(Y/n): hm? seems valuable I'll let Ainz get a look at it

You stand up after digging through the ashes of that mediocre necromancer finding a black orb holding it between two claws if only you could sense magic a skill you don't envy surprisingly as Narberal returned to you 

(Y/n): Narberal, do you know what this is?

She looks at the orb studying it before nodding

Narberal: I apologize my lord, but I do not know.

(Y/n): no need for apologies what did you find of that corpse?

Narberal: only these daggers my lord her armor was damaged from your feast.

She hands you the stilettoes looking at them testing the pointiness pricking your finger your black blood pooling at the wound smudging it with your thumb

(Y/n): not a bad piercing weapon where is Hamsuke?

Narberal: I had it guard the body until someone else can acquire the corpse.

(Y/n): wonderful let's go find Ainz now.

Walking up the steps of the mausoleum you spot Ainz carrying Nfirea in his arms waving at him

Ainz: is something the matter?

(Y/n): nothing, I finished picking at the ashes found this.

You present him the orb

Ainz: what is that?

(Y/n): don't know, but when that mongrel was using his spells against Narberal he held onto it tightly.

Ainz: is that so [All Appraisal Magic Item] what is this? The Orb of Death...and it's an intelligent item "he studied it in your hands before taking it in his own" what a strange item...woah, its a really intelligent magic item I permit you to speak.

(Y/n): wait, is it speaking you why didn't it speak with me?

Narberal: an item that doesn't acknowledge it's new master should be destroyed, Lord Ainz.

(Y/n): there's no need, but did it not think I was worthy or something?

Ainz: no, it appears to speak with those have already died you still draw breath Gier.

(Y/n): then what is it saying now?

Ainz: it wishes to swear fealty to me.

(Y/n): curious.

Hamsuke enters the mausoleum meaning the corpse was transported to Nazarick

Ainz: Hamsuke.

Hamsuke: what does my lord desire?

Ainz: take it.

He tosses it to Hamsuke both yours and Narberal's eyes widening at the action as it nimbly catches it

Hamsuke: may I ask my lord about this item?

Ainz: it's a magic item you can use it, right?

 Hamsuke: I should be able to, but it's too noisy! I want to return it to milord!

(Y/n): your giving it to the hamster not to be rude, but the Wise King of The Forest isn't really that...wise.

Narberal: I must agree with Lord Gier it is only a newcomer, Lord Ainz

Ainz: though I've already cast anti-detection spells on it I can't say it's perfectly safe, so it's better to hand it to Hamsuke.

(Y/n): it is the safest option.
