MOMONGA NEW OVERLORD

ch 8: war

Ainz was currently in his office in E-rantel. Demiurge and others had decided to build a beautiful house worthy of a supreme being. 3 month has passed since he had become a Viscount. After an examination, he had learned that there are only 6 village in his territory. All of them have been devastated by the sunlight scripture's attack.

Ainz had immediately started a project to recover the villages. He had personally went there and helped them out. The villagers had viewed him positively because of this. When they heard that he was the one to kill the knights that had attacked them their opinion of him rocketed even further.

He had relocated the villagers that had their villages nearly eradicated to Carne village. Ainz currently has 4 villages that have recovered. He had given the villagers some golems to recover the man power.

Ainz shortly finished paperwork and went outside. He walks to the training grounds. He sees Nfiria and Enri are training hard. Enri had joined Nfiria after she had learned that Nfiria's kidnapping. They had become a lot stronger than before.

A villager runs towards him and says " Lord Ainz, A messenger of the king had arrived. "

Ainz nods and walks back to his office. A man appears and bows. The man then brings out a letter and reads it out loud.

The man says " Viscount Ainz ooal gown, The annual kingdom war is going to be upon us next month. You are hereby order to head to the capital as soon as possible. "

Ainz nods and lightly bows. The messenger then leaves the office. Ainz teleports to Nazarick shortly. He informs Albedo about it.

Albedo says " I think it is good of a chance to show our might. "

Ainz says " You are right about that. Then who should I send? They should look human atleast so It will reduce a lot of options. "

Ainz then takes out a list of the NPCs. He shortly writes the name of 4. Slade( Ancient Vampire), Thaddeus( Death Emperor ), Lancelot( knight ) and Antoinette( Ancient Dragon ).

He then calls for them. They arrive shortly after. They kneel for him. They were all in their human form.

Ainz says " There will be a war after a month. You four will be participating in it. "

Slade says " Don't worry, master. The battle field will be filled with my enemies blood. "

Thaddeus says " I wonder how there screams will be. "

Lancelot says " I will always obey my lord. "

Antoinette says " I will be able to show my worth to you, Lord Ainz. "

Ainz says " You mustn't change to your original form when fighting against them unless a stronger opponent appears also don't use powerful skills. "

They nod. Ainz then dismisses them. Ainz then teleports to the capital. Ainz then walks towards the castle. He enters and then goes to the throne room. He sees the king with some nobles.

The king says " You have arrived, Viscount Ainz. "

Ainz says " I will come when you call for me. "

The king says " Normally a Marquis or I would have led the war, but I would like for you to lead it this time. "

Ainz says " If I may ask? Why is that? "

The king says " Some nobles have been trying to lower your status and decrease my political power. After a rough conversation, I decided to appoint you as the leader. If there are little casualties not only you will have great merit and have equal authority no less than a Marquis, but also my political power and public image will improve. "
