Dam209
A forty-year-old man dies without fanfare and awakens in a world that should not exist-the world of Overlord. Unlike the legendary Players who arrived before him, he possesses no divine gifts, no game system, no hidden cheats, and no overwhelming powers waiting to awaken. He is not a ruler of Nazarick, nor a chosen hero destined to reshape the world.
He arrives with nothing but the memories of his previous life and the knowledge of a setting whose dangers are all too real.
In a world where monsters roam unchecked, nations wage secret wars, and beings capable of leveling cities walk among mortals, survival itself is a challenge. Every mistake can be fatal, and every victory must be earned through effort, cunning, and determination rather than supernatural advantages.
Forced to start from the very bottom, the former office worker must carve out a place for himself in a land where strength determines worth. Whether he rises to become a renowned adventurer, a revered saint, or simply another forgotten corpse on the roadside will depend entirely on his own choices.
After all, in the New World of Overlord, there are no second chances-except the one he has already been given.
