Gazef was stunned for a second, then smiled and said:

"My life belongs to His Majesty. As long as he is willing, there is nothing wrong with dying."

"Go to hell and die, you are so stupid and loyal!" Bing Chen roared.

"Maybe, but I really made a mistake. I didn't expect you to be so smart." Gazef didn't care about this and just laughed it off.

"You!... Wu~wu~"

Before Bing Chen could say anything, a bone hand stretched out again.

Ainz was not a fool. From the topics Bingchen and Gazef talked about, Ainz could hardly guess the inside story.

However, the water was too deep, and the cautious Ainz did not want to get involved.

"Sorry Gazef, most of the knights who attacked this village have been killed, so they should be unable to cause trouble for the time being. Do you need to continue to explain?"

Ainz suddenly interrupted, and Gazef, who had been fighting among nobles for many years, instantly understood Ainz's thoughts.

Therefore, I had no choice but to give up continuing the dialogue with Bingchen and finish settling the border issue before thinking about anything else.

"...the loss of life...was it His Excellency Gong who took action to punish him?"

When Ainz heard Gazef's address, he realized that the way of address in this world was Western rather than Japanese.

That is to say, the order is first name + last name, not last name + first name.

The mystery of the strange expression on the village leader's face when he was asked to call him Ainz was finally solved.

If you ask someone to call you by your name when you are not familiar with each other, you will indeed get that kind of expression.

Ainz realized his mistake, but he still covered it up with the shamelessness of a social person:

"You may be right to say that, or you may be wrong."

As if he was keenly aware of the implications of his words, Gazef glanced at Bing Chen, and then moved his eyes to look at the death knight.

Probably because he smelled the blood on his body.

"I have two things to ask you... Who is that?"

"He is a servant I created...well...a monster I conquered."

Ainz remembered that considering the combat power of this world, calling him a servant would be too flamboyant, and he immediately changed his words.

The result was not bad. Gazef let out an admiration after hearing this, and carefully looked at Ainz from head to toe with sharp eyes.

"So...where is this mask?"

It's easy to make up this reason.

"I wear it for some reason as a magic caster."

Gazef hesitated and said, "Can I take it down?"

Ainz instantly refused:

"With all due respect, if we win, that guy..."

Ainz pointed at the death knight. "If we lose control, we'll be in trouble."

The village chief, who knew the strength of the Death Knight, was still staying at the village chief's house, and the villagers who could hear the voices had expressions of surprise.

Perhaps feeling the intense change in the village chief's expression and the atmosphere at the scene, Gazef nodded heavily:

"I see, then it's better not to take it down."

"Thank you for your understanding."

"Well, before that, although it's hard to say anything, this village has just been invaded by the knights of the empire. If you enter with weapons..."

"It may remind the villagers of terrible memories again. So can you please put the weapons in the corner of the square to reassure the villagers?"

"Well... Your Majesty Gong is absolutely right. However, this sword is a weapon given by the king and cannot be removed without the king's order."

Suddenly, the village chief said, "Lord Ainz, it doesn't matter to us."

"Really? Mr. Village Chief..."

"Woo~woo~" (Let me speak, let me speak)

Ainz's bones covered his hands even tighter:

"I'm sorry...please forgive me for my unreasonable request, Your Majesty the Warrior Commander."

Gazef glanced at Bing Chen regretfully and said:

"Your Excellency Gong's idea is very correct. If this sword is not a weapon given by the king himself, I will be happy to put it down."

"Then can you sit down and let me hear the details? If you don't care, it's getting late. I want to rest in this village for one night..."

"I got it. Then let's go to my house together─"

Just as the village chief was mid-answering, a cavalryman hurried into the square.

From the way he was panting, I felt that he had something important to report.

The cavalry shouted the emergency: "Soldier Captain! Several figures appeared around. They are gradually approaching the village!"

At this moment, Bing Chen finally broke free from the stunned Ainz's bone hand:

“That’s what I want to say!!!”
