"It seems Lord Ainz has already taken action."

"We can't dawdle, let's catch up!"

As Aura rushed out of the portal first, the monsters that followed swarmed toward the city gate.

“Hmm, Mare, we can’t just sit idly by this time; we have to do our part too.”

"I...I know."

The two each chose a mount and then planned to enter the capital city.

This time, the guardians did not gather together, but each chose a different direction to attack the city.

They also agreed on certain conditions with each other.

The victor is the one who reaches the highest royal city while relentlessly destroying the capital and killing humans.

……

"Then let's set off."

No longer needing to conceal his identity, Demiurge commanded the demons and their generals to launch an attack from another city gate.

"Boom!!"

It's too fragile; those sturdy city walls could easily take it down.

Demiurge didn't take the soldiers' hasty retreat seriously.

Apart from their followers, these mediocre people have no value whatsoever.

But then, as if he had just thought of something, he pushed up his glasses and spoke with a smile.

"Perhaps sending it to the ranch will allow it to reveal much of its essence."

"pity."

"Lord Ainz wants complete destruction, but to leave with the mercy of death."

The mournful cries could now be heard clearly.

.........

"Brian!"

Gerdov looked at the man standing in front who showed no intention of backing down and shouted.

"I never thought this day would come."

"I'm sorry, Gerd, but this is the only road I can't pass."

With his hand already on the hilt of his sword, Brian looked at Cocytus leading a group of icy snow maidens ahead and said in a deep voice.

This street is where he met Sebastian and Clem.

During Brian's darkest period, it was that old man who guided him out of his fear.

Thinking back to the warriors I had met before, their strength was dazzling and magnificent.

Humans are not as weak as they seem.

He won't run away anymore.

"You boy!"

Looking at the serious-minded Brian, Gerdav understood his will as a man.

Then he drew his secret sword and stood beside him.

"Hey, this is really inspiring."

Even without much conversation, that action made Brian grin.

Even if I die next, there's nothing to be afraid of.

"Ordinary soldiers can't stop them at all; we've already tried to tighten our defenses as much as possible."

"There's no difference between you and me."

"Even if it can only stop it for a while, it is definitely a meaningful thing."

This sudden attack was unexpected by the kingdom, and the hastily assembled armed forces were completely powerless to resist.

Fortunately, due to the previous series of "natural disasters," the citizens have developed the habit of fleeing towards the royal city at the first sign of any loud noise, so there have been no injuries so far.

Gerdoff didn't stay with Brian on a whim.

Rather, as the kingdom's warrior captain, this land was his last stand, and he could not back down.

It is no easy task to let Brian face such a powerful enemy alone.

By combining their strengths, they might be able to glimpse a glimmer of hope.

"boom!!"

"Haha, destroy it, destroy it!"

As the monsters smashed through the city walls and houses like tofu, Aura shouted with joy.

On the other side, the demons and their generals launched a relentless invasion.

With the addition of the legion led by Cocytus, the capital city may soon be reduced to ruins.

……

"Magic Enhancement: Destroy High-Rank Item!"

He raised his hand and unleashed magic, destroying the opponent's weapon before it could unleash its slash.

Ainz's gaze fell on Freyren, who was about to raise her staff, and then he shouted again.

"Ultimate Magic Enhancement: High-Rank Magic Seal!"

"High-level teleportation!"

Seeing the white-haired elf's stiff posture, Ainz took the opportunity to dodge the greatswords attacking from behind.

(Sure enough, there were quite a few weapons.)

As soon as they created some distance, Ainz saw Seiya throw away his broken sword and conjure up new twin swords out of thin air.

This wasn't the first time he'd damaged Saber's weapon, but she was always able to pull out a new one instantly.

It's exactly the same as the previous weapon. I really don't know how many this guy prepared.

Even with some advance notice, Ainz still found it quite something to complain about.

"All-around enhancement!"

"Magic Shield!"

Ainz never dared to slack off in his battles against these people, trying to maintain his buffs as much as possible.

The struggle had been going on for a while, and although it was somewhat difficult, it wasn't as difficult as he had imagined.

This is perhaps all thanks to having ample magical means to deal with it.

Improve base attributes to counter warrior-type Saber and Caster familiars.

As for Caster, who only has magical attacks, he interferes with him in various ways, and so far he has successfully prevented the opponent from casting a single spell.

As long as we don't get caught up in their coordinated attack, it won't be too troublesome.

Even if you are countered, you can ignore the threat by avoiding being hit.

"Negative Explosion!!"

The jet-black energy emanated from itself, forcing back the approaching Simmel.

"Whoosh whoosh!!!"

"Magic Range Expansion - Black Hole!"

With a wave of his hand, Ainz released a black sphere that could absorb everything, blocking the incoming fire arrow.

He never let his guard down against Saber for a moment.

"Hmph, it seems that even with the three of them working together, their teamwork is still not smooth enough."

Ainz made a mocking sound, thinking that these three were just a "temporarily formed" team in the game.

They weren't exactly in sync; they just relied on their superior strength to make up for any lack of coordination.

(But if you keep at it, you'll become good at it.)

(Hmm, I need to think of a way to disrupt their rhythm)

As a player, Ainz knew that this was only a temporary "disadvantage." Even the dumbest guy would accumulate some skill and experience over time.

Right now, it's just that the three opponents aren't familiar with each other yet. Once they really get along well, it will be troublesome for him.

Therefore, the best approach is to preemptively disrupt the enemy's mindset.

Whether it's trash talk or harassment, as long as it distorts their actions, it's considered a success.

This tactic has proven effective time and again in games.
