Apparently Volume 18 will be the last one.

The previous volume (Volume 17) covers the battle with Ganelon and the lead-up to the final battle against Valentina.

I also don't think that Ellen will die and that the battle with Valentina will probably take 3-4 chapters at best with the remaining 2-3 being the aftermath and the time-skip epilogue chapters, probably.
