Chapter 316 - Chapter 316 Seizing The Depiction of Nature and Society

Seeing Kenichi reinforce Demiurge's ice sculpture into an iceberg, the crimson flames in his skeletal pupils instantly flickered.

Although Ainz had no face and couldn't show expressions, it was quite clear that he was very angry right now.

"Insolent person! How dare you speak to the great Supreme Being Ainz-sama in such a tone!"

Before Ainz could speak, the fully armored Albedo, clad in black armor, sharply rebuked Kenichi in a shrill voice.

As she spoke, Albedo prepared to attack Kenichi, but was stopped by Ainz.

"Albedo, wait a moment!"

"As you command!"

Albedo, who had been extremely furious just a second ago, instantly changed her expression upon hearing Ainz's words.

After responding to Ainz, she retreated to his side again.

"It seems you haven't yet understood your situation."

Ainz stared at Kenichi and spoke in a mocking tone.

"Situation?"

Kenichi naturally understood Ainz's meaning.

Currently, he, Erza, and the others were trapped inside the space of the [Depiction of Nature and Society].

This space was controlled by the owner of the [Depiction of Nature and Society].

According to Ainz, Kenichi, Erza, and the group had already been captured.

However, Kenichi didn't mind.

After all, in the Fairy Tail World, he had devoured the rift and acquired [Space-Time] magic.

A space like this…

As long as he wished, he could leave at any time with Erza, Kagura, and the others.

Ainz was a cautious person.

Now, seeing Kenichi trapped inside the [Depiction of Nature and Society's] space yet acting so composed.

He immediately became vigilant.

If an ordinary opponent were trapped in the [Depiction of Nature and Society] and showed such an expression, Ainz would definitely think, 'Is this guy an idiot?'

But with Kenichi, Ainz wouldn't think that.

Although he hadn't truly fought Kenichi yet, from Kenichi using magic to create Bukubukuchagama, to using ice to freeze the Floor Guardian Demiurge.

Ainz clearly understood that the human before him was an opponent worthy of his caution.

'Showing no sign of tension at all... Is he pretending to be calm, or does he have a trump card, believing he can easily leave this space?'

Just as Ainz stared at Kenichi, constantly thinking to himself, Kenichi looked around and spoke: "If I remember correctly, the [Depiction of Nature and Society] has a setting: if the person trapped inside manages to break out, the [Depiction of Nature and Society] will automatically change owners."

As soon as Kenichi finished speaking, Ainz's heart jolted.

Just as Kenichi said, although the [Depiction of Nature and Society] was incredibly overpowered…

If the person trapped inside could successfully escape, the [Depiction of Nature and Society] would become the possession of the escapee.

"You know quite a lot!"

"Indeed, the [Depiction of Nature and Society] has such a clause."

"But the prerequisite is that you can leave here alive!"

Ainz coldly said this to Kenichi, then turned his head and said to Aura: "Aura, take action!"

"Understood!"

Hearing Ainz's command, Aura responded, then immediately activated the [Depiction of Nature and Society].

Within the World Item [Depiction of Nature and Society], there were over a hundred different spaces to choose from.

The moment Aura activated the [Depiction of Nature and Society], the environment around Kenichi, Erza, and the group instantly underwent a drastic change.

They saw that the previously frozen buildings and forest had vanished, replaced by an endless sea of fire.

This place was like a molten lava hell.

Kenichi, Erza, and the group, who had just been transferred to this space, happened to be in the sky.

Without any foothold, everyone was falling towards the sea of fire below in a free-fall trajectory.

At this moment, Ainz, Albedo, and the other members of the Great Tomb of Nazarick were in another stable space, watching Kenichi, Erza, and the group in the molten space through an illusory screen before them.

"Ainz-sama, why go through all this trouble of transferring them into the Depiction of Nature and Society instead of just killing these humans directly?"

The fully armed Albedo, looking at Kenichi, Erza, and the group through the illusory screen, asked Ainz with a dissatisfied expression.

"These humans are not ordinary humans!"

"Dealing with them isn't that easy!"

"Even Demiurge was frozen by them!"

"Using the Depiction of Nature and Society against them now serves two purposes: one is to deplete their magical power, and the other is to observe their abilities. This is very important!"

Ainz stared at the virtual screen and explained to Albedo.

"My apologies, Ainz-sama, I didn't consider that much!"

Albedo immediately apologized to Ainz.

"As expected of Ainz-sama, this is truly a brilliant move!"

Cocytus beside them seemed to let out a puff and praised Ainz.

If it were under normal circumstances, hearing praises from Cocytus and the others, Ainz would probably feel somewhat bewildered.

But now, with a powerful enemy at hand, he didn't dwell on it.

"Cocytus, you go and free Demiurge from the ice seal!"

Ainz turned his head and commanded Cocytus.

"As you command!"

With that, a void portal appeared behind Cocytus.

Soon, he was teleported to the space where Demiurge was frozen.

After Cocytus left, Ainz turned his gaze back to the virtual screen before him.

On the screen, they saw that Kenichi, Erza, and the group, who had been falling continuously, suddenly had an exceptionally huge fire dragon appear beneath them.

Carried by the fire dragon, Kenichi, Erza, and the group soared through the fiery space filled with flames.

"A dragon?"

"How did that dragon appear?"

Ainz, seeing Kenichi, Erza, and the group suddenly carried by a giant dragon, felt the crimson flames in his skeletal eyes flicker.

"Ainz-sama, that fire dragon seemed to appear out of thin air!"

Hearing Ainz's question, Aura beside him hurriedly answered.

'Out of thin air?'

'This is the space of the Depiction of Nature and Society. Summoning-type magic shouldn't be usable here, right?'

'Could it be creation-type magic?'

Ainz stared at the fire dragon on the virtual screen and thought to himself.

Ainz himself knew how to use creation-type magic.

However, what he used was 7th tier Necromancy magic, which created Death Knights.

But now, this created creature was clearly a dragon.
