Chapter 443: The Second Transaction Between the Two Parties

"How about it, is my sincerity enough? If you are willing, I am willing to teach you these two magics as a transaction."

These two magics are not very strong for Roa, they can only be regarded as a small trick.

But in Ainz's eyes, it's a little different.

"These two skills are very powerful."

Ainz's evaluation was like this, and his thoughts flashed in his mind. Ainz felt a little shocked, and even his eyes looking at Roa were a little wrong.

Roa didn't care about this, and the young man continued to say to Ainz: "How about this deal?"

This time Ainz didn't hesitate too much, he said in a deep voice: "Yes."

Two skills learned for free, and Roa gave a clone as a gift, what's there to refuse.

"Then, I'll create a body for you first."

Roa stretched out his right hand, and a magical power continued to spread forward along his right hand, and finally sank into the ground.

Under Ainz's astonished gaze, the ground began to tremble slightly. Soil gathered before Roa, and a strange magical fluctuation spread around, enveloping the earth in front of him.

"What kind of magic is this?" Ainz, curious, couldn't help but ask.

Roa casually replied, "Earth element shaping."

"Earth element shaping?" Ainz's eyes flickered. Roa glanced at Ainz, wondering what he was thinking.

Creating a body was not difficult for Roa. This wasn't because Roa had mastered similar magic, but because he had stolen the power of truth in the world of "Bladedance of Elementalers."

That is, the power of chaos, encompassing wind, fire, water, earth, and holy attributes.

In some ways, the power of chaos made Roa more versatile. Besides the uniqueness of his own magic power, he could also convert his magic power into corresponding five elements attributes.

For example, otherworldly darkness or the fire of truth.

Of course, the five attributes could also be fused together, resulting in the power of chaos.

Roa was not using the power of chaos, but simply the [Earth] element.

The earth element gradually took shape, and Roa began to sculpt the figure like a doll maker.

Soon, a body about 1.8 meters tall, a head shorter than Roa, was formed. Of course, this was not the final product.

With the body simulated, the remaining task was to create the facial features.

"Hey, Ainz, what kind of face do you want?"

Roa suddenly asked.

Ainz, who was watching from the side, was slightly stunned. He looked at Roa and pondered for a moment.

"A face?"

For some reason, looking at Roa's unbelievably handsome face, he felt a strange sense of bitterness.

In his previous life, Ainz was a very ordinary person, unremarkable in appearance, with no outstanding achievements or hobbies in school. Like most people, Ainz eventually became one of the masses.

And now, presented before Ainz was the legendary character creation feature, which stirred something within him.

"…To be honest, when I was human, I was quite handsome."

Ainz said this in a very serious and solemn tone. Roa looked at Ainz expressionlessly, and Ainz looked back with the same gaze.

"…So, you want me to make you a handsome face?"

"Ahem, just make it as handsome as I was in my previous life."

Ainz's answer gave Roa a headache. The young man squinted at Ainz, somewhat annoyed, and said, "Handsome? How handsome do you want to be? Forget it, forget it, I'll just pick a few faces for you."

With that, Roa began to sculpt according to the impressions in his mind.

Ainz watched quietly from the side, occasionally offering guidance: "This, the bridge of the nose should be higher, um, the eyes should be sharper, uh, the lips are too thick, make them thinner."

Roa, with a dark expression, modified Ainz's appearance, eventually sculpting a typical European face, blond hair and blue eyes, which did look somewhat handsome.

"Like this, is it okay?"

Roa's tone gradually became impatient. Creating this for Ainz had taken up a lot of his time.

Ainz circled the body, examining it, and nodded with satisfaction.

"So, what do you do next?"

"Next, I need to inject vitality into this body, using life force to maintain its activity."

Roa's gaze swept around, and with a wave of his hand, a large area was enveloped in holy light.

Ainz, with sharp eyes, immediately recognized that this was the skill Roa had used on Albedo not long ago.

The holy light enveloped the area not far away, and the gentle light sprinkled on the ground, resulting in the death of large patches of flowers, plants, and trees.

Who could have imagined that this seemingly soft and warm light was actually a technique that absorbed the life force of others.

Their vitality was constantly being stripped away, and the stripped vitality flowed into Roa's right hand, which Roa then transferred to the clay figure.

The vegetation began to wither in large patches, spreading like a plague. Ainz watched with amazement and admired Roa's methods.

At the same time, he thoughtfully said, "So this skill can absorb the life force of the opponent, and the absorbed life force can actually be used on others."

Ainz did have some similar skills that could absorb the life force of others.

However, those skills in his possession had various limitations. Either the absorbed life force could only be used on himself, or the target of life force absorption could only be humans or monsters.

It was impossible to do it as freely as Roa.

The waiting time was not too long. After about fifteen minutes, Roa stopped his movements.

Roa turned his gaze to Ainz and said, "This body has no consciousness. Relatively speaking, occupying it is very easy. It's not difficult for you either. Next, I will teach you my two skills."

Ainz nodded, his expression serious, and said, "Soul Division and Body Seizing?"

"Yes." Roa nodded slightly, his expression calm.

Ainz was a great mage who knew countless spells. Although they were all system skills, after Ainz came to this world, the game was transformed into reality, and he had a deep understanding of magic. He no longer felt that magic was just a skill like a player.

Two small tricks were not too difficult, but Ainz was not Roa after all, and he stumbled when using them.

Roa sighed and said to Ainz, "In that case, give me the sealing scroll. I'll record the magic in it, and you can use it."

"Is that so?" Ainz's eyes flickered, and he felt very regretful.

These two skills were indeed very good, but if he couldn't learn them, he couldn't learn them. He couldn't possibly pester Roa and ask him to teach him these two skills all day long.

However, when Roa inscribed this skill on the scroll, after using it a few times and finding the feeling, he might be able to completely master this technique. This was Ainz's wishful thinking.

"As for the scrolls, please inscribe a few more."

"That's natural."

With a wave of his hand, Ainz grabbed more than a dozen magic scrolls from the void.

"…"

Roa took the magic scrolls speechlessly and began to inscribe the skills one by one.

With the handover completed, Roa's purpose had been achieved, and Roa was ready to leave.

The many guardians of the Great Tomb of Nazarick stared intently at the two people floating in the air. They were extremely nervous, fearing that the two would start fighting again over a disagreement.

But to the surprise of many guardians, the two had been talking about something, and now the atmosphere was harmonious, with no signs of fighting.

The crowd couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what had happened.

It wasn't until Ainz saw Roa off that he slowly flew towards the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

Almost as soon as Ainz landed, six guardians surrounded Ainz, all looking at Ainz with concerned expressions, asking questions and expressing their care.

Ainz told them the results of his conversation with Roa one by one.

When the six heard that Ainz was going to pay three world-class items as a reward, the guardians' expressions changed in unison.

Albedo gnashed her teeth and said, "This human is really asking for a high price. As expected, humans are all greedy."

Ainz directly interrupted Albedo's words. His expression became extremely serious, and Ainz's gaze was as sharp as a knife, sweeping around the many guardians.

The guardians instantly fell silent, waiting for Ainz to speak.

Ainz let out a breath of stale air, and his skeleton trembled slightly. He said in a muffled voice, "This is something that can't be helped. We are not his opponents. Everyone knows this, right?"

"That guy used the super-tier magic—Fallen Down—at the beginning. Everyone saw it, right? What does this represent? I don't need to say more."

"If we really go to war, even the Great Tomb of Nazarick may be at risk of defeat. Even if we deploy all our forces on the eighth floor, we may not be able to stop him smoothly. After all, everyone has seen Roa's combat power."

"If we really want to stop Roa outside, or even kill him directly, we have to use at least one [Twenty]. I don't need to say more about the importance of [Twenty]. We can't afford such a loss."

Everyone was silent, and more or less unwilling expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

Ainz took everyone's expressions into his eyes, and he could only sigh, "In short, if it's really as he said, then these three world-class items are worth it."

Demiurge appropriately said, "Lord Ainz has indeed made the most important judgment. The Great Tomb of Nazarick can no longer accept more serious losses. After all, we have already used resurrection three times. If we let Roa continue to destroy it, rebuilding it will be a very troublesome matter."

With Demiurge's words, this matter came to an end.

The guardians were not too dissatisfied with Ainz's decision. They all knew the current situation.

If they forcibly went to war with Roa, they would definitely be the ones to suffer.

Shalltear's gaze quickly fell on the human following behind Ainz. She hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Lord Ainz, who is that?"

Everyone's gaze fell on the doll. This time, Ainz rarely showed a smile, and his voice became a little more relaxed. Ainz said to everyone, "This is a secret, but you will know in the future."

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune are intertwined. Roa was able to create such a body for him and tried to teach him those two skills. He could feel the other party's goodwill.

The quality of this body was also quite high, with a level as high as ninety-five, which surprised Ainz a little.

As a disguise, this body was indeed not bad, and he could do more things with it.

Of course, at this moment, he wanted to feel the emotions he had as a human even more.

…

After Roa finished all this, he quietly returned to the Royal palace, but this time he returned with a purpose.

The night was dark, and the wind was high. It was already three or four in the morning.

As the saying goes, a dark and windy night is a night for murder. Roa was preparing to kill a human this time.

That was the princess known as the [Golden Princess], Renner.

In Roa's opinion, Renner definitely had to be eliminated. If he didn't eliminate this guy, Roa felt that she would continue to cause trouble in the Royal capital. Only when the other party was truly lying in front of Roa would he breathe a sigh of relief.

Usually, he was most annoyed by those guys who liked to play tricks.

The reason was very simple. These guys would always trip him up in unexpected places.

It was naturally good to clean them up in advance.

Of course, Roa was acting secretly this time and didn't tell anyone.

He didn't think about explaining anything to Blue Roses and the others, nor did he want to stand on the street and point out Renner's crimes one by one to tell the people that they had been deceived.

There was no need for so much. For him, these were not important.

Passing through the deserted streets and looking at the messy ground, Roa arrived at the palace.

At this moment, after experiencing this doomsday-like scene, everyone in the Royal capital was mentally exhausted to the extreme.

After dealing with some trivial matters, Renner went back to her room to sleep.

In the end, Blue Roses and the others did not choose to tear off their masks. Although they also trusted Roa very much, Roa's words still could not make them make up their minds.

Roa was not surprised by this. He had more or less expected this situation.

It didn't take long to find Renner. Soon, he sensed a trace of evil aura remaining in a room.
