"I didn't expect that time travel could actually be real."

Naoki Yamazaki gently stroked the gaming helmet in his hand and muttered to himself.

He traveled to the world of a light novel he had read before.

In this world, a game called [yggdrasil] appeared.

The protagonist traveled to another world at the moment the game was shut down.

Then a series of adventures began.

After learning the background of his world, Naoki Yamazaki bought this gaming helmet as soon as possible.

Moreover, in the game world, he established a friendly relationship with an alien player named 'Flying Squirrel', and together they created a game guild called 'Ainz Ooal Gown'.

He put on his helmet and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"linkstart!"

His consciousness gradually sank into the game world.

The scene before my eyes has undergone a drastic change.

Well, in fact, you don’t need to shout such passionate slogans to log into the game.

But every time he enters the game, he still can't help but shout something like this.

Perhaps the middle school boy soul in my heart has not completely disappeared.

Or maybe it's to commemorate a line from a famous work in my mind.

"Hey, Yashiro-san, you're here/smiley face."

Just as I saw the reality clearly, a slightly excited voice came to my ears.

"Momonga-san, it's really early. Have you been staying in this room the whole time?"

"Ah, of course. If any of my companions come back, I, as the guild leader, should stay here."

This room, which only contains a huge oval jade table, is called: Between the Round Tables.

The setting of this room is: as long as the members wearing the guild ring come online, they will automatically appear in this room unless in certain specific scenarios.

It is the same as 'when a novice player is resurrected, he will always appear at the resurrection point in the novice village'.

Of course, Momonga knew this clearly.

It is impossible for other members of the guild to return here.

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, President."

"Ah, no, I just did some trivial things..."

"That's not the case, Momonga-san. It's because you're the guild leader that the forty-two of us were able to enjoy this game so much. Without a doubt, this is all thanks to you."

"Ah... um... thank you."

"What are you talking about? At this time, shouldn't I be the one thanking you?"

"Ah...sorry."

"So, what are you apologizing for?"

The skeleton wizard in front of you, who looks extremely evil and exudes a terrifying aura at all times, is the protagonist of this game world - Flying Squirrel.

However, after actually getting along with him, I found out that his heart is exactly the opposite of his appearance, and he is a very gentle person.

Although he looks evil and ugly on the outside, he is actually very delicate and gentle on the inside.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this cute contrast that 'Cui Yu Lu' is so close to Momonga-san.

After all, that person is not only a setting maniac, but also particularly likes contrasting settings.

In the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, the creator of the three NPCs - Albedo, Nigredo and Rubedo - was the Emerald Record herself.

叮·

The sudden prompt sound startled the two alien species.

Then, a dark slimy mass suddenly appeared on the seat on the far right of the round table.

Momonga and Yashiro showed surprise upon seeing this.

"Heiro Heirosang, long time no see/happy!"

"Good evening, Hero Hero/Say hello."

"Ah, you two, you're here. It's been a long time since we last met. Sorry, I've been busy with work so I can only be online for a while now..."

"Hei Luo Hei Luo Sang, there's no need to apologize. Rather, I was too willful to send you a message even though I knew you were very tired from work."

"It's totally fine... I'm just really tired lately, and I feel like my body is reaching its limit..."

"Are you ok?"

"Well, if the boss disappears tomorrow, or the company goes bankrupt, or the world ends, maybe I will be redeemed by it..."

"Wow——it just sounds serious."

Kurohero kept complaining to the two about the companies and bosses in the real world.

Yashiro and Momonga quietly became two listeners.

From here on, the plot is basically the same as what the eighth generation is familiar with.

Today is the last day before the game is shut down.

When the time passes past midnight, the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick will be transported to another world.

The exhausted Hei Luo Hei Luo would log off and go to sleep before twelve o'clock.

When the game was finally shut down, Flying Squirrel was waiting alone for the system to automatically kick him off, but he was not kicked off.

But because of unknown reasons, he traveled to another world.

"I should log off now. I'm super sleepy now. I have to get up at 4 o'clock tomorrow..."

"Ah... take some rest."

"Well, I hope to see you somewhere later, Momonga-san, Yashiro-san."

22: 25: 01

Hei Luo Hei Luo turned into a white light and disappeared between the round tables.

Looking at the huge yet empty round table.

Not only Momonga, but even Yashiro felt an inexplicable emptiness in his heart.

Yashiro sighed slowly in his heart.

Originally, he planned to retain Hei Luo Hei Luo, and even more companions.

Let's go on an adventure to another world together and forget all the troubles in the real world.

This option seemed pretty good to him.

However, Kurohero——including the other 39 members of Ainz Ooal Gown, were different from him and Momonga.

In the real world, they all have families or other inseparable ties.

What's more, he had no way of being 100% sure that reality would proceed according to the plot in the novel.

What if his appearance caused a butterfly effect, resulting in Nazarick not being crossed in the end?

Then, wouldn’t he, who tried to keep others, become a sinner for all eternity?

"Yashiro-san, what are your plans next? You have to go to work tomorrow too..."

As soon as Momonga-san opened his mouth, he immediately felt regretful.

Today is the last day of the shutdown of 'yggdrasil'.

It was precisely because it was such a special day that he was so shameless as to send a message to Hei Luo Hei Luosang, hoping that his former companion would be online.

At least, in the last period of time.

He hoped that everyone could defend the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick together until the last second.

The eighth generation was one of the original ten suicides before the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick was built.

He is also the person who has accompanied Flying Squirrel the longest in this game.

The relationship between the two is the best in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick.

If even the last Yashiro-san were to quit the game, leaving him alone to guard Nazarick.

Perhaps, at this moment, he would not be able to hold back and cry out in pain.

Although skeletons don't shed tears.

The only good thing about being an undead wizard is that his expression doesn't change.

Otherwise, Yashiro-san would have noticed that his expression was gradually becoming distorted at this moment.

Kuroro Kuroro-san has already left, if Yashiro-san leaves too...

"Well, it's the last day after all. I'll join you in welcoming the last moment of the server suspension. After all, the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick is the most important base we built with our own hands."

"I...I see! Thank you, Yashiro-san."

When he learned that Yasiro was going to stay, especially when he heard him say that Nazarick was everyone's most important base.

It felt like when he was on the verge of death, a world-class item was used to heal all the wounds on his body in an instant.

At this moment, Feishu's heart was truly redeemed.

"Hey, hey, what are you thanking me for? Do you want to go out for a walk together?"

When Yashiro made the suggestion, Momonga's first instinct was to refuse.

Because he has the obligations as a guild leader.

But, looking at the empty round table.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he smiled as if he was discouraged.

"That's right... so where are we going?"

"Yes, the tenth floor, the throne room!"
