Chapter 275 - 3: Soul Split & Creating The Overlord Plane! (1/2)
Another A/N here.
Just setting more expectations now. There WILL be a Yggdrasil arc! It will cover Nao's rise to lvl100, maybe even past 100 if he finds hidden limits breaking features.
Interactions with Momonga and the original Nine's Own Goal gang. Nao may even join them before he splits away to create his own!
Base and guild creation. Monster grinding. Raids and World bosses. World item hunting, 500 yen gacha rolling. Exploring Yggdrasil in what it has to offer.
Why? Simple. I find the game itself to be enjoyable and its lore despite what little was shown of it thus far, and it has a lot of unknowns to explore!
As such, I'm blocking off at least 50 chapters for this arc, tentatively. It could be more, it could be less, I don't know. Also expect Overlord Volume Two won't be as long as DBZ was, it is only one huge continent after all.
Also when exactly do you guys want to see Vol 1.5 with Aht's scene? We reached the milestone by a long shot, so either let me know here or down below!
One more thing to note there is a light lemon scene ahead, you guys have been warned!
But enough from me, don't forget to use those power stones, leave comments below and enjoy the chap!

Rebirth's Void Space, White Palace.
Another day soon passed even though Nao couldn't tell the time of day in here. He had tested it out as well, and turns out time actually didn't exist in this place! Only space did. This was just unique to the Void Space itself though, as time still flew on as normal in the planes themselves.
So while Nao and the girls didn't age here, those residing in the planes themselves would still age. Nao was especially glad he did the farewell banquet after learning about this, since he didn't test it out the last time he came here.
But for some reason his internal clock could still tell when the next day was, despite having no use here. At the moment, Nao could be seen sitting in a lotus position closer to the edge of the bed, eyes closed.
Tights, Vados and Towa could be seen next to Nao off to the right, enjoying some tea and dessert. Even though Towa was only around for a short while, she took a liking to this and made it her past time.
The other girls could be seen deeper within the bed, either making light m.o.a.ning or snoring sounds, absorbed in their own world or in dream land. Strangely enough Caulifla and Kale were nowhere to be seen.
Nao, while in meditation, found these sounds music to his ears. He could even hear the two female Saiyans making muffled m.o.a.ns coming straight out of the bathroom with its two sliding doors shut.
Nao knew this would happen eventually between the two. Especially after in the last couple days where Kale announced her love for Caulifla, even if it was just the slip of a tongue. He did not want to take away these feelings the two shared for each other. Caulifla had both accepted Nao, and Kale.
So to not go against their wishes, Nao let them do as they please. Kale was surprised by this, and started to feel admiration toward Nao. Little did she know Caulifla would take advantage of this, only to get Kale ready for Nao to take her first time!
And even on top of that, both Caulifla and Kale were soul bound to Nao, they had nowhere to retreat now. They were stuck with him from here on to the years to come.
More time soon began to pass as the m.o.a.ning coming further from inside the bed died down. The other girls who were still sleeping soon stirred awake. As for Nao, he was fully concentrated on his meditation. Michael actually sat beside him, also meditating! He wanted to be fully ready for what was to come next, undergoing his first Soul Split! Rebirth constantly warned him it would be excruciatingly painful splitting his soul for the first time and only after going through the first experience would the latter times become easier.
Yet before he wanted to perform it, he was mainly waiting for Caulifla and Kale to finish enjoying their special moment together. Nao could sense the other girts were awake now. Another hour or so passed as Caulifla's and Kale's m.o.a.ns intensified. In the beginning, Kale's voice echoed inside of it, calling out her big sister but as time went on the way she called Caulifla's name changed, and she started calling out her name directly. Her voice only got louder before all of a sudden, a plopping sound echoed from the bathroom, and the m.o.a.ning stopped altogether.
Following that was the sound of water rushing for another good several minutes, before the sliding doors opened and white mist poured out from inside. It soon revealed two n.a.k.e.d muscled female Saiyans, both with wet hair. Caulifla came out first, only to see the girls with smiles as they saw the two.
Nao also concluded his meditation at this time, and opened his eyes. His eyes landed on Caulifla, who he saw a n.a.k.e.d Kale slung over Caulifla's shoulders. Her black hair wasn't tied in a ponytail and was flown down her neck. She was rather pretty this way, and a blissful smile could be seen on her face. She had her eyes closed, and could be seen sleeping away in Caulifla's embrace as she dr.a.p.ed her arms over Caulifla's shoulders.
No one said anything as Caulifla calmly flew up a couple feet, landing deeper into the bed. She gently laid Kale onto the bedding, only to tuck her in. She didn't know when Kale would wake up so she decided to wrap her in the bed's covers. The girls then saw Caulifla approach Nao, only to wrap her arms around his shoulders, letting her b.r.e.a.s.ts press up against his back. A soft wet sensation soon spread around it while Caulifla spoke with a smile.
”I really thank you for doin' this, Nao. Kale finally came forth with her feelin' for me, and didn't back away. I just gave her the time of her life right now, haha!”, Caulifla said as she brought her lips to Nao's cheeks, and kissed him.
”Glad you two were able to enjoy that time together. This is not over though, you know that right?”
”Oh I sure do. I'm goin' to rock your world once we're settled into this next place you're taking us. I'll make it so you won't even be able to stand up anymore!”
Hearing that, Nao's face beamed into a smile. He then snuggled his face against Caulifla's face, who didn't back away. He felt her large spiky hair that was wet prickle against it.
”I'll take that as a challenge, then! I did tell you guys some stuff already but there is one important thing to discuss after the plane is created. But first thing is I need to go through my first Soul Split next. Otherwise I won't be able to create the plane. Can you go round everyone up, Caulifla?”
”Got it, darlin'.”, Caulifla responded happily. She then parted ways from him, heading further inside the bed, passing by the sleeping Kale.
As she left, Towa couldn't help but retort while a glint of light streaked across her eyes as she observed Nao.
”You really are a pervert, aren't you?”, Towa said with a chuckle.
Nao's expression became calm after hearing Towa's remark.
”You're just now realizing that?”
”Not exactly. I knew it from when I met the rest of you. I'm looking forward to teasing you and Chronoa even more now, hoho.”, Towa responded with another laugh.
”Still, you best get ready yourself. The place we're heading to is unique at the very least. Have you ever tried out virtual reality?”
”Virtual reality? Can't say that I have. I know a few races here and there who dabble in its sciences though. Is this what we're going to be venturing into?”
”Partly. We will be re-imaging ourselves inside that virtual reality world, only for our souls to merge with these created characters and transfer them to our true destination. Sounds fun, doesn't it?”
”A world virtually built that has the capability to translocate souls into another area? That does sound pretty fun, even though such a thing should be theoretically impossible. You can definitely count me in. I'll be looking forward to destroying more fools that dare oppose us.”
”...You just had to say that, didn't you? Well I won't stop you. Just remember once the transfer happens, we'll be thousands of times more stronger than the regular folks over there. Do be careful when taking action okay?”
”I'll give no promises to that~”, Towa said as her lips curved upward into a grin.
Nao could only sigh at this time. Reasoning was Towa was proving to be useless, despite the contract they formed. She liked to go at things in her own ways from the looks of it.
But he didn't speak anymore, and slowly got up from the bed. He saw Caulifla round up the rest of the girls and saw everyone get dressed. More time soon passed before he realized it, and the girls now looked at him with anticipation in their eyes.
Standing on the cold white marble with his bare feet, Nao spoke out with a commanding tone directly at Rebirth.
”It is time, everyone. Rebirth, please initiate Soul Split.”
[Acknowledged. Please be advised host will experience true pain. Please bear it as your body deconstructs back down into its soul]
After Nao said that, he heard Rebirth ding off inside his head, as well as Miya's. Those who were soul bound also heard this notification sound off inside their heads as well, receiving curious looks. Yet what they saw next was Nao's body start to glow a bright golden light.
Nao felt really calm and peaceful during the beginning of the Soul Split. He could feel his Divine Energy roam throughout his body as if it was trying to find a certain area inside it. Before long he actually saw it condense directly around his heart. It started to expand as well, It didn't take long before it became a visible bright golden sphere inside is body.
And then the pain started. It started light, only causing Nao to wince his eyes. The girls started to hold their breaths witnessing Nao's body turn brighter and brighter, only to start deconstructing!
It was as if Nao's body became pixilated. Piece by piece, starting from Nao's head, it started to crumble away. Mere moments passed as the pain intensified. It soon became ear curdling screeches, but surprisingly, the girls no longer heard Nao's voice. They saw him scream out in silence, which only caused them more worry. Yet not much more time passed before they no longer saw his head.
The rest of his body soon started to de-pixilate as well. Nao felt far more pain than he did from his past battles combined, but he persevered.
No blood was shed either. An unknown amount of time passed as the golden sphere of light inside his body expanded out further and further, deconstructing his body. His body was soon replaced by this said golden sphere of light. It was extremely l.u.s.ter, causing the girls to become surprised. Towa looked on with an interested look, seeing Nao's soul come into play.
But the pain didn't end there. Nao no longer had his body, but if he did, he wouldn't be able to feel it anymore. Having a million fire ants crawling around his body was now an understatement. The bright light died down, letting the girls witness the golden sphere in front of them.
It stood motionless in place, before they started to see it 'tug'. It kept tugging and soon tore apart, creating another visible sphere as it stretched away from the first one. Nao's mind wanted to pass out at this time but he knew it was at the most crucial part, and he went into hyper focus. Inch by inch did this second soul form.
More time began to pass as this second golden sphere parted ways from the first one. It became visible to the girls and looked identical t the first one. The process didn't stop there, as the pixels started to reconstruct not one but two bodies. It essentially entered a giant whirlpool of rainbow light.
