Jeez, I didn't think about how embarrassing speaking like this would be after I mellowed out for so long. Why is acting like a chuuni badass so hard to do!?

All of the floor guardians looked quite astonished to see me, especially seeing  my...'unique' entrance...and how their bone daddy ended up transforming the moment I arrived...I hope I don't have to explain that to anyone

"Yes, behold Lord Orion has appeared before, bow and show your true loyal fealty as he graces you in his all powerful glory. Feel his presence bless you to your very souls, as his overwhelming power graces you with his blessings!"

Mako insisted that I did so, so I relinquished the thought of coming in normally. So, in the end...I sat upon a throne mounted on her back, and even after I tried convincing her, she still stripped herself of her armour and most of her clothes in order to draw more attention to myself

"Yes, acknowledge my presence, as I have returned after so long from the lands of the Great Abyss. Feeling the presence of the lonely Shub-Nigurth, and holding for the ancient origins, I have returned far more powerful than before." I was being honest, if not slightly exaggerated

"And although my strength has been significantly weakened from the battles fought against the ancient gods that attempted to bind my soul, I have returned with greater powers than before, and shall grow far more powerful than I had ever thought possible!"

. . .

It really is awkward explaining how I died and am now level one again, especially with how I'm going full chun with this. My Eighth Grade Syndrome might just come back if I keep this up.

"Understood Lord Orion, we will honor your wishes for us to not bother you as you have been injured in your battle against the abyssal monstrosities" Albedo stepped forward, twitching about as she spoke

"It is alright," I started feeling like something was off when she kept twitching "all I ask is that, while I recover, we can all work well together in our endeavors in this world, and all others. Now, Serena, what is your report?" I climbed off of Mako as she frowned.

. . .

Wait, what?

"Flatlands?!" Suzu was more stunned by this revelation than I was, as she thought we were simply stuck in Ygdrassil, but it turns out that we are in a completely separate world entirely

"Mare, is it possible to camouflage the Great Tomb as a hill?" I asked him as he fluttered with his skirt

"It would be difficult to do so with only magic" and Serena gave a conjecture as well "plus, a lone hill would look strange in these barren flatlands, my lord."

I weighed my options. It'sguide likely that magic has been changed from the fundamentals like the game was, so I should assume that dirt conjured from magic shouldn't disappear with time

"Mare, I give you permission to cover the majority of the tomb with dirt to make it appear to be a hill, and to leave the top camouflaged using a special mana crystal I keep in the tower. Can you make many more, hollowed out hills, in order to hold the Undead and Golem troops in so that we may defend the tomb if need be" I gave the orders, as everyone bowed and accepted them

"As expected of Lord Ori, he has come up with the perfect plan, even allowing us to tarnish the sanctity of his home and palace for the sake of our safety and our own well being." Demiurge started spouting things I didn't listen to

As Suzu and I had gone through the motions, we were still unsure of what we should do, so we simply left to rethink our plans

Floor Guardians after the meeting

They all stood still, bowing in respect towards the great beings who had blessed them with their presence

"Well, I do believe that our pledges of fidelity were quite lacking, as we were greeting the very lord of the supreme beings, but I believe we can work on simply being aware of his presence first. After all, a floor guardian should be aware of their master's whereabouts." Demiurge went through his plans on how all the floor guardians could have improved, as he gave Mare the cue for him to leave

As they all began talking amongst themselves, Aura peeked towards the two other women in the area, looking for her own conversation parteners, only to find the succubus and vampire to be very ashamed of themselves, sulking on their hands and knees

"Hey, chins up you two, it's not your faults that you couldn't notice our Lord's presence while I could, if only a little. He can easily hide his power if he wanted to, and make us aware when he wants to as well~!" She called out to the two sulken maidens, trying to spring a conversation, without seeing them upset

"It's not that we didn't notice him, of course we had...it's the fact...," Shalltear had begun, as Albedo raised her head "that we were unable to serve and protect our Lord in his most dire hours."

"If he had been k-k-...killed...What would we have done if we found out what had happened to him, and had not done anything to aide him in his conquest against his foes?" They put a a picture to their worries that even Aura despaired at

Their heads further lowered as they heard Demiurge, Mare, and Cocytus talk about their two lords having a child together, with Aura blushing at certain thoughts

"And to think...I had gotten overly excited just from the graciousness of our lord and lady to show themselves to us...I even drenched myself..."

That sparked the flames inside of both Aura and Albedo as they started a feud about who was more deserving of you, with Demiurge eavesdropping the entire time.

"I wonder...should I create a potion in order to become female as well in order to please our lord?..." Demiurge pondered as Mare stared at him in confusion, with Uncle Cocytus going on a mindlessly hopeful rant in the distance

"I wonder why they don't just agree to all be his concubines and join his jar that way? It would be a simple matter of asking Lady Momonga for permission." And with that, the males walked away from the largely overblown catfight

You and Suzu, after the meeting

"Why did you ride in on Mako!?"
"I couldn't get her to stop, she just put me on the throne, and threw it on her back before rushing to the arena!"
"Couldn't you have said something, anything!?"
"No she was already there before I new it, she is a largely all rounded build, but I capped almost all physical stats I could!"

With you and Suzu going back and forth about how everything had gone to Hell and back with their plans, and how the guardians simply see them as beings beyond gods, only one sentence could run through either of your minds

"So...What the Hell do we do now?..."

(So, how was that? I fleshed out how you act, based on a chunibyou personality, with dramatic flare and jojo references as your only safekeeping at the moment, and currently being the weakest being stat wise in all of the Tomb. You now know how crazily devoted the NPCs are as well...do you think I did well, I couldn't help but feel I forced my way through that slightly...I really hope you like it, since I still haven't gotten to a point where I can take many liberties. And before you say that somebody else came up with the dumb hills and covering the tomb in dirt to save mana, let me just remind you. You were an admin, GM, and one of the original minds behind the games plans and layout, as well as the former guild master of Ainz Ooal Gown, so you can have similar plans to other people if they are good. Hope you enjoy the new chapter)

Ciao~!
