fics I read

People always told me that there would be a bright light to go towards, or that my life would flash before my eyes, turns out that people are full of shit.

I honestly think that I don't deserve to die, I mean yes I cheated on my girlfriend... with her little sister. But she came onto me, and Id had a bit to drink, and they look almost identical so I think my beloved girlfriend overreacted slightly, I mean really was the knife really necessary? I really don't think I was in the wrong.

And yes I blackmailed a teacher so I could get through my course without doing any actual work but really if he didn't want to get blackmailed why did he stick his dick in a 16 year old? He's the villain here, not me. Honestly he should have been grateful for the lesson on consequences. OK fine maybe blackmailing the girl as well was somewhat wrong but I was young, the temptation was just too much for an innocent guy like me.

So yes I might not be a saint but I really don't think I deserved to get murdered at the age of 19, still as far as afterlives go I suppose it could be worse, though floating though a void is probably going get old fast.

Congratulations! You have completed the tutorial, and can now start the main game!

[Next]

...What? Apparently the void drove me insane faster than expected, cant think of any other reason a red floating text box would be hovering in front of my face. I could ignore it but really what else do I have do here? The box feels almost like glass but I doubt I could break it despite how thin it seems to be, time to go hit next I suppose.

Your actions in the tutorial will affect your starting skills and the amount of stat points you will be able to allocate in character creation!

Those last two are sound worse than they are, also screw you floaty box I should have way more achievements than that, OK yes I spent most of my time hiding in my room playing games and watching anime but I'm sure I've done was more things than that.

I just cant remember them at the moment, that's all.

If I had to guess it was the Voyeurism that gave me [Pervert] Achievement, but really who hasn't wanted to spy on girls changing? OK the spy cams I hid may have been overkill, but any guy would have if given the chance!

Moving on it looks like character creation is next, [Enter Name]? That's easy enough my name is... wait what's my name again? How have I forgotten my name? And why aren't I more worried about it?

[Hint]

Once the tutorial is complete the game removes unnecessary data!

[Hint]

A starter skill is preventing the negative status [Panicked]!

Unnecessary data? That's my life you stupid box! I can remember plenty, but everything related to names andplaces is gone. I don't know whether I should be happy or worried about some skill affecting my head, better just move on and pick new name, but I've always sucked at naming characters

Name : Shiro

Yes fine, I admit it. I'm a weeb, and white really isn't the most original name but I cant think of anything else so lets just move on.

Seriously? Everything starts at 1? Fine. Since there's MP I can assume I'll get magic so looking at this from a RPG perspective I should go for a Mage build to put those boosts to use. Also Neutral Evil? Always though I was more of a lawful neutral, but I can see your point floaty box.

That's a bit better, though if there isn't magic I'm going to feel like a complete fool, at least lucks always useful even if I have no way of knowing if these are even high, at least until I see someone else character sheet.

There's a portrait of me on these screen, naked. Not really what I wanted to see.

Do you wish to change your appearance?

[Yes] [No]

Hmm, I don't really see the point, even though I'm pretty averageas far as looks go, Short black hair, skinny build, the kind of face you couldn't pick out of a crowd if I'm being honest. My only noteworthy feature is my steel grey eyes, and they aren't exactly impressive, still I think its better to be able to blend in than to stand out to much so I'll stick with them.

Please select a difficulty

[Easy] [Normal] [Hard] [Nightmare]

Easy. I thought I was enjoying an easy life before and I ended up with a knife in my throat, I don't see why I should make things hard if I can just cruise by enjoying the Easy life.

Do you wish to Enable adult content?

[Yes] [No]

Yes. Obviously. Keep your PG-13 shit away from me.

Please choose a starting hub

[City Apartment] [Hunting Lodge] [Island Hideaway]

Hub world? I don't quite understand but I'll choose the Apartment, Cities are convenient, so it seems like its the easier start.

Are you ready to start the Game?

Warning once started the setting cannot be changed!

[Yes] [No]

I think so. I cant see anything I'd want to change so I'll just click yes.

Confirmed, Please enjoy the Game!

A bright flash blinded me, and once my vision cleared I was standing in the middle of a living room, it doesn't look high class, but it isn't run down either, nice and average. I can live with this. Looks like its a single bedroom apartment, 1 bathroom, a small kitchen and the living room, not bad.

As I'm exploring the apartment I cant help but notice something, its quiet. Far too quiet for a city. I head out of the front door and notice that there is only 1 door, this building has no other apartments, I head downstairs to see an empty receptionist area, and I do mean completely empty, apart from some basic furniture there's nothing else here. No paperwork or stationary on the desk, everything looks brand new. There's a single key on a hook on the wall, so I take it and put it in my pocket.

[Shiros Apartment Key] added to inventory

Skill added [Lock]

Skill added [Unlock]

[Hint]

The Game can be controlled through voice commands, try saying "Inventory" or "Character"!

More boxes, as I feel around in my pocket I notice the keys have vanished. Why does it always feel like the boxes are mocking me? Oh well might as well try.

"Inventory" the moment I say it a new pop up shows up, this ones a list of options Weapons, Gear, Consumables, Books, Misc and Key chain, all but key chain are greyed out, I tap key chain, unsurprisingly it just has a single line showing the key I put in, I can't remove it from my inventory and there doesn't seem to be any other options so I'll just move on.

"Character" this brings up my character sheet I set up earlier, but now there are a few new options available. Skills, Classes, Titles, Achievements, Perks and Store. Perks and Store are both greyed out at the moment so I'll go for Skills first I guess.

Skills

[Gamers Mind] (Passive) LVL MAX

Allows the user to calmly and logically think things through

Allows peaceful state of mind

Immunity to psychological status effects

That explains a lot. Really I should be having a breakdown right now but I only really feel curiosity.

[Gamers Body] (Passive) LVL MAX

Grants a body that allows for the user to live real life like a game

I'm not too sure what that means yet, guess that's for me to discover as I 'play the game'.

[Lock] (Active) LVL 1/30 (0/100)

10 MP to use

Allows the user to lock doors they possess the key for

At level 10 doors locked will be Unpickable

At level 20 doors locked will be Unbreakable

At level 30 keys can be created for any door, regardless of ownership

That seems useful, though its a bit overpowered isn't it? If I max it I can just lock anyone's door and permanently seal them. Could be fun, it'd really confuse people at the very least.

[Unlock] (Active) LVL MAX

10 MP to use

Allows the user to unlock doors they possess the key for

Huh. No extra abilities? I'm kinda disappointed, I was expecting it to be able to unlock anything after [Lock], I wonder if there's a lockpicking skill? Moving on.

[Blackmail] (Active) LVL 14/50 (200/1400)

Allows the user to use leverage to force other to obey them. Requires leverage on the victim. Larger orders will require greater leverage

At level 10 weak willed targets will be far more likely to obey

At level 25 less leverage will be required to make targets obey

At level 50 all targets will be far more likely to obey

Level 14? I guess I did blackmail 2 people for almost a year. I could pretend that I'll never use this but honestly? I love having power over people like that and I've never had much restraint.

[Skill Creation] (Active) LVL MAX

Allows the user to create their own skills, as long as they have the stats required

Skills can be created manually or automatically through repeated actions

To active just think 'Skill Creation' then the name for your new skill, the details will be taken from your mind automatically

That... actually seems like the most useful skill of them all, I definitely need to experiment with this.

Quest Started!

[Learning the Ropes, Skill Crafting]

Objective : Create a new skill

Reward : A unique skill Book, 100 credits, 1000 exp

[Hint]

Unique skills are skills that cannot be created by [Skill Creation], earn them through

quests or other means!

[Hint]

Starting your very first quest has added the quest log feature, just say "Quest Log" to check out your quests!

Well that's new, but I won't turn down free experience, exactly enough to get my first level, since I'm trying a mage build I think I'll go for an old favourite. 'Skill Creation, Magic Missile'.

Skill added [Magic Missile]

[Magic Missile] (Active) LVL 1/100 (0/100)

100 MP to cast

Sends a magic missile at your target dealing (10 + INT) magic damage

A additional missile will be added every 10 levels

MP Cost will be reduced by 5 every 5 levels

At level 10 missiles will track targets

At level 50 missiles will have a 5% chance per missile to inflict [Stun] on targets

At level 100 missiles will have a 5% chance per missile to inflict [Magic Weakness] on targets, increasing magic damage by 50%

That went well, better than expected to be honest. The cost is pretty high since I can only cast it three times before I run out of MP but with my regen I can cast it once every 90 seconds and I should be able to increase my INT and WIS soon. Once its leveled it'll be very useful. I'll test it later, I don't want to damage my building.

Ignoring the last one (for now) I decide on [Game Nerd], magic missile has been in countless games so hopefully should count, I move onto the skill book, after some confusion I realise its been added to the books section of my inventory and take it out,

[ID Create Skill Book]

Grants the user the [ID Create] and [ID Escape] skills

I tap yes and the book glows for a moment before disappearing, as it does I feel new information being added to my brain, fortunately it's pretty painless.

Quest Added

[Dungeon Diving for Beginners]

Objective : Defeat the Boss of the Easy Zombie Dungeon

Reward : ?, 500 credits, 5000 exp

Interesting, very interesting. But I don't really want to add a zombie horde to my apartment building, so I suppose it's time to head out of the building. As I leave the front door I quickly notice that the streets are completely empty, and the surrounding buildings seem unused, I seem to be in a residential area with rows of houses around my apartment complex. Trying the next houses front door reveals that its unlocked but as I explore the house I realise its clearly never been lived in, it's furnished but everything is perfect, too perfect. There's none of the wear and tear furniture gets from everyday use. So I leave and keep going down the street.

As I'm walking I hit a barrier, literally. At the end of the street is a invisible wall preventing me from going any further, After dismissing the message that I had taking -1 HP Damage I run to the other end of the street reveals the same. I can't climb over the fences behind the houses either.

[Hint]

While the hub world starts small, it can be upgraded in the store once it is unlocked!

Nice to know, but pretty useless at the moment. Since I can't leave I guess here will have to do.

"[ID Create, Zombies]"

Please choose a difficulty for this dungeon

[Easy] [Normal] [Hard] [Nightmare]

Normal, Hard and Nightmare are greyed out so I select Easy, The moment I do the sky goes dark. The only illumination is from the full moon, which would be great if it wasn't a pale red. I can already hear moaning and movement from the street, luckily I'm still in a back garden so I crouch and slowly sneak around the house to the front garden, hiding behind the front fence I glance over to see a figure stumbling down the street, it seems to be alone.

Skill added [Sneak]

[Sneak] (Active) LVL 1/100 (0/100)

Allows the user to stay undetected, more effective in dark environments or behind cover

At level 25 users movement will become silent

At level 50 user will have all scents removed while sneaking

At level 75 user will become immune to hostile searching skills

At level 100 user will gain the ability to blend into shadows, becoming invisible

I dismiss the notification for now, I really don't have the time to be messing with menus right now.

As it gets closer to my hiding spot I can see that it looks female, her skin looks pale and sickly, her clothes torn and blood stained. She has blood stains around her mouth and red eyes that almost glow. I think I could beat her with my [Magic Missile] skill. As I'm focusing on her a new notification appears.

Skill added [Observe]

[Observe] (Active) LVL 1/100 (0/100)

Provides information on target

At level 25 targets perks and emotional state will be revealed

At level 50 targets background and skills will be revealed

At level 100 targets thoughts about the user and the targets secrets will be revealed (when applicable)

[Female Zombie] LVL 1

HP – 100

SP – 100

Primary stat – Strength

That's useful, extremely so once its leveled. If she only has 100 HP I can kill her easy enough it would just take 3 [Magic Missiles]. Doable but it would almost empty my MP so I better not miss. I hide back behind the fence and wait for her to pass and slowly leave the garden getting behind her. I hold my hands apart and create my first [Magic Missile] between them, its smaller than I expected, barely the size of a baseball. It's a glowing purple orb, it looks pretty cool but the glow reveals my presence to my target. She turns and starts to shamble towards me, but she's very slow. I could outpace her with a fast walk.

As I thrust my hands forward my [Magic Missile] shoots forward and hits her in the chest knocking her over, I quickly prepare another hitting her while she's down. And then one final one to finish her off. I feel pretty drained with my MP so low but I've won my first battle. I'm glad I have [Gamers Mind] because I'd definitely be freaking out over the corpse otherwise. She's missing parts of her chest from where my [Magic Missiles] hit her, I can see her broken ribs and damaged organs. It's pretty gruesome, honestly it's a shame though, she's actually pretty cute if you look past the blood and gore.

Battle Won!

EXP – 50

Drops – Rotten Flesh

The exp is OK but I really could have done without rotten flesh in my inventory, apparently it's a crafting material but I have no idea what I'd make with it. As I wait for my MP to regen I hear more moaning behind me, looking back I can see 6 more zombies shambling towards me, a quick observe reveals that they are all level 1. my MP is still recovering so I back away. They're still slow so there's no real threat as long as I keep moving. Thinking quickly I decide to create a new skill. I need something that can hit multiple targets, as a mage there's really only one choice.

'Skill Creation, Chain Lightning'

Skill Creation Failed

50 INT Required

...shit. Fine I can try more.

'Skill Creation, Fireball'

Skill added [Fireball]

[Fireball] (Active) LVL 1/100 (0/100)

250 MP to cast

Sends a fireball at target dealing (50+INT) Fire Damage, deals (25+(INT/2) to any targets within a 3 meter radius

Damage will be increased by 10 every 10 levels

MP cost will be reduced by 5 every 5 levels

At level 30 fireball will have a 25% chance to inflict [Burning], dealing 10 fire damage every 5 seconds

At level 60 fireball will no longer have friendly fire

At level 100 fireball will have a 5% chance to incinerate targets, killing them instantly (Does not effect boss characters or targets with a 10 level advantage over the user)

It's no chain lightning but it'll do, my MP has recovered enough to use my new spell so I create the [Fireball] in between my hands and throw it at the group, sending them flying back, it wasn't quite enough to kill the one it hit but it certainly bought me some time, which I'll need since my MP is practically empty. I hop a fence and run to one of the houses back gardens while they are still down. Jumping over a few more fences I find a bush to hide in before any of them manage to follow me. I can hear them moving into the first garden now that they've recovered from being thrown around. I stay in the bush for a while longer as they stumble around separating and wandering off to search for me. After a couple of minutes my MP is back to full so I leave my spot and return to the main street they 6 have spread around so I launch a [Magic Missile] at the closest knocking him over, then another to finish him.

Ignoring a notification that [Magic Missile] had leveled up I return to the back garden and wait for the rest to arrive, as my MP regens. As they start to funnel into the garden I prepare another [Fireball] and wait for them all to arrive and throw it at them.

Critical Hit! X2 Damage

[Hint]

Critical Hit chance is decided by your luck stat and the area hit, so make sure not to neglect it!

The group get blown apart by the explosion limbs flying away as the zombies are destroyed. I've seen countless characters use Fire magic before but it never felt quite as good as this. The heat makes me sweat and my heart has never beaten so fast, it's a wonderful feeling. Is this what pyromaniacs feel? If so then I completely understand why they'd risk their health and freedom for it. Magic is truly amazing. I don't even mind the smell of burnt flesh, it isn't pleasant but if a bad smell is the price of destroying my enemies with fire and explosions then it's a price I will gleefully pay.

Perk Gained [Novice Pyromancer]

Perk Menu Unlocked in the Character Sheet

Battle Won!

EXP – 300

Drops – Rotten Flesh x5

I check the messages as I calm myself. It's nice to have another feature unlocked and passive increases are always welcome. Once I've calmed down enough I realise that I'm still not done, the quest objective was to defeat a boss but I haven't seen anything like that yet. So I had back to the street after letting my MP Regen and switching my class to [Novice Mage]. In the middle of the street there's a single zombie but unlike the others this one is dressed differently, looking like he's just stepped out of a museum clad in Roman armour. I duck behind a fence and peer over so I use [Observe] on him.

[Zombie Warrior] LVL 5 {Boss}

HP – 250

SP – 200

Primary stat – Endurance

This should be doable, 3 [Magic Missiles] will deal around 120 damage with my new class, if I ambush him then retreat while he's knocked down I should be fine. I create my missile and launch it at the zombies back, the orb streaks through the air smashing into its back, it stumbles forward but doesn't fall so I follow up with another [Magic Missile]. The zombie hadn't recovered yet so the second shot knocks him to the ground, my third shot hits him directly in the face, Blasting away his skin and revealing the skull underneath.

Critical Hit! X2 Damage

Another observe shows that the boss is down to just under 100 HP but he is rising up quickly, far faster than the regular zombies. He gets back on his feet and starts running down the street. He isn't that fast, its more of a jog than a run but he's far faster than the shambling zombies I beat before. I retreat back into another garden hopping fences as I move from garden to garden. I can outpace him, as he attempts to follow. He clearly isn't very smart as he fails to get over the fences properly, falling over as he tries to climb them. My MP recovers while I run so I prepare another [Magic Missile] and send it at him as he blunders over a fence, knocking him back. With his health down so low it's the perfect time for another [Fireball].

Creating my little ball of destruction I admire its glow for a moment while the zombie tries to get over the fence again before launching it at him. I watch with glee as it connects melting his skin and blasting him across the garden. I get a warm fuzzy feeling as I look upon the devastation my spell caused, if this is what a level 2 mage can do I can't wait for the higher levels.

Chapter 2 : Gathering Power (and waifus)

This... changes a lot, I need to think carefully about this since it seems like I'll be stuck in whichever world I choose. May as well start at the top of the list.

Pokémon. Potentially great, getting Pokémon to fight my battles for me sounds wonderful. At least while I'm in that world, if I tried to take them with me to any other world they'd stand out entirely too much. Might even be recognisable if the Pokémon games exist in other worlds, having to explain why I have a pet Venusaur (which is the best 1st gen starter, charizard is overrated) would attract way too much attention, having people find out I can travel between worlds would be far worse, I don't need that kind of scrutiny until I'm so strong it won't matter.

Persona. Also could work, summoning personas to do my fighting for me would be nice, but any damage they take effects the summoner (at least I think that's how it works), but the major downside is the final boss. I'd really rather not have to battle Izanami. Picking fights with literal gods is not my idea of good time, not unless I'm certain I could win, so it'll have to wait for some other time. I definitely want to go there though, best girl Rise is in there.

Overlord. Definitely interesting. In the canon Overlord Momonga is a god amongst mortals, the strongest that world has to offer can barely handle the weakest Nazarick has. When I read the light novels my biggest problem was how wimpy Momonga usually acted. Even when Nazarick started to take it's rightful place, ruling over the weaker kingdoms it was only because Demiurge misunderstood a single sentence from Momonga. If I can take his place, and his powers I'd be in a far more secure position. Plus gaining Nazarick and it's inhabitants for myself would be perfect, I'd never need to fight my own battles again with Albedo as a follower. The more I think about this the more appealing it seems. Albedo, Shalltear, Aura, the Battle Maids, I want them all. With a harem of super-powered waifus I'd be unstoppable. It definitely seems like the obvious choice.

Quest Added

[Birth of the Harem Emperor, part 1]

Objective : Build a Harem of 3 people

Reward : Harem Lord Perk, 25+ CHA, part 2 unlocked

Take that Issei, who would want to be a king when you can be an Emperor, I never did like Issei, I don't even really know why I just found him annoying, why does that idiot deserve a harem. He doesn't, in fact I should take them from him if I ever go to the DxD world. It should be easy enough to crush him before he becomes a devil.

Quest Added

[The King is Dead, Long live the Emperor]

Objective : Prevent Issei Hyoudou from gaining a Harem by any means necessary

Reward : Wife Stealer Perk, Dream Crusher Perk

Huh. I wish I could preview perks, but still with this it's guaranteed, I hate leaving quests incomplete so I guess I have to steal Isseis girls for myself, a terrible shame.

High School DxD. Not yet, I'm not going to a world with literal gods, devils and angels until I have far more power than I do now. As much as I want to get started on my new quest I'm not ready, DxD may seem like a Harem Comedy but that world's scary, there are way too many people in that place that could insta-kill me. I'm coming for your girls Issei, just not yet.

Mass Effect. Tempting, but mostly because I want a spaceship and alien waifus. I can wait, besides the girl I want most from mass effect isn't in the first game so I'd have to stick around for ages to get her, but I will be going there one day, Mirandas perfect ass is waiting for me (even if I don't particularly like her personality). Still patience is a virtue apparently, so I'll put this on hold.

Overwatch. Again very tempting, but probably for the wrong reasons. I should choose the first world carefully after considering the pros and cons, not just because I want to fuck Tracer (though how I'd pull that off with her being a lesbian I'm not too sure, something to think about). All the girls there are hot (even Zaryas got that sexy amazon vibe) but I need power quickly. Though getting the powers of Overwatch heroes would be great and since it seems like that world works like the game death is likely not a problem, and 150 victories sounds like a lot but it probably wouldn't be that hard, just time consuming. Maybe another time.

Star Wars. I loved the Old Republic mmo. I put hundreds of hours into it, even if I never actually did a light side character. Its extremely tempting, becoming a Sith Lord would be amazing, I'd even get a slave Twi'lek after I completed the starter world, though Vette is extremely disobedient so getting her to actually obey would be a problem. In the game she can't actually betray you no matter how much a dick you are to her but there's no guarantee that would remain true in that world. I'd need some way to keep her loyal, which is a problem since she's a light side companion and I have no intention of playing the heroic light side type.

Quest Added

[Rise of the Slave Master]

Objective : Acquire and train a slave

Reward : [Enslave] Skill, Slave Master Perk

That'll work, this game might actually be too easy with the free stuff it keeps throwing at me. There's no requirement on who the slave should be so I can just grab someone weak to complete this, Vette still seems like she'd be a massive pain to train so I' ll put that on hold for now. Also I really don't want to have to fight Valkorion, the guy eats planets. Even though it says I only have to complete the character story if I want to do the Sith Warrior then I'd have to interact with him eventually and I don't want an immortal body snatching monster to have any reason to be paying attention to me. Would [Gamers Mind] protect me from possession? I have no idea and I'm not in a rush to find out.

Therefore the obvious choice is Overlord, where I can be a stupidly powerful mage in my fancy tomb with an army of ridiculously powerful minions. It's a great starting place and if I can take the Floor Guardians to other worlds with me I'll be able to easily win most battles with the likes of Albedo and Sebas protecting me.

The moment I select Overlord I collapse to my knees, my head feels like its on fire as countless Spells are forced into my mind. Momonga might have been a bit wimpy personality wise but I can't deny that he's clearly a genius when it comes to magic. Hundreds of Skill pop ups fill my vision as I suddenly remember a small bit of trivia about Momonga, he had a special ability called Dark Wisdom, allowing him to learn up to 718 spell. 718 spells which were currently being forced into my head. This is a great thing, truly it is, but it's rather hard to see it that way when my head feels like it's about to explode.

After what seemed like an eternity the notifications and the pain both disappeared leaving only 1 single pop up.

Skill Set Added

[Momonga the Overlord]

Convenient. It would have taken entirely too long to close them all one by one, checking my skills list there are now 2 categories Shiro the Gamer and Momonga the Overlord. Clicking Momonga the list expands massively, I doubt I'll ever use even a quarter to these spells quickly scanning the list for my favourite Overlord spell it doesn't take long to find it.

[Grasp Heart] (Active) LVL MAX

500 MP to use

9th tier spell, Crushes the targets heart causing instant death, if resisted stuns target instead

It's beautiful. Also currently uncastable. I really need to get my level up. Badly.

Now that my head it's burning I notice that the new door has opened showing the dark purple void behind it, I had kinda hoped I was done with voids but oh well, my new world awaits. Stepping though the door a new pop up appears.

Please Select Form

[Human] [Skeleton]

As much as I love Momongas badass skeleton appearance there are some things that I'm just not willing to lose...

Especially if I want to complete the Harem Emperor quest then I'm going to require that particular body part, so I quickly select human.

Once again my vision is filled with notifications, only this time they are far more welcome. The sight of so many Level Up pop ups is a glorious and unexpected thing.

You have leveled Up!

Hint

To lower the excessive amount of numbers experience meters have been changed to a percentage!

I knew Momonga was level 100, but I did not expect this. This game is broken, completely broken, what kind of poorly designed game lets you skip 96 levels just by starting the first world. It's completely nonsensical and broken. I love it. I was honestly preparing myself for months of grinding to get this far and it just gives it to me. Also 'Immortal Human' wonder what made that change? Was it my level hitting a certain threshold? I don't know but really does it matter? Immortality is never a curse, despite what those edgy characters would tell you.

After some thought I increase STR, END and DEX to 50 each and CHA and LCK to 75. I don't want to have a glaring weakness so increasing everything seems good. Then I put INT and WIS up to 100 each leaving me with 557 to go. I confirm my current stats while I think about where to put the rest of the points.

I'll forever deny that I spent the next 10 minutes laughing manically, fortunately there is no one else in the void but me. I had thought that 50 in a stat would be just slightly above average, but from the perks acquired it would seem that it's far better than that. And I still have hundreds of points to spend.

Dropping 25 more into CHA and LCK so I can see what their 100 perks are, I decide to split all 500 remaining points between INT and WIS, putting them both at 350. Honestly I should probably spread them out more but screw that I want to be a OP Mage dammit.

31K MP, adding the perks up in my head I realise I'm getting 90 MP per INT point + my 100 starting MP. I love this game, it's a easily exploitable mess and I wouldn't change a single thing about it.

Curious about the Gacha I go to the store now that it isn't greyed out, there are 3 options Buy, Sell and Gacha, ignoring buy and sell for now I tap Gacha and use my free spin.

[The Demon King's Ring]

Reflects all magic cast on the user

I recognise this, it's from How not to summon a demon lord. It's also ridiculously powerful. Quickly putting it on my finger I realise that my hands are far bigger than they were 5 minutes ago. It appears that my hopes of blending into the background will go unfulfilled, because I certainly wasn't this tall or muscled before, I don't know how I managed to miss growing and bulking up so much but I'm not complaining, I was always short for my age, a mere 5 feet 3 inches, but now I seem at least a foot and a half taller, I have finally escaped the manlet zone, who's short now you pricks! I wish I could go back to my first world just to laugh at the guys who made fun of my height, and then punch them through a wall.

Are you Ready to continue?

[Yes] [No]

I guess I'm done admiring myself for now. So I tap yes and once again my vision goes black, it's becoming a recurring thing at this point. Once it clears I can see a conference room, with a large white round table that I'm sat at. I recognise this, it's the first scene just after the slime leaves. So I must be in Nazarick just before it gets teleported to the new world. Further inspection shows that I'm wearing Momongas robes open at the chest revealing my muscled chest, normally I'd never wear something that showed off my chest, but then again normally I don't look like a Olympic athlete, so I'll roll with it. If you've got it flaunt it I guess.

Grabbing the golden staff floating on a pedestal and head out towards the throne room, I have some vague knowledge of the layout from Momonga so finding my way isn't too complicated. As I travel I try to recall what happens in season 1 so I can work out some kind of plan, not much happens in episode 1 I don't think, Momonga meets Hero Hero, Nazarick gets transported, Momonga gropes Albedo (can't blame the guy) and then there's the oath of loyalty scene. Nothing I need to worry about.

As I reach the throne room I see Sebas and the Combat Maids of Pleiades standing guard outside it, Sebas looks seriously cool, butlers usually do for some reason, still if I hadn't read the LN and watched the anime I would have no idea he was so powerful. The maids are beautiful, even Entoma even though I know her face is just a bug mask, still I need to make sure she doesn't lose to Evileye when that arc happens, it'd be a black mark on Nazarick to have one of my Maids lose to some vampire loli, I'll make sure she has some additional support when that event happens, If that event happens. Guess I should have them follow me so I can quickly send out Sebas to scout after we get transported.

"Follow." there's no point saying anything more now, they're just emotionless NPCs, it'd be a waste of words.

With them following me I head through the giant metal doors into the throne room. Right besides the throne, My Throne, is Albedo. She's even more beautiful than I expected and I'm suddenly glad Momongas robes are so loose, she was always my favourite. I always have loved the crazy yandere types, which with the benefit of hindsight would probably explain why I ended up dating a psychopath, you'd think that I would have learned from the experience and would want to avoid the crazy possessive types, but you'd be wrong.

"Stand By." sending the maids and Sebas off to the side I take a seat on my glorious throne, which is a power trip all by itself. It makes the fact that this is all mine feel so much more real. Albedo is smiling at me. My heart is beating way too fast, I am not some stuttering virgin, but Albedo is a work of art, from her long black silky hair (with those cute horns on either side of her head), to her entrancing yellow eyes, not to mention the sinfully sexy body wrapped in a tight white dress. I suddenly remember what else Momonga does in episode 1, quickly opening her settings and skipping through the ridiculously long log to the end I find what I'm looking for. 'By the way, on the inside she's a bitch'. There's something wrong with her creator, oh well I have the staff so I can change it however I want. 'She is deeply in love with Shiro, but doesn't mind sharing him'. Why worry about her being going psycho when I can just change her very settings to suit my needs. I wish I had enough time to alter all the NPCs settings but I couldn't even reach them all in time.

"Kneel." with a single word everyone in the room drops to their knees, again a complete power trip, the sight of these monstrously strong beings are kneeling before me is sending my ego up to entirely new heights. This feels right, like I was born to do this. My past life really was just some stupid tutorial setting me up for this. As I glance around I see the flags of each former guild member, Momonga would have seen this as nostalgic and sad, I do not. If I didn't think the guardians (their creations) would object I'd rip them down and burn them. They are relics of the past, I am Nazaricks future. At the very least I can be thankful they made this mighty tomb for me to rule over, and that they left all their powerful gear in the treasury.

Only seconds left till teleportation time, I close my eyes and wait for this world to truly begin. I feel a wave of powerful magic pass over me and smile, it's begun.

"Is there something wrong, Lord Shiro?" I'd recognise that voice anywhere, I don't even need to open my eyes to know Albedo is the one talking.

"You didn't feel it Albedo? Sebas. Nazarick has been moved to a new land by a powerful magic, step out of the tomb and confirm the surroundings around Nazarick." I can see the shocked look on their faces, except for Sebas who remains completely professional, he really is so cool.

"Understood, Lord Shiro." He even sounds badass, I'm kinda jealous. He leaves immediately to carry out my orders. So professional, I'm so happy [Gamers Mind] helps control my emotions or I'd be fanboying right now and that wouldn't leave the best impression on my new minions.

"Pleiades. Go to the ninth floor and guard it from any possible intruders." I already know that there won't be any intruders, at least not until we trick those greedy workers into coming here, but they don't know that so it's best to at least act like a leader would.

"As you wish, Lord Momonga." Yuri Alphas is just as professional as Sebas but she looks slightly worried, it makes sense since in the anime she didn't know that Nazarick had been moved at this point, but I want to seem all-knowing so revealing that early will make them think I'm wise. I do have a very high WIS stat after all.

Albedo hasn't stopped kneeling yet, strange. In the show she rises with the others, I remember that, taking a closer look at her she seems to be shaking slightly.

"What is wrong Albedo?" I ask, better to get to the bottom of this quickly.

"I'm sorry Lord Shiro, I've failed you, I'm suppose to be in charge of Nazaricks defences but I didn't even notice when we were caught in a spell!" Huh, she's crying. She never did that in the anime, isn't she a bit too sensitive?

"It's fine, Albedo. This spell is far beyond any of you, you are forgiven this time." I say in a regal tone, at least I think it's regal, maybe pretentious would be more appropriate. Maybe I should work on that like Momonga does? Nah too much effort. It seems to work though as Albedo stops blubbering and she has a slight blush on her cheeks as she rises.

"Lord Shiro, I failed my duties. Please punish me as you see fit." Maybe the guardians are too loyal, seriously how did Momonga ever convince himself that there was a chance they would betray him. Still I can't just say no, it didn't work for Shalltear and I doubt it'll work here. Damn it Momonga was groping her at this point and I'm stuck dealing with her fanatical loyalty, better fix this.

"Very well Albedo. You will be disciplined for your failure, but not now. Nazarick is in a state of emergency and we cannot afford to remove you from your position, even temporally." I'm going to ignore how much her blush deepened when I said 'disciplined' for now.

"Thank you Lord Shiro, what are my orders?" and like that she's back to being a professional, I should have her increase Nazaricks defence level, but screw that. If Momonga got to grope those massive tits then so do I.

"Come here."

"At once, Lord Shiro."

The moment the order leaves my lips she rushes in front of me, getting right in my face. Momonga was right she really does smell good.

"I'm going to touch you Albedo. I take it you have no objections?" like she could object after I messed around in her settings. But she doesn't need to know that.

"Of course not Lord Shiro, I live to serve you, just as all the beings Nazarick do." she sounds way too excited. Shouldn't it be the other way around, what girl would be so excited to be molested. Anime logic is the best.

This is it. The moment I have been waiting for since I saw overlord in the world list. Truly dying was the best thing I ever did.

As I reached out and grasp her impressively soft breasts over the top of her dress a thought occurs, this is why I got this power, not for anything as petty as adventure. The gamer power exists solely so I can build a harem of beautiful and powerful women. Albedos moaning distracts me from my deep musings so I get back to what I was doing rubbing my thumbs over her hard nipples. She might be enjoying this more than I am.

Albedo recruited into your Harem!

Wait already? I thought it'd be way more work than a quick grope. This'll be easier than I expected at this rate, I can't imagine Shalltear being any harder to recruit. Aura I'm not decided on, I know she's like 70 years old but she sure as hell doesn't look it. Then there's the village girl, she's a cute one, what was her name again? Emri? Enri? Yeah that sounds right, sorry alchemist dude but I don't like you enough to let you have her, with Sebas I like him enough to let him have his human lover, the guy deserves it.

There's the battle maids though I'm not sure how the logistics of that would work with Entoma and CZ Delta. Solution as well now that I think about it, since she's a literal slime. But Narberal, Lupusregina and Yuri should be fine, probably. Then that crazy chick Clementine, I'm sure that will end well for me, but having a pet psycho assassin would be useful, even if I have to train her first.

Who else is there? There's the redhead adventurer from the city, then there's the princess who's obsessed with that weak kid. Plus Blue Rose but they won't show up till much later, so there's no reason to worry about them now.

OH! There's the white lizard girl! Wait do lizard women even have the same parts? Something to look into later.

I can't help the feeling I'm forgetting something but this is important. As I think some more I remember that the workers who try and rob Nazarick have the cute half-elf girl and the bankrupt noble girl whose names I've forgotten. A particularly loud moan reminds me what I was forgetting, just how long was I planning on molesting Albedo? Not that she seems to mind, her face is completely red and she's panting heavily. With great reluctance I remove my hands from her (after one last squeeze for good luck). I'm not going to bother apologizing since she obviously enjoyed it.

"You're going to take me for the first time here and now, right? What should I do about my clothes? Shall I remove them myself or would you like to remove the, Lord Shiro?" Damn it woman, don't tempt me, I have important necromancer stuff to do. She really is one thirsty girl.

"Now isn't the time that Albedo, that will have to wait until later, I simply think better with a pair of breasts in my hands." Yup, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it "Anyway I have an order for you, Except for Victim and Gargantua, gather everyone at the fighting arena on the sixth floor. Have them gather there in an hour." I want my oaths of loyalty, there's something extremely satisfying about having such powerful beings kneel before me.

"At once, Lord Shiro. Please use my breasts whenever you require." I honestly can't tell is she really believes me about thinking better, but it really doesn't matter. I will happily take her up on that offer. As she leaves I spend a moment admiring her swaying ass, that's mine I can do whatever I want to it whenever I want. This is true power, not silly spells or waving swords around. The only sword I wish to wield is in my boxers, wait am I even wearing boxers? A quick check reveals that no, underwear is not included in the Momonga outfit, makes sense now that I think about it, guy has nothing to hide, literally. As amusing as my rambling are I decide to get back to business.

Time to get moving, using Momongas ring, one of way too many (dude liked his jewellery), I teleport to the sixth floor arena. Immediately after I arrive I see Aura jump from the box in an impressive display of acrobatics doing a front flip on the way down then doing a V for victory pose when she lands, she's way too cute. She rushes towards me kicking up a cloud of dirt (none of which goes near me, she really is impressive).

"Welcome, Lord Shiro! Welcome to the floor which we guard!" now that she's directly in front of me I realise that she's tiny, barely reaching my chest, was she always that small in the anime? I don't really remember. She's seriously excited, but I think that's just her default emotion.

"I will be intrude for a while." I already know what her response will be, I just want to hear her say it.

"What are you saying?! You are the lord of the Great Tomb of Nazarick! It's absolute ruler! There is no one that would ever consider you as intruding!" Yup, still makes me feel all warm inside to hear someone so strong acknowledge me as the ultimate ruler of this place. I can't believe Momonga got all depressed hearing them all compliment him, this is wonderful.

"By the way..." as I glance around she realises what I'm looking for, or who I'm looking for to be exact.

"Mare! You are being rude to Lord Shiro! Hurry up and get down here!" She's gesturing wildly at her brother as she yells at him. "I-I can't, Sis..." there he is, the best AoE damage dealer in Nazarick, shaking at the thought of jumping down. This boy has literal pet dragons that he rides and this scares him?

"Mare!" Aura seems as impressed by his fear as I am.

"F-fine!" it seems he's more scared of Aura then he is the drop, smart. As he jumps down with far less acrobatics then his sister the wind pushes his skirt up, despite the distance my upgraded eyes easily see things I really didn't particularly want to, there was something deeply wrong with his creator.

Almost falling over as he lands he takes a moment to straiten his short skirt before running over to me with what is perhaps the most feminine run I've ever seen. I take a moment to remind myself that traps are indeed gay, (making a note in my head to never to to the Re Zero world, meeting that trap catgirl/boy could only end poorly) and wait for him to reach me.

"I-I am sorry for making you wait, Lord Shiro." He's just way too damn cute, after spending another moment cursing his creator I calm myself down, briefly wondering why [Gamers Mind] isn't helping, and explain why I'm here.

"I came here today to have the two of you help me with something." Gesturing to the staff I have at my side.

"U-U-Um, i-is that the legendary item that only Lord Shiro can wield?" These two are way too excitable, it's too cute.

"That's right, This is the strongest guild weapon that Ains Ooal Gown created together. The Staff of Ains Ooal Gown. Each stone in the mouths of the seven crowning snakes is a god artifact" Unlike Momonga I don't feel particularly proud of the staff, it's an impressive weapon but I'm not the one who spent so much time trying to make it, it's a tool nothing more. "On top of that, the power in the staff itself transcends god level. It's on par with any world level item." Even still I'll happily boast about it, the look of awe in their eyes is wonderful.

"Amazing!" "That's so amazing, Lord Shiro!"

"I have decided to run some tests with it. You two will be assisting"

"Yes! We will prepare immediately!"

"Also, I have ordered the Guardians to gather here, they will arrive within the hour." Aura makes an amusing face when I say that. I'd almost forgotten about her dislike of Shalltear.

"Huh? Is Shalltear coming as well?" She looks kinda sad when I nod. Oh well, they'll have to learn to tolerate each other, maybe it'd be amusing to stick them on a mission together?

I have the lizard-like set up some targets for me (I'm not sure if they are the same spices as the Season 2 lizards, but honestly I don't really care either).

[Summon! Primal Fire Elemental!] with the spell cast the red gem in my staff glows before both targets burst into flames turning into an inferno, which quickly takes the shape. The beast is massive, a floating body made of pure flame. My newly discovered pyromania greatly approves of the site.

"Aura, Mare, try fighting it." The look of excitement on Auras face is amusing, but not as amusing as the worry on Mares. Sorry little trap you aren't getting out of this.

"Huh?! Can I?"

"U-Um, I just remembered something I needed to do..." oh no you don't, you're not escaping this, fight for my amusement.

"Mare!" Aura grabs Mare before he can try and sneak away, there's no real reason to make him fight it, I just think it's mildly amusing, in all seriousness the Fire Elemental couldn't threaten a single Floor Guardian, let alone two.

"Primal Fire Elemental. Attack the Twins!" It tried, it really did, in this world a Primal Fire Elemental could probably destroy a country as it's level is in the upper eighties. But against Auras whip and Mares support magic

it barely managed to put up a fight. Poor elemental, I actually feel slightly sorry for it, I'll summon it in some other battle where it can rampage for a while later.

Still I better message Sebas to tell him where to meet us. [Message]

"Yes. What is it, Lord Shiro." Sebas says, his voice seems to be coming from inside me head, weird but after the past day my sense of normality might be a bit skewed.

"Sebas, Come to the sixth floor arena to make your report, I have called the floor guardians there." I already know what he's found I just need him to tell the others.

"At once, Lord Shiro." If he thought not asking him to tell me first was strange he didn't let it show in his voice, but that's only natural he's a cool composed butler after all.

"The two of you did well."

"Thank you very much, I haven't exercised this much in a while!" Maybe I should let Aura out on missions, she seems to enjoy fights, though I suppose the world out there would just disappoint her.

"You must be thirsty." Probably not as thirsty as Albedo though. Taking a jug of water that seems to be enchanted to be permanently full and 2 glasses out of my inventory, briefly wondering why Momonga had these in the first place and making a note to check what else he had, I fill the glasses up and pass them to the twins. The twins are clearly surprised that I did this for them.

"I thought you would be a scarier person, Lord Shiro."

"Hmm, you think so? I can be scarier if you'd like me to." I sarcastically comment as I let my magic flare out for a moment giving me a glowing purple aura.

"How you are now is better! It's definitely the best!" Aura says as Mare nods along. I wonder is it better to be feared or loved? Isn't the quote 'Be feared or be loved but don't be hated' it's something like that anyway, I never paid attention to philosophy, Why do I have to pick one, I'll just be loved by my followers and feared by everyone else.

"My, am I the first?" A new voice asks. There she is, the Gothic loli vampire appears through a portal. Harem target number 2 spotted. Don't worry Shalltear, I don't even mind that you stuff your bra, flat can indeed be justice. I am absolutely not letting her get mind controlled, that old lady with the world item is currently at the top of my to kill list. I really don't want to have to fight her, if I can avoid it I can skip an entire arc and steal a world item for Nazarick.

"My Lord!" Shalltears face lights up when she sees me. She rushes up to me and jumps up pressing against me, holding her hands against my face, Nazarick really is a stupidly easy location to get harem members "The one beloved man I cannot rule above!" Her 'breasts' are strangely hard and lumpy, just what did she stuff down her top? She is a strange one. Still she has over qualities that make up for her flat chest, as I reach down and use my free hand to have a feel of her firm ass. She immediately widens her eyes and blushes massively (which is curious itself considering she's a vampire, does she even have flowing blood? Questions for later) but says nothing as I enjoy myself with a few squeezes. She's surprisingly shy despite her usual behaviour.

"Shalltear, why don't you give it a rest?" Both the twins are blushing as well, Mares suddenly seems extremely interested in the floor. But neither call be out for my blatant groping, being the supreme one is the best. Still I'll stop for now.

"Oh, little shorty. You were here? It must be difficult, Mare, to have such a crazy older sister." Shalltear seems rather annoyed to have her time with me interrupted. Still the bickering is probably going to get annoying.

"Fake boobs." Aura says quietly.

"What!?" You would think Shalltear being a Ancient Vampire would have good self control, she does not.

Aura gets a smug grin at Shalltears reaction. "Looks like I was right! That's why you went through the trouble of using a gate to get here. You were in a hurry, but since you overstuffed your breasts they would shift if you ran."

"Shut your mouth! You have nothing, yourself!" Shalltear shouts, looks like Aura got a critical hit to Shalltears weak spot.

"I'm still only 76 years old, but you're an undead. It must be tough having no more chance to grow. Why don't you accept what you have now?" Auras smug grin has only gotten stronger.

"Bitch! You should think carefully about what you say!" Shalltear rushes over to get in Auras face, looks like these two will be at this for a while, Mare looks highly uncomfortable.

"What a ruckus. You two are playing around too much in front of our master." A massive heavily armoured insectoid creature interrupts the argument. Cocytus looks just as cool in person as he does in the show. I definitely want to put him to better use than wasting his talents on some lizard men. The guy could crush armies and Momonga had him playing village chief for some random lizards.

"This little shorty slandered me!" "I just told the truth!" Looks like the intend to keep arguing, but it's no longer amusing.

"That's Enough! Shalltear. Aura. That is enough playing around." Flaring my magic again to get the point across (and because it makes me look cool)

"I apologize!" they both bow immediately, it's good to be the boss.

"You came, Cocytus." I say to the blue giant.

"I shall always respond immediately to your summons." His response is immediate and satisfying, seriously how did Momonga ever doubt these guys.

"Yes, good work." Loyalty should be rewarded after all, even if it's simply a small acknowledgement.

"Everyone, I apologize for making you all wait." and there he is, best boy Demiurge. He doesn't know it yet (I think, you never can tell with these genius types) but he's going to take over this world for me. Albedos here as well, and like that the gang's all here.

"Now, everyone. To our supreme leader, the ritual of fidelity." Albedo says, she really is the greatest.

"The guardian of the first, second and third floor, Shalltear Bloodfallen. I bow before the supreme one." Shalltear kneels as she makes her oath.

"The guardian of the fifth floor, Cocytus. I bow before the supreme one." Cocytus kneels next, amusingly he's still taller than Aura and Mare.

"The guardian of the sixth floor. Aura Bella Fiora" "A-Also the guardian of the sixth floor, Mare Bello Fiore." "We bow before the supreme one." The twins next, kneeling in sync, I wonder if they practised?

"The guardian of the seventh floor, Demiurge. I bow before the supreme one." Damn it he sounds so fucking cool, I can't wait for him to become Jaldabaoth.

"The leader of the guardians, Albedo. I bow before the supreme one." Albedo follows gracefully kneeling in front of the others.

And that makes all of them, the most powerful beings in this entire world, and they are all kneeling to me. Damn it feels good to be me, this world is completely fucked.

"Other than the guardian of the forth floor, Gargantua, and the guardian of the eighth floor, Victim, all of the guardians have gathered to bow before you. Please bestow your orders upon us, Supreme One. We offer our complete loyalty to you."

"Wonderful, my floor guardians! I am confident that all of you will be able to fulfil your duties without fail!" I really am, they are the perfect group of followers to help me gather wealth and power.

The looks of joy on all their faces (except for Cocytus, I can't read him at all but I think he's happy) makes me feel some joy of my own, all these absurdly strong followers and they're satisfied with just a few words of praise, I am one lucky Supreme Being.

"Onto business. Right now the Great Tomb of Nazarick is caught up in an unknown situation. I already had Sebas survey our surroundings..." as I gesture over to Sebas who has been waiting of to the side he starts his report, I pretend to pay attention while sneaking looks at Albedos cleavage as I already know where we are.

"Grasslands?" Demiurge asks

"Yes, Completely different from the swamps that surrounded the Great Tomb of Nazarick, I could not confirm a single building, human, or monster in a one kilometer radius." Sebas reports.

"Good Work, Sebas. It seems that Nazarick has been transported to an unknown land. Floor guardian leader, Albedo, As well as the defensive leader, Demiurge." "Yes!" "Create a stronger information sharing system and fortify our defences!" "Yes!" Its nice to be the one who just has to order something done, and not actually have to put the work in.

I'm torn on this next part, Momonga had Mare hid the Tomb by making fake hills, but do I even want to hide? Even if people come here what exactly would they do other than die a slow and painful death? Still I want to try and keep things similar to canon, so my future knowledge remains useful, even if it means hiding, for now.

"Mare, is there a way to conceal the Great Tomb of Nazarick?" I ask with hidden reluctance.

"I-It would be difficult using just magic. But, if we covered the walls with dirt and concealed ourselves with vegetation..." he says before getting cut off.

"You want to smear the glorious Nazarick walls with dirt?" Albedo sneers, her tone far different from how she speaks to me. Still better put a stop to this.

"Albedo! Do not make unnecessary remarks." I order, better to put my foot down quickly.

"Yes. I am very sorry, Lord Shiro." That's better, her voice sounds less scary now.

"Is it possible to conceal ourselves by covering out walls with dirt?" I ask, getting things back on track.

"Y-yes. As long as you allow it, however..." Mare trails off without finishing.

"Yes, a random mound would look unnatural. Create multiple dummy hills in the area so Nazarick blends in better. Afterwards we will hide the open areas that we cannot cover with illusions." I don't both asking if there are already hills, I know there are not and this is going on long enough as it is.

"Y-Yes. I understand." Mare really is a good boy, a terrifyingly strong good boy but a good boy all the same.

"And lastly, I wanted to ask each floor guardian something. First, Shalltear. What kind of person am I to you?"

Again I already know the answers, I just want to hear them praise me. Is that so wrong?

"A crystallization of beauty. The most beautiful person in this world!" Shalltear replies immediately, blushing again (still curious about the biology behind a blushing undead), as someone who was at best a 5/10 in my past life hearing that feels wonderful.

"Cocytus." "Stronger than all of the guardians, a man worthy to be the absolute ruler of the Great Tomb of Nazarick." Hearing the personification of the word 'Warrior' call me the strongest is highly entertaining, especially since I have no idea if I could beat him, Momonga could but while I have his power I don't have his strategic mind.

"Aura." "A merciful leader who excels at foresight." Err sure lets go with that, Merciful? Somehow I doubt our enemies will agree, or disagree for that matter since the dead rarely speak. And excels at foresight? Sure if you call cheating with future knowledge 'foresight', I do, I'm not here to play fair I'm here to dominate this world, to see it's kings and emperors fall before me.

"Mare." "A-A Very kind person." ...sure lets go with that. For the sake of my sanity (what's left of it anyway) I'm not going to try and guess why he's blushing.

"Demiurge." "A Man who makes wise decisions and acts upon them efficiently. A man who truly fits the word "inscrutable"" Yup that's me, and my first wise decision is to leave those decisions up to Demiurge and Albedo. Let the actual geniuses do they heavy thinking for me.

"Sebas." "The head of all the supreme beings and a merciful leader who stayed behind with us until the very end." ...yeah I definitely did that, I didn't show up at the last minute and take the actual leaders place. Though I do wonder, they all know me by name and don't think there's anything off with my appearance. So did Momonga just not exist in this version of reality? Ehh too much thinking, I'm here, he's not.

"And lastly, Albedo." "The highest ranking of all the supreme beings and our ultimate master. As well as the man I love!" Aww, love you too honey, I wonder what would happen if I actually said that. Chaos probably, but funny chaos. Maybe another time.

"I have heard all your thoughts. Continue working faithfully in my name!" I let my magic out to it's fullest so my aura makes me look cool while I deliver the line. It's extremely important to do so and not just me being a child. "Yes!"

And with that I'm out, I don't want to stick around for Albedo and Shalltears argument. Shiro Away! [Greater Teleportation]

*Third Person PoV*

"Th-that was really scary, Sis." Mare mumbled. Clutching his staff tightly.

"Seriously, I thought we were going to be squashed by the pressure!" Aura agreed rising from her kneeling position.

"To think he would be this amazing." Cocytus said rising to his full height.

"So that is Lord Shiro when he truly shows himself as our ruler." Albedo murmured clutching her hands closely to her chest

"So it would seem." Demiurge agreed.

"It seems he has answered to our vow of fidelity."

"He was completely different when he was with us." Aura laughed "Lord Shiro was super kind. He even gave us something to drink just because we seemed thirsty."

"I shall depart first. I do not know where Lord Shiro went, but I should be by his side." Sebas informed the others.

"Sebas, inform me immediately if anything happens. Especially if Lord Shiro calls for me. I will rush to his side! No matter what I have to sacrifice in exchange" Albedo Shouted getting more and more excited as she spoke. "But tell Lord Momonga that I will need time if he calls me to his bedchamber. I would need to bathe first, of course if he wants me to go without bathing..."

"I understand. Then I shall take my leave, floor guardians." Sebas interrupted in a deadpan voice, sparing the other guardians of Albedos babbling.

"Is something wrong, Shalltear?" asked Demiurge, noticing that she still hadn't risen from her kneeling position.

"H-His amazing presence has excited me so much that my underwear has gone through a bit of a crisis..." Shalltear replied, with a blushing face and exactly zero shame.

"That's only natural, we received so much of Lord Shiro's energy, any girl would get wet from something like that." Albedo replied casually, in another life Shalltear and Albedo would end up arguing out of jealousy however in this life Albedo had her settings, her very core personality changed to prevent that on a whim. A butterfly effect that would cause them both to grow closer in their attempts to please their supreme one.

Meanwhile Shiro wandered Nazarick not realising the discussion that was going on between his two "waifus". Not that he'd particularly care as long as it got him his harem. He's a simply guy like that.

*Shiros PoV* Later that day

Momonga only had the class of magician, this meant without using magic items he couldn't wield a sword, a quick test showed that this was distinctly false for me as I could wield a sword easy enough even without using the armour Momonga wore during his time as the Dark Hero Momon, I still don't really want to though. So I pass my sword back to Narberal, the battle maid who was currently serving me.

"Narberal, I'm going to go out for a bit."

"The guards have already been prepared." She replies, Momonga denied that but I dont really care.

"I'm heading to the surface to check on Mare's progress. Have them meet me there. [Greater Teleportation]" It's not like I have anything to hide after all, my current plans simple, reward Mare and tell Demiurge to take over the World. Nothing difficult.

Appearing on the first floor I spot Demiurge and his demon generals, they quickly bow at my appearance.

"Lord Shiro. You came here without any guards?" Demiurge asked quickly

"I didn't feel like waiting for them, they are likely already on their way here." I casually reply. It's not like I'm in any danger.

"Even still I cannot allow you to leave without anyone accompanying you." I'd be annoyed if it wasn't for the fact that I know he's just being overprotective.

"Very well, you may accompany me." It's easier to just let him than too argue. Besides he's a vital part of my plan for tonight, so I need him to follow me anyway.

"Thank you very much for accepting my selfishness." And like that Demiurge has fallen into my cunning plan. My genius knows no bounds.

With Demiurge behind me I head through the entrance and equip an amulet of flight from Momongas inventory, flying into the sky. I can hear Demiurge making weird noises as he turns into his weird frog like demon form. It's creepy looking so I don't turn back.

If I was Momonga I'd be admiring the night sky right now, and I'll admit that it's very pretty but I don't find particularly praise worthy, there are far more beautiful things below than some balls of gas, I don't mean that in a deep way, I'm being quite literal Albedo, Shalltear, Aura and the Maids are below me in the tomb and they are far more enchanting than the night sky.

"Demiurge, I've decided to conquer this world." I hear a gasp behind me, it's good to keep things clear, the whole conquest originally only happened because Demiurge misunderstood Momonga, that's not going to happen here. "I want you to create a strategy to see this goal accomplished."

"Of course, My Lord!" Aww, he's so excited, that's adorable. Or it would be if he wasn't a demon frog thing. So weird.

With that part of the plan complete I fly down to where I can see Mare working and land near him.

"Lord Shiro!" he shouts as he does his little run towards me, it's nice how they're always happy to see me.

"Why are you here? Did I make a mistake?" He asks worriedly.

"No, Mare. Your work to prevent others from finding Nazarick is very important. That's why I wanted you to know just how satisfied I am." As always praise your minions, a happy minions is a hard working minion.

"Yes, Lord Shiro!"

"Right. Then, this is for you." Handing him a ring from Momongas inventory.

"Ring of Ains Ooal Gown." He shouts, stunned. "This is an item that only the supreme beings are allowed to wear, so I can't possibly accept it!"

"Calm down Mare. Movement between the floors of Nazarick is limited, this ring will allow you to move freely. Now take this ring and serve Nazarick well!" Just take the thing already damn it, I wanna be done with this so I can go to bed.

With a look of joy he takes the ring and quickly slides it onto his finger. "Th-Thank you very much! I will be sure to work hard to live up to s-such a treasure!"

"I'm depending on you Mare." I reply, he really is an easily pleased person.

Hmm, that's odd. Where's Albedo? Isn't see suppose to arrive and get jealous over the ring? I already took another one out for her but she doesn't seem to be showing up. Oh well I'm sure it's nothing.
