Overlord: The Path of Sin

Clan Base to Guild Base

The Forest of Freya and the Citadel of Sin were merged together, as if forming a chimera-like territory. Lust's Abode seemed to be floating and connected to the Castle of Valhalla. Each of these bases varied in size, with the Citadel of Sin being the largest, turning the entire amalgamation into a chaotic monstrosity.

This outcome infuriated Lucian, as he had anticipated a more organized and structured clan base. However, his frustration was eased when Suzune assured him that she could rectify the situation. She pledged to correct the entire setup and align it with Lucian's vision, which made him immensely grateful for her help. Thanks to her, he was able to create this base.

"Time to get some sleep," Lucian muttered as he logged out. The first thing he did upon logging out was sleep for a much-needed 20 hours.

"I can understand he wants to design the place all by himself because it's his passion project. But is it really necessary to play alone all day, customizing and spending time in Yggdrasil constantly?" Suzune grumbled as she glared at the maid who was calmly sipping tea across the table.

"Although I dislike that master is dedicating so much time to the game and not even letting me accompany him, I can endure it if it brings him happiness," Mei Mei replied, taking graceful sips of her tea.

"But he's been at it for a month now! And I still haven't received my rewards!" Suzune shouted, slamming her hand on the table.

"Stop being a bother to master. If he promised you something, he'll surely deliver, even if it takes some time," Mei Mei replied, finishing her tea in a single, seemingly unaffected gulp despite its temperature.

"Are you going somewhere?" Suzune inquired, watching Mei Mei rise from her chair.

"Yeah, I'm going to meet my friend. It's been a while since we hung out. With master busy in his addiction and you here to look after him, I can go out with peace of mind," Mei Mei said, collecting the tea cups, even snatching the half-drunk one from Suzune. She continued, "Normally, I wouldn't leave when master is in VR, but with you here, he's in good hands."

"Oh, okay. So, I'll be alone in the house today?" Suzune asked with curiosity as she watched Mei Mei open the door.

Suzune had recently started spending a lot of time at Lucian's house, even after finishing her work. Despite having her own apartment room in the same building, she had temporarily moved in, and it had been almost two months.

"Yes," Mei Mei replied before issuing a warning, "But don't even think of trying something funny with master." She gave Suzune a stern glare.

Suzune flinched and immediately waved her hands. "I-I would never..." Beads of sweat formed on her forehead as she responded.

"Mei-chan!" A cute girl in a one-piece dress waved her hand in the streets of Tokyo Arcologies. The bustling streets were filled with people in suits, and young couples seemed to be enjoying their lives despite the grim surroundings.

The girl had long black hair tied in a ponytail, matching her black eyes hidden behind glasses. Her petite face featured slightly chubby cheeks, giving her an endearing look.

"Mizuki." Mei Mei, dressed casually, walked over to her. Her slightly short hair swayed as she approached her friend.

"Mei-chan!" As soon as Mei Mei reached her, the girl jumped and hugged her.

"Stop it, Mizuki!" Mei Mei said, gently separating herself from her clingy friend.

"Come on! We rarely even get to meet! And why do you have to sound so distant all the time?" the girl pouted.
