he still felt lonely.
“Well, symbol of the guild, shall we see what you can do? Or should I say ‘symbol of my guild.’”

Now he looked like a guild master.

A couple menu inputs later and the sentence about being a “bitch” was gone. “I guess that’ll do.”

“This is so stupid.” Momonga winced at his own idea and input the characters via the menu keyboard. It was a short sentence:
“And she’s in love with Momonga.”
“Ugh, how embarrassing.” He put his hands over his face. He felt he might collapse due to sheer mortification, as if he’d made up his own ideal lover and written a romance about it. He fidgeted. He was so embarrassed he considered changing it again, but he decided it was okay.

“Training? You?!” Aura’s and Mare’s eyes practically popped out of their heads. What was this most elite caster, the ruler of the Great Tomb of Nazarick who dominated all manner of lesser beings, talking about? But Momonga had expected this.

“Death is like a next-door neighbor when you live in a village. It’s not so rare for a monster to attack and kill people, right?”
