Dive Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.
Also known as a DMMO-RPG.
It is a type of game where you can enjoy an imaginary world as if you were in it.
Yggdrasil.
Released in 2126, it stood above all other DMMO-RPGs
due to its expansive map and unusually high player freedom,
making it explosively popular within the country of Japan.
Now, twelve years later, Yggdrasil is about to see its end.
Where did the answer go? Search for it
Where's my soul?
It's like a fear, just like a nightmare
Even when I wake, all I've got is bones
I'm in a panic? Get out, hurry
Oh, there're mysteries and miseries
Dead or alive, I'm being swayed by the line between them
If I wander, right to left to hell
Invitation to loneliness, withdrawal of emotion
I dance 1, 2, 3 steps on this dark stage
Raise your flag, march on, fight
My hand reaches for the mask's edge, but only my bones resound
Wars and swords, tears and blood
I suddenly find myself laughing at the overflowing power
Where is the answer? Search for it
Where's my soul? Where's my heart?
I'm getting swallowed up by reality
Don't hesitate, go this way
I don't know, I don't care
Even if I'm moving an imitation
I just have to live on in this world
Ah, the sadness of loss aches once again
Misery-World
It was fun.
It was really fun.
Momonga
Great Tomb of Nazarick – 9th Floor – Round Table
Hey, there. It's been a really long time, Momonga-san.
I didn't think that you'd come, Herohero-san.
It's been about two years, hasn't it?
It's been that long?
This is bad.
I've been doing so much overtime lately that my concept of time is messed up.
Isn't that a pretty bad symptom?
My body? It's completely worn out.
Whoa.
I'm sorry. I didn't come here just to complain.
Please don't worry about it.
Oh, I have to go soon. I'm way too sleepy.
Oh.
Please rest well.
I'm really sorry about this.
But, I'm really surprised that the Great Tomb of Nazarick is still here.
Huh?!
You must have been maintaining it
as the guild leader, Momonga-san.
Well, Nazarick was a base that we created together.
Momonga-san, thank you for all your hard work.
I hope we meet again somewhere.
Herohero-san has logged out.
Today is the last day Yggdrasil's servers will run.
Why not stay until the end?
No, I'm happy that he even came today.
I hope we meet again somewhere, huh?
Just when and where would that be?
You've got to be kidding me!
This is the Great Tomb of Nazarick that we built together!
How can he give it up so easily?!
No, that's not it.
No one betrayed me.
The guild weapon, Staff of Ains Ooal Gown.
We played recklessly to make this.
Some members used their paid vacation
and others fought with their wives to make time to get the materials for this.
But among the 41 members, 37 of them quit.
And even the three that were left...
Let's go. You are the testament to our guild.
There were two requirements for joining the guild Ains Ooal Gown.
The player's avatar had to be inhuman
and the player had to be a functioning member of society.
That's right, everyone's livelihood was at stake.
There were people who even made their dreams come true.
It can't be helped that they all chose real life in the end.
Sebas Tian
Oh, his name was Sebas.
And the combat maids of Pleiades.
We had you all guard the throne room, but no player ever made it this far.
As the guild leader, I should move them around one last time.
"Follow."
I'm sure the guild members will forgive me for doing whatever I want for just today.
Albedo.
The command was "stand by," right?
What were her settings again?
As the highest ranking NPC in the Tomb of Nazarick,
she supervises all of the guardians...
So long!
Come to think of it, the settings maniac, Tabula-san, was the one who created her.
On the outside, she is a perfect beauty.
By the way, on the inside she's a bitch.
Huh? What's this? A bitch?
Tabula-san always did love a contradiction in looks and character.
But, this is just too terrible.
You normally need a tool to change the settings, but since I have this...
Should I add something?
"She is deeply in love with Momonga."
Whoa! That's so embarrassing! I'm so stupid!
The command was...
"Bow down."
A relic of the past.
Me. Touch Me. Shijuuten Suzaku. Ankoro Mocchi Mochi.
Herohero. Peroroncino. Bukubuku Chagama, Tabula Smaragdina,
Warrior Takemikazuchi, Variable Talisman, Genjiro...
That's right. It was fun.
It was really fun.
I have to wake up at 4:00 a.m. tomorrow.
I need to sleep as soon as the server shuts down or it'll affect my job.
Hm?
Did they push back the server shutdown?
Where is my console?
I can't use chat or call a GM, either...
What's going on?!
What's wrong, Lord Momonga?
Lord Momonga?
Lord Momonga? Lord Momonga!
Is everything all right?
Is there a problem?
H-Huh? The GM call function isn't working.
Please forgive me.
An ignorant one such as myself has no answer to this "GM call" you speak of.
Her mouth is moving?!
If you allow me to correct this grave mistake, I will be forever grateful!
I'm talking with an NPC?
No way! Is there some kind of error occurring?
The staff functions just like it does in the game, but I can't use my console.
I can't contact the administrators, either.
What should I do?
Sebas!
Yes.
Is it okay for me to give him orders?
Ugh, just do it!
Sebas. Step out of the tomb and confirm the surroundings around Nazarick.
Understood, Lord Momonga.
Pleiades. Go to the 9th floor and guard it from possible intruders.
As you wish, Lord Momonga.
The NPCs are recognizing orders that aren't specified commands?
What in the world is going on?!
I have to contact the administrators somehow.
If I can't use the GM call function, maybe I can use the message skill?
But will a magic skill used to contact other players reach a GM?
No, can I even use magic right now?
So, Lord Momonga.
What shall I do?
Let's see. Then, come here.
Yes!
Whoa! She smells so good.
Wait, smell?!
There wasn't a function like that in Yggdrasil.
Albedo. I'm going to touch you.
Yes!
She has a pulse.
And, what is this? She's an NPC that only runs on an A.I. program...
Why does she look so alive?
But, this is the last test...
I have to confirm this no matter what!
Albedo. C-Can I touch your chest?
Huh?
Th-This is necessary!
That's right. Naturally. I have to ask her naturally!
You don't mya... mind, do you?
It was impossible to do it naturally!
Of course. Please touch me as much as you wish!
Let me assess the situation.
The fact that I can do an 18+ action like this means this isn't a new Yggdrasil game
and the chance that this is a completely different DMMO-RPG is also low.
There is a possibility that this imaginary world became real...
No way. But...
Conversing with the NPCs, their natural expressions, their scent...
These are all things that could never be programmed within a game until now.
Hey, just how long do I plan on fondling her breast?!
A-Albedo. I apologize.
You're going to take me for the first time here and now, right?
Huh?
What shall I do about my clothes?
Huh?
Should I remove them myself?
Or would you like to remove them, Lord Momonga?
S-Stop. Stop now, Albedo! Now is not the time...
No, we don't have time to be doing such things.
I-I am very sorry!
It's fine. Albedo, I forgive you completely.
More importantly, I have an order for you.
I will do anything you wish.
Except for the guardians of the fourth and eighth floor,
gather everyone to the fighting arena on the sixth floor.
Have them gather there an hour from now.
Understood.
This is terrible.
She is deeply in love with Momonga.
I dirtied the NPC that Tabula-san created...
Shit! I'll worry about that problem later.
I have to take care of the things I need to do right now.
It worked.
It looks like the ring's teleportation function has no problems.
It looks like I can use items.
Albedo and the others are loyal to me just like their original settings.
Then, what about the other NPCs?
6th Floor Amphitheater
The twin dark elves that Chagama-san set should be the guardians here...
Victory!
Aura.
Welcome, Lord Momonga!
Welcome to the floor which we guard!
I will intrude for a short while.
What are you saying?! You are the lord of the Great Tomb of Nazarick!
Its absolute ruler!
There is no one that would ever consider you intruding!
By the way...
Mare!
You're being rude to Lord Momonga!
Hurry up and get down here!
I-I can't, Sis...
Mare!
F-Fine!
Aw, jeez.
Hurry up!
Y-Yes!
Goodness!
I-I am sorry for making you wait, Lord Momonga.
Yes. I came today to have the two of you help me with something.
U-U-Um, i-is that the legendary item that only Lord Momonga can wield?
Right. This is the strongest guild weapon that we created together.
The Staff of Ains Ooal Gown.
Each stone in the mouths of the seven crowning snakes is a god artifact.
On top of that, the power in the staff itself transcends god level.
It is on par with any world level item.
Its automatic attack system is especially...
Well, anyways. That's how it is.
A-Amazing.
That's so amazing, Lord Momonga!
I would like to run some tests with it.
Yes! We will prepare immediately!
Also, Aura. I have called all the guardians here.
They will gather here within the hour.
Huh? Is Shalltear coming as well?
In Yggdrasil, you just had to click the icon on your console to conjure magic.
But now, that icon doesn't exist.
But if I focus within myself, I can tell...
the attack range of my magic, the cool down rate,
and how much MP I have!
Summon! Primal Fire Elemental!
A-Amazing!
Primal Fire Elemental. Its level is in the upper eighties.
Aura, do you want to try fighting it?
Huh?! C-Can I?
U-Um, I just remembered something I needed to do.
Mare!
Whaaaat?!
Primal Fire Elemental. Attack the twins!
Magic Shield!
As expected, this is a piece of cake for them.
It looks like the other magic skills aren't a problem, either. However...
Message.
As I thought, I can't connect to a GM or any of my guild members.
Yes. What is it, Lord Momonga?
M-My message skill connected?
Sebas? How do things look on the outside?
Well, there is a slight problem...
I see. I have called all the guardians to gather.
Come to the amphitheater on the sixth floor immediately and report what you saw.
Understood.
The two of you did well.
Thank you very much. I haven't exercised this much in a while!
Yes, you two must be thirsty.
I thought you would be a scarier person, Lord Momonga.
Hm? You think so?
I can be scarier if you'd like me to.
How you are now is better! It's definitely the best!
My, am I the first?
Well. I don't know what's going on in this world at all,
but it seems the NPCs are loyal to me.
Then I have to act like a proper superior in front of them.
I also have to collect information.
In Yggdrasil, I was max level. How strong am I here?
And, if this is another world, should I return to my old one?
I have no friends or family.
Just working and coming home to sleep every day, what worth is a life like that?
Now, everyone. To our supreme leader, the ritual of fidelity.
The guardian of the first, second, and third floors, Shalltear Bloodfallen.
I bow before the supreme one.
The guardian of the fifth floor, Cocytus.
I bow before the supreme one.
The guardian of the sixth floor, Aura Bella Fiora.
A-Also the guardian of the sixth floor, Mare Bello Fiore.
We bow before the supreme one.
The guardian of the seventh floor, Demiurge.
I bow before the supreme one.
The leader of the guardians, Albedo.
I bow before the supreme one.
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 One.
We offer our complete loyalty to you.
Don't you give me your love and passion?
(Believe in love, even though there're borders and disturbances and more)
(I'm the only one who loves you because I'm crazy about you)
Let's ride to hell, I'll serve you and go
If it means we can be together, I wish we could die
Beyond the line there is no ending
I swear, I'm gonna be so fxxking grateful
Blessing word, you are supreme
I follow your orders loyally, your highness
You give orders, I won't give you to anyone
You are the most treasured existence
You don't know why my love is crying
I want to adhere, to the point of excessiveness
I want eternity, don't wanna cry
I'm about to go crazy with my jealous delusions
Don't you give me your love and passion?
Love is a riotous impulse, let go
Instinct over spirit, I demand more of your heart
I don't want to live in a world without you
Any future other than you, kill it, kill it
I would be happy to kill it for my love
(I'm imagining now, if you're mine.)
(It's like a paradise and haven and more)
(You're the only man who I love in my life and destiny and all)
Don't you give me your love and passion?
I know the border. It should be wrecked, go!
