Chapter 2: The Dice Has Been Cast, part three (92)

  …

  Just as Tanya and her father were about to go on their little outing together, just father and daughter, Fifth heard a knock on the door. This caught her attention, and she turned to the door. She looked through the peep hole and saw the two dark elf twins, Aura and Mare, at the door.

  Not letting her surprise show on her face at all, she turned her gaze and partial attention to her lord, Lord Ainz Ooal Gown. She then spoke up, signaling the people who wished to enter the room.

  “Lord Ainz, Lady Aura and Lord Mare are here and wish to meet with you,” she said

  “Of course, Fifth, let them in,” her lord ordered and shed let them.

  A split second after she let them in, Aura rushed into the room and stood by her lord, peering at Tanya. Mare was a lot more nervous, after a couple of seconds of him walking over to his other side to look at the little princess.

  She huffed in slight annoyance and gnced at the two of them. While she liked the twin floor guardians, as unlike Wictoria or her mother or any of the maids, these two liked that she didn’t dress up as a girl. The little girl herself looked much older than she actually was. As she aged much more quickly than a human.

  At least, she would age like that until all of her racial levels had maxed out. though, she didn’t know that. Only really Aeskell, Ainz, and Albedo knew of the girls’ ageing method. Aeskell knew because of her racial abilities, and she had told the other two parents.

  The three daughters of Ainz Ooal Gown aged along with the passive EXP gain of their racial levels. Racial levels were gained as people aged or acted. That was why demi-humans were so strong. They were simply a higher level than humans by the age of adulthood.

  After all, stats were gained with levels, if you had high stats, that meant you had a lot of levels, or the levels you had were good. Of course, one could gain stats if one exercised. However, that only worked so far.

  That’s enough for now though, let’s get back to the story at hand.

  “Hello Lady Tanya, hello Lord Ainz,” Aura greeted Tanya and Ainz.

  “Hello Lord Ainz, Lady Tanya,” Mare greeted the two of them as well.

  Ainz chuckled out loud at their introductions. The two twins had taken a liking to the three daughters of his. He was fine with that, of course. The two floor guardians needed friends as well as his own kids. Yet something was always off about their interactions.

  Ainz couldn’t help but feel as though the two floor guardians thought of his own kids as members of the guild itself, of the guild Ainz Ooal Gown, not daughters of himself.

  “Lady Tanya, what are you going to do today?” asked Mare, and Tanya looked at him with a slightly confident smile on her face.

  “Father has agreed to teach me magic when I turn five, along with my sisters,” Tanya said with confidence.

  The two dark elves looked at the little girl with sparkles in their eyes. They were rather amazed by this information. Even though the confidence that Tanya had put on a smile of satirical confidence, after all she suspected that Ainz would want her to actually learn the magic of this world.

  Tanya didn’t know how to feel about the reactions. On one hand, they seemed amazed by the most basic of information from her. On the other hand, she was rather happy that they seemed enamored with her, for better or for worse.

  Ainz, her father, seemed to notice this and smiled in his heart. She truly was his daughter. After all, she had the same problem he had.

  “We are also going to go on a father daughter walk, so if you two want to know anything or have any questions to ask, simply do so,” Ainz interjected.

  The undead king had just finished work after all, and he wanted to know the two elves’ opinions of the country he was running.

  Aura and Mare looked at each other, then to Ainz and spoke in unison.

  “I think boys should dress like girls, and girls should dress like boys,” they both said, and Ainz cursed Bukubukuchagama in his inhuman and metaphysical heart.

  Somewhere on a desoted earth, an idol sneezed.

  …

  The, “Gate,” spell was a wonderful thing. As one would guess, it could be used to open a gate anywhere they had been before. At least, if there wasn’t another spell blocking it. Tanya very much wanted to learn the spell. Yet, she was too young it seemed.

  She was rather happy. She had gotten her father to promise to teach her magic. The magic of this world, as she had noticed, was awfully simir to the magic system of DnD 3.5th edition.

  In actuality, it was basically an expanded and homebrewed version of the magic and leveling system DnD. However, the author isn’t going to tell her that. So, shush.

  Ainz and Tanya walked through the portal that was the gate spell, and ended up right in front of the old mayor’s manor of the city of E-Rantel. The city itself had seen better days, at least from what Tanya remembered.

  From where she was on her father’s shoulders, she could spot and see a lot of the high-css portion of the city. At least, that was what it used to be. Now it was empty. The people that would have walked around, mostly the servants, were gone.

  Of course there was still people, simply so little compared to what it once was… Well, it was rather pitiful. The people that spotted her father and herself cowered and slumped into themselves, as if he would kill them for the sake of killing.

  “We will go and see your brother, but first I wish to see the adventures’ guild,” her father said, and she nodded her from where she sat.

  “Of course, my lord,” said fifth as she followed behind the two of them.

  “Actually, we might need guards father,” Tanya said as the thought popped into her head.

  Ainz nodded his head in slight remembrance. The thought had occurred to him, yet he had simply forgotten about it when he was thinking about what to do when he got to the adventures’ guild.

  Of course, this was his day and outing alone with his daughter first and foremost. So he would ask her where she wished to go for most of the day.

  “Alright Tanya, what summons do you think I should use for this day? After all, we wish to enjoy this day and I wish you to choose,” he spoke to her in a rather happy tone of voice, as if expecting her to choose something that she would like.

  Tanya hummed. She couldn’t really think of anything right away. After all, most of the summons that her father had and could use were undead. The people were afraid of the undead. They would be afraid of her by extension.

  If she wanted to actually make sure that the people liked her family, and by extension herself and sisters, after all she didn’t want them to fail, she would have to choose something that the people weren’t afraid of. Though, that was easier said than done.

  “How about angels?” she asked, “I don’t like them as they use holy magic, but the people like them and they won’t be afraid of us and our family,” Tanya expined her reasoning and Ainz nodded his head in approval; he had thought of the same.

  …

  Ainz, Tanya, and fifth moved down the street as they surveyed and looked across the city. Ainz himself was looking at the people, while Tanya was looking at the men that patrolled the streets.

  In all honesty, they weren’t all that impressive. Sure, they had been trained in swordsmanship for their sabers, and crossbowman-ship for their… Well… Crossbows. Yet they weren’t nearly as strong as they could be.

  They had simply been trained with the aid of items that boosted EXP gain. Good items of course, but the little girl saw how they walked, saw how they talked. They weren’t as good as they could be.

  If one were to give them an average level, it would be 12. Not as strong as the legionnaires of the empire, but stronger than the men of the kingdom. She was somewhat disappointed in their training methods of them.

  That might change in the future. Well, it most definitely would change, in the next for years, if not months, at least. She changed her gaze to where her father was going when she felt him move.

  She looked in the direction of where he was heading. A giant hamster was sleeping in a horse stables. The giant Hungarian hamster had her tail wrapped around an old looking death knight, who seemed to actually like the presence of the hamster.

  It was Hamsuke, Aeskell’s hamster NPC that she had before she joined the guild. Though, Tanya didn’t actually know that yet. Her gaze seemed to trigger more fight or flight instincts, as she bolted awake.

  Tanya and Ainz looked at the rge rodent with unamused smiles on their faces. Tanya was slightly peeved that it was her gaze that awoke the hamster as her father was much more dangerous than her, and Ainz was peeved because Hamsuke was getting zy.

  “Ah! My lord and Lady! May I ask what you need of me?” she asked with a rge number of nerves, after all she was first and foremost loyal to Aeskell.

  “We are simply looking for Pandora’s Actor as he is pying Momon right now. May I ask where he is?” Ainz asked; he had pnned to visit the adventurers’ guild first, yet he had spotted Hamsuke here so he thought that he might as well see his boy.

  “Why, he is in the building that he pretends to sleep in, my Lord and Lady,” Hamsuke spoke in a slightly trembling voice.

  The others nodded their heads and thanked Hamsuke. They then made their way to the inn that Momon the raven bck hero lived in, and where Pandora’s Acter was now. The rest of the day went on fine. Though, Ainz did get rather inspired and promised something that he might have to try and expin to his wives. Something about incorporating the adventurers’ guild into the nation itself?

  I don’t know, and neither does the author really, after all, he just blurts out these words. They don’t really mean anything when Ainz does it, or does it?
