Original subtitles

I can't believe I have to resort to using a god level item.

Lord Ainz.

What is it, Narberal?

I told you I was busy!

No, never mind. What's the matter?

Yes.

The leader of the adventurer's guild, Ainsach, has sent a messenger.

It seems he wants you to go to the guild immediately, to discuss the vampire that has appeared near E-Rantel.

I understand. Tell him I am heading there now.

World

I appreciate you busy mythril adventurers gathering here with such short notice.

Let's skip the idle chatter and go straight to the problem at hand.

Last night, in a forest near E-Rantel,

"E-Rantel Adventurer's Guild" "Guildmaster: Ainsach"

seven iron class adventurers came in contact with what they believe to be a vampire and five of them perished.

"Adventurer Team 'Rainbow' " "Moknach"

"Adventurer Team 'Sky Wolf' " "Bellote"

According to the survivor, the monster's blonde hair and large mouth were unforgettable.

"Adventurer Team 'Kralga' " "Igvarge"

That was definitely Shalltear.

Vampires can turn their prey into servants by sucking their blood.

It will be a catastrophe if the monster makes it into E-Rantel.

Could this be related to the communal cemetery case?

Oh, the one that Mr. Momon resolved last night.

I'm so jealous that he became mythril with such little work.

Hey, don't say such things!

From the items we recovered off the culprits at the cemetery,

we have concluded that Zuranon was behind that attack.

Zuranon. Isn't that the secret society that utilizes the undead?

Then, is the vampire related after all?

It may be a diversion.

However, we don't have enough information to evaluate the situation.

Well, we can't tell the strength of the creature off mere iron class.

We know that there is a cave near the area the vampire was spotted.

We'll send a scouting party there first.

That vampire has nothing to do with Zuranon.

Do you know something?

That vampire's name is Honyopnyot...

Huh?

It's Honyopnyoko!

The name Honyo...

Why do you know that vampire's name?

I've been hunting her for a long time.

I have a bit of a history with her.

She's strong.

My team will do the scouting.

If she is there, I will eliminate her.

What are you saying?!

Are you confident you can?

I have a trump card.

A magic sealing crystal.

It contains eighth tier magic.

Eighth tier?! That's the realm of mythology!

How stupid. He's got to be lying!

I don't mind getting it appraised, but I don't think we have the time.

What about the reward?

We can talk about that later.

However, at the very least, I want to be promised orichalcum.

Orichalcum?!

It's troublesome to prove my strength every single time.

I see.

My team will go, too!

I don't need someone who will drag me down.

What?! How can I trust a newbie adventurer like you with this?!

To begin with, we don't even know if that vampire is really strong!

Stop, Igvarge!

Your attitude this whole time has been uncalled for!

I don't mind.

However, if you come along...

you'll definitely die.

Shit!

Are you kidding me?!

Dammit!

Shit! This bastard! Let me go!

I'm going to kill you!

I'm going to kill you!

I warned you, but you didn't listen.

So this is the result of your choice.

Accept your fate.

Damn it!

Did I do an acceptable job?

Yes, of course.

It looks like there was no real need to call for you, Mare.

What shall we do with the corpses?

Take them all back.

I want to see if adventurers can be used to create high level undead.

Understood.

Mare, take Narberal back to Nazarick.

Y-Yes!

Master. I will be all right, will I not?

Is there a chance I'll be eaten?

Since you are Lord Ainz's pet, no one would eat you without permission.

Please take care of me, Master Narberal.

Right. Let's go then, Albedo.

Yes.

Shalltear.

Shalltear! Not a single word of defense and now you disrespect Lord Ainz?!

Quiet!

This can't be...

Is it possible? I don't believe it!

The question of how it affected an undead like Shalltear remains, but...

There was a battle here and someone put her under mind control.

No. Something happened and she was left behind without any orders.

That seems to explain the situation.

It seems a bit of a waste to use this, but we should nullify Shalltear's mind control quickly.

What is that?

This is the super rare item, Shooting Star.

You can use the super tier magic spell, Wish Upon A Star, up to three times.

I spent my entire summer bonus on gacha tickets to get this.

Super tier magic...

Is this the first time you've seen it?

Yes. I only know that it is supreme magic that surpasses tenth tier spells.

That's right.

Though it's closer to a skill than a magic spell.

Though it doesn't use any MP, there is a daily use limit and a long cast time.

To top it off, even items from the cash shop can't shorten the recast time.

But this item nullifies the cast time and activates the spell without the use of EXP.

You are willing to use such an important item for a servant like Shalltear!

What a compassionate master!

Now, ring! I wish to cure all of Shalltear's status effects!

What is this?!

Super tier magic doesn't work?

That kind of power exists in this world?

No!

We're withdrawing! Albedo, quickly!

Yes!

Shit.

Damn it all!

Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit!

Lord Ainz!

Sorry. Forget my blunder just now.

What in the world happened?

The ring activated, but the wish was rejected.

There is only one thing that super tier magic cannot beat.

I didn't think of the possibility that this world had them, too.

You can't mean...

World level items!

Albedo.

Raise the security level of Nazarick to maximum.

Also, have all the guardians that are out return immediately.

Um, according to the orders of Lord Ainz, we will supervise the first, second, and third floors.

We are currently on the highest possible alert.

Show your loyalty to the supreme beings with your actions.

We were created by the supreme beings to be of use to them.

Someone who doesn't respond to the expectations of their creator has no reason to exist.

What in the world is she doing?

I can't believe that Lady Shalltear would revolt.

Master Sebas, shouldn't we return to Nazarick as well?

No. We have been ordered to continue our mission.

Let us continue towards the capital.

Lord Ainz is a man of greatness.

I am sure he will take the best course of action for Lady Shalltear.

Is this your first time in the treasury as well, Albedo?

Yes. It cannot be entered without the ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.

That's true.

"Glory to Ainz Ooal Gown."

Let's see...

"By this means you will acquire the glory of the whole world, and so you will drive away all shadows and blindness."

...right?

Our destination is the mausoleum ahead.

There is a mausoleum?

The two of you don't know?

Then, what about Pandora's Actor?

I know of him since I am a supervisor, but I have never met him.

Pandora's Actor. He is the guardian of the treasury and rivals us in power and intelligence.

He was also created by Lord Ainz himself.

Th-That's right.

I am aware that he is the one responsible for our finances.

Yes.

Lord Tabula Smaragdina?!

Impossible... Wait, you're not him! Who are you?!

Even if you copy the appearance and aura of a supreme being, I would never mistake the one who created me!

I see. Kill him.

But...

That's enough, Pandora's Actor.

What?

Thank you for coming all this way.

My creator, Lord Momonga!

Y-You look well.

Yes! I'm doing quite well.

And so,

what is your business here this time

I've come for some world items.

World item!

It can change the world!

Immense power!

The supreme beings' symbol of greatness!

The various sacred treasures sleeping deep within Nazarick.

Are you saying their power will finally be unleashed?

Woah. He's so lame!

Yes, that's right.

I plan on taking Avarice and Selfless, Hygieia's Chalice, Billion Blades, and Depiction of Nature and Society.

Yes! I understand, Lord Momonga!

Also, call me Ainz now. My name is Ainz Ooal Gown.

I understand.

My creator, Lord Ainz.

Stop! Don't look at my dark past with such cold eyes!

That's right!

I set his clothes and actions like that because I thought it was cool!

Well, I still think that his military clothes are pretty cool...

Is something wrong?

Then, let's go.

Yes.

Have a safe trip, Lord Ainz.

And ladies.

Ladies?

I am the head of all the guardians and Yuri is the second-in-command of the Pleiades.

Do not address us so lightly.

I also request you not to do so.

My apologies.

I couldn't help myself in front of such beautiful roses as yourselves.

Hey! Come here for a second!

I'm your creator. Isn't that right?

That's correct, Lord Ainz.

Then this is an order, a request, from your creator!

Will you stop with the saluting?

Huh?

Yes, I mean, how should I put this?

It looks weird.

Your military garb is fine because you're strong, but, seriously, let's stop the saluting.

If it is the will of my god!

Was that German?!

Don't do that in front of me, either.

Okay...

I'm really begging you.

To think my emotions would have to be regulated for something like this!

This is more embarrassing than riding a huge hamster...

Sorry for the wait, Albedo.

Not at all.

Give Yuri the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown I gave you.

You cannot teleport to the treasury without the guild ring,

but if you enter this room with it on, the golems here will attack you.

These golems.

Are they created in the likeness of the supreme beings?

You noticed.

I created them in the memory of my old comrades.

They look pretty shabby, don't they?

That is not true.

However, you called this a mausoleum and their likeness is here.

Could it be that the other supreme beings have perished?

That's not exactly right.

No, that may be the real truth.

Each of them retired after handing me their equipment and items.

Well, this'll do.

You told me it was okay to sell it all,

but I can't do that Peroroncino-san.

Please come back anytime.

Even then, I want to believe that everyone is somewhere in this world.

What's wrong?

No, it's nothing!

S-See? There's an empty spot, right?

I plan to put a statue of myself there.

Please don't say such words.

Please don't say things like that!

Lord Ainz.

The merciful Lord Ainz, who stayed behind with us.

Please! Please rule over us forever.

I beg of you from the bottom of my heart!

Please! Please!

Forgive me.

L-Lord Ainz! P-Please promise me.

Promise me that you won't toss us aside and leave this land!

I'm sorry, but...

Why? Why won't you promise me?!

What are you dissatisfied about?!

If you tell me, we will quickly eliminate the problem!

If you say I'm the one in your way I would kill myself immediately!

That's not it!

Listen to me.

The effect of the world item's mind control over Shalltear is absolute.

In order to defend ourselves against it, we have to wield world items as well.

Th-That's why you came to get the world items here, right?

That's right. But I will have the guardians wield them.

Huh?

Actually, there's a way to save Shalltear.

Th-That's...

One of Twenty, the twenty world items of unrivaled destructive power, is back here.

However, the power of a Twenty is so large, you lose it after one use.

Now that I know there are world items in this world as well and that an enemy is in possession of one,

I'm hesitant to use such a trump card right now.

Goodness. I am such a pathetic master.

Th-That is not true!

The world items were collected through the hard work of the supreme beings.

I believe their worth far surpasses our own!

Albedo, let me explain my silence to your words.

I plan to fight with Shalltear by myself.

Because of that, I don't know if I'll come back alive.

Please wait!

I understand fighting against Shalltear!

Leaving her as she is would be most foolish!

But if that is the case! We should crush her with our numbers!

Why must you fight her alone?!

That's not it, Albedo.

It's just...

Well,

there are three reasons.

The first is because I have doubts that I am an adequate ruler.

Thinking logically, if I thought there was a chance other Yggdrasil players were here,

I should have thought about the existence of world items.

Does someone this foolish deserve to be a ruler?

Your existence here in itself has worth, Lord Ainz!

And we may be lacking, but we will support you completely!

The second reason is because there is a high chance this is a trap.

A trap?

Enemies could be lying in wait with Shalltear as bait.

In that case, they will be wary of hidden forces if I appear alone.

And the last reason.

I will kill Shalltear.

If that's the case! If that's the case, I will go!

I will kill Shalltear!

Do you have any chances of winning?

Shalltear is strong. That's why it has to be me.

I am the only person who can beat Shalltear one-on-one in Nazarick.

True, you may be able to beat her with your equipment, Lord Ainz.

On top of being physically optimized for battle, Shalltear is also a holy magic caster strong against the undead.

In other words, I'm at a disadvantage.

Is that what you want to say?

I am afraid so.

Your way of thinking is correct.

But it is also wrong at the same time.

It seems your knowledge of things is only as we inputted.

What do you mean?

I will show you that you do not call me the supreme overlord of Nazarick without reason.

I will not lose against someone who just depends on ability alone.

And, most importantly, Peroroncino-san and I were close friends.

In other words, the battle has been decided before it has even begun.

I will no longer try to stop you.

Just, please promise me that you will definitely return.

I promise you.

I will defeat Shalltear and return to this place.

Don't you gimme your love 'n passion!

Believe in love, even though there're borders and disturbance and more

I'm the only one who loves you

Because I'm crazy about you

Let's ride to hell, tsuijuu shite Go!

Let's ride to hell – I'll serve you as we go!

issho nara mushiro shinitai janai?

If we're together, I might not mind dying right here and now!

It's like a paradise and haven and more

You're the only man who I love

In my life and destiny and all

Don't you give me your love and passion?

I know the border. It should be wrecked, go

Next Episode

What meaning is there to a ruler who cannot protect his subjects?

Faced with Shalltear's hollow gaze,

proof of her being under complete control,

I reflect on my own foolishness as I activate my ultimate, over rank spell.

Shalltear, strongest of guardians.

Let us begin this battle

with our lives on the line, shall we?
