Overlord II Episode 13

"The Ultimate Trump Card" (最強最高の切り札 Saikyō Saikō no Kirifuda) is the thirteenth and final episode of the Overlord II adaptation. It was broadcasted on April 3, 2018.

Summary
As Zanac rallies the citizens, the Adventurer Coalition moves in to rescue captured civilians in the residential sector, while the royal guards hold back a wave of demons- until Momon is dropped in by Nabe & Evileye to be rid of the monsters. Momon urges the guards to move to protect the Re-Estize citizens who are vulnerable.

Brain, Climb & Lockmyer use the battle with of the Adventurers vs Demons to investigate the warehouse area for captured civilians, but Brain spots a disguised Shalltear and goes to battle her so as to give his comrades time free of interference from the monster. Upon encountering the young vampire, Shalltear can't remember him due to her resurrection; but Brain takes it as she can't remember him since she views him as insignificant. Brain repeats his Field martial art, and Shalltear repeats walking into it, but this time Brain's new mentality from Sebas allows him to cut her fingernail. While Shalltear is mildly impressed, Brain is overjoyed at realizing he has reached a new level of strength from having his friends in his heart. He then runs, but Shalltear notices Climb & Lockmeyer, remembering the "Do Not Harm" order Demiurge gave her. So she let's them flee; Brain tells them while hiding Shalltear can match Sebas in strength, and he successfully cut her fingernail. While Brain knows the meaning of this, Climb & Lockmeyer hesitantly congratulate him. They use this chance to continue running.

As Momon, Nabe, and Evileye reach Jaldabaoth, they see his five Masked Demon Maids. While the ladies handle the Maids, Momon battles Demi- the demon. Evileye fights Alpha & Delta, while Nabe fights Beta, Epsilon & Zeta. As Evileye fights Alpha & Delta, Alpha is resistant to her Shard Buckshot and continuously using Orb Shielding to protect herself from Delta's long range rifle fire. Deploying a mini sandstorm, Evileye is surprised the Demon Maids know how to team up & reinforce each other. Alpha, unfazed by the sand, finds & attacks Evileye, cracking her mask. Evileye, seeing the two maids she fights are resistant to all her stun attacks, gets airborne to rethink her strategy. Lakyus fights off wave after wave of Demon hordes while support mages heal wounded Adventurers, but Gazef arrives with the King's personal army to venture in and personally help his subjects. Gagran & Tia, despite level loss, want to fight to regain their experience and protect those around them. As Brain, Climb & Lockmeyer find a warehouse of civilians, the people plead for their taken loved ones; confirming the Princess' theory of separating families.

Elsewhere, Demiurge & Ainz speak in private in an abandoned building to discuss Demiurge's Four Part Plan. Ainz pretends he only saw three parts (as Momonga was completely in the dark of it all); Demiurge elaborates in full. First Part- covertly steel all loose & raw materials from Re-Estize without detection to cover for supplies Momon couldn't attain. Second- to mask their retaliation against Eight Fingers, and to place an item of great power with Eight Fingers so evidence would point to them summoning Jaldabaoth; the Armageddon Evil Statue created by Demiurge's creator. Instead of leaving such a great item, Ainz bestows onto a grateful Demiurge the prototype of the statue for the plan. They will use the narrative thus created by the first two steps to hide their involvement. Third- to take their captured humans from within the capital back to Nazarick for experimentation and other uses; Ainz, while uncaring to humans, orders Demiurge to grant those who show Nazarick & himself the due respect a merciful end. Lastly- to place all blame on 'Jaldabaoth' so as to also boost the name of Adventurer Momon.

As Evileye fights on, Naberal is actually talking with her sisters. Beta, impressed by her holding up, wants to know her name but Naberal didn't bother to remember. Epsilon recalls her name from the report by Sebas when he was in Re-Estize. Narberal asks if they actively recall names: Solution does so out of remembering specific screams & out of need for her espionage skills; Beta 'gets along well ' with the folks in Carne Village, and Entoma doesn't see it as an issue. Narberal is surprised, but when Mare gives the Earthquake signal, the maids get back to the act and have to injure 'Nabe' to sell the story of the disturbance; apologizing in advance. Evilieye regroups with Nabe, and 'Jaldabaoth' is thrust into the scene. Momon, now finally getting to fight seriously, battles the Demon Emperor. While airborne, Momon uses a Fire Item, to no avail, and attacks right at the Demon; but his right hand blade is destroyed by Hell Flames. Seeing a chance to use a new weapon, Momon deploys his Frost Pain Modified and nullifies Jaldabaoth's Hell Flames. Jaldabaoth calls for a retreat and wishes to end their battle; Evileye is against it, but Momon agrees. Jaldabaoth insults her intelligence, and elaborates that he has forces to take the whole capital if he can't leave, so his retreat saves lives and he may also be allowed to leave. The Demon takes his leave, and with that, the disturbance comes to an end.

Overjoyed, Evileye jumps & hugs Momon for defeating & repelling Jaldabaoth. The Adventurers gather where Momon is and hale him a hero of the Kingdom. The next day, Momon & Nabe depart for E-Rantel, with Marquis Raeven thanking them for their service. As they leave, Evileye is sad that he must go. Elsewhere, Aura decrees that the remaining Eight Fingers operatives are now servants to Ainz Ooal Gown. While some are resistent, Hilma urges the Dark Elf Twins let her mull them over to make them loyal- out of fear of not wanting to return to torture by Kyouhukou; Aura allows it, affirming they now own half the country. In the palace, Climb relays to Renner that those rescued thank her, and when she wishes to see those people, Climb declines for a reason, but stops when he notices a moment of change in Renner; the Princess accepts this and moves on. At night, Blue Rose & Brain are having a meal together, while Evileye's friends recount how Rigrit humiliated her in combat to make her join. Gagaran then remembers that Evileye can teleport, and if she had gone with Momon in the morning to E-Rantel, she could have established a fast travel point and visited him as she pleased. Evileye realizes this... and freaks out

Back in Nazarick, Pestonya introduces Tsuare to the Homunculus Maids as a new recruit. Sebas reminds Pestonya to have Tsuare's training be accommodating to her human status; Pestonya acknowledges, stating her maid status is temporary until she marries Sebas. Much to the butler's blushing discomfort. Ainz returns to his throne. Meanwhile, in the Baharuth Empire, Fluder Paradyne informs Emperor Jircniv Rune Farlord El Nix that, on his investigation into Ainz Ooal Gown, he concludes the magic caster is greater than or equal to his level of magical power. While wishing to meet Ainz personally, Fluder is also ordered by the Emperor to investigate Adamantite Adventurer Momon.
