=== Names And Natures Do Often Agree ===
Victim's name is a reference to him being a sacrifice or offering as it relates to his ability that is activated on death. Despite the accuracy, Ainz believes it to be cruel.

=== Cast Pearls Before Swine ===
Whenever Momon looks at Hamsuke, the phrase "cast pearls before swine" comes to mind. Meaning that he is wasting his time by offering something that is helpful or valuable to someone who does not appreciate or understand it.
