Overlord chapter 42 v1

Overlord 42

Elites, Assemble!

01
Sebas: To think these members of Nazarick would be gathered here...

Sebas: I must offer my sincerest thanks to Ainz-sama.

Demi: Hmph

02
Demi: I trust you have no objections to the fact that Ainz-sama has granted me full authority over this matter, Sebas?
Sebas: Certainly not.

Demi: In that case, I hope that you will not misunderstand all this.

Demi: While it is true that Ainz-sama intends to rescue that particular human...

Demi: These members are also assembled here to execute Eight Fingers, those who have dared spit upon the dignity of the Supreme One. You do know that, right?
Sebas: I certainly do. Aiding Tsuare is only a secondary objective.
Demi: But of course.

03
Demi: Since we are unsure if Tsuare can endure resurrection magic,

Demi: I have decided to comply with your wishes and rescue her alive.
Demi: ...That said, I have also considered the possibility of her death.

Demi: Were I the opposition here, I would toss the head of the hostage at anyone foolish enough to actually come out and rescue her.
Sebas: But surely if it were you, Demiurge, you would torment the hostage in front of them, would you not?
Demi: ...I cannot find any fault with your words.
Shalltear: ...Are the two of them having a friendly chat or something?

Sebas: In that case, I trust that you already have information on Eight Fingers then, do you, Demiurge?
Demi: Ah, that is not a problem, Sebas. We will be attacking all their locations afterwards.

Demi: Of course...

04
Demi: We will also need to capture multiple personnel from each location to extract information from them.
Demi: In addition, the members of Eight Fingers-

Demi: -Must be appropriately punished for daring to soil the glorious name of the Supreme One through the mud by challenging his promise of protection.
Demi: For that, we will have them tell us everything they know.

Demi: I trust there are no objections to that, everyone?

Mare: O-of course not!

Shalltear: They shall pay for their disrespect to Ainz-sama with their bodies.

Sebas: I do not object.

Sebas: However,
Sebas: There is the possibility that Tsuare might have been hurt. May I request that someone who can use healing magic be dispatched as well?

05
Demi: It is Ainz-sama's wish to aid that human...
Demi: Solution, can you provide support to Sebas in this matter?
Solution: I understand, Demiurge=sama.

Demi: In that case, I have largely decided who among us will be attacking which locations.

Demi: Now, the person I am most concerned with is... Shalltear!
Shalltear: W-what is it, Demiurge?

Demi: You will be held in reserve. You have a tendency to forget yourself once you get drenched in blood.

06
Shalltear; I-I'll be fine! As long as the Spuit Lance sucks up all their blood...
Demi: That will not do either.

Demi: Also, Sebas
Semi: I will have to apologize to you in advance.

Demi: Rescuing Sebas and punishing Eight Fingers is only the first step of our plan.
Demi: However, I cannot reveal the details of the second and subsequent steps to you.
Demi: Once Phase One of the plan is complete you will return to Nazarick and you will no longer be involved in the matter.

Sebas: I understand
Sebas: In that case, I shall begin my preparations.

07
Demi: Right. I have something very important to tell you all.
Demi: Now then, could you create an illusion as I direct, Entoma?

Entoma: But of course~

Demi: You are forbidden from killing this individual.

Demi: Doing him some harm is acceptable but fundamentally you are to avoid doing so as much as possible.
Demi: I refer to you in particular, Shalltear.
Shalltear: I understand, you don't have to be such a pain about it!

08
Mare: A-ah, e-er... Is it really okay to not tell Sebas-san about this?
Demi: Given his personality, he is not the sort to harm that person out of hand.

Demi: ...But just in case, can I count on you to stop him if an emergency occurs, Solution?
Solu: I understand.

Demi: The entity who brainwashed Shalltear might be watching us for an opportunity which they can exploit.

Demi: I hope none of you will stray from your appointed locations without permission. Please seek me out if anything happens.

Demi: In addition, Mare knows the full details of my plan.
Demi: If an emergency should happen and I am uncontactable, Mare will assume operational command.

Shalltear: W-what about me?
Demi: While this is doing you a disservice... you will be STANDING BY as I told you earlier.

09
Demi: I am concerned about that Blood Frenzy of yours, after all.

Shalltear: I told you, I un-der-stand!

Demi: What's the matter?

Demi: ...Is that so? If it came up at such short notice then it can't be helped.

Demi: Mare. I apologize. We have just received news that there is another Eight Fingers location to attack.

10 (page 20)
Demi: Therefore, I would like to change your attack location. Take Entoma with you just in case.

Mare: Y-yes! Ah, please, er, leave it to me!

Demi: A good answer.

Demi: After the first phase of the plan concludes, we will move on to the second phase.
Demi: (Failure is unacceptable.)
Demi: That will be the most important part of our operations in the Royal Capital this time round.

Demi: (If this operation succeeds)
Demi: (It will demonstrate the usefulness of the Guardians to Ainz-sama.)

Demi: Now then, I will explain in greater detail.
Demi: This is the plan for Phase Two-

11
Demi: --The plan for Gehenna.

12
Climb: In that case, it won't stand out...

Lakyus: Will the leaders for each team please gather up!

Lakyus: From this point on, our seven teams will be splitting up to attack the Eight Fingers hideouts.
Lakyus: After suppressing each building, the leaders of each team and Marquis Raeven's bodyguards will move on to the remaining location.

13
Lakyus: As each team suppresses their location, do your best to incapacitate and capture the personnel you find, but if that is impossible, go ahead and use lethal force.

Lakyus: We're going up against a massive organization that rules the criminal underworld.

Lakyus: Be careful and do not slack off.

14
Brain: Are you done preparing?

Brain: Our team's ready to move off at any time. Also, this is the route we'll be taking.

Brain: That guy picked it out for us.

Gagaran: OI VIRGIN

15
Climb: Gagaran-sama... what brings you here?

Gagaran: What~
Gagaran: I was wondering if a certain virgin was feeling nervous, so I decided to come over and smack his ass.

Gagaran: Brain Unglaus...
Gagaran: The man who once fought on even terms with the Kingdom's Warrior-Captain.

Brain: Gagaran, the warrior of Blue Rose...
Brain: I see, you certainly do look like a warrior from an adamantite-ranked team. So, do I make the grade?

16
Brain: She’s here to see if I’m worthy of taking care of you, Climb-kun.
Climb: Is that true!?
Gagaran: Hell no… it’s not like I care what happens to you anyway…

Gagaran: Still.. I get that you’re the incredible warrior who took out “Illusion Devil”.
Brain: Well, thanks.

Brain: That said, it’d be better not to be careless. After all, there’s countless creatures in this world that are stronger than we are.
Gagaran: Huh… so you’re the careful type.

Gagaran: I kinda like these guys. Well, you might not be a virgin, but how about having a go?
Brain: Please permit me to refuse. I’d probably get squashed to bits.

17
Gagaran: Really now? What a shame.
Gagaran: Welp, take care now, Climb.

Brain: She’s a really nice person, unlike how she looks.
Climb: Gagaran-san’s the kindest person in all of Blue Rose. Even Evileye-san is a nice person in spite of her appearance.
(Evileye:  What a pain in the ass)

Brain: (A masked arcane magic caster, huh…)
Brain: (Come to think of it)
Brain: (Gazef also spoke with a mask-wearing magic caster.)

Brain: Hm?

Brain: Looks like it’s time to set out.
Brain: Then let’s move!

18
EIGHT FINGERS BASE - FRONT DOOR

Brain: So that’s it, huh? Looks like we got the right place.

Brain: In that case, we’ll be leaving the recon to you…

Brain: Lockmeyer.
Lock: Got it.
Lock: I’ll finish up and return without making a mistake.

19
Climb: Will he be alright?
Brain: I don’t know, but why not put your trust in him? His skills used to be orichalcum-ranked, if I’m not wrong.

Climb: Yeah, he’s a veteran adventurer...

20
Climb: Is that…

Climb: ...Sebas-sama?

Sebas: What a strange coincidence it is that brings us together again. Is something the matter?

Climb: We ought to be saying that…
Climb: We’re lying in wait to attack a base belonging to Eight Fingers. May I ask what you’re doing here, Sebas-sama?

21
Sebas: Oh yes. In truth, the girl from yesterday whom I was helping was kidnapped by them. I decided to answer their summons and thus I have presented myself here.
Climb: Is that true!?

Brain: We have a friend of ours who’s gone to scout ahead - he might have learned something about this.

Lock: Wait! It’s me!
Lock: I’m back from scouting!

22
Climb: This is Sebas-sama, the gentleman who helped us capture the “Illusion Devil” some time back. A friend of Sebas is being held in this place and his plan is to rescue her.
Lock: I see…

Brain: You came back just in time. Did you learn anything?
Lock: Ah, yes.

Lock: First off, that place looks like a training ground of some sort.
Lock: I didn’t look around too much inside there, but it looks like it belongs to Eight Fingers’ Security Division.

Lock: There are holding cells in the building, and I saw a woman being held there.

23
Lock: Also, one more thing…
Lock: I saw five members of Six Arms in there.

Climb: Five people!?

Brain: So after Illusion Devil’s capture, they decided to gather all of them.

Climb: This is… possibly the worst thing that could happen, but also possibly the best.
Climb: if they’re all gathered here, that would mean taking the other locations would be easy.

Brain: So what should we do?

Sebas: If those five are only on Succulent’s level, then they will not be a problem.

24
Lock: Is this old dude insane?
Brain: He’s strong.

Climb: (If we had Sebas-sama’s help…)

Climb: Sebas-sama

Climb: If you would be willing to do so, would you kindly lend us your aid?

Sebas: But of course.

25
Sebas: In that case, I shall take on Six Arms. I shall face the enemy head-on; in the meantime, I hope you will help me rescue Tsuare.

Climb: Understood. We shall retrieve Tsuare-san unhurt, without fail.

Lock: Hmm… Our comrades won’t be too suitable for sneaking, given the armor they’re wearing. They’ll only be necessary during the fighting after the rescue…

Lock: What if we had them cast invisibility spells on the three of us?
Lock: We’re probably the most appropriate members of the group when it comes to things like this.

26
Climb: In that case, please give us some lead time, Sebas-sama.
Climb: We’ll be sneaking in first.

27
Lock: The first cell around the corner holds a woman.

Lock: Looks like it’s as deserted as it was when I came around just now

Lock: That being the case, let’s move fast and save her.

28
Malmvist: You’re on time.

29
Sebas: So you’re Six Arms, I see.

30
“Thousand Kills” Malmvist

“Dancing Scimitar” Edstrem

“Void Cutter” Peysilian

“Undying King” Deibanock

Sebas: “Undying King” …What a foolish moniker you chose for yourself.

31
Edstrem: Old man, so you’re pretty strong, huh?

Malmvist: I can guarantee you that we’re the most skilled among Eight Fingers.
Malmvist: So having one of us get beaten is bad news for us.  That idiot didn’t get that.

Malmvist: Especially since he lost under the eyes of Coccodol.

Walking Corpse: Well, it can’t be helped since he went up against Brain Unglaus, huh.

Malmvist: Still, we can’t allow that.


32
Malmvist: We can kill Unglaus and the Golden Princess’ lackey later on.
Malmvist: But you were the one who planted the seeds of all this trouble in the first place.
Malmvist: So we’re going to kill you first, old man.

Malmvist: Look up there.
Malmvist: We’ve got big shots from all over gathered to watch this.

Sebas: Is Zero among them?
Malmvist: Well, about that...

33
Malmvist: The hell was that for? You want to pick a fight?
Sebas: Please do not pay that any heed. May I know where she is, then?

34
Malmvist: And if I told you she was dead?

Sebas: I doubt you would be that merciful, would you?

Malmvist: Correct! We’re nowhere near as nice as that.

Malmvist: That woman’s going to be a present for Coccodol. So we’re going to take good care of her.

35
Sebas: (He’s not looking where the thief said she would be. Therefore...)
Sebas: I see, I see…

Sebas: While it is annoying that Zero got away…

Sebas: Since this is a rare opportunity, why don’t you all attack me at once?

36
Walking Corpse: ...The hell did you say, human?
Edstrem: Have you gotten cocky because you beat that small fry?

Malmvist: Old man, warriors of our level can tell how strong an opponent is at a glance.
Malmvist: And from what I can see, compared to us, you’re--

Sebas: I am very strong, you know.

Sebas: Like I was saying before, having you come at me one by one is bothersome, so I would like all of you to come at me at once.

Sebas: That way, you should be able to last about 10 seconds, no?

37
Walking Corpse: Are you underestimating us, human...

Sebas: Underestimating others?

Sebas: That would be what you are doing.

Sebas: My name is Sebas.

38 (page 48)
Sebas: The one who gave me that name was the mightiest warrior
Sebas: The greatest supporter of the master whom I serve.

Sebas: But all that is wasted on you low-lives.
Sebas: Now then, I tire of speaking to you.

Sebas: I shall end this presently.

Sebas: There is only one person in all the world who deserves such a title
Sebas: He who sits astride his lofty throne.

Sebas: How DARE a presumptuous undead creature of your inferior status claim it for yourself.

[His unwavering loyalty is the source of his wrath!]
