*Third POV
As he walked over, Y/N stretched out her hand grasping his.
A light flushed look appeared on his face as he was being touched by his Mistress.
Feeling his pulse, Y/N thoughts gathered.
He has a pulse!
That means...all of this is real!
The game...this can't possibly be like one of those anime or manga right?!
Let me try one last thing to confirm!
You moved your body closer to Arthur as he blushed to be able to smell the most calming and pleasant scent coming from you.
You lay your delicate head on his chest, right above his heart. You were able to hear the strong beats as they sped up a bit.
Alive...
Distracted by your thoughts you wrapped your arms around his torso as he held you gently being mindful of your two pairs of wings.
You released a sigh after collecting your thoughts. It then occurred to you that there's a possibility that Momonga is also here as you are in the tomb of Nazarick. The chance might be small but knowing how dedicated he was to the game, he would have stayed until the end.
In that case, he might be here!
Pulling away excitedly at that thought, you realized that not only were you holding Arthur around the waist, he also held you in his embrace.
Your face flushed red in realization as your heart rate sped up a bit.
"S-Sorry Arthur!" You fully pulled away, a bit embarrassed that you didn't realize the position you were both in.
"No need to apologize My Lady" he smiled looking at you with tender brown eyes.
"Let's go find Momonga!" You quickly said after composing yourself.
And so you left your room with Arthur escorting you. At the end of the hallway, you noticed the winged form of the flugul guarding the entrance of the floor.
Noticing your presence, the flugul flapped the wings attached to her lower back, appearing before slightly bowing as she greeted happily.
"Mistress"
"Jibril, how are you?" You greeted with a smile, accepting the fact that the NPC's are now living beings.
"Very happy to see My Mistress is well" Ever polite like the rest of the NPC's Jibril responded, eyes flashing in delight.
As Y/N conversed a little with her NPC's she observe the differences between the game and this new life. For example, they can converse and follow orders not specified. And they can display emotions.
Soon enough the trio was interrupted as Albedo made her way to the floor. Upon arriving in front of the three, she bowed and greeted.
"Greetings Lady Y/N"
A little surprised to see the floor guardian you stared.
"Greetings, Arthur... Jibril" she continued.
Then she relayed Momonga's orders.
" Lady Y/N, Lord Momonga asked for all the floor guardians to meet at the amphitheater in an hour"
It seems that Momonga also made it over
It seems that Momonga-San also made it over.
Did anyone else make it as well? Hmm?
"Where is Momonga Now Albedo?" You ask the succubus as you decide to leave all your questions to Momonga.
***
*Throne Room*
As Momonga rose from the throne, the large double doors of the throne room were pushed open.
In walked a goddess.
An embodiment of beauty clad in white robes with golden trims.
Someone very familiar to Momonga, but someone he hadn't seen in a long time.
Momonga stared in disbelief.
"Momonga-San" She called as she closed the doors, walking towards Momonga.
"Y/N?"
She smiled a close-eyed smile.
"Hai"
"It's really you?"
"Yup," she said clasping her hands behind her back, mindful of her wings.
"Who else could it be Momonga-San?"
Looking at the tall undead skeleton of a man in front of you, you couldn't help but feel a little relieved. After all, you are not alone anymore.
"How?" He asked.
"How I'm here in Nazarick or how we're here, where ever here is?"
"Uh? Both?" He sighed, sitting on his throne.
"Well, I logged in at the last few minutes. But then I realize that I wasn't forcefully ejected by the game and well the alive-in-game thing is also new hehe" you quickly explained laughing awkwardly at the end.
***
You and Momonga continued to converse about the current happenings as you both shared your findings.
As you spoke, Momonga felt happy knowing that he was not here alone. One of his beloved Conrad is here with him and one he didn't think he would see again.
He felt that with you here, he could face whatever challenges that may turn up.
"Oh right, I asked the guardians to meet...in an hour," Momonga said holding out his bone hand to you.
You took his hand and in a flash, you both appeared at a corridor with steel bars closing the entrance to the amphitheater.
"It looks like the rings teleportation function has no problems." He commented.
"Hmm" you agreed.
That means we should be able to use items and artifacts with no problem.
How about magic?
*6th floor- the amphitheater *
As you and Momonga enter through the gate, a dark elf flipped into the air and landed on the floor.
"Victory!" She shouted smiling largely as she held up two peace signs.
"Aura," Momonga said as she rushed to appear in front of both of you.
"Welcome, Lord Momonga! Lady Y/N!" She greeted cheerfully holding her arm across her chest.
"Welcome to the floor we guard!"
"We will intrude for a short while"
"What are you saying?! You are the Lord and Lady of the Great Tomb of Nazarick!"
"There is no one that would ever consider you as intruding!"
"Hmm, by the way...." Momonga trailed looking around for something...someone.
Realizing what was wrong, Aura turned around and called "Mare!"
"You're being rude to Lord Momonga and Lady Y/N! Come down now!"
"I c-can't sis!" Mare responded.
"Mare!"
"W-wakatta!" He stuttered and proceeded to jump down, landing on shaky feet.
***
After allowing the dark elves to battle the fire elemental, Momonga was satisfied to see that magic was working fine in this new world.
Trying out the skill 'message' he was able to contact Sebas.
"Come to the amphitheater on the sixth floor immediately and report what you saw."
"Understood," Sebas responded.
Realizing what was going on, you couldn't help but laugh out loud. The light hearty chuckle attracted his attention and Momonga looked at you in wonder.
"You're taking this bullshitting thing to the max Momonga-San" you pointed out.
Spotting the embarrassment on his skull face you couldn't help but laugh again.
Ignoring you he paid attention to the elves approaching after defeating the fire elemental.
"You both did well" he praised.
Summoning a table filled with confectionery and tea, you seated yourself as you watch as Momonga interacted with the elves.
Sipping a cup of tea, while occasionally eating a biscuit you relaxed as you awaited the arrival of the floor guardians.
Gotta love having taste buds
"My, am I the first?" A [Gate] opened and out walked a goth Loli vampire.

"Now everyone. To our supreme leader and Lady, the ritual of fidelity." Albedo spoke as the ritual commenced.
"The guardian of the first, second and third floor, Shalltear Bloodfallen. I bow before the supreme ones."
"The guardian of the fifth floor, Cocytus. I bow before the supreme ones."
"The guardian of the sixth floor, Aura Bella Fiora."
"A-also guardian of the sixth floor, Mare Bello Fiore"
"We bow before the supreme ones"
"The guardian of the seventh floor, Demiurge. I bow before the supreme ones."
"The guardian of the ninth floor, Arthur D. Angel"
"Also the guardian of the ninth floor, Jibril"
"We bow before the supreme ones."
"The leader of the guardians, Albedo. I bow before the supreme ones.
Other than the guardian of the fourth floor, Gargantua, and the guardian of the eighth floor, Victim, all of the guardians have gathered to bow before you. Please bestow your orders upon us, Supreme Ones.
We offer our complete loyalty to you!"
