“Taking over the world... it could be fun.”
The man later known as Ainz Ooal Gown never thought he would find himself speaking the above words even half-seriously. But then again, he never expected himself to be trapped in the body of an undead overlord.
When Ainz was known as Suzuki Satoru, he was no different than any other salaryman. Loyal to his company, but not particularly passionate about his work, Satoru’s life revolved around the evenings when he could slip away into the virtual world of his favorite MMORPG, where he earned the guildmaster title of a certain guild. The title did little to change Satoru’s personality and relationship with his virtual world comrades. Satoru would rarely issue orders and would often handle the most tiresome tasks, like grinding low-level monsters alone to collect the gold necessary for the guild’s upkeep.
While Satoru’s devotion to the guild and his companions remained unshaken, no online game can last forever. As the popularity of the MMORPG slowly waned and many guild members became too busy with personal affairs to log in, Satoru found himself increasingly lonely in the virtual world. He was filled with conflicting emotions, irritated at those leaving him behind, but only because of how much he cherished the time they had spent together.
When the curtain finally draws to a close on the virtual world, Satoru expects to find himself all alone. What he does not expect is to find himself unable to log out of the game. When he finds the surrounding non-player characters coming to life and his own sensations replaced by those more befitting the skeletal overlord character he played in the game, Satoru knows he got himself in deep trouble.
But for Satoru, losing all of his past life might be the opportunity for a new beginning. He takes the name of his guild – Ainz Ooal Gown – for his own and sets out to make the name famous throughout the lands. On the one hand, he is desperately searching for his guild members or former players. On the other hand, he takes responsibility for the NPCs in his guild and, for the first time, becomes a true and proud guildmaster.
The immediate goal of Ainz Ooal Gown is to learn as much about the surrounding world as possible. But unexpectedly, he may also learn things about himself he never knew before.
