Exactly, even if Renner was to "see through Ainz's facade", she would probably thik that he's just acting dumb like what she usually does. My reason for thinking that? It's simple. When evaluating someone, you shouldn't just base yourself on first impression and/or on what you can get from one or a few discussions. Renner is smart enough to know that. Heck, she's already doing it correctly since. Let me explain. When evaluating someone, you also take everything the person has done so far into consideration. That's what Renner has been doing so far. She knows what is happening and what will happen based on evaluating all factors(even minor ones) that she hears of.

That's the thing. So far, from an outsider's point of view, the actions of Ainz in the New World do make him seem like a genius. What Ainz did in the Empire in vol 10 will only further that impression.
