Summary
Albedo and Shalltear Bloodfallen, who are wearing school uniforms, are fighting over a button and draws the attention of Ainz Ooal Gown. He is bewildered by the argument until Demiurge and Yuri Alpha arrive. They are also wearing school uniforms making Ainz realized confused. Demiurge then explains that he recently found a notebook in one of the Supreme Beings' rooms. The notebook illustrates a story of a handsome man being fought over by ladies for his second button.

The two Floor Guardians having been inspired by the story strive to reenact the story and asked Demiurge and Yuri to participate. Demiurge asks Aiinz if he would participate with Yuri offering him a uniform of his own to wear.

Dismayed Ainz plans to end this insanity only to come face to face with the long looks of Albedo and Shalltear. Now terrified at disappointing them, he still attempts to avoid being part of it stating that the uniform may not fit. However the women happily reply they prepared two separate uniforms for him, Shalltear's being white while Albedo's being black. The two then argue which dress uniform should Ainz wear though in the end both respect each other's argument and wish to see Ainz wear both.

Having enough Ainz takes the uniform in Yuri's hand. He then tells Mare to come over and gives him the second button, to the shock of the women. Ainz tells them not to misunderstand stating that each will get a chance to possess it in the following years. Though disappointed, Albedo and Shalltear look forward to next year to win Ainz's affection. Demiurge and Yuri break in tears in resolving such a situation.

Afterwards the event is created on Nazarick's calendar as a festival called the Graduation Ceremony in which the second button will be granted to the most outstanding Guardian.
