He carefully watched while ordering Ainz and Nabe to move the crate of herbs they brought from Carne to his warehouse. He also reminded them to handle it carefully, as he didn't want the herbs to decrease in quality due to carelessness.
"Yes, that's right, put that box in that room over there... good job, my worker. I will raise your payment after this."
Nabe, who had just entered the warehouse while bringing another crate, paused and looked at him with a furrowed brow.
"Nfirea, while I know it's just a joke, please don't treat Sir Momon like a lowly worker."
Being stared at displeasedly by someone who was much stronger than him, he could only raise both his hands while smiling awkwardly.
"Ignore him, Nabe. It's a fact that we still work under him."
Ainz said while coming out of the room that had been enhanced to preserve all the materials inside, and lightly waved his hand toward Nabe.
"But still, to treat you like a laborer..."
"Don't worry about it. In the past, even Nishikienrai sometimes ordered me around like a slave to collect materials our guild needed."
"My creator did?"
Nabe's eyes opened wide, and he tilted his head when Ainz mentioned Nishikienrai. He then looked toward Nabe and scrutinized her in detail.
"Um? What is it, Nfirea?"
He ignored her discomfort and turned toward Ainz to ask a question.
"Say, Momon, is Nabe's creation based on Nishiki's sister?"
"Huh? My creator has a sibling?"
"You don't know?"
Seeing Nabe nod her head with an intrigued expression, he thought back on his interaction with Nishikienrai. He didn't remember Nishikienrai ever mentioning his sister; in fact, the reason he knew he had a sibling was that he once overheard his conversation in a voice call.
"Hmm, what makes you think that way?"
He snapped back from his thoughts when Ainz asked a question.
"It's because I once heard him in a voice call, and the one he talked to had the same voice and tone as Nabe."
"Is that so? Now that I think about it, you are right."
He and Ainz turned toward Nabe curiously, while Nabe's face turned into an interested one; it seemed she wanted to know more about her creator.
Just when she opened her mouth, he caught sight of Shiraori in her spider form scurrying toward him. He opened his arms wide when she jumped, and he caught her in mid-air.
"What's up?"
"There is someone who wants to meet you. He said it is an emergency, and you need to meet him immediately."
Usually, the one who monitors his house is Ray, but now that she is in Carne, he let Shiraori be the one to keep watch over the house through the golem's eyes in the control room.
"Hmm, did he introduce himself?"
"He said that he is Panasolei, the mayor of E-Rantel."
"I see, good job."
He rubbed her head to reward her, and he could feel she rub her head back on his palm. He then thought about why Panasolei wanted to meet him; there was only one thing in his mind that could cause him to personally come to his house. A glint flashed through his eyes, and he then turned toward Ainz and said,
"It seems I have a guest, so can you two put the herbs according to my previous instructions?"
"Okay, leave it to me,"
Ainz confidently said, while Nabe just nodded her head. He immediately used teleportation near the gate of his house. It was kind of a waste of mana to teleport a short distance when he could just walk for a minute to reach the gate, but his intention was to deplete his own mana in the first place, so there was no problem.
When the gate was opened by his golem, Panasolei immediately ran inside with two of his bodyguards, but he could tell he was already out of breath even though he had just run a short distance.
"Haaah... haaah... haaah... M-Master Nfirea!!"
"What is it, Mayor? It's rare for you to be running around. Are you trying to lose weight?"
Panasolei ignored his joke and immediately approached him with panic on his expression, but he paused when he noticed the spider on his arm glaring at him.
"What's the problem?"
"T-There is a really strong elder lich rampaging around! It has already killed a lot of people! Even mytril adventurers are barely holding it! Please, lend us your strength!!"
Panasolei bowed his head as low as possible along with his guard. He thought for a moment before he turned toward the spider on his arm.
"Bring Momon and Nabe here."
Shiraori saluted with her front leg that looked like a scythe. He widened his eyes slightly when she vanished from his arm, but then he remembered that Shiraori is a master of space magic.
After a moment not longer than a minute, Shiraori came back with Momon and Nabe beside her. Shiraori then jumped back onto his chest, and he held her in his arms.
"These two will be the ones to kill the elder lich."
"What about Master Nfirea?"
"I can't participate because my mana is low from teleporting around."
"So you already reached 5th tier... amazing."
Panasolei looked at him like some kind of hero. He then turned to look toward Momon and Nabe dubiously when he looked at their copper plate.
"Don't worry about their strength, I guarantee it."
He smiled assuredly toward him, and Panasolei immediately bowed down to apologize.
"I am sorry to doubt you, Master Nfirea, but can you lend some of your golems to us? The lich is bringing a lot of strong undead with him, including the skeletal dragon."
"There is no need for that. If this guy is serious, he definitely can beat Edström with no problem."
"They are!?"
Panasolei turned toward Ainz in shock, and even the guard had the same reaction. She really is famous after killing ten thousand kingdom soldiers. Should he also do the same to get this kind of reaction from people? He thought amusedly; there is no way he would do that.
He then felt Ainz's questioning gaze on his back; he immediately used telepathy to communicate with him.
"Your purpose in being an adventurer is to become famous, right? If you kill this elder lich, it should increase your reputation."
"I see, thank you for letting me have this opportunity. You even made the excuse that your mana is low..."
"Don't mention it; I just thought that was bothersome, that's all. Oh! Right! Almost forgot, you should ride Hamsuke on the way there."
"Huh!? Why!?"
Hearing the indignation in his head, he smirked.
"You should already know the reaction of people when they see Hamsuke, right? To them, she is a magnificent and legendary beast."
"B-But riding on the giant hamster..."
"Come on, we don't have much time."
"Ugh! Fine! I'll do it!"
He smirked. When he heard a grumble in his head, Ainz then put two of his fingers on his temple for a moment before he stepped forward to introduce himself.
"Hello, my name is Momon, and this is Nabe. Leave it to us to handle the elder lich."
"Ah, Sir Momon and Miss Nabe then, we are relying on you two."
Panasolei bowed lightly toward the two before turning around and urging them to follow him, but just when he walked two steps, Panasolei paused while squealing like a pig.
"Hiiih! W-What is that!?"
While Panasolei took a step back, Hamsuke entered from the front gate, passing by the terrified mayor and guard. She stopped in front of Ainz.
"Master! What do you need from me?"
"There is an emergency; I need you to bring me to... where is the elder lich's location?"
"I-In the graveyard."
Panasolei, still shocked, replied to Ainz unconsciously. Meanwhile, Ainz looked hesitant for a moment before he jumped and rode on Hamsuke.
"Bring me and those three to the graveyard."
"I understand, Master! I don't want anyone to ride me besides my master, so I brought you three with my tail, is it."
"E-Eh, w-what?"
Panasolei and the guard look confused when Hamsuke's tail suddenly wrapped around them; they flailed around as they were lifted from the ground.
"Nabe, follow us with [Fly]."
"Alright, Sir Momon."
"Hamsuke, let's go."
"Yes, master!"
Hamsuke immediately rushed out of the gate, followed by flying Nabe and accompanied by three pitiful humans who were letting out miserable screams.
He smiled at that sight before his smile vanished, and he looked down at the frozen spider in his arms with a sharp gaze.
He teleported to the control room and immediately activated the magic built into the room to prevent any information from being leaked.
"Transform to your human form."
"Y-Yes."
He released the spider, and she transformed back into Shiraori. He could feel her nervousness as he stared at her with narrowed eyes.
"I want you to keep this a secret from Ainz after you see what I am going to do. Do you understand?"
Shiraori nodded her head several times with a serious face; he smiled in satisfaction at seeing that.
"Good, follow me."
He walked toward the innermost part of the control room, where there was a big blank screen surrounded by a lot of small ones that showed his golem's perspective.
Obviously, he did not directly create the device with his hands; he created them using his magic, like [Telekinesis]. After all, he didn't want to take a mechanic class and ruin his mage and alchemist build.
He sat in the center seat and activated the big screen while connecting it with his magic. The screen then lit up, showing Clementine's perspective on the floating platform alongside Tira.
While he could monitor them in his mind, he couldn't do that for long as the magic drained a lot of his mana, so he used the screen to watch them complete their mission.
He watched Clementine using the sniper to monitor the Black Scripture, waiting patiently for the chance to shoot them. He then turned to the side where Shirarori stood beside him, looking at the screen.
Maybe feeling his gaze, she turned toward him. He thought for a moment before he patted his thigh, and she just tilted her head in confusion.
"Sit here."
She froze and opened her eyes slightly. She really had beautiful crimson eyes; it seemed Ulbert really overdid it when making her eyes, as he felt entranced when he looked at them.
Shiraori then closed her eyes again to his disappointment before she gingerly walked in front of him and then placed her butt on his lap.
His penis twitched, feeling her soft butt. He put his hand around her waist and placed his head on her right shoulder. He then bit and chewed her ear while looking at the screen in front of him, as he felt her body shiver when he did that.
"You can... isolate this room... slurp... with your space magic... slurp... right?"
"Nnngh... y-yes, I can."
"Do that."
He felt a large amount of mana come out of her, and he felt this room being isolated from the outside world.
It adds an extra layer of security to make sure he isn't found out as the one to do it.
He then put his hand on Shiraori's inner thigh and slowly rubbed it. He carefully watched her reaction; even though she shivered and trembled while squirming in his arms, he didn't get any hint of resistance from her. It seemed she really was loyal to him.
He felt relieved; he didn't know what he would do if she resisted him. After all, when he made a plan, he didn't consider her existence, as she didn't exist in the original.
"Hm? Finally."
He suddenly paused from teasing and rubbing Shiraori's body. He focused on the screen when he noticed that Shalltear finally appeared on it.
