Kazuma: What the hell happened?
Kazuma: It's the first time I saw a death notification that isn't Subaru or my name on it.
Subaru: 😒
Subaru: Don't lump me together with you.
Ainz: Guys, please focus on the important things.
Ainz: I almost had a heart attack reading the notification.
Kazuma: Heart attack? Yeah, sure skelly.
[User Kazuma is given a 30 minute ban with majority votes.]
Tanya: From the notification, it wasn't said he was killed. But his own body exploded?
Rimuru: It also said two extra dimensional beings collapsed his universe…
Ainz: Anyway, what's important now is to learn what has happened.
Ainz: Actually, I tried when I saw the first notifications. But before I could use a World Travel Ticket, a notification popped up stating there is a high risk of being caught in temporal disturbance, whatever that is due to the time dissonance.
Subaru: I thought the Admin was very strong since he created this Chat Group. If he can't even deal with the problem, what makes you think we could? What you just did is the same as suicide, @Ainz.
Ainz: …
Ainz: You are right! 😱
Kirito: 😗
Subaru: @Kirito You did it too didn't you?
Kirito: It's unfair he gets to hog a strong enemy for himself.
Subaru:💀
Rimuru: He's definitely the usual Kirito, alright. 😅
Tanya: Back to the topic, it said we must have a unanimous vote to create a Mission.
Tanya: So, who is against this mission?
Shiroe: Do we even know how the participants will be selected? I think we should figure that out first before we decide on the vote.
Ainz: Well, according to the rules. We will have some degree of freedom to decide the participants. However, it is still largely decided mainly on the difficulty since it is made mainly to prevent issuing an impossible to be completed mission.
Hajime: If that is the case, I don't think there's a reason to really hesitate.
Shiroe: +1
Subaru: +1
Lloyd: +1
Ainz: Alright, let's vote then.
…
…
[Votes have been casted.]
[Unanimous vote had been obtained.]
[Generating a Custom Mission.]
[Calculating objective difficulty…]
[Based on the calculation, only qualified participants are User Ainz, Rimuru, Subaru and Kirito.]
[Please nominate participants of the Mission.]
Kirito: Guys… hear me out first.
Tanya: Nah
Ainz: +1
Rimuru: +1
Hajime: +1
Shiroe: Sorry.
Shiroe: +1
Llyod: +1
Kirito: You all can't do this to me!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
Kirito: Lemme join!
[User Kirito is given a 1 week ban due to spamming and a unanimous vote.]
Ainz: Are you alright with participating in this Mission? @Subaru
Rimuru: Yeah, I figured the only reason why you could participate is due to your ability which makes you unlikable.
Subaru: I'll abstain.
Ainz: Alright.
[Participants for the mission had been decided. Please be prepared and ready for the mission. Participants will be teleported into the mission area in 5 minutes.]

(Inside Shadow Space)
"Mama!"
A deeply unsettling and guttural voice spoke like the voice one would expect from a nightmarish horror creature.
Yet, Asia didn't flinch as much but instead looked increasingly distressed.
"Uhm… I told you already, I'm not your mama. Also, how exactly am I going to feed you emotions?"
The black melty blob creature with tentacles on Asia's lap looks like it's scratching its head with its tentacles at the question.
"Dunno… But… Mama emotions taste yucky. I Like negative emotions taste yummy!"
Asia could only scratch her head while looking after her niece? nephew?
Anyway, this child was hungry but she didn't know what to feed it. In the first place, what do eldritch infants consume? Definitely not milk of any kind.
"Sister Asia"
"Hmn? Abby? Are you injured again?"
Asia turned to Abby who suddenly approached her instead of continuing her physical body rehabilitation.
"I think I can help with feeding Little Brother."
Abby then placed her hand on the blob which quickly swallowed her palm which made her giggle a little, saying it's ticklish.
Then, Abby channels some sort of reddish energy from her arm to her swallowed palm which the blob eagerly absorbs until it's satisfied.
Asia watches the process curiously. She did notice that Abby went up to Sakura beforehand and absorbed this reddish energy from Sakura before coming up to her.
"Uhm, he likes to eat negative emotions like Dad used to. Although Dad nowadays prefers to feed on our love emotions instead. He said it tasted better."
Asia nodded as she absorbed the weird knowledge that she didn't think she would need to know. But seeing how the blob grew a little and now looking less active. She assumes it's full and is going to sleep again.
With it sleeping again, Asia thanked Abby who returned to her sister to help with their rehabilitation. Especially Jack who needed help as she had trouble maintaining her humanoid form which keeps collapsing due to the special circumstances of her existence.
Asia gently and slowly strokes the blob and rocks it a little as if putting a real infant to sleep whilst watching Ray's daughters on the castle's training ground.
The child is indeed weird. From the moment of birth, it's already intelligent enough to hold simple conversations and has enough wisdom to put average adults to shame. However, that's not the weirdest part at all.
The child said it's already intelligent from the moment it was conceived by Kuroka and aware of its surroundings. Naturally, it's also aware when Ray prematurely removes it from Kuroka's body. However, it wasn't really bothered by it and didn't really seem to care about it or care about anything in general aside from satiating its hunger and sleep.
Well, Asia didn't really care about anything anymore with everything that had happened before. She felt guilty, thinking she is the reason why everything resulted in this way. Had she not been kidnapped, Ray's misfortune wouldn't have reached this extent.
Stricken by this guilt, Asia wanted to atone and ensuring this child grew up well is the only way she could think of atoning. Although, if Ray knew of her thoughts, he definitely wouldn't have blamed her since she is just a victim.
