Let's not discuss whether it's a trap or not.

Unfortunately, Olga had no choice.

Because Assassin definitely wants to make a deal with Berserk.

This had nothing to do with his will; it was purely Gin Ichimaru's own desire to try it out.

Can't stop

We can only let it go; most people would probably be panicked and discouraged by now.

The split between master and servant may begin here.

But Olga still tried to find a way to move forward.

"Well, there's no need to be so pessimistic."

"Perhaps Berserker really does have a way?"

"Teasingly," Gin Ichimaru said, looking at his Master who was staring at him.

"Is this consolation to you?"

You can interpret it that way if you like.

"That's very kind of you."

The highly individualistic communication between the master and servant is evident in the room.

Although the content sounded quite subtle, there wasn't a hint of hostility in it.

.........

Meanwhile, Rimuru encountered the people who were "ambushed".

In the dark, deserted alley, Rimuru ignored the monster insects that had been following her under the rooftops and eaves, and instead spoke in a cold tone.

"You've been following me for so long, just say what you have to say."

"Rider."

Chapter 522: Reasons and Explanations!

A deep, purplish-black portal appeared ahead, and an undead that emerged from it extended an invitation to its kind.

"You can say whatever you want to say here."

The aura belonging to the Demon King unfolded, and Rimuru could clearly feel the overwhelming power of the other party, far exceeding what he had felt before.

Rider has indeed become the true Demon King.

"It's colder than I expected, Berserker."

Ainz met her in the spacious alleyway, the spiritual energy emanating from her causing any creature that tried to approach to shiver and retreat.

(It seems that I've preemptively seized the Demon King's title, which has greatly displeased him.)

(However, that's understandable; it's always better to win first place yourself.)

(Once the advantage of going first is lost, it's very difficult to make up for it.)

Observing Rimuru's obviously unfriendly attitude, Ainz could only assume that.

Even though he knew this was the case, he couldn't say it out loud.

The purpose of this visit is to communicate with them, not to worsen our relationship.

Therefore, we cannot be as hostile as we usually are.

The original plan was to invite the other party to the temporary base, but if they refused, there was nothing that could be done.

"Just say what's on your mind."

"You wouldn't come looking for me out of boredom."

"Or do you want to fight me now?"

With her arms crossed, Rimuru looked at him seriously and asked.

"That wouldn't be bad either, but I doubt you'd be happy with it, would you?"

“The lives of those citizens are quite fragile in our eyes.”

Ainz glanced around and gave a meaningful reply.

"You're really arrogant, Rider."

"Does obtaining the Demon King's power make you so confident?"

With a rather cold tone, Rimuru retorted sarcastically.

He knew exactly what the other party had done.

The 30,000 soldiers of the Imperial Army massacred must have taken advantage of this opportunity to become the Demon King.

This was exactly the kind of thing Rimuru wanted to confront him about.

As a result, the person in question simply appeared in front of him as if nothing had happened.

"That's it for now."

"I'm not here to deal with you as an enemy."

"I have some important news that you might need."

"I saw Saber."

Hearing this, Rimuru fell silent, frowning as she looked at him.

Saber?

Speaking of which, Rimuru has seen all the Servants in this war except for Saber.

He was still wondering why he hadn't seen the rider who should have the highest profile for so long.

Now that Rider has mentioned it, Rimuru is naturally paying attention.

"What does Saber have to do with you coming to see me?"

Could there be a very important secret behind Rider appearing in front of him in person?

"You should know very well what kind of power and characteristics we, as demon lords, possess."

"But in reality, Saber was able to disregard my patience and inflict damage."

"I once thought it might be related to his weapons, but in retrospect, there was another reason."

Ainz believed that this information had to be revealed.

This is because it involves the subsequent issue of "alliance".

Given the nature of similar entities, it would be difficult to tolerate the existence of such an enemy.

The only worry is that Berserker won't believe what he says, which would be quite troublesome.

"Brave?"

Upon hearing Ainz's description of the scene, Rimuru blurted it out instinctively.

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Ainz was somewhat taken aback, but then all his confusion seemed to be resolved.

(Ignoring my patience, is that the hero's job?)

Ainz had certainly heard the story of the "hero and the demon king," so he was well aware of the cause and effect relationship.

He hadn't thought of that before; he was just considering it based on his experience playing against other players, so he hadn't thought about it in that direction.

It has always been believed to be the influence of special skills, magic, items, and equipment.

Now it seems that none of those were true at all.

Rather, it is a unique relationship of restraint.

(Theoretically speaking, not all heroes possess the power to subdue the Demon King.)

(So, did that Saber really kill the Demon King?)

Feeling a bit heavy-hearted, Ainz realized what a troublesome opponent he had gotten himself into.

This is a relationship with absolutely no possibility of reconciliation.

The sheer number of soldiers he killed was enough to make the enemy remember him.

Devil

This title seems to bring not only benefits, but also deeply hidden dangers.

(Saber is a hero too?)

(This is really bad.)

Although it was only one side of the story, Rimuru knew that Rider wouldn't speak carelessly.
