Still, it makes more sense that she would have lost her initial levels by converting them to her new levels, since it is clear that she was leveling up by fighting (and commanding) before she died.

No matter how I look at it, resurrection should strip more recent levels rather than earlier ones, otherwise a flawless build would imply leveling up, then dying a bunch to remove your weaksauce lower levels, then releveling based on your high levels, rinsing and repeating. While that might indeed make an interesting mechanic, it clearly wasn't how Yggdrasil worked, or Ainz would never say anything about certain job classes requiring a certain level based on their prerequisites, because it would be easily possible to level up to be a ninja or whatever, then die to remove underpowered early levels, then rebuild as a caster or something, then die to lose the early levels with no "trump card" powers, etc.

Of course, maybe the New World does work this way and it will turn out that Ainz will learn to exploit the hell out of this to, for example, let Gondo become a level 11 Runesmith, or Roberdyke become a single-classed Evangelist (though it might be a problem if he's still a vegetable after all). Which also should imply that Neia can become a pure-classed Founder (what terrifies me is what that being a special class level that none of the Nazarick NPCs have might imply about her potential ability to eventually dictate to them the proper way to worship Ainz-sama).

Since crazy levels of OP is a major theme of Overlord, I can't say that would surprise me.
