Chapter 556: Ainz: Let

~7 min read 1,214 words

When Lakyus roared out these words, several guardians beside Ainz appeared beside Lakyus and her group in an instant.

Xia Xia Xia Tiya even reached out to press Lakyus's neck, but was suddenly stopped by Ainz.

Ainz, who had been sitting on the throne, stood up and, followed by Albedo, slowly walked to Lakyus.

Xia Xia Xia Tiya moved her body aside first and also stood behind Ainz, while Ainz looked at Lakyus with red light in his eyes and said: "You think we did something wrong?

Just as you humans slaughter monsters and raise livestock to slaughter for food, then why don't you feel that your own behavior is trampling on life?"

Facing Ainz's rhetorical question, Lakyus also argued strongly: "How can human life be compared to pigs, dogs, cattle, and sheep..."

But just as she hadn't finished speaking, Ainz reached out and rudely interrupted her: "But for us, you humans are just like the pigs and dogs in your eyes.

If it were you, would you choose to ignore the maggots that appear on your food?"

Facing Ainz's rhetorical question, Lakyus was stunned on the spot.

That's right, she had overlooked a very important thing. The creatures in front of them now, although they possessed intelligence and could communicate, were undead!

But even so, Lakyus still couldn't tolerate the practices of Ainz Ooal Gown and his group.

Lakyus was not a fool; she also knew that Ainz Ooal Gown letting them see those things was nothing more than to provoke them.

Lakyus also understood very well that, like Jircniv, choosing to endure humiliation was the most correct approach at this stage.

She didn't know the Imperial workers, and from the previous pictures, it was not difficult to see that these so-called "workers" were not all good people.

The "Dragon Hunt" team, who relied on their age to sell their age and wanted to use others as bait and test subjects.

The "Heavy Smasher" team, who were pretentious and actually extremely greedy.

The "Heavenly Martial" team, who were arrogant and abused and enslaved elves.

In general, these high-level workers of the Empire were actually all scumbags.

But when she saw the camaraderie of the "Four Armaments," Lakyus finally couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Ainz Ooal Gown, although I am powerless to refute what you just said.

But as a human, I still cannot approve of your practices. However, what I just said was only my personal behavior and has nothing to do with others.

So if you want to take action, I will accompany you, but I hope you don't implicate others."

Lakyus knew very well that with the style of these monsters, her words just now had undoubtedly put her on their death list.

And the strength of these monsters was not something she could resist.

She had to bear the consequences of her own words; Lakyus didn't want the others in "Blue Cang Cang Qiangwei" to die here, so she took all the blame on herself.

However, before Ainz could respond, the others in "Blue Cang Cang Qiangwei" directly refused.

Tia and Tina directly drew their weapons and took a fighting stance: "Since the ghost-headed leader is our leader, what you said naturally represents our entire team."

Gagaran also picked up her giant hammer and laughed loudly: "Tia and Tina are right. In fact, even if Lakyus hadn't said it just now, I was about to lose it."

Evileye: "I said before that nothing good would come from following you guys. I didn't expect that today we would really be killed by you."

Looking at the attitude of the others in "Blue Cang Cang Qiangwei," Lakyus was moved, and she also clenched her two magic swords.

Now she understood why she couldn't hold back her emotions when she saw the encounter of the "Four Armaments."

It was probably because she, like the girl named Arche, had a group of partners to whom she could entrust her life!

Looking at "Blue Cang Cang Qiangwei," who were ready to die, Ainz was now a bit conflicted.

Honestly, he arranged this show on one hand to show the power of the Great Tomb of Nazarick to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

On the other hand, it was also to take the opportunity to challenge the Baharuth Empire, acknowledge the existence of their Sorcerer Kingdom, and let the other party cede land and pay compensation.

If the other party opposed, then they would use this as a pretext to launch a war against the Baharuth Empire.

But Ainz didn't expect that Jircniv, the Emperor of the Empire, would endure such humiliation, while Lakyus, the Kingdom's adventurer, couldn't hold it in.

If he didn't kill "Blue Cang Cang Qiangwei," he couldn't establish his prestige.

But if he really killed Lakyus and the others, that would be issuing a war declaration to the Kingdom, or even directly tearing off the mask.

Ainz was troubled because things were somewhat out of his control.

However, as a player who often had to patch things up for the self-brainwashing guardians, such an accident didn't stump him in the end.

After thinking for a while, Ainz finally stopped the guardians who were ready to take action: "I see. Is this the so-called camaraderie?

Once upon a time, I also had a group of companions to whom I could entrust my life and whom I could trust.

You are Lakyus Alvein Dale Aindra, right? For the sake of us both having a group of excellent companions, I can give you a chance."

"Yuri Alpha." Ainz looked at Yuri on the side and called out.

"Lord Ainz." Yuri knelt on one knee, waiting for the order.

"Since you trust your companions, then your companions must also trust you, right?

Then let's make a bet. As long as you can win... oh no, as long as you can hold out for thirty minutes without being defeated in a battle against Yuri.

I can forgive your rude behavior of speaking inappropriately just now, and as a reward, I can resurrect the 'Four Armaments' just now and let you take them away."

"But... if you lose, then not only you, but your companions will also experience the true despair of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Believe me, that extreme despair is the true abyss compared to what you just saw.

How about it? Do you have the courage to accept this bet I proposed?

Also, if you refuse, I can also be merciful for once and only give you death. I just don't know if your companions will be willing to bet their lives for you?"

Originally thinking it was a dead end, now a glimmer of life suddenly appeared. Whether these monsters wanted to see her struggle for fun or for other reasons, in short, this result was much better than what she had thought at the beginning.

But thinking that if she lost, Evileye and the others would have to be buried with her, so Lakyus let go of the magic sword in her hand and was about to give up, but was interrupted by Evileye and the others behind her.

"Lakyus, if you dare to say you give up, we will never forgive you!"
