Note From the Author: Strait to the point, I am just going to write down whatever comes to mind, No planning, no revising, minimal editing. I am stuck on my other story because I am trying to perfect it, but I haven't published anything in a while, which bugs me. While this is a crossover story, I am an Ainz over Lelouch kind of guy, soo... yeah. That's why it's here. Prepare for some run on sentences, lol.

I own neither show and nothing here should be mistaken as being anything other than fan fiction, derp.

Prolog: The call.

Ahead of Demiurge, two maids opened the two massive doors ahead of him. The natural majestic nature of it all was proof that over the months after the guild had been transported to this mysterious world, the glory of The Great Tomb of Nazarick was as bright as ever. As Demiurge passed through the door, he took note of two things. He hadn't come to visit Momonga-sama in-

I mean, Ainz-sama.

Demiurge reminded himself. He hadn't talked with the supreme being since Ainz last corrected Demiurge, but that was through messaging and a bulky file full of details. This will be the first time Demiurge would get to see Ainz since nearly the beginning of this whole operation. Since his last visit, two things had changed. Ainz office had constant noise as various inhabitants were busy working, and the maids no longer was announcing anyone visiting, people just came in as they pleased.

Albedo had gossiped and complained about it to Demiurge, him being the only one smart enough to understand her plight. This reorganization was no longer showing Ainz the respect he deserves, and while Demiurge agreed, it may be a necessary evil for the time being as they familiarize and establish the guild within this new world. But as Ainz pointed out, this new 'central hub' idea had several major benefits. Demiurge remembered his master's words clearly:

"First of all, in order to pull off this operation, we need to maximize our efforts. Not just working harder, but to works smarter, to collaborate and talk with extreme effectiveness. With all the critical components in one room, whenever something crucial comes up that needs discussing, we will already be in one room ready to discuss the issue. Not just that, but at a fundamental level this also means that by the nature of this system, information will be shared almost instantly with anyone who needs it, especially me if it is something critical we need to know, discuss, or make a choice on. Lastly, by skipping some formalities we can speed up this process so no time is wasted. We are already behind and already lost one opportunity, we mustn't let ourselves trip over such minor things."

Brilliant! Demiurge chirped, even though it was just a memory.

Because of this reorganization, Ainz main office had become 5 offices in one. Ainz and the Treasury worked closely together, with Albedo's assistance. There was information gathering, a special operations team, and so on. The main purpose was to get a bearing on this worlds technology, how Ainz Ooal Gown measured up, and be ready to fund and supply for future operations once the guild would announce itself. A bit of energy found its way into Demiurge's stride as he approached Ainz desk, excited knowing that what he was about to announce was the tipping point, as now the guild would change gears and finally present itself as the one true entity to rule the world. Ainz noticed Demiurge approach, and finished his last remark to Mare before settling down, hands folded on the table, ready to receive Demiurge's update, with Albedo and Mare on either side of Ainz also waiting. Ainz spoke first, trying to skip the impulsive nature of the NPC's to pause and bow to him.

"What do you have to report, Demiurge?"

"I am most pleased to inform you that operation 'Day of the Dead' is a go, my lord."

Demiurge still bowed a bit, with one arm gracefully crossing in front. Ainz stayed still, as far as anyone could tell, and stayed like this for a second or two before leaning back in his chair and bringing a hand up to his chin. The lights of his eyes went out as he questioned Demiurge.

"Everything is ready?"

"Indeed."

"Including the 'Zero' amendments?"

"Yes, I have made the changes to my plans as you instructed. Thank you for-"

"What about the preflight checklist?"

Demiurge paused for a bit, but he could even see Albedo wanting and expecting as well.

Right, no time for basking in Ainz's glory~

Without further delay, Demiurge brought up the clipboard in his other hand.

"Everything is ready, my lord."

"Excellent!"

Suddenly the room went quiet as everyone started to silently choke. As Ainz got out of his chair, no one else moved. Everyone was paralyzed by an intense pressure. The floor guardians were the only ones who recognized the sensation, it was like the feeling they had back when they first pledged their fidelity to him when they first arrived. But this time, it was much more intense. As Ainz kept walking, heading out of the room to where Demiurge temporary lab was, the NPC realized that this was not a time to stay still. This was the feeling of Ainz Ooal Gown, the feeling of his strength and determination now that the guild was moving onto the next phase. They could tell, Ainz was very happy right now. Demiurge knew he should feel very proud right now, but he and the other NPC's were all busy trying to muster up the strength to just move again, much less the strength to follow after Ainz now as he teased everyone with his power. Ainz hadn't noticed no one had started to follow him as his mind race in a panic, all the while, his calming aura kept triggering as a side effect of being undead

Crap, crap, crap! [Calm] I knew this day would come! [Calm] Now is the time I have to make first contact. Why am I so scared! [Calm] I've been practicing for almost 3 or 4 months now, I even reorganized Nazarick a bit so I could keep practicing while working, talking shouldn't be this hard! [Calm] I need to relax. I've been spying on the royal family long enough, they've provided plenty of data. I just need to act regal like them and everything will work out. ... yeah. Wait, why is my [Despair Aura II: Panic] active?! [Calm]

Eventually Ainz turned around to everyone, his power still flowing.

"Coming?"

Everyone nodded and followed after him, but no one spoke a word the whole walk to the lab. The walk seem to take forever, despite Ainz opening up a gate to the ice floor. Coming out of the gate, Ainz and everyone was met with bays of computer and dismantled Knightmare Frames, the cold working to keep the computers running at top speed without burning up. Demiurge had found ways to push the technology to its limits, with the help of Ainz knowledge of similar but more advanced technology. With all the hardware running, only one thing concerned the group. In one ice cave sat CZ2128 Delta, connected to her own bank of computers, her body partly dismantled. Altho not a computer, but rather an automaton with no circuitry, her brain still interacted with her body with a magical electromechanical spinal cord, which acted as her main interface other than her missing eye.

Ainz did not bother asking if she was ready, knowing full well everything was done and that she knew what she would be in for as they went through the checklist. Eventually, it was time. As Ainz casted some antispy spells and scrolls and then as instructed, CZ2128 Delta began to make the phone call. Her body acting as the phone, but her mind acting as the anti-detection, anti-hack software that would protect this call.

Kaname Ohgi, the unspoken second in command after suggesting Zero be made the rebel's new leader, sat in his temporary room. It had been a busy few days. After doing the impossible, their group had started to gain some attention. More importantly, they had started to get funding and donated equipment. After just receiving their mobile base and Knightmare frames that night, there was naturally some celebration. Ohgi was tired, but being the group's main point of contact with their supporters, he had to be on the ready for any calls. It was pretty late, too late to take a shower, so Ohgi figured no one would call at this time of night. Ohgi turned off all the lights, walking past his desk, and sat on his makeshift bed. Tired, he let himself lean and fall over, his head landing on the pillow. As he started to let all the excitement and stress flow out of his body as he relaxed and got ready to fall asleep, the phone rang.

"Now who would be calling at this time of night?"

Tired, Ohgi simply reached onto his desk to grab the communicator and brought it to his ear.

"Hello, may I ask who this is?"

Being an upstanding citizen in the past, Ohgi knew how to hold a polite phone call without revealing any details about his organization, in case someone other than their supporter would call. Naturally, he was speaking Britannia, in this day and age, it was a very common language. But most supporters preferred to keep using Japanese, a type of insult to the Britannian empire. The voice on the other side of the phone was deep but very soothing, and his Japanese was perfect.

"Good evening. Sorry for calling you so late, but I'm glad you picked up. I didn't interrupt anything did I?"

Ohgi was amused by how polite and concerning the voice was, but he wasn't stupid enough to not notice that his question had been avoided.

"No, no. I wasn't doing anything important. But it is pretty late, so..."

Ohgi still wanted to progress the conversation, getting the small talk over with, but naturally, he needed to know the nature of the call. He needed information, should he be Ohgi the missing teacher that someone mistakenly dialed his number, or unnamed contact point for the rebels? He needed information, but given the polite nature of the call, he didn't want to be rude by trying to be either direct, or the only one making demands. Not sure how to progress, the call quickly lost its professionality. Thankfully the voice was able to pick up on the clue.

"Ah yes, I'll be quick about this. I am a member of a significant group, and I and my organization has noticed the recent activities of your group. You do know what I am talking about right?"

"That I do, thank you for calling us." It seems they're trying to play it safe too, in case anyone is eavesdropping, since they're not mentioning anything specific. Do they know we record these call? "We are still growing and reorganizing after going under new management, but as you have seen, our new methods are generating greater results, and looking to the future, it looks like this may become a habit for us."

"That is very comforting to hear. I appre-, I mean, we appreciate what you're trying to do, and have found a lot of promise in your abilities. My organization would like to donate to the cause."

"You would like to make a donation?"

Ohgi, knowing the procedure, got out of bed. Leaving the lights off, he had started to turn on the screens to his already active computer.

"Give me a moment, and I'll-"

"No need for that. We already have your routing number, the deposit has already been made, I just needed to confirm who you were."

"Already?" How could the already have that? Have they donated to use before? Why are they calling if they already did?

Despite not needing the computer anymore, Ohgi still had to deal with the bootup process of the computer screens, and since he was already standing up, he sat down at his foldable chair, planning to see if he could find the value of the donation.

"The real reason we are calling you tonight is to see if we could arrange something more significant."

"Arrange something?"

Ohgi had to look away as the screen finally booted and flashed on, blinding him for a bit as his eyes had to see the bright screen in his dark room.

"Yes, possibly a meeting or a joint operation."

Ohgi was surprised, given the secret nature of the illegal operation that was terrorism, while a meeting was a lot to ask for because of the danger it brought, a joint operation is something of a completely different nature. If they were willing to get their hands dirty as well, this group could certainly be better trusted over most other groups.

"I see. Well I'll need to collect a bit of information so I can bring up this topic with everyone else tomorrow, and from there we should be able to make the necessary plans."

"Well, we are grateful for taking the idea under consideration. You should find an envelope with all the information you need has been laid beneath your keyboard. We hope you have a good night Ohgi, and we wish to hear back from you within the week letting us know of your decision."

"Wait-"

The line went dead. Ohgi was confused, how could they know his name? Now that his eyes were ready, he checked his computer. The computer only said that the connection was lost, but checking the history trying to find the recording, the latest entry caller ID only read 'ERROR' which surprised Ohgi. Spooked a bit by the nature of the call, Ohgi lifted up his keyboard. To his horror, there was indeed a letter. The paper envelope had a bit of a yellow tinge to it, as if it was ancient. The back of it faced upward, with the note "For Zero's Eyes Only" written beautifully, made of what looked to be fold foil. Not only that, but the entire envelope had a decorative gold foil design around the perimeter, with small gems encrusted into the design. There were drawing of dragons, elves, undead, and plants, all crawling around the border in one fluid and elegant pattern. Ohgi had never seen anything so beautiful or flamboyant, figuring that this is what royal letters must look like. Ohgi mouth hug open as he traced a red ribbon that made a cross around the envelope.

Ohgi turned the envelope over in his hands, finding a similar artistic pattern covered the front. A warning on the lip notifying anyone holding it that the message would fade away after being opened for 5 minutes. Ohgi images that the text would fade away like invisible ink, or something of a similar nature. Beneath the warning where the red ribbon should cross and tie together, a wax seal was put over just where one would open the letter. Stamped into the wax seal was a symbol that Ohig didn't recognize, but found impressive how elaborate it looked. To him, the Emblem for the guild look like a flaming sword with wings, was the best he could describe. The entire presentation just by the envelope itself was beyond words and it terrified him.

How could they sneak this in?

Ohgi knew what needed to be done tomorrow once he had the opportunity to bring it up. Before going to bed, Ohgi interfaced with the computer a while longer, bringing up another program to look at the their bank statement. He initially was going to skip the overview page and go straight to the history tab to find the exact amount, but the size of the font on the overview page caught his attention. No... not the font size, it was the amount of new zeros added to their summary. Ohgi physically choked on nothing as he started to stare. For a while he had to sit there counting the zero, not really sure what he was looking at. Desperate, Ohgi went to the history tab to look at the donation. There he could really face reality as the number stared back at him. Shaking, Ohgi slowly turned off the screen and went to bed, with nothing really going through his mind do to the aftermath of the shock.
