When Rota arrived in Ainz Ooal Gown's world, he did not mind taking on a few disciples. Being alone all the time was rather boring. Humans were not solitary creatures; they needed social interaction.
Winnie was excellent in every respect, a promising talent. With a little training, she would definitely become someone outstanding.
Before Rota could ask Winnie what she thought, she spoke first.
"Lord Thunder God, Winnie wants to study under you. Would that be all right...?"
As she spoke, Winnie used a move universally favored by girls—acting cute and coquettish.
Rota did not agree right away. Mainly because he wanted to show off his imposing aura a little more. It was definitely not because he wanted to watch Winnie act cute for longer. Definitely not!
After enjoying the sight for a while, Rota finally agreed to Winnie's request. If he kept watching, there would be a real problem.
"Being my disciple will be very difficult. You must be prepared to endure hardship!"
"No problem, Master. Winnie can endure hardship. As long as I can contribute to humanity, Winnie does not mind."
Rota shook his head and lightly rapped her on the head. "Child, do not put so much pressure on yourself. The first person you must always protect is yourself. Someone who does not even value their own life will never achieve anything great."
Winnie playfully stuck out her tongue and replied with a giggle, "Master is right. Your disciple will remember that."
