Chapter 27 - Declaration

As I sat upon the throne of kings thinking about the events that transpired none of the NPC's below made any noise or even dared to look up towards me. I had gathered almost all the NPC's of Nazarick in the throne room, with a few exceptions like Gargantua, Victim and Pandora's Actor, among others. As you can expect, the throne room is quite crowded right now.

I don't plan to change my name like Ainz did. I don't see any significance in making such a move. Nor do I expect the other guild members to appear here.

The reason for this meeting is just to make some announcements and start enacting the plans. Taking a look at all the NPC's, I typed:

'As you might know, I have just taken a first glance at this world called Earth. Albedo will fill you in on what happened later. Albedo, you can also disclose the plans we discussed to the NPC's.'

Hearing an affirmative response from Albedo, I moved on to the next topic,

'All the plans we have discussed until now can be set in motion. Pandora's Actor has already successfully infiltrated Kamar-Taj. Albedo, you can oversee the construction of time sanctuaries after Mobius provides information in the next couple of days.'

"As you command, lady White."

Demiurge will also start his research as well as surveying the Olmec settlement. He will also take charge of those flaming rocks that were tossed by Sebas and the Pleiades to somewhere I don't know for safekeeping.

I then pulled out some books from my subspace that had an undead or the guardians on the covers and passed them on to some of the NPC's. That's right these are the Overlord light novels. I used a 0th tier spell not mentioned in the original series simply called [Book Creation] to make these.

'These books contain an alternate version of events that might have happened, somewhat like the parallel universes we discussed. I used a hidden magic spell to view these events and create these books. These books record events of what would have happened if Momonga would have stayed behind instead of me and the Nazarick travelled to a New World, similar to our experience here.' I spoke about the light novels to them.

Of course I changed some things from how the original series went for convenience, for example, removing the authors name. I also did not mention Momonga's alteration of Albedo's settings to "She is deeply in love with Momonga". I did not want her to start getting any ideas after all. Albedo was as good as they come, when she was devoid of any yandere tendencies.

I also removed any of the misunderstandings such as Momonga not having a clue of what was going on, so that they did not think the Supreme Beings were incompetent. Even though that was not within the realm of possibility.

In the novel, Momonga was depicted to be the enigmatic Supreme Being the NPC's expected. I know for a fact on observing their behaviour for a while that they still think of me as all powerful even after knowing about the Marvel multiverse. I will tell them explicitly sometime later.

"WHY. WOULD. YOU. NOT. BE. THERE WITH. US. IN. THESE. EVENTS. MY. LADY?" Cocytus asked.

It seemed the NPC's were already vaccinated to the concepts of the multiverse and parallel universes, so they accepted something like this rather easily.

'In that universe, my situation is similar to the other Supreme Beings in our universe. I had already passed away and so Momonga stayed behind in Nazarick instead of me out of pity.' I lied with a straight face.

I did not even originally exist in that universe. As I said earlier I modified events slightly for my own comfort. I added and discarded anything I felt was necessary.

The NPC's faces darkened at a visible rate and before they could cause an uproar about this, I continued speaking,

'The reason I am providing you with these books that record the events that happened in that universe is so that you can learn from the mistakes your other selves made in advance and avoid repeating them ever again.'

In truth, I did not want to go through the hassle of personally correcting these mistakes. If they just go through the books, the mistakes NPC's made such as Shalltear's carelessness leading to her being brainwashed or Cocytus' defeat can be avoided.

Especially Shalltear's case. There are plenty of people who have mind control abilities much greater than Downfall of Castle and Country in the Marvel multiverse.

On a side note, after I distributed world items to the NPC's I also gave them the items Ainz did in the original novel. Such as Shalltear getting Peroronchino's encyclopedia, Aura getting Bukubukuchagama's watch and Demiurge getting Ulbert's prototype statue.

'We will convene meetings like this on Monday's at 3PM in the throne room from now on. This meeting is adjourned.' After setting the meeting to be held at the tarot club standard time, I disappeared from the throne room with a swish and appeared in my room on the 10th floor to avoid the onslaught of overprotective NPC's.

--------------------------

Third Person PoV:

Silence engulfed the throne room filled with terrifying heteromorphs and eldritch horrors. The events that had just occurred left the NPC's in surprise. While they wanted to discuss the supreme one's death in the alternate universe, everyone kept their thoughts to themselves.

There was no need to discuss in order to understand that all of them had the same thoughts. No one would dare to blaspheme the Supreme One within the confines of Nazarick by thinking anything sacrilegious.

After a few more minutes, Albedo got up, which was immediately followed by the rest of the NPC's. This was obvious as Albedo had the highest position of all the NPC's present as she had been appointed the Guardian Overseer by the Supreme Beings themselves.

"Demiurge, would you please tell everyone what we discussed earlier." Albedo spoke calmly without turning back.

"Upon reading through the scriptures known as 'comics' we realised the foresight in lady White's plans. The supreme one is weaving a web to entrap this entire multiverse as we speak. Every action she has taken so far has tactical significance."

"What are you trying to say, Demiurge? Speak quickly." Aura spoke up.

"I am getting to that, Aura. Albedo will tell you about what happened today as well as the plans lady White mentioned. If you connect all these clues lady White left us to test if we can figure out her intentions and actively try to accomplish them, everything makes sense."

"DEMIURGE. STOP. WASTING. TIME. AND. TELL. US. LADY. WHITE'S. INTENTIONS. QUICKLY."

"What Demiurge is trying to say is that we have to conquer this multiverse, gather all its treasures, heal lady White and offer up everything to her. Lady White will be the only true God of this multiverse, as it should be. Any objections?" Albedo turned around and spoke seriously along with a hint of murder in her eyes in case someone says otherwise.

Of course nothing like this happened. Everyone wholeheartedly agreed with what they just heard. Observing their reaction with satisfaction, Albedo shouted:

"All hail lady White!"

"All hail lady White! All hail the Supreme One!"

"All hail lady White! All hail the Supreme One!"

"….."

The chorus of chants filled up the throne room.
