Overlord Season 4 Episode 1 synopsis

Ainz is depressed to be surrounded only by loyal servants and misses his former guild members. Ainz establishes an orphanage in E-Rantel to identify talented individuals at a young age for the benefit of Nazarick. He also hires widows of the dead Re-Estize soldiers as workers to provide them with a living.

Albedo clashes with Mare over spending time with Ainz and making him consider sending Aura and Mare to the Dark elves to make friends. Albedo reveals that E-Rantel is suffering a lack of resources as merchants are too scared to visit now Ainz is king. Albedo gets permission to visit E-Rantel. As Pandora’s Actor still has an annoying personality Ainz suggests he would be proud if he grew beyond his original programming, though he asks this be kept secret in case the Floor Guardians think he is showing favoritism.

Pandora’s Actor reveals that while posing as Momon many humans have been asking him about Ainz. Ainz worries the Floor Guardians still see humans as lesser creatures. Ainz approaches Ainzach, Master of the local adventurer’s guild. Since Ainz’s Death Knights keep the peace a lot of the adventurers' security work has dried up, so he asks to absorb the guild into his kingdom and put the adventurers to work exploring unknown lands and establishing diplomatic ties with undiscovered kingdoms.

Ainz announces his plan now is to rule both human and non-human species in a kingdom where all can live together in peace.
