**Chapter 33: "Lost in the Great Tomb"**

---

**\[Scene: Rimuru's Office, City of Tempest – Early Morning]**

The office was unusually quiet. Rimuru sifted through correspondence. Veldora lounged on a shelf, polishing his claws. Milim banged a spoon on a teacup. Ramiris burst in, waving a swirling, violet-glowing crystal.

**Ramiris (breathless):**

"I activated it last night! This portal feels
 ancient, majestic, like a giant dungeon calling!"

**Milim (eyes sparkling):**

"Dungeon calling? That's my favorite ringtone! Let's go smash—er, explore!"

**Veldora (stretching):**

"Unknown dungeon world: perfect for testing Dragon's Might. Lead the way!"

**Rimuru (calm):**

"Hold on. Ciel, scan the destination."

**Ciel (floating HUD):**

> "Dimensional signature: high—reminiscent of a long-offline virtual realm called 'Yggdrasil.' Current domain: 'Great Tomb.' No known rulers detected. Danger: unknown. Cultural integration: non-existent."

**Rimuru (smiles):**

"Sounds intriguing and safe enough. Let's go see what's inside."

---

**\[Scene: Edge of the Forest – Moments Later]**

A jagged, rune-etched archway hovered among the trees. Light pulsed within the portal.

**Ramiris (trembling and excited):**

"After you, friends!"

They stepped through as the portal shimmered shut.

---

**\[Scene: Vast Marble Hall – Great Tomb Entrance]**

They emerged into a cavernous hall ringed by towering statues, their eyes glowing faintly. Endless corridors branched off in both directions. The air smelled of spice and old magic.

**Milim (around 30 feet tall, whispers):**

"It's huge
 like a palace built inside a mountain!"

**Veldora (sniffs air):**

"Mana density is off the charts. This place was made by someone with
 epic scale abilities."

**Rimuru (eyes scanning):**

"Agreed. But nobody's attacked us yet. Let's tread lightly."

**Ramiris (floating close to Rimuru):**

"I'm seeing
 faint life-signs? Automated guards, maybe?"

**Ciel:**

> "Potential: NPC activity. Monitor energy spikes."

**\[Scene: Corridor – First Encounters]**

They turned a corner. A pair of twin guardians in elven attire—**Aura** and **Mare**—hovered over polished floors, swords sheathed.

**Aura (studying them):**

"Who are you? This area is restricted."

**Mare (tilts head):**

"You look
 different. Not from any known land."

**Rimuru (bows politely):**

"We apologize. We're travelers from another world, exploring new realms. We mean no harm."

**Milim (loud whisper to Rimuru):**

"Should I punch their swords out of their hands?"

**Rimuru (quiet):**

"Not unless we want an early boss fight."

**Aura (relaxes slightly):**

"Very well. I am Aura, and this is my brother Mare. You may follow us to our master's hall. Please stay close."

---

**\[Scene: Grand Staircase – Touring Nazarick]**

Up vast steps, they passed tapestries depicting skeletal figures, chess pieces, and dragons locked in battle. The party gawked at the opulence.

**Ramiris:**

"I've never seen decoration so
 regal."

**Veldora (eyes gleaming):**

"Reminds me of my own domain—if I actually had one."

**Mare (smiling):**

"You'll find your place here too, perhaps."

**Milim (nudges Rimuru):**

"I vote we put our names on a tapestry—like 'Milim: Demon Lord of Fun.'"

**Rimuru:**

"Let's keep a low profile first."

---

**\[Scene: Throne Room Entrance]**

They arrived before massive bronze doors. Faint chanting echoed within.

**Aura (softly):**

"Our master is waiting. Please, be prepared."

**Rimuru (heart steady):**

"Thank you, Aura-san. Everyone, stay composed."

Aura pushed the doors open. Inside, a vast circular chamber gleamed. At its center stood a grand throne—and upon it, a tall figure draped in dark robes, face hidden beneath a hood.

**Voice from Throne (calm, echoing):**

"Welcome, guests. State your names and purpose."

---

**\[Scene: First Glimpse of the Overlord]**

The hooded figure rose. As the robes shifted, faint skeletal hands appeared. The friends froze, adrenaline surging.

**Milim (wide-eyed):**

"He looks
 undead!"

**Veldora (smirking):**

"Undead or not, let's see how he stands up to my dragon breath."

**Rimuru (raising a hand):**

"May we introduce ourselves? I am Rimuru Tempest. These are my companions: Milim Nava, Demon Lord of Fun; Veldora Tempest, Storm Dragon; and Ramiris, Fairy Spirit Queen. We come in peace and curiosity."

The figure paused, then sighed—an odd, hollow sound.

**Ainz (unmuffled voice, calm):**

"Peace and curiosity, you say? Very well. I am Ainz Ooal Gown, master of this domain. You may dine with me shortly. For now, enjoy your stay
 and beware the dungeon's deeper floors."

---

**\[Final Scene: Chamber Gallery]**

As they left the throne room, Aura and Mare guided them toward a side gallery lined with doors labeled "Floor 1," "Floor 2," and so on.

**Rimuru (to the group):**

"So that's Ainz—he seems... friendly enough. Let's see what mysteries his dungeon holds, shall we?"

**Milim (eyes alight):**

"Dungeon
 derby
 let's do this!"

**Veldora (pounding fist):**

"Lead on, underlord! Or
 over-lord!!"

**Ramiris (nervous grin):**

"I hope there's no undead hug welcome committee."

They strode forward under the gaze of silent statues—ready for their first real adventure in this unknown, grand tomb.
