Ainz - Mirror Mirror

“We’ve given the lizardmen some time. Allow me to make sure they aren’t doing anything that might surprise us.”

A bird’s-eye view of the lizardman village gradually appeared in the Mirror of Remote Viewing. Little specks were running around inside.

Ainz moved his hand, changing the scenery visible in the mirror.

First, naturally, he zoomed in. That made it clear that the lizardmen were frantically preparing for war.

“Understood.” Demiurge bowed once, took the shoulder bag on the table that had been moved into the corner of the room, and politely handed it to Ainz. Ainz took out a scroll.

Then he cast a spell with it. The spell created a sense organ that could see the invisible and insubstantial. It couldn’t penetrate a magic barrier if there was one, but it could get through any regular wall, no matter how thick. If for some reason it couldn’t, that would prove that they were up against an opponent who didn’t let their guard down.

By linking it with the Mirror of Remote Viewing, he allowed the guardians to see what he was seeing and then moved the eyeball-like organ floating in the air.
