Overlord Season 3 Episode 13 Recap
Gazef invites Ainz to a duel with Climb and Brain as witnesses. Ainz asks Gazef if he is sure about his decision since it will ultimately lead to his death. Gazef says he is sure, and Ainz momentarily inspects his sword. Ainz points out that Gazef’s sword has the potential to hurt him. Before the duel begins, Ainz asks Climb to signal its start. Climb uses his magic handbell to do so, and Ainz uses time magic to kill Gazef quickly. Gazef collapses, and Ainz catches him, much to the surprise of Brain and Climb. Before Brain and Climb even figure out what happened, Ainz tells them that Gazef is already dead.
Ainz commends Gazef’s attitude and decides to stop the attacks with his dark goats. Shortly after, Ainz leaves the battlefield with a warning for the Kingdom. As long as they hand over E-Rantel in the next couple of days, the royal capital will be spared. Elsewhere, Jircniv learns about Ainz eliminating 70,000 men with one spell. Meanwhile, Climb and Brain mull over Gazef’s motives. Climb suggests that perhaps Gazef was giving them a chance to find out about Ainz’s abilities closely.
The King and Nobles have no choice but to hand over E-Rantel to Ainz. Eventually, Ainz arrives at E-Rantel with Albedo and a large army. During the procession, a child tries to hit Ainz with a rock. The mother pleads for mercy, but Albedo says any sign of disrespect towards Ainz should be punishable by death. Momon, Ainz’s other identity, interferes and saves the child. Momon then becomes the appointed city representative and law enforcer. It turns out Momon is simply part of a plan to keep the humans in control. Finally, Ainz declares the founding of the Sorcerous Kingdom.
