Somewhere in the Lost Forest, a red light flashed.

……

Somewhere in the Elven Forest, Ainz and Nabe sprang through the forest, chasing the dark shadow in front of them.

Suddenly, a loud bang rang in the sky, reaching Ainz's ears.

"Yo! Ainz Sama! Ash shouted down.

"......" Ainz silently rolled his eyes - how could I see you anywhere.

Ash turned on the flying magic to make it easier for him to chase the beast-eared girl, but as he moved inside, the canopy became denser and denser, and when he saw the very conspicuous Ainz in black armor, Ash said hello and fell from the sky.

Nabe stopped in front of Ainz and a magic circle lit up in her hand.

"Nabe! Stop it! Ainz said.

"Yes, Momo...... Mr. Nabe immediately put away her magic and stood beside Ainz.

Whatever the reason, as long as it is an order given by the Supreme Being, it must be carried out.

"What are you doing here?" Ash asked, and they stopped.

Whether it was the woman in black that Ainz was looking for or the beast-eared girl that Ash was going to catch, the two black shadows were missing at the moment.

"Chasing," Ainz waved his hand, "Looks like he's being watched." ”

"Huh? Who would dare to spy on you? Ash asked, confused.

"I don't know, it's also the organization that attacked the village last time." "After all, even stellar Seraphs can appear, so what's impossible in this world?" ”

"......" Ash was stunned, "Makes sense!" ”

"So what's next?" He asked.

"Keep looking." Ainz replied crisply.

……

Deep in the Elven Forest - Outside the Lost Forest:

The forest knows its horror as soon as it comes within its reach - from the sky downwards, boundless! Endless green!

Terror!

Beneath the dense canopy, the ground became very dark because of the sunlight shrouded in the sun by the giant trees. Knee-high weeds, swarthy tree trunks, and occasional wails make this quiet place even more terrifying.

In this terrifying sea of green, a team of adventurers struggling to sneak inside.

"Egil, there's a light ahead, let's hurry up!" An adventurer with a huge bow and arrow on his back excitedly pointed to a place in the distance where the sun was shining in.

"Well, let's take a break ahead, we've been walking in the Elven Forest for too long." The man named Egil moved his paralyzed shoulders, nodded, and said.

He walked at the front of the group, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, a huge silver shield more than half a man tall in his right hand, and a long sword in his left hand.

"Hey, I don't know who led the way...... "A small man at the end of the line muttered unpleasantly.

Egir was stunned when he heard his taunt, his face expressionless and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"What? It's not the captain's fault! Tucker was not happy and said angrily, glaring at him with a frown.

"Whose fault is that?" The man said impatiently.

"Stop arguing, let's go out first!" A girl with a wooden staff in the group stopped between them and said.

"I don't think I can get out." The man didn't overdo it, and his tone was a little more restrained.

"Then you're going to die here."

"What? You repeat? ”

"What, want to fight?"

"Hey, hey, don't make any noise, why don't you hurry up and leave if you have the strength to speak!"

“……”

『Probe Scroll· III』

Super Distance Surveillance Scroll II

"Vision Sharing"

Ainz threw three prop scrolls in succession, and as they dissipated into the air, the two black shadows were also revealed in the round mirror.

"Tut-tut, it looks like they're in the same group......" Ash looked thoughtful.

Inside the mirror, two girls stand next to an altar, their backs to the mirror and they can't see what they're doing.

"Looks like some kind of ritual." The skeletal face under Ainz's helmet was expressionless, and his tone was unfazed.

"Ritual ...... orcs," Ash said all over his face, "Wow, so advanced, I want to see it." Anyway, my money was robbed by this girl! ”

"Huh? What money? Ainz asked.

Ash told Ainz about Annie.

"I see, did I miss so much information when I was on a mission......" Anz was silent for a moment, "I'd better spend more time fitting into the town in the future." ”

"......," Ash gave Ainz a blank look.

Nabe didn't know what they were talking about, but at least she didn't feel Ash's hostility.

"Let's go, let's see," said Aintz—

"Go get your platinum coins back."

"Actually, you're just trying to borrow money from me, right?"

“…… Shut up. ”
