After teleporting from the Great Lake, Victim takes his leave from his master and the rest of the Floor Guardians to return to guard Nazarick. At the newly built base in the Great Forest of Tob, Aura apologizes for its shabbiness, Ainz Ooal Gown however thinks it is satisfactory. Ainz takes notice of a throne constructed out of bones. It is a gift from Demiurge who offers it to Ainz. Ainz hesitant to accept it instead orders Shalltear Bloodfallen to come forth and kneel to act as a chair for him. This act is to serve as a punishment for her 'rebellion' however the vampire feels ecstasy and joy while the other Guardians, save Albedo, praise Ainz's decision.

Ainz decides to observe how the lizardmen reacted to his ultimatum. He uses the Mirror of Remote Viewing to observe their preparations. While shiftng through the images, he comes across Zaryusu Shasha and Crusch Lulu mating. Ainz is shocked and quickly cancels the magic. The rest of the Guardians are disgusted at their actions, Ainz recovering quickly gives an explanation for the lizardmen as an instinct of survival.

It is dawn and Cocytus awaits the lizardmen. To start the impending duel, the Nazarick Guarders start clanging their weapons and feet in a rhythmic beat. The Zaryusu, the chieftains, and several lizardmen warrior and their Swamp Elementals watch as Cocytus easily slashes several trees.

Cocytus greets then and before commencing the battle, he conjures two pillars of ice to create a makeshift gate. He declares those that cross the gate, will have their lives forfeit but gives the option for them to flee. All the lizardmen warrior and chieftain unanimously agree their insistence to fight despite the odds.
