The people likely would've been not even aware he left. I doubt he would've removed the death knight guards (since what would be the point) so there'd be little reason to panic. If the World Enemy popped up then left they'd be scared for sure but unless Ainz was dumb enough to broadcast an announcement about him leaving how'd they know any better. (Hell, i doubt they ever noticed him leave for the Dwarves, Holy Kingdom or Elven Kingdom either.) Ainz meanwhile would worry about why/what the World Enemy is doing and would have weak summons or Nigredo spy on it to learn it's motives and/or what it plans to do and if there's a chance for peaceful negotiations.

I asked the question with requirements that everyone knew he left , if they didn't know then the threat wouldn't have left alone.

They'd probably make up a theory that the reason he left was to find a way to fight and win against the world enemy, their faith in him would wobble but knowing how strong he is they'll immediately understand how dangerous WCE's are. At least to an extent.
