  1. “Come to think of it, what were you two doing, Ainz-sama?”
  2. 「说起来,安兹大人你们在做什么呢?」
  3.  
  4. “Hm? Ahhh. I gathered suggestions from people in Nazarick about how to make this country great. Ah, that’s right. You two as well. If you’ve got any good ideas, why not give it a try. I’ll listen to anything, you know?”
  5. 「嗯?啊啊。我聚集了纳萨力克中的人,讨论如何让这个国家变的更好的点子。对了,你们两个也是。如果有什么好主意的话就说说看吧?什么都可以喔?」
  6.  
  7. Aura’s face lit up.
  8. 亚乌菈的脸整个亮了起来。
  9.  
  10. “If you say so, Ainz-sama! I have a great idea!”
  11. 「如果是这样的话,安兹大人!我有个好点子」
  12.  
  13. “Hohoh -- And what would that be, Aura? Come, tell me.”
  14. 「嚯嚯──那是什么啊,亚乌菈。说说看吧」
  15.  
  16. “Yes! I think boys should dress like girls, and girls should dress like boys!”
  17. 「是!我觉得男生该打扮成女生的样子,而女生则应该装扮成男生才对。」
  18.  
  19. ...Bukubukuchagama--!
  20. (……泡泡茶壶──!)
  21.  
  22. Ainz screamed the name of one of his old friends internally.
  23. 安兹在心中大喊着昔日友人的名字。
  24.  
  25. For a moment, Ainz even saw the phantom image of a Pink Slime going “Soh-ry!” in an adorable voice that was completely at odds with its appearance.
  26. 一瞬间安兹甚至看到了粉红色的黏体[史莱姆],在用与外表不相衬的可爱声音、说着「对不起啦」来道歉的错觉。
  27.  
  28. “I see. So that was Bukubukuchagama-sama’s idea. It is certainly an excellent proposal. Moreover, in this country, any decision of the Supreme Beings will surely be the correct one.”
  29. 「原来如此。这是泡泡茶壶大人的主意呢。确实是个不错的提议啊。再者在这个国家实行、过去由无上至尊所决定的事情的话,确实也是个正确的行动呢」
  30.  
  31. Correct? Ainz wanted to make fun of Albedo, but he could not do it.
  32. 这正确吗,虽然安兹很想向雅尔贝德吐嘈但它却办不到。
  33.  
  34. In any case, this idea could not be allowed to happen. However, there was a problem with that.
  35. 总之,这个主意是不能通过的吧。但是却有个问题。
  36.  
  37. The two of them only dressed like that because Bukuchagama designed them that way. If Ainz denied Aura’s idea, he would then have to explain the exact reason why to the others.
  38. 这两人是遵从着泡泡茶壶的设定,才会打扮成那样的。如果安兹想要否定亚乌菈的提议的话,就非得向其它人解释这提议究竟哪里不行。
  39.  
  40. Ainz could not immediately think of such an explanation.
  41. 安兹并没能马上想到该如何解释。
  42.  
  43. “Ainz-sama. Shall we implement Aura’s suggestion immediately?”
  44. 「安兹大人。请问时候应该,立刻实施亚乌菈的提案?」
  45.  
  46. Why are you making the decision so quickly?!
  47. 为什么,要那么快就做出决定啊。
  48.  
  49. He was out of time.
  50. 已经没有时间了。
  51.  
  52. If he agreed to this suggestion, it would be declaring to all parties inside and outside the country that the Sorcerous Kingdom of Nazarick was a nation that valued cross-dressing. That would be incredibly bad. Perhaps only Bukubukuchagama would be interested in that. No, if Bukubukuchagama were in this world, Ainz felt she would definitely not want to make a country like that.
  53. 如果同意了这项提案的话,无论是对内还是对外,都等同于是在宣传,魔导国是一个有着性别倒错装扮兴趣的国家。那样绝对不妙。会感到高兴的就只有泡泡茶壶一个人而已。不,即使泡泡茶壶在这个世界的话,安兹也认为她绝对不会来造访这样的国家。
  54.  
  55. If they knew the NPCs had developed their own egos, some people would be intrigued and want to meet them, while others would want to avoid them. Bukubukuchagama would probably fall into the latter group. Yamaiko and Ankoro Mochimochi would probably want to meet them. Why is it they’re so different despite them all being girls...
  56. (如果知道了NPC们产生了自我意志的话,有些人会想来看看而有些人则会想要避开的吧。泡泡茶壶桑大概是属于后者吧。如果是夜舞子桑或是红豆包麻糬桑的话,感觉就会来的样子。同样都是女性但为什么却会有这么大的不同啊……)
  57.  
  58. As he reminisced about them, Ainz slowly rose and looked out the window. Of course, that action had no special significance. He was simply trying to buy himself time. Once he had a rough idea of what he was going to say, Ainz turned to look at the three of them.
  59. 怀念她们的身影,安兹缓缓地站起身,看向窗户的外面。这个举动并没有什么特别的含义。只是在拖延时间而已。暂且想好了大概的说法后,安兹转过身体,看着那三人。
  60.  
  61. “I cannot possibly allow that idea.”
  62. 「那个提案绝对不行」
  63.  
  64. “Why, why is that?”
  65. 「这、这是为什么呢?」
  66.  
  67. Of course they’d ask that, right? ...I mean, giving single men masks on Christmas would still be a better law than that...
  68. (当然会这么问的吧……比起那种点子,在圣诞节时给没有对象的男性提供面具,都能成为更好的法律啊……)
  69.  
  70. Ainz sighed. Of course, that action had no special significance. He was simply trying to buy himself time.
  71. 安兹叹了口气。当然,这也没有什么特别的用意。同样只是在拖延时间。
  72.  
  73. “There are many complex reasons for that, Albedo. Do you need me to explain each and every one of them?”
  74. 「虽是有几个复数的理由。雅尔贝德,这需要我一一说明吗?」
  75.  
  76. “Y-yes. P-please, if you don’t mind.”
  77. 「是、是的。麻、麻烦您了。」
  78.  
  79. Ainz was planning to say that to Albedo, but Mare had been the one who had intercepted it instead. He’s normally such an honest boy; why’s he being so wicked now, Ainz thought sadly. If it were Albedo, she would have definitely said, “There’s no need for that. Allow me to explain to the two of you on Ainz-sama’s behalf”. But under these circumstances, Ainz had to do it himself.
  80. 安兹原本是打算对雅尔贝德说的,但急着赶来接茬的却是马雷。明明平常是个坦率的好孩子的,为什么会这么坏心眼呢,安兹悲伤地这么想道。如果换做是雅尔贝德的话「没有那个必要。就由我来为他们两位说明就好了」她绝对会这么说的。但在现在这种状况下,也就只能由安兹来进行说明了。
  81.  
  82. “...Is that so. Then, I shall enlighten you. But where shall I start from that would make it easy to understand…?”
  83. 「……这样啊。那么就由我来说明好了。刚开始要从哪里说明会比较好懂呢」
  84.  
  85. Umu, Ainz went as he supported his chin with his hand. Needless to say, that too was to buy himself time. Ainz desperately forced himself to think, so hard that he thought his brain would start sweating, and then an idea struck him.
  86. 嗯,安兹用手抵着下巴。不用多说,这当然也是在拖延时间。像是脑部都要渗出汗水那样,拚命思考的安兹,闪过了一道念头。
  87.  
  88. “--Firstly, ah yes, that should be it. The two of you must feel that because you’re dressed that way, the entire country must dress like you as well, am I right? After all, you must feel that such was Bukubukuchagama-san’s will. However, that would be incorrect. --Yes, the two of you are special.”
  89. 「──首先,也是啊。因为你们两个是那么打扮的,所以觉得这个国家的人也该那么做对吧?因为你们觉得那是泡泡茶壶桑的意志。然而,那是错的。──没错。你们两个是特别的」
  90.  
  91. “We’re special?!”
  92. 「我们是特别的吗!」
  93.  
  94. “Indeed you are. The two of you are special to Bukubukuchagama-san. That is why you have been permitted to dress in that way… so do you intend to let that specialness spread to many people that you do not know?”
  95. 「就是那样。因为你们对泡泡茶壶桑来说是特别的,所以才能被允许如此打扮……你们想让那份『特别』,也发生在其它不相识的多数人身上吗?」
  96.  
  97. “How could we?!”
  98. 「怎么可能!」
  99.  
  100. The person who had retorted so loudly was -- surprisingly enough -- Mare.
  101. 大声地这么说着的人,很让人讶异,竟然是马雷。
  102.  
  103. “Never! I’ll never let anyone but Nee-chan have Bukubukuchagama-sama’s specialness!”
  104. 「绝对不要!泡泡茶壶大人的『特别』,除了我好姐姐之外,绝对不交给任何人!」
  105.  
  106. “That, that’s right. That’s how it is. Do you understand, Aura?”
  107. 「说、说的也是。就是这么回事。明白了吗,亚乌菈?」
  108.  
  109. “Yes! I was so stupid that I didn’t think about how Bukubukuchagama-sama felt!”
  110. 「是的!竟然没有考虑到泡泡茶壶大人的心情,我真是太笨了!」
  111.  
  112. “Also…”
  113. 「还有就是……」
  114.  
  115. Aura and Mare had already accepted that reasoning. It should be fine to slowly exit the topic now. However, there was one more thing that worried Ainz.
  116. 亚乌菈跟马雷已经接受了。就这样暧昧地把这个话题结束掉,应该也没问题的吧。但是安兹还有件担心的事。
  117.  
  118. Ainz muttered something about there being several other reasons, and as he did he peeked at Albedo.
  119. 安兹低语着还有几个理由,一边窥看雅尔贝德的样子。
  120.  
  121. Someone as extraordinary as herself would probably have thought beyond Ainz. Would she find it strange if he terminated the topic now? That was what made Ainz uneasy.
  122. 如果是超凡的她的话,有可能想到了超越安兹想法之上的什么。如果现在就结束的话,雅尔贝德会不会觉得奇怪呢。这便是安兹的不安。
  123.  
  124. As their eyes met, Albedo smiled, and then inclined her neck.
  125. 当他们的视线相会,雅尔贝德露出微笑歪了歪脖子。
  126.  
  127. Not knowing what that response meant, Ainz averted his eyes. And then, there just happened to be an Elder Lich in front of him. Ainz nonchalantly eyed the files he was holding.
  128. 不知道她这举动的意思,安兹别开了视线。而他的视线前方刚好有一只死者大魔法师,安兹自然地看向他手上抱着的数据。
  129.  
  130. “--Ahhh. So you were thinking about that too, Ainz-sama. After all, you were looking at that document the most. It should be all right to tell the two of them as well, right?”
  131. 「──啊啊。果然安兹大人也对这件事也有着什么考量吗。毕竟那份文件您是看的最久的。如果是他们两个的话,我觉得即使告诉他们也无妨吧?」
  132.  
  133. Ainz turned to Albedo again as she suddenly spoke.
  134. 雅尔贝德突然的话语,令安兹再次将视线转向了她。
  135.  
  136. “--Umu. So you thought of it too, Albedo.”
  137. 「──唔嗯。果然雅尔贝德你也想到到了吗」
  138.  
  139. “Yes, I did. I was wondering if you were going to mention that idea as well, Ainz-sama. I believe what you are thinking about is whether or not to explain to the two of them, am I right?”
  140. 「是的。正好我也在想,安兹大人您是不是打算要提这一点了呢。您现在是在顾虑,要不要对他们两个说明对吧?」
  141.  
  142. “As expected of you, Albedo. You know my thoughts without the need for me to speak them.”
  143. 「真不愧是雅尔贝德啊。就算不明说,也能理解我的想法」
  144.  
  145. “You are too kind,”
  146. 「愧不敢当」
  147.  
  148. Albedo smiled and lowered her head. On the other hand, Aura puffed up her cheeks in annoyance.
  149. 与微笑一同雅尔贝德缓缓地低下了头。而另一方面,亚乌菈则是不满的膨起了脸颊。
  150.  
  151. “Still, I cannot believe I did not think of Bukubukuchagama’s will, though it should have been the most important thing to consider. As expected of our creator, our Overlord. I will never be able to equal your wise decisions, made by considering countless points of view.”
  152. 「但是,本该最为被重视的泡泡茶壶大人的想法,我却没有能想到。不愧是我们的造物主,无上至尊。透过诸多视角而下的这个判断,果然是我所远远不及的」
  153.  
  154. “No, don’t say that, Albedo. I’m certain you will display talents that will exceed mine someday.”
  155. 「不,别这么说。雅尔贝德啊。如果是你的话,我想某天必定会展现出超越我的才能吧」
  156.  
  157. The fact was, she had already exceeded him by far. Ainz felt ashamed of himself as he thought about that, but Albedo simply nodded, her face full of conviction.
  158. 其实现在她早已经大幅度的超越自己了。虽然安兹自己也觉得、这是在说什么啊而感到羞耻,但雅尔贝德却是一脸坚决的点了点头。
  159.  
  160. “Yes! I shall!”
  161. 「是的!必定!」
  162.  
  163. “--Then, what other reasons are there?”
  164. 「──那个,其它还有什么理由吗?」
  165.  
  166. “Really now, Aura. Albedo, explain to the two of them. Make it easy enough to understand that even a child could get it. Yes, it must be easy to understand,”
  167. 「就是这么回事,亚乌菈。雅尔贝德,说给他们两个听听吧。是要连孩子都能理解的那种,浅显易懂的说明。没错,要浅显易懂的」
  168.  
  169. After Ainz said this, he fell silent and and then looked out the window once more. However, all the nerves of his body were concentrated on listening, because he did not want to miss a single word Albedo said.
  170. 安兹这么说之后,表现出一副我不会开口喔的态度,再度看向窗外。但是全身的神经却都集中到听觉,为了不听漏雅儿贝德所说的任何一句话。
  171.  
  172. “Indeed. Actually, I wanted to bring this up with Ainz-sama afterwards, but then a small problem cropped up.”
  173. 「没错。其实我本来是想着之后与安兹大人提案的,其实现在发生了一点小问题」
  174.  
  175. “Ehhh? Did someone cause you trouble? Want us to go over there and wipe him out for you?”
  176. 「咦咦?什么的家伙引起了麻烦事吗?要我们去刷刷的把他们杀掉吗?」
  177.  
  178. “No, it’s not like that. The truth is, we’ve discovered that our resource stockpiles might not be sufficient for the future. So if we ordered everyone to change their clothes right now, we would only be able to take troublesome measures like exchanging old clothes and so on.”
  179. 「不,并不是那样事。其实最近我们发现,将来的物资储备可能会有所不足呢。所以如果现在下令全部人的服装都要换过来的话,就只能采取交换旧衣服这种,非常麻烦的手段不可了啊」
  180.  
  181. Eh, really? Of course, Ainz could not say that. All he could do was desperately try to recall the contents of the file he had just seen.
  182. 咦,是这样吗?这种事当然是问不出口的安兹,只能拼命地回想其刚才所看的数据内容。
  183.  
  184. Indeed, it had contained something about resources, but that amount seemed quite adequate. However, if Albedo said so, then it must be true.
  185. 确实,上面是写着关于物资的事情,但那数量似乎还很充足。但既然雅儿贝德都这么说的话,那这就是事实了吧。
  186.  
  187. In other words, this is a pretty bad situation, no? Still, if that’s the case, can’t we just purchase more from the Kingdom or the Empire? A city like this should have enough assets for that, right?
  188. (是说,那不是相当不妙吗。但是,如果是那样的话,从帝国或是王国购入不就好了吗?那种程度的资产,这个城市应该是还有才对吧?)
  189.  
  190. Albedo had an answer to Ainz’s justified doubts:
  191. 而安兹这理所当然的疑问,雅儿贝德也给出了解答。
  192.  
  193. “This city was an excellent storehouse for resources, and it functioned as a trade city. However, since Ainz-sama has taken control, the traders from the other three countries rarely visit this place. Thus, we are in a situation where our remaining resources are ebbing away.”
  194. 「这座都市身为物资聚集场的作用很强,是座商业都市。不过现在,由于被安兹大人所支配了,其它三国的商人几乎不会来造访此处。因此就只会陷入物资渐渐减少的状况吧」
  195.  
  196. “If we don’t have them, then let’s grab them from elsewhere. How about from the Empire or the Kingdom?”
  197. 「没有的话,就从有的地方拿来就好啦。像是从帝国或是王国那里抢来啊?」
  198.  
  199. “Onee-chan, we, we can’t do that. Ah, A-Ainz-sama said we were forbidden to use force on those three countries, right?”
  200. 「姐姐,那、那样是不行啦。啊,呃,那个,安兹大人不是说了,严禁对那三国实行武力」
  201.  
  202. Indeed. Though he did not know about the future, he had placed a blanket ban on the use of military force until he had fully assumed control of this city. Of course, if the other side attacked first, that was a different matter entirely.
  203. 没错。虽然不知未来会如何,但直到将这座都市完全纳入支配之前,严禁使用武力。当然,如果对方先来攻击的话,就另当别论了。
  204.  
  205. “Then, what should we do?”
  206. 「那,要怎么办啊」
  207.  
  208. “Er, erm, we shouldn’t need to worry. A-after all, A-Ainz-sama will settle it.”
  209. 「咦,咦,但,但是应该不用担心吧。那个,呃,安兹大人会解决的」
  210.  
  211. Are you going to dump all this on me now? Ainz wanted to refute Mare with that, but he forced himself not to. After Aura replied to Mare with, “I see!” he could not bring himself to betray the trust those two kids had in him.
  212. 这在种地方丢给我吗,安兹虽然很想对马雷如此吐嘈,但还是硬忍了下来。附和着马雷说着「这样啊!」的亚乌菈,又有谁能去背叛这两个孩子的信赖呢。
  213.  
  214. However, an ordinary employee like Ainz could not possibly think of a proper financial policy. Because of that, Ainz decided to play one of his two trump cards.
  215. 但不过只是个普通职员的安兹,不可能有办法想出正确的经济政策。正因为如此,安兹才使出了两个杀手锏的其中之一。
  216.  
  217. Ainz slowly turned, and confidently said:
  218. 安兹缓缓地转过身,充满自信的说道。
  219.  
  220. “--Albedo. You’re taking care of this, aren’t you?”
  221. 「──雅儿贝德。你已经在办了吧?」
  222.  
  223. In other words, he would dump it all on another talented person (Albedo) and be done with it.
  224. 也就是所,将其抛给优秀的人才[雅儿贝德]就好。
  225.  
  226. “Yes. Recently, the seeds Demiurge has been sowing should be ready to be harvested.”
  227. 「是的。近期内,迪米乌哥斯所撒下的种子便可以收割了吧」
  228.  
  229. “Just so. The two of you have nothing to worry about.”
  230. 「就是这么回事。你们两个什么都不必担心」
  231.  
  232. Their sparkly-eyed looks of respect and adoration made Ainz feel a twinge of guilt. At the same time, the fear of seeing the looks of disappointment in their eyes when they found out all this was fake took root in his heart.
  233. 像是看着很厉害的人那样,闪闪发亮的尊敬眼神让安兹稍微有点罪恶感。而与此同时如果知道这一切都是假装的,那两人所浮现的失望眼神的恐惧感也在安兹的心中扎下了根。
  234.  
  235. Still, that Demiurge. I don’t know what seeds he planted, but he’s really amazing.
  236. (不过,迪米乌哥斯啊。虽然我不知道他撒下了什么种子,但还真是厉害啊)
  237.  
  238. Ainz wanted to ask about the harvest, but he could not.
  239. 虽然安兹也想要问问收割的事,但是他不能问。
  240.  
  241. This was because Ainz Ooal Gown should have been a luminary who knew everything.
  242. 因为安兹.乌尔.恭,应该是知晓一切事情的人才对。
  243.  
  244. I know I should have studied economics, but I could only skim those complicated books… like, they should have made the ones on Keynesian economics and so on easier to understand. Or could it be that I’ve become set in my ways because of my age?
  245. (虽然我知道应该也要研读经济学才对,但是艰深的书也只能草草看过……像是凯恩斯经济学之类的,应该讲的再浅显易懂一点。是不是因为年记的关系让头脑硬化了啊……)
  246.  
  247. Ainz was thoroughly versed in the game mechanics of YGGDRASIL. This was not an idle boast; he had learned over 700 spells and had memorized the details of each one, a feat which had shocked his friends. In addition, those spells he had not learn could still become a weapon to read his opponents’ strengths once he knew of them. This was why Ainz had done his best to memorize all those spells. He was easily among the top five among his guild when it came to magical knowledge.
  248. 安兹对于YGGDRASIL的游戏系统记的很清楚。不是他在自夸,他记得自己所习得的全部超过七百种的魔法,同伴们对此也感到很惊愕。而那些他所没有习得的魔法,只要知晓的话,就能成为解读对手力量的武器。所以安兹才会为了尽量将所有的魔法都记起来而努力。因此关于魔法的知识,他在工会内应该可以排进前五吧。
  249.  
  250. Still, while he could do that, he was completely clueless about academics.
  251. 但虽说能做到这样的事,但安兹对于学术方面的书籍却一窍不通。
  252.  
  253. Eh? Could it be that I can’t remember more things because I don’t have a brain?
  254. (啊勒?莫非是因为我没有脑部,所以无法再记忆更多的事情了?)
  255.  
  256. Ainz knew that he had learned many things since coming to this world, so he also know that was impossible. Still, he trembled a little at that frightening supposition.
  257. 就算安兹知道来到这个世界后他习得了许多的事情,所以不可能会有这种事。但他还是因为这骇人的想象而颤了颤身子。
  258.  
  259. “And then, I have a matter which requires Ainz-sama’s approval…”
  260. 「然后,我有件事想得到安兹大人的许可……」
  261.  
  262. “--What? Did you say approval?”
  263. 「──什么?你说许可?」
  264.  
  265. Ainz did not feel any suggestion Albedo made would require his approval. After all, she was a clever girl, and would surely make choices that were better than his own. However, if that were the case, the organization would not be able to function properly. After all, the people on top had to bear responsibility for their subordinates’ actions. Because of that, it would seem that superiors had to grant seals of approval in this fashion.
  266. 如果是雅儿贝德的提议,安兹不觉得有发出许可的必要。因为聪明的她,会做出比这样的自己更为正确的选择。但是,那样的话组织就无法好好运作了。上位者的作用就是承担起下属的责任。为此果然上位者还是要发出许可这样的令牌才行。
  267.  
  268. “Someone must visit the Royal Capital to stir up those humans. Would you permit your servant to go?”
  269. 「为了让那些人类动起来,得有个人到王都去才行,请问让属下我前去可好?」
  270.  
  271. “What?!”
  272. 「什么!?」
  273.  
  274. Ainz was taken completely by surprise, and exclaimed louder than normal.
  275. 安兹因为太过讶异,发出了比平常更大的声音。
  276.  
  277. Sending Albedo out while Demiurge was not around as well made AInz feel very uneasy. Besides, his control over this city was not perfect.
  278. 在迪米乌哥斯也不在的情况下,还要派遣雅儿贝德出去,这让安兹感到很不安。再说,这个都市的统治也还不算完美。
  279.  
  280. More than anything else, the reason why this was so shocking was because this was the first time Albedo had said something like this.
  281. 而且比起其它的任何原因,这惊讶更多的,是来自于这是雅儿贝德第一次说出种话。
  282.  
  283. “...If I send you out… I would be quite troubled…”
  284. 「……如果要派你出去的话……我会很困扰啊」
  285.  
  286. “My,” Albedo smiled in delight. “It will be fine, Ainz-sama. I shall immediately settle matters and return to your side.”
  287. 「嘛」雅儿贝德很高兴似的露出了笑容「没问题的,安兹大人。我会立刻把事情办完,回到您身边的」
  288.  
  289. “Is that so… well, if it’s just for a while it should be fine. Who will be given control of Nazarick and this city?”
  290. 「这样啊……如果是短时间的话应该没问题吧。你打算把纳萨力克跟这座都市的管理交付给谁?」
  291.  
  292. Aura and Mare looked quite surprised, so it was obviously not them. Not to me, I hope, Ainz hoped.
  293. 亚乌菈跟马雷一脸不可思议的样子,所以很明显不是他们。该不会是要交给我吧,抱持着这种心情安兹忐忑的询问道。
  294.  
  295. “I plan to entrust them to Pandora’s Actor.”
  296. 「我打算交付给潘多拉·亚克特」
  297.  
  298. Aura and Mare said something along the lines of “It’ll be fine if it’s him.”
  299. 从亚乌菈跟马雷那里能听到了「如果是潘多拉·亚克特的话就没问题了呢」这样的声音。
  300.  
  301. “...Him, you say.”
  302. 「……那家伙吗」
  303.  
  304. “He is an excellent individual created by yourself, Ainz-sama. As they say, like father, like son -- ah, I apologize. To think we who were merely created would dare claim to be the children of the Supreme Beings. I pray you will forgive my rudeness.”
  305. 「他是由安兹大人所创造的非常优秀的人才。正所谓孩子像父母──真是失礼了。只是被创造出来的我们,竟敢自称为是诸位无上至尊的孩子。还请您原谅,我的失礼」
  306.  
  307. Albedo’s sudden apology stunned Ainz -- even the red points of light in his eyes faded.
  308. 雅儿贝德突然的道歉让安兹楞了一下──眼眶里的红色光芒也暗淡了下去。
  309.  
  310. “There’s no need to apologize. That is, well, my child… sorry. I do not dislike him, that, hm. foolish child… no, that’s not his fault either… Well, how shall I put it. He’s like a child. Umu.”
  311. 「你不必道歉。那个是,嘛,我的孩子……抱歉。我并不是讨厌,那样,愚笨的孩子……不,那也不算是他的错……嘛,怎么说。就像是孩子那样的啊,唔嗯」
  312.  
  313. Before he knew it, everyone had gone quiet. Ainz knew that the conversation would dry up if this went on, so he steeled himself and asked:
  314. 不知不觉彼此都静默了。因为这样下去会话题停滞不前,所以安兹只好硬着头皮问道。
  315.  
  316. “If we let Pandora’s Actor manage this, what about Momon, who he is portraying? Should I do it?”
  317. 「如果要让潘多拉·亚克特管理的话,他所扮演的飞飞要怎么办?由我来做吗?」
  318.  
  319. “No, how could we allow you to do that sort of thing, Ainz-sama? I was planning to have Momon accept a request and be sent abroad for reconnaissance.”
  320. 「不,怎么能让安兹大人做那种事呢。我打算让飞飞接受委托,出发到外围去进行巡视」
  321.  
  322. Mm, Ainz nodded. Although he had thought about relaxing by taking the guise of Momon, things were now vastly different from when he was playing the role of an adventurer.
  323. 嗯,安兹点头。虽想久违地变成飞飞好好放松一下,但仔细想想,跟轻松地扮演冒险者那时相比,状况已经大幅地改变了。
  324.  
  325. There would be many troublesome things, or things which had to be carefully handled. That being the case, sending Momon out on a scouting mission might be the best choice.
  326. 会有很多麻烦事,或是非得小心不可才行的事情吧。如果是这样,让飞飞出发去巡视或许是最好的选择也不一定。
  327.  
  328. “Ah, a-abou that… if you send Mo-Momon-sama out, will the people in this city be all right?”
  329. 「那、那个、那个啊,把飞,飞飞大人派到外面去的话,这个城市的人们没问题吗?」
  330.  
  331. “There will be no problems. This single move by Ainz-sama has had telling consequences. Because we have not acted in ways which trivialized humans -- although there was hardly any intention to do so -- Momon too has benefited from this and is deeply trusted. Thus, all we need to do is have Momon tell the local leaders to obey us before he leaves and all should be fine. Still, come to think of it, they have no idea that they are puppets dancing on strings and ruled by Ainz-sama… as I thought, only he could have anticipated this turn of events right after being transported here and made the appropriate preparations.”
  332. 「没有问题。安兹大人的这一步可是有着致命的效果呢。因为我们没有做出过轻视人类的行为──虽然本来就丝毫没有那种打算──所以飞飞也托此福,而被深深地信任着。所以只要在飞飞外出前,让他对城里的权势者们叮嘱要服从我们的话就没问题。不过话说回来,他们完全就没有意识到自己被傀儡操纵,所支配着……在转移之后就能预料到这一步并先行准备,真的只能说不愧是安兹大人了」
  333.  
  334. “Mm -- it’s kind of strange, how they trust Momon-sama and not Ainz-sama.”
  335. 「嗯──他们相信飞飞大人的话,却不相信安兹大人的,有种很复杂的感觉呢」
  336.  
  337. “Indeed. Still, this is an important part in completely controlling this city in the name of peace. All we need to do is gradually remove Momon and instil loyalty to Ainz-sama in its place. This might take several years, but it can’t be helped.”
  338. 「是呢。但是,为了和平并完全地支配这座都市,这页是必不可少的一手棋啊。只要缓缓地除去飞飞,并对他们植入对于安兹大人的忠诚心就行了。虽然这可能要花上数年,但这也是没办法呢」
  339.  
  340. “Good. Then, Albedo, hand it to Pandora’s Actor. After you have prepared yourself and handed over your tasks, go and reap the harvest. Is there anything else you need?”
  341. 「好。那么雅儿贝德,就交给潘多拉·亚克特,在你做好准备跟其它事项的交接后,再去进行收割吧。还有什么想要的东西吗?」
  342.  
  343. “Understood. Then, I plan to conduct some negotiations when I go to see the human kind. Could you spare some of your valuable time to go over a draft with me?”
  344. 「遵命。那么,关于去王都跟人类的王见面这事,我有些交涉想要进行。我有拟定草案请问能花费您一些宝贵的时间吗?」
  345.  
  346. “Umu. Bring it to me later.”
  347. 「哼嗯。那之后再拿过来吧」
  348.  
  349. Besides, all he would be doing was something simple like putting his seal on Albedo’s draft.
  350. 反正只是在雅儿贝德的草案上,盖章印章那样简单的工作。
  351.  
  352. “In addition, though it shames me to ask, I would be delighted if you could give me several sets of clothing. I was simply thinking that it would be necessary to change clothes there.”
  353. 「还有,说来惭愧,如果您能给我几套衣服那就再好不过了。因为我想,在那边是必须替换衣服的」
  354.  
  355. “Is that so. Then I shall give you several sets of my clothes. Come look for me later. Speaking of which, Demiurge -- no, there’s no need. It’s fine. Then, let’s continue… hm, since you’ve come all the way here, I’d like to hear from the two of you as well.”
  356. 「这样啊。那就给你几件我的衣服吧。之后再来找我。话说回来,迪米乌哥斯──不,不用了。没什么事。那么,我们就继续吧……既然都来了,那么也让我听听你们两位的意见吧」
