Overlord Summary

Yggdrasil is a virtual reality game known for the freedom it offers its players. After a simple tutorial, players can explore the world and customize everything from their classes to their weapons. However, in the year 2138, the game sees its final hours when its servers go down at midnight. Momonga, a devoted Yggdrasil player, decides to spend the final hours of the game in his guild, Ainz Ooal Gown. Interestingly, the game doesn't disconnect it at midnight. Instead, Momonga finds himself transported to another world, one seemingly identical to Yggdrasil's. Faced with an already abnormal situation, he discovers that the NPCs have gained consciousness. Trapped in his avatar's skeletal body and desperate to find the cause of his predicament and other players like him, Momonga sets out to take control of the new world with the help of his loyal subjects.
