  1. “—That is fine, Stronoff-dono. I don’t mind taking you two on at once.”
  2. “Please don’t, Sorcerer King-dono. This duel is with me. You two, stay out of it.”
  3. The pinpoints of red light floating in Ainz’s skeletal eye sockets glowed even
  4. brighter.
  5. “…I see. I’ve seen those eyes before. They are the eyes of a man who has embraced his death and advances anyway. Firm, unyielding eyes. I admire them.”
  6. Ainz was speaking like a human being.
  7. “Very well. I accept your proposal. I will duel (PVP) Stronoff-dono.”
  8. [...]
  9. “Stronoff-dono. How much of this sword’s power do you know?”
  10. “I fully understand it. This sword has an unreal sharpness that can cut metal like paper.”
  11. “Incorrect. That is only a fraction of the sword’s power.”
  12. “—What? What do you mean, Sorcerer King-dono?”
  13. “Well, in short, this sword is a weapon that can kill me. Something like that is the absolute minimum condition for a duel. Without a weapon that can harm me, this would be nothing more than an execution.”
  14. “Sorry for comparing you to the rats that entered my fortress.” Ainz muttered as he suddenly produced a shortsword out of thin air.
  15. Without hesitation, he dragged the edge of the gleaming blade across his face in a forceful slice.
  16. However, it did not leave so much as a scratch.
  17. “Weakly enchanted objects like this cannot harm this body of mine.
  18. Incidentally, this shortsword is imbued with about as much data — or rather, as much mana — as that sword you bear, Stronoff-dono. However, your sword can harm me, in clear defiance of what I know to be true. Could I request that sword after I win?”
  19. Gazef smiled thinly.
  20. “Forgive me for refusing, but this sword is a national treasure.”
  21. “Mm. PVP under the pretext of returning dropped items, then? Very well.”
  22. [...]
  23. Climb raised the bell. He could only pray that victory went to Gazef.
  24. And then — louder than expected — the bell rang.
  25. His consciousness focused to the absolute limit, Gazef stepped in with an
  26. unbelievable speed—
  27. Without missing a single moment, Brain and Climb opened their eyes and
  28. watched—
  29.  
  30. —And before any of them, the world went quiet.
  31. “I see… so time-stop countermeasures are important, after all.”
  32. Because Ainz had instantly cast a [Silent Magic – Time Stop], Gazef was
  33. frozen in front of Ainz, his sword raised high.
