(damn, half the community just died over a glorified nft shame...I didn't get her either, but at least they took pity on me because I did a sad roll on the friend points and got Artoria Lily...all is good-said the author who is seething)

Ainz: wah, the lizardmen have made great progress.

He arrives at Neu Aztlan through the waystone Albedo next to him admiring the city nearby lizardmen notice him and kneel down in worship

Ainz: no need for such actions go along with your schedules...

The lizardmen get up and resume with their own things spotting the tallest structure to be the step pyramid he begins his trek towards it

Albedo: young lady Sif had truly outdone herself don't you think so, Lord Ainz?

Ainz: hm, yes...she has...perhaps too much.

He stares up the step pyramid impressed, but grows weary at the number of stairs he's going to need to climb in order to get up there

Ainz: 'I'm not going to climb those' stay close Albedo I'm going to get us up there.

He waves his staff giving a short glow before it dims out still at the bottom

Ainz: eh, it's really going to make me walk them.

Albedo: is there an issue?

On the third level of the pyramid he notes the designs of the décor climbing the stairs laying  hand on the wall his hand following the carvings in the wall

Ainz: this pyramid has multiple anti-infiltration seals of varying types etched onto the pyramids, so we're gonna have to walk our way up...'damn it, (Y/n).'

At the top of the pyramid the interior was akin to a lobby for a corporate building resting areas dotted around the room sitting at one of the areas tapping a pen against of your horns

(Y/n): mass flow, acceleration, and Mercury's wings...what if I add reality warp to distort time I'm gonna need Ainz to teach me that one...

You write down the formula down on paper trying to figure out a way to solve your issue when it comes to running on unstable grounds

(Y/n): Nergal's gift...hm, don't need help with summoning undead.

Ainz: if I weren't undead I would be by the end of the stairs, but the fact that I still needed to climb them wasting precious time irked me.

(Y/n): Ainz, sorry about that as the centerpiece of Neu Aztlan I had to take every measure even against us...

You answer him still writing down the tapping of his staff on the floor followed by Albedo's heels growing louder until they stand behind you

(Y/n): Albedo, you look lovely as ever.

Albedo: thank you Lord Gier, many yearn to see you again at the Tomb.

(Y/n): it has been some time since I last visited the Tomb.

Ainz: yes, your paperwork is piling up.

You grimace at the thought tapping your pencil repeatedly on the table

(Y/n): eh, I can't dump it on anyone...I should get someone-

Ainz: no, management over the Tomb's military is yours and yours only.

The tip of your pencil breaks after tapping it too hard on the table at his words

(Y/n): damn...well, I guess your here to see them.

Ainz: you did say it was urgent, I left Narberal at the outskirts of the Empire's capital so we have to wrap this up quickly.
