Storyline
After grinding away in his favorite MMORPG for over a decade, Momonga logs in one last time—except, surprise, he’s stuck in the game world for good. Now he’s rolling as the ridiculously overpowered Sorcerer King, Ains Ooal Gown. Things seem pretty chill until the Sacred Kingdom, once peaceful behind its gigantic wall, gets absolutely wrecked when a Demon Emperor named Jaldabaoth shows up with a nasty horde of demi-humans. Chaos everywhere. The neighboring Slane Theocracy freaks out, realizing they’re next on the chopping block, so they end up begging Ains for help, even though he’s technically their enemy. Ains, never one to turn down a dramatic entrance, brings his undead army and basically starts running the show. What follows is a wild alliance between the Sacred Kingdom, the undead forces of Ains, and the desperate Theocracy, all trying to smack down Jaldabaoth and his monsters before everything goes up in smoke. It’s politics, magic, betrayal, and a whole lot of overpowered flexing.
