He is regarded as the highest of the Almighty Forty-One Supreme Beings by the NPCs of Nazarick. After making his debut in the New World he accepts an invitation to join the Baharuth Empire and becomes the newest Archduke.

Background
Out of the forty-one guild members of Ainz Ooal Gown, thirty-seven of his fellows had quit. Three still remained, but by the time of YGGDRASIL's shut-down Momonga could scarcely remember seeing them.

Overlord First Half Arc
On the last day of the game YGGDRASIL, only two members of Ainz Ooal Gown came to the Great Tomb of Nazarick: Momonga and Herohero. However the latter decides to leave as he has pressing real-life issue. Now alone, Momonga decides to wait until the very end in the Throne Room. The first thing he grabs is the symbol of hid guild, the Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown.

Momonga encounters the Non-Playable Characters, Sebas Tian and the combat maids, and has them follow him to the Throne Room. There he has them be on standby and sits on the throne. As the clock counts down, Momonga briefly closes his eyes. However when he reopens them he finds that the shut-down has already passed. But for some reason he is still in his game avatar and none of the game systems are working. Even stranger he is greeted by Sebas Tian.

Momonga was dumbfounded and his thoughts were in disarray, but he slowly returned back to reality. After confirming that the GM Call is not working Momonga realizes that the NPCs have gained self-awareness. He slightly recovers and orders Sebas Tian to investigate the outside of the dungeon. He then addresses to have all the Floor Guardians meet in the Amphitheater on the 6th Floor. He stops one maid from departing and he conducts an experiment to touch one of the maids, but soon realizes us lack of feeling and sees his skeletal hand. He orders the maid to raise her skirt, who though confused complies. Momonga just confirmed that he is not in YGGDRASIL, as the system would ban such behavior. He wonders if he is in YGGDRASIL II. However he sees that the maid has begun crying and quickly apologizes before dismissing her.

Once at the Amphitheater, Momonga meets the Floor Guardian, Aura Debay Fiora. Together with her he decides to run a few tests like summoning magic and summons three Moonlight Wolves. After finishing their experiments the two patiently wait for the other Floor Guardians.
