In the round table hall of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, there were forty-one chairs for guild members around a white table. However, most of them were empty. There were two beings of non-human races in the hall. After my return and introduction in the throne room, Momonga and I teleported to the ninth floor, instructing to take the Professor to the guest room so that we could discuss our plans and actions in detail. I noticed that the "Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown" was no longer in the round table hall.
"You made a great speech, Ayanokouji-san! If I were you, I'd be shaking with fear. You were amazingly calm."
"Actually, I was very nervous about it Momonga-san, after all, I am a typical high school student. Since childhood, I have not been very good at showing emotions. Also, I miss your charisma"
It's true. I had never performed in front of so many people before. The only event remotely similar to this was my presentation in the class, which I completely failed.
"I am saved by my suppression of emotions and a skull without flesh. If I were in a living body, I would be a laughing stock."
He said sarcastically. For an ordinary person, such a load would be almost incomprehensible. Servants see you as something you are not, and we have an obligation to uphold that image. It will be very difficult for us to get used to royal life. The fact that Momonga became undead was a real salvation for him. For me, after being transferred to this world, practically nothing has changed, at least mentally.
"I noticed that the guild staff was missing. Did you move it to the eighth floor? This is the only place safer than this."
"You're right, I did it on the first day. Left under Aureol Omega's guard"
It was a wise move. It was not immediately known whether all the servants of the guild were loyal. Entering the eighth floor is dangerous for all creatures except our guild members, including NPCs.
Momonga then shared with me the story of arriving in this world. Before the server closed, he sat on the throne of the tenth floor. After the incident, he tested his magic, gathered the guards, and, confirming his loyalty, ordered Nazarick to be disguised by raising the security level to the maximum. He also ordered to improve the message system by creating a circular notification system. The idea was to use a special folder for notes, which would be passed between the servants to speed up communications within the Tomb. For example, the Floor Guardians can write some non-urgent messages there and then read them. I was a little glad that Momonga was the guild leader. If Ulbert had charisma, and Punitto Moe was an excellent strategist, then Momonga combined both of these qualities, albeit to a slightly lesser extent.
"Momonga-san, did you change Albedo's settings? She acted very strangely on our joint mission."
He shuddered and turned away in embarrassment, placing his bony hand on the skull.
"Yes, this is my mistake. Terrible mistake. I ruined Tabula-san's creation as a joke, and now I remind myself of this every time I see her love for me."
