Then Ash was imprisoned in the dungeon. Selene was next to him.

"Lord Ash...... I'm so sorry, I didn't expect this to be ......" Selene cowered in the corner, her head bowed melancholy.

"It's okay," Ash comforted, "it's not your fault, your father is also for the tribe, I can understand!" ”

“…… Can you understand? Selene hugged her knees and curled up in a ball. Mistress Ash......" she muttered.

……

"Mr. Momo, do you know how to clear the quest 'Old Man of Time in the Eternal Realm'?"

The man in armor has changed his outfit, and he is no different from those adventurers in Ylang City.

"You know, this copy is mainly ......" (20,000 words of the big guy's speech are omitted below)

Ainz was dressed in black armor, and every step made a "click" sound of metal colliding.

“……”

Lori rolled her eyes at the sky: her idiot brother met Anz in the association, and then ran over, and she had such a happy chat all the way......

Although the content of their conversation was not understood by the other three people and one beast......

As for which three people and one beast it was, it went back to the Adventurers' Guild an hour ago.

"Ylang City Adventurers' Association"

Ainz led Nabe to the bounty bar, where he polished the bounty in the middle for a moment. "This task...... Nabe, what do you think? Ainz asked, looking at Nabe.

Nabe was thinking about how to kill the humans here with a look of disgust. When she heard Ainz call her name, she immediately put away her murderous eyes: "Well, Mr. Momo, I think it's okay." Nabe responded.

"You didn't even look at it......" Ainz raised his forehead.

Immediately, Ainz tore off the bounty in the envious and jealous eyes of the adventurers, "Then, I'll take this task." ”

“……”

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out from the gate – "Hey! Big guy! ”

Yiyan took Lori's hand and ran towards Anz, "What a coincidence, I was able to meet you here!" ”

"Hmm......" Anz embarrassed.

"What about the task?" Yiyan glanced at the bounty in Anz's hand, "Big guy, let's form a team and brush it together!" ”

"......" Ainz twitched the corners of his mouth, although he couldn't make any expressions as a skeleton - but what kind of fuss was this new term for the profession......

"Okay." Ainz nodded.

Then the four of them left.

The adventurers next to them were stunned.

……

"You're the client—Shikibu?" Ainz asked, somewhat surprised.

Shouldn't the person who set up the golden commission be some kind of pot-bellied aristocrat? How...... So young?

"Hmm." The girl smiled and nodded, responding to Ainz. She sat reclining on the sofa, and her first impression was very quiet.

She was only about 20 years old, wearing a light blue trench coat, her long hair tucked in the robe, bangs combed on one side, and a red gem inlaid at the neckline of the trench coat, which was very elegant.

Noble girl? Well, possibly, let's ask some questions about commissioning first. Ainz thought.

"Well, excuse me, why are you wearing such thick armor?" The girl, no, it should be Shikibe, she asked politely.

"Oh, sorry, it's not convenient to talk to outsiders about this." Ainz said.

Because of the helmet, Shikibe couldn't see any of Ainz's mood, and even his tone was so flat that he couldn't feel anything.

"It's rude." Shikibe smiled.

"It's okay." Ainz waved his hand, "So, about the commission......"

"It should have been written clearly on the power of attorney, right?" Shikibu interrupted Ainz, "Just protect us to the Elven Forest, you don't need to know anything else, as for the bounty ......" Shikibu took out a money bag and put it on the coffee table, "Here are 100 gold coins, and the rest is up to you when it's successfully completed." ”

"Hmm...... It's okay to ......," Ainz didn't ask much.

Who calls themselves short of money! The currency in the World Tree cannot be used...... And the most important thing is that I still owe Ash 2 gold coins and haven't paid it back!

"But when you say 'we'......"

"Well, there's another person, it's my sister." Shikibe smiled, "No problem, right?" ”

"......," Ainz hesitated for a moment. If there are two people, it is relatively more difficult to protect, and although it is not a big problem, I hope that the bounty can be increased a little more. Ainz said.

Shikibe's expression froze, but quickly returned to normal. "Well, bounties aren't an issue, but do you have any other teammates?"

"And three more."

"That's good, since we're all here, let's go now."

……

Ash pulled out a can of Coke, "Oh, are you thirsty?" He asked, handing the Coke to the elf.
