Ains Subjugates the Frost Dragons | Overlord IV 

Link does not work for me (404), have a paid account.

Hahaha, bookwyrm, that's a good one, I love it

I think he would’ve kept killing until they would cooperate. So at least 3 would’ve died (not hejinmarl, his dad, and the brother who spoke against ainz). More may have died but with how quickly the others submitted after daddy died makes me think they’re smart enough to not antagonize him.

Bookwyrm! 😁 You win the internet for today

@@morebrainmoregains3234 He's a false Dragon Lord. Only the ones who were alive 600+ years ago are True Dragon Lords.

Even the mother who hated being order around was so obedient to Ainz. At least she was smart enough to not be to prideful. 😂🤣

I thought in the lightnovel that was just dialogue in his head. Guess the anime changed it? Will need confirmation

I assume that like in many Kingdoms there would be concubines.

Also when Hejinmal wets himself in fear right after he meets Ains, Ains mistakes it as his way of marking his territory. 🤣😂😆

In LN the three wives look at hejinmal with hope of survive, hejinmal is the one who says 'i have three mothers!", then ainz come to that line trying to figure what hejinmal means with three mothers

He probably knew about Dragon traditions and the like. Or he just knows the lore about the world he's living in before he was forced into it.

he *lawful* evil

That is something that is mentioned in the novel once, as the terrifying thing about Ainz is that he can punish someone horribly or reward them in an incredible way, that contrast has many in the New World terrified.

@@diostaku2 and sometimes both, as the Eight Fingers syndicate found out.

Ainz is a puzzler. He has zero value for life (and this is mostly a side-affect of being a lich), but he does not commit intentional cruelties himself. And if he establishes a personal relationship with you, he will treat you well and loyally. Although sometimes he is just clueless, like when he doesn’t realize that the “Abelion sheep skin” that Demiurge uses to make magic scrolls is actually flayed human skin from a prison farm Demiurge established. I am still not sure how much Ainz knows about what goes on in the depths of Nazarick. But even if he’s not cruel, Ainz will still casually commit genocide. So… yeah, he’s definitely evil.

As it should be

My headcannon is that by not training his body and dedicating himself to reading and gaining knowledge, he ended up increasing his intelligence stat, which allowed him to perceive the obvious danger that was approaching.

Hejinmal is the reason the whole dragon family was not slain. He bowing before Ains shown its power saved then from being used as loot.

Actually one has to work against common sense to come to the conclusions he did. Common sense dictates that as a dragon he should have an easy time destroying a lowly skeleton, dwarf, and elves; that these enemies are so trivial that even his father who doesn't think much of him can dispose of them easily. His brains did let him figure out quickly that if they aren't afraid of dragons, and if the skeleton is decked out in extremely valuable gear, that it was actually his life that was in grave danger and not the other way around.

@@rahn45 Indeed. Common sense for other creatures, but not among dragons. Like how it is common sense among trolls to see those who bear long names as cowardly. The Warrior King notes himself as an exception to this in his exchange with Ainz.

I wouldnt blame anyone for acting hostile, u walk into someones house and expect u to bow to them, no way jose

In a sense, knowledge too can be a treasure, so, not so odd...

Basically the opposite of the Quagoa leader who needed to be shown instead of reading between the lines. He instead got his 60k population cut down to 10k.

Mothers*

@@mysteriousstranger5100 Riyuro was kind of in a bad situation, no matter what. In comparison to all the other races that live in that mountain, the Quagoa were the most unimpressive. Sure, they are more powerful than the dwarves, but the dwarves have more potential to be useful.

@@SnowyWolborg Riyuro literally got out of that situation by the skin of their teeths: they were forced to cull themselves at the cost of psychologically scarring him into full submission to Nazarick.

They might all actually be his mother who knows. But yeah they probably just wanted to escape Ainz grabbing a ghostly form of their heart in his hand and crushing it.

Especially after watching daddy dearest get 1-tapped lol

@@brother_sothoth nah, hejinmal went along with it in the light novels. He decided to claim that he had 3 mothers in order to spare their lives

Yeah he mulled it over & thought he's going to have them do a lot of Favors for him in return lol. He is a very practical nerd.

@@brother_sothoth it's noted that he lied to cover for the females

Last time someone called him "Skeleton" it was a War Troll so not a very smart species indeed

I have a question. What was Ainz's starting rank? I know he's an Overlord, a step above Elder Lich.

​@@factfiend1000 pretty sure he started off as a low tier undead like a skeleton probably.

@@zolasamarita Thank you.

Yeah his heart was cryshed

Yall i need my coffee before you can be this funny 😂

So the frost dragons will be among us?

Ainz really wanted to touch even more hearts.

@@ReinaHamazaki as part of the new Flat chest Airlines...

He really became one of the boys

Yeah lol he’s so cute hiding behind and holding onto Ain’s cape

i love how when all the dragons left he was standing on the corps of the dragon lord

He's like "I'm a tall boy now!"

I personally like the change, I mean I find it quite too much for the Dragon that just swore fealty to now ask for favors. Super rude IMO, Gondo saying it is supported by his filial nature and wants Hejinmal to have one of his parent spared. Plus Gondo is respected enough by Ains to request that of him.

Technically he’s Aura’s pet, found a loophole 😜

It's aura's pet

What about Albedo? Albedo: First the hamster, now the dragon? WHEN DO I GET TO RIDE AINZ?!

@@Abdega technically Ainz rode them which i think would make Albedo more jealous 😏

Technically Hamsuke is Momons pet 🤫

Yeah

that's a thing? intelligence is quantifiable? is there something like a lock where even if you read books you wont' learn anything unless you are a certain level? or maybe you straight up can't read until you reach a certain level?

@@asianpersuasion4901 It's just my headcanon, which is logical if we think about it carefully, he was the only dragon that didn't train his body like the rest and instead dedicated himself to reading books and expanding his knowledge. He barely saw Ainz and immediately understood that he had no chance, which none of the other dragons understood until Ainz demonstrated his power. That sounds to me like a high stat related to intelligence.

@@asianpersuasion4901 He seemed to be the only one who could recognize an elder lich on sight, presumably from his studies.

@@diostaku2 Idk, I feel like that's just observance of behavior and stuff. And maybe Ainz was flexing his aura. the more intricate details are skipped by the anime so I wouldn't know.

Yeah, I was expecting that too.

@@BerserkDoomer Same.

Agreed. that was basically the trigger for him to attack.

I mean, he gave him one chance.

He gave him a chance. The Frost Dragon Lord didn’t take it so now he’s dead.

@@acgearsandarms1343 Exactly. He didn't attack anyone who listened. He was _gonna_ OHKO Hejinmal, until he chose to submit. And as soon as the concubines did the same, he left them alone. White Dragon Lord and one of his sons were the only ones dumb enough to not recognize they were outmatched.

You're almost right. One of them was indeed his mother, but all of them treated him very poorly. Out of compassion, he said what would spare them all, even if they were all horrible parents to him.

@@Kuwagumo but thats kinda how dragons work, even if these were somewhat of a family, it was for pure convinience, dragons are solitary, White Dragon lord was an anonaly amoung dragons, because he held together a family, but the dragon instincts still dominate and they threat the weakers baddly

The one who calls him "my oldest" earlier in the episode is his mother. Dragons don't really have much in the ways of familial bonds. That's also why when Gondo asked if one of the dragons in there was his mother, Hejinmal answered with a confused "yeah" like he didn't know why that would matter. He only agreed with Ains because the 3 mother dragons would owe him their lives.

wow 70%? why not 71 or 58?

@@lunardeathblade2570 if i remember well in the novel hajimal was the one who asked to spare his mother instead of the dwarf

damn, looking in retrospective that was insanely overkill for such a small fry

@@johon127 It was his first fight in the new world. If the move didn't work he was going to retreat.

@@SuperFang1 Ye, I remember, I mean the move itself was way more broken than I had thought

After I saw the Dragon Lord go down so easily, I thought to myself, why didn’t that soldier’s body completely and utterly explode? 😂

Now here's the question... "Is the soldier awesome for being killed by the same spell that killed a dragon?" or "Is the dragon lame for being killed by the same spell that killed a rank-and-file soldier?"

@gokuandmario4ever to be fair his father was planning on kicking him out by the end of the month.

@@chongwillson972 Still, though.

@@gokuandmario4ever bruh same, that’s my reaction to his comment “still though” 🤣

@@Not_obligated2care😆

Nope that's something else entirely, looks like you lost the plot still eh.

It's pretty common for kings to have concubines. Hence, multiple mothers.

I think he really didn't know and believed him that he had 3 mothers

@@Lowdian well its hard to tell, no can really fathom Ainz superior intelligence. If Demiurge can't i don't this any of us can

Not even Legendary Actions could save a broken heart, my man

Well dragons Do this and its normal because dragons are like Lions

Everyone learned that day to never succumb to pride.

Can't wait to listen to volume 11 on audible 😁

True when only one of them is the actual mom. I agree with others people who said that he only went along with it and claimed he had 3 mothers not just to have the other 2 (who aren't his mom) be spared but to have them owe him lol

I recommend The Misfit of the Demon King Academy. The MC is comedically overpowered but he genuinely cares for people who are loyal to him

@@HM4Hill Appreciate you, I'll it out right now

Saga of Tanya the Evil is pretty good if your looking for an isekai by the same group

@@HM4Hill Been watching it throughout the day and it's really good. Thank you!

@@neoshrimp5409 Thanks, I'll check it out!

@Batkowsky dosent GATE have dragons like die to rather easily to modern military?

​​@@chongwillson972 took two planes to down a couple of newborns. One of the big boys tanked an rpg on the face, only to be murked later by c4 explosion bringing down the house on it. Not exactly "easy" but was done quickly.

It is a nice little touch, I don't remember reading that in the LN.

No, it was Ains. However, the dragon was the only who asked his mother to be spared, not the dwarf.

Concubines? Hence multiple mothers?

Looks weak.....not to mention their way lower than him anyways.

Hmmm Depends on how it works on dragons

They fear him, but they follow the law of the jungle. To them, the strong is in the right. On the good side, they will have a better life in the Sorcerer Kingdom.

Not remember. These dragons were mentioned in s1, in s2 there was another.

Not the same dragons.

He literally saw the chance and took it, literally tooking the high ground there lol

@AsianPersuasion these were ice dragons , the weakest types of dragons.

@@chongwillson972 I guess it's going to take a while till platinum dragon lord and others

I’ve considered them villains since season 1 lol

You're probably the kind of person that watched Joaquin Phoenix's Joker and thought of him as a hero

@@tomasliu7631 tbh I still haven’t seen the movie yet😂 I really should tho

I feel like we are suppose to see them in a more neutral stance. If Ainz can progress his plots by doing good deeds he will but if the quicker more efficient way is for him to be more ruthless he will do so.

They are Anti hero's Almost like deadpool Once it benefits them they do it and chooses no sides

Many, but they ignored it. 😂

Ains Ooal Gown is an anagram of Nine's Own Goal. There is no Z there. What you're talking about is some Arucard nonsense.

In the alternate timeline yes he fought seriously. In the original not.

No. He's the sort that likes to gather information on his opponents first, so anything deemed to be an actual threat is studied and fought through proxies in order to gauge the other party's abilities.

Author already said even if the entire world teamed up they wouldn't even make it to the 3rd floor in Nazarick.

@@tyler-hp7oq oh I see. Meh, I was hoping to watch a serious fight against a real and powerful enemy, guess won't be happening.....not anytime soon

The idea is more or less like One-Punch Man, we don't want any serious fights to happen. The key is that how an average office worker deals with near infinite power. If you want to watch a good fight between two powerful characters you can find a thousand in Anime world.

he's a big nerd

@James he loves reading and learning rather than fighting , and is rather soft and timid person...
