Amen brother, their current state is like citizens of some hapless poor country taking up arms against Kaido. And the survivors were practically traumatized to the point of no recovery, otherwise how do you explain that many orphans in the new orphanage.

It is possible to conscript and build a new army, but at this point, there's no point in doing so. The surviving nobles that returned to the capital safely are painfully aware of this problem, and they also know, just re-conscripting people, building a new army and sending them to wage war against Ainz is practically suicide, and having thoughts about it is nothing short of madness. And summoning goats or not, when you get the news from survivors and refugees of war that a 240,000 + strong army with the very best warriors the Kingdom had to offer as well as the King's very own Champion got butchered wholesale with just a single spell, you can't underestimate your enemy anymore. Then again, this IS Overlord, and this is the Re-Estize Kingdom we're talking about, so who knows what's gonna happen.

Painfully obvious, acquiring new, populated landmass means a lot of head-aches, paperwork, bureaucratic affairs and whatnot. The famine problem is solvable. Why? Because this is war, and one of the positive evil aspects of war is that lots of people will be dead, lots of mouths to feed reduced, thus food & resource problems solved. And in case of dire emergencies, Nazarick has adequate reserves to tackle these problems until it is resolved. There WILL be a purge, and the rivers and lakes of Re-Estize will rum red with the blood of Nobles. Well, all the useless people along with the useless, rebellous nobles. The Sorcerous Kingdom (Nazarick) doesn't work like a human body, it's practically like an industrial machine, it sees defective parts that may cause hindrance in production and development, it'll simply get rid of it and replace it with new, compatible, workable parts (in this case, worthy & capable individuals, not any Phillip). Please note the keyword: Purge. The nobles will be purged (with their families, I mean what kind of idiot lets the offspring of the purged family live?), all the assets and estates owned by said nobles automatically will become Government property, I highly doubt the Government teasury will remain empty anymore. Nazarick is practically nationalizing the Adventurer's Guild and even sponsoring them on behalf, preparing to provide gears & training facilities for the growth of the Adventurer system, what else do you need to pacify them with? Same goes for the Wizard's Guild although the one got disbanded in E-Rantel. And Nazarick is practically attempting to build another UMBRELLA CORPORATION with the Pharmacists, the Barrear family is just the start. And the stuff that Nazarick is willing to provide under certain T & C's, Pharmacists will be begging to be Ainz's slave. Which leaves the one and only problem in the country: the Churches. Well, to be honest, so far, Ainz has no intentions on interrupting his citizen's religious beliefs. And even the Churches in the neighboring regions save the Theocracy have unanimously agreed not to wage any kind of religious warfare against Sorcerous Kingdom, so unless they have any intentions of sparking WW3, they wouldn't do anything that stupid.

Renner was already promised a promotion to a rank comparable to an Area Guardian & extra benefits for assisting Nazarick in conquering the Kingdom. For that she'll get adequate Desk officers and capable individuals sponsored by yours truly (Again). And again, WAR. PURGE. What is wrong with you? There won't be 9 million anymore, with the war and the purge, the population will easily dwindle down to somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 - 4 Million tops. As far as undead goes, war provides with a very juicy bounty of corpses thus lots of undead to use, and the best part of these undead are that they're permanent, and they have [Gate] to transport them plus there are like limitless number of POP's in Nazarick ready to deploy (lvl 30 and less is still a force to be reckoned with in the New World). Jircniv already has enough headaches to deal with, no need for extras and What do you think they (8 fingers) have been doing since the hostile takeover of the Management in Volume 6, sightseeing?

The Kingdom is already at the breaking point, all it needs is someone to light the fuse and let all of Hell break loose. You think the citizens will keep quiet at this point? They're currently suffering from Poverty, people don't have decent jobs anymore, they're constantly getting thrashed by getting caught in the middle of Kingdom politics, they're starving to death with every passing day, and now they're also having to pay for the mistakes the nobles and the royal family are making. A Civil War is inevitable, and this declaration of war is the spark. The whole country will turn on itself at the ending days of the war. One, what kind of idiot let's the vanquished royalty live? Two, why do you think Renner exists and got promised so much? And to be clear with everyone, there is NO PRE-SET Hero or Villain in this bloody series and who's the hero, who's the villain depends entirely on the reader's sense of Morality, Logic & imagination, so stop worrying on whether or not he's a good guy or a bad guy. And as far as using that bloody statue goes, One, Nazarick has the upgraded version of the prototype, Two, Demiurge and his Evil lords all have the summoning skills to call forth Demons, Three, there's no need to hide anything anymore when you're at war. The Kingdom already gave Nazarick a Casus Belli to declare war on them, so why bother hiding that Nazarick will kill a whole lot of people important to the Kingdom?
