THIS IS A NOVEL ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS VOLUME.
----------------------------------------
Pretty much a side story volume, it definitely is a nice break before the sparks of war from the previous volume start flaming in the next. It's been some time since we last saw the villagers of Carne Village, and with the help of Nazarick, they are doing well. We finally get to see Lugisregina in action along with Nfirea and Enri's love blooming.

Once again, we see more of Ainz badassery effortlessly killing pretty much everyone in the forest. There were soothing slice of life elements though as one side story focuses on the homunculus maids Sixth, Fohail, and Lumiere. The intermission truly shows how much care the Supreme Beings put in creating and diversifying their servants, even if they are level 1 maids. Of course, let's not forget Albedo's rape attempt on Ainz and the bath scenes~

Enri growing into her role as the goblin overlord XD
This also ties in with the previously mentioned goblin king that beat countless dragons with a magic item.
Enri will be huge part of beating Ainz if he ever goes full evil.

Ogre's have a lot of variety :O
Wonder if Enri will add any to her army, and that potion talk of being able to kill Ainz in one blow :O
The naga has dark elf info :O where them white elves at thou?
But them being driven out means they are as a whole beneath a level 85 :( (well a HUGE one if that means anything)

Ainz doesn't really like Lucifer :O
That would be a good opponent for Ainz, but Lucifer will take a bunch of npc's thou :'(
Hope Albedo gets to him first.

Those homonculus maids :O I wonder if they will be important later on particularly the ones named :O

Ainz keeping Albedo horny :(
She needs that skeleton D but Ainz ain't budging.

Lupusregina Beta :'(
Such disappointment, good thing Ainz's carelessness was also to blame or she wouldn't have gotten off easy :(

WTF? Albedo brushing her teeth? :O
She must have been in her real form then and it's hairy, hence shalltear's gorilla taunts XD

We don't know, but it should be at around the halfway point at least.
I think he has enough material for around 30 volumes if he keeps going with his usual pacing but that's a stretch :P

advice: skip vol.8, and go to vol.9, then read again vol.8, because vol.10 is just a myth (i hate yen press).

This volume has been absolutely trash. A few parts here and there were good, but how frigging dare Ainz claim his NPCs are treasures, only to tell Lugusrigina to give up her life for cuck Nfirea. To lose a level 59 combat maid for a shitty Tier 1 spellcaster is absolutely retarded. I dont know what Ainz could be thinking here, Hes obviously lost his brain. Climb!b whos talentless has more worth than that cuck, and hes a princesses dog!!!!!. He gets what it means to protect someone and work hard to that goal while lacking the gifts. Nfrea just gets a free passt like his the author favorite protected with plot immunity. The guy should be mind raped like the wisdom princess before him. A bad ending like the rest of sword of darkness. It actually would be really amusing if the goblins were competing with each other to earn Enris affection. But nope, the retards are all playing match maker. Retarded and lame.

Anyway meeting Lupurigina was probably the highlight in the volume, probably meeting some of the maids and seeing virgin Abeldo attempt to rape Ainz was nice too.. But the rest has been appalling garbage. Its shitting on its own story.

Well that was my short version. Long time since i read garbage like this.

So you don't remember that Nfirea can use ANY artifact? You don't see how that kind of thing is more useful? Selective memory much?

This vol is quite literally a filler vol. It's not, and it definitely does have some important events to it, but aside from that, it's nothing much...

Still wondering if Albedo did proceed to rape Ainz further, how will she ride him when he can't even bone her with a real boner!

Vol 8 wasn't bad but if had been a fan of Overlord in 2015 patiently waiting for this volume to release, I would have been pissed off by how much filler is here.
