Ainz controls the western continent under the banner of the sorcerer Empire. He discovers new lands to the east so he sends his three strongest to investigate.

The tale of a master smith of Yggdrasil dragged into a world that he does not understand. And so he retreats into his character until Blue Rose comes knocking down his door.

After 12 long years, the servers hosting the hugely immersive DMMORPG Yggdrasil are shutdown. But while most of the players decided to logoff at the end of the festivities, a lone one stayed until the last moment. That decision inevitably altered his fate, as his character was transferred in an alternate world. Volume 2 finished.
