“... Aura, I want to ask you. What is that thing?”
Ainz’s gaze stopped on the lone white chair placed deep inside the room. The back was made high and imposing. It was made so well that it was no exaggeration to call it an art piece. If he ignores that one glaring issue.
“It’s bit plain, but I have prepared a throne.”
The one answering confidently was the subordinate following behind him— Demiurge. That’s what I thought, Ainz said to himself in his mind and asked a further question.
“— What bones did you use?”
“Bones from all sorts of beasts. The best parts are from beasts like Griffon and Wyvern.”
“... Oh… I see.”
That was a throne made from countless bones. It wasn’t in the logistics list of goods they brought from Nazarick, so it was something Demiurge made outside. No matter how he looked at it, skulls from humans or demi-humans were definitely used too. It might look pure white without a shred of blood and meat on it, but it still gave the feeling of blood stain.
It was a bit disgusting, sitting on that thing was akin to sitting on a cushion of needles, making Ainz hesitate. But his subordinate had put in effort to prepare it, it would be difficult to reject it. Is there any reason he could use that won’t cause complaints...
Ainz snapped his fingers after thinking about it.
“... Shalltear. I will give you the punishment for what you had done right now. That’s right… I will punish you with shame.”
“Yes!”
Shalltear who was suddenly named was a bit surprised.
“Kneel with your head bowed over there, and put your hands on the floor.”
“Yes!”
Shalltear walked to the place Ainz pointed at— which was the middle of the room and did as she was told with a baffled face.
Ainz walked up to Shalltear and sat on her back.
“... Ainz, Ainz-sama!”
The surprised Shalltear could only made exhale while whispering ‘Hans-sama’. She was shaken and stiff from fear when Ainz sat on her back.
“You are now a chair, understand?”
“Yes!”
Ainz shifted his gaze from Shalltear whose voice was getting shrilled, onto Demiurge.
“— Sorry Demiurge, that’s how it is.”
“I see! Marvellous! To use a Guardian as a chair! This is a chair customized specifically for the Supreme Master! As expected of Ainz-sama. I would never have thought of that!”
“Is, is that so…”
In the face of the glittering respect shown on Demiurge was expressing, Ainz averted his face, not understanding why he was smiling so brilliantly. After this, a beautiful woman said to Ainz with a wonderful smile.
“My apologies Ainz-sama. Please allow me to excuse myself. I will return shortly.”
“You need something Albedo? Permission granted, carry on.”
After thanking him, Albedo left the room. Immediately, a woman screaming ‘Hyaaahhhhhhh!’ and the sound of a wall being smashed violently could be heard, and the whole fort seemed to be shaking.
After a minute or so, Albedo returned to the room dominated by silence with her usual smile.
“I have returned, Ainz-sama. Oh right, Aura. I accidentally ran into the wall when I left the room. It seemed to be damaged, could you repair it later? I am very sorry.”
“Ah, ermm... Okay, I will get it done.”
