After hearing the Random System's explanation, Ainz nodded in understanding. His once despairing heart gained a little more confidence. If even the rules of the world stood on his side, then this war still had a chance of victory.
Just as the Random System had said, the enemies from another world were fighting away from home. They could not receive the assistance of their own world's rules.
