Full Summary
Suzuki Satoru returns home after another gruelling day in the dystopic World of 2138. After eating a meal of multivitamins and liquid lunch, he retires to his chair and activates his Neural Nano-Interface. Through this device, he enters the DMMO-RPG game YGGDRASIL. Upon his entry into the game world, Momonga is greeted by Peroroncino. Momonga notices his armor is different, and asks how it came to be so. He realises that Peroroncino used a Cash Item to enhance it, a direct violation to the No Cash Item Alliance creed. Momonga is disappointed in Peroroncino, but the later pleads it was the only way to enhance his armor. His pleas of forgiveness however make Momonga relents, admitting he likes the armor.
The two make their way to the meeting where the clan of Nine's Own Goal is taking place. At the meeting, Nishikienrai reports an amazing discovery, a new dungeon located in Helheim. The clan agrees to investigate the dungeon once the meeting is over. Immediately then after, Touch Me announces his intent to dissolve the clan, causing the rest of the clan to protest. Touch Me however informs them that he wishes to make Nine's Own Goal into an official guild, however he does not wish to take over leadership of the guild and elects Momonga as its first guildmaster. No one complains, satisfied with the decision.
The next topic begins with the name of their guild, as it was decided that Nine's Own Goal could not be used. Warrior Takemikazuchi however changes the words of the original name and presents it as Ainz's Own Goal. The name is quickly accepted by the newly formed guild. At the end of the meeting, the guild departs to the location of the newly discovered dungeon.
