Overlord (オーバーロード)

Raise your heads.

Lord.

You all fulfilled your roles splendidly

during our operation in the kingdom of Re-Estize.

Sebas. Solution. Come forward.

I'm certain the information you gathered

will prove invaluable.

Therefore, I have decided to honor

your diligent efforts with a reward.

Sebas.

Lord.

You asked that I spare Tuare's life,

and indeed I shall,

but I do so to repay a debt to a prior associate,

not in response to your efforts.

Therefore I shall grant you something else

that you desire, as well.

Lord Ains, my only wish is to devote myself--

If you hope to please me,

then I highly suggest you accept my generosity.

My apologies. In that case,

I would ask for clothes

and other daily necessities for Tuare.

Granted. I shall provide the necessary gold.

Perhaps she can accompany you on a bit of a shopping date.

You jest, my lord.

Not at all.

Then you have my gratitude.

Now, Solution, tell me what you desire

so that I may grant it.

I would like to request

a small selection of humans, Lord.

If possible, I would prefer them to be alive.

And if those humans were innocent as well,

that would give me the utmost pleasure.

Living humans, you say? Granted.

However, I will not allow innocent ones.

Forgive me, but I fear I cannot grant your wish

exactly to your specifications.

It's more than enough, my lord!

Next. Entoma.

Lord.

It seems that your voice has yet to return.

Do you find me repulsive, my lord?

Certainly not.

Your efforts are all that matter to me,

and they have earned you a reward.

In that case, Lord Ains.

I would have the voice of the woman who stole mine.

Should the need to kill her ever arise,

I ask that you give me the order to do it.

Ah, the girl with the mask.

She remains a mystery to me. But very well.

I will call for you if such a time arises.

You have my gratitude, Lord Ains.

From the depths of my heart.

Mm.

Ah.

Mm. That's the stuff!

I had to get a bit creative,

but I finally found a way to clean these bones of mine.

Who knew a slime bath would be so refreshing?

It didn't sound very appealing at first,

but I wish I'd tried this ages ago.

I can feel my gooey friend slithering its way

into every nook and cranny.

This might be the most Japanese thing

I've done since I came to this world.

Hot baths are a national pastime!

I may be all bones, but a love for bathing

is in my blood for sure!

Well, not that I had the time or money to enjoy

anything this fancy back home.

I wonder if I embarrassed Sebas back there.

Tuare does dote on him, though.

Demiurge said they seem close.

If they go on that date in E-Rantel,

maybe I'll wear a disguise and tail them.

Just kidding.

Still, as their supervisor,

it's my job to ensure that my employees--

or subordinates-- enjoy their time off!

Do not leave a single speck

of dust behind, understand?

-- Yee! -- Yes.

Heh! For, surely, this Great Tomb of Nazarick

shall be mine to command soon!

Yee!

Mm-hm!

Why, I didn't notice you standing there!

Lovely weather we're having. A fine morning!

Hm?

Looks like you're in top form

this morning, Cixous!

That's because I'm taking care of Lord Ains today.

Oh! So you need the extra calories, huh?

Whoa. Miss Lupisregina!

You just had to sneak up on us, didn't you?

Goodness, you nearly made my heart

leap out of my chest!

Can you blame me?

That look on all your faces was priceless!

I'll have to try this back in the village.

What village?

These days, I've been working at a human settlement

called Carne Village.

Humans, huh? That must be taxing.

More like a total bore! I was hoping for a gig

with a little more excitement, you know?

Unhand me! Unhand me this instant!

I have highly important cleaning to do!

-- -- It's CZ!

Hey, CZ!

So there you are.

My insides! They're about to become outsides!

I wish you would stop misusing Complete Invisibility.

I know, sorry!

On top of that, you started without me.

You said we'd have breakfast together.

Shoot, I forgot!

That sure did surprise me!

I'm just happy we got to see Miss Lupisregina.

Gotta refocus.

I'm taking care of Lord Ains today!

Okay! It's time to go!

Good morning to you, Lord Ains.

Mm.

Ah, always here well ahead of schedule.

You are permitted to enjoy your breakfast at the very least.

To be frank, serving you is my joy,

and the greatest honor in my life.

That goes for the rest of the maids

and the eight-edge assassins, as well.

We only come early because, with you,

we treasure every moment.

It was not my intent to reprimand you.

But did you rest well yesterday?

I did!

In order to serve the Supreme One

with every fiber of my being,

I ensured that I rested most thoroughly.

I see.

It's like we're running a sweatshop here.

If I don't order them to rest,

they'll work themselves to death!

Loyalty is nice, but there's a limit!

And they're alive, so I can't just reprogram them

like when they were NPCs.

Lord Ains.

Lord Demiurge is here to meet with you.

If you're looking for Albedo, she's off.

My lord. She's "off"?

I requested that she spend the day in leisure

with the other female floor guardians.

And this

is something I put together for the male floor guardians.

I had hoped to include Sebas,

but he's occupied with Tuare today.

I'll invite him next time.

What is it?

An information circular.

Come to me, my cavalry beast!

Whoa!

That's way more fancy than a regular bicorn!

Look his horns. And his muscles are so taut!

Indeed so!

He's truly worthy of the title "War Bicorn Lord."

Although, technically, any level 100 Bicorn

would look like this.

I see. So what do you call him, then?

A bicorn. I just said.

I don't mean its species! Its name!

Does he need one?

That's up to you since he's your pet.

He's more of a weapon than a pet, actually.

Also, I'm not quite certain that I'm summoning

the same bicorn each time.

Well, you could always ask Kyouhukou,

since he's so good at summoning things.

I don't know if that expertise applies to anything

other than cockroaches, though.

Kyouhukou?

I know he's loyal to Nazarick, so I feel bad

for disliking him, but his appearance

is rather distressing.

Yeah. No kidding.

His family can never behave!

They skitter up in your clothes and it's just the worst!

I can feel their little legs now!

That's enough!

You're making me positively itchy! How vile!

I'm relieved to see that everyone is on the same page.

Back to the bicorn.

Are you gonna name him or not?

If I did, I would want it to have a dignified name.

Something that embodies my passion

and dedication for Lord Ains!

How about "Top of the World?"

Lord Ains certainly is

the top of the world, but is it appropriate to ride on him?
