Chapter 171 New Piece’s

"Ainz sama, let us destroy the kingdom and avenge the Demiurge and Shalltear." Cocytus said, showing his warlike personality,Ainz stopped looking at him, then glanced at the remaining guardians, they were also looking at him with an expression as if waiting for his orders.

'Damn, if I reject them now, it will reduce my image in their hearts, but I can't take a risk; if I lose them also, then what can I do alone in this dangerous world?' His brain ran at high speed, even labeling the world dangerous.

"Ahem, I know you all are anxious for revenge, but haste will make waste. We should stay low-key and find out the cause of Demiurge and Shalltear disappearance, and then deal with it accordingly." Ainz solemnly spoke.

'As expected of the Supreme Being, he knows how to contain his emotions and deal with the situation wisely,' Cocytus thought, then nodded and replied, "Yes, Lord Ainz."

"Albedo, secure the Nazarick, and we will stay low in the tomb for a while. Also, Pandora, you go and find the cause in Re-Estize. Your disguise ability is good for this purpose. Don't engage in a fight; just run away if you encounter a strong opponent. I will go with Nabe; there is a change of plan; Momon will leave the Re-Estize, I am changing our target to the Baharuth Empire." Ainz then instructed seriously,

"Yes, Lord Ainz," Albedo and Pandora's spoke respectfully, then left. Other floor guardians also left the theater and returned to their respective floors.

…

Soon, time passed.

A few days later,

The capital street of Arwinter, Baharuth Empire.

Eero and Ada were moving through the street, looking at the happy and confident citizens around them, different from Re-Estize. The citizens here are more cheerful and proud, as if they have a great future ahead of them.

"Brother, no matter how many times I see them, they remind me of my residence on Future Corporation Island in our world," Ada commented in amazement.

Eero nodded then said, "Indeed, it's all because the current Emperor Jircniv. Also, known as the "Bloody Emperor" for his forcing incapable nobles from power, his valuing of the talent of all citizens, and his social reforms, which had an incredible impact on the Empire. The nation is gaining power through magical research and military improvements."

Eero explained and then glanced at the people around. He then added with a smile, "Most importantly, He learned all these reforms from the Golden Princess of Re-Estize; soon you will see that kingdom similar to this Empire."

Ada, surprised, then realized and spoke, "So you were praising her wisdom for this."

Eero glanced at her speechlessly. 'So all these days's, she was thinking about that.' shook his head helplessly.

Soon they reached near an inn, looking at the citizens very respectfully to the soldiers around them.

They walked inside the inn and booked a room.

Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace, Emperor Jircniv Rune Farlord El-Nix has an intelligence report on the attack on the capital of Re-Estize.

Jircniv believes that with the kingdom in the exhausted state it is in following these events, they may not need to wage the annual war, and as they gained information so easily, the Golden Queen must have been very busy dealing with the aftermath.

He then orders Fluder to investigate those demons while also having answers on the Era Adventurer party and the mysterious Ainz Ooal Gown who saved Gazef, believing some hidden heroes and villains have come out of hiding.

The Emperor theorizes these are the initial happenings of a great battle, similar to the war with the Evil Deities 200 years prior. With the Emperor's Four Imperial Knights giving their respective inputs, Fluder concludes the conversation with some news on his investigation with Ainz Ooal Gown.

...

While inside the Re-Estize Royal Palace, Renner glanced at Climb, then asked, "Climb, have you sent the bait information to the Baharuth Empire?"

Climb nodded. "Yes, your majesty, I have replaced the spy with one of ours."

"Okay, what about those nobles'?" Renner then asked.

"All those nobles are beheaded and their territories are confiscated. Now only the announcement of good news for re-establishment remains." Climb replied concisely.

"Well, you can go and keep an eye on Brain and Gezef." Renner then gave an eviction order and also reminded,

"Yes, your majesty." Climb nodded. He left the room and walked toward the palace tower.

After a while,

Gazef and Brain duel against each other, while Climb observes the fight in the castle tower. But as Gazef disarms Brain, causing him to fall back, the head warrior notes the improvement in skill of his old rival.

Brain notes: Their circumstance makes that compliment sound more like patronizing. After giving praise to Brain, Climb excuses himself to return to his duties.

Gazef asks if he has anywhere to go, and Brain replies that it is his day off. Gazef was surprised that Brain was made a direct subordinate of Renner.

…


After staying for a while inside the inn,

Eero left the Ada and asked her to survey the whole Baharuth Empire. He himself visited the singing apple pavilion.

After looking around, he found his target, a four-person team sitting on a table discussing something.

Eero glanced at the half-elf with a flat chest and waist; one could misunderstand her as a man; her name is Imina; and there was also another female sitting beside her.

She is Arche, a young woman in her adolescence with a petite build, short bob-cut blonde hair with straight bangs, and blue eyes. She possessed an elegant beauty and delicate, doll-like features.

There are two men in front of them; one is a senior-age person known as Roberdyck.

Roberdyck has blonde hair and blue eyes, a neatly arranged hairstyle, and a beard that is thoroughly trimmed. His appearance is that of a wise man who gives off a hearty impression.

He wears full body armor with an outer garment embroidered with the symbol of a crest. A morning star is hoisted on his waist, and a necklace bearing the same crest as his outer garment can be seen hanging from his neck.
