Besides, Ainz isn't arrogant or careless enough to let this happen to him again from since the time when Shalltear was brainwashed. Volume 9 only confirms that nobody in the Baharuth Empire or Re-Estize Kingdom are capable of stopping Ainz. This doesn't quite signified that Ainz had become conceited, because he had already learned his lesson on not overestimating himself especially to the unknown nations asides from the ones already let alone mentioned. Ainz merely identifies that these two nations too were the current kinds weak in their views and are powerless to oppose them. Ainz is not paranoid about them anymore, but just other nations such as the Slane Theocracy and beyond the borders of Nazarick that he has yet to gathered enough information on.
