Plot
The first 3 seasons of the anime have covered most of the volumes of the novel it is based on, except a few. Season 4 will most probably follow the 10th,11th, and 12th volumes!
“The Ruler of Conspiracy” (the 10th volume) focuses on Ainz, who one day decides to transform his kingdom into heaven for everyone. But he faces many difficulties in trying to fulfill this task.
“The Craftsman of Dwarf” (the 11th volume) shows Ainz visiting the Dwarf kingdom with Shalltear and Aura Bella. But Ainz has a purpose for this visit. He wants to find the “Lost run magic.” But upon his arrival, he realizes that the place is under attack.
“The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom” (the 12th volume) features the attack of Demiurge (the Demon Emperor). The story of 4th season will be one of these three!
