Ainz - Memory Magic

Ainz cut him off by raising a hand. “Why don’t we discuss that later. On my way here, I saved a pair of sisters. Give me a little time to bring them here.” He would have to ask those two to keep their mouths shut. They’d seen him without the mask.

Ainz headed off at a leisurely pace without waiting for the villagers’ reply, wondering if memory manipulation magic would work.

For Ainz it was nothing strange. It was only natural to behave amicably with the people one was about to negotiate with.

Of course, he could always use some magic like Charm Person to get info out of them and then manipulate their memories with an elite spell as he had with the two sisters, but he wanted to save that for a last resort. In any case, it would cost a ton of magic points (MP).

Even now there was a heavy, leaden feeling at his core. Even just to overwrite a couple minutes of memory to make it so he had been wearing the mask and gauntlets from the beginning seemed to have cost quite a lot of MP. It was a serious loss.
