Chapter 170 ~ Incomplete
Chapter 170 ~ Incomplete
“Hehe~ Now it’s my turn to tell you about how awesome my build is~!”
Her eyes narrowed with a glint within them as her luscious red lips curled into a seductive grin.
“And how suuuuuuper sexy it is too~”
With a wink, Aika spread open her black-feathered wings adorned with beautiful, shining platinum-white jewelries and black, obsidian gems that seemed to be glowing with crimson radiance from within.
Then, she enveloped Yuuji’s figure with them, “hugging” him like a mother bird would her young.
“I’m a succubus~! But, I also have two special advanced races called the Arche Demoness of Lust and True Primordial Demoness~!!!”
“Eh…? W-What?!”
Momonga raised from his seat and leaned in towards the table. When suddenly, the undead-exclusive automatic effect that forcibly calmed down all heightened or erratic emotions activated in an instant, immediately calming Momonga from his shock.
But even then, he was still surprised by Aika’s words…
“Oh~? Do you know of it, Momonga-san?”
Aika’s eyes widened slightly in surprise as she continued hugging Yuuji with her arms and wings.
“I… I’ve heard of the Arch Demoness of Lust class before, but only in rumors… it’s said to be the class of the Lord of Lust, one of the Lords of the Seven Deadly Sins and a World Enemy ranked boss. I… I can’t believe you have it.”
“I see~ Hehehe, I’m quite lucky huh~? It’s really powerful too~! It enhances all my psychic related abilities to the max~! I can essentially charm anyone except for those with World Items easily~ Well, not that I’ll need those spells to do it, right hubby~?”
Aika moved her eyebrows up and down, looking at her hubby seductively as she emphasized her beauty and charm, as well as the softness and size of her chest.
And Yuuji couldn’t help but smile and gave her a chaste kiss on her lips, something that she seemed to be yearning for ever since they arrived in this world.
“Yes yes. Or rather, you’ve become too beautiful that you’ll definitely cause chaos if you go out there. It’ll be hard for you to go out of Nazarick.”
“Hehe~ Don't worry~! Thanks to my special job class, I can change my appearance at will~”
“Oh, that’s right… That’s good.”
Yuuji finally recalled the ability Aika was referring to from the “memories” he had received from the group chat. With that skill, he doubted anyone from this new world would be able to see through her guise. Even with magic.
“I see… That makes sense. Although it was never confirmed, there have been speculations that the Lord of Lust could cause players to turn against each other, no matter their magic resistance…”
Once again, with how scarce and difficult to obtain information in Yggdrasil, especially on such a big boss enemy that, perhaps, no one had ever dared to challenge or even fine, Momonga could only gain information on such things from forums and hearsays.
He couldn’t even distinguish which were true and which were mere ramblings from a player’s own imagination.
But now, he could finally confirm one of the rumors to be true…
“What about the other race…? The True Primordial Demoness, was it?”
“That’s right~ It gives me immunity to any dark magic, high resistance to holy magic, pretty nice stats, and also a lot of powerful skills that I can cast several times a day~”
“T-That’s really amazing! I can’t believe such a powerful class exists… How could no one know about it…? Or was it a class you can only get after defeating a yet to be known World Enemy…?”
Momonga began muttering under his non-existent breath once more, a habit he always had since he was young whenever he entered a deep thought.
“Hm~ I’m not sure, but it pairs amazingly with my “Demon Princess”, “Harbinger of Depravity”, and “Empress of Evil” special job classes~”
Yuuji couldn't help but react to those job names and looked at his beloved girlfriend helplessly…
Although they were certainly powerful job classes, he couldn't help but wince at the… overly sinister and edgy sounding names.
Even in his “memories”, “Yuuji” would sometimes stop Aika from saying it since he’d get second-hand embarrassment from them.
But of course, Aika didn’t stop since she thought it was super cool.
“Ah, that’s right. I remember now. They were quite powerful. It helped us quite a bit with that one raid boss that could spawn a lot of minions at will.”
“Uhn~ Ulbert-san wanted to one-up me using the same spell, but mine was far more powerful than his thanks to the effect of the “Empress of Evil” class~”
“That class also helps us a lot when we fight against other players with holy affinities. You were the MVP when we fought the Divine Light guild.”
“Hehe~ Thank you, darling~”
Hearing their conversation, Momonga could not help but become speechless…
Demon Princess is an extremely rare job class on par with the Arch Demoness of Lust race class. It’s also an extremely terrifying class to go up against, or so he had heard.
But the “Harbinger of Depravity” and “Empress of Evil”... He never heard of them before.
“Such powerful job classes… Why have I not heard anything about them… There should’ve been at least one forum discussion about it, even if it’s filled with guesses and imaginations.”
If such a powerful job class were to exist, all of Yggdrasil would explode in excitement and every single player would immediately try to gather information on them.
Was it yet another job class that had yet to be discovered…? It… might be. But after more than a decade and millions of players all uncovering the mysteries within the vast world of Yggdrasil, Momonga found it hard that nothing, not even the name, was mentioned even once within the game…
“Hm~ This might be what the Group Chat meant by “Special” level 100 character build… Maybe, these classes don’t even exist in Yggdrasil.”
“...Perhaps.”
This was the other explanation Momonga had thought of, and one he was more inclined to believe. One that to him, who had spent years of his life gathering information and reading forums on the game, made more sense.
“I actually agree with Aika as well.”
Snapping out of his dazed thoughts, Momonga shifted his gaze towards the half-demon half-angel figure sitting within the embrace of the succubus.
And his eyes widened in realization…
Before, Momonga thought that Yuuji’s half-demon half-angel race was simply something he had never heard of before… But now, it might be possible that it didn’t exist in Yggdrasil altogether.
Only in the “memory” created by the Group Chat did it exist. But in reality…
“My race and my class… I think they’re simply too… “special”. I think it’s not even something from Yggdrasil, but from the Group Chat itself. And maybe… it’s a hint to the kind of being behind the Group Chat.”
--------------------------------X--------------------------------
With the guardians of the seventh, sixth, and fifth floors informed regarding Momonga’s order to gather in the Amphitheatre in an hour, Albedo appeared from the teleporter on the second floor of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick.
As the Guardian Overseer of Nazarick, she was naturally familiar with the catacombs and the burial chambers that filled the first to third floor of the underground tomb.
Thus, she immediately avoided the path leading to the Black Capsule, the residence of the Area Guardian, Kyouhukou.
As a fellow guardian and a servant to the Supreme Beings, she did not… dislike the Area Guardian. He was polite, open-minded, and kind towards his fellow denizens of Nazarick.
It’s just… at a psychological level, Albedo simply could not stand his… appearance, and that of his countless “children”.
The fact did gnaw at the Guardian Overseer’s conscience, but her disgust and innate aversion towards them still made her avoid his residence at all cause unless it was an order from a Supreme Being.
Thus, she instead took the path that would lead her towards the Derelict Rope Bridge.
*Clack* *Clack* *Clack* *Clack*
With measured, graceful steps, Albedo continued on her path.
Soon, she could see a wide ridge with a single bridge connecting the two sides at a distance.
The bridge was held up by ropes that looked like they were about to break. The boards below were rotten through and where some knots have come loose, the planks have fallen off, leaving nothing but empty space where they should have been. A void of darkness awaited all that accidentally fell onto those empty spaces, and with Albedo’s keen eyes, she could see countless corpses already piled up at the bottom of the ridge.
And on the other side, she could see the entrance door to the building with gauzy pink chiffon veils hanging from its ceiling; the Grave Vault of Adipocere, or Adipocere Chamber. In other words, the residence of the first, second, and third floor guardian Shalltear Bloodfallen; her destination.
The moment it came into sight, she could hear vague sounds of several women laughing and moaning lewdly, echoing throughout. And the closer she gets, the louder and more intense they become.
An erotic atmosphere began to fill her surroundings as well, caused by the ever increasing scent of women’s pheromone, sweat, and liquid.
Albedo halted for a moment as her eyes narrowed slightly.
As a succubus, she was not affected by such erotic atmosphere that could easily send any male and female lower lifeforms into heat. Even the erotic moans and enticing smell were not enough to bring out any sort of desire within her.
However… to be surrounded with such things, she was reminded once more of her own… imperfection.
As a succubus, a being that fed on lust and lifeforce extracted through sex, yet had never experienced any sexual relationship… she could only be described as either incomplete… or incompetent.
However… she was the Guardian Overseer of Nazarick. A position only second to the Supreme Beings. She was proud and confident in her position, her beauty, her strength, and her abilities.
As such, she would not simply give up her “virginity” to just anyone.
She would only give it to the “one” she was destined to be with, along with her heart, body, and soul.
However… she had not found her “one” yet. And busy as she was with her duties, she had no time to search for him. This was also something that she couldn’t delegate to anyone… as she needed to find her destined one on her own.
‘Aika-sama…’
In that moment, the figure of the Supreme Being with the same race as her, but had reached a peak beyond her imagination, flashed across her mind.
She was a being far more powerful, far more capable, and far more beautiful than she could ever be… It was like comparing the rest of the world to Nazarick.
But… Was it solely because she was a supreme being? Or was it because… she had found her “one”?
The figure of the greatest Supreme Being flashed across her mind… And this time, it stayed, as she began to reminisce of the past.
Aika-sama’s interaction with Yuuji-sama… She looked so beautiful and happy whenever they were together, even if they were in battle. Even during the great invasion.
She looked… complete.
‘Could I become even half as powerful, beautiful, and… happy as Her when I found my destined one…?’
The question continued to linger in her mind… She was a being filled, no, overflowing with lust and love. Yet, she had no one to pour all of them into. If she found her “one”... could she perhaps-
“Ahn~ Aah~ Nooo~”
The lewd moans of women from the Adipocere Chamber that had become clear and all encompassing upon her arrival at the doorsteps of the chamber snapped Albedo out of her daze.
She had crossed the Derelict Rope Bridge before she knew it…
Hearing the moans, her lips couldn’t help but twitch for a fraction of a second.
These lowly women… These vampire brides could wantonly shout out their inner desires without a care in the world. While she couldn’t…
Envy began to fill her heart… Yet at the same time, she wondered if she would turn into such a wanton woman, depraved of any semblance of elegance and grace, and turned into a simple slave to her own lust and her destined one once she found him…
Just… how amazing would it be…? How happy would she become? To finally become whole and complete.
…She truly wished she could find her “one” soon.
“Albedo-sama. Welcome. Is there anything I may be of assistance to?”
Just then, a pale white woman with crimson eyes and slightly pointed ears, dressed in a pure-white dress that barely covered her buxom breasts appeared before the entrance and bowed before the Guardian Overseer.
“I am searching for Shalltear, to convey a message from the Supreme Being Himself, Momonga-sama.”
“I understand. Please enter. I shall lead you to a room and call upon my mistress to notify her of your presence.”
Albedo nodded slightly before entering, a polite gesture someone of her position shouldn’t have needed to do towards a mere Vampire Bride, yet she still did as she was also a denizen of Nazarick.
Soon, she was led into one of the rooms within the Adipocere Chamber. The wanton, needy moans of women still echoing around her, and the scent of women’s pheromones, sweat, and liquid became the most intense it had ever been.
Yet, the moment she entered and the door closed behind her, all sounds and scent disappeared. Instead, a serene silence and a pleasant smell of roses filled the room.
She sat down on a beautifully carved chair of marble and gold with a crimson-red cushion. Before her was a small, white, marble table and another identical chair opposite of hers.
Soon, a vampire bride, a different one from the one who welcomed her, knocked and entered upon being given permission with a tray of ceramic tea cups and tea pot in her hands.
She placed one of the cups before Albedo, and the other before the empty chair. Then, she poured into them a bright red fluid that immediately filled the room with the scent of tea.
She then placed the teapot at the center of the table, bowed deeply to the Guardian Overseer, and left.
Albedo picked up her cup of tea, smelled it, and took a sip.
The perfectly warm liquid that tasted like rose went down her throat and into her stomach. The heat warmed her entire body, like a warm, soft blanket or a fraction of what it must feel like to be within the embrace of her destined one, giving her a sense of comfort, relief, and happiness.
It was a cup of tea suited for the denizens of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick.
Just then, a knock came at the door once more. But this time, it opened before Albedo gave her permission, and a familiar figure of her fellow Floor Guardian appeared from behind it.
She looked to be around 14 years old or younger, with an innocent, youthful appearance that combined the qualities of cuteness and elegant beauty into a single whole. In contrast, her breasts bulged proudly forward in a decidedly unchildlike manner.
Her skin was as pale as wax, and her looks could only be described as stunningly beautiful. Her long silver hair was tied into a ponytail that flowed down from one side of her head, exposing her cute, youthful, innocent face that contrasted the seductive look of delight within her deep red pupils.
She adorned a black ball gown which looked soft to the touch. Her skirt was puffed up into a voluminous bell shape, and on top of that was a bolero edged with frills, lace, and ribbons, as well as a pair of long silk gloves, altogether covering up most of her fair, wax white skin.
“Oh my~ What a pleasant surprise~ To what do I owe the honor of meeting the Guardian Overseer of Nazarick.”
Her eyes narrowed as her lips curled into a mischievous, playful grin, similar to that of a teasing child. She approached the Guardian Overseer with elegant, graceful steps before sitting down on the chair pulled by her Vampire Bride attendant opposite of Albedo.
And in response to her teasing, Albedo returned a soft, gentle smile that reached her eyes as she turned towards her fellow Floor Guardian.
“I’ve come to deliver an order from Momonga-sama to gather all Floor Guardians except for the guardians of the fourth floor and seventh floor in the Amphitheatre in one hour.”
“Oh? Is that so? I have just finished ordering my minions to heightened the defenses of the first through third floor to the highest level. Does it relate to that order?”
“Perhaps. Momonga-sama simply told me that he has something he wishes to talk about with the Floor Guardians. Yuuji-sama, Aika-sama, and Lelouch-sama will be attending as well, so we should be prepare-”
“Really~?! Yuuji-sama will attend?!”
Albedo paused as she looked at Shalltear, whose eyes immediately shined excitedly, in shock.
“Yes…”
“Ah~! Then I must prepare immediately to appear at my best~! You, go prepare a bath for me, and make sure my dress is perfect! If there’s even a crease on it, I’ll kill you!”
“Yes, my mistress.”
The vampire bride accompanying her bowed and immediately left to do her task while Shalltear began fantasizing about her meeting with her beloved Yuuji-sama.
Her hands cupped her cheeks as she began to pant like a female dog in heat. And under her breath, Albedo could hear words of admiration, love, and lustful desires directed towards the greatest supreme being of Ainz Ooal Gown.
To be excited at the premise of meeting a supreme being, or even the promise to, was only a matter of course for any denizens of Nazarick and the rest of the world. Not to mention, they now had the chance to be in the presence of all four of the remaining Supreme Beings who were kind enough to not abandon them.
Albedo was not surprised at Shalltear’s excitement, as she too was quite excited for this meeting, despite the situation that seemed to be quite alarming given Momonga-sama’s order to raise Nazarick’s defense level to its highest.
But what shocked her was the fact that Shalltear was excited to meet Yuuji-sama instead of Momonga-sama…
Was her admiration greater towards the greatest supreme being than the leader of the supreme beings…?
No… From her reaction, her demeanor, and her words, her feelings for Yuuji-sama clearly went beyond that of mere admiration.
She was… madly in love with Him.
To Albedo’s knowledge, Shalltear possessed a necrophilia fetish, amongst many others. Logically, if Shalltear were to have a romantic interest, she would expect her to be more interested in Momonga-sama, whose aura alone carried the promise of death.
“Uhm… Shalltear?”
“No, not even a bed warmer. I’d be happy if I could even become his chai- Ah! Yes, what is it~?”
“...”
Once again, Albedo couldn’t help but look at her confusedly. She… didn’t expect Shalltear to hold such deep affection towards Yuuji-sama.
“I’d like to ask something… perhaps a bit personal, if that’s okay.”
“Oh~? What could it be?”
“From what I have seen and known about you, you’ve always had an inclination and interest towards… the dead. I know that just as you are created to be a powerful Floor Guardian in charge with the defense of three floors instead of one, you are also created to have the dead as one of your sexual preferences.
That said… I would like to ask why you hold such deep affections towards Yuuji-sama instead of Momonga-sama, who epitomizes the very concept you should love?”
There was a moment of pause as silence filled the room with the two floor guardians staring at each other; one with a curious gaze and one with a surprised look.
Then, a look of understanding came upon the pale-skinned little beauty when she recalled the reason why Albedo could not have known about the reason behind her deep love towards Yuuji-sama. After all, not even the supreme beings, aside from her own creator, His sister, and two others, knew of this.
“I naturally hold great admiration towards Momonga-sama, Albedo. After all, he was the master of death. The supreme being who had claimed death and life as his own. However… My creator, Peroroncino-sama, and His sister, Bukubukuchagama-sama, were close friends of Yuuji-sama, as well as Aika-sama.”
Shalltear took a sip of her tea, a gesture she simply did so her guest, friend, and comrade did not have to drink alone, even though eating, drinking, and sleeping were unnecessary for an undead like her.
A gesture Albedo understood and appreciated.
“Yuuji-sama had taken care of them greatly, and would always be there for them whenever they needed Him.
Thus, when Peroroncino made me, he also made a wish out of His immense feeling of gratitude, admiration, and brotherhood for Yuuji-sama. That she would admire Him like a little sister with a massive brother complex would her dear brother. Love Him like a loving wife would her husband. Yearn for Him like a cum-dumpster slut onahole would her master. And be his sword.
Thus, while I do admire the other Supreme Beings, including Yuuji-sama’s wife Aika-sama, and Momonga-sama, I am made to be His and Him alone.”
Shalltear’s eyes were filled with great happiness, affection, and pure, intense, lustful desire as she spoke of how she and these feelings came to be.
“At this moment, Yuuji-sama himself might not know of this, as Peroroncino-sama intended this feelings of mind to be a surprise for him. That is why, I am absolutely excited to meet with Yuuji-sama! And now, perhaps I could tell him everything, be what my creator wanted me to be at last, and love Him with my whole heart, body, and soul~!”
Albedo sat on her seat in silence… shocked.
And soon, her shock turned into envy. She did not expect for Shalltear to have found her “one”... Her “Destined One”.
And look how beautiful she was. How brightly she was shining.
Like a flower at full bloom. Even Albedo had to admit Shalltear was beautiful… more beautiful than her at this moment.
All because she had found her “one”. While she… She was still lost.
Incomplete.
Just then, Albedo snapped out of her daze and self pity as a familiar voice resounded within her mind from a [Message] spell.
