"Overlord IV" Episode 9 continues the storyline surrounding the conflict between the Sorcerer Kingdom and the Re-Estize Kingdom, introducing new characters and events.
The episode begins with Albedo, the Overseer of the Floor Guardians in Nazarick, announcing the Sorcerer Kingdom's declaration of war against the Re-Estize Kingdom. Ainz promises not to use large-scale spells, as he did in the Katze Plains, which caused massive devastation.
One month after the war begins, Ainz devises a strategy for a swift invasion, targeting villages near the border to prevent outside interference. Despite his power, Ainz holds back his attacks, allowing some people to survive and flee, influenced by his human empathy and respect for others' opinions, such as Albedo's sister Nigredo and Pestonya.
The focus shifts to E-Naeul, a coastal city under attack by the Sorcerer Kingdom. The city hires the Mithril-ranked adventurer group Four Armaments for defense. The group consists of a leader, a cool beauty, a slightly perverted mage, and other members distinguished by their professionalism and banter.
The main assault on E-Naeul is led by zombie troops and two massive Death Knights. The onna kishi, a knight of the Four Armaments, battles one of the Death Knights. Despite her skill and agility, she struggles to deal significant damage to the Death Knight.
As the fight intensifies with the arrival of a Death Warrior wielding two weapons, the situation looks dire for the adventurers. Unexpectedly, however, a figure clad in a red high-tech metal mech suit appears in the sky, armed with a machine gun. This figure successfully defeats the Death Knights, turning the tide in favor of the Four Armaments and the city's forces.
After the defeat of the Death Knights, speculation arises about the identity of the figure in red, who is recognized as an adamantite-ranked adventurer. The episode ends with Ainz stating that he expected this outcome (which, of course, is not true).
