Chapter Sixteen


Y/n's POV.


When we got to the throne room, Aniki used his staff to create a second throne for me since I don't have one yet. I abruptly sit on it and before Eve take her spot beside my new throne, I ordered her to fetch me some snacks since I am hungry.


With those unbelievable circumstances lately, I need a break...


Ains: We will now decide the doctrine that Nazarick will follow henceforth. Overseer of the guardians of Nazarick, Albedo. As well as Nazarick's ultimate strategist, Demiurge. Now that we have put most of my initial plans into motion, tell everyone how you believe Nazarick should move forward. I allow any others that may have ideas to raise their hands as well. In order to do so, Demiurge, explain the current situation to the others so that it is easily understood.


Demiurge: Understood, Lord Ains.


Wait? Why did Demiurge has to explain it? I tilted my head and glare to my even-minded brother. This weird atmosphere somehow make me feel that something crazy will happen. I hope my instinct is wrong.


Demiurge: Everyone. Thanks to Mare's group, we have subjugated all the leaders of the Eight Fingers. Now, Nazarick has control over the underworld of Re-Estize Kingdom.


While Demiurge do the talking, Eve comes back with a glass of warm blood on her hand. She gently gave it and bow before standing next beside me. I silently drink the blood as my vision was focused on Demiurge.


Demiurge: We are now have a stepping stone toward Lord Ains and Lady Y/n's ultimate objective of world domination! I pray there are no fools that didn't know our objective.


I almost spit the blood out of my mouth when Demiurge mentioned a freaking world domination. W-wait? When was something like that decided?! I sternly gaze at my brother but quickly taken back once i saw that he's jaw dropped and her eyes light up. Didn't he actually knew this, either?


But, come to think of it, I guess world domination isn't a bad idea, however, it was truly a risky move do initiate.


Demiurge turned to us and waiting for our word, it seems like I'm not the only one whose in deep abashment right now. I cleared my throat to attain his attention which thankfully worked.


If I observe this situation a little bit further, I can merely clarify how did Demiurge make this theory of world dominating stuff.


Ains: Y-you remembered.


Demiurge: Of course, my lord. I Demiurge, could never forget any word or line that you and Lady Y/n have spoken to me.


Ains: I see. From that time, huh?


Demiurge: Exactly so!


Ains: I-I see. I am very pleased Demiurge.


Demiurge: Thank you very much.


Oh great, now my brother's acting like he knew what in the crazy hell is going on. Should I tag along too?


Y/n: However, world domination is a difficult thing. Don't ya think?


Demiurge: It is as you say milady.


Y/n: So, how do you think we should move forward?


Demiurge: I humbly suggest that we announce Nazarick to the public. Since the one's who controlled Shalltear continue to move behind the scenes, staying in the shadows will only further encumber us.


Albedo: I agree. There will no longer be a need to dispatch a select few to hunt for them.


Y/n: W-what do you think, brother?


Ains: Yes, it was an appealing idea.


Albedo: By controlling the kingdom from the shadows, you wanted the kingdom to recognize Nazarick as an organization but, the ideas of affiliating with a country and serving under them is unacceptable.


Demiurge: For myself, as well. The current state of that kingdom is completely unappealing. Furthermore, serving another country would limit our movements. If the ones who controlled Shalltear are a part of an organization, they may use such a situation against us. Therefore, Lord Ains and Lady Y/n, I propose that we from our own country known as the Great Tomb of Nazarick.


I am going to talk to him when this meeting is over. Demiurge slightly turned to the others as we heard some whispers coming from them.


Demiurge: Let me tell you now, just in case. From the beginning, Lord Ains and lady Y/n have been thinking about this.


WHAT? How? When? I don't remember thinking like that?! Did I?


Demiurge: Of course, a talentless individual such as myself could never fully understand the plans of the ones who were the crystallization of wisdoms. At most, I can understand some of the outermost surface.


Ains: A-as expected from the number one strategist of Nazarick. I am surprised you detected our plans, Demiurge.


Demiurge: Anyone would realize such a thing if they observed your actions until now, Lord Ains and lady Y/n.


Y/n think! Why does Demiurge picked the wrong idea about our true goal!


Y/n: What action do you think was the most important, Demiurge?


Demiurge: I believe it has to be the Carne Village.


Ains: That had gone well..


Demiurge: With all due respect, it was a village that Lord Ains and Lady Y/n directly subjugated. It would have been impossible to have not gone well.


Shalltear: The human village?


Mare: I-i didn't realize.


Demiurge: It would have been very easy for Lord Ains and Lady Y/n to eradicate the humans but they chooses to rule over them peacefully. In other words, Lord Ains and Lady Y/n have already begun to think about world domination and used that village for experimentation!


Nailed it, so that's the reason why he thinks that we were aiming for a world domination.


After we heard Demiurge's misunderstood realization. I immediately knew my brother's body language. I hold his staff and we teleported on his office then cast a shield barrier to prevent some eavesdropping servants.


Y/n: World Domination? Seriously?!


Ains: Hey, I don't even know that Demiurge thinks that way which is completely too different from ours!


Y/n: You think I didn't realize that? With their upcoming plan, Nazarick will caught so much attention and danger will soon followed. Even If i eliminate E/n, the one who controlled Shalltear is still on the loose. He or she might be a greater threat when the Nazarick rise from it's shadow!


Ains: I know Y/n but what should we do now? Demiurge and Albedo made placed their upcoming plans right in front of us. Did you see their faces filling with excitement? I'm sure they would questioned us severely if we hold this strategic plan they want to fulfill.


Y/n: Then, Let me ask you this Aniki, do you want a world domination as Demiurge and the others believed?


Ains: W-well...I think that was a wonderful idea after all.


Y/n: Why? Care to share your thoughts?


Ains: If our name spreads through the whole wide world, we might even have a chance to find some of our old comrades if they were actually here, stuck like us.


Y/n: But you said that they were com-


Ains: I know what I've said before. I don't dislike Demiurge's plan even if the safety of the Nazarick was on the line but, if that opportunity can leads us to them, that is a chance I am willing to take.


I smiled, knowing that my brother's hope to find our comrades didn't vanished even though he almost drop it when we were at the Mausoleum with Albedo. How hilarious *Smile*


Y/n: There would be a slight changes from now on, our new objective: Dominate the world to find them and spread the Ains Ooal Gown name. A difficult one but we can do it, right?


Ains: Right.


I was going to add something when my pointed ears heard the sound of my dark ocarina's melody again. My face went into it's neutral look and brother didn't like that kind of expression.


Ains: What's wrong, Y/n?


Y/n: The Carne Village is in danger.


Ains: How did...


Y/n: I gave my Dark Ocarina on Enri for emergency purposes. I heard it just now so, they must be in some kind of trouble.


Ains: I assigned LupisRegina there, I will-


Y/n: No need. This is my duty Aniki, let me handle it like the old times. *Smile*


Ains: Are you sure? You don't even know what skills and power do you have in that form of yours.


Y/n: Like you said, humans was the best guinea pigs for as test subjects. *Sinister Smile*


Ains: Alright. But I will have LupisRegina to standby by just in case you need someone to tag along with you.


Y/n: Thanks, brother.


I summoned my silver flute and swipe it through the air to create a gate. Since my form isn't that kind of scary, I didn't have to use a concealment spell to hide my true self. I just tucked my tail inside of my dress then hop in to the gate which leads to the location of my ocarina directly.


When I got out, I was in the village and saw two goblins and Enri who's holding a hoe.


Enri: I'm glad you came Y-....


Enri didn't finish her sentence as she saw my form. She drop the hoe and approached to me with a slight tint of crimson blushing on her face.


Y/n: *Sigh* Don't ask me why did I ended up like this. I can't give you a proper answer. Now onto the main topic, Why did you summoned me?


She didn't respond. Her eyes were locked on me as she whispers something..


Y/n: Hey, Enri? Are you listening? I said wh-...


She quickly picked me up like a kid and squeeze me like a cute stuff animal.


Enri: You look so adorable Y/n-sama! You're just like Nemu but taller, cooler, and a cute one! *Smile*


Y/n: H-hey! Knock it out! U-unhand me th-this instant! I..I can't breath!


Enri: Kyaah! I can hug you forever!


Y/n: AARGH! Put me down! Now!


???: U-uh, Anee-san? This is not the right time for that, we still have a problem at the forest, remember?


Thankfully Enri listened as she quickly get her mind back and gently put me down. I sigh in relief and pull out my supreme being attitude at them. They have been taking me so lightly because of my form and...I don't like it.


Y/n: I will ask this for the last time, why did you summoned me here?


Enri: Kyumei said that something going on in the Great forest.


Y/n: Something? Is it a gourp of bandits who tries to attack the village?


Kyumei: No, it looks like something deep in the forest.


Enri: I'd like to go to the forest and collect herbs in the next two or three days.


???: That's dangerous Miss.


Enri: I know, that's why I called Y/n-sama for help.


Y/n: If you need to go there, mind if you scout the place first? Just for precautionary measures.


Kyumei: Easy to say but, our hands are full just helping the villagers. We need more troops to scout and help Miss. Enri to gather some herbs.


Y/n: Is that the awful smelly thing besides Nemu?


Nemu: Hey, It's not that bad Y/n-chan!


Enri: It's a herb that we can only harvest this time of year to make Enkaeshi. This medicine is the Carne village's specialty that it can only be made with herbs harvested this time of the year.


Y/n: I see. Well? What is your plan now Enri?


After that little meeting, we went to the Great Forest with a bunch of goblins, including Nphirea. Even if I couldn't see his eyes, i know that he's still starring at me. *Sigh* should I be surprised by their reactions?


???: Listen up. While Miss. Enri is looking for herbs, we'll split up and scout the nearby area of the Great forest and find to find out what's going on! As for Miss. Enri and Lady Y/n's body guards..Gokou, Kaijali, Unlai. You three. Make sure that no harm comes to them. And also brother Nphi, make sure no-...


Y/n: Stop this 'make sure no harm' sentences already and let's roll. That's obviously not gonna happen since I'm here, got it?


???: A-ah, my apologies, Lady Y/n.


Nphi, Enri, me and those three goblins started our journey to pick some stinky herbs within the depths of the Great Forest. While they are in the middle of harvesting, I sense a disturbing sound coming on our way, the goblins senses it too and alert the two love birds for a upcoming danger.


If you don't know what's was your opponent, the best thing todo is to back off a little bit, hide and wait for the right time to Strike once you gathered the info that you need until you eradicate it. (One of Aniki's lecture)


Our waiting did not put into waste as we saw a small goblin running away and hide to the tree nearly to us. He's covered with scratch and bruises.


Enri: What should we do?


Y/n: Quite. He's been followed by a monster..


Not a minutes passed, a black cute Barghest came out from nowhere and sniffing it's surroundings, he is looking for his small prey. The Barghest took a different path to searched, he didn't spot us?


Enri: It looks like the strong smell of the herb has masked out our scent.


Gokou: Then, things will be settle if we leave the kid to die. Protecting the miss and the lady is our top priority.


Enri look on us with a pleading eyes. Oh hell, don't tell me she wants to save that gnat? I took my gaze on the kid whose shivering now in fear. I sigh annoyingly, sensing that Nphirea and I shared the same idea.


Y/n: Ugh...alright. Let's help the gnat.


Nphirea: Okay. We also need to find out why that goblin ran all the way out here. Something dangerous might be approaching the village.


Y/n: Point taken. And...I want that Barghest also. He's a perfect one to be my pet.


Nphirea: Uh..are you sure lady Y/n?


Y/n: 101% sure. *Smirk*


I summoned my weapon and take the cute Barghest attention on me.



(Barghest)


Y/n: If you want to play, I'll play! Don't pick a useless gnat!


The angry Barghest look at me, he's pinning the little goblin with his clawed paw to the ground.


Y/n: What? Are you scared little dog? *Smirk*


He swiftly leaps and attacked me with his black chains, I quickly dodge him and parry the chains with my silver flute. I spin my weapon on my other hand and hit his right arm before taking a distance.


Y/n: Agile, yes. Smart, kind off. Intimidating, yes. Huge, yes. Cuddly? Uh..maybe?


Nphirea: W-what are you doing, Lady Y/n?


Y/n: Oh, don't mind me. I'm just analyzing some information about this cute Barghest. Focus to the enemy and not to me okay?


Nphirea: Right! I'm sorry.


Nphirea cast Reinforce Armor to the three and they were ready to kill my pet. The Barghest can't do a attack thanks for that liquid substance that he threw before.


Nphirea: It's not sticky to completely stop the beast. Attack it all at once!


Y/n: Hey, Are you commanding me now Nphi?


Nphirea: E-eh? No, i-I mean..


Y/n: I'm just joking Nphi. Haha. Well? You heard our pharmacist, attack!


The three goblins attacked my pet, as they went to its danger zone, the Barghest whip its chains and ready to strike the three at once.


Nphirea: Watch out!


Enri: Dodge!!


The three dodged in time before the chain beheaded them, they slashed the Barghest arms and neck flawlessly. My pet didn't make his last attack as he falls down to the ground.


Y/n: Hm..Check the gnat, I'll take care of this Barghest.


While they treating the little gnats wounds, I examined the wild Barghest, the wounds isn't too deep and they didn't aim for its vital signs. (What a bunch of muscle heads.) I placed my palm on its forehead and,


Y/n: Heal.


His blue eyes shined as his wounds we're completely healed. He starts to stand up and make a another ruckus, but using Silent magic, I cast wave of pain in a mid level to make him a submissive one.


After that silent torture, I was going to say something when my muscle head team panicked and readied their weapons when they saw the Barghest is up, standing behind me.


Y/n: Calm down. He won't attack you again.


Enri: W-what did you do Y/n-sama?


Y/n: I told you, I want him to be my pet, so I mess up his dominating side a little bit to make him..more obedient, isn't that right Rasalhague?


Rasalhague sits and wag his tail like a good o'l dog.


Enri: Rasalhague?


Y/n: That's his pet name. Anyways, what happened to the little gnat?


Nphirea: He lost a lot of blood so I used the new potion I made to heal him fast. I want to give it to lord Ains but...


Y/n: It's alright, you've done nothing wrong Nphirea. Next time, when you see LupisRegina, gave her the newly made potion and she will directly give it to my brother. From what you've commit before shall be our only little secret.


Nphirea: T-Thank you, Lady Y/n. *Smile*


???: Y-you're...different from them.


Y/n: Heh, I know.


???: Why did you brought a kid in this dangerous part of the Great forest?


Y/n: (What the?) Listen to me little gnat, I am not a kid. I am just stuck in this midget body, nothing more, nothing less!


???: But...you're still a kid.


Y/n: I am not a kid! YOU are the kid!?


???: Whatever you say..kid.


Y/n: Grr...Rasalhague!?


My pet growls and ready to pounce the little gnat when Enri quickly wrapped her arms around me.


Enri: Y/n-sama, please calm down! He didn't mean to call you a kid.


Y/n: Let me go Enri! I will teach that gnat a thing or two with Rasalhague!


Gokou: You don't even know what did you started Agu. Quick! Apologize to her!


Agu: Huuh? Why would I? She's only a...


Agu starts to tremble when she saw the enraging dark purple aura emitting on my body, my sceleras were all pitch black and blue irises turned bloody red.


Y/n: I dare you to say that word One. More. Time. And you're done...


Nphirea: W-whoa. Lady Y/n, calm down.


Kaijali: Apologize, now!


Agu: I-i'm so..sorry! I'm sorry I called you a kid!


My angry slowly vanishes as he bowed and kneeled in front of me, Enri still hugging me like a koala and she seems not letting go.


Y/n: I maybe look like a kid to you but..don't not ever estimate my form and power..ever again. I am far beyond your gods or goddesses. Do you understand me?


Agu: Y-yes.


Y/n: Good. Now, Enri? Can you please let me go?


Enri: O-oh! I'm sorry!


Enri slowly let me go, my blue eyes were still gazing the little gnat who averted his eyes on me. Feel ashamed, aren't we? *Smirk*


Y/n: Tell me, why are you running with wounds all over your body?


Agu: I-i was attacked, so I ran.


Y/n: That's too short of an explanation. What kind of monster attacked you?


Agu: I was attacked by the minions under the Giant of the East.


Enri: Giant of the East?


Agu: The Giant of the East and the Demon snake of the west have allied together!


We were all startled when that gnat said some names that is clearly a threat if we don't eliminate those monsters.


Y/n: Enri, use your goblins to make your job faster. I am going to take a round within the perimeter with Rasalhague. When you were all done collecting, I shall escorted all of you to the village.


Enri: But, what about Agu? We can't leave him here?


Y/n: The little gnat can go with you to the village. As long as he didn't do anything...stupid.


Enri: Thank you Y/n-sama. *Smile*


With Rasalhague's chain, I grab it and ride on his back and start my scouting with him while the others do their collecting stuffs. They finished before dawn and its would be soon dark when we got to the village so I used Greater teleportation and teleport them straight to the village's gate.
