A gigantic table carved of gleaming black stone sat in the center of the room, surrounded by forty one luxurious chairs. However, most of those seats were empty. Once, every single place had been filled, but now only two were occupied. One of the seated people was clothed in a magnificent black academic robe, edged in violet and gold. The collar seemed excessively gaudy, but somehow it fit the overall design. However, the exposed head was a bare skull. Points of dark red light glowed in its large eye sockets, and behind that skull glowed a halo of black radiance.
The being in the other seat was not human either, merely a mass of a black, sticky substance. Its tar-like surface roiled and writhed continuously, never staying in the same shape for more than a second. The former was an Overlord — the highest-ranked of those magic casters who had become undead in order to learn the most potent spells. The latter was an Elder Black Ooze, which boasted the most powerful corrosive ability of the slime families.
"I'm having trouble staying awake... I think I'll log off first. I'm glad I could meet you in the end. Goodnight."Said the elder black ooze or rather herohero. "Today's the last day of the game, I know you're tired, but we'll never have a chance like this again, why don't we stay together until the end—" Of course, there was no response, because Herohero had already returned to reality. "Haahh." "This is the Great Tomb of Nazarick that we built together! How could you abandon it just like that!?" "No they did not abandon it but made a choice between fantasy and reality.
Momonga picked up the staff of ainz ooal gown that had been crafted by the last few remaining members of the guild.
"I wonder of Shiraori-san will come online today. Probably will, she was the only other player that stayed behind after all." Speaking of Shiraori-san, she was truly a strange one. Momonga recollected their first encounter together as he walked past the unconquerable great underground tomb of nazarick. She seemed to be online most of the times but that makes sense considering the reason she gave. Apparently she had a terminally ill disease due to which she could not leave bed, so YGGDRASIL was her only source of freedom. Poor girl. That's why we made an exception and allowed her to join ainz ooal gown even if she was not a working member of society. She also rarely ever spoke using her own voice relying on the chat software instead to communicate, which she did a lot. When she did speak it was a couple of barely audible words causing peroronchino to name her kuudere-chan before getting beaten up by her.
Momonga thought about the time when their guild ventured into one of the highest level dungeons in YGGDRASIL a few years back-the great elroe labyrinth and sank into the depths of memories....
---------------------------
"Grasp heart" Momonga muttered, causing the great elroe basilisk to collapse dead before vanishing. The upper and middle stratum of the labyrinth no longer possessed any challenge at all to the members of ainz ooal gown's fully levelled members. As if on cue, Momonga saw Touch-me and Ulbert Alain Odle, two of the strongest players in Yggdrasil coming towards him while having their usual squabbles. Interestingly there was another player called 'Shiraori' on the leaderboard that was as strong as them but surprisingly no one had really seen her until now. Bukubukuchagama, peroronchino and tabula smargadina also appeared out of a gate having cleared out the areas they were responsible for as planned earlier.
"Let's head deeper." Momonga said. The great elroe labyrinth was going to be their training ground before they conquered the great underground tomb of nazarick. They had already made sufficient preparations with the latter being their goal for quite a long time.
"Is that some sort of spider monster over there?" Tabula remarked with surprise in his tone drawing their attention towards where he pointed. Upon inspection the others could understand his surprise as they had never seen this sort of spider monster in the dozens of times they had raided the labyrinth. Causing them to appraise said spider monster.
[Name:
Race: Minimum Lesser Horo Neia (Unique Species)
Level: 0
Racial Classes :?
........]
All the other parts were blank. But one thing caught their attention.
[Creator/Summoner: Shiraori].
Normally YGGDRASIL's system would give the title of summoner for a summoned beast, not creator. The only exception was if a player somehow managed to create a new species in some unknown manner. That would make sense considering the unique species in brackets. This spider seemed to have been created recently as its even weaker than when players first create their accounts and has not evolved yet. The other thing that caught their attention was that the creator was the aforementioned mysterious shiraori. Their thoughts were cut short as the spider monster noticed them and ran away deeper into the labyrinth.
"Let's follow it for now." Momonga declared, genuinely curious about the player shiraori.
-----------------------------
A/N: I know I said Shiraori will join Ainz Ooal Gown in this chapter, but as I started writing the chapter turned out like this. Anyway if I write like I have planned then, Ainz Ooal Gown will meet shiraori and shiraori will join them by next or next to next chapter. I will try to wrap up Yggdrasil as quickly as possible so that the story can move onto marvel. Also Ainz will not be going to marvel with Shiraori as most of the fanfics of overlord I have read have Ainz going to the new world with the mc.
