However, this is ultimately a small place. It took considerable effort to promote Roya from Mithril to Orichalcum, and Roya didn't expect to become the world's strongest adventurer overnight.
Time flew by, and three days later it arrived.
That same night, Roya received a message from Ainz.
"The items are ready, come and get them."
Luo Ya had been preparing for a long time. The young man did not wear the green robe, but changed his clothes. At this moment, the young man was dressed in white, as white as snow. He had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and his eyes revealed a heroic spirit, giving people an unquestionable sense of pressure.
This was done intentionally by Roya.
Luo Ya made some minor adjustments to his original appearance, and this is what he ended up looking like.
To be honest, even with just a few minor adjustments, he exudes a heroic and spirited aura. Coupled with his white robe, he looks exactly like the protagonist in a fantasy novel that Luo Ya read in his previous life.
Using advanced teleportation, Luo Ya's figure flashed a few times, traversing the entire grassland and arriving at his destination.
By releasing a burst of magical energy and sensing the surroundings briefly, he knew Ainz's location.
Of course, Ainz didn't go alone.
He was accompanied by three guardians who appeared to be quite powerful, and there were also quite a few aliens hiding in the shadows using stealth skills.
When the two met, Roya saw a huge treasure chest next to Ainz.
Without a doubt, what Roya wanted was inside that box.
Ainz was also taken aback when he saw Roja's attire.
Because Roya's attire was something he had never seen before.
It doesn't belong to this world, nor to the style of Central Europe; it gives people a very strange feeling.
It feels a bit like the style of a mysterious major country in the East.
But I must say, the young man's demeanor and appearance are indeed quite captivating; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him strikingly handsome.
Of course, now is not the time to think about these things.
"Everything you wanted is inside," Ainz said first, pointing to the box next to him to show his sincerity.
Luo Ya nodded slightly, but teased, "It's just a deal, is it necessary to be so cautious? You've used half of your family's savings this time, haven't you?"
Roya looked at the three guardians behind Ainz, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
As mentioned earlier, all guardians are at the highest level of 100. Of course, there are differences in strength between level 100 guardians. The specific differences depend on the guardian's class and equipment. However, those who reach level 100 are generally quite strong.
However, this time, three guardians were dispatched, while a large army of aliens lurked in the shadows.
In response to Roya's words, Ainz replied in a matter-of-fact tone, "When facing an unknown and powerful enemy, it is always the right thing to do to be cautious."
"That's true."
Seeing that Roya hadn't made a move and his gaze was fixed on his subordinates behind him, Ainz couldn't help but urge him, "Take a look at what you want. If there are no problems, then this transaction will be considered a success."
Ainz reached out and opened the treasure chest, revealing the lineup inside.
The props were a mixed bag, and there were many random things among them, including the sealing crystal that Roya had mentioned.
Many of these items were things that Roya had never seen before. Ainz was afraid that Roya wouldn't understand their value, so he explained, "These are all magical items. I'll replace them with items that can seal magic, according to your needs."
"Of course, it's impossible for you to seal all the crystals. Even we don't have many sealing crystals. There are seven sealing crystals inside, which can seal any magic from the first to the tenth rank. They are one-time use items."
"I've used magic scrolls and other items to offset the remaining price difference. Is that alright?"
Luo Ya thought for a moment, estimated that the price was indeed that much, and nodded slightly in agreement to the terms.
"Then next up is super-tier magic."
Ainz reached into his robes again and tossed out a parchment scroll.
He said expressionlessly, "It contains several super-level spells that I have mastered. You can see which one you want to learn."
Roya opened the browser and saw that Ainz's mastery of super-tier magic was not extensive, and the truly valuable magic was kept hidden away, never to be shown to Roya.
A powerful instant-death spell like "The goal of all life is death," which can ignore the opponent's instant-death immunity and force an instant-death attack, was never even mentioned by Ainz.
Even so, super-level magic is still super-level magic, and it still has its own value.
As expected, Ainz's list only contained four super-tier spells, which were exactly the four super-tier spells that Roja had previously speculated.
First is [Skyfall], then [Change of Heaven and Earth] and [Gift to the Goddess of Dark Abundance], and finally [Star Wish].
In fact, Ainz had never used the Super Rank spell "Wishing on a Star." He was unaware that after the game transitioned to reality, this Super Rank spell underwent a dramatic change, and its effects far surpassed those of other Super Rank spells of the same type.
In Ainz's mind, this type of magic, like the previous three, belonged to the category of being rare but not indispensable.
Moreover, making a wish upon a star has a serious drawback: it requires consuming experience points to obtain a special buff.
Is experience important? Absolutely, it is extremely important.
For a player, what could be more important than experience?
The loss is permanent, while the gain is temporary, so in Ainz's opinion, this skill cannot be considered strong.
Even Ainz thought Roja wouldn't choose this skill.
The leather scroll couldn't just contain the names of these few super-level spells; it also described in detail the effects of these spells.
Although Luo Ya had expected this, he still watched for a while, a conflicted look on his face.
Seeing Roya's appearance, Ainz couldn't help but find it amusing.
However, upon further reflection, he realized that even a high-level magic caster like himself only possessed a limited number of super-tier spells. Although the opponent was powerful, in terms of the number of spells he had mastered, it was naturally impossible for them to compare with him, so it was only natural that they would show such an expression.
After feigning hesitation for a moment, Roja finally said to Ainz, "I choose this."
The direction he was pointing was clearly towards the extraordinary magic of making a wish upon a star.
Ainz's face quickly showed a strange expression, and he reminded him, "Are you sure it's this skill?"
"Ah."
Roya nodded, and Ainz didn't say anything more.
Next, Roya requested several more high-level spells.
First is "Heart Mastery," a high-level skill related to the realm of death, which Roya naturally wouldn't let go of.
In fact, Ainz was also surprised when he learned that Roa wanted to learn this skill.
Despite his surprise, he didn't refuse since Luo Ya wanted to learn.
In fact, Ainz also had his own little scheme in mind.
While the skill "Heart Mastery" is a powerful weapon in Ainz's hands, its actual effectiveness in Roja's hands remains to be seen.
Roya is not a necromancer and has no talent for instant-death magic. Even if he could cast [Heart Control], the effect might not be as good as he imagined.
After that, Roya selected several more support skills.
[Reject the Cocoon of Life] "Antilife Cocoon"
[Advanced Item Appraisal] "All Appraisal Magic Item"
【Magic World Holy】
[False Data Life]
[Bless of Magiccaster]
And a tenth-rank magic.
【Radiant Emerald Body】"Body of Effulgent Beryl"
These skills all belong to the auxiliary category, and their effects vary from person to person.
Roya is not a pure magician; he mostly uses melee combat, and skills that amplify all attributes are quite useful to him.
Of course, in addition to these, Roya also learned the three spells that interested him the most.
They are the fifth-tier magic—Resurrection of the Dead.
And the seventh-tier magic—Rebirth, and the ninth-tier magic—True Rebirth.
In matters of life and death, learn as much as you can.
The topic of life and death is unavoidable in any world.
Some worlds have extremely strict control over the boundary between life and death, while others have a more blurred boundary.
The world of Ainz Ooal Gown undoubtedly belongs to this relatively relaxed type.
There are many ways to resurrect a person in this world, although the conditions are quite harsh, but there are still ways.
The thirteen heroes who exist in this world could have come back to life if they hadn't refused to be resurrected.
The three resurrection spells in Ainz Ooal Gown's possession also have many limitations.
The first is the most basic resurrection magic, which is to bring the dead back to life.
It has quite a few stringent conditions. First, the body must be well preserved and the deceased must not have been dead for too long.
However, even if all the above conditions are met and a large amount of magic power is consumed to revive the opponent, there will still be an extremely high cost.
In this world, that would be considered losing a level, and by a significant margin, five or six levels.
However, this cost can be reduced by using a more advanced resurrection spell. Of course, losing a level is inevitable, and there may also be various hidden troubles.
