Overlord (book 1)

Momonga sounds prouder than ever and his voice has become more excited:

”This staff has seven snake engraved in it with gems of artefact and relics level. Because it

belongs to an entire series of items, after the complete collection. one can display immense

power. We spend tremendous perseverance and time to complete his entire collection. In fact,

one member of the guild wanted to give up on the idea during the collection. I don’t know how

many monster we fought to get the treasures.... not only that, this staff has the ability to

overcome the artifact level itself and is comparable to a legendary item. The most powerful

ability is, the automatic engagement...... Ahem. "

. . . . . . Momonga got too excited. Although in the past his companions build it together, but

because it never get outside the throne room, there was no opportunity to show it off. Since it is

out now, he wanted to show it to others. Momonga wanted to continue to show it off, however

his emotions stopped him.

He was too ashamed ......

"... That’s it."

"Wow, So strong......"

"You are the strongest, Momonga-sama!"

The two children's sparkling eyes, almost made Momonga laugh. The efforts to resist it almost

blew away his expression - original y, there were no expressions for this skull ─── he

continues:

"So I would like to make an experiment with this staff and I hope you can help me with it."

"Yes! We will prepare it immediately. Then ...... we can see the power of this staff?"

"Well, of course. I will let you experience the most powerful weapon I can hold."

"Awesome!” - Aura shouts excited and does a cute jump.

Mare tries to conceal his excitement, but his long-eared doesn’t stop shivering as evidence.

This is bad, I need a serious expression, therefore can not relaxed. Reminded Momonga

himself and strive to maintain his dignity.

"... There is one more thing Aura. I have ordered all floors guardian to come over here. They will be all be gathered here in less than one hour."

"Huh? Then we have to get ready -"

"No, it is not necessary, we wait here until they come."

"Ah, all floors Keepers -?? Then Sharutia will come as well?"

"Yes, all the floors guardians."

"...... Oh."

Aura’s long ears suddenly start to hang down.

But unlike Aura, Mare seems so exaggerated. According to their body language, Aura and

Sharutia don’t like each other, unlike Mare. What will happen from now on? Momonga sighed

softly.

Volume 1

Chapter 2 Part 2 (LN)

A total number of 50 soldiers rode through the grasslands. Everyone of them inside their ranks

are muscular, vigorous and particularly eye-catching. "Robust" would be the perfect word to describe these men. Even while wearing breastplates, you could see their body muscles

underneath.

A man around thirty years old, sunbathed dark face with noticeable wrinkles, short black

trimmed hair and black eyes, sharp like a sword looks to the man beside.

"Captain, we are approaching the first village on our patrol."

"Yes, that's right, Lieutenant."

Re-Estize Kingdom’s proud warrior Gasef Stolonoff, have yet to see any villages.

Suppressing his eagerness, Gasef urges his horse to maintain at a constant speed. Although

the current speed should not tire the horse too much, it has been on a forced march since the

Royal capital. Little by little, fatigue is gradually penetrating inside its body. Even a horse would be tired after this long trip and therefore he could not continue to increase his horse’s burden.

"I hope nothing happened."

A little uneasiness is hidden with this sentence. Gasef also has the same feelings. The king who

issued the command, asked Gasef to investigate the sightings of Imperial Knights near the

border. If found, they should immediately suppress them.

Originally, since it was at the outskirts of the city Lantiere, sending troops from there would be

faster. However, taking into account that the enemy were well armed and trained Imperial

Knights, this would have been a bad idea.

In the kingdom, the only one who can compete with the Imperial Knights, were soldier under

Gasef’s direct command. Now suppressing Imperial raids became all Gasef’s responsible and

this gave him a headache.

Before Gasef arrives at the destination, one can mobilize other soldiers to protect the villages. It would be enough to resist and gain valuable time. There are many other possibilities to resist.

But nothing was done - no, nobody was allowed to do anything.

Knowing the reasons why, Gasef’s anxiety became endless. He is trying to calm down while his

hands clasped the reins tightly. It is difficult to suppress the burn inside his hearts.

"Captain, it is foolish that nobody starts the search until we arrive. Not only that, why can they not bring in others to search separately? Like recruiting adventurers with commissions. They

could also search for Imperial Knights. Why wasn’t any such action taken? "

"...Stop it Lieutenant, if Imperial Knights appeared in the territory of the Kingdom at broad

daylight, the situation would be much worse."
