Your alarm and concern that Ainz has made a mistake here is already fun.

Overlord is a story in which the dramatic tension doesn't arise primarily from concern about whether Ainz will win, but rather from angst over the cost of his mistakes.

We're supposed to feel alarmed that each of these misses will result in something terrible. That's why we have all the endlessly amusing discussions of what Albedo is going to end up doing. Ainz knows that he is utterly incompetent to handle her no matter what she does, which makes it...fun.
