A/n: In order for me to add some people, I'm adding a floor to Nazarick, hope you don't mind. Also, I only learned today of how tall Artorias is, so you are going to be as tall as him for future purposes.


Yn's POV


I watched Albedo closely, making sure that I wasn't just imagining it as she asked the same question as before

"I am sorry my lord, but I do not know what system you are referring to. Please forgive me on my lack of knowledge. I am not worthy to stand beside you for not being able to give you the answer that you desire" She bowed, but I was thinking that she was being a bit over dramatic

I couldn't use any of the settings, nothing was working!

I couldn't contact anyone, and this definitely didn't seem like some sort of update or hallucination.

I summoned my sword and observed it closely. It was the same as it had been since I made it, and it appeared just like it always did. I even gave it one swing, letting the torrent of magic power flow along the blade before striking at the air, making it send a thin but powerful slash of energy travel down the throne room

All of the NPC's watched, few with amazement, and the others with curiosity.

I sighed and let the sword disappear into thin air. I at least know that some of my skills still work, which is a relief. This meant that there weren't any bugs in the system, seeing how the most common one was the glitching of mid to high-level skills

I looked towards the NPC's in the room, perhaps I should try talking with them again?

"Sebas...." I called out, and The Butler of Steel himself raised his head to meet my gaze, his expression unchanging and strong

"How may I be of assistance, My Lord?"

"I'd like to know the status of the area outside of the Tomb Of Nazarick, is possible that it has changed recently?" I asked. If something like this has happened, where I can suddenly speak to NPC's easily, than I'm sure other things have also changed

I needed more information, the more, the better. knowledge is power, that's something that Momonga had told me once, and he was definitely right

"I am unsure of your request, My Lord. I believe that it is the same as it has always been." He bowed again. I feel like he's showing me too much respect here "But if you feel that something is wrong, I can check myself"

However, it seems that all of this is real?

If that is the case, then I can't show any weakness, I can't make a bad impression. Come on, be confident!

I propped up my arm on the armrest, placing my chin into the palm of my hand, letting my head rest like that as I felt pressure on my elbow which was keeping my arm up from that position. I narrowed my eyes at him and spoke

"Why do you think I asked such a question, Sebas?"

He could only close his eyes as he bowed once more "I am sorry, My Lord. I will see to it personally"

"Do so with haste. As for the Pleiades, stand guard on the tenth floor, if anyone tries anything, annihilate them without hesitation, understood?"

I watched as they too, bowed towards me, and the eldest sister, Yuri Alpha, spoke for them all

"Understood, My Lord" Without another word, all of the battle maids left the Throne room

"Do you have any orders for me, Lord Yn?" Albedo asked, making my eyes shoot towards her
