overlord holy black dragon king

Ainz also received the news that the rescue supplies destined for the Holy Kingdom had been robbed immediately after being reported by Albedo.

His first reaction was: wonder.

Because this was originally a "part" of the plan discussed by Albedo and Demiurge.

The information network that has been spread out has already gathered towards the Sorcerous Kingdom, and it has been developing for almost two months, so that the Sorcerous Kingdom has already begun to take shape as a big country.

The next plan is to annex the Kingdom and Empire and make it a vassal state.

And the first thing to consider is the kingdom.

Geographically, the kingdom is bordered by the Slane Theocracy, the Council and the Holy Kingdom at the same time, which has very important strategic significance.

Therefore, the plan discussed by the two wise men was to use Lana to incite the nobles of the kingdom to give the Sorcerous Kingdom an excuse to blackmail or go to war.

Just like the information Ainz heard now.

But this is the plan after two or three months!
The Sorcerous Kingdom still needs to develop!
Unexpectedly early?This made Ainz very depressed.

He asked Albedo beside him:
"Could this be the means of the enemy?"

There are many people who do not wish to see the Sorcerous Kingdom develop.

The Empire is the strongest. They wish the Sorcerer King would die on the spot, as well as the guardian of mankind, the Slan Theocracy.

And the behind-the-scenes man composed of the real dragon king.

The greater the power of development, the harder it is to eradicate, which they do not want to see.

Thinking about it differently, Ainz didn't even want to give the enemy two months.

Albedo did not answer directly.

"Master Ainz, according to the information given by Lana, it is the kingdom's underground organization "Eight Fingers" who stole the supplies. It is unclear who did it and what purpose it is."

"Lana speculates that perhaps because Demiurge's plan is going on, the kingdom's food supply has been reduced, and food prices have risen rapidly, so that the rats in the stinky gutters can see the benefits."

This was also part of Demiurge's plan.

Let the kingdom have problems first, let the nobles and the royal family become "villains", and then let the Sorcerous Kingdom be the "hero to save the world", which will benefit the future rule.

Unexpectedly, this underground organization was the first to be unable to resist the temptation.

It was a reasonable inference, but that wasn't what Ainz wanted to hear.

"Then what are your thoughts, Albedo."

"The subordinates believe that the most basic vigilance should not be let go. If the enemy did it, then the purpose of this move may be to lure us out."

Draw out?
Feifei, played by Pandora's Actor, was in the Sorcerer's Country. Occasionally, Ainz would appear with Feifei when it was safe.

Knowing this alone was enough for the true dragon kings to gather and invade the Sorcerous Kingdom.

Using the magic that changed the territory last time, another siege would kill Feifei and Ainz completely, wouldn't it?

However, no one stepped into the trap that Ainz prepared after a month or two.

The past two months have been so peaceful.

Perhaps because of the heavy losses, it will take some time to recover.

In the last battle, the loss of an undead dragon and armored warrior, plus the seriously injured dragon in Shalltear's report, was indeed not small.

This reason seems reasonable.

However, the current Ainz didn't dare to be certain about any kind of conjecture, it's better to leave room for everything.

The "trap" that wants to lure them out, whether it is a trap or not, they cannot step on it.

But
The affairs of the kingdom can't be left alone, the majesty of the Sorcerous Kingdom must be maintained.

"Then what do you think should be done, Albedo?"

"Lord Ainz, although the plan has been advanced, it cannot be ruled out that it was done by someone behind the scenes, but the majesty of the Sorcerous Kingdom cannot be violated. This incident must be severely punished."

"To be on the safe side, we can negotiate on our behalf through letters, or let the other party's royal family come to the Sorcerous Kingdom to make amends in person."

"If you want to decide to invade, just send out an army composed of monsters and undead."

Ainz nodded.

The kingdom has not found any powerful existence so far, at most it is at the level of the kingdom's warrior chief Gazef.

The remaining two adamantine-rank adventurer teams "Vermilion Dewdrop" and "Blue Rose" need to pay attention.

"This time the plan is advanced, and the other plan may also need to be adjusted."

"Yes, Ainz-sama, it might as well... do the two things at the same time, so as to minimize our suspicion."

"Um"

After pondering for a while, Ainz agreed with Albedo's idea.

"Alright, but has that organization already taken control?"

"They have no right to resist."

"If it fails."

"Please rest assured, Ainz-sama, even if they fail, the enemy will not be able to read any information about Nazarick from their minds."

It doesn't matter if the mission fails, the confidentiality of the intelligence is the most important thing.

What's more, that organization was originally used as a pawn, as long as it can bring value, it doesn't matter if the whole army is wiped out.

"Then do it according to your idea. Besides, is there any news about Melo?"

"There is no Ainz-sama yet. Are you really planning to invite him to join the Sorcerous Kingdom? This subordinate believes that even if he is cleared of suspicion, he should at least check his memory."

"I understand your concerns, Albedo. Well, if the other party shows up, you can capture him in the name of Ainz-Wur-Gon, and after confirming that his memory is fine, make him the captain of the Sorcerous Kingdom's guard."

Ainz thought about it, it's better to be more cautious.

It's not that he doesn't trust Melo, but that he hopes to obtain some information that he doesn't know from the memory of the other party.

As for the compensation afterwards, Ainz would consider taking out some precious props and satisfying some demands of the other party to appease his anger.

That kind of arrogant and greedy guy, as long as he sincerely apologizes, there is no hatred that cannot be resolved.

"Let Shalltear be on standby at all times. If Melo is found, let her go out with the monsters to capture her while ensuring her life is safe."

Shalltear also carries world-class props, and is also the strongest among the guardians in terms of overall strength, and also has a record of repelling enemies.

If there is anyone who is most suitable for dispatching, apart from Lubedo, Shalltear is the most suitable.

"I see, Ainz-sama."
