Ep. 2: Ainz reviews NPC plans while villagers face new threats from the East.

Ainz gathers NPCs to review the grand plan, though he primarily seeks to understand Demiurge’s thought process. Demiurge reveals that all NPCs are planning world domination, believing this aligns with Ainz’s hidden goals based on his actions, such as sparing Carne Village. Meanwhile, Nferia works on a potion for Ainz, and Enri cares for the Goblin Troop, which now protects the village. Brita has joined them as a new resident. When medicinal herbs run low, Enri, Nferia, and three Goblins search the forest. They discover a wounded Hobgoblin child named Agu being hunted by a Barghest. The group kills the beast to save him. Nferia uses an experimental Purple Potion to heal Agu, who explains he was attacked by minions of the Giant of the East, who has allied with the Demon Snake of the West, threatening the village’s safety.
