[Last day of Yggdrasil]

In the grand and spacious throne room, an obsidian throne radiated a mesmerizing glow, as various rare gems embedded in it shimmered like a rainbow. Yet, paradoxically, the throne seemed to absorb the surrounding light, creating an aura of darkness. Seated upon this majestic seat was none other than Momonga, the Overlord who ruled over the four realms. The throne itself bore the name [Throne of Life after Death] a world-class item surpassing even the renowned [Throne of the Kings.] It possessed enhanced buffs and granted Momonga greater control over his domains.

The expanse of the throne room was vast, with a wide dark violet carpet adorning the entrance, its edges embellished with a vibrant shade of red. Flanking the room on either side stood majestic columns, crafted from pure gold and infused with a variety of precious ores, their surfaces adorned with delicate white stripes. Above, the ceiling boasted a row of magnificent chandeliers, each adorned with an assortment of radiant gemstones, casting a captivating glow that illuminated the entire space, adding an extra touch of splendor to the scene.

Momonga found himself captivated by his creation, the realization that with sufficient resources, the impossible could indeed be achieved.

Casting his gaze upon the one thousand NPC inhabitants assembled in the room, they formed four rows on either side of the throne room. These loyal servants consisted of level 100 Overlord Seraphs and level 100 Overlord Succubi, who faithfully executed Momonga's every command and prioritized his well-being above all else. They were his most trusted protectors, unwavering in their loyalty, ensuring the security of Ainz Ooal Gown's existence within the tower.

[Flashback]

Five years had passed since the departure of Ainz Ooal Gown's guild members, leaving Momonga as the sole remaining member. Over time, he had grown increasingly bored, his days consisting of aimlessly traversing each floor of the guild headquarters, checking on the well-being of the NPC inhabitants. However, his monotonous routine was abruptly interrupted when a notification flashed on his screen, announcing an upcoming tournament set to take place in just five days.

"A tournament? But all the top players have long abandoned Yggdrasil due to its numerous bugs," Momonga pondered aloud. "That's why I still hold a top-five position on the leaderboard."

Indeed, Yggdrasil had become plagued with glitches and technical issues two months prior, leading to widespread dissatisfaction among its player base. Frustrated by the lack of communication from the developers, many top-tier players had abandoned the game in favor of other DMMO-RPG games. After some consideration, Momonga decided to participate in the tournament, his sole motivation being the desperate need to alleviate his overwhelming boredom.

Joining the tournament alongside one hundred other players, Momonga brought with him all of the remaining world items in his possession, excluding the one-time-use items. With this arsenal at his disposal, he ensured an advantageous position, greatly increasing his chances of emerging victorious. His strategic decision proved fruitful as he achieved consecutive wins in the tournament, further bolstered by the acquisition of three additional world items either through his victories or by seizing them from defeated opponents.
