In "Overlord IV" Episode 8, the story returns to the Re-Estize Kingdom and focuses on the kingdom's response to the growing influence of the Sorcerer Kingdom.

The episode begins with Prince Zanac and Princess Renner, the royal siblings of the Re-Estize Kingdom, discussing their strategy for dealing with the Sorcerer Kingdom. Renner suggests that Zanac should be crowned king as soon as possible and also proposes the idea that the Re-Estize Kingdom should become a vassal state of the Sorcerer Kingdom, similar to the Empire's status.

Meanwhile, Baron Phillip Montserrat, despite previous friendly relations with Albedo, becomes envious of the Sorcerer Kingdom's success in agricultural exports and suggests taking action against them.

Then, Albedo receives news of an attack on a Sorcerer Kingdom trade convoy. Ainz Ooal Gown subsequently convenes a meeting with his Floor Guardians in Nazarick. During this meeting, Hilma Cygnaeus is summoned and interrogated by Ainz. Through mind control, Ainz concludes that Hilma is not directly responsible for the attack but learns of Phillip Montserrat's involvement.

In the ensuing discussion, Albedo, Demiurge, and the other Guardians express their viewpoints, leading to the consensus that the Re-Estize Kingdom must face severe consequences for the attack on the convoy.

The episode then shows Albedo arriving in the Re-Estize Kingdom to meet King Ramposa III, Zanac, and Renner. King Ramposa, sensing the reason for Albedo's visit, surprises everyone by offering his own life instead of handing over Phillip Montserrat, as Albedo and the others had expected. However, this situation does not change Albedo's words, as she declares war on the Re-Estize Kingdom in the name of the Sorcerer Kingdom.
