Well, there is an interview where Maruyama says that the Overlord will have 18 novels and then the story of Overlord will be over, but the story around Ainz would continue...

It's in the second manga, but I bought them in german, so I can't really quote :/

But from the context I would say that it means that Overlord will have 18 novels and that Ainz does not die!

Can this really be considered a spoiler though? He is the main character and he is not like Light Yagami who became super evil and one was just waiting for the moment when he gets what he deserved, so why should Ainz die?
