Roaring Heroes Battle the Overlord (Ainz) - Part 1 (Chapters 1 to 200)

Chapter 124: Cat

After the dinner party, Martin Smith arranged the most comfortable guest room in the castle for the two adventurers. Although it was a double room, Barrett specifically requested that two beds be set up. The lord was slightly surprised but agreed without hesitation.

The guest room was furnished with intricate and beautifully designed furniture, and the walls were decorated with pink wood-carved little bear patterns. On the wardrobe shelves, several soft-cover books were displayed. EeDeChi casually picked one up and glanced through it; they were all romance novels about knights and princesses, or knights and princes.

"Could the lord be giving us his daughter's room?" EeDeChi stuffed the book back onto the shelf.

"Who cares, just sleep," Barrett said, fresh from a relaxing hot bath. He threw himself onto the large bed and lazily stretched out.

EeDeChi's gaze drifted across the bookshelf, and her eyes were suddenly drawn to a book with a cover featuring a burning skull. By instinct, she figured this book had something to do with Ainz Ooal Gown.

Carefully, EeDeChi pulled the book out and took a look. The red leather cover had gold-embossed cursive text that read:

"The Extraordinary Demon Lord's Exclusive Love for the Proud Princess"

The title page had an illustration of an undead figure, engulfed in blue magical flames, holding a pure white bridal-gowned girl who was blushing fiercely. The image somehow felt oddly harmonious.

It was hard to believe that someone was actually writing stories based on Ainz Ooal Gown these days. EeDeChi opened the book with an air of dismissiveness. She skimmed through ten chapters in just a few minutes before realizing that this book had nothing to do with Ainz Ooal Gown.

The book was written a hundred years ago, and its content mainly told the story of a girl breaking free from the constraints of society and falling in love with a demon lord whose body was made of skeleton bones.

A certain unknown minstrel, tired of the usual clichés about knights, princesses, princes, and adventurers, decided to write a story that went against the grain.

EeDeChi flipped through the pages of the book with a rustling sound, reading at a speed of fifty lines per glance. Soon, she had finished the entire story.

A novel that started with an unusual twist ultimately ended with a clichéd conclusion to cater to the idealistic fantasies of young boys and girls.

The male protagonist in the book, the white skull demon king, receives the blessing of the Tree of Life and grows a massive cock, ultimately living happily ever after with the female lead. The author deliberately details the sexual intimacy between the male and female protagonists on their wedding night, with such vivid descriptions that would leave ordinary readers breathless and flushed.

"This is such a trashy novel. How could a book like this be published? Doesn't this world have any censorship?" EeDeChi shook her head and placed the book back on the shelf.

Barrett, curious, picked up the book and flipped through a few pages, eagerly reading the climactic final chapters. He countered, "The people love it. If you don't like it, what does it matter?"

Under the fluffy cotton quilt, there was a jacquard fabric with a lily flower pattern. EeDeChi, dressed in a silk satin nightgown, crawled into bed, while Barrett blew out the long-necked oil lamp by the bedside. The two of them, resting their heads on soft velvet pillows, were ready to drift into a rare, peaceful sleep.

However, the sounds of chatter and the clashing of metal from the castle below disturbed the vast silence of the night. Barrett's sharp instincts made him toss and turn in bed. He quietly got up, pushed open the shutters, and peered outside.
