We don't get the full scene with Lupu and Enri, but I suspect (from Lupu's nonchalance) that she's applying the "just kidding, this is only a drill" attitude that Ainz directly recommended for Nazarick residents (apparently applying to Carne Village).

Going so far as to spread this information to the surrounding nations seems to have been part of the latitude that was extended to Albedo and Demiurge on how to carry out the details. While everyone that has direct experience of Nazarick seems to realize that this can only be a deception, there are plenty of people getting the news who don't have a reliable experience to say with certainty that it is impossible...though probably Philip is an outlier.

Of course, the rebound effect of being able to say "Oh, he didn't STAY dead, obviously" will have some utility. It does help throw cold water on the hopes of anyone planning an assassination.
