians showing excited expressions after being praised.

Probably like it's easier to ask for something when the other person is in a better mood.

Suzuki Satoru, who had not used the workplace set in a long time, took the opportunity to ask the question that he had been concerned about.

“If I remember correctly, there is also Shalltear among the Floor Guardians, and there are three other combat maids in the Pleiades as well.”

Even after two hundred years, his memory of the special NPCs created by his companions has not diminished in the slightest.

When Shalltear and the others were mentioned, the atmosphere in the room immediately changed.

Suzuki Satoru could clearly feel that the atmosphere had suddenly become heavy.

Sure enough, something happened.

"Shalltear, Soluluka, Lupusregina, and Entoma have all betrayed Nazarick."

Albedo said solemnly.

"what?!"

Suzuki Satoru's eyes widened.

The non-existent heart seemed to be grabbed tightly.

After the shock, it turned into panic.

283: The Kingdom of God and Nazarick, the Inevitable Enmity

The sad news of Shalltear's betrayal inevitably plunged Suzuki Satoru into shock.

Soon, a calming effect came over him, slowly turning his shock into relief.

Suzuki Satoru looked at the Floor Guardians in front of him.

Yes.

As a result of the two hundred years of history, it is not only Nazarick but also these NPCs.

Suzuki Satoru felt unprecedented joy that the fruit of everyone's hard work and meticulous masterpiece still existed.

But then, he also realized the current situation.

This is no longer the game world of YGGDRASIL, but a reality with various life forms.

As the guild NPCs have become creatures that can move freely, it is normal for them, who also have self-awareness, to make decisions based on their own wishes.

——But...it turned out to be the Floor Guardian who betrayed, and it had to be Shalltear!

Not only was this the brainchild of Peroroncino, one of his close friends.

At the same time, Shalltear was designed to be an NPC that specializes in combat, and she can completely restrain herself who specializes in the necromancy system.

But now that it has happened, no matter how much you care, it will be of no use.

Rather, Shalltear's situation served as a reminder to him.

So Suzuki Satoru looked at the NPCs in front of him.

That was the hesitation of wanting to prove one's loyalty but not knowing how to express it.

Demiurge smiled.

He saw through the benevolent thoughts of the Supreme Being.

Rather than asking questions from the Supreme Being, it should be the essential duty of the class guardians to express their opinions.

"...Mr. Momonga, it is natural that you would hesitate. I admire your kindness immensely."

Demiurge spoke respectfully with a smile on his face and a stern and resolute tone:

"We will certainly not bring shame to Nazarick like Shalltear did. We swear to be your most loyal servants until death."

After Demiurge's statement, the other floor guardians echoed in unison.

Suzuki Satoru could sense the determination in that powerful voice.

Perhaps you don’t mention the impact and changes that your future mistakes will bring.

But from what I have seen, the NPCs designed by the members of Ainz Ooal Gown are trustworthy enough.

"very good."

Suzuki Satoru was deeply moved, but he remained calm and composed as he looked at the NPCs.

"Then Demiurge, report to me everything that happened while I was away from Nazarick."

Although the floor guardian Albedo was the original candidate to report the information.

However, considering the exchanges between the Baharu Empire and Demiurge, the underlying situation may have come more from this wise man of Nazarick.

"Yes!"

Demiurge stepped forward respectfully.

Since the day the Supreme disappeared.

Then came the process of gathering intelligence, Shalltear's unauthorized departure, and the betrayal incident.

Until now, they have used the Baharu Empire as bait and are preparing to strike at the Kingdom of God in Nazarick.

Suzuki Satoru listened carefully until the Shalltear incident began, and then he was stunned.

There are so many things that are too surprising.

But at least he has been traveling around the world for two hundred years.

Suzuki Satoru quickly integrated what Demiurge had said into his mind.

Then, there was a strong feeling of anger.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

After becoming an undead, his strong emotions would be automatically suppressed, but even if they were suppressed, new anger would immediately surge up.

At the same time, there came a terrifying momentum of a crazy explosion.

"Mr. Momonga, please calm down..."

Immediately, all the guardians of each class knelt on the ground.

This made the returning Supreme Being angry, and everyone was afraid that the Supreme Being would be disappointed in them and leave again.

Feeling the fear on the faces of the guardians and the surprise on the faces of his new companions, Suzuki Satoru realized that he was losing control of his emotions.

He quickly regained his composure and forcefully exhaled the nonexistent breath, as if he wanted to completely spit out the rage burning in his heart.

"…Sorry, I seem to have lost my mind a little. Just pretend you didn't notice my gaffe just now."

"Please don't say that, Master Momonga."

Albedo quickly spoke up, “This is all Shalltear’s own fault. We will never repeat her incompetence.”

Suzuki Satoru was displeased when he heard this, but he did not pursue the matter further.

In the eyes of NPCs whose loyalty is everything, betrayal means a mortal enemy that must be completely eliminated.

But in the eyes of Suzuki Satoru, who was once a player, this situation of possible forced betrayal is worthy of forgiveness and understanding.

After all, this world is very complicated, and world-class items are not something that NPCs can contend with.

"Albedo! Demiurge!"

At Suzuki Satoru's command, the Gentleman Demon and the Elegant Succubus stepped forward again.

"You will integrate all the information about the rulers of the Kingdom of God into the war plan for me."

"Yes!"

After instructing the two, Suzuki Satoru spoke again, “In short, now that I have returned to Nazarick, some of the work that my companions used to be responsible for will also be handed over to you. You must also perform your duties faithfully in the future.”

"At the same time, whether it's you or the new members who came with me, you are all my very precious family members! As long as Shalltear and Soluluka are not betraying me sincerely, I will never give up on them!"

Make the announcement, and watch the NPCs nod deeply and kneel down.

Suzuki Gocai teleported his new companions to the royal suite on the ninth floor.

Originally, before coming here, Suzuki Satoru, as the president, had planned to explain the real distribution of Ainz Ooal Gown's environment to the new members.

But now, he temporarily lost the mood.

So after settling everyone down, he returned to his bedroom which he hadn't seen for two hundred years.

He immediately lay down on the bed like a salted fish.
