Given the current rate of progress, it's more like 40+ volumes. But he'll probably try to wrap the main story up in 20. Anything after that will be side stories and such.

The "big bad" of the series will probably turn out to be whatever is causing the Beastmen nations to the east to unite and undertake conquest of the human area (about the size of Spain) where most of the story has been focused so far.
