A complex sigh sounded.

"I didn't dare to ask, I..."

Demiurge raised his hand and silently covered his expressionless face.

After probing the human named Gavan, and judging that the other party might know where the other supreme beings are...he flinched.

They didn't open their mouths to ask each other about their creators.

Because he was afraid of hearing an answer he could not accept.

Afraid... I learned from that man that the creator, Ulbert, no longer wanted him, or that there was a cruel possibility that someone else was no longer there.

"...When did I become so cowardly? It's outrageous."

After taking a deep breath, Demiurge put down his hand covering his face, and the elegant and decent smirk returned to his face again.

"Okay, this is the end of distracting thoughts."

He would not allow himself, as a guardian, to show a weak posture in front of others.

Any troubles stemming from sensibility are meaningless. Only by maintaining absolute rationality, always bringing benefits to the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, and loyally serving the only remaining Supreme Being, Lord Ainz, is he now. the whole meaning of existence.

Only when there is no one around now, he will reveal some meaningless emotions...

"Hey."

A passing Princess Xi Ye held the large mysterious magic robe in her hand, which was big enough to take her away in a package. After some difficulty, she lifted it up a little bit, and walked calmly in front of someone as if there was no one else around.

Demiurge froze: "..."

When did this kid come?

Also, his weak posture just now was not discovered, right?

"Princess, what a coincidence?"

Seeing Xi Ye who seemed to be ignoring him and leaving directly, Demiurge who was leaning against the wall also waved his hand stiffly, and greeted him with a rare awkward smile.

"Well... did you hear some strange words just now?"

And his strange behavior directly aroused Xi Ye's surprise and vigilance, and he quickly hid the "picked up" magic robe behind his back.

"Mmm! It's mine!"

Qi Ye put on a threatening posture with a small face.

"Ahem, okay, yours, yours, put away those big scissors first."

Demiurge, who was accustomed to grabbing things at night from time to time, also coughed twice, acquiescing to this behavior rarely, and couldn't help asking again.

"So... Princess, when did you come here?"

"Just now."

Tilting her little head, Qi Ye showed a confused expression of what are you asking.

Meanwhile, the corners of Demiurge's smiling mouth began to twitch.

So did you hear what I was saying just now?

However, it seemed that the twitching smiling face made Xi Ye misunderstand something. She tightly protected the mysterious magic robe of unknown origin in her arms and took two steps back, then suddenly trotted away, if she wanted to stay away, she would snatch her away. The "bad guy" of quilts.

This crisp and neat scene also caused the veins on Demiurge's forehead to bulge, but in the end he just sighed softly.

"Looking at the reaction, I probably didn't hear it."

Reluctantly adjusting his glasses, he was about to leave to find Lord Ainz to report on his trip, but a subconscious glance from the corner of his eye made him abruptly stop in his tracks.

Demiurge, who was stunned, looked at the mysterious magic robe that was fading away, and suddenly found that it looked very familiar...

Fuck!Isn't that the magic robe worn by Lord Ainz? !

How did you get it, princess? ? ?

This time, Demiurge, who couldn't bear it any longer, was about to call out for that bad boy, but found that Xi Ye, who was about to run away, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Then, under his surprised and puzzled gaze, he turned around and trotted back, came to him, raised his head and stared at him intently with those familiar pair of purple eyes with star pupils.

"The...princess?"

After a little hesitation, Demiurge opened his mouth to test.

He is obviously very smart, but he can't understand all kinds of thoughts that this child usually has, including now, he can't think of what the other party is trying to do.

But Xi Ye didn't answer him at all, but suddenly took out a big soft pillow from nowhere, grabbed it with her small hands, and stuffed it into his arms without any explanation.

"Here you are." Qi Ye said in a soft voice, without any emotional fluctuations.

"...Is this?" Demiurge asked with some doubts as he held the pillow in one hand and casually adjusted his round glasses with the other.

"The pillow I took from Uncle Skeleton's room before."

Xi Ye replied honestly.

Then Demiurge subconsciously changed to holding the pillow with both hands, and didn't know for a while whether to show a happy expression or a mother's disapproval expression.

But this is not important to Qi Ye.

"Send it to you."

She raised her little hand, stood on tiptoe, and patted Demiurge's shoulder lightly. She also showed a cute smile, but she didn't know what to express.

"Princess, you really... Forget it."

After struggling for a while, it was best to just sigh helplessly. Demiurge lowered his head and looked at the girl in front of him speechlessly, not knowing what to say.

"Why did you suddenly give me a pillow?"

"Do you like it?" Qi Ye asked, tilting her head while going her own way.

"Um, I can't say I don't like it anymore, it's just that your behavior is disrespectful to Ainz-sama..."

"That's good."

Qi Ye, who still only listened to the part he wanted to hear, showed a faint smile again, and said softly: "After receiving the gift, don't be sad."

"...Princess, so you heard it just now." After being silent for a while, Demiurge chuckled lightly.

But what he didn't expect was that Qi Ye still looked at him with a puzzled face: "What did you hear?"

"Eh?"

The demon pretending to be calm was stunned.

"Then why did you give me a pillow and say, like that?"

"Because I think you look very sad."

Xi Ye replied flatly, speaking slowly, but so clearly.

"I don't want to see you sad, because I don't know why..."

The princess who was voluntarily taken care of by the monsters silently looked away and said softly.

"I won't be able to sleep well that way."

After finishing speaking, Qi Ye suddenly ran away with the mysterious magic robe in his arms without saying a word.

Only Demiurge was left in a daze, standing where he was, silently watching the back of the other party who was gradually moving away until it disappeared.

It wasn't until a while later that he responded further.

Hugging the pillow in his arms tightly, Demiurge, who lowered his head, began to subconsciously keep supporting his round-rimmed glasses that would never slip off.

The slender pointed ears were feeling a little hot for some reason.

"That kid...what the hell is he thinking?"

The demon leaned against the wall again, clutching his chest, feeling his heart beating faster for no reason.

While wondering about his state, Demiurge couldn't help feeling deeply grateful——

Fortunately, no one else is passing by here now.

......

at the same time.

Somewhere outside a bathhouse hot spring bath.

Ainz Ooal Gon, who had just finished taking the slime bath and was wearing a bathrobe, had a expression of silence on that skeleton face.

"...Where is my robe?"

He murmured in confusion, not knowing who he was asking, with an appearance of doubting life.

After all, he is not a beautiful woman, and someone would steal his clothes after taking a bath.

And it is impossible for the maids to take off the magic robe that he temporarily took off without authorization, so there is only one answer.

"...Where is the princess???"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"hiss--"

Levitating above the ruins with both feet off the ground, Gavan covered his side face which seemed to be in pain, with a gloomy expression on his face.

"Sorry, I hurt you by mistake, Mr. Gavan."

Ji Guoyuanyi, who stuck the dark red sword on the ground and supported his body with some difficulty, said with an apologetic face.

"It's okay. I can understand the situation just now. I was too careless. You can just call me Jiafan."

Putting down his hands, Jia Fan lightly shook his head indifferently: "But Yuan Yi, your saber just now is so powerful, the "multi-layer barrier" on my body surface was directly chopped into pieces."

Fortunately, I also gave myself a BUFF of movement conversion, absorption and buffering, and "high-level hardening" in advance, otherwise I felt a little cold just now.

Gavan thought with some fear in his heart.

And the most deceitful thing is that the broken knife in the other party's hand was stuffed by himself, which is simply deceitful.

At this time, the "Buddha" held by Ji Guoyuan was trembling slightly, and made a crisp knife sound, as if expressing his joy instinctively.

I don't know if it's because the person holding it is an absolutely qualified swordsman, or because I just slashed that nasty black-eyed man.

Or maybe both.

The veins on his forehead popped up, Gavan silently looked at the broken knife, and his eyes became more and more hostile.

This thing is not a good thing at first glance.

"Gavan, I now understand what you just explained about why I came to this world, but..."

At this time, Ji Guoyuan suddenly asked with a serious face: "Where did that man with an extremely evil aura go, and what's the matter with the knife in my hand now?"

As he said that, he seemed to have regained his strength a little bit, and pulled out the dark red sword stuck in the ground, and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes.

The word "Buddha" engraved on the body of the knife is clearly visible.

Killing is to protect life, killing karma is not killing people, does Buddha also have the meaning of Vajra's wrath?It's a good name.

Ji Guoyuan thought of this in his heart, and then pulled out the broken blade at his waist, looking at the only small part of the blade left. "Evil Demon Slayer" is engraved on it.

The calm and indifferent face can't help showing a little complexity.

"Sorry, old man..." Ji Guoyuan sighed softly.

For the first time in his life, he went all out, even fighting for his life——

Lost.

"Well, Yuanyi, speaking of which, why are you fighting?" Gafan began to try to change the subject with erratic eyes.

"Because the evil person who sneaked into the royal city is threatening the princess of this country. She is a good person."

"It turned out to be like this. Seeing the princess die, she drew her sword when she saw injustice...Wait, you mean the golden princess, Lana?"

Gavan was stunned, and even suspected that he had heard wrongly.

"That's right, she is a friend of Miss Lakyus, my captain, and she is also the person who abolished slavery in this country. I should save her in any sense."

"Uh... All in all, the fight between you should be due to a misunderstanding."

Covering his face tiredly and resisting the desire to complain, Jiafan thought for a while, and explained euphemistically: "You should have noticed it, you obviously fought so fiercely, and the aftermath has such a wide range, but in fact it didn't affect everyone. to anyone else."
