"Now great Odysseus stil remained in the hall, pondering how, with the help of Athene, he would murder the suitors."
Clearly, Odysseus is not just a kind and trusting man, but ruthless and quick for revenge. This was seen before during BOOK IX, when Odysseus blatantly yells out his name, flaunting his apparent immortality. He sought to anger Polyphemos, confident in his escape.
While it may be dangerous, he is 'Odysseus' favored of the grey-eyed Goddess Athene. He is overly confident. There is no hesitation in his thoughts as to the fact that he WILL kill the suitors, he merely ponders how.
