The more I think about it, the stranger it is.
I can't tell what era or setting these ruins are from.
That means there's a high chance we'll stumble across something interesting.
There's no mistake about that.
Everyone, there is also the chance that a terrifying undead lurks within.
But, I'm a bit excited.
True. I wonder why this tomb was created and what kind of person was buried here.
Right. It's always exciting finding out about the unknown.
And it would make me happy if there was a lot of money inside.
Huh? What?
Yeah, I'm sure it will be our best job yet.

Once all the teams have reached their positions,
we will start simultaneously at the signal.
We will enter from four different points, explore each small mausoleum,
then meet up at the central mausoleum.
Yes.
No problem.
Understood.
The effect of Invisibility barely lasted.
It lasted long enough.
Let's go.
There do not seem to be traps.
Continual Light.
Hm, does anyone here have knowledge of the crest before us?
No, I don't know of it.
Is it possibly a crest that existed before the Kingdom?
By the way, Leader, why don't you stop talking like that?
We're the only ones here now.
Yes...
Man, I'm so exhausted!
Talking like a hardass that way. I feel stupid.
Thanks for your hard work.
It's fine if you talk like normal when it's just us.
Naw, I can't do that.
That kind of formal talk makes us look more like talented workers.
It's a pain to switch back and forth.
You know that talking like that is my policy when we're in the middle of a job.
Now, let us all move forward.
Yeah!
This crest is woven with threads made of precious metals!
Does that mean this one item is already worth tens of gold coins?
Should we take it now?
That is much too voluminous to transport.
Let us deal with the main task at hand first.
Gringham, you took a while.
My apologies. I have made you all wait.
We didn't decide a rendezvous time, so it's no problem.
I wish to ask... did your team uncover treasures?
There was quite a lot... exhilarating!
Elder Parpatra also said the same.
You all as well? It was right to come to this tomb.
So, this is the point where all the teams start exploring the lower floors, but...
The stench of the dead.
Yeah, that's right.
It's the same smell that often fills our nostrils at the Katze plains.
I have a proposal for all of you.
My team and I will go back out and look for any secret entrances.
There is still a chance that there are other routes inside.
The elder speaks the truth.
There may be a safe route that leads us directly to the center of the tomb.
So, in exchange for taking a loss, we'd like to have a share of your discoveries.
Let's see... about ten percent from each team.
Also, will you give us first chance at the lower floor tomorrow if a route is found?
We have no qualms.
Us, too.
Personally, I have some objections. Ten percent is not a problem.
Right, it's decided then!
However—
Be careful down there.
Though, if you find valuables, we wouldn't mind if you left them for us.
Well, let's head down.
Rober, is there an undead response from that corpse?
No, there is not.
I see.
This ruin is really a mystery.
This place may be more than 600 years old.
If so, this is truly a historical find.
Can we speed this along?
Personally, I want to hurry up and hunt down some monsters.
There's no way.
Hey, now. Are you serious?
Huh? Really? Just normal skeletons?
Now, no way. Skeletons are the weakest of monsters.
Got it! There's no monster ruling over this ruin!
Either that, or it's something incapable of grasping our strength.
Or maybe a fool who hasn't even realized that we've entered the tomb!
Not me.
Then, I shall go first.
Carelessness is folly!
Prepare yourselves for the possibility of a powerful undead
and move forth with care!
Goodness, they entered.
Yes, they did.
Even though they are workers, they are our comrades for this job.
I hope they come back safely. What do you think, Mr. Momon?
They'll all die, won't they?
Huh?
N-No! I just mean that they should have that kind of resolve.
These ruins are a new discovery.
There could be all kinds of dangers.
A foolish hope will just leave you hurt.
I see. That is what you meant.
Thank you for worrying about me!
Then, as planned, I will rest first.
Yes, please take your time.
Now, Nabe. No, Narberal.
I shall return to Nazarick.
I will send Pandora's Actor in my place.
Make sure to handle things if something happens.
Understood, Lord Ainz.
Then, I leave it to you.
Yes!
Welcome home, Lord Ainz.
I'm home, Albedo.
Intruders should now be entering, as planned.
How are the welcoming preparations?
We are fully prepared.
I am sure that our guests will enjoy what we have in store.
I see.
Albedo, I look forward to seeing the results of your hospitality.
Please look at these screens.
Looks like they've finally started to enter.
Albedo, do not let a single one of them go home unscathed.
Of course.
Please watch the fates of the foolish thieves
that have entered the abode of the venerable supreme beings.
Also, which group would you like to use as guinea pigs to test the new sword?
Ah, yes.
Well, that was really easy just now.
It was so easy that it creeps me out.
Shh!
How troublesome.
That skeleton mage can use first-tier magic.
It will be bothersome if it shoots attack magic from there.
And bows are not very effective against skeletons...
Let me take care of it.
Turn Undead!
Okay! Let's keep going!
Elder, that was such a waste.
We received priority for tomorrow.
It is not a complete loss for us.
To begin with, it's a bit too dangerous to be the first to enter an unknown dungeon.
They are our canary.
A level-headed decision.
Who are you all?
What shall we do, elder?
Same numbers on both sides. We may be able to manage.
But, maids at a tomb. That's some bad taste.
Let's kill them.
We should kill them.
We should not just kill them, but do it in a way that is indescribably painful.
Yes. Yes.
We were planning to kill them from the start.
Though, I'm happy that everyone is so motivated now.
Now, due to some certain circumstances, we cannot murder you directly.
It is unfortunate.
So, we would like to introduce you all to your opponent.
Come, Nazarick Old Guarders.
What?!
A pincer attack?
No, it looks like they truly have no plans to fight.
Magic weapons?
What an honor.
So many undead will be our opponents.
Though, I see. They must be the most powerful creatures in this ruin.
Seems I hit it on the nose.
Though to think, we ended up being the canaries. What a headache.
Elder, let's run. Those things are dangerous. Really dangerous.
The moment we got caught in a pincer we lost any chance of escape.
Push forward!
Well, that's one method to break through.
I am rooting for you.
Now, please begin.
Ooh, that's bad.
I did not expect them to be this bad.
Lord Cocytus is surprised as well.
At this rate, things will end without anything good happening.
Oh, no good. He's gonna die.
Mr. Priest, the warrior will die if you don't heal him quickly.
Impossible, death was instant.
And with that, their front line has been destroyed.
You've got to be kidding!
Oh, the thief is down, too.
Looks like the battle has been decided.
He looks delicious...
Stop. Our job is to retrieve those who can no longer fight.
Now, if they are still breathing, heal them and send them to the torture chamber.
The ones that have died... we shall report to Lord Ainz.
There's no way we can beat those!
The blessings of God can only get us so far!
Are they still chasing us?!
Yeah! They're still running after us!
Dammit!
Hey, a door!
This shitty tomb!
Wha—?!
Anyone here?
Here, Gringham.
No one else?
What the hell happened?
No way... Teleportation magic?
Shit! Let us hurry and escape.
No, escape shall be impossible.
Who is there?
I am Kyouhukou, the one who commands this area by decree of Lord Ainz.
Who in the world are you?
Hm. Should I introduce myself once again?
No, that is not what I mean.
Allow me to be frank. How about a trade?
I would like you to let us out of this place.
In exchange, we will give you whatever you want.
Hoh, a trade.
I am thankful for the two of you, so a trade does seem appealing...
Thankful?
What I desire is already in my hands.
I am doubtful you would be able to provide me with something better.
My family has grown tired of cannibalism.
As such, I am thankful for the two of you, who will be the solution.
Wha—?!
It is unfortunate that there are only two of you,
but please fill the bellies of my family.
Don't joke around! I'm going to live and go h...
So earnest. Then, let us have a second helping of him.
My, you're awake?
Did you sleep well?
Oh, my. There is no need to shrink so much with fear.
Well, then. You've been caught by us.
This is the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
The most honorable place in the world,
where the last one who remained, Lord Momon... I mean,
Lord Ainz, of the 41 supreme beings, resides.
That's right, Lord Ainz.
He is a wonderful man.
If he called me to his bed, I wouldn't mind giving him my first time.
That brat Shalltear and the piss-ugly Albedo are aiming for his heart,
but I'm definitely much more attractive.
Don't you think so?
I am the Tomb of Nazarick's special intelligence collector, Neuronist.
Well, some call me a torturer, too.
The supreme being who created me suffered from something called kidney stones.
As a sign of respect for that, we shall start with this.
We're going to be spending a lot of time together.
It'll be a problem if you start crying about something like this.
Why have you stopped? Keep walking.
U-Um, I can hear something.
Hear something?
You have finally come, have you?
Master intruder!
And you are?
Someone who was ordered to greet the intruders, I am.
This is to see the results of the test, it is.
Though, it seems you are too weak, you are.
What kind of magical creature is that?
I-I'm sorry.
It is a magical creature I do not know of.
You good for nothing!
Now, I have been told there is no problem if I kill you, I have.
Let us hurry up and fight, we shall.
Oh, they are all here to score my fight with you, they are.
They won't interfere so do not worry, that is.
Do those elves need not to prepare, need not?
There is no need. I alone am enough.
Then, here I come, I shall.
My name is Hamusuke!
You should say your name as well, you should.
There is no worth telling my name to a mere beast.
Then, I will erase you from memory as a fool without a name, I shall!
Martial Art, Shukuchi Kai.
You shitty bastard!
Martial Art, Ability Boost!
Greater Ability Boost!
Keep at a distance when the abilities of your opponent are unknown, was it?
However, I must fight as a warrior so this cannot be helped, it cannot!
Close range combat, it is.
Don't underestimate me, beast!
What?!
My tail is too strong for you, as I thought.
A-All of you, why are you just standing there?!
Cast some magic. Heal me!
Cast healing magic on me!
Middle Cure Wounds!
That's not enough! Cast enhancement magic on me!
Hurry it up!
To begin with, there is a physical difference between humans and magical beasts.
With this, I can overcome such a handicap.
To begin with, I do not mind if you all come at me at once, I do not.
It would be grand if we had a good battle that way, it would.
Shukuchi Kai!
Slashing Strike, it is!
M-My arms!
H-H-Heal me! Hurry!
A-All of you...
It is not in my taste to make another suffer, so I shall end it with this, I shall.
Huh?
Master Zaryusu, how was it?
Brilliant. That was truly an activation of the Martial Art, Slashing Strike.
That makes me so happy, it does!
I shall continue training to become Warrior Hamusuke, I shall!
What is that? Is that the way that elves mourn for the dead, is it?
I do not know...
Where are we?
As I thought, that thing was a magic trap.
Well, after the ground below our feet lit up, we ended up here.
This area looks pretty different from the others...
I have seen a place similar to this.
The colosseum of the Empire.
Yes, now that you mention it...
Then the arena must be just ahead.
Seems so.
Since we were teleported here, that can only mean one thing...

Outside?
We were teleported outside?
Then we can escape with fly mag...
Our challengers are four foolish humans that infiltrated the Great Tomb of Nazarick!
And against them, the master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick,
the Supreme One and the king of death,
Ainz Ooal Gown!
Next Episode
It causes me great displeasure allowing filthy thieves into Nazarick!
At the very least, I will make full use of them.
I decide to fight against Foresight for a certain experiment.
Then, the leader Hekkeran tells me that he received permission from a certain person.
No. Impossible...
Chapter 8, A Handful of Hope.
Atone for your foolishness with death!
