Overlord: Ancient one Chapter 73

Arthur was in the throne room, and below him were the Guardians and Co-Guardians of each floor—Shalltear, Tatsumaki, Angrboda, Cocytus, Esdeath, Aura, Mare, Demiurge, Albedo and Aurora—except the Gurdian of the 4th floor and 8th floor and the Co-Guardian of 7th and 8th floor—Antares and Rory.

He signaled to his kneeling subordinates to rise.

He placed both elbows on his table and meshed his hands, covering the lower half of his face.

He peeked at Demiurge and Albedo.

As the absolute ruler of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, Arthur had to adopt an attitude that matched the expectations of the NPCs.

While he did agree to Friday about walking his own path and building his own story, that doesn't mean he can lay back and put all the burdensome work on his subordinate shoulders.

No, what he aims to become is something that is awe-inspiring, something new, something cool.

"I have submitted a report to Albedo for you all to read; I hope you all have had the chance to do so." Arthur's voice pierced the silence of the empty hall.

Alongwith his words, a reply also came.

"Yes, My Lord, We have received the report about your wonderful plan that you have put into motion." Demiurge said as he was followed by Esdeath.

"Ancient-sama, I fear to offend, but aren't you moving too quickly?" Esdeath asked as the rest of the guardians attention went in her direction. Content orıginally comes from 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽

Arthur glanced at the other Guardians. They all seemed to have the same doubts.

"Too Quickly? Explain, Esdeath." Arthur asked.

"Yes, as per your orders, Demiurge has informed me of your ambition to stand against the supposed gods of this world and conquer the world. However, if you intend to dominate the world, wouldn't it be better to create a thorough plan and take things slowly?"

Hearing Esdeath's question, all the Guardians turned to Arthur.

World domination? Why would I do something like that? If I had that much time on my hands, I'd just wander around Nazarick. Or better, I can fulfill my duty as an incubus. Of course Arthur couldn't say that, so he replied with an answer that is convincing for all the Guardians present here.

"What you pointed out was indeed correct. If we are going to conquer the world, we need to make a thorough plan and even use tactics like civil war and other strategies to weaken our opponents. While doing this, we need to make sure to keep ourselves hidden well enough to not let any information about us get published. Otherwise, we will become part of history. We couldn't even fully bloom because we would have been cut off before that."

"If we are going to conquer the world, that is." Arthur said.

"If we are going to conquer the world?" Esdeath questioned as Demiurge followed after her.

"My Lord, isn't world dominance your ultimate goal? Isn't that why you told me to build an army alongside Esdeath?" Demiurge asked, confusion was clearly visible in his face.

"No, Demiurge, world domination was never part of my plan to begin with."

"Then, my lord, may I ask why you need an army? Although you have personally informed me of your goals, I am unable to understand your infinite wisdom. Please enlighten this foolish one." Demiurge bowed down deeply, as he was extremely embarrassed to even face his lord.

"Demiurge, do you know what my friends call me?" Hearing Arthur's question, Demiurge ran his brain at full capacity, trying to recall all the relevant information about the Ancient One, the current ruler of Nazarick. His knowledge of the last Supreme being was limited to only rumors. Suddenly, Demiurge remembered what Aurora had said when they were on the 6th floor.

—Ancient One and Lord Ulbert both participated in the match to prove they were the greatest 'chuuniyobes.' On that day, both Ulbert-sama and Ancient-sama unleashed their auras and defeated all other Supreme Beings—

Both Ancient-sama and Ulbert-sama are fighting for the title 'Chuuniyobe'. As Ulbert-sama has already been given the title 'Demon of Great Disaster', this means Chuuniyobe is related to destruction. Since both Ancient-sama and Ulbert-sama are competing for this title, it implies that the alas possess significant power that cannot be ignored. Demiurge thought.

"Lord of Chuunibyou, My Lord. That is the title you have been known for." Demiurge spoke proudly as a large smile appeared on his face.

But that was not the case for Arthur; when Demiurge brought out the term 'Chuunibyou' he nearly slipped down from the throne. With a rather shaking tone, Arthur asked.

"W-Where did you hear that term, Demiurge?" Arthur asked, He don't want his dark past to hunt him.

"From Aurora, My Lord. She was telling how you defeated Lord Ulbert and earned the title of 'Lord of Chuunibyou'. Even now, I still don't know the power such a title bears. But I hope this answer will satisfy your question."

Satisfy my question. More like it drains my ability to think for a second. Oh, how am I going to tell him not to call that? Should I ask Friday for help? No, She will make fun of me. Damn it, It seems shit is something I have to take care of myself.

"Demiurge, the title 'Lord of Chuunibyou' is not something I deserve. Even though, for unknown circumstances, I have battled against Ulbert, the title 'Lord of Chuunibyou' always belongs to Ulbert, so please don't call me that." Arthur's sounded almost like begging at the end of the sentence.

"You are too kind, My Lord. But I will keep your words in mind." Demiurge said. Arthur let out a sigh of relief after hearing Demiurge.

"Now then, where were we? Ah, yes,—"
