Zongman: I'm working hard to develop my daily life in the time-travel series

Aqua looks quite like a goddess when she's drunk...

“Okay, let’s have a big banquet when we get back to Axel.”

Upon hearing this, Akya cheered and kissed Shi Yu on the cheek.

What she enjoyed most was partying with Axel and his carefree adventurers, something she could never experience during her boring, repetitive days of fooling people in the Celestial Realm.

Seeing this, the vampire princess Yue showed a jealous expression.

She walked up to the two of them, pouted, pointed to her cheek, and said, "I want one too!"

Shi Yu looked at Yue with some surprise, as this was the first time Yue had taken this step in a while.

Perhaps because Shi Yu has too many female admirers, this slightly cunning half-vampire has always maintained a distance between Shi Yu that is more than ambiguous but not quite lovers.

Has Aqua's provocation finally made her see the light?

Shi Yu looked at Yue with a smile. The reason he told Yue before that she should first learn to change size at will was to cultivate their relationship more.

Now that they've taken such initiative, I naturally don't have any...

Just as Shi Yu was preparing for his next move, Aqua's voice suddenly came from the side.

"Huh? You have this hobby too? So you've been influenced by the greatness of this goddess? As a believer, this is a reward for you."

The next second, Aqua suddenly grabbed Yue's cheek and gave it a big kiss.

Yue's pretty face turned bright red, and she looked at Aqua in shock, her whole body steaming, before fainting.

This is not because I'm shy.

This was purely because Aqua's innate purifying constitution neutralized Yue's magic, which possessed vampire blood.

In Another World Quartet, Aqua once cast a low-level Undead Purification spell on Ainz and the others.

As a result, Ainz Ooal Gown, who was caught off guard, was almost killed on the spot, while Shalltear, the vampire, was also unconscious, and Albedo, the succubus, was struggling to put up a fight while panting heavily.

Only Xiao Di, a pure-blooded demon, along with the dark elf siblings and the Insect King, were not greatly affected.

Therefore, Aqua's damage to vampires is no less than that to undead; it's true damage...

……

On the other side, Ainz Ooal Gown went straight to his stronghold Nazarick after leaving Yerantil.

With his attribute value dropping to level 1, he felt that the world was full of dangers.

Of course, this was just his imagination.

Even if I drop back to level 1,

However, the attribute bonuses from resetting to max level have already brought his base attributes to 100 points, the level of Brave Glory.

According to the game's mechanics, a level 1 character should only have single-digit base stats.

His current base attribute of 100 points has given him some hope for the future.

The moment Ainz Ooal Gown arrived at the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Albedo had already teleported to his side using the Administrator's Ring:

"Lord Ainz, you're back so soon?"

Ainz Ooal Gown nodded hesitantly:

“That’s right, something has come up. This time it will probably require careful consideration. Please help me gather the guardians who are still at the base.”

·· ········Requesting flowers····· ···

"Yes, Lord Ainz!"

Albedo left with a look of delight, having always been strongly opposed to Ainz Ooal Gown leaving Nazarick alone to gather intelligence.

After a while,

Many guardians gathered in the guild hall.

At this moment, Ainz, holding the guild scepter Ainz Ooal Gown, sat on the throne of the King of World Items, wearing a tattered red mage's robe.

Albedo, Aura, Mare, and Cocytus knelt respectfully below.

Shalltear, Demetrius, and Sebastian were sent by Ainz Ooal Gown to gather intelligence on this world.

Albedo frowned as she looked at the somewhat shabby Ainz Ooal Gown.

"Lord Ainz, where is that divine artifact cloak you usually wear?"

Ainz Ooal Gown's heart tightened. He had already reached into his infinite storage ring, which was filled with all the guild's treasures, ready to make a run for it at any moment.

... ...... ...

That divine artifact was simply too low-level for him to wear.

Ainz Ooal Gown looked at the few remaining guardians below and slowly spoke:

"I have reset my level back to level one."

As soon as this word comes out,

Albedo and the others stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

"Why!?"

Ainz Ooal Gown's heart tightened. He suppressed the urge to use an item to escape and said in a high-pitched voice:

"Because this is my plan! It's a necessary condition for me to become stronger and surpass the gods!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ainz Ooal Gown with fervor.

Seeing that these guys seemed to really believe it, Ainz Ooal Gown quickly pressed his advantage and told Albedo and the others about resetting their levels, retaining their classes, and reinforcing their attributes.

Looking at the admiring eyes of Albedo and the others,

The Bone King suddenly spoke loudly, feigning ferocity:

"Now is when I am at my weakest. I trust you, which is why I entrusted you with this important task of protecting me. I hope you will not let me down."

As Ainz spoke, he nervously opened the portal behind him.

Fortunately, the skills did not disappear as the level decreased.

Otherwise, he would never have come here to risk his life and test the loyalty of the Guardians of Nazarick.

He had already planned that if anyone showed even the slightest sign of rebellion, he would immediately flee with the treasure.

Fortunately, his worst fears did not come true.

Hearing Ainz Ooal Gown's unwavering trust in them, Albedo and the others excitedly swore an oath:

"Yes, sir! We swear to protect Lord Ainz to the death!"

Upon seeing this, Ainz Ooal Gown breathed a sigh of relief. If his bones had been able to feel nothing, he might have been covered in cold sweat.

"Very well, in that case, let's now outline our new development strategy for Nazarick!"

"First, we need to find a city called Axel!"

Chapter 84 Good things come to those who wait~ Respectfully submitted by Nicholas Shi Yu

Although Ainz Ooal Gown was tricked, he did do something.

Through blackmail and compromise, he still managed to gather a great deal of intelligence.

He learned that Shi Yu and the others were adventurers from a city called Axel.

Therefore, he wanted to conduct some reconnaissance work in advance during his leveling-up period.

There's something wrong with him unconditionally giving Shi Yu the Reset Potion, such a good thing, because he always felt kind enough to do so.

So he ordered Xiao Di and the others to inquire about Axel's intelligence.

Meanwhile, he will take the opportunity to level up, and when he returns to his peak, he will transcend the player level and become a BOSS-like existence!

Ainz Ooal Gown happily envisioned an invincible future.

As he traveled, he arrived at the forest on the edge of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

I checked with the telescopic vision tool before, and there are still quite a few low-level monsters here that Mare hasn't cleared out yet.

It's more than enough to upgrade him from level 1.

In addition, Albedo personally protected him while he leveled up!

I believe it won't be long before he's back to max level!

If you combine the race and class of the ruler of death with the peak undead and level them up to the maximum, wouldn't your stats be off the charts?

The more Ainz Ooal Gown thought about it, the more it made sense, and unconsciously a large crack appeared on his skeletal face.

With a whoosh, forced calmness appeared.

A wave of rage surged through Ainz Ooal Gown's mind. He couldn't even give himself a moment of pleasure. These damn undead were truly disgusting.

Poor Ainz Ooal Gown had no idea that in the neighboring world of Subarashiki, there was a lich with the Undead King class who was worrying every day about when she would marry Shi Yu. Her emotions were not affected by the undead at all. Well, to be precise, Wiz was a berserk ice witch when she was alive, but she became gentle after she died.

It can only be said that the isekai setting of Ainz Ooal Gown's rebirth was just unlucky.

Soon, Ainz Ooal Gown and Albedo found a wood-type forest wolf.

Based on the level system, it should be around level 10.

In this world where level 35 is already the strongest in the kingdom, level 10 is already considered a decent mini-boss.

Ainz Ooal Gown shamelessly addressed Albedo beside him:

"Albedo, be careful to protect me."

Albedo nodded, showing no sign of disdain for Ainz Ooal Gown:

"Yes, I understand."

Having resolved his worries, Old Bone immediately perked up again:

"Though it is unfortunate, it is an honor for you to offer your experience to me, the supreme ruler of Nazarick! Sine! Dragonlight!"

A bolt of lightning shot out from Ainz's fingertip, and the level 5 lightning instantly turned the poor forest wolf into a charred mess.

Ainz nodded, and said with some excitement:

"Hmm, being able to retain skills is indeed incredibly powerful. Although I can't use some high-level spells, I can still easily cast these low-level spells thanks to my current basic attributes."

Albedo, standing behind, promptly offered a word of flattery:

"As expected of the great Lord Ainz!"

However, the next second,

A green light, representing suppressed emotions, began to flash wildly across Ainz Ooal Gown's body.

Albedo, standing nearby, seemed to have noticed her boss's excited state of mind.

"What's wrong, Lord Ainz? Are you excited about leveling up?"

Ainz waved his hand, trembling.

Then he took out a brocade pouch that Shi Yu had given him before he left from his storage space.

He once said that when you encounter a bottleneck, you can take this out to look at, which should help you find the answers.

With trembling hands, Ainz Ooal Gown pulled a folded piece of paper from his pouch.

Then he carefully unfolded it.

[Dear Fellow Villager, I forgot to tell you, I once heard a rumor somewhere that the less talented a person is, the faster they level up, while the more talented a person is, the slower they level up. Good things come to those who wait~ Your buddy, Nicholas Shiyu]

Ainz Ooal Gown: "..."

(╯‵□)╯︵┻━┻！

Holy shit!

……

On the other side, Shi Yu slowly awoke in a luxurious mansion.

At this moment, a cute and alluring little girl was lying next to him.

It was Moon, the vampire princess he rescued from the underground labyrinth.
