He believes in her potential and desire to improve herself, so he encourages her.

Ainz brings her as one of two guardians to accompany him to the land of the dwarves. Season 4 sees Shalltear at her most capable and reliable. She starts out as an impulsive character with a thirst for carnage.

She also starts the series with clearer flaws to improve on. She is one of the floor guardians with the most screen time and character development throughout the seasons. Shalltear is very different from most of the other floor guardians. She tends to value brute strength over intellect. She is madly in love with Ainz and while she is one of the most powerful guardians, she is not the most intelligent or level-headed. Her human appearance resembles that of a young girl, but her true form is a pretty horrid appearance resembling that of a lamprey monster. Arguably, one of the main reasons he won was because of his knowledge about her as an NPC before he came to this world. In her fight with Ainz, she was so powerful it really looked like the only way he would win was with plot armor, which he did. Shalltear is the second most powerful floor guardian, falling under only Albedo. By this point in the show we’ve established that Momonga is stuck and can’t access any user interfaces, so it’s silly that more time is wasted on him standing around instead of showing off the cool things that can happen in this world.Shalltear Bloodfallen is considered by many to be a “true” vampire, and she is the floor guardian of the first to third floors of Nazarick. Instead of watching their quick battle, we get to see Momonga stand around some more with very brief cuts of the twins’ action. Momonga uses his staff to summon a fire elemental monster, which two NPC twins fight. Things don’t really improve when we finally get to see some action. Sure, she’s programmed to be overwhelmingly in love with him, but her overreactions were awkward and him “forgetting” that he was still fondling her breast wasn’t funny.

I by no means don’t mind fanservice, but it’s a little beyond ridiculous when the NPC Albedo starts blushing and moaning as Momonga touches her hand and eventually her breast. Momonga’s first meaningful interaction with a now living NPC is gross. Once the servers shut off, Momonga finds himself stuck in the game and the once-lifeless NPCs around him begin to take on personalities. It was funny to see him try to balance his own kind mannerisms with his character’s role as an intimidating ruler. Though we don’t know what he looks like in real life, in Yggdrasil Momonga is a towering skeleton dressed in robes with bright red eyes, which contrasts nicely with his personality. Momonga sitting in his throne makes him look like an evil king. Still, it was cool to see more of Momonga’s guild base, the Great Tomb of Nazarak, which is essentially a dungeon complete with non-player character bosses. Momonga has already established why he loves the guild, so this just felt like a waste of time. Eventually Momonga ends up in his throne room and starts listing off names of characters from the guild that I know I won’t remember. This was enjoyable at first, but the scene dragged on for too long. As he wanders through the guild base, Momonga reflects on the adventures and accomplishments he achieved with his guild. With Yggdrasil scheduled to shut down, Momonga decides to stay in the game until its servers go offline. He sits at an impressive level 100, is in charge of a massive fortress, and wields a godly weapon of incredible power. For two years, protagonist Momonga built a powerful guild in the fantasy DMMO-RPG (Dive Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) Yggdrasil.
