"I will turn him and everything in this world into my food scraps—!!"

Then--

It makes no attempt to conceal its terrifyingly extreme desires.

Their goal is to devour the entire kingdom... no, the entire world.

Volume 3, OVERLORD: Chapter 62 The Blizzard Surrounding the Royal City

The next day arrived.

The sky was somewhat... no, very gloomy.

Is it going to rain?

Yan Ming walked alone on the street, and the people around him were all wearing thick clothes.

The weather seems a bit cold.

Yan Ming then walked down the street. Just now, a mother seemed to be missing her child and was now on her way to the place where the relevant matters were handled to make a request.

Besides that...

"...Where is Woz?"

After waking up in the Great Tomb of Nazarick in the morning, Yan Ming did not see Woz again.

He probably couldn't have gone far... If not, then where did he go?

With this question in mind, Yan Ming continued walking towards the Adventurers' Guild.

Oh well, that guy will definitely come if I call him.

————————————————————————

As it stands, Woz is still in the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

However, to be precise, it is the treasure vault of Nazarick.

Woz wasn't there to steal anything.

The vault itself has a lock with a special password that can only be unlocked, but for Woz, who has special abilities that allow him to travel to any place without anyone noticing, that means nothing.

If Woz wanted to, he could travel freely through any point in time, past, present, or future, using his physical body. How could a mere treasure vault stop him?

"The treasure vaults of Nazarick... have been recorded."

That's right.

The reason I came here is simply to record the history of the treasure vault.

Or rather, it also records the history related to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Woz opened the book in his arms, and countless words and images appeared in the Oma Zi-O Calendar KT, further accelerating the historical record of this world.

Or rather, there's really not much history left that needs to be recorded.

"Well then, it's about time to return to my Demon King's side."

Woz closed the book and then planned to leave.

—That moment.

A bolt of lightning flashed past him.

Woz made no move, letting the lightning flash by, causing a single strand of his hair to fall to the ground.

"...What are you here for?"

Standing there was a skeletal figure.

Ainz Ooal Gown, the master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

"As intruders, humans are somewhat inadequate... So, I'm asking you."

Ainz Ooal Gown raised his finger again, staring at Woz with murderous intent.

"I asked you what you've come here for? To my treasure vault in Nazarick!"

"Oh dear... this is really troublesome."

Woz sighed softly.

Then, without any fear, he slowly walked up to Ainz Ooal Gown.

"Show your true colors."

"Varied…"

"Don't be surprised. My Demon Lord and I have already met Ainz Ooal Gown. Even if he's angry with me, he shouldn't show this attitude of not recognizing me."

Although the other party disguised himself very well, his temperament, strength and everything else were almost identical to the real Ainz Ooal Gown.

But Woz still saw through the other party's disguise at a glance.

"...This is truly an extraordinary situation that is completely beyond our expectations."

Its form transforms into a liquid-like posture.

The large mass deformed on the spot, eventually transforming into a tangible human figure.

"So... if you're not here to steal, what do you intend to do in this precious vault of treasures?"

military uniform.

The person dressed in that outfit could be roughly identified as a man, wearing a military cap with the Ainz Ooal Gown guild emblem printed on it.

Its face is flat, leaving three empty spaces.

"If you're not a petty thief, then who are you?!"

Some of their actions and gestures were exaggerated.

The man twisted his body while pointing at Woz, who just shrugged indifferently.

"Let me introduce myself."

Then, Woz held the book in front of him and bowed respectfully.

"My name is Woz. I am the recorder of history, as well as the manager of history. I am the guide who follows the great Demon King and leads him to the ultimate time-space king, Oma Zi-O!"

"Ah—what a magnificent and solemn declaration!"

As if infected by Woz's atmosphere, the man started dancing and then shouted loudly.

"My creator is Lord Ainz! However, he later made me change my address to Lord Ainz, and I am the true ace created by that supreme being!"

“Pandora Arcturus—!! This is the name of sin, imbued with profound meaning, bestowed upon me by the Supreme Being!”

The strange man, who called himself Pandora, responded in the same way, as if using an operatic voice.

"Wow...that's a really great way to introduce yourself."

"You too, Your words resonate with me in an unparalleled way—Amazing!"

"Are you an NPC created by Ainz Ooal Gown?"

"That's right! You're the same, a loyal servant following a certain master, aren't you?"

"That's right! It seems that, judging from this point alone, we two are quite similar!"

Wozniak and Pandora Actor spoke in exaggerated tones and made bizarre gestures at the same time.

Pandora struck a pose as if saluting, while Woz held the book and shook it vigorously.

"Well then, my purpose here is complete. Thank you so much for allowing me to meet such a rare and tasteful person in such a place!"

"Not at all! That being said, your unauthorized trespassing into the treasure vault..."

"Ah, I came here for some unrelated purposes only, so you don't need to take me so seriously... May I leave now?"

"That still doesn't seem quite right. For me, staying here to guard this great treasure vault is an extremely important mission. How can I just let it go like this?!"

Pandora had just turned around.

Woz had already disappeared.

"...Huh? When did they run away?"

At the same time, Yan Ming only turned a corner before seeing a familiar figure.

"Oh my god! My Demon King!"

"Why do you look so happy?"

Yan Ming calmly ignored Woz, who had suddenly appeared; he was already used to it.

"What have you been doing up to just now?"

"It's nothing, just a small matter that I dealt with."

"A small matter? What small matter?"

"I was just wandering around when... I met a sophisticated person who seemed to have similar interests to talk to... but unfortunately, they didn't seem very friendly to me, so I had to leave as soon as possible."

I don't understand it, and I'm too lazy to figure it out.

Yan Ming completely ignored Woz's situation and walked directly down the street with him.

but.

Soon, Wozniak noticed something else.

"...The sky is very dark."

"It seems like this has been going on since last night... What's wrong with you?"

Yan Ming stopped in his tracks because he saw that Woz had also stopped there.

The other person was frowning as they looked up at the sky.

"Did you see something strange?"

"No... it's more accurate to say I felt it than saw it."

Immediately afterwards, Wozniak's expression became increasingly serious.

"...Oh no, my Demon King! Could this be...?"

"Explain yourself clearly, what exactly happened?"

Although Yan Ming asked this question, the shock in Woz's eyes grew stronger and stronger.

'I... I even came to this world, and I still got caught?!'

————————————————————————————

Ainz Ooal Gown remained in the room.

He doesn't plan to go out and explore as an adventurer today.

"Lord Ainz."

"Don't bother me for now, Demiurge. I'm trying to recall what happened yesterday."

"…OK."

To be precise, Ainz Ooal Gown was recalling the scene of chatting with Yan Ming the previous night.

He asked Yan Ming to stay overnight. Before that, the two of them discussed many things about the original world and also visited the great tomb together. During the day, he sent Yan Ming back to the outside world.

It truly was... a memory I'll never want to leave.

"And then... Demiurge, is there anything you're going to say to me?"

"Yes, Lord Ainz, it's actually about our scrolls."

Demiurge adjusted his glasses and took out a prepared list.

"Although Nazarick contains countless scrolls and items, relying solely on Nazarick's reserves will eventually lead to their depletion."

"So, are you planning to further consider how to produce the scrolls?"

"That's right. As expected of Lord Ainz, he figured it out in no time."

At this point, Demiurge seemed somewhat excited.
