It was the same old question, it was the same old dilemma, the hopes of the denizens of Nazarick in regarding to their almighty ruler and supreme overlord, their god, king and creator.

The question that lurked in the deepest corner of the hearts of the guardians and even of almighty Ainz Ooal Gown. It was a quest that was whisper ten of thousand time over within the Great Tomb of Nazarick, echoing through its halls.

"Will Nazarick have an heir, if so then how?"

In the frozen wasteland, a snow storm was billowing about, and amidst the storm there is an entity. This entity is wrapped in an elaborate, jet-black academic gown adorned with gold and violet edges. The entity has a dark red glow inside the empty eye sockets, and a dark halo-like object glimmered behind its head. The entity visage was that of death itself incarnated, devoid of skin nor flesh. This is Ainz Ooal Gown, the master, the emperor of death, the Sorcerous King and even though he is all this, given that he didnt really wanted it but took the title and job anyway, he now face a dilemma that would take all his power and intelligence to tackle, and such task come with a risk so great that even with his undead passive of emotion suppression he still feel quite unnerving.

Ainz's dilemma was the matter of siring an heir to Nazarick to appease the floor guardian's and the overseer's hopes.

The snow storm beginning to lessen its mighty wrath and Ainz was in thought, while spirits and creatures of varying shapes moved about, daring not to disturb their great master for they know that their great lord is in thought, no doubt planning his next great move that will change the world...if only.

Prior to this, for the umpteenth time Albedo had assault Ainz, pushing Ainz down on his back while wearing a naked apron, and for the umpteenth time, Ainz manage to fought Albedo off his back with the help of his hidden bodyguards.

When Albedo have finally calm down for the umpteenth time, the replies for Ainz's inquiries was something along the line of Albedo wishing to copulate with him and siring him an heir.

Ainz thought: *sign*...cursed my body, if it wasn't for the fact that I'm an undead and that all I have is just bones, I would have grant her request and satisfy my longing desires a long time ago...

Ainz lamented: "This is a cruel fate, for me to be surround by such beautiful being and unable to enjoy even the most basic sensation. Cursed body, For too long I've been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I've been starving to death and haven't died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of blood from my enemies. Nor the warmth of a woman's flesh. However perhaps today this will change!"

Taking a book out from his inventory, Ainz smooth his hand over the book, he happen upon this interesting book within the Grand Tomb Library while he was searching for another book about the issues of being a boss. Truly, perhaps this book was indeed a hidden treasure. Only...there's a slight catch.

The book name is Almanac of Novice Alchemist, a common object sold in starter territory vendor within Yggdrasil that allow players to take up alchemy job, however in exchange, the players must pay a small amount of experience point to acquire the job class. Reading through the book, Ainz discovered a consumable potion recipe called Potion of Harallan. The potion function allow a non-human players to transform into a human race belonging to the Haralla nation of Midgard for a certain period of time, the effect is removed upon entering combat, uses of an ability or until the timer expires. The potion effect was design to be alchemical in nature, not magic base, therefore under players ability to inspect and long range information gathering spell, the targeted player's race would be shown as human. Upon drinking the potion the player would be transform into a Harallan city guard, merchant, noble or beggar randomly while keeping all their skills and abilities. It was originally intended as an fun cosmetic object but soon turn into a rather useful item that allow non-human players to trick Pkers from a distance.

Giddy with joy before his passive kicked in, Ainz have read through the book and eventually come upon a transformation potion that he reason that it may help him with his dilemma. Only there's a slight snag.

Within the VRMMORPG Yggdrasil, there were two systems of crafting. The first system require the players to collect their own resources and time consumingly crafted their items at a near painfully slow pace. The advantage of this was that even though leveling the crafting skill was slow, the result are always guaranteed to be superb and exceed the quality and quantity of the second system. Only sour point was that the player must be at a crafting station located in their guild, main cities, or starting territories.

The second system and the first system were unlocked for all player at level 20, however the second system involves hiring Craftsmen npc and sending them out to perform tasks. A single craftsman for each craft skill can be acquired by performing a simple five-second task. These tasks take up a certain amount of time, though there is an option of spending Real Cash to complete a task instantly. All of this is done through the Crafting window, accessible from anywhere. Unlike companion, hired bodyguard, and program created npc, these crafting npc are treated like resources, valuable resources. A player can summoned these crafting npc out from the inventory but they usually have very weak health, they would make averagely bodyguard for a level 20 newb but for players at level 35 and above these npc are extremely weak and worthless in combat. The advantage of the second system was fast leveling, but poor to average quality and a standard quantity.

Example: Using the first system, a player may be able to turn an iron ingot into an iron sword with as many as three extra bonus stats not include the damage stats while using the second system the standard is only allow one bonus stats not including the damage stats.

Each crafting skill can produce as many crafting npc of that categories, but they cannot be substitute for other crafts.

For an example, a weaponsmith npc cannot be substitute for an armorsmith npc in tasks that require an armorsmith npc to complete it.

Crafting npc come in varying degree of quality, each with a certain special effect or abilities.

1. Common: White label: combat level 1-6: Finish Tasks with 10% faster.

2. Uncommon: Green label: combat level 7-18: Finish Tasks with 20% faster.

3. Rare: Blue label: Combat level 19-24: Finish tasks with 30% faster, can stun enemies

4. Epic: Purple label: Combat level 25-31: Finish tasks with 50% faster: Stun ability: AoE Dmg skill.

Certain recipes like alchemy require npc as sacrifice resources, crafting such recipes is considered evil by the game systems and thus affect the players karma point.

The potion that Ainz wanted to make require a level 5 alchemy and six hundred and sixty six epic, nine hundred and ninety-nine rares, and seven hundred seventy-seven uncommon as ingredient.

With the resources gathered by guild members of Nazarick in ages past, there is enough materials that would allow Ainz to reach level ten within a few weeks, the only problem was that when it come to the crafting npc, there weren't any...well...any of the required npc for sacrifice ingredient, because transformation potions ingredient can only be made with sacrifices of the same race. In other words; A potion that turn players into undead require undead npc as sacrifice while a frost giant transformation potion require sacrifice of frost giant npc and so on.

The Guild Ainz Ooal Gown prided itself on not using the second systems and rely on the first, so thus there was a lack of certain 'unique' ingredients. However due to this, the guild vault storage held only the finest gear available, even a simple blue steel dagger in this vault can easily surpassed a two-hand sword made of Ruby steel if said two-hand sword was made by the second system.

This lacks of ingredient is the reason for Ainz's destination unto the Frozen prison.

Ainz thought to himself:...this recipe here called for such a number...this is troubling...It would be naught but an easy tasks to gather any amount of human for sacrifice...but...how do I judge the quality of human in this world?...I think I will try to experiment on the captured human prisoners first and then I shall go from there...
