Contents BackgroundThe Sorcerer Kingdom was an idea born in the mind of 7th Floor Guardian, after he took the last of the, joke about world domination literally. This misunderstanding was only strengthened when Momonga changed his name to and ordered the NPCs to make that name 'an eternal legend in this world.' Afterward, Demiurge shared his epiphany with his fellow NPCs and they fully committed themselves to the false dream of making Ainz the Overlord of the. ReconnaissanceUpon arriving in the New World, Nazarick began doing reconnaissance to ascertain the situation. Taking advantage of a nearby settlement named being attacked, Ainz saved the villagers in return for any information they had. From this Ainz learned of the world's monetary system and the three nations surrounding Nazarick: the,. Not long after, the village was once again attacked by the, which he then captured and had the NPCs interrogate for even more information.To learn more about the world and its inhabitants, Ainz sent various NPCs on missions throughout the neighboring countries.
He himself partnered with and infiltrated the under the aliases ' and ' to gain access to their information network. Meanwhile, and infiltrated the Re-Estize Kingdom, and Demiurge went on a recon mission to the. Finally, Ainz had abduct bandits to learn more about the New World's.Over time, the NPCs grew more ambitious and convinced Ainz to massacre the local tribes and turn them into to bolster their forces. Finding this to be suspicious, Ainz sent the 5th Floor Guardian, to do the deed. However, the latter gained a respect for the Lizardmen and requested they be subjugated instead, which Ainz accepted. This confirmed Ainz' suspicions: the NPCs were evolving; so he needed to be careful, lest they might turn on him. Afterward, Nazarick went on to conquer the Lizardman Tribes and the rest of the, sparing those who submitted, while killing those who didn't.The arrival of Nazarick also greatly upset the natural balance within the, causing to appear.
This threatened the nearby Carne Village, which had been indebted to Ainz ever since he saved them. To put an end to it, Ainz slew one of the Forests apex monsters, the '.' Afterward, he turned it into and had it attack Carne Village to test its fortifications. During the assault, whom Ainz had ordered to keep surveillance on the village, saved the lives of. As a result, the villagers once again felt indebted to Ainz, securing their loyalty.During his mission in the of the Re-Estize Kingdom with the Solution, took under his protection, which brought him in conflict with the criminal organization and his loyalty to Ainz into question. Fortunately, Ainz allowed the slave to live and stay in Nazarick after Sebas proved his loyalty.
However, recaptured the slave, causing Ainz to order their destruction. Demiurge, on the other hand, believed they might be proven useful to his scheme and instead planned to take complete control of the organization.In order to create a distraction while they took control of Eight Fingers, Demiurge, alongside his, the, and Shalltear, attacked the Royal Capital, leading to a great battle with the Kingdom and Adventurer's Guild that became known as the 'Demonic Disturbance.' To hide their true identities, Demiurge created an alias named 'Jaldabaoth' and claimed to be looking for, while the Pleiades acted as his 'Demon Maids.' Additionally, the attack was also aimed to increase the reputation of Ainz' adventurer persona, Momon, which they accomplished by feigning being driven to retreat by him, causing him to become the hero of the Kingdom. Along the way, Nazarick has secretly lay siege to the Royal Capital's warehouse district. They have done so to secure the wealth and goods from within and later transport them back to Nazarick.
At some point, Nazarick's actions will only end up making the livelihood of people in the capital more difficult financially and economically worse than it was already in.Meanwhile, the sixth Floor Guardians, and, have managed to take control of Eight Fingers by having torture its leaders into subservience. Now in possession of the organization's vast information network, Nazarick had effectively completed its reconnaissance of the New World. Before the attack, Demiurge also met the Kingdom's Third Princess, who became a spy for Nazarick.With preparations complete, Demiurge announced his plan to turn Nazarick into an independent nation.
Up until this point, Ainz had been unaware of the NPCs true intentions, merely acting to ensure Nazarick's safety. Having no idea as to what was going on, Ainz had no choice but to play along with Demiurge's plans.Ainz, as Momon, traveled to the Empire where he met the Imperial Court Magician, and revealed his true identity and overwhelming power to him, after which he immediately joined his cause.
As per Demiurge's plan, Ainz ordered Fluder to tell, who had already grown interested in Ainz, about Nazarick's location and trick him into sending to invade it under the pretext of testing his strength.The Worker invasion was used to test Nazarick's defenses in a cost-effective manner. As planned, the Workers were slaughtered by the tomb's inhabitants at little expense.
Afterward, Aura and Mare invaded the Imperial Palace, claiming it was retaliation for the invasion they themselves had, in fact, caused.Chronology The Magic Caster of Destroy Arc Main article:and forced to personally travel to and apologize for the invasion by threatening to destroy the entire if he did not comply.plan was to declare war on the Empire by using the Worker invasion as a. However, he did not inform Ainz about this, as he assumed his master was already aware of his plan. Hence, when the Emperor proposed an alliance to help Nazarick claim in a desperate attempt to prevent war, Ainz accepted.
While the were initially confused as to their masters' intentions, Demiurge assumed he was using the Empire to gain legitimacy and quickly convinced his fellow Guardians of the advantages of this. Afterward, the Guardians went over possible titles for Ainz, with him eventually deciding on suggestion of 'Sorcerer King.'
Ainz's powerful magic and minions ushering utter despair and chaos to everyone around him including his allies and enemies. Unfortunately, when the Empire and the newly founded Sorcerer Kingdom sent an envoy to the with demands to cede E-Rantel, they rejected their terms. Two months later, the Sorcerer Kingdom fought alongside the Empire against the Kingdom at the.
During the battle, Ainz showed off his before proceeding to massacre the using a Super-Tier spell and five he summoned, all the while terrifying the with the display of overwhelming power. Afterward, the Kingdom was left so intimidated that its leaders unanimously agreed to hand over E-Rantel.Meanwhile, the Kingdom's crown prince, led a second force to to collect information on Ainz. However, talks with the villagers turned violent and fighting ensued. The prince's forces initially had the advantage, until used her last that Ainz gave her to summon a which drove them off. Afterward, Ainz had massacre the crown prince's remaining forces, having deemed him to be of no value.Three months later, E-Rantel was officially ceded to the Sorcerer Kingdom. By this time, much of the populace had fled and the remainder barricaded themselves indoors.
When Ainz arrived to claim the city, a boy threw a stone at him for his father who was killed at the Katze Plains. Wanted to execute him, but Momon intervened. Ainz then struck a deal with Momon; he became his confidant and in return, he would spare the citizens.
In reality, was acting as Momon and this was all staged to allow the Sorcerer Kingdom to solidify their rule without bloodshed. The Ruler of Conspiracy Arc Main article:With the successful formation of the Sorcerer Kingdom and winning a war against the Re-Estize Kingdom, they gained a new territory added to their nation. Thus, E-Rantel, a former territory belonging to the Re-Estize Kingdom now became the capital of the Sorcerer Kingdom and was ruled peacefully, with no revolts under Ainz's reign since the day of its annexation. The citizens of E-Rantel soon were living ordinary lives with used as city guards, as public servants, anAinz thinking of the Sorcerer Kingdom's ideal future.d used to pull cargo wagons.From this moment forward, Ainz stated that his country's sole aim of rebuilding the villages was merely to collect their produce as taxes and dump them into the Exchange Box. This way, the things his citizens produced from the labor they've done would become YGGDRASIL gold coins.
Through doing so, Ainz stated that the production of currency could be used to help make the Great Tomb of Nazarick even stronger. The task of rebuilding the ruined villages destroyed by the Slane Theocracy would be done with second or third sons of a family who did not have their own farm to work. Ainz promised to grant these people a plot of land and sent them out there. Because they had been attacked in the past, he permitted the Death Knights and Soul Eaters to go with them as bodyguards, ordering them to help the villagers with their farm work and heavy labor.At the same time, since the undead were on loan by both his country's citizens and traders, Ainz also planned to collect additional rental fees on them in the future, as well as the agreed taxes.However, the newly founded nation was not without its own share of inner problems.
Land Overlord Manual
As it is a non-human nation, no merchants were willing to trade with them. Also, due to the superior fighting prowess of the undead, became obsolete, causing the to go into decline. To deal with the latter, Ainz decided to change adventurers into explorers of the unknown, funded by the Sorcerer Kingdom. Another idea brought up by the Sorcerer King was to create a type of training facility, such as a labyrinth filled with Nazarick's POP undead for adventurers to train at. This way, a group of adventurers could delve into it and work together on fighting the undead before heading out to explore the far reaches of the unknown.On the other hand, the Sorcerer Kingdom sent their diplomat accompanied by to open formal relations with the Re-Estize Kingdom. While there, she worked with and manipulated lower-class nobles into becoming supporters for the Sorcerer Kingdom in preparation of annexing the Kingdom.
She also ordered Eight Fingers to import large quantities of food to the Sorcerer Kingdom, taking care of the problem of no one trading with it. Albedo stated that the large-scale food production started by the Sorcerer King is already underway. Additionally, the Eight Fingers is now using Ainz's Death Knights as heads of several divisions in their organization and the skeletons that were tasked with handling the mines.Meanwhile, Ainz traveled to the to recruit adventurers for his new Adventurer's Guild.
To do so, he challenged and defeated, displaying the power of the Sorcerer Kingdom. Ainz also visited Emperor Jircniv, unknowingly intervening and ruining a secret meeting he was having with the, preventing the two from forming an alliance against the Sorcerer Kingdom.
Afterward, the Emperor gave up on opposing the Sorcerer Kingdom and requested Ainz to allow the Empire to become its vassal state. Ainz would, however, only accept such a thing if it was done officially.Three days while later, the Sorcerer Kingdom received an official request for vassalization from the Empire. However, Ainz left handling it to Albedo and Demiurge, as he had shifted his focus to the.
The Craftsman of Dwarf Arc Main article:Ainz spoke about all sorts of experiments being secretly carried out by the Sorcerer Kingdom to strengthen Nazarick. Thus far, the Head Librarian and Demiurge were experimenting with the creation of scrolls out of various races.
As for Nfirea and Lizzie, the two were focusing on creating new potions under Ainz's order. Fluder was given the task of managing magic items. With other roles taken by these individuals, Ainz's next objective was to convince the dwarves of Dwarf Kingdom to take charge over manufacturing rune weapons in the Sorcerer Kingdom.As he has this objectiveAinz and his guardians journeying to the Dwarf Kingdom.in mind, Ainz hoped to open up trade relations with the Dwarf Kingdom for the first time during his journey there. One of these beneficial deals he succeeded with the Regency Council was offering to lend the undead to the dwarves for various purposes. This way, the dwarves could somehow benefit from using the undead as a form of manual labor and military force. The Dwarf Kingdom were also promised the Sorcerer Kingdom's high-quality foodstuffs and wines.
In return, however, the Sorcerer Kingdom would receive their nation's ores and runesmiths for craftsmanship as agreed upon with their arranged trade deal. On the other hand, another deal he promised was having himself and his servants grant them military aid. The kind of military aid where he would help them with re-conquering the ancient capital of from the and the.As promised, Ainz and his servants forced the Quagoa and the Frost Dragons out of their capital. Once they retook the royal capital of the Dwarf Kingdom back from the Frost Dragons, the Sorcerer Kingdom was able to gain the dwarfs' trust while smoothly moving forward with their trade deals. Fulfilling their end of the bargain, the Dwarf Kingdom handed over the runesmiths and ores to the Sorcerer Kingdom without a problem.
Henceforth, the runesmiths, along with their families ended up migrating to the Sorcerer Kingdom for a living, swearing loyalty to their nation's ruler, Ainz Ooal Gown.Meanwhile, Albedo and Demiurge handled the matter of the Empire's vassalization and wrote a draft with terms that were mostly favorable towards them. Demiurge later reported this to Ainz along with activities and plans for the Holy Kingdom.Sometime later, the dwarves settled in Carne Village after migrating to the Sorcerer Kingdom and peacefully coexisted alongside the humans, goblins and other residents. Not only that, as most of the Quagoa were massacred by the Sorcerer King's aides, the nation began taking in all of the remaining survivors under their rule.
Moreover, after the fall of the, the Sorcerer Kingdom recently subjugated its followers, the Frost Dragons under their rule. Said that the frost dragons were currently being used as air freights, aiding the Sorcerer Kingdom with the transportation of goods. The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom Arc Main article: andContinuing the Sorcerer Kingdom's aim of world domination, Demiurge secretly conquered the vast wilderness known as. He then forced its demi-human inhabitants into and attacked the neighboring Holy Kingdom, laying siege to its northern regions. Afterward, he began taking citizens to prison camps where he skinned them to produce magic scrolls for the Sorcerer Kingdom. In order to hide his connections to the Sorcerer Kingdom, Demiurge did all of this under his Jaldabaoth guise.By the time envoys from the arrived in E-Rantel, the Sorcerer Kingdom had once again expanded its influence since their business with the Dwarf Kingdom.
They had subjugated the of the Azerlisia Mountains and taken control of the that haunted the Katze Plains. Meanwhile, humans and demi-humans, including, and, were starting to coexist, with even working jobs. Were also hired to build roads and houses to accommodate the different races using laborers. In addition, the Empire's vassalization had been completed.Neia Baraja and the Holy Kingdom's envoys bowing in the presence of the Sorcerer King.During their audience with Ainz Ooal Gown, the envoys requested to be lent Momon to help liberate their nation. However, when Ainz asked what they had to give in exchange, they could only offer their gratitude.
Despite their progress, Momon was still necessary to keep order and thus, could only be lent out after at least three years. Despite this, Ainz decided to lend Momon to them in two years. After the meeting, Ainz secretly approached the envoys and struck another deal with them; he would personally help retake the Holy Kingdom while teleporting back and forth to the Sorcerer Kingdom to prevent his absence from being noticed, and in return, they would give him the rights to take control of. While Ainz seemed to be acting on his own, he was actually following a plan Demiurge laid out to him.Upon arriving in the Holy Kingdom, Ainz proved to be instrumental in the Liberation Army's early victories.
This greatly improved public opinion towards the Sorcerer Kingdom, which up until that point had been rather negative. He also gave the bodyguard assigned to him, which he claimed was made using runecraft in an attempt to advertise the Sorcerer Kingdom's latest endeavor. Over time, the trust of the Holy Kingdom's citizens turned into devotion and they build around him.After a while, Demiurge stopped giving Ainz instructions, believing this would allow him to improve on his plan.
However, this instead made Ainz afraid of messing up the plan. To get himself out of the situation, he claimed to Demiurge and Albedo that the Sorcerer Kingdom needed a practice drill in case he were to die and they began planning to fake Ainz' death. Demiurge had take on the guise of Jaldabaoth and attack Ainz while the Pleiades acted as his Demon Maids. After putting up a show for onlookers, they successfully faked his death. Afterward, the Sorcerer Kingdom spread the news of Ainz's supposed demise to see how everyone would react.To guarantee the Liberation Army's victory, Ainz had join them by having her state she was one of Jaldabaoth's Demon Maids and he had taken control of her. During one of their battles, the Liberation Army allied themselves with a race known as the, who later migrated to the Sorcerer Kingdom in search of refuge.Meanwhile, Ainz secretly conquered the Abelion Hills for the Sorcerer Kingdom and successfully made all its residents who weren't loyal to Jaldabaoth part of his military.
When the Liberation Army was about to be defeated by Jaldabaoth and the Demi-Human Alliance, Ainz saved them by leading his new forces. He then once again fought the Evil Lord acting as Jaldaboath and defeated him in front of countless onlookers, just as planned.After the liberation, there were no qualms about the Sorcerer Kingdom claiming the Abelion Hills. In reality, this was Demiurge's plan all along: allowing the Sorcerer Kingdom to openly lay claim to the region.
In addition, the Holy King, had secretly been replaced by serving Demiurge and is currently working to destabilize the Holy Kingdom in preparation for future annexation by the Sorcerer Kingdom. Overall, it was a huge gain for the Sorcerer Kingdom, save for Ainz failing to advertise runecraft. CultureThe NPCs who are close aides of Ainz Ooal Gown. In the power structure of the Sorcerer Kingdom, the most important thing wasn't one's own powers or abilities, but the fact that the NPCs were created by one of the Supreme Beings. Regardless of the difference in the NPC's levels or roles, they are still treated with respect due to being created with a given intelligence and backstory programmed to them. In other words, the, which are personal creations of the 41 Supreme Beings were given commands based on a higher level of authority over the POP monsters. However, in terms of the command structure managed between these kinds of NPCs, the way they act around each other and feel compelled to obey a high-leveled NPC is still the same to some extent.
For instance, this was especially the case with NPCs who were handed down the duties of being a. Below the rank of Floor Guardian was said to be NPCs with the position of who are each led by them respectively. After the Area Guardians were supposedly the battle maid, and then the and the.Ranked below these NPCs, are POP monsters that are automatically spawned by the mercenary system from within. In other words, they form the servant caste. The status of the servants are based on their level and job class and are not associated in any means with the floor level they were spawned from.
With the subsequent summoning experiments conducted by Ainz Ooal Gown, numerous permanent undead summons have entered into the service of Nazarick. More so, it seems that some of the undead were treated with all due respect from the Floor Guardians since they were made in part by Ainz's own creation.The NPCs of Nazarick displaying their fealty.To the inhabitants of Nazarick as a whole, the former guild members of Ainz Ooal Gown besides Ainz were regarded and treated as gods that deserved their utmost respect, devotion, and undivided attention. For the NPCs however, Ainz’s words meant everything to them and he is ranked higher than any of the other Supreme Beings authority-wise with the exception of their creator. According to the author Maruyama, the foremost ranking of the order of all the NPCs' loyalty starts from one's personal creator then Momonga (the guild master), and lastly the remaining 41 Supreme Beings.Due to a majority of the denizens living within the tomb descending from a hierarchy of demi-human and non-human racial backgrounds, humans were primarily seen as an inferior species. Most, but if not all of the creatures in Nazarick view humans as another type of specimen, toy or food. Although there are, who are exempt from this kind of rule, which is generally ignored.In Nazarick, various terrible experiments and tortures tend to happen frequently by either in the hands of Demiurge, and members of the.
On other occasions, the victims who are captured by the Sorcerer Kingdom have also ended up being held captive in the for other purposes other than to interrogate them. Demiurge made it one of his many goals to create a hybrid of monsters through interbreeding the human and demi-human lives he had taken from, the, and the 's citizens.Nazarick inhabitants will usually treat each other with politeness, where one would expect no less from a non-human race. However, the inhabitants were seen to be brutally barbarous to any outsiders who enter their ground as they are quite extremely protective of the tomb itself. Nevertheless, this general policy has been relatively flexible, due to the need for strengthening Nazarick and the advocacy of the upper echelons. For this exact reason, outsiders have been allowed to migrate into the sacred tomb, as to militarize and assimilate their general population from Nazarick with the native demi-humans and non-humans in the New World. At first, non-human species that were discovered in the New World were tolerated, but it is mostly due to kinship and the original membership policy decreed by the Supreme Beings.Upon seeing that more could actually be gained from incorporating conquered races rather than destroying them, Nazarick decided to alter its policy and allowed other races, such as demi-humans entry. While accepted into the non-human nation, they are still considered to be at the bottom of the social hierarchy.
Despite this, the subservient races are given a fair share of protection and welfare for their benefit when living under the dominion of Nazarick.Since the founding of the Sorcerer Kingdom, Ainz stated there were currently four festivals that were planned to be held in his nation for special occasions. Among these festivals were two which are particularly called the 'Sorcerer King Grand Thanksgiving' and the 'Sorcerer King’s Birthday.' ReligionThe ideology surrounding Ainz Ooal Gown and his NPCs.All denizens living within the Great Tomb of Nazarick worship and idolize the as gods though with the exception of few newcomers like Tuare.
This is also the same for several NPCs such as the Pleiades, Floor Guardians, and Area Guardians who were created by them. An NPC's loyalty will sometimes remain with the Forty-One Supreme Beings, but with the exception of their creator's well-being who is more important to them than the rest. Therefore, the NPC created by them will without a doubt rebel and fight against the other Supreme Beings if they were ordered to do so according to their creator's wishes.Even though almost the entirety of the Forty-One Supreme Beings have vanished, the NPCs still remembered them clearly, relying on their old sayings and items for moral support.
As Momonga is the last of the Forty-One Supreme Beings, and the only one that hadn't abandoned them yet, all of the NPCs in Nazarick continued to stay faithful to him, and their creators if they were ever to return. Typically, most of the NPCs in Nazarick would find their very task pleasing due to the presence of Ainz, being a Supreme Being, gave them an order to do som.
