Overlord X Reader (Nazarick's Draconic Goddess)

Ains' POV;
I gazed at the empty spot between Demiurge's arms where Drakiania once was. There was another long drag of silence before a groaning sound from behind us alerted our memory that there was an outsider with us.

Demiurge hastily stood up and donned his mask before announcing loudly for the outsider that he shall henceforth retreat. The decorated cuffs laid on the floor in a rumpled heap, Evileye had managed to heal herself before realising that the 'enemy' was gone. She let out a happy gasp before running towards me, exclaiming "You did it! You won..." but she came to a stop to look at what I was staring at; the cuffs.

"No, it don't really think I'd count this as a win..." my voice sounded exhausted, Naberal was still supporting me a little. That spell was brutal, but it was my fault for shouting things before I thought about it through. The spell that Drakiania used; [Dragon Goddess' Tears:Forsaken] was like a special skill more than a spell. The pre-requisition for even attaining the skill were level 10 in both draconic racial classes of God Beast and Primordial Dragon. It puts the sufferer in a similar mental prison to how much pain the caster is in. Depending on how much the caster is in pain- a combination of both mental and physical, the sufferer will be put through a pain that is of the same intensity. Or in simplified terms, I felt the same pain she felt. The duration of the skill is entirely based on the mental capacity and strength of the caster, knowing Drakiania, she could have easily held the skill's influence over me for more than half a month with ease.

With a sigh, I bent down and picked the broken cuffs up. She had damaged them into shambles just for the sake of the plan and for keeping the story of Darkness' Momon and Kiania consistent. Even when she was drowning in the pain, she still thought about others first.

In Nazarick with the homunculi maids...
All the homunculi maids were gathered in front of Pestonya and Sebas, the new maid in question, Tuareninya stood at the front beside Pestonya. The maids lined up in neat rows before the Head Maid of the homunculi and the former Head of the Pleaides.

"From now on, we have a new maid who will be serving in the name of Nazarick with you. Woof." Said maid bowed in front of her peers, introducing herself and placing herself in their care.

Sebas looked on with mixed emotions. He was happy that the human he had saved would be safe in Nazarick, there wasn't any other place that could be safer than here. But at the same time, he was questioning if this was right. Was he being selfish and disregarding the very Being that he served? He knew that Lady Drakiania was far from pleased upon hearing the news and there were rumours floating about that the Supreme Beings were arguing and debating this matter. A human in the walls of Nazarick...

"Well said. Even though he did catch my attention, he is a human. Never allowed to even be a part of Nazarick, it is a fundamental rule, human shall never be in the ranks of Nazarick. No matter the person, humans are never to reside or even step in our home on friendly or fair terms." Those where the exact words that Lady Drakiania had spoke to him when they first stepped out into the New World, yet he had disregarded them completely by saving the human girl.

Even when in the mansion when she had held him back to give him a warning that she was not pleased and that the outcome might not be pleasant, his brain had turned up a blank. The Supreme Beings were the only ones he served and could ever allow himself to serve. She had warned him that she would take matters into her own hands should she not get what she wants through diplomacy. She had warned him when there was no need to. He did not know what to do. How could he respond to his enraged Goddess?

3rd Person POV;
Among the streets of Kingdom, whispers about the Demon Emperor kidnaping and brainwash of the adamantite adventurer, The Red Dragon Kiania, swept the people like wild fire. People were enraged that the demon had taken one of their best heroes and from Darkness no less. The source of this accurate (actually doctored for Nazarick's plans) information was none other than the new admirer Evileye herself. The fact that the news came from a member of Blue Rose had somehow automatically made it reputable, goes to show the absolute blind faith people have in their heroes.
