Overlord: Ancient One

Chapter 33: Dragon Avatar



Arthur was on the 11th floor of the Great Tomb of Nazarick—checking the reward he obtained after the 'Raid' in Asgard. 

After finishing that, he summoned the system interface, Unlike his other Avatar, this time the species for his next avatar solely consists of the undead with a high negative karma value. 

The list includes Skeleton, Ghost, Zombie, Ghoul, Dullahan, Vampire, Night Walker, Phantom, Undead Dragon etc.

"So, Friday, Which race should I choose from?" Arthur asked Friday.

[Well Sir, I think you should choose either Vampire or Undead Dragon. And if I were to give a direct answer then it would be Undead Dragon.]

"I was hoping you would tell vampires to choose as my next Avatar, anyway why do you think Undead Dragon is a better choice." Arthur asked Friday.

[For personal power vampires are indeed a better choice than Undead Dragon from a gamer's point of view. But considering the future I think it's better to choose Undead Dragon as it can easily be integrated with the necromancer job class through which you can make a personal army for yourself.]

[But the decision is entirely up to you to select, Sir. You can either create a powerful Avatar that is stronger than the Doppelganger form or you can create an Avatar that increases your overall power.] Friday said while Arthur was silent. 

What Friday said indeed makes sense as so after thinking for a while Arthur chose to go with her idea. 

"I hope I don't regret this decision." Arthur murmured but was loud enough for Friday to hear, who is laterally living inside his consciousness. 

[Sir, have you ever regretted the path that I chose for you.] Friday asked with her systematic voice, who seems to be pissed at Arthur's comment. 

"Of course not, how can I regret the choice you made? What I said was just a figure of speech." Arthur quickly said as he doesn't want to start another fight with Friday. 

After selecting Undead Dragon, Arthur begins to customize the whole character to his liking. 

After finishing the customisation, what was in front of Arthur looked like a skeleton dragon with a ghostly purple flame coming out of its hollow eyes and mouth.

The dragon's whole body is covered with spikey scales, which looks like a bad omen for any living beings.

After finishing the last bit of details, Arthur selected the {Confirm} button.

[Side Story]

"Hey, Ancient-san, What are you doing?" Momonga asked Arthur while he was on the 8th floor of the Nazarick. 

"Well, I am making a Co-Guardian for the 8th floor as you know this floor's supervisor is Victim and he can be only used as a sacrifice to give bluffs to all the area guardians around here, So I thought why not make an NPC with high attack power," Arthur said.

Seeing that the Data Crystals were burned like fuel to make NPC looked more realistic—Momonga asked.

"Isn't the 8th floor strong already, You laterally sacrifice three World Class Items on this floor and even add a lot of traps to make sure no one escapes from this floor," Momonga said Arthur can understand why he is talking like that. But he can't tell Momonga about the future.

"Yes, I do understand your concern Momonga but after our raid in Asgard, I thought it better to increase our defence as from that one raid we made the enemy out of all Asgard." 

"So, Is it male or female?" Momonga asked.

"Of course, it's a female, And I am going to call her Rory Mercury. Her name is cool right and I'm going to make her look like a 13-year-old young girl, just like Shalltear." Arthur said.

Hearing Arthur, Momonga was silent for a moment after he left a sigh and said.

"Now I understand why Yamaiko and others call you Ancient Perv. So what is her build Ancient-san." 

"Well, She is a reaper with a high physical attack and her race is called {Blood Demon}. So anyway that is what it is and if you are interested we can make the flavour text together, So are you interested." But Arthur request was denied by Momonga.

"No Ancient-san, I promise to go with Bukubukuchagama-san today, So I can't help you." Arthur nodded after hearing this.

"Is that so, then it can be helped, So anyway when are you going to propose to her." Momonga blushed after hearing this. 

"It's not like that, Ancient-san. We are just friends." 

"For now, And I heard from Peroronchino that you even got to go on a date with her IRL." Momonga was flustered after hearing this.

"Or are you saying you are a dense person who can't even understand her to-go signal."

"No," Momonga said quietly.

"Then man up and propose to her—Valentine's Day is near so it's a good time to take the initiative and ask her out." 

"I will think about it, Ancient-san. Now excuse me, I'll be going." Saying so Momonga vanished from his spot.

[FIRST PERSON POV]

After Momonga left Friday asked.

[Sir, I don't understand why go on such a length to pair both of them.] I chuckled at what Friday said.

Yes, It is true that my hand did play some role in bringing both of them together. Even if I am a hypocrite I still consider them as my true friend.

"It's called empathy, Friday. They both have feelings for each other but the virtual world has restrictions, So I just removed it by some 'coincidence' and let them both meet at IRL." 

[I think it's useless to waste your time on such a hypocritical reason, Sir.]

"And who said a hypocrite can't have empathy? But anyway let's forget about it and complete the NPC." I said both Friday and I continued with our work.
