Talk:Overlord Volume 11/@comment-27227452-20160911111840/@comment-27008999-20160911160741

I believe, Maruyama stated in the past that it would be 18 volumes in total. But I really don't see that happening unless he plans on rushing the end. OVERLORD has spent so many volumes in a single country. There are many different things that can be explored in NW after all. As long as OVERLORD is popular he might continue making volumes.

What I'm curious about is how the Web Novel will end. Didn't Ainz become a noble in the empire? How is that story gonna progress? Does Ainz really have a grand motive in the WN?
