In Episode 12 of Overlord Season 2, Momon (Ainz) is drawn into a staged battle with Demiurge, who takes on the form of Jaldabaoth. This spectacle is part of a larger plan orchestrated by Nazarick. During the confrontation, Evileye falls for Momon, impressed by his strength, which surpasses her own. However, she is somewhat disappointed by the way Momon carries her during their escape, treating her more like an object than a person.

Meanwhile, Climb and his companions encounter Succulent, who had disguised himself as Tuare. The fight exposes Succulent's deception, and Climb learns the importance of fighting dirty in desperate situations. He applies this newfound method by striking Succulent in a vulnerable spot to gain the upper hand.

The narrative shifts to Brain's encounter with Zero, the last of the Six Arms. The battle is abruptly cut short when Sebas appears with the real Tuare. Sebas effortlessly defeats Zero with a single powerful kick, showcasing his overwhelming strength, but laments the bloodstain on his clothes—a minor yet telling detail about his character.

As the episode progresses, Demiurge's plan unfolds further as he erects a wall of fire in the capital. This act of terror, carried out under his alias, raises questions about its ultimate purpose and alignment with Nazarick's goals.

Momon joins forces with Evileye, Blue Rose, Brain, Climb, and other adventurers, all under the command of Princess Renner. Renner orchestrates the battle strategy against the demonic threat within the wall of fire, demonstrating her leadership and tactical acumen.

In an revealing moment, Renner unveils her true, sinister intentions to her brother and the Marquis. Her plan hinges on Climb's potential death in battle and subsequent resurrection by Lakyus, which would leave him physically weakened and dependent. Renner's disturbing delight at this prospect highlights her manipulative and dark nature, as she prepares to provide Climb with the care he would need.
