Trying to understand Season 4
Hello, Anime-only watcher here, i am currently a bit lost on what happened in season 4 that led to Ainz brutalizing an entire kingdom, so please correct me if i get anything wrong.
From what i gathered, Ainz found out how corrupt the kingdom of re-estize was, and in an attempt to increase his hold on the world, he triggers a food shortage on the kingdom to try and force some idiot noble (Philip) to start a revolution, then Ainz and his friends would intervene and bring peace.
HOWEVER, due to Philip's idiocy and immense ego, he attacks a disaster-relief caravan belonging to Nazarick so he could sell the grains for profit, this pissed off the guardians, who then convinced themselves that Ainz somehow foresaw whatever the hell Philip would do so they could declare war on the kingdom as payback and take it over as a power move on Nazarick's part.
They ended up killing many more people than they originally wanted due to Philip's ego.
Please feel free to correct me if i got anything wrong.
