I love his character. The way he delivers his voice lines is perfect.
But yeah, "I'll fly away and let my lackeys to do the job for me" makes sense only in case he doesn't become aware/convinced that you have the artifact he's looking for.
In that scenario he absolutely should not have the confidence to delegate the job.
I can accept the dragon not intervening (something about "damaging the goods" or some excuse like that) or him watching on the sidelines because "he doesn't want to dirty his hands with lesser beings" etc. But in the very moment the players admit they have the desired artifact it should basically be game over for them.
Or at least he should fly away AFTER taking the item from us, leaving to his lackeys just to finish the job.
