Overlord X Male reader

She Lied

Ainz: indeed.

He waved his to indicate that she carry on, and even then the small act made him feel rudely arrogant

Something he only thought, whilst the maids by Hamsuke's words...enjoy it when their masters dominate them, what did they mean by this

As much as it disturbed him he still felt the need to act and dress the part, using his old life he acquitted to being the boss of a company

When he thought about it in that way, Ainz felt that what he had done was what the Sorcerer King should have done, as he learned from spying on the ruler of Empire, where Jircniv Rune Farlord El-Nix presented himself in such a manner

Still, Suzuki Satoru had been a working man, and he felt a little uneasy about not thanking his subjects for their work

Ainz: ...then, you should go have a good rest yourself.

Fourth: ah! please allow your servant to offer her deepest thanks for your generosity, Lord Ainz.

The maid bowed deeply as she expressed her gratitude

Fourth: however, it is thanks to this item that you so graciously lent me that your servant could stay by your side to attend you without having to rest, Lord Ainz.

Your gonna regret giving them that ring Satoru

Your voice played in his mind, although he was very pleased by their dedication there was no need for them to go that far as to watch him all night

Ainz: 'at least they should cancel the night shift...the part where they watch me sleep, right?'

As maids, it was only natural for them to faithfully serve their master with their hearts and souls

He recalls those words spoken by Evelyn when training the new maid Nayeli

Ainz: 'faithfully serve their master, huh...what would you say if I wanted to live as an equal to you?'

It has been many months since you two found yourselves in the New World, and Ainz was now confident that all of Nazarick's denizens were absolutely loyal to their lieges

So long as you kept the order and he did not do anything which would disappoint them, there was no chance of their betrayal...ignoring outside interference

Perhaps one day he could change the relationship between them, and put himself on equal footing with the NPCs, if that had happened...

Ainz: 'indeed, just like during the guild days...I wonder if (Y/n) would like to go back to that sort of life again...he's busy having fun as a dragon God, so he probably won't...'

That thought in mind, Ainz simply understood that eventually this would be the endpoint of this reverence and to go against that would cascade to a point where they no longer viewed him as an equal

As the children of his friends, it was his responsibility as their master to continue in that capacity

Fourth excused herself, and left the room

In that moment, Ainz sprang into action he replaced the book under the pillow with another book that had a very complex title, then the book he was reading last night went into the pocket dimension that is his inventory

He sighed a breath of relief, he did not want to read those difficult books which made his head hurt all night rather he wanted to read some popular books instead, but in eyes of the NPCs reading such books would damage Ainz's dignity as a ruler...he thought, but his own paranoia was greater than the Emperor's
