Albedo was puzzled.
This is the bottom level of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, located between the thrones on the tenth level, where it is impossible for outsiders to invade.
Therefore, Albedo had only one answer in her mind—
"Could it be that the Supreme Being has returned?!"
Not only her, but Shalltear and Demiurge also had the same idea.
There is no other possibility but the supreme being.
If it were an enemy that had invaded here without being detected, then it could only mean that the Great Tomb's defenses over the years were all fake and ineffective.
But that's impossible!
Therefore, he can only be the supreme being!
The goal is to be supreme!
Albedo thought to herself, watching the blinding light dissipate before her eyes.
The person who finally came into view was—
Humanity?
Albedo was puzzled.
After the light faded from the throne, a human figure appeared.
Before the three guardians could ask any questions, they heard the other party speak.
"I'm back, Guardians."
Humanity seems to be making a declaration as if it were the supreme being.
The three guardians looked at each other in bewilderment.
Are the humans before me truly supreme beings?!
Chapter 244 The Guardians of Nazarick! Embarking on a Path of Fate...?!
Upon seeing the figure that suddenly appeared between the thrones, Albedo, Shalltear, and Demiurge's expressions changed, and they immediately became alert.
If the intruders are enemies, they must be quite powerful to have invaded the bottom of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
Conversely, if the true form of the figure is some supreme being, then all of this makes sense.
However, neither Albedo nor Demiurge, nor even Shalltear, had any memory of the Supreme Being in human form.
To be precise, those humanoid supreme beings mostly have towering figures and special equipment, and are definitely not like the one in front of us...
juvenile?
Or is he a human boy?!
As the chief steward of the guardians, Albedo looked at the person standing on the throne and asked in an uncertain tone.
"Who are you……?"
If she were truly the supreme being, Albedo would immediately apologize for her earlier rudeness.
If an enemy has infiltrated this place through some means, she will also launch an attack directly.
Standing directly in front of the throne, Baili looked down at the three floor guardians below.
Just like I remember.
Albedo appears to be an elegant noblewoman, but her black wings and horns reveal a sinister nature.
Shalltear's true form is quite terrifying, but her current appearance does indeed fit the Gothic Lolita style.
Demiurge, who often plays the role of strategist in the original work, is also the source of Demiurge's influence, always complicating and deepening the protagonist's thoughts.
Faced with Albedo's question, Baili simply sat down on the throne behind him.
He leaned back in his chair, looking at Albedo calmly and seriously.
"It's only been a short time since I left, and you don't even recognize me anymore? It seems the Jade Records didn't educate you well, Albedo."
"You mean... Lord Cuiyulu?"
"And you, Shalltear, while Peroroncino was away, did you properly hone your skills?"
Shalltear was taken aback when she was asked the question.
She never imagined that the young man in front of her was actually some supreme being.
Shalltear, feeling an inexplicable sense of oppression, quickly responded.
"I've been constantly improving my skills! I haven't slacked off at all!"
"Is that so? That's more like it."
After Baili finished speaking, he turned to Demiurge.
“You seem quite calm. I think there was a reason why Ulbert created you in the first place. This calmness is commendable.”
"Knowing the names of so many supreme beings, who exactly are you...?"
"Do you still have doubts now? I thought you wouldn't be so foolish."
Upon hearing Demiurge's response, Baili's gaze held a hint of displeasure and reproach.
Just then, a new figure suddenly appeared in the hall.
It was an insect warrior, 2.5 meters tall, covered in an armor-like outer skin.
His name is Cocytus. He is the strongest of the four NPCs in the Great Tomb of Nazarick who are most skilled in melee combat, and he can use weapons freely with all four arms.
His strongest weapon is the divine weapon, the God-Slaying Blade Emperor, bestowed upon him by the creator, Takemikazuchi. The silver halberd he usually carries is called the Headless Fang.
He spotted the unfamiliar figure on the throne and immediately launched an attack.
"What are you guys doing? Allowing a complete stranger to sit in the supreme position!"
Seeing this, none of the three guardians intervened.
Or rather... deliberately watching Cocytus raise his weapon at Baili.
boom! ! !
As Cocytus, wielding his halberd and severed fangs, charged a hundred miles away, an incomprehensible power erupted from his face.
With a loud bang, Cocytus flew uncontrollably into the distance like a puppet with its strings cut, crashing directly into the wall at the far end of the throne room entrance.
"Well!!!"
The naive insect warrior let out a painful groan, as if he were embedded in the wall.
He twisted his body, pulling himself out of the dented, broken hole, and then fell to the ground.
Cocytus couldn't believe his proud defenses had been rendered useless. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
The impact just now felt like it was aimed at my soul; my consciousness almost snapped out of control!
This power was far too great, exceeding Cocytus's imagination.
In his memory, there was someone who also had an overwhelming advantage over him...
Supreme Being?!
Kocytus remembered very clearly that most of the Supreme Beings he knew were aliens or wore special equipment, and could not possibly look like a human teenager.
"How stupid!"
Demiurge rammed into Cocytus, shouting insults.
Do you really think that the strangers who come to the throne room are enemies?
"As expected, Cocytus is a prime example of a hothead. I think it's better to think things through before launching an attack. At least I wouldn't be foolish enough to directly regard the other party as an enemy."
Even Shalltear joined in criticizing Cocytus.
Cocytes, who was kneeling on one knee, stood up.
Cracks appeared on the outer leather armor of his chest.
Cocytus believed that his defenses would be insufficient if a stranger took him seriously.
Listening to the conversation, Baili sighed softly.
“Your acting is utterly clumsy, Demiurge. After seeing me, you informed Cocytus because you weren’t sure of my identity, which led to his attack, didn’t you? Even if you were defeated, you could have resolved the conflict without changing your stance and treated Cocytus’s actions as a foolish accident.”
“I have no reason to deceive you, but... we haven’t seen the Supreme Being for a long time, so we naturally have to be more cautious when faced with a stranger who suddenly appears.”
"Being cautious is good, but I don't like testing the waters."
"Excuse me, so...may I ask who you are...?"
“I have given up my original title because it makes me an easy target for some troublesome guys.”
This time it was Baili's turn to start the deception.
He doesn't intend to play the role of some supreme being; rather, he wants to become the supreme being himself.
“My name is now Baili, a new Supreme Being. If you have any objections, you may raise them at any time. Those who do not wish to accept my rule are now able to leave the Great Tomb of Nazarick.”
"Such immense power is absolutely supreme; I can understand why you relinquished your past title for some reason, but... esteemed Lord Baili, where exactly did you go during your disappearance?"
Upon seeing Baili easily defeat Cocytus, Albedo, knowing his strength, immediately changed her attitude.
Apart from the Supreme Being, no one can easily suppress the Guardian!
They are confident in their abilities!
Not only that, the other party also teleported directly to the throne room.
It should be noted that this area is protected by a perpetual barrier, making it impossible to teleport freely unless it is some powerful artifact possessed by supreme beings.
“I was seeking new power, and now I have it, so I have chosen to return.”
"New power?"
"The power of destiny, I will bestow this new power upon you. At the same time... I also intend to conduct an interesting test in this world to train the potential individuals I have recruited during this period."
Hyakuri, who has set the Guardians on their destiny's path, also plans to begin the Seventh Commander Plan that she previously mentioned to Rias.
