I will now decide the doctrine that Nazarick will follow henceforth.
Overseer of the guardians of Nazarick, Albedo.
As well as Nazarick's ultimate strategist, Demiurge.
Yes.
Now that we have put most of my initial plans into motion,
tell everyone how you believe Nazarick should move forward.
I allow any others that may have ideas to raise their hands as well.
In order to do so, Demiurge,
explain the current situation to the others so that it is easily understood.
To begin, explain Nazarick's actions against the kingdom.
Understood.
This way, I can find out
what Demiurge was thinking while sounding like I already know.
After all, I'm a beginner at this kind of thing.
The first thing we should focus on is Nazarick's survival.
Second would be spreading the name of Ainz Ooal Gown throughout the world.
Well, that's something I want to do in hopes of finding
any comrades that may have made it over here,
so it may be better to put that lower on the list...
We also need to strengthen Nazarick and collect more information...
Everyone.
Thanks to Mare's group,
we have subjugated all the leaders of the Eight Fingers.
Now, Nazarick has control over the underworld of Re-Estize Kingdom.
We now have a stepping stone
toward Lord Ainz's ultimate objective of world domination!
I pray there are no fools that were unaware of our ultimate objective!

World domination?!
When was something like that decided?!
No, calm down.
What if they all find out that I was the only one that didn't know?!
Wait.
Now that I think about it, I guess world domination isn't a bad idea.
Whether fame or infamy, it'll still spread our name.
But if my comrades find out...
Well, when the time comes,
I'll just have to apologize for failing to manage Nazarick properly...
Hm?
Y-You remembered.
Of course.
I, Demiurge, could never forget any word or line that you have ever spoken.
I see. From that time, huh?
Exactly so!
That time...
Exactly so!
What time?!
I see. I am very pleased, Demiurge.
Thank you very much.
However, world domination is a difficult thing.
It is as you say.
So... How do you think we should move forward?
I humbly suggest that we announce Nazarick to the public.
Since the ones who controlled Shalltear continue to move behind the scenes,
staying in the shadows will only further encumber us.
I agree.
There will no longer be a need to dispatch a select few to hunt for them.
Yes, a very appealing idea.
By controlling the kingdom from the shadows,
you wanted the kingdom to recognize Nazarick as an organization.
But, the idea of affiliating with a country and serving under them is unacceptable.
For myself, as well.
The current state of that kingdom is completely unappealing.
Save for one individual.
Furthermore, serving another country would limit our movements.
If the ones who controlled Shalltear are a part of an organization,
they may use such a situation against us.
Therefore, Lord Ainz,
I propose that we form our own country known as the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
Let me tell you now, just in case.
From the beginning, Lord Ainz has been thinking of doing this.
What?!
Of course, a talentless individual such as myself
could never fully understand the plans of one who is the crystallization of wisdom.
At most, I can understand some of the outermost surface.
N-No. As expected from the number one strategist of Nazarick.
I-I am surprised you detected my plans, Demiurge.
Anyone would realize such a thing if they observed your actions until now, Lord Ainz.
I see. It must have been that thing I did...
Exactly so.
And that other thing.
Exactly so!
Again, what things?!
I see. So, Demiurge. What action do you think was most important?
I believe it to be Carne Village.
True. That had gone well.
With all due respect, it was a village that Lord Ainz directly subjugated.
It would have been impossible to have not gone well.
The human village?
I-I didn't realize...
It would have been easy for Lord Ainz to eradicate the humans,
but he chose to rule over them peacefully.
In other words, Lord Ainz had already begun to think about world domination
and used that village for experimentation!
Miss Enri, is Mr. Nphirea still sleeping?
I wonder.
I think he was working until late last night.
The weather is so nice today!
What's for breakfast today?
We were able to get meat thanks to all of you, Mr. Kaijali,
so I worked hard to make some delicious soup!
So ripped!
Th-That's not true at all.
No, you've really toned up, Miss.
Good morning, Enri.
Chief! Good morning!
Good morning.
Looks like Mr. Goblin is doing well.
Yes. We'll be helping in the fields today as well!
That's such a great help!
We are so thankful for you and the goblins.
If you all weren't here, we would have had to abandon this village.
Are we still lacking help, after all?
Well, the few villagers that managed to survive have moved here, but...
We've got a long way to go.
The only person that moved here from the city is that ex-adventurer, Miss Britta.
There aren't many crazy people willing to come to a dangerous area like this.
What are you saying, Dear?
Don't say such negative things.
But...
That recent government official told us they would lower our taxes for a while.
They also said we would be exempt from summons of civil service.
We can take the time to rebuild ourselves properly.
That's right. I'm sure we will eventually find people willing to move here!
We'll try our best as well!
You're right. Lord Gown saved our lives.
We have to survive and pay him back, no matter how meager it may be.
Yes. I am forever thankful for Lord Gown.
What a terrible smell.
Yes...
Nphirea, breakfast is ready. Please come join us with your grandmother.
Good morning, Enri.
It's amazing, Enri!
Wh-What happened, Nphirea?
Listen! I've finally succeeded in making a new potion!
This is groundbreaking!
I mixed the various solutions and herbs I've received
and the potion turned purple!
Okay!
Please stop there.
Looks like he's high off the fumes.
Miss, why not leave this to me and go on home?
I'll douse him with some cold water and bring him over once he's calmed down.
Are you sure?
No problem!
Then, I leave it to you.
What are you doing?
Brother, aren't you in love with the miss?
Then you should focus on her more than your medicines.
I will try my best.
"Trying your best" ain't enough.
Why don't you try doing a strength appeal, first?
I have no confidence in my physical strength...
You got this thing right here, brother.
I'll make a pose like this when it's time for you to make your appeal!
Make sure to act and talk in a way that'll make the miss fall in love.
This'll be the pose! This!
If I think you should push a little further, I'll make this pose!
Y-Yeah.
And then, this! And this! This! And this! As well as this!
Miss Enri is gonna be my bride!
Hey! Have you forgotten our pact not to make any moves on Miss Enri?!
That's right! Beating others to the punch isn't allowed!
You guys. It's obvious that as leader, I'll get the miss!
Don't joke around, Jugem! Just 'cause you're a bit stronger!
Yeah! Yeah! Get him!
Goodness, Mr. Jugem and the others...
Ruby powder... Wings of Magic...
Ash tree shavings... Milky emulsion... M... Milky...
Nphi, you okay?
Yeah! I'm... all right. Enri...
Sorry, Grandma is so engrossed in our research.
Soup...
All of you are wasting your time.
The battle has already been won.
Look! This glistening meat!
I just ate some meat. But there was more at the bottom of my soup bowl.
Each person was supposed to only receive one piece.
In other words, this here is true love!
Don't joke around!
Isn't that just your imagination?
The thing you suspected was meat was probably a piece of potato or something.
Please realize it, already.
She is creeped out by you.
To begin with, our god conveyed such to us.
"Be sure to make Enri happy."
Isn't your god an evil one?
Nphi?!
I'll have him rest in the bedroom a bit.
Isn't it normally the other way around?
Now, don't say that.
She looked so scary! Like this!
Jugem and the others aren't just protecting the lives of the villagers.
With our parents gone, they also care for us and cheer us up.
So, what can I do for Jugem and the others?
All right, vigilante members. Are you ready?
Pull!
Shoot!
Looking good!
With a fine row of arrows like this,
we'll be able to keep enemies that come near the wall at bay!
All right! We did it!
Okay. Prepare for the second wave!
Sis! I want to help, too!
Thank you, Nemu.
I'm fine here, so will you please take care of the job I gave you yesterday?
Okay.
She used to be so energetic and said such spoiled things.
Since then, Nemu has become such a good girl...
Something wrong?
Mr. Kaijali. It seems I used the knife a little too roughly...
You gotta be careful.
There's no blacksmith in this town.
Huh?
We can't get maintenance done on our equipment, either.
Is that so...
Well, we'll think of something eventually!
Well? Have you been able to crush them properly?
Yeah, I got this! Look!
Wow! You've worked hard, Nemu!
But, this stench. It's like brother Nphi.
It's not that bad. Right?
Yeah! Yeah!
Mr. Kaijali. This is a specialty of Carne Village called Enkaeshi.
It's a valuable medicine that can only be made with herbs harvested this time of the year.
So it's an important source of income.
Sorry about what I said, Miss Nemu.
Look. I'm almost out of herbs. I'll finish all of these today!
Well, I think we've gathered all we can in the areas I know they grow.
What?
Hm?
Mr. Kyumei.
Hey.
What's going on, Kyumei?
Something is going on in the Great Forest.
Something?
Could it be the people who attacked the village...?
No, it looks like something deep in the forest.
I'd like to go to the forest and collect herbs in the next two or three days.
That's dangerous, Miss.
The forest'll need to be scouted first.
It's just, our hands are full just helping the villagers.
It's an herb we can only harvest this time of year.
It may be a little dangerous, but...
Well, let me discuss it with the boss.
Please.
Listen up. While Miss Enri is looking for herbs,
we'll split up and scout the nearby area of the Great Forest.
Find out what's going on!
As for Miss Enri's bodyguards...
Gokou.
Yes!
Kaijali.
Yes!
Unlai.
Yes!
You three!
Yeah!
I don't need to tell you this, but make sure no harm comes to the miss!
Yeah!
Also, brother Nphi.
Make sure to take care of Miss Enri, okay?
This is the moment?
Of course! I'll be sure to protect her!
Sparkle.
Thanks, Nphi. Please take care of me.
Huh? Still?!
Um, I've prepared various alchemy items for this! Leave it to me!
Sparkle!
Y-Yeah, I'll leave it to you.
It's Bebeyamok Moss.
If you mix a bit of that in healing potions, it increases their effect a bit.
Oh, is that so?
Is it valuable?
Somewhat. Though, the herb we are looking for is a lot more valuable.
So we don't have to harvest that right now.
Understood!
Wow, brother Nphi is really amazing, huh?
We can't tell any of these plants apart.
I've been wondering.
Is that how it is for all goblins?
Who knows?
None of us have that kind of skill.
Though we can hunt beasts and skin them pretty well.
There's a lot of shade and humidity here...
The plant grows naturally in areas like this.
Let's search around here.
I found some!
I'm so glad you came with us, Nphi!
How lucky.
Is something wrong?
No, I'm just so impressed.
You were able to find the herbs and pick them so skillfully.
I'm a pharmacist, after all.
I think this is pretty normal.
Really?
I believe so.
Something's coming our way.
Let's back off a bit and hide.
What should we do?
Please stay quiet.
A barghest!
It looks like the strong smell of the herbs has masked our scent.
Then, things'll be settled if we leave that kid to die.
Protecting the miss is our top priority.
Nphi...
Okay, let's save him.
Nphi!
We have to find out why that goblin ran all the way out here.
Something dangerous might be approaching the village.
We should avoid any danger!
There's a chance we won't win!
I don't have any power to fight, so this may be foolish, but...
I believe that if we don't help when there's a chance someone can be saved,
we are aiding the assailant.
I don't want to become like those people who hurt the weak! Please!
Can't be helped. Let's go!
Hey, there, little doggy!
If you want to play, we'll play! Bring it on.
All right! Kill it!
Reinforce Armor!
Brother Nphi! Thanks for the save!
It's not sticky enough to completely stop the beast!
Attack it all at once!
Watch out!
Duck!
What tribe are all of you from?
We have to treat your wounds first!
What should we do, Nphi?
You've lost a lot of blood.
P-Poison?!
I know that it's something I should give to Lord Gown first, but...
Okay. With this I can tell Lord Gown that the experiment was a success!
Even though it was a gross color, that thing is pretty amazing!
Uh. No. Um... Thank you very much.
Yeah. Giving thanks is important, kid.
I'm not a kid! I'm the fourth son of the Ah, leader of the Gigu tribe!
So your name is Agu.
Then, Agu. Why are you running with wounds all over your body?
I was attacked, so I ran.
That's too short of an explanation.
What kind of monster attacked you?
I was attacked by the minions under the Giant of the East.
Giant of the East?
The Giant of the East and the Demon Snake of the West have allied together!

Next Episode
Carne Village, a place once dragged into the sinister schemes of the Slane Theocracy.
Though their population had sharply decreased,
they are finally recovering their way of life
with the help of the goblins summoned by Enri.
After discovering the unsettling changes of the Great Forest,
Enri heads to E-Rantel in order to speak with the adventurer's guild
and run some errands.
Chapter 3, Enri's Upheaval and Hectic Days.
How will you use that life of yours which was once saved?
