Bone King: Starting from Becoming the Supreme

Boom! !

As a huge bell rang, everything in front of Shalltear disappeared.

The world around me turned into pure and flawless white.

Boom! !

The bell rang a second time, and the world suddenly turned upside down.

The pitch-black darkness gradually swallowed everything.

Boom! !

When the bell rang for the third time, the world finally saw light again.

Shalltear opened her eyes with difficulty.

Four huge pillars appeared around her out of nowhere.

A golden dragon is entwined on each giant pillar.

The claws of four giant dragons were wrapped around a huge black iron chain, tightly wrapping around her limbs and body.

It seems that there is enormous energy hidden in every chain.

She was suppressed so much that she couldn't even move a finger.

"What... exactly is..."

boom! ! !

In an instant, there was a loud thunder in the sky!

Without any warning, a bolt of lightning accurately landed on Shalltear in the center.

"Uh-ah!!"

The intense pain was like cutting one's soul with a blade.

Even Shalltear, who had a certain resistance to pain, couldn't help but let out the most painful and desperate cry.

At this moment, an ethereal voice came from the sky.

——【Judgment】

--【soul】

--【guilty】

--【in conclusion】

--【abyss】

Every sound seems to come from the farthest horizon, yet seems to be right next to your ear.

As the last sound dissipated into the horizon, a huge black sword emitting an evil aura began to materialize above the sky!

Four golden dragons coiled on the giant pillars roared towards the sky.

The pitch-black giant sword trembled continuously as if it had received an order.

boom! ! !

With one strike of the sword, everything became silent.

There seemed to be a sound of breaking glass in the air.

The Sword of Judgment seemed to cut through time and space.

boom!

One of Shalltear's hidden items became ineffective under this sword.

Shalltear's consciousness gradually went blank.

Just before her consciousness was about to fade away.

The image of the invincible man appeared before her eyes.

A smile appeared on her face.

With the last bit of strength left, he shouted from the bottom of his heart.

"Hail Ainz Ooal Gown!"

……

Throne Room.

Pushing open the door, Yashiro strolled leisurely on the soft red carpet.

In the hall which was already dead silent, countless pairs of eyes suddenly turned towards him.

"Oh, I'm so tired. This battle was really dangerous. As expected of the strongest guardian, I was almost killed by Shalltear."

Yashiro sighed, clutching his chest with his hands, looking exhausted.

When Ainz heard this on the throne, the non-existent muscles on his face could not help but twitch slightly.

"Um... Yashiro-san, we saw your entire battle through the perspective mirror..."

“…Eh? Really?”

"right."

Facing the many strange looks around him, Yashiro gave two dry laughs.

"Ahahaha, this is true... ah, right! Resurrect Shalltear! This is a waste of time, I'll go to the treasure hall to get the gold coins first!"

"Please wait a moment, Lord Yashiro."

This time, it was Demiurge who spoke.

When he heard Xiaodi's voice, Yashiro's heart skipped a beat. He stopped and turned his head slowly with a vigilant look on his face.

"What's wrong, Demiurge?"

Demiurge took a step forward and knelt on one knee.

Holding a glowing ring high in both hands.

His expression was extremely conflicted and struggling.

But soon, a look of determination appeared in his eyes.

“I beg you, Lord Eighth-daime, to take back this ring of Ainz Ooal Gown, which symbolizes the highest honor.”

Yashiro was slightly stunned and remained silent for a few seconds as if thinking about something before continuing.

"What's the reason?"

"This incident was undoubtedly my negligence. As a guardian, I did not foresee the possibility that world-class items would exist in this world, which led to Shalltear's rebellion. This is my dereliction of duty as a commander."

"Hmm... I can't accept this reason."

“…Why? I ignored Ainz-sama’s warning and was the culprit for Shalltear’s rebellion. It was my arrogance and negligence that led to the current situation. This is all my fault…”

"That's not right, Demiurge."

"..."

Yashiro interrupted what Demiurge was going to say next and turned to face him.

“Aren’t the real culprits the ones who attacked us? Whether it’s Shalltear, you, or all the other Guardians, aren’t we all victims?”

Ainz, who was standing nearby, nodded in agreement, but at the same time, a trace of anger rose in his heart.

"Yashiro is right, Demiurge. This is not your fault. We, the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, are the victims of this incident."

"The one who should really pay the price for this action is the guy who attacked us, Ainz Ooal Gown!"

"My fellow Guardians, from this moment on, Nazarick will enter a state of maximum alert."

“Even if we have to dig deep into the ground, we must find the guy who used the <World Class Item> on Shalltear.”

"No matter what, I, no, we in Nazarick will definitely settle this account!"

……

finally.

Yashiro still didn't take back the ring.

However, Demiurge did not put the ring on his finger either.

In his words:

The Supreme Being is merciful and has forgiven the mistakes of his subordinates, but as a slave, I must never take this forgiveness for granted. Until the subordinates have made amends for the mistake, I will never wear it, so as not to defile its sanctity.

Well~ to be honest, Yashiro himself doesn't have any special ideas.

After all, only the eighth generation knows best who made the real mistake this time.

It was not Ainz, nor the Guardians, nor the so-called real culprit behind the scenes - the Theocracy's Dark Festival.

It was Shalltear who had become careless and fallen into a state of blood frenzy.

If Shalltear had remained conscious at the time, she would have been able to avoid the control of the world-class item "Alluring Beauty".

As for the other members of the Black Festival, they were like small fry and could be easily crushed.

However, no matter right or wrong, true or false.

The end of the Theocracy will come after Ainz learns the truth and pays the corresponding price.

Even if the Theocracy was actually the real victim, the outcome would not change.

The throne room was already filled with the 500 million gold coins needed to revive Shalltear.

The dazzling golden light seemed to make the entire hall sparkle.

Ainz raised the guild staff high and issued an order.

“Shalltear, revive!”

The staff emitted a dazzling light.

Under this ray of light, the hill of gold coins gradually dissolved and gathered into a pool of golden solution, and then gradually transformed into the figure of a little girl.

The moment Shalltear's body was reshaped, Albedo immediately opened the guild members' panel.

The name in the column for [Shalltear Bloodfallen] had returned to its previous color.

In the hall, the guardians all breathed a sigh of relief.

All the Guardians, led by Aura, began to lecture Shalltear one by one.

A moment later, a huge howl was heard in the hall.

“Ah… Ah!! Lord Yasiro, Lord Ainz! Gone… Gone!! My… breasts!”
