"Sage" huh... Although there's also a "boastful" part since he couldn't even explain why it was needed or how it was made. Sure, he sounds like a "sage" to people of the new world, but for anyone from the former world, he's just a fool parroting common knowledge that everyone knows and he can't even put it to proper use. So, he's just an everyday dude in reality, unremarkable.

Well, I guess the mc is the same, though he was a top player in a top guild and he's got the awesome race perks of high tier undead... The mc also have some kind of weird ability of actually not having remarkable intellect yet somehow his decisions turn out to be the correct ones, even if he didn't know beforehand. Plot armor and super smart underlings ftw. I wish Ainz would somehow turn into the real deal though and stop getting by with crazy luck and help from his subordinates. It gets on my nerves quite often when he starts panicking, talking about organizations and systems of employment and common sense from the other world, especially since he almost never has any clue what the fck he is saying or any proper plan, his "outer" self seems really cool, but his "inner self" is constantly whining. It's quite clear that the other guys in Nazarick is actually the real ones controlling what they do while Ainz is just going with the flow, never daring to say anything or thinking up a real plan.

Don't get me wrong, I love this novel even when he's like this, it's easily on my top 10 novels list. One of my absolute favorites. It's just that it'd get even more awesome if the author made him slightly more competent with more experience, we've seen enough of this "misunderstanding/overestimation" gag and toning that down and subsequently making him a bit more awesome would feel really fresh and enjoyable. No need to remove all of his foolishness, but just make him stop whining all the time and worrying about useless crap like salaries or how he doesn't know what the heck is happening.
