I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire episode 9 recap

The episode opens with an exhausted worker complaining of the labor shortage in Liam's territory. All these problems notwithstanding, Liam has acquired yet another stash of pirate treasure, stoking the explosive growth of cities and fresh business strategies.
But wealth attracts notice, and not always the good kind. The Guide, who is looking for negative energy, is frustrated. Liam was supposed to fail, yet he’s growing, earning praise even from high-ranking officials, which contradicts his dream of becoming a feared evil lord.
Meanwhile, Yasushi, Liam’s so-called sword master, lives quietly in peace to avoid being exposed as a fraud. However, Liam keeps praising Yasushi publicly, even crediting him after another pirate victory. Now, Yasushi’s name is spreading, and he panics over the rising attention.

The Goaz Pirate Gang, having narrowly escaped an Imperial ambush, is horrified to discover that they had been incorrectly routed onto military training grounds.
Goaz curses the Domos Gate but learns from the Guide that Liam had led them into this trap. Fuming, Goaz dispatches his fleet towards the Banfield territory with the intention of seeking revenge.
Back in Banfield, Liam has a meal with AI android robots attending to him. He fantasizes about how an actual "evil lord" would be treated by women and meat. Amagi can set it up for him, she suggests, but Liam refuses, curious about her reaction. Amagi tells him she's just an AI and not a woman who can love or bear a family.
Subsequently, Amagi presents a hopeful balance sheet—the empire's economy is developing, and the pirate treasure is paying off outstanding obligations. But Liam is weighed down with responsibility, far from the self-indulgent evil lord he aspired to be.
He mocks raising taxes and starts harassing the people, but Amagi quickly cautions him against this.

The scene cuts to Liam's robots, who talk about doing cleaning tasks below their mandate. Amagi warns them to stay away from Liam, as human-AI closeness is hated. When questioned why she is exempt, she states it's just Liam's desire.
The episode concludes with Brian's report that Goaz declared war. Liam is informed that he has a 3.8% shot at winning, but before he can be utterly despondent, the moment is broken—the Guide arrives and admits to having lured the pirates there.
If Liam wins, he will be rewarded with a huge amount. With a burst of encouragement, Liam orders the ship prepared for battle.
What to expect from I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire episode 10? (speculative)

Since Goaz has declared war against the Banfield territory, the next episode of I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire will most likely feature a fierce battle between the pirate and Liam.
When the military officials think Liam's decision to face the pirates is a reckless one, Liam orders them in an "evil" sense. He also mentions that he will be launching Avid in the battle.
On the other hand, Brian is still shocked. He mentions that if Liam had been born at least 100 years earlier, he could have easily defeated the pirate gang. However, with its current state, it is impossible.
At the same time, the Guide is happy to find out that he has successfully trapped Liam, whose defeat will be effective for the Guide in terms of the negative energy.
