Hi, this is my very first story and I really hope you like it. There might be minor mistakes but please cut me some slack. I will continue the story until the end of vol. 1 and I will be updating very soon.

And most importantly,

DISCLAIMER

I own NOTHING but my OC. I am just a fan.

Chapter 1 – The Beginning

YGGDRASIL. The most popular out of all DMMO-RPG or Dive Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, all over the world. The cause of its great popularity is the very adjustable system that offers complete freedom to the players except R-18 stuff. Any player can choose from various races and classes. Equipped with various tools, equipments, and materials for highly detailed customization.

Alas, for twelve long years this game has flourished as it is coming to an end.

- The Round Table, The Great Tomb of Nazarick -

This is the conference room for all of the members of our guild, Ainz Ooal Gown. It is composed of a grand obsidian round table surrounded by 41 luxurious seats. However, only one occupies a seat.

"Woah!" I said as I am startled by the Guild Master hitting the grand table.

Momonga, the leader of our guild, Ainz Ooal Gown. He is within the undead race category in the form of an elder lich. His body is a skeleton dressed in dark royal robes with hollowed eyes with nothing but two red glows in the place of his eyes.

"Ah. Good Evening, Craiss Lord. I didn't imagine anyone logging in at this time." He said as he gladly greet me.

"Just Craiss is fine. Assuming from you throwing a fit this isn't a very good evening is it? I just logged in and you startled me. What's up, Bossman?" I stated and asked.

By the way, I suppose should describe myself. I am a monkey. A Kakuen to be precise. I fall under the Faunus category. A Faunus is a non-human race category that is a human with very mammal-like animal characteristics. There are other types such as werewolves, nekomatas, minotaurs, and many more. There are also other categories such as Avian for bird-like qualities, Saurian for reptile-like qualities, Merman for fish-like qualities, Herpien for amphibian-like qualities, Arthropod for insect-like qualities, and Molluska for perverts who like tentacles.

The guild has two criterias for joining in. First, you have to be person that contributes to society in the real world. Probably because you need real money to buy special items and the whatnot. Second is you have to be a non-human race character. Therefore, races other than human is acceptable. And so, I based myself off Sun Wukong. My weapon is also a golden bo staff that grows and shrinks as I wish. I know, stereotypical.

"Its just that . . . I'm agitated. Everyone left as if they have no sentiment for everything we accomplished together." He replied with a sad voice.

As good as YGGDRASIL is, the game does not apply facial expressions and lip sync. Our expressions are frozen still so we have to use emoticons to say how we feel. Momonga didn't use an emoticon but I can still hear the sadness in his voice. Out of all 41 members of the guild, Momonga is the one who put a lot of effort into designing the guild down to the finest details.

"Fun times sure fly by like bananas. Get it? 'Cause I'm a monkey." I joked to cheer him up.

"You know I am not one for jokes but thanks for trying anyway. So, why did you return? You're a cop right? Don't you have to be up early tomorrow?" He asked. His voice seems to be less depressed now.

"I want make the most of my life in the game. There's something I want to do while the server is up." I said as I rise from my seat and walk towards him.

"I want to do something as well, do you mind coming with me to the throne room?" He invited me and stood up. Walking towards an alcove in the wall he took the staff of Ainz Ooal Gown off its pedestal.

Having the Greek god Hermes' caduceus as motif, the staff was entwined with seven serpents. Each of the serpents' mouths held a jewel of different color.

"Sure." I said, checking the time on my console. "We have some time."

"Then let us go." He said partly to me, the other towards the staff of our guild.

…

As we are walking in the royal suite passage, our footsteps echoing so loud I wanted to break the silence.

As I ponder on what would be a great conversation starter we are greeted by a butler and six maids. When I said greeted I meant they stood aside and bowed their heads respectfully. It is their fixed settings as custom NPCs.

"Sebas Tian and the battle maids, Pleiades. They really did put a lot of effort designing their respective NPCs." I said, amazed of their highly detailed appearance while poking their faces.

"You're one to talk. I remember you saying your boss chewed your ass hard because you took two days off for customizing your pet NPC." He reminded me of the hellish earful I got from the Director General.

Before I speak to redeem myself as worthy as a Chief Inspector, he asked.

"Do you think everyone would mind if I do as I please for tonight?"

"Hmm . . . seeing as you kept the place together whilst most have already quit, I believe they don't have any say in the matter." I said as I dismiss my past with a wave of a hand.

"Is that so . . ." He muttered to himself. "Then, [Follow]."

As he issue the order Sebas Tian and the Pleiades respectfully bowed and followed behind us, showing they accepted the command.

…

Soon, we reached The Lesser Keys of Solomon a.k.a. The Lemegeton. Towering over five meters, this majestic double door was meticulously engraved with a goddess on the left panel and a devil on the right panel.

"Wow. That's a Chuunibiyou for you. Such majestic, Very details, Such wow, Very Doge. I never really paid attention to the wonders inside Nazarick." I said in amazement.

"Well, you spent most of your time in YGGDRASIL out on the field so it is no surprise that this is your first time seeing this." He replied with the pride of his friends on his voice.

Momonga carefully touched the door. It opened slowly as though it was automatic.

It was breathtaking. The throne room which I hath never laid thine eyes upon was simply astonishing.

The interior is similar to a massive cathedral but is much more beautiful and highly detailed. From the ceiling to the floor, a total of forty-one giant banners with different emblems decorated the walls. In the inner most side of the room stood a majestic throne atop a low stairway that had about ten steps. On the wall behind it was a huge dark red banner embroidered with the guild's coat of arms.

It was the supposed heart of The Great Tomb of Nazarick.

"Oooh . . ."

I could tell that even Momonga is in awe with the magnitude of the room.

"This room is the perfect place for final moments." He said with glee in his voice.

"Agreed, but not for my moments." I said. He understood what I mean as he dons the title of the Guild Master.

As we approach the throne, our eyes turn to the female NPC that is standing beside the throne.

"Albedo, the Succubus Overseer of the Floor Guardians of the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Never seen her before but I've heard of her. If I recall, Tabula Smaragdina was the one responsible for creating her." I said as I ponder the memories I had of him.

"[Stand-by]" he suddenly said.

Me, Sebas Tian and the Pleiades stopped.

"Standing by. Awaiting orders." I instinctively said.

"Not you. I meant Sebas Tian and the Pleiades."

"Oh, sorry. Instinct kicks in. So, what kind of settings does she have?" I asked trying to cover my mistake.

"Hmm. Let's see . . . Gah! So long." He exclaimed.

"Well, that's no surprise. This is Tabula we are talking about. I remember when he was—"

I was cut off when Momonga said "What the!?"

"What is it?" I asked.

"Its uh . . . 'She is also a nymphomaniac'." He replied nervously.

"Whut!? Really?" I asked as I ascend upon the steps to read her settings.

"Hahahaha! Seeing as she is a succubus it seems normal but that guy is really something. I just got a wicked idea. Let's correct this 'error'." I said grinning but I can't really express the smile on my frozen face.

"Are you sure this is alright? We can't just mess with another guild member's NPC." He said with worry in his voice.

"Its fine. Besides, I've got a business to settle with Tabula. He's been taking the credits from the boss fights that I accomplish. And it's the last day. What's the worst that could happen" I replied with malicious intent in my tone.

(a/n: please don't tell my OC to try not choke on his foot)

"Fine." He said, giving up. He tapped Albedo's settings with the staff of Ainz Ooal Gown and a holographic keyboard appeared below.

I erased the original sentence and replaced it with 'She is also in love with Momonga'. Then I proceeded to enter the sentence.

"What the hell!?" Momonga exclaimed with surprise in his voice.

"Chill. I said it's the last day, what's the worst that could happen?" I said, trying to prevent him from changing the system back. "We don't have much time. Just do what were planning to do."

"Tch." I hear him click his tongue as he sat on the throne.

"[Kneel]"

He issued another order and Albedo, Sebas Tian and the Pleiades knelt simultaneously.

"Now everything is set." He said with satisfaction.

"Now, I'm just gonna go and mind my own business." I said while turning my back on him.

"You should have done that from the start." He said with annoyance in his voice.

"Aww. Don't be so sour, bony-muffin." I said with obvious joy in my voice. "It really has been fun. I really hope they make a sequel. Like 'YGGDRASIL ~Seed of Life~' or something similar. I'll definitely be back for that." I said.

I turned around to face him sitting on the Throne of the Kings. The Overlord of Death, a title befitting of him.

"Me too." He said "Me too. I'll just wait here until the forced log out."

"I'll be going somewhere then. Until we meet again, Momonga." I said with a wave of a hand as I teleported out of the throne room.

…

I lay there, enjoying the cool breeze while looking at the imitation of the night sky. The plains in the 6th floor of Nazarick really is the best place to relax and melt that stress away. It also is the final moments where I can find my peace.

I willed my weapon, the Golden Bo Staff (the imitation of Riyu Jin-Gu Bang) Marble, to the size of a spinning pen. Spinning it around my fingers while thinking about what to do when the server shuts down and I am forced logged out.

Yawwnnn….

I can just sleep here. Then when the forced log out happens I'll be asleep and when I wake up I'll just remove the Xgear on my head. My alarm is already set and I have the time to get to work. Just a few minutes late.

(a/n: I call it Xgear because I don't know the 'nervegear-thing' they use in the game. Please let me know if you do.)

I shift in place to get comfortable and let sleep take over me.

Man, It's been a long day. I'll miss this game so much.
