Overlord Season 4: When It Will Be Renewed?

By Jivika On Aug 31, 2022

Since King Ramposa III’s desperate request to Albedo, fans have been waiting for Season 4, Episode 9 of Overlord. As Ainz loses control of the situation, the anime plot significantly changes. He rarely had control over the guardians on his floors, and now it’s starting to show.

Ainz Ooal Gown is taking steps to make his country bigger. During this time, he has done everything he can to keep good relations with the nations around him. But a few people have decided to fight back because they feel threatened by the Overlord. Unfortunately, the Sorcerer Kingdom is much stronger than it should be.

Recap of Episode 8

In “An Unexpected Move,” the eighth episode of Overlord’s fourth season, several things happened. It explained the deal between the Sorcerer Kingdom and the Holy Kingdom, which was that the Sorcerer Kingdom would help the Holy Kingdom in humanitarian ways. The shipment was going to go through the Re-Estize Kingdom.

Phillip, the new Baron Montserrat, didn’t like this, though, because Albedo was controlling him. If the Sorcerer Kingdom helped the Holy Kingdom, the crops would not be sold, which would cause him and other nobles to lose a lot of money. Phillip and some other nobles decided to attack and steal from the convoy to stop this from happening. This happened in the Re-Estize Kingdom, which is sad.

When Albedo heard about this, she quickly caught Hilma, who was supposed to watch over Phillip. Albedo tried to punish her, but Ainz stood up for her by saying he was to blame for the whole thing. When Hilma saw how right Ainz was, she fell in love with him.

Later, Ainz and the Floor Guardians met privately to talk about how to move forward. Albedo explained the “carrot and stick” plan in this section. The Floor Guardians said they should be killed when asked what to do about the thieves. Ainz tried to keep there from being any bloodshed, but Demiurge thought that this was Ainz’s plan the whole time.

He said that Ainz had planned to make this a national issue by going to war with the Re-Estize Kingdom. So, Ainz couldn’t stop the chain of events that led the Sorcerer Kingdom and its allies to declare war on the Re-Estize Kingdom.

In the Re-Estize Kingdom, Prince Zanac and King Ramposa III tried to find answers. This was when Albedo came to the Kingdom, and this is when King Ramposa III came up with his plan. He gave his head to the Sorcerer Kingdom in exchange for the Re-Estize Kingdom being spared.

What to Expect

In Overlord season 4, episode 9, the Sorcerer Kingdom’s answer to what King Ramposa III asked for will be the main focus. The Sorcerer Kingdom’s plan to grow their country will continue in season 4 of Overlord, according to a preview that was made public.

The war with the Re-Estize Kingdom will happen, but no one should find out that Ainz planned it. Albedo, who was in charge of the nobles, and Demiurge, who controlled information, were to take care of this. The rest of the Floor Guardians were to destroy cities and towns one by one in the meantime.

So, the next episode of Overlord might be all about plans and strategies for war.

Will Overlord End After Season 4?

Overlord4 won’t be the last season of the anime show because we don’t know if the episodes will be longer or not. There are 16 books in the Overlord light novel series as of this writing. Ainz Ooal’s gown and the NPC guards on his floor are just the stars.

Final Thoughts

Episode 9 of Season 4 of Overlord is a must-see because it has a lot of plot points that will affect the rest of the season. Ainz found some people who could fight back against his army. This should make him happy. We can’t wait to see how he handles this problem.

If the Red Drop decides to show up again, more adamantite groups or adventurers may join Re-side Estes in the war. Along with this, there is also the possibility of another player stuck in the game, like Ainz.

But we won’t know what will happen until the next episode.
