14 「Times」 (2/2)

”I see...” Momon said as he completely understood this course of action. Though now he understood he made a bad choice, but it turned out he wasn't the only one who made it.

”I'm very sorry.” He bowed his upper body to Momon and Cipher once more.

”hm? You didn't do anything wrong, did you?” Momon asked, Cipher felt as if he was making fun of the boy. The boy felt guilty for deception, but he didn't seem to be indulging in his guilt.

”Huh?” Looking up at him, Nphirea blinked a few times in surprise.

”The Request was a way to connect with me, us, right? Is there a problem with that? And even if you learned how to make the potion, what were your plans for it?”

”Huh!? I didn't think that far!” Nphirea was quick to panic in the wave of the calm inquisition from Momon. ”I just wanted the knowledge.”

”I see...” Momon kept his gaze on the young man before speaking once more. ”It's another story if you wanted to use it for evil. Otherwise there is nothing wrong with wanting to know.” He'd assure him without chastising him for the manipulation.

”You're amazing. I can see why Enri admires you...” Nphirea couldn't help but blush and smile up at the man with this awkward smile across his lips.

”By the way, are you the only one who knows that I'm Ainz?”

”Yes, I haven't told anyone!”

”I see, that's good. Right now, I am a normal adventurer named Momon.”

”Normal he says,” Cipher snickered slightly.

”More normal than this man here,” Momon said as he pointed to Cipher who was keeping suppressed laughter to himself.

”I'd be happy if you didn't forget that.” Momon continued to talk to him though, making sure the boy knew that he wanted his identity to remain a secret.

”Yes, I thought that's how you'd want it. Still, thank you for saving Enri and this Village.” He then turned his head to look over Cipher, wondering what he was going to do with the wall, but bowed to Ainz either way.

”Lord Ainz, I am sorry,” Nabe made her reappearance with a bow of her head towards her Master.

”That's right. It's because you spoke Albedo's name.”

”I will apologize with my life!” In that instant she drew her weapon and was about to commit by self-decapitation. However the moment the blade was about to touch her supple neck, she couldn't move it.

Her dark eyes immediately locked onto the two fingers belonging to Cipher who was holding the weapon still. She couldn't even make it budge and he wasn't moving.

”It's fine!” Momon assured her which immediately caused her sharp dark eyes to calm. ”Everyone makes mistakes.”

Seeing the wisdom of his words, and heeding them, she would watched as Cipher released the blade form his hold and she quickly returned it to her scabbard.

”You just need to make an effort nto to make the same mistake again. All your mistakes have been forgiven, Narberal Gamma.” Momon turned his body to face his underling.

She wore a frown, but those eyes shined with the admiration of a thousand suns. It was clear she would do anything and everything he wanted, or desired.

Cipher however was now standing before both of them, their eyes locked on him.

”Momonga, I have reached a decision.”

”Oh?”

”I would like to merge the Blue Citadel with the Guild of Ainz Ooal Gown.”

His eyes shining brightly, even visible through the opening in his helmet, Momon nodded.

Both of them opened their Guild Interfaces and configured their settings, forming the pact which bind them together for as long as they were able to coexist.

The moment the two became one, the could now view each others Guild rosters and the like.

”I would like to move the Citadel to Carne Village. I can restructure the houses on my own.”

”Restructure the houses?” Momon looked over him, knowing he probably wanted to bring the Citadel over in order to quickly place the walls around the place.

”Yes. To fit the theme.”

Momon nodded slightly, knowing very well the architectural theme of the Citadel was from feudal Japan. He was sure this guy had plenty of items he could use in order to do this and pull it off without a hitch.

”As you see fit.”

”Understood,” Cipher said with a grin across his lips before looking in the general direction of the Tomb of Nazarick.

”Aura is waiting in the Great Forest of Tob.”

”Oh?” This immediately drew back his attention as he smiled faintly. ”I'll regroup with the others, and then I'll join you.”

That's when he had vanished just as he arrived, resurfacing before Ninya and the Goblins now awaiting them in the Village Square.

Nabe raised a brow, ”Lady Aura is here?”

Momon nodded, ”We are here to spread my Great Name, aren't we?”
