OVERLORD: The Second Supreme Being

E-Rantel, in the Sorcerer King's office. Albedo watched the battle between Peroroncino and Sorcerer King on the screen and slammed her fist heavily on the desk.

A huge crack appeared on the desk, and it continued to expand.

"Are you already impatient to test Lord Ainz's strength? Peroroncino, I will definitely kill you!"

Albedo's expression became extremely ferocious.

She immediately used a teleportation item to return to Nazarick.

She arrived on the 10th floor of Nazarick.

In a corner of the 10th floor of Nazarick, Albedo pressed a mechanism on the wall, and a secret room opened.

Inside the secret room was a dormant pod, within which lay Rubedo.

Her creator was Tabula Smaragdina, a setting fanatic.

He created three female NPCs in total.

The first was Nigredo, with messy, jet-black hair and a face that looked as if it had been skinned, making her particularly unpleasant to look at. Her weapon was a pair of scissors, and she had exceptional stealth, generally used for reconnaissance.

Although Nigredo's appearance wasn't attractive, she had a deep fondness for human children.

She was the type with an unattractive appearance but a beautiful soul.

The second NPC was Albedo, whose setting was extremely complicated. Due to the numerous settings, Albedo's personality was very twisted. This was because before the game servers shut down, Momonga modified Albedo's setting, placing the "Love for Momonga" trait as her top priority, which was why she remained relatively normal until now.

Due to her complicated setting, Albedo viewed things in extreme ways, especially regarding Peroroncino. She believed that Peroroncino returned before the server shutdown to seize the position of the ruler of Nazarick.

As events unfolded, Albedo became more and more certain of this.

Originally, in Tabula Smaragdina's design, Albedo was powerful, beautiful, but with a twisted personality. However, because Momonga modified the settings, it limited her distorted personality.

The third female NPC created by Emerald Dew was Rubedo.

She possessed extremely strong combat abilities, but her personality was terrible—strong subjective consciousness, unable to listen to others, and always acting based on her own ideas.

She was entirely self-centered in everything she did.

...

At this moment, Rubedo was quietly lying in the cryogenic chamber.

She wore a red bodysuit and had golden blonde hair.

She appeared to be a monk-like class.

Albedo knew very well the strength of Rubedo. She was created with the world-class item , which gave her an incredibly powerful heart. Rubedo had terrifying combat abilities and an extraordinary recovery rate.

Rubedo was an NPC that Tabula Smaragdina, Albedo's creator, had spent three months carefully crafting.

The three max-level players were unable to defeat Rubedo. Even Touch Me, the strongest player of the Ainz Ooal Gown guild, who possessed the world championship title, said that he couldn't easily defeat her.

Albedo approached the cryogenic chamber and shut down its operation.

Rubedo opened her eyes, her gaze incredibly sharp.

Albedo was certain, just from that one look, that she was no match for her.

"Is there something you need from me?" Rubedo's tone was extremely flat, as if she were speaking about something completely unrelated to her.

"I need you to kill someone for me," Albedo said.

"Why should I listen to you? The only one who can command me is my creator, Lord Tabula Smaragdina. You are not worthy."

"Don't you want to do something for Nazarick, to repay Lord Tabula Smaragdina?"

"Repaying Lord Tabula Smaragdina and doing something for Nazarick have nothing to do with each other.

Nazarick is just a place where Lord Tabula Smaragdina once stayed. Lord Tabula Smaragdina's last order was for me to stay here and guard the tenth floor of Nazarick." Rubedo's words made Albedo very angry.

"You..."

"Shut up, I don't want to hear it. Don't force me to take action and drive you away."

"What if killing that person could bring back Lord Tabula Smaragdina?"

Rubedo didn't speak, just stared at Albedo.

"Why should I believe you?"

"Because both of us were created by Lord Tabula Smaragdina. I also want to bring Lord Tabula Smaragdina back to Nazarick."

Rubedo hesitated for a long time before speaking:

"Who do you want me to kill?"

"Peroroncino, one of the Supreme Beings."

"Why would killing him bring Lord Tabula Smaragdina back?"

"Most of the Supreme Ones left in the past, and Peroroncino is the only one who returned. Perhaps he knows how to bring Lord Tabula Smaragdina back here," Albedo said.

"You're not completely sure, are you?"

"That's true, but why not give it a try? Maybe it will bring Lord Tabula Smaragdina back."

Rubedo fell silent. She was indeed moved by Albedo's words. Her only purpose in existence was to live for Lord Tabula Smaragdina.

Without Lord Tabula Smaragdina, she could only force herself into sleep using the dormant pod.

"Fine, I agree," Rubedo said.

"You will follow my plan."

"No problem."

........

Peroroncino and Sorcerer King stared at each other.

"Did you figure out whose attack hit first?" Peroroncino asked Sorcerer King.

"No, did you?"

"I didn't either!"

To verify, they called over Shalltear and Pandora, who were watching the battle.

"Shalltear, Pandora, did you two see whose attack hit first?" Peroroncino asked.

"We saw it," they both replied in unison.

"So, who hit first?"

"Lord Ainz!"

"Lord Peroroncino!"

Both of them spoke at the same time, but this time, the voices were different.

Shalltear said it was Peroroncino, while Pandora said it was Ainz.

"Are you sure you both saw it clearly?"

"Yes!" Both of them replied again.

"I'll contact Demiurge to ask," Sorcerer King said.

"Demiurge, you watched the battle just now, right?"

"Yes, Lord Ainz. The battle between the two Supreme Beings was truly spectacular. I have gained so much from it. Truly worthy of being Supreme Beings, so powerful!" Demiurge praised.

"Did you see clearly who landed the final blow?"

"I saw it clearly, it was Lord Peroroncino!"

"Looks like I won," Peroroncino said.

"Now, about the wager..."

Momonga took a locked treasure chest from the storage room. From the chest, he pulled out a diary.

"Here you go!"

Momonga was handing over his most valuable possession.

Peroroncino opened Momonga's diary.

"June 9th: Today I practiced my sitting posture in front of the mirror for an hour, and finally chose the one most suited for a king."

"June 10th: Today I practiced the gesture to make my subordinates quiet in front of the mirror for an hour. Hmm, it's perfect. I can't find a single flaw."

"June 11th: Yesterday, Mare complimented me, saying that my gesture to make my subordinates quiet was really cool. I'm so happy."

........

Peroroncino looked at the diary and wanted to laugh, but held it back.

Momonga silently put on his mask, fearing that others might see the expression on his face at that moment.
