NOVEL SIMPLE “Carne part 3”
-------------------------------
Londes Di Gelanpo pov:
Londes Di Gelanpo was a faithful man, in the past he had mocked those who did not believe in the gods but right now he was doubting there existence as well. What could shatter the faith of a devoted follower of the gods one may ask. The answer stood only a few meters away. It was a creature that should not be allowed to exist in this world, a blasphemous undead, a Vampire.
It let out a hoarse scream vanished and appeared again behind a knight. One hit with its claw was enough to pierce the armor of the knight. Another one tried to use the opportunity to strike but was killed in a similar way. Moral fell, this creature was strong that was sure, but Londes tried to keep his calm, he knew he was in a bad spot but freaking out was not helping either, his thoughts were interrupted by a scream.
"You there, keep that thing away from me, you are here to cover for me after all."
"Commander Belius", muttered Londes and his eyes narrowed.
No one in their troop liked him after all. He had tried to rape a village girl and had to seek help after her farther had interfered with his lewd desires. His general incompetence made him unfit to be a commander. The only reason he had joined was because his Family earned quite the riches back in their country.
"I am not someone who should die here, quick, help me."
But his please were useless. No one of the knights would throw their life away for someone like him. His screams also seemed to have attracted the interest of the vampire, it vanished again and reappeared behind Belius and instantly it buried its fangs in his neck. Longes used the opportunity to pierce the exposed back and the already half dead Belius in the process. But the creature didn't even stagger and continued until it seemed to have sucked the knight commander try.
Only then did it turn around and Londes felt the fear he had buried deep inside him rise again. He wanted to shout orders, tell his men to call for reinforcement, to regroup and fall back but he could not speak. His words did not leave his mouth because the creature was crushing his throat. The next thing he knew was that he felt pain in his stomach and that he was dropped, the screams from his men slowly faded and the world became dark. The last thing he heard was a soft but commanding voice...

Oriana pov:
We had left the girls where we found them. Momonga had not just healed them. He also gave them two Horns of the Goblin General, an item which could summon a small troop of goblins.
"Why did you change your name to Ainz Oowl Gown our guild name?", I asked him.
"I wanted to use the name to give our guild mates a signal if they ever arrived here, but I understand if you think of this as inappropriate.", he answered and sounded concerned.
"It's really not a big deal, you are the guild Master after all, if someone has the right to take on that name, it's you." I smiled this seemed to have calmed him down.
"We should hurry now, hopefully there are still some villagers alive. We need more Information."
"Yes, that's right, I am sorry I killed that knight from just now, but I was so angry. Come on Let's fly the rest of the way."
I extracted the wings from my back and stretched them as far as I could. It felt good. They had a wingspan of over one meter, maybe that was the reason it felt so good to just let loose for once. Ainz cast a flying spell and we flew up into the sky. From up there we could see the village much better, it was not difficult to miss even from far away because giant smoke pillars ascending from the middle.
I could also instantly see the 5 remain knights they were standing around the vampire servant who had caused quite a ruckus. The fact that such a low-level monster was still alive meant that there were no special individuals among the knights.
"That's enough Servant." I raised my voice.
The Vampire stopped and we landed beside him.
"Greetings, gentlemen. My name is Ainz Ooal Gown and the woman beside me is my friend Oriana." Ainz seized the Word.
fortunately, We had remembered to hide our faces. For this reason, Ainz skeleton face was hidden behind the mask of envy, a mask that could only be be obtained by if you were online on December 24th. It was a way for the Devs to say, "You are online on Christmas, do you got no no firends and a life."
"Shitty Devs."
He also had closed his robe and wore Iron gloves to hide his bony fingers and ribcage. I for myself hid my face under a dark veil that could not be seen trough.
"Thanks for magic items I guess."
"If you throw down your weapons, I will guarantee your life of course if you want to fight..."
Every knight dropped the weapons they were holding.
"Oh my, my little Monster seemed to have traumatized them very bad." I thought and felt the desire to giggle.
Ainz walked in front of them and they instantly felt to their knees: "I will let you go... but in exchange I want you to tell your master that this place is my territory and I, Ainz Oow Gown, will slaughter every one of you and after that I will go after your country if I ever see you again... and now GO and make sure to relay my message."
The knights scattered and ran like there life depended on it.
"Well, it did."
"Ah this act is tiring." I could hear Ainz muttering.
"You are safe now. Be at ease.", said Ainz but the villagers seemed as tense as before.
I shook my head, that didn't help. They were completely nervous and I didn't really know how to act. Luckily I had Ainz, I didn't know why but he was good with people. I gave him a silent signal and moved away a little.
[Message]
"Albedo can you hear me?" I asked via message.
"Yes, my Lady what seems to be the problem?"
"I want you to let 90% of the troops deployed withdraw, let only these specialized in stealth stay. The enemies were so weak the rest is not needed."
"At once My Lady.", replied Albedo.
"Haaaaaaaaa", I sighed.
"Being a supreme being was stressful."
I should speak personally to our reinforcements and check if these knights had support. And with this thought I flew in the direction where I could sense our troops
