Chapter 558 - 544: Miraculous Thievery Skill, the Only True God and the Reality!

Chapter 558: Chapter 544: Miraculous Thievery Skill, the Only True God and the Reality!

[ Meanwhile, on the other side, the Golem flying in the air also noticed the group in the desert, and then plummeted violently from the sky!

Just the purple smoke released from its body easily knocked everyone down, and its mouth continued to unleash beams of astonishing destructive power.

Seeing this, Kazuma hurriedly controlled the Giant Golem to block in front, but suddenly, a mass of strange, unidentified objects appeared in the sky.

Rather than an unidentified object, it looked more like a giant loudspeaker made of several ghosts, and immediately after, a hoarse voice came from within.

"Attention all students, the Supreme One will seal the magical steam released by that fellow. Please, when the steam is sealed..."

"Throw Pantagruel..." But before the sentence was finished, the loudspeaker was destroyed by a beam from the Golem below.

Natsuki Subaru was dumbfounded: "Hey! What are we supposed to do with Pantagruel?!"

"I see." Demiurge instantly understood Ainz’s thoughts.

"Gruel can control the Golem, and the Supreme One will seal that troublesome steam. Kazuma, please delay the Golem’s movements."

"During that time, let us work together to deliver her to that Golem’s left eye." ]

『 Viewers of Countless World 』

"Damn... I thought you just loved to blindly overthink things, but it turns out you actually understand!"

Everyone from other worlds was a bit stunned. It turned out this guy wasn’t always overthinking; he really understood! Just a few sentences, and he instantly guessed the thoughts of Ainz.

The most outrageous part was that he even figured out the method from that half-finished sentence!

.....

?A Certain Magical Index World, Academy City?

"If you ignore Demiurge’s occasional excessive overthinking of Ainz, this guy is seriously smart!"

At this moment, Kamijou Touma, the ’fierce’ man, shrank his neck with a pale face and silently tucked his feet into the quilt.

Ainz’s big loudspeaker was convenient, sure, but it looked a bit creepy. It sounded more like vengeful spirits demanding a life, who wouldn’t be scared!

If possible, could he change to a more civilized way of notification?

?OVERLORD World?

"Demiurge... well done."

Ainz looked at the intelligence officer of the Great Tomb of Nazarick before him and couldn’t help but offer a compliment.

It really wasn’t easy; this time he finally guessed right! He didn’t come up with any messy nonsense.

After all, when it comes to comprehension ability, Ainz sometimes really admires Demiurge’s brain circuits. Just relying on a few casual sentences, he can think of so much.

This ability to overthink was finally put to good use!

Demiurge bowed in salute, the corners of his mouth slowly curling up into a smile:

"Your praise is my glory, Ainz-Sama!"

Excellent, he received Ainz-Sama’s praise; he was one step closer to the ring!

Thinking of this, Demiurge silently reached out and pushed up his glasses, frantically signaling to Ainz... Ainz-Sama, look, doesn’t this gesture of mine look like a ring?

.....

[ Seeing that Demiurge had arranged everyone properly, Ainz, flying in the air, hesitated no longer and prepared to make his move.

"Body of Effulgent Beryl, Greater Hardening, Indomitability, Sensor Boost, Greater Luck, Boost Magic: Source, Widen Magic: Source..."

"That should be about right." After casting several buffs on himself, Ainz finally attacked: "Shark Cyclone—!"

A tornado instantly rose from the ground. The wind wall was like ink-black crystal, and the gale shuttled through it, making a sharp whistling sound, successfully breaking through the Golem’s magical steam.

Seeing this, Kazuma also seized the opportunity, hurriedly manipulating the Golem to firmly restrain it. ]

[ ..... ]

?Type-Moon World, Kaleid liner Prisma Illya Wordline?

Tohsaka Rin was a bit dumbfounded:

"I can understand casting buff magic before a fight, but aren’t there a few too many buffs..."

Known as the Devil Muscle Rin, Tohsaka Rin naturally used magic enhancements often in fights, but she had never seen anyone like Ainz, piling them on as if mana cost nothing!

"So, does he not have any lower-tier magic?"

As the daughter of the prestigious Edelfelt magus family, Luvia was also staring blankly:

"Just from the names of those few buff spells, you can tell the level isn’t low."

Boost Magic: Source? Although she didn’t know the concept, she at least recognized the word ’Source’ (Origin).

"Low-tier magic? Sure!"

Illya lowered her head and thought for a moment, then had a flash of inspiration:

"The Fireball spell used to light alcohol lamps is pretty low-level."

Tohsaka Rin and Luvia were speechless: "..." Illya, saying that, is even more discouraging. You thought for half a day just to come up with that one.

And aside from that, Ainz’s attacks all started at the tenth tier!

?Cautious Hero: The Hero Is Overpowered but Overly Cautious World?

"Does he have a sickness too?!"

Realizing she seemed to have discovered the truth, Ristarte couldn’t help but gasp.

Casting so many layers of buffs before a fight, and starting with tenth-tier magic—without a doubt, this guy is just like Seiya, possessing caution to a perverted level!

"What nonsense are you talking about, you useless goddess!"

Ripples appeared on Seiya’s usually expressionless face:

"This is called normal behavior!"

Being cautious in a fight is never wrong. The only thing he was dissatisfied with was that Ainz actually thought the buffs he cast were enough?

Not enough, far from enough. He should have added every single buff spell he knew! Otherwise, what if something went wrong?

.....

[ Meanwhile, watching all this from within the temple, Tanya knew it was time. She closed her eyes and gathered divine power: "Ah~ Lord... Lord, what you have spoken, what you have spread..."

Although Tanya looked incredibly pious, her eyes revealed a different meaning... You guys are definitely thinking, even though I hate God, I still have to pray to God, right?

Receiving Tanya’s look, Naofumi’s gaze also sharpened... Exactly so.

Then Tanya grabbed Gruel’s hand and began to swing her around.

"Ehh ehh ehh... is it going to be this swinging method?" Gruel, spun dizzy, only managed to say this one sentence before being thrown out by Tanya.

After doing all this, Tanya felt incredibly uncomfortable: "Even if it’s for power, praying to God is simply a humiliation."

Seeing this, Naofumi couldn’t help but sigh: "What a difficult problem." ]

[ ..... ]

?KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World?

"Hey, saying that praying to God is humiliation—as a Water Goddess, I can’t pretend I didn’t hear that!"

Aqua frowned, hands on her hips, looking indignant.

Kazuma spread his hands helplessly:

"There’s no helping it. After all, they are the two who hate gods the most."

Before, they almost fought just hearing the name of a god. Did you expect Tanya to have any good feelings toward a so-called god?

It has to be said that Being X is truly scummy. Making Tanya, who hates gods, pray to a god to gain power—it is indeed a difficult problem.

"But even if you don’t believe, you shouldn’t speak so harshly!"

Aqua puffed up her cheeks in anger. You can choose not to believe, but don’t call it humiliation.

Megumin hit the nail on the head and offered a solution:

"If you have an objection, go tell her yourself..."

"Uh... n-next time."

Remembering Tanya’s somewhat terrifying appearance, Aqua instantly chickened out:

"Forgiving the people’s irreverent behavior is also a goddess’s grace."

.....

[ Just like that, with everyone’s concerted efforts, Gruel was thrown into the Golem’s eye. The next moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth.

"This is... really time to say goodbye." Gruel looked at everyone one last time with reluctance: "But I don’t regret it. Although the time was short, I lived very happily..."

When the light faded, everything returned to calm. The Golem stopped attacking, and Gruel was forever sealed within the eye.

The portal to return to their original worlds opened because of this. Afterward, the Golem completely lost its vitality.

At this moment, which should have been joyful, no trace of a smile could be detected on anyone’s face. In the end, Alec also gave up the chance to return to his original world.

Even though Gruel would never wake up, Gruel gave him salvation. The current him could not abandon Gruel and leave.

Vera also came to terms with it and gave up the plan to return to her original world. She wanted to protect Gruel together with Alec.

Thus, Tanya and the others returned to their original school. Ainz also asked Kazuma a question: "When you came back from that world, you used Steal, right?"

"But it seems to have failed."

"He didn’t fail!" Although Megumin didn’t see it with her own eyes, she was incredibly certain!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Gruel, who had been sealed in the Golem’s eye, appeared in front of Vera: "At the moment the wormhole closed, that person in the green cloak."

"Stole me out from inside..." ]

[ ..... ]

?Projection of All Worlds?

"HOLY CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP—!! Kazuma, you are truly my god!"

"As expected of an existence from that world, Kazuma really did deliver a blessing to a wonderful world!"

Seeing Gruel reappear, the crowd that was originally a bit sad instantly stopped grieving and became excited, a sense of admiration rising for Kazuma!

It has to be said that Kazuma is just too cool. There is no existence more reliable than Kazuma in a desperate situation. This is too reliable, Kazuma-yo!

.....

?Gabriel DropOut World?

Seeing this scene, Gabriel stopped the game in her hands, her face full of emotion:

"As expected of Kazuma. With him around, there basically won’t be any bad-end scenarios!"

Kazuma has maxed out luck, plus that unlucky Aqua wasn’t by his side, so he was able to steal Gruel from the seal.

It could be said that for the always-lucky Kazuma, his greatest misfortune was meeting Aqua!

?Type-Moon World, ██████ Worldline, Chaldea?

Dr. Roman also admired Kazuma quite a bit:

"You can say Kazuma is funny, but you can’t really think he’s weak!"

When it comes to desperate situations, you still have to look to Kazuma. If he wasn’t reliable, it probably really would have ended in tragedy.

Da Vinci slowly shook her head:

"And Kazuma isn’t weak either. He completely crushed Kyouya Mitsurugi when storming the castle..."

A terrible hand of cards played into a winning hand. He looks weak, but he’s really strong when he fights. Kyouya Mitsurugi was taken down by Kazuma twice...

If you only learn about Kazuma from other people’s descriptions, you would think he is trash, scum, a brute... uh, these cannot be denied.

In reality, when you get to know him as a person, you will find that he is actually a kind and ordinary otaku.

?Type-Moon World, Fifth Holy Grail War Worldline?

"Suddenly, I feel like this Steal skill, which is basically only for stealing panties, is unprecedentedly powerful!"

Emiya Shirou was extremely excited.

Illya’s eyes were full of smiles:

"That’s only natural. After all, it’s a skill personally taught by the Goddess of Luck, Eris."

Although everyone calls him Scum-zuma, at critical moments, you can always trust him. A hero who can achieve a happy ending even if he dies in a slag!

"The MVP of the whole match is undoubtedly him."

Cu Chulainn was also full of admiration. To still have such clever moves in that kind of situation—as expected of Kazuma, the one with the most ideas.

Although he looks like a pervert and a lecher, he really has both courage and strategy. Even if his basic stats are poor, he is an existence that can pull off god-like combos!
