This Is An Overlord Fanfic. Maybe… - Chapter 32

[ 5:59 ]

*Snore*

In a certain apartment, Yuki can be seen sleeping inside his unlit bedroom while drooling over himself.

He stayed up so late last night due to a particular in-game event that he need to finish as quickly as possible. Quickly as other Players that is, since it doesn’t really need to be finished that fast actually. Yuki is just too paranoid of it having a secret bonus for the Player that managed to finish it first.

Though he didn’t get one so he just kinda tired himself up for nothing.

So because of this, he got drained so hard. He’s so tired that he didn’t even take a shower or change clothes before going to bed, he just straight-up crash on his Bed then sleep after logging out on YGGDRASIL.

*Tut*

*Tut*

*Tut*

*FBI! OPEN UP! BOOOMM!!* (Alarm-Clock SFX)

But while he’s in the middle of enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by hundreds of Anime Titties, a loud noise had suddenly rung close to him, startling the heck out of him, thus pulling him out of his imaginary bubble.

“…. Uaah~ WHO DARES!?” As fast as Yuki can, he suddenly jumps out of the bed and puts a fighting stance while looking in every direction of his room.

While looking around, one can see from Yuki’s face that half of his soul is still in the Dream realm as he looks like a drunken man.

After a moment of realization, Yuki dropped down his hand while sighing heavily.

“… Why did I ever think that putting that in the alarm is a good idea? Aissh~ dammit.”

After ruffling his hair in annoyance and turning off the alarm, he closes his eyes again and slams his body back on the bed.

Right now, Yuki wants to do nothing but sleep and see hundreds of nȧkėd Onee-san engulfing his whole vision, and for him, nothing in this world can make him stop doing that right now.

Or so he thought, cause before he could even re-enter his Dream realm again, a gale of wind together with a sudden realization of today’s activities had caused for his eyes to fȯrċɨbŀƴ open again.

“… *Sigh* Right, today is the day.”

After remembering the reason why he set up his alarm in the first place, though extremely annoyed, Yuki slowly stands up from the bed and proceeds to go out of the bedroom.

He actually didn’t want to wake up yet, heck he will choose that 100 percent if today is just your everyday normal sad day, but he simply has no choice since he has an important thing to do today.

So he lazily drags himself inside the bathroom and splashed his face with some cold water to wake up his sleeping soul.

After he did that, finally awake, albeit looking half asleep, he finally walked outside the bathroom, ready to do the things he always does in the morning.

His everyday routine after waking up.

After that, his morning-shower routine.

Then, he proceeds to eat his breakfast while watching some “Anime”.

And last but not least, going towards his balcony to taste some fresh and slightly polluted air in the morning. Just to relax his mind, making it ready for the stress it’ll take for the rest of the day.

Only after all that, is when he can finally enter his Gaming Room and start the real deal.

“.. Alright, it’s time.”

He picked up the VR helmet and put it in his head. Next, he lays down on his Neuro-Terminal and picks up the Neural Cord then aligns it towards his Neural Port.

Unlike the First time he did it, the hesitation is not there anymore as he pushes it all inside in one motion.

“.. agh~” Though the slight mȯȧning is still there.

The VR helmet glowed and his vision suddenly changed after that.

He scrolls all the windows of apps in front of him and stopped in a certain Icon where the displayed logo, is the YGGDRASIL’S logo.

He slowly clicks it and a login screen appears in front of him.

“… log in.”

Immediately after saying that, everything around him turned black.

∆∆∆∆∆

At the Piercing Crystal Plains, a place in Helheim, a group of Players is to be seen.

This group of rowdy Players is, of course, the members of the newly formed guild, Ainz Ooal Gown.

Yesterday, Touch me had finished setting up the whole Guild thing, and today is their first mission as a Guild. That’s why failure is not on their to-do list as they need to give it with all they got.

That’s also the reason why they are all fully equipped with their main Equipment since this dungeon that they will about to raid is not an easy one.

In preparation for their raid on the newly discovered dungeon, the Great Tomb of Nazarick, 30 guild members are currently present.

Though they’re still missing one member to be fully complete.

“… Touch-san, have you message Raizel already? He’s still not here.” Momonga walks towards Touch me and asks him about Yuki.

“… Oh, yeah. I already contacted him and he said that he just did something and he’s already on his way here.” Touch me replies to Momonga.

“.. Oh okay. Thanks.” Momonga said as he noticed his three Guild members approaching him.

A moment ago, Momonga asked Nubo, Flatfoot, and Nishikienrai to scout and check the surroundings to make sure that no one is spying on them. And the three agreed.

After a couple of minutes after that, the three of them came back and reported that no one js spying on them and that the surroundings are clear of enemies.

After that, Momonga announced to his whole Guildmates that they should do their final equipment preparations since they’re just waiting for Yuki to arrive and they will immediately proceed towards the Grenbera Swamp after that.

They all did what Momonga said but not long after that, a [ Gate ] suddenly appeared near them all, startling some of the Guild Members.

From the [ Gate ], Yuki stepped out, fully equipped with a new set of black Armor. An Armor that’s new to all of them.

( The Armor )

“… Yo.”

Yuki simply greets his Guildmates and vice-versa.

They all discussed a few things after that before they finally begin their March towards the Grenbera Swamp, the location of their targeted place.

∆∆∆∆∆

While on their way. The Guild encounters several obstacles but manages to bypass everything with ease and without anyone getting harmed.

It didn’t take them that long before they finally arrived in front of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, though they didn’t step any closer to it yet as they might trigger the whole place.

They all scouted the vicinity again after that to make sure that no one other than them is here right now.

Finding no general threats, Blue Planet conjures a makeshift base for the guild to plan their next course of action.

Even though they already planned this several times already, they still need to make things clear about what everyone should do inside the Tomb since the plan they made yesterday isn’t that solid yet. There’s still some part of their plan that is yet to be addressed, for example, the group which everyone should be belonged to.

Since there are only a few powerhouses within their Guild, and that some of the members are not compatible to be within the same group. Like how some of them lack of Magic Casters or Tanks, or Fighters, etc. Or if not within that, they just lack someone who’ll carry them. Like for sure, they’re complete in terms of classes, but all of them are pretty average, they still need a powerhouse within them that’ll carry them through the floor so they won’t be trashed by some bosses.

Punitto Moe suggested to them that all of them should have different parties for the dungeon expedition.

However, Tabula argues against him, alongside some other members believing to stay in their current parties. The same one they had whenever they’re doing expeditions.

The decision is given to Momonga, but since he doesn’t want to come out as someone that favors a certain side more than the other, he decided to just hold a vote then.

Though in the end, Tabula and the other’s decision came out victorious. They stick with their current parties.

When it comes to their strategy, they also stick to their usual strategy for Raiding.

They split themselves into different teams and spread throughout the Dungeons. That’s what they always do, believing that they can conquer the dungeon fast by doing it this way.

So given by their plan, and since the Tomb of Nazarick is composed of Six floors, they all group themselves into 4 teams with 6 members each.

But since they stick with their current parties, that means Yuki is alone by himself on this raid too.

Since the whole Guild knows how Yuki loves to do some soloing, they all agreed to leave the first floor to him.

Not just because they believed in his strength as a Player, because they also love to see him fail and if possible, die.

Since they know how confident Yuki is when he said that he wanted to solo the first floor, they all thought that it will be hilarious if he fails. They wanted to see what kind of expressions, the great and undefeated Yuki will make after the Raid if that ever happens.

Since Yuki loves to troll them all by scaring the sh*t out of them by suddenly appearing in front of them with his scary avatar, they just all wanted to get back at him somehow. And if Yuki actually failed the first floor, then they can all just go to it and finish it by themselves.

Though there’s no harm in their decision as they’re not actually doing this on purpose to get Yuki killed. It’s all for the sake of fun in their perspectives. They don’t know Yuki’s penalty for dying in the first place, actually, if they know it, they’ll be the one that will stop Yuki from being a Solo-Player in the first place.

But still, some of them tried to argue about this decision, clearly worried about him, but the majority agreed and Yuki insisted anyway so no one can say about it anymore.

“… Raizel. It’s not like I’m doubting you or anything but, even for you, going alone and soloing the first floor is still…” Peroroncino said to Yuki as he was still worried about him.

He’s aware of how important and valuable Yuki’s items are so if he dies, he will surely lose some of it, especially now that Yuki finally equipped his Main ones so the losses for him will surely be big.

Though still unchanging, Yuki just ȧssured Peroronchino that he will be fine and he should just worry about himself and his own team instead. To which he complies with a heavy sigh.

They ended up their meeting after a couple more discussions and made one final swoop around the area.

They all leave the makeshift base that Blue Planet had created and go back in front of the Tomb, finally ready to start their raid.

“… Alright everyone, here we go!” Touch me who’s in front, shouted to his whole Guildmates as they all March forward towards the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

And just as everyone expected, upon getting closer into the tomb, their presence initiates the Dungeon’s defenses.

Which led to the beginning of their raid.
