"Bukubukuchagama?"
"Yes." Imina was clearly very nervous. The name "Bukubukuchagama" didn't sound like a person's name at all. But she couldn't remember any other names the woman who had saved her in her childhood had said.
"Where did you meet her?"
Peroroncino and Momonga suddenly appeared in front of Imina.
"You need to return Hekkeran to normal first."
"Can you speak now?"
"When I was a child, a group of bandits suddenly broke into the half-elf village where I lived. They killed many people in our village and then took many young women."
"I hid, but the bandits found me. I ran away, and that's when I met a red-haired female swordsman."
"She learned about my situation, went to the village, killed all the bandits, and saved me."
"But my parents were dead, and many others lost their parents as well. To comfort us, that red-haired swordswoman told us stories about her adventures."
"The story mentioned Nazarick and Ainz Ooal Gown."
"I can't remember the details of the story."
"How long ago was this?"
"About fifty years ago..."
"Where was it?"
"In the large forest southeast of the Holy Kingdom."
"Albedo, immediately send a search team to the large forest southeast of the Holy Kingdom and start a search."
"Yes, Lord Ainz."
"Since you know Bukubukuchagama, I will allow you to leave, but not just yet."
"Thank you, Lord Ainz Ooal Gown." Hekkeran never expected he would be able to save his life like this.
"Imina! It's all thanks to you!" Hekkeran embraced Imina tightly.
........
In the early hours of the next day, Mare and Aura were planning to head to the Empire as scheduled.
Peroroncino also decided to accompany them to the Empire.
"Lord Peroroncino, we can handle this. You don't need to trouble yourself," Aura said.
"I just want to see what the Emperor of the Empire looks like. I've heard intelligence referring to him as the Bloody Emperor. I'm curious to see what he really looks like."
"Lord Peroroncino, then let's set off!" Aura said as she patted the giant dragon beneath her.
The giant dragon flapped its wings and flew toward the capital of the Empire.
"Lord Peroroncino, do you think the person that human mentioned is really Lady Bukubukuchagama?"
"It should be true. She was able to accurately recall the name 'Bukubukuchagama.' It's unlikely to be a lie."
"Aura, Mare. Do you want to meet Bukubukuchagama?"
"Yes!" Both of them said in unison.
"Fifty years ago? Perhaps she didn't come to this world at the same time as us."
"Fifty years is enough time for everything to change. It might be difficult to find any trace of her. It seems the nation-building plan is truly important!"
"We'll have to rely on reputation to attract Bukubukuchagama."
The dragon flew incredibly fast and soon arrived at the imperial capital.
The dragon landed in the courtyard of the imperial palace.
The landing of the dragon caused the ground to tremble slightly.
"A dragon! It's a dragon!"
The soldiers on the ground immediately shouted, attracting many soldiers to approach.
Peroroncino was currently in the form of a large-winged humanoid. He flapped his four snow-white wings on his back.
Aura and Mare jumped off the dragon's back. Aura activated the loudspeaker and said:
"Because the emperor of this country sent people to trespass into the Great Tomb of Nazarick, disturbing the rest of the Supreme One. The master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Lord Ainz Ooal Gown, and Lord Peroroncino are very angry. If you do not come to apologize, we will destroy this country."
"First, we will kill everyone here."
Mare raised his staff and struck it. A massive crack appeared beneath the feet of the soldiers surrounding the dragon, and hundreds of soldiers fell into the crack.
Mare struck his staff again, sealing the crack.
Peroroncino looked around and noticed someone with a different aura from the others. The person was surrounded by a large number of guards.
"Old man, have you ever seen a dragon like that?"
"No, those twins should be dark elves. As for the one flying in the sky, I've never seen their kind before."
"Are you the emperor?"
Peroroncino suddenly appeared in front of the enclosure where the emperor and his entourage were heading.
"Protect His Majesty the Emperor!"
The soldiers quickly raised their weapons and stood in front of the emperor.
Peroroncino flapped his wings, and all the soldiers in front of the king were blown away, crashing into the walls.
Thanks to the timely defensive magic cast by Fluder, the emperor was not blown away.
Peroroncino landed in front of the emperor.
"Bloody Emperor? You're even younger than I imagined!"
"And you are...?"
"I am Peroroncino, one of the supreme beings of Nazarick, as mentioned by the dark elf twins."
Peroroncino extended his hand and lightly tapped the defensive magic cast by Fluder. The magic instantly shattered.
"There's a saying: 'If someone does not harm me, I will not harm them. But if someone harms me...'"
Peroroncino did not finish the sentence. He extended his hand and gently squeezed, causing everyone in front of him to suddenly spit out blood.
"We will wait for your apology."
"Mare, Aura, let's go."
