Bloodlust is in the air--and plenty of real blood too! Shalltear is on the hunt, but she may not like what she finds. Ainz sent her out for information, but when Blood Frenzy activates, the time for talk is over. Can anyone, undead or alive, put an end to her reign of terror...?

The Sacred Kingdom has enjoyed a great many years without war thanks to a colossal wall constructed after a historic tragedy. They understand best how fragile peace can be. When the terrible demon Jaldabaoth takes to the field at the head of a united army of monstrous tribes, the Sacred Kingdom’s leaders know their defenses are not enough. With the very existence of the country at stake, the pious have no choice but to seek help wherever they can get it, even if it means breaking taboo and parlaying with the undead king of the Nation of Darkness!

The lizardman conflict comes to a decisive and bloody end as Ainz turns his attention north towards the humans once more. The Re-Estize Kingdom's princess has beauty, intelligence, and kindness in spades. She's guarded by a fiercely loyal young man-who also carries a secret torch for her. His vow to protect her will take him from courtly intrigue deep down into the underbelly of the country. Will the steadfast youth be able to protect his golden princess...?

The dust has settled after the final battle with the Elder Lich, but it's only the calm before the storm. When the overlord returns bearing the full weight of his army, the Lizardmen know this is truly the end. For the denizens of Nazarick, though, the outcome is more uncertain. Cocytus has grown to respect the brave tribal warriors--it would be such a shame to kill them all...

The Baharuth Empire has laid claim to the Kingdom’s capital of El-Rantel, and Ainz stands at their front lines! The conflict has barely begun, but the Kingdom’s army already finds itself in shambles at the hands of the necromancer’s super-tier spell, Iä Shub-Niggurath. Their only options death or shameful defeat, Gazef bravely steps forward...but finds himself faced with an unexpected choice of his own...?

The workers sneak into the inexplicable, treasure-filled tomb with hopes of earning fortunes beyond their wildest dreams...and the forces of Nazarick lie ready in wait for them. While there are any number of ways for unwary raiders to meet their end in what was once the most legendarily difficult dungeon of Yggdrasil, one thing remains certain—all the foolish “sacrifices” who chose to invade Ainz’s stronghold of their own free will shall be punished for their transgressions...

The world is all yours. In search of lost rune technology, Ainz heads for the dwarf country with Aura and Shalltear in tow. On his arrival, instead of a welcoming party, he’s greeted by an army of creatures known as the kuagoa, poised to lay waste to a dwarven city. In his quest to obtain the secrets of the runes and even the rune crafters themselves, Ainz may find himself facing not only these strange subterranean creatures, but also the most powerful race that calls the Azerlisia Mountains home—frost dragons!

After a bloody turn of events, Ainz has established the Nation of Darkness, aiming to create a utopia where people of all races can enjoy everlasting prosperity-as long they kneel before him. His first goal is to expand the Adventurers Guild to nurture new talent, a task that requires him to vacate his throne for a journey to the empire. At the same time, all of the neighboring rulers have started nervously discussing plans for resistance while watching everything unfold, because when the undying king of an immortal nation makes his first move, the whole world trembles!

It's come down to this--a fight to the death, mano a mano, Ainz versus Shalltear! With the odds stacked against him, Ainz faces off against the deadly vampire lord. But Shalltear is not the only threat facing our hero--ahem, our overlord! In a far-distant reptilian kingdom, nefarious forces are on the move. Will Ainz need to meddle in the affairs of mortals yet again...?

The day of the battle with the Great One fast approaches. Can Zaryusu unite the lizardmen tribes before they're all wiped from this earth? The Red Eyes have agreed to an alliance, but the Dragon Tusks will be trickier. They prize strength above all else-meaning Zaryusu will need to defeat their chief in combat before they'll even think of hearing him out!

At last, Demiurge’s schemes in the kingdom begin bearing fruit…Between Jaldaboath and a powerful fighter capable of manipulating insects, the beleaguered humans have no choice but to rely on the Blue Roses!

With Momon spearheading the charge, the Royal Army finally enters into a pitched battle with Jaldabaoth and his horde of demons-who will come out on top? And, more importantly, what is the true objective of Demiurge’s “Gehenna” plan...?!

Nfirea’s had breakthroughs in both potion-making and his method for wooing Enri, but sudden changes to the behavior of dangerous monsters in the region threaten to upend his happy life in this peaceful town. And when Ainz learns of these disturbances, he decides on a whim to personally investigate the source of the problem...

After undergoing an intense interrogation, Sebas is faced with a difficult decision—maintain his loyalty to his master or stay by Tsuare’s side. Thankfully, a rare glimmer of Ainz’s benevolence grants Sebas the privilege of doing both! But with this boon comes even greater hardship. Sebas may have been allowed to keep Tsuare, but can he keep her safe…?

Three paths converge when the warrior Unglaus and the rookie fighter Climb witness a scuffle involving an old gentleman who turns out to be none other than Sebas himself. While the first of the group searches for his reason to fight, the second aims to become stronger for the sake of his life savior, and the third resolves to carve a safe path for the girl he has chosen to protect. What will become of this unlikely trio?

Visited by emissaries from the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Emperor Jircniv of the Baharuth Empire is faced with an ultimatum from Ainz Ooal Gown. Confronted with the overwhelming might of this mysterious enemy, his country’s only chance for survival lies in Jircniv talking his way out of this predicament…but even that faint hope is dashed after Ainz plays him like a fiddle during their negotiations. His only choice is to bet everything on a single play, setting in motion a future that no one could have imagined...

Now with the backing of the Baharuth Empire, Nazarick’s forces have proclaimed themselves the rightful owners of the city E-Rantel. The Re-Estize Kingdom won’t give up their territory so easily, however, and both sides prepare for a largescale war! Hoping to exploit Ainz’s weakness, Prince Barbro leads his troops to the humble Carne Village—but what he finds there betrays all expectations…Can the Kingdom stand a chance against the force of nature that is Ainz Ooal Gown?!

As the Eight Fingers' evil plans move ever forward, Sebas seems to deviate further from his original orders. When he finds an abandoned woman behind a brothel, his conflicting feelings of duty and justice are put to the ultimate test...Will the disciplined butler go as far as to sacrifice his loyalty to Ainz in order to save a mere human?

An army forty thousand strong is clamoring at the gates for human blood, and there is little hope of reinforcements. The Sacred Kingdom’s stron­gest paladin, Remedios, leads the defense of the city, but even she cannot stem the tide on her own. Despite the dire circumstances, the unimaginably powerful King of Darkness has refused to lend a hand for fear of depleting his magical energy right when he needs it to defeat Jaldabaoth once and for all. Time is running out for the defenders if they can’t figure out a way to survive on their own...!

A caravan flying the flag of the Nation of Darkness has been attacked by a noble who hails from the Re-Estize Kingdom. Coincidence...or conspiracy? Either way, Nazarick interprets this as an act of brazen hostility and readies for war! The people of the kingdom, still reeling from the disastrous battle at Katze Plain, reluctantly prepare themselves for another bloody day. When a ruthless campaign of extermination begins sweeping through the entire country, and near-certain doom looms over them all, every single living being within the kingdom’s borders must decide for themselves how to weather the storm that is Ainz Ooal Gown!

War with the Nation of Darkness is inevitable—or so the Theocracy’s leaders believe with every part of their beings. With such an obvious threat on their borders, there’s no time to waste on lesser concerns, so they decide to eliminate the elf king who has been a thorn in their sides for too long! Meanwhile, Ainz sets out for the elf country on what he’s decided to call a paid vacation. His real goal is to create an opportunity for Aura and Mare to make some friends their age—even as the Theocracy armies march on the capital! The twins know their wise ruler has his hopes pinned on them and won’t stop until they bring this forest under the control of Ainz Ooal Gown!

Who knew making friends could be this hard? Ainz and Mare have donned disguises and joined Aura in the dark elf village, where things aren’t exactly going according to plan.The villagers have no idea how they should interact with these extraordinary visitors, and it looks like finding some friends for the twins is going to be a lot tougher than expected. Meanwhile, the Theocracy’s invasion finally knocks on the doors of the elf capital, prompting Ainz to make his move even as some ofthis world’s most powerful figures pursue their own interests in the besieged city…

Can the floor guardians actually enjoy telling ghost stories about creatures far less frightening than themselves? Will the (completely hypothetical) live-action adaptation of Overlord ever match up to Albedo’s exacting fangirl standards? Is Pandora’s Actor capable of doing something cool for once in his life? If you too need a change of pace from your quest for world domination, come see what hijinks the denizens of Nazarick are up to this time.

Deep in the unexplored reaches of the dungeon, a corpse is discovered—one that shouldn’t exist. After Iarumas is resurrected, his memories of life before death are gone, and he spends his days delving into the dungeon to retrieve the bodies of dead adventurers. Can they be revived as well? Or will God reduce them to piles of ash on the altar? Either way, Iarumas collects his finder’s fee. And though his skills earn him some grudging respect, he’s also scorned for this cold, utilitarian attitude. The living keep their distance—Iarumas consorts primarily with the dead. That is, until he meets Garbage, a feral young swordswoman who’s the sole survivor of a massacred party. With Garbage by his side, Iarumas ventures deeper, scouring the dungeon for clues to his past, avoiding monsters, traps, and the inevitability of a permanent ashen demise.
