[ The scene returns to Kazuma's side. After the brief interlude with the panties, Vera still brought the diary before Ainz and the others.
The diary recorded the method to activate the device, but there were certain words Vera couldn't understand.
Ainz silently took the notebook, and Kazuma leaned in as well. After seeing the content of the diary, both of them were stunned: "Chuunibyou?"
"That's right!" Vera nodded, her gaze turning to the control console nearby. "The diary says to install the 'Proof of Chuunibyou' here. I don't quite understand the meaning of this word." ]

〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"It's confirmed, it's definitely that incredibly laissez-faire, sand-sculpture tech-otaku old man!"
At this moment, everyone wished they could drag that bald, sand-sculpture old man out and slap him twice. Just how many ridiculous things did you invent!?
He looks so laissez-faire, but every source of disaster has a share of your involvement. That would be one thing!
But if you want to be a villain, at least act like one! The method to activate the device is actually Chuunibyou? Could you be any more reckless!
.....
〜Type-Moon World, Fifth Holy Grail War Worldline〜
Looking at the ridiculous method in the diary, Illya was even more certain of her thought:
"This must be another one of his masterpieces. The initiator of various disasters, the King of Rotting in Kazuma's world!"
That tech-otaku old man, although he loved to rot away, had heaven-defying abilities. The Destroyer, the Railgun, the Crimson Demon Clan, etc., were all his masterpieces. A veritable master of causing trouble!
"King of Rotting?"
Emiya Shirou's mouth twitched upon hearing this. Illya's description was… really vivid…
After all, a person who discovers a Mobile Fortress has gone out of control and just sits inside waiting to die is indeed as laissez-faire as one can get.
"You only saw his rotting, but you didn't realize his diary is the main point."
Red A shook his head and continued in a deep voice.
"If you ignore those comical factors, you will find that his previous diary stories… were all satirizing war and insatiable people."
That scientist uncle invented many things to help the country after transmigrating. In the end, he wanted to become an otaku, but the country wouldn't allow it, so the uncle started to mess around later on.
"Eh?! So there was such a profound understanding?"
Tohsaka Rin was stunned for a moment. She thought it was just pure comedy.
Thinking about it carefully now, Archer's words did make some sense. After all, the previous diary had mentioned it.
After creating the Mobile Fortress Destroyer, sitting alone in the machine watching the out-of-control machine destroy his own country, that old man actually felt a hint of secret delight in his heart…
.....
[ Seeing the silence of Ainz and Kazuma, Vera was also somewhat disappointed: "Do you not understand the meaning of this word either?"
Seeing this, Ainz's tone suddenly became a bit strange: "No, I guess I do understand."
Seeing that the problem that had troubled her for a long time was about to be solved, Vera immediately asked urgently: "Please tell me the meaning of this word. What exactly is Chuunibyou?"
"That… rather than calling it a thing… It's more like…" For a moment, Ainz, not knowing how to explain, began to stutter.
Kazuma silently took over the conversation: "It's more like a sickness."
Vera was eager to know more information: "Sickness? Where is it located?"
"Hmm?" Ainz and Kazuma looked at each other, then answered in unison: "The brain?"
"Isn't that very serious then!" Vera was shocked. How could they activate the device and return to the original world like this?
Ainz thought for a moment: "In a certain sense, it is indeed very serious." ]
[ .....]
〜The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. World〜
"This sickness, how should I put it…"
At this moment, the students looked somewhat conflictedly at the class's recognized representative of Chuunibyou, Kaidou Shun, who had been clamoring about unsealing his right hand from the beginning.
In an instant, they all nodded with incomparable firmness and said with serious faces:
"It is indeed quite serious!"
" "…You guys, don't underestimate Chuunibyou too much. This symptom is quite terrifying!" "
Clang clang clang—
Kaidou Shun, who came with his own BGM, looked at his right hand wrapped in red bandages and snorted coldly:
"Hmph, all of this is just the prelude to the Symphony of Death. With my… Jet… Jet Black Wings' power… I will… protect this world."
Feeling the gazes cast by his classmates, Kaidou Shun, who was just in full Chuunibyou mode, suddenly became shy and weak. His voice was getting smaller and smaller until it was inaudible.
" "… Sorry, I overestimated Chuunibyou, and at the same time, I overestimated you, Shun." "
.....
[ Looking at the conflicted expressions of the two, Vera's expression also became solemn: "Is it an incurable disease?!"
Ainz answered without thinking: "No, it can be cured."
This incredibly firm tone instantly made Kazuma look sideways: "Ainz, have you already been cured?"
Hearing this, Ainz quickly denied it: "I have never been a Chuunibyou…"
Vera held a skeptical attitude towards this, then asked the two again: "Then what are the symptoms of this disease?"
"Symptoms, let me think…" Ainz stroked his chin and thought for a while: "People with Chuunibyou often have words and actions that are different from the general public."
"In daily social interactions, they make people speechless. It's probably something like that." ]
[ .....]
〜Projection of All Worlds〜
"This disease, I would call it a type of cancer… Although it can basically be cured in high school, the sequelae are quite serious."
And Ainz, stop pretending. Your biological son Pandora already exposed your Chuunibyou past during the physical examination.
.....
〜Re: Zero - Starting Life in Another World〜
"Symptoms of Chuunibyou?! Subaru, can you explain it a bit more clearly?"
Emilia looked at Natsuki Subaru with a strange expression. According to Ainz's statement, words and actions different from the general public…
Subaru seems to have some symptoms of Chuunibyou, too.
Thinking of this, Emilia added somewhat euphemistically:
"After all, this disease looks quite serious. It wouldn't be good if one accidentally caught it."
Being stared at by Emilia's 'innocent' gaze, Natsuki Subaru found it difficult to speak:
"Anyway, if you meet someone wrapped in bandages and wearing an eyepatch, saying weird things, nine out of ten times it's Chuunibyou!"
"Oh, so that's how it is."
Emilia nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite. So bandages and eyepatches are tied to Chuunibyou.
.....
[ Although Ainz explained it, Vera didn't understand at all. She could only look at Ainz again: "You perform it, Ainz! Now is the time when your power is needed."
Hearing this, Kazuma was already holding back his laughter on the side. He could already imagine what the situation would be like next.
Ainz refused directly without even thinking: "No, if it's a performance, Kazuma can also do it…"
But how could Kazuma let him have his way? He immediately put on a pleading posture: "I beg you, Ainz."
"Remember this, Kazuma!" Ainz slowly took a deep breath.
Then, Ainz glowed with green light all over his body. Resisting the urge to commit suicide, his face full of shame, he began to strike various strange poses and started the demonstration.
"My name is Ainz Ooal Gown, the ruler of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the ruler of the Sorcerer Kingdom! One who loves death, and is loved by death."
After striking this series of strange poses, looking at Kazuma, who was snickering, Ainz's shame was about to explode…
What's with saying I'm loved by death myself? So embarrassing… Don't look at me with those eyes! ]
[ .....]
『 Viewers of Countless World 』
"Ahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. The forced calm on Ainz hasn't stopped the entire time."
"Kazuma's nasty smile can hardly be held back… I can't hold it back either, hahaha."
Even the people outside the video couldn't help but laugh at this scene. What followed was a feeling of rejoicing—thankfully, the person suffering social death wasn't me!
.....
〜KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World〜
Regarding Ainz's behavior, the group of senior Chuunibyou patients in the Crimson Demon Village also gave their evaluation. Just one word… Professional!
"Although missing the eyepatch makes it a bit lacking, having that handsome skeleton appearance to support it makes up for this defect."
"The choice of words isn't bad either… In summary, he has learned the essence of our Crimson Demon Clan's genius girl, Megumin!"
The Crimson Demons nodded affirmatively at Ainz's performance on the screen. They didn't expect that besides the Crimson Demon Clan, there was someone else so talented!
〜OVERLORD World〜
"Kazuma, YOU REMEMBER THIS!!!"
Ainz said through gritted teeth, the green light on his body similarly never stopping.
What kind of experience is it to be forced to perform one's dark history in front of strangers?
Maybe it was hard to say before, but now Ainz, who wanted to die, could answer this question very clearly…
He could guarantee that, psychologically speaking, there was no punishment more cruel than this!
"Why is Ainz-Sama's reaction so big?"
Albedo asked Demiurge beside her in confusion.
Demiurge also shook his head:
"I'm not clear this time either. Isn't this just a self-introduction by Ainz-Sama?"
That's right, in the eyes of the Guardians, what kind of Chuunibyou was this?
Wasn't this just the Supreme Being's self-introduction? Everything he said was true; not a single word was false.
