Volume 1 Cover

Overlord (オーバーロード) is a Japanese light novel series written by Maruyama Kugane (丸山くがね) and illustrated by so-bin. The series is ongoing with 7 volumes.

Story Synopsis

Quote from Imoutolicious:

"A Japanese salary man stays logged in until the online service for the game ends, which results in the creation of a mega plot device similar to SAO and Log Horizon."

From 'anonymous' "What happens when you stay logged in a Dive Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (DMMORPG) when the server is going down, it means your life is meaningless. Live the life of boredom, he was given a chance to live a new world to explore."
