Chapter 502: The plot begins, the first encounter in Carne Village!

~7 min read 1,388 words

Although Lakyus was holding the magic sword "Kilineiram" at that time, Shengzai still defeated the other party with a knight's longsword he was used to practicing with.

And it was also because of this reason that shortly after Lakyus went home, Shengzai, who was confused, learned that he and Lakyus had been engaged.

In all fairness, Lakyus is very beautiful, even comparable to Renner, who is known as the "Golden Princess."

But because they grew up together, Shengzai just treated Lakyus as a younger sister. Now that he was inexplicably engaged, it was really hard for him to accept.

And he is still so young, having finally transmigrated into a different world with multiple races, and he hasn't even experienced the customs of various races yet, and he is about to enter the grave of marriage in advance?

Thinking that Lakyus is about to return to the royal capital, and the other party will likely come to him for a competition again, and then the little jealous Renner is not indifferent on the surface, but is secretly tripping him up, Shengzai can't help but have a headache.

"It's better to find a reason to leave the royal capital temporarily. It just so happens that I have powerful strength now, so I can go out to adventure and break through my own level limit.

Whether Ainz is an enemy or a friend is hard to say now, but only powerful strength is the best bargaining chip for negotiation."

When going to the royal palace to express his intention to go out to Ramposa III, the old King couldn't help but show a look of hesitation on his face.

In all fairness, Shengzai is not only the genius warrior of the entire kingdom, but also the pride of Ramposa III.

If Shengzai was born of a legitimate line, he would probably hand over the throne to Shengzai without hesitation.

Unfortunately, it is a pity that Shengzai was born of a concubine, even if his talent and ability are top-notch, but once he inherits the throne, the nobles in the country will collectively oppose it. This is a system problem.

Although Ramposa III is mediocre in quality, he has been King for so many years, and he is not completely muddled and incompetent.

Shengzai's excellence has aroused the fear and dissatisfaction of his two royal brothers, and he also sees it in his eyes.

So when Shengzai expressed his desire to leave the royal capital, Ramposa III was actually refusing in his heart.

He was very worried that his other two sons would take advantage of Shengzai leaving the royal capital to be unfavorable to Shengzai.

If his most trusted Warrior Captain Gazef was there, he could let him accompany Shengzai to go out, so that Shengzai's safety would be more guaranteed.

But the point of the problem is that yesterday, the kingdom heard that the empire seemed to have actions that violated their borders, so he sent Gazef out.

Speaking unintentionally, listening intentionally.

When hearing that Gazef was sent out because of the imperial army at the border, Shengzai was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of seriousness and looked at Ramposa III in front of him: "Father, is the place where Warrior Captain was sent to a place called Carne Village in the northwest of the continent?"

Seeing Shengzai, whose expression suddenly became nervous and heavy, Ramposa III was a little puzzled, but also truthfully said: "It is indeed the northwest of the continent, and I also heard that there is a small village nearby, but whether it is called Carne Village, I don't know very well."

Carne Village is just a small border village, it is normal for Ramposa III, the King of the Kingdom, not to know.

But after hearing key words such as the northwest of the continent, the border of the kingdom, the empire, and the Slane Theocracy, and Gazef, Shengzai could already guess that this was the beginning of the plot.

"Warrior Captain is in danger. The people who offended the kingdom's border this time are not imperial soldiers at all, but the Slane Theocracy disguised as imperial soldiers.

They are deliberately luring Warrior Captain to go there, after all, they intend to kill him, I must go over immediately!"

After leaving such a sentence, Shengzai didn't give Ramposa III time to react, directly left the palace, and rode a fast horse to Carne Village.

The troops prepared by the Slane Theocracy to kill Gazef were nothing in Shengzai's eyes. What he cared about was Ainz and Albedo who descended on Carne Village for the first time.

After leaving the royal capital, Shengzai disliked the horse for running too slowly, so he directly used his ability to disguise his appearance, and put on a mask.

As a stream of air wrapped around his feet, the next second, accompanied by the ground being instantly kicked to pieces, Shengzai's body suddenly erupted at a speed that ordinary people could not capture at all!

At the same time, in the northwest of the continent, near the junction of the Kingdom, the Empire, and the Theocracy, in a village called Carne Village, a group of soldiers wearing imperial armor were being slaughtered by a tall Death Knight.

In the Great Tomb of Nazarick, it can only serve as small fry, but in this world, it is a super strong monster comparable to humans in the "Hero realm."

The Theocracy soldiers who had slaughtered the villagers of Carne Village like killing chickens and dogs before, were now also being slaughtered like ants in front of the Death Knight.

"It's really weak. Is it because the soldiers of this country are too weak, or is the level of this world just like this?"

Ainz and Albedo, who arrived at Carne Village, stood on the side and watched the Death Knight slaughtering the Theocracy soldiers, with no waves in their hearts, and even commented on the strength of the soldiers.

Because he had just transmigrated from the game to this different world, Ainz did not dare to be too arrogant. After disguising the Great Tomb of Nazarick to a certain extent, the first thing he thought of was to collect information about this world.

After seeing Carne Village facing a military disaster through the "Clairvoyance" magic, Ainz, with the idea of collecting information, appeared here with Albedo.

Inexplicably coming to a strange world, it is inevitable to maintain vigilance against everything, so when encountering Theocracy soldiers disguised as the Empire, Ainz did not take action directly, but chose to use summoned objects to test the reality of the other party.

But the final result was somewhat beyond his expectations.

That is, the people here are too weak. The Death Knight, who is only level 35 but has an attack power of only level 25, is actually completely crushing the human army of this world.

Facing the mechanical slaughter of the Death Knight, the Theocracy soldiers who invaded Carne Village soon collapsed mentally and began to flee in a panic.

A soldier who looked like a noble descendant of the Theocracy suddenly bumped into a figure wearing white full-body armor while running away.

"Ding——————!"

The Death Knight received the order to kill the soldiers who invaded Carne Village, so at this moment, it did not choose to show mercy because there was one more person, but cleanly swung its greatsword.

However, the attack that could easily slaughter Theocracy soldiers this time encountered obstacles, and the figure standing in front of the Death Knight at this moment only stretched out a finger and completely blocked the Death Knight's downward slash.

"Save me, I can give you a lot of gold coins..."

Looking at Shengzai who easily blocked the Death Knight's attack, this Theocracy soldier seemed to see the dawn.

And just as he opened his mouth to beg Shengzai to take action to save him and promised to pay Shengzai a reward, before he finished speaking, the long knife in Shengzai's hand had already crossed his neck, and accompanied by a large amount of blood splashing, his headless corpse also fell directly into the pool of blood.

"When you were wantonly slaughtering the villagers, did you ever care about their cries for help?"
