My thoughts exactly. I think Volume 10 will start off on the perspective of those in the Empire as featured in the Web Novels. Probably followed by the perspective of Ainz gaining more info on the Dwarven Kingdom. Since the dwarven kingdom were able to maintain their kingdom in the mountains between the Kingdom and Empire. It is expected that they were able to maintain their sovereignty from their exclusive trade of metals. Chances are high that Ainz will target the dwarven kingdom to obtain a source of precious metal of Nazarick. Although damantite is the toughest metal in the new world so far, Nazarick has a storage of precious rare metal only available from Yddrassil, they might need to find alternative metal sources for their crafting.
