Ainz: Damn it...DAMN IT! DAMN IT! DAMN IT!

He repeatedly kicks the ground, the light green coming back over and over again while I'm standing there in shock.

Howler: How...it can't be...

Albedo: Are you okay?

Ainz: I'm sorry. I shouldn't have acted that way in front of you.

Albedo: Did something go wrong with the spell, my lord?

Howler: Hah...I guess you could say that.

Ainz: The ring was definitely activated correctly. However, the wish was not granted. Only one thing is capable of withstanding a Super-tier magic spell, and I honestly never thought this would could contain such a power.

Albedo: No way...you mean?

Ainz and Howler: A World Level Item.

Howler: Oh lord, how can this stupid pathetic world contain such an item? Are there more? ARGH!

Ainz: Albedo.

Albedo: Lord?

Ainz: The security level of Nazarick needs to be raised to maximum. Also, every guardian needs to return home immediately.

We teleport to the Treasury of Nazarick.

Ainz: Is this your first time in the Treasury?

Albedo: Yes. I couldn't enter without the ring of Ainz Ooal Gown. It is the only key.

Ainz: A security feature.

Howler: It's honestly been a while since I've been here.

Ainz and I step up to the door.

Ainz and Howler: Glory to Ainz Ooal Gown!

Some text appears glowing on the barrier. I zone out for a bit while Ainz-bro talks and the barrier disappears.

Ainz: We're headed to the Mausoleum. It's not far.

Albedo: Mausoleum? I didn't know there was one.

Ainz: Hmm. I guess it has been off-limits.

Howler: There's also my personal collection of items I deem worthy of keeping safe.

Ainz: Are you aware of Pandora's Actor?

Howler: Oh shit. I forgot about him honestly.

Albedo: Of course. I know of his existence, but we've never actually met. Pandora's Actor. His power and intelligence rivals my own. Created by the Masters to be the one true Guardian  of the Treasury.

Albedo: If I'm not mistaken, you designed him yourself, my lord.

Ainz: Yes, that's right.

Albedo: He's also responsible for keeping our finances in check.

Howler: You got it! He's sorta like our personal banker.

Howler: You got it! He's sorta like our personal banker
