An army of forty thousand relentlessly besieges the city, driven by a thirst for human blood, with no hope of reinforcements arriving. The Sacred Kingdom’s strongest paladin, Remedios, valiantly leads the defence but struggles against the overwhelming tide.

An army forty thousand strong is clamouring at the gates for human blood, and there is little hope of reinforcements. The Sacred Kingdom's strongest paladin, Remedios, leads the defence of the city, but even she cannot stem the tide on her own.

Despite the dire circumstances, the unimaginably powerful King of Darkness has refused to lend a hand for fear of depleting his magical energy right when he needs it to defeat Jaldabaoth once and for all. Time is running out for the defenders if they can't figure out a way to survive on their own...!

Overlord, Vol. 13 (light novel) immerses readers in a world fraught with tension and desperate battles, showcasing the power dynamics between light and dark through thrilling narrative and compelling characters.
