Demiurge stepped forward slowly and knelt respectfully on one knee.
"Serving the supreme being is already this subordinate's highest aspiration. If it is a reward..."
"Whatever the Lord bestows would be my supreme honor."
Draco pondered for a long time, then took off the ainz ooal gown ring from his hand.
"I shall give you this guild ring."
"This..." Demiurge was somewhat surprised; the significance represented by this ring was not simple.
"Take it. Consider this my reward for your loyalty."
Demiurge accepted the ring excitedly. Although his face remained calm, the frequency with which his tail wagged behind him increased significantly.
"Then next, Aura? What reward do you want?"
Aura grinned. "Lord, I want rare magic beasts. The Magic Beast Legion..."
"Eh?! Aura, those are my subordinates, I won't give them to you!"
Before she could finish, Kurumi jumped out and blocked Aura's proposal.
Aura pouted; she was truly obsessed with those magic beasts.
"Hmm..."
"The Magic Beast Legion will be stationed in the forest on the Sixth Floor from now on. You'll be able to see them every day."
"But since they've been given to Kurumi, if you want rare magic beasts, Milim's territory has plenty."
"You can go catch them yourself, but remember to do so in moderation."
"No problem, thank you, my Lord!"
Aura nodded excitedly.
Next, when it was Cocytus's turn, he proposed wanting to study methods for forging stronger weapons together with Kurobe.
As a weapon master, Cocytus's forging skills were not bad.
But his forging technique was different from others; while others used fire, he used ice.
Draco naturally agreed to such a beneficial request immediately.
As for Mare, he actually wanted a World Chronicle. Although Draco wasn't sure what he wanted it for, he still found one for him.
Finally, when it came to Shalltear and Albedo, Draco began to get a headache.
"Master, I want a special reward, preferably one that belongs only to me..."
Albedo said this while placing her hand on her lower abdomen.
Shalltear was not so subtle; she said straightforwardly, "I want to bear a child for the Master."
"Ha? Does a vampire like you even have the ability to give birth?"
"And does a succubus like you have the ability?"
"Hehe, I can merge with Master through my spiritual body and give birth to a brand-new spiritual entity."
"As for you, you're completely out of the running."
The two were at each other's throats, looking like they were on the verge of a fight. Draco could only sigh.
"Stop arguing. Pick a different reward."
"..."
In the end, since neither of them wanted anything at the moment, the rewards were put on hold.
After everyone had received their rewards, Draco fixed his gaze on Kurumi, who was full of expectation.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Kurumi's eyes immediately lit up.
"I want to go out and play, and Master can't control me."
It seemed her wings had hardened and she wanted to fly.
Draco raised an eyebrow slightly. "Are you sure? If you get captured by someone else, I won't care."
"Kurumi is very strong now! I won't let anyone bully me!"
Seeing Kurumi's confident expression, Draco said no more.
"Alright then."
"Awesome! Thank you, Master!"
"I don't care where you go, as long as it's not the Eastern Empire. Anywhere else is fine."
"And don't set off on your adventure until after the Founding Festival is over."
"Founding Festival?"
Not just Kurumi, but everyone below raised their heads in confusion.
"Demiurge, the footage of this campaign has been preserved, hasn't it?"
Draco turned to Demiurge, who immediately nodded. "It has been preserved."
"Distribute the footage all over the world. Tell the people that Nazarick has stepped onto the world stage."
"Use the deaths of Kistav's hundred thousand soldiers to announce this feat."
"As you command, my Lord!"
Demiurge's eyes instantly became burning hot.
He could hardly wait!
Draco gave a grand wave of his hand.
"I hereby declare the formal establishment of the Duchy of Nazarick!"
"The Founding Festival will be held in ten days to celebrate the official founding of the Duchy of Nazarick."
Immediately, everyone reacted, kneeling on one knee in perfect unison.
"Long live the Supreme One!" xN
"Long live Nazarick!" xN
...The meeting ended successfully. Everyone left the Great Tomb in high spirits, clearly heading off to prepare for the founding ceremony.
Draco went to the third floor of the tomb, where mountains of corpses were piled up.
While the corpses were still fresh, he began to cast Undead Summoning.
Accompanied by the howling roars of vengeful spirits, the corpses were gradually consumed as one Skeleton Knight after another crawled out from hell.
Their tall frames, paired with pitch-black armor, emitted waves of cold energy. A heart-stopping, terrifying pressure enveloped the surroundings, making it hard to breathe.
Draco nodded in satisfaction, then assigned them to serve as guards on the first three floors of Nazarick.
After finishing this, Draco returned to the tenth floor and took out the World Item 'Greed and Desirelessness' that he had retrieved from Mare.
These two campaigns had granted him a massive amount of experience points. It was time to level up and break through... "Ah!!"
"Don't come any closer!!"
Inside the Room of Truth within the Glacial Prison on the Fourth Floor, Yamsa's limbs were tied to wooden stakes, rendering him unable to move.
At this moment, he was watching the monster before him approach with a face full of terror.
Nirost, the Sin of Position among the Five Sins.
Her skin was a turbid white like that of a drowned corpse, and her body was bloated in the same manner.
Six disgusting tentacles wriggled behind her back, and her octopus-like face was covered in thick lipstick.
Right now, Nirost was gently stroking Yamsa's face.
"Don't be afraid~ I'll be very gentle."
As she spoke, she stripped Yamsa of all his clothes.
His robust physique made Nirost's eyes sparkle, and her bloated body instinctively pressed against him.
"Don't come near me!"
"Kill me! Just kill me!!"
Yamsa screamed hysterically... (Divider)
