Ainz - Psychic Resistance 2

She was enthusiastic to get going, but Momonga held her back. “Before that—” He grabbed the floating staff.

Okay, just like before. As he had done when he used the ring’s power, he focused his mind on the staff. Of its countless powers, the one Momonga chose was contained within one of its jewels—inside a god artifact, the Moon Orb.

Summon Moon Wolf!

As the summoning magic activated, three beasts oozed into existence out of nowhere. Nothing about this surprised Momonga, since that was how the animation had looked in Yggdrasil.

The moon wolves were similar in appearance to Eurasianwolves, except they gave off a silvery light. Momonga could sense a strange connection between these monsters and himself that clearly indicated who was in charge.

“Moon wolves?” Aura asked, her voice implying confusion at why he would summon such a weak monster.

Moon wolves were extremely fast, so they were often deployed as key units in sneak attacks, but they were only level 20—too weak for Momonga and Aura. But for their purposes right now, these were fine. Weaker was actually better.

“Yes. Include me in the range of your breath, too.”

“What? Are you sure?”

Aura didn’t seem okay with it, so he insisted, “It’s fine.”

Things weren’t operating completely like they had been in the game anymore, so he couldn’t ignore the possibility that Aura’s
powers weren’t working correctly. In order to rule it out, he needed to be hit with her power at the same time as a third party, hence the moon wolves.

Aura huffed and puffed for a little while, but Momonga didn’t feel a thing. Partway through, he turned his back to her and relaxed his mind, but there was still no effect. The moon wolves did seem affected, though, so her power must have been working. Therefore, it seemed Momonga was immune to psychic effects.

“I see. That’s good enough for now... I thank you, Aura. Any is-sues on your end?”

“No, everything’s fine.”

“Okay. Return!” The three moon wolves disappeared as if time were rewinding
