In his crib which was made of wooden floor and top, it was being held by a child that was none other than Ainz. Or so what his nickname here in this world was given by his mom.
Helpless as it seems, he started to play with words with his mouth for better pronunciation. Getting a round trip from left to right and right to left in his crib.'The wheels of the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round, the wheels of the bus go round and round, all through the town...' Singing in his mind while circling the crib. He was from earth in the past and was reincarnated so he knew some songs from his motherland.He can walk just fine without worries but it was all boring in that place for some time.Having memorized the nooks and crannies in the room with walls made of wood. Some wooden chairs in the front of the crib and a horn of a reindeer were placed on the wall.Seems like a normal room with a wooden table, placed with a lamp on top of it and it was lit to give radiance to the room. Webs on the edge of the ceiling seemed to laugh in his face. Adding up to Ainz's annoyance as he can't reach it and clean it himself.Just as Ainz was starting to get bored, he called forth the system to talk to.'System!? Are you there?'Just as he called it, it appeared with a notification. Sounding in a female voice.[Just to make the user not bored, I will give a task for the user to play][Goal: Turn around twenty times][Reward: +5% movement speed][The goal was nerfed to suit the user's capacity]'Wohoho! This sure will be easy!'He turned around three times and he can't help but feel dizzy currently. Making him laugh solitarily. His father saw him turn around inside his crib and then laughed very loud after he fell on its floor."Haha, he sure knows how to make himself happy." His father said to himself and then left their home.Ainz was getting dizzy with more effort. Just turning around some more made him roll to the crib in great discomfort.'Damn, this System is very hard on me. Even with my baby self can't find it easy to overcome this.'Soon after, he stands up again as his dizziness faded. He forced himself to push the floor and leaned his arms to the top of the crib. Turning around again and fell his butt. Standing up and turning again until he succeeded.'Yey! Success!'[Reward for completion: +5% movement speed]Upon seeing and hearing the System's notification, he felt a chill run down his spine. A chill of excitement and realizing how engaging it was to experience it in real-time. His reader instincts were leaping with joy right after he heard it.Without wasting time, he soon tried the skill. He gathered mana and conjured the sword. Appearing like it was a cloud of dust that formed into a sword. Brimming with a cold aura that was seeping out of the sword but it was warm to the touch. Seen as smoke-like that was rising into the air. As soon as he made the sword, the system congratulated him.[Another goal of the day][Goal: Swing the sword 100 times][Reward: +5% attack speed]Just looking at it, Ainz stared at it like it was unbelievable. His mind was slow to process the info in his face. Being in a trance as he stared at it So much reward just from a swing of a sword. But soon after, his happiness turned to a lifeless stare and narrowed eyes after seeing the System's notification.'But still, this is child labor! Imagining a two-year-old child swinging a sword in his crib? My parents will leap in great distress as they saw their child having a sword. I should be playing with toys right now.'[You need to be exercising as soon as possible. Your sword is now weightless so just swing it for swing's sake. Or I will give you a negative status for a day?]'Oh geez, sorry. I will start now. No need to struggle with your message," Ainz asked. Starting to swing the sword.Just swinging for some time, Ainz felt that his arms and shoulders were now weary. Thinking of a plan to rest first for some time.Just for a while, he rested on his bed and wiped his face full of sweat with his blanket. Sitting on his bed and then put his hands on his waist. Looking tired as he gasped air for a minute.'I will surely make it to one hundred with this. But still, I am not sure what will happen to my future. Well, let's finish this as soon as possible.'Ainz gets up and stands again. He swings his sword some more until it reached one hundred. Making his heart pump as he gets nearer and nearer to the completion of the goal.[Reward for completion: +5% attack speed]Ainz then almost leaped with his weary feet and legs. Seeing his mother arrive, he extinguished his sword which popped like a bubble into thin air."Hello, Ainz! Time to drink your milk!" she said then gave him a cup of milk. Still warm as he touched the cup made of clay. Sipping slowly as he filled his tummy which was hungry and his throat thirsty.Ainz's mother was washing his clothes and putting him in the crib. Giving him toys to play with, in the meantime. Kissing him on the cheeks then leaving the room. Carrying his unwashed clothes with her.Living idly with his crib and the same table for him to eat. A nice life of being a helpless baby. Just enjoy the perks of being in a form of an infant. Just as life was easy, Ainz was in his crib again for some time now. Playing in his crib with wooden toys that were carved to be a human that has a shield and sword. Making it clash with the other toy that was an enemy – a wooden carved dragon. Making the dragonfly and diving into a human. 'Clash! The human died at its fangs and the dragon ate him. The end!' Ainz said in his mind. Thinking of all his time, he can't help but think that time was so slow. He threw his toys at the walls of his crib and then pouted.'Hey System! Can you give me something to do? Something good?'[Are you sure? I don't see a problem why not][Goal: Sit and
It was night time and he was fed by his mother with milk in a cup of clay. He was on her lap and was sipping the content of it. Just in his view, he can see his mother's breast. Not that he wanted to drink there instead, but it was famished with milk there. The memories of the past was pitifully sucking it but it was all dried up. Dry as a desert without anything on it. Just pure nothing.So he was resting assured when the milk came, the milk of the animal called a cow. Agriculturally termed as cattle. A large ruminant that eats grass and the grass was converted to milk. So he was like sipping from said animal indirectly. Making him imagine that he was sucking it instead. It was not satisfying in any sense but it was his food for now. Making him want to puke but he was hungry. He didn't even have a choice but to drink it. He would rather suck the said animal than his mother's famished breast. He soon was being tapped in his lap and was being sung by the song of his mother. It was c
Just as Ainz slept, he felt that his feet were wet. Making him have wet underwear. Not wet dreams of course. But of course something similar coming from the same source–Ainz.Maybe he peed himself in the midnight. Just as he was about to wake up, he smelled something concentrated odour coming from his own thing. Don't mention it, it was censored here. Just as he woke up, he removed his underpants and threw them outside his crib. Still, his blanket and cushion were wet. Making him throw it all outside.'Being a baby sure has disadvantages. I didn't even felt like peeing last night and here I am wet of it. Maybe I will not make so many actions in the morning so I will not wet myself at night.'Just as he woke up, the System made a notification bell.[Reward for completion: +1 to all stats][Current stats: 3 Strength, 3 Dexterity, 3 Vitality, 3 Focus]'Yey! System, you are the best! I am very well pleased with your rewards!'[My pleasure]Just as Ainz was about to ask for the daily goal,
In the night, where the lamp was being laid by the table, brightly lit his room. From being steady to flickering, all were in random succession. Time seemed to pass by, not that he can stop it in the first place. So, he lets it pass. Not that he can touch it or hold it any longer. All were taken for granted but it was nothing that he can do about it.His mother and father fed him and put him in his crib. Hastily running towards their room while giggling and tickling each other.'Gosh, they seemed to be excited to do it. I am still not sleepy and has to digest my food. Mashed potatoes are only seasoned with salt. That is! Nothing more! System! Do you have something in your thoughts? I want something to do before I sleep,'[You want to backflip hundred times as a warm-up?]'I guess so? Is there an even harder task compared to that? Gosh, I can't even exert that much! I am a baby remember? Do you have plans for me to be a clown?'[Do not worry, I am not that stupid. How about something b
Ainz woke up, eyes opened wide then squinted it some more to remove the unclean thing in it. But as he removed it, it has a sandy texture. Something he didn't want to taste but for sure, it will be salty. Moving on with his life, he felt that his tummy aches a bit. Minding that that kind of impulse was normal when you wanted to pee.Yes, he needs to pee or his urinal gland will blow. Not that it can but sometimes he thought that it will blow spectacularly. Once he opened his underpants, he let it all out outside the crib. Sprinkling like a hose tightened on the lid to fire it all out in greater heights and length.As he can see, the liquid was yellow. Not something a good view to watch. Still, he felt satisfied with his deeds. He was proud that at last, he can do this much and not pee on his bedsheet. Just as he went all out with his pain-relieving endeavours, he saw that it was becoming a puddle. What a sight to see with his naked eyes. Ripples were seen and it became a miniature oce
Ainz was having fun inside his crib. Toys of different variants were placed together with him. A horse with a Knight on top perching the said wooden saddle. Of course, the horse too was made of wood and so was the Knight. As we speak, he made it clash with the wooden dragon. 'Kill the dragon, roar!' Ainz spouted droplets. Making the two toys clash with each other. Another wooden toy was the dog. Making them kiss with the horse with a Knight on its top.'You may kiss the bride. Muah muah,' Ainz said as he lets them kiss. If Ainz will think of it, it could be a thing that will make the horse and the dog become traumatized to his wedding play. They will outright decline his offer of being the actors of the said play. Still, Ainz let them play a bit. Another toy was a carriage that the dog will have to pull. To his surprise, the dog was as big as the carriage. And so, he let it become the one to pull the said carriage. Making it do the work instead of the horse and Knight. The said play
Being carried in his mother's arms, he felt comfortable as what he was in. He was hugging his mother's chest and he was watching his father behind. Walking as he was carrying the empty basket of food. Ainz hasn't eaten anything as he was too tired for such a task given by the system. He wanted to blame the system as much as he wanted to strangle it to death. He was left hungry all the way home. Seeing a cow besides the road, being locked inside the ranch, he can't help but drool over it. Making a squishy-squishy hand gesture as he leaned over in the direction of the said animal. As he went mumbling gibberish words while doing so, his mother can't help but laugh at him."You want to drink milk? We will buy you soon," his mother said to him then cuddled him.'Such irresponsible parents! They have to bring milk when they went picnic!'Ainz narrowed his eyes and pouted. He was not in the mood to smile while his mother cuddled him. His father was making a peekaboo on him but he was snub
Night came and crickets bathed the surroundings with their songs. Ainz was sleeping soundly as the time that night seemed not to be minded. All were asleep and that was including his parents.The owls soon hooted and then flew as they saw entities marching inside the forest. The troublesome thing was that some creatures were running and crumpling the leaves on the forest floor. Shrieks from small creatures soon rang in Ainz's ears and it was loud enough to wake him up. He was startled in his wake and then stood up in a jolt. His saliva was still drooling from his mouth as he squinted his eyes. He soon wiped his mouth with the back of his hands. He soon saw from the window, the creatures small and green. Primarily goblins!'They were already near the house!' Ainz sputtered inside his mind.He immediately climbed down his crib and then went tip-toeing towards his parents. Entering their room, he grabbed the candle and then saw his sleeping parents. He woke them up but it was to no a
The morning was breezy and the cold winds assaulted the village. Battering against the roofs and windows of the houses as the villagers huddled inside. The citizens shivers as fall was coming. Making them prepare for winter for now.Others have prepared already and stocked dry woods and food. Others were warmed inside their houses and were settled while sipping soup.Ainz was not excempted from the cold winds but the training must proceed no matter what. For Ainz, time was gold. It would be a waste if he would just huddle inside his cozy room for now. Also, he was in dire straights if he would just waste time. Minding that enemies would attack anytime soon. And so, he thought that he needed to get stronger as soon as possible. Learning all he needed to know in primordial techniques that he needed to know. As far as his progress was, he was still halfway there. More techniques await!Ainz was in the training field as well as Marvin. He was tasked to train Ainz this time. With the ot
Ainz's training in Voyaging was indeed a fruitful one. The Primordials were already excited for their turn. Well, their turn would come sooner than later. It would be set in fate, time is only the one to pass.It was afternoon and the sun was about to set. The training ground was a mess with all those duels with Ragnar. Learning basic combat from him was just easy. As Ainz was already a martial arts grandmaster. He was able to defeat Ragnar several times already using the Voyaging skills and fighting style. As for Ainz, his fighting style was honed throughout the years. And it was mixing up now. A bit of a bad habit that Ainz has gained. He was confused as to what he would use. The fencing style was new for him and he still has to learn such style. It was more of a deflect and thrust style. A bit different from a swordsman's way of fighting. Nevertheless, it was still a good style. Ainz rested for a while but the time was of the essence. He immediately told Ragnar to continue their
Ragnar was on his high horse to teach his Lord. Making him try his best to impart his knowledge and skills. In the training field, Ainz was first taught the skill types and then their use. He was first briefed about his training this week and it would take time to learn them all.In the past when he was still young, even before the primordial wars where Gods, Demons, and, Humans were still battling, he has not trained in the arts of Primordial techniques. Making him a newbie to all of it.They were very secretive and he can only train in martial arts for the war and did not have skills. Reaching the blurred realm of martial arts made him kill several Gods and Demons. That was the trump card of humanity as well as the Primordial technique. Making the humans weak but having the greatest potential. Given the time to grow, they could move mountains. Though the end of the war was a stalemate. After all, the parties suffered great casualties, but they all stopped the war. The Demon gods s
Ainz was in his war room and he was surrounded by the 8 primordials. They looked menacing, all confident, and eager to teach. Apt to do and able to. They all were ready and Ainz was concerned and they were overzealous to teach him. Eyes were sparkling with a burning passion. He was like a cornered rat from a cat. Being taught by them was what was his dream. Now the problem was if they would overdo it. He would be having trouble catching up.He needed to be prepared. Especially his mind and heart. It would soon start and he would be training in their arts. All would be in the right place and at the right time. He would be having a rigorous week ahead. His rest would be short-lived and his peaceful days would have to end shortly. They were ready to let the class begin. As far as Ainz was concerned, they would teach him their techniques and it would be tasking on their part."We will teach you the basics. The Primordial technique was divided into 8 groups of clans that merged. Having
"What? Longevity? How?" They all chorused."I will teach you how first," Ainz winked his left eye. "Follow me then," he said.They all followed him and they went inside his room. "Find a comfortable spot to sit and then we will start," Ainz commanded them.They heeded his advice and then sat on the floor. Others were on his bed. "Okay, then we will start," Ainz then started his instructions, "First was to sense the specks of mana in the body. Next was to absorb it towards your mana core. Slowly, you will absorb the mana in the air. After that, you will expel impurities from your body with every rank up. Easy right?" They soon look at each other and then start to get it. They soon started to cultivate and then they all were fast in their progress. Having years of battle experience made them fast to adapt. Although they were a little late compared to those of the outside world. They soon made a breakthrough and they sweated impurities. Making them reach Earth realm stage 2."Continu
Ainz went outside the Lord's Hall and walked towards the three areas where the edges of the village were. He watched and observed while picturing out the imaginary pillars that he would construct.As for the pillars, they were the Demon-killing arrays or the Murim, Elemental, and Integrator arrays. The next ones were the Demon-stopping barriers or the Demon weakening barrier, Monster repelling barrier, and Shield barrier. "This is a good place to put them," he made a square out of his fingers while watching its hole as he looked from afar. He needed to put a contingency plan when it comes to protecting the village. He doesn't know how strong the enemies were. As for these barriers and arrays, it could only protect them from Legend rank enemies and below. As for mythical to god-rank demons, it would not be as much effective. They needed to at least on themselves or from the Gods that ascended. Well, they were all his past comrades and maybe could help in direst times. As for his prow
Ainz together with his men escorted the visitors toward their village. These men felt domineering and would be seen as strong ones even just at a glance. His men were always looking at them for a moment and couldn't help but be amazed at their looks.The tribes sure have their battle attire and make them look different from each other. As they marched towards the roads, the tribes were having a chit-chat with each other along the road."Eon, can we trust these people?" Leon asked."Maybe, they are the only humans we could ask for help," he replied then coughed."Can we liberate them?" Pain asked, Eon jolted and then replied, "Of course not! Have you seen their patrol groups? They are already that strong!" he then lowered his voice."We should think of them as allies that could fight the common enemy," Eon then patted their backs.They soon arrived at the village and saw a concealing barrier erected. Ainz then opened it and they entered. They were shocked that they already have advance
Ainz tested the 700 new villagers and they all were assigned to their martial paths and became cultivators. He was in his new Lord's Hall and was in his room. He was sipping coffee that they freshly brewed and was watching the new census of the village population. Frederick entered giving him freshly baked bread. He has a younger look and his wrinkles have disappeared. Ainz thought that it was due to his cultivation that his impurities have washed out from his body. "Sir, your bread," he closed the door and then paved towards Ainz. He had assumed the position of doing the task of being Ainz's butler. "Thanks, Frederick. How's the realm?" Ainz asked."The scouts reported that there was a disturbance in the forest. Seems trouble was approaching," he was looking at Ainz with a more serious look. "I see, let us investigate more," Ainz felt curious and so, he investigated himself. Together with the scouts, they traveled in the forest and scouted while encompassing the realm. The forest
The scouts saw the upcoming army and the villagers saw them up in the hills. The wind was whooshing as they saw them. Having the weather in a chilly and shady atmosphere. The flags fluttered as the demons carried them. Making them seen as having protruding poles in their vast formations. The drums beat again as they started to march. Other demons were in the skies and they flocked toward them. The General was on the skies, armored with golden full-plated armor. Watching the vast village that he could liberate. He was thinking of making them punished for their insolence and they should not return to them as slaves once more. Their deaths would pay the price of angering them. "Kill them!" the general shouted.They soon attacked from the air and the land. Both forces were in a thousand. Thinking of their numbers, it would be a tough fight. Ainz then saw them and the cultivators were only numbered 300 plus. It would be a total disadvantage if they would only rely on their numbers.But
