Ghost Ship of Katze Plains (part 2): 91-104/100

"Yes. At the moment there are no other Undead Ships sailing on land other than you guys. In other words you are valuable just by being here and there is currently no reason for us to give you this special opportunity." In the end, it all comes down to wanting it because it's rare. "I didn't understand why Ainz-sama who is an overwhelmingly powerful person needed us, but it's like this isn't it? Strength alone can be easily replaced, but uniqueness and rarity makes us irreplaceable." That's a nice way of putting it. In the future, I would like to use this line, perhaps in a different form. Ainz nodded as he wrote it down in his memory pad. (word play on memo pad and memory) "That's right. Of course, it may be rare here and common in other places, but we can think about it again when the time comes." "...if we are valuable just by being here, and irreplaceable, will we end up being displayed somewhere?" "No, I won't

"It was blown away?!" Despite the overwhelming difference in physique, Ainz's blow caused the crab to stumble backward, causing it to lose its balance.  "What is that? Isn't he a spell caster?" I couldn't help but ask the living. "Ainz-sama is a magic caster, you can tell just by looking at him. Are you so incompetent that you can't even see that?" I resisted the urge to yell, "I'm asking because I don't see it and I don't understand". The response from the living was brief and even exasperated. In other words, there is no hint of deception. I felt a chill down my spine.  "Is that... normal in the outside world?" "That's the most unbelievable thing I've ever heard... Yes, it's just nonsense. That can't be true. That person is a supreme being, the king who rules everything in this world. His intelligence, dignity, and strength is unmatched." "I see. He is an overwhelmingly strong

Ainz shook his head. "That's not my intention." I don't have the intention of using my power to keep this ghost ship under my control for long. I don't fully understand it, but the undead on this ship has a lot of physical power. However, everything else feels a bit iffy. It isn't powerful enough to use my abilities (undead domination) to keep them, so I should use other means to control the undead on this ship. In this case, the Undead Captain is key.  "Are you not using <lightning> (雷撃) because it will damage the ship? Now that your useless efforts are over, is it okay? Let's make a deal. If you accept it, I'll give you back this ghost ship." "You're giving it back because you're bored with their body? Damn it!" "No way. I'm being serious, so listen carefully. Let's destroy them already, okay?" Ainz continued ignoring the nonsense of Captain Undead was muttering.  "As you know, I... hmmm. As I&

Even though it was confirmed that we were an enemy once the skeletons were destroyed, it still spoke to use, most likely to buy some time until it was ready to do something else. Even if we assume that their wife is someone of the same or slightly higher rank, I don't think there is anything that would put Narberal or me in danger. In that case, I should conclude that it would be more beneficial to help buy the other person some time.  "Are you the undead in charge of this ship, or rather the Captain?" As if recognizing Ainz for the first time, the Elder Lich's sword moved. It was clear that it had caught Ainz's eye and the movement stopped.  "Oh!", Ainz sighed. That's pretty clever. He starts the conversation and then stays silent. It's certainly a good way to buy time. "How Rude, for a low-ranking undead to refuse Ainz-sama's question." (nabe) "Nabe, be quite." (ainz) "excuse me." (nabe) He could sense Narberal

  ` = internal monologue " = external dialogue "" = magical dialogue (messsage) ""Ainz-sama, I found a crab."" ""...Crab?"" As Ainz heard those words, an image of a bright red crab appeared in his mind. Yggdrasil had crab-shaped monsters, but... ""Is it a moonlit night? Or maybe near the sea or beach?"" ""No sorry, it's just plains"" I didn't know what he was apologizing for, but the fact that Crab was on the plains was more important. Perhaps Ainz simply didn't know about how crab ecosystems worked. However, even in Yggdrasil they only appeared near places of water like swamps and oceans. I don't remember them ever appearing on land.  No, Ainz shook his head inwardly. The crabs are from the Elder Lich's perspective, so there is no guarantee they are actually crabs. The Skeletal Dragon is a good example. Although it bears the name of a dragon, it only resembles a dragon in

It may be more efficient to use an Undead with greater power. However, there are several benefits to using Elder Lichs.  1st, Ainz can create more if they are destroyed. 2nd, they won't be attacked by unintelligent undead and less likely to be attacked by other undead. 3rd, they appear here naturally, so they are less likely to be connected to the Sorcerer Kingdom. 4th, they can easily move around with <Fly>. 5th, they are considered strong in this world, so they are capable of fighting and can be used to bait unknown third parties. Number 3 is the most important. If strong undead were brought from Nazarick and unlikely found in Katze Plains, any powerful being would be on guard. If you had the choice between being wary of or being looked down on, Ainz would choose the latter.  Ainz uses magic to create armor and weapons to return as Momon. Next, he holds a staff in his hand that resembles a skull with a spine attached to it. The Elder Liches borrowed Data Crystals from Ainz

"I see..." Their opinions were quite divided. "Well, unfortunately, this is where we have to say goodbye, so let's see you off." After saying that, Ainz thought, he had made a slight mistake. I said that in a hurry as I was eager to see them off and secure this place. There is no where they would be happy about being sent off in a rush. 'You're in the way, go home now.' If these feelings were to become apparent, the hero Momon might be seen as an arrogant and selfish person who uses his status as an Adamantite-class adventurer to show his superiority. There is no need to be too sympathetic to their feelings, but he needs to avoid damaging his reputation as a hero. 'Human relationships are very troublesome.' Suzuki Satoru, a working man who remains in the Ainz Ooal Gown company, was grumbling. A superior person might be able to ignore all of this and get by, but for someone like Suzuki Satoru whose abilities are below those of the average pers
