Overlord (book 1)

“Wanting to establish an operating organization as soon as possible and return to Momonga-

sama’s side…. no more loitering around, I need to go and find Momonga-sama quickly. Where

is he now?”

“He just left through that door.”

“Here?”

Although Albedo answered coldly, her face showed a shy smile and she cutely flapped her

wings at the opportunity to see Momonga. She quickly stepped past the demons.

Then the footsteps suddenly stopped, Albedo asked the demons again:

“I’l ask again: going to see Momonga-sama like this wil improve his impression of me?”

Leaving the shrine, a beautiful scene greeted Momonga. The Great Tomb of Nazarick had an

area of about 200 square meters. It was surrounded by six-meter thick walls for protection with

an entrance in the front and the back.

The grass in the cemetery was kept short, giving it a refreshing atmosphere. But on the other

hand, the cemetery had large leafy trees, covering the whole area in shade, creating a

gloomy feeling. There were also many white tombstones laying about in a messy arrangement.

Properly trimmed grass and the disorderly tombstones created a strong sense of disparity. Not

only that, but the area was also dotted with the fine carvings of angels and goddesses, along

with other artworks. But one couldn’t help looking down on the chaotic design of this cemetery.

Also, excluding the four small shrines in the four corners of the cemetery, there was a huge

central shrine with a six-meter high statue of a warrior being protected by soldiers.

Namorax: Nazarick? That you?

It was from the Central Shrine of the Great Tomb of Nazarick that Momonga came out of.

Momonga stood at the top of the board stone steps and quietly overlooked the scenery.

The Great Tomb of Nazarick was located at Hel Heim, which was a cold world with a

neverending night. Because of the eternal night, the atmosphere was quite dark and the sky

would always be covered with dark clouds. But the scenery today was different.

In front of his eyes was the beautiful night sky.

Momonga looked at the sky, and let out a sigh full of emotion, constantly shaking his head as he

could not believe what he was seeing.

“To be able to do this in a virtual world… It truly is amazing…. The air here is fresh and there is

no trace of contamination in the atmosphere. People who are born into this world wouldn’t need

artificial lungs or hearts....”

He has never seen such a clear sky.

Momonga wanted to cast magic, but was hindered by the armor he was wearing. Certain magic

related classes had special skills and being able to cast while wearing armor was one of them,

but Momonga never learned that skill. So the full body armor that he was wearing hindered his

ability to cast spells. Even if it was armor that was created with magic, it still did not have the

advantage of being able to cast spells while wearing it. While wearing the armor, there were

only five types of spells that could be casted. Sadly the spell Momonga wanted to use was not

one of these five types.

Momonga extended his hand into empty air and took out an accessory. It was a necklace in the

shape of a bird’s wings.

Wearing the necklace, he focused his awareness onto the necklace, activating the power

hidden inside.

“Flight.”

Casting off the shackles of gravity, Momonga slowly floated up into the sky. He continued to

speed up, raising upwards in a straight line in one breath.

Although Demiurge hurriedly chased after him, Momonga paid him no mind, and continued to

rise. Unknowingly he has risen up several hundred meters.

Then Momonga slowly decelerated and took off his helmet, he was speechless——No, looking

at this world he became speechless.

The bluish white light from the moon and stars drove away the darkness on the ground. Blowing

in the breeze, the swaying grasslands looked like a shining world. The countless stars in the sky

along with the moon and planets gave off a brilliant radiance, complementing the scenery on the

ground.

Momonga could not help but sigh:

“Beautiful… No, too beautiful for words…. I have no idea what kind of face Blue Planet-san

would make if he saw this…”

If he saw a world with no air, water or soil pollution.

Momonga thought about his companion, thinking about when he appeared on the net, he was

praised as a romantic, on his face that looked like a rock showed a smile——a warm and gentle

man who loved the night sky.

No, what he loved was nature. He loved natured even though it would be polluted and

disappear. Because he wanted to admire a scenery that no longer existed in reality, he started

playing Yggdrasil. He also spent a lot of his time and hard work on crafting and designing the

sixth floor, especially the night sky, thereby creating his ideal world.

For such a nature loving person, it was especially exciting when it came down to talking about

nature. It almost went to the point of over-enthusiasm.

If he saw this world, there would be no telling how excited he would be, or how deep or

passionate the discussion would be like.
