Overlord Manga Chapter 57.1

This is the first part of the fifty-seventh chapter of the Overlord Manga.

Summary
Guu though injured, heals at a rapid speed, which Ainz Ooal Gown comments to be due to his racial background as a troll. Ryraryus Spenia Ai Indarun seeing what just happen is filled with fear as Ainz views them as ants at his feet. But Ainz sees the Demon Snake of the West attempt at escape and orders Aura Bella Fiora to capture him. The dark elf summarily seizes the naga by the neck and drags him to a distance at Ainz's order. Ainz then turns to attention to Guu and his minions. The undead approaches, and Guu shrinks back in fear. This does not go unnoticed by Ainz finding it funny that Guu's confidence has vanished and echoes what the troll said about those with long names being cowards, and yet here in this situation it is contradictory. He calls out to Aura and Ryraryus to ask his name is that of a coward, which Aura happily states it to be glorious, as does the naga at duress.

Guu seeing Ainz distracted strikes a blows on the Overlord, but it has no effect. Ainz calls the troll's act cowardly as he cuts Guu's right arm with a swing of hid staff. Recoiling in pain, Guu cries out and demands to know what Ainz is and why his attacks are not working. The Overlord in an intimidating fashion states that he is the one who will bring death to Guu. Having no choice, Guu orders his trolls to attack Ainz and Aura. Ainz canot help but feel disappointed in this and how Guu would break an one on one duel. Deciding that play time is over, Ainz uses his skill of Despair Aura V which causes all the trolls in the cave to drop dead.

Ainz takes the opportunity to examine Guu's sword noting it to be a magical item that can change size and has a poison effect. He wonders if he should give it to the village and the idea of using Zombie Trolls. Ryraryus who had witnessed the scene is told by Ainz that he would be kept alive as he had some value. The naga in fear for his life hastily swears his loyalty to the Overlord seeing it natural for the weak to serve the strong. Unimpressed by the servitude, Ainz is more interested in what the naga said about the dark elves which Ryraryus swears he will tell him everything he knows. Ainz inquires if the naga had any subordinates, which the latter confirms he indeed does. However since he was negotiating with Guu before Ainz came he did not bring any as it would have been difficult to escape with his minions if negotiations broke down. A question is raised if Ryraryus has any trolls under his command and is given the answer that one is within the naga's followers.

Aiz considers using the naga's troll to replace the Giant of the East, but decides against and orders Aura to take Ryraryus and his minions back to the base she is building. He places the Demon Snake of the West under her command telling her that they may have a use for him. After Aura's hand is removed from his neck, Ryraryus prostates before Ainz, begging that he would never betray him so as to save himself from a possible death. The Overlord finds it curious that Ryraryus was able to gleam that much from his intent and asks if all nagas are able to read his emotions. Ryraryus states that its not so much as a special ability only that he is able to read the interests of a person. Satisfied with the answer Ainz tells his new follower to gather his minions.

Enri Emmot returns to Carne Village with where the rest of the Goblin Troop are pleased that she was able to sell the herbs and brought back many arrowheads for them to use. Jugem also informs her hat the chief of the village wishes to speak with her and seeing that she intends to visit decides to go with her.
