Chapter 563 Observing (3)

Although he didn't like it, Blitz ended up helping Billy test the surveillance lens. That was what Billy called the lenses and the mirrors that were connected. While the lenses were pretty thin. It was anything but normal to make a monster use one. Still, Blitz knew that Billy wouldn't do anything to hurt him, so he accepted. After bitting his hands a few times... Billy wondered why he tolerated that annoying bird so much... It was probably because he wouldn't taste as good as chicken.

"Come on, open your eyes a bit more," Billy said. "You will be my eyes when I won't be at home. So, you will have to keep this at all times."

Blitz beaked Billy's arms since he didn't like when Billy was bossy. Although he could be that annoying to his master, it was normal for him to cause that much trouble. Billy had gotten used to it. Regardless, the lens was a pretty thing and barely affected Blitz's eyesight, so he didn't react in any way when Billy finished it. Once Billy put some mana in the mirror, he began to see things from Blitz's perspective. Even when he moved away for several kilometers, nothing changed.

"I guess this is a success… I never thought that I would create this kind of surveillance camera… It is also weird that it works as a mirror," Billy thought.

Billy customized the mirror so that it would only work when he poured mana in it. Thanks to that, the durability increased a lot. It probably could last several months… In any case, now he just needed to install some lenses around the territories of those three factions. He didn't have to use an animal or a monster since they couldn't stay still forever. They also would look out of place.

While Billy was making more copies of the lenses and mirrors, he received a message from Icarus. From his perspective, it looked like the leader of the camp they were watching was getting more active, and they were attacking several positions every day. Thanks to it, they were getting busier and were having a hard time coming up with the right time to return home and rest for a while.

"I suppose I can tell them about these… Ambushing the enemies will be faster if we install those as soon as possible," Billy thought.

Billy didn't have to tell them about the fact that he had found the other camps, and it would be better if they focused on decreasing the forces of a single enemy as well. In the end, Billy decided to call them back and show them his newest Creation.

"Hmm, they will arrive in two days… It was supposed to be the day that I would go to that continent," Billy thought. "Still, since I only have to install those on the Necromancers territory, it will be fine. The real problem is the third territory."

Billy couldn't approach that territory. Animals and monsters probably won't get closer either… Even after thinking for two days, Billy didn't come up with a solution.

"Hmm? What are those?" Icarus asked when they showed up.

Instead of explaining, Billy showed them how the magic mirrors worked. In the end, they got as surprised as they could and stayed quiet for several minutes.

"I am really starting to think that mana can really do anything…" Icarus said.

"Have you tried to replicate more things from Earth?" Lucyna asked.

"A few things, but I only focus on what is useful for me in my daily life," Billy replied.

"I have been moving around, and in the recent years, I paid some adventurers to teach me basic magic, but I am still at the elemental level," Lucyna said. "I can only think that it will take decades to be able to make something like this."

Billy wasn't surprised that Lucyna learned magic. He was surprised that it took so long for her to take a liking to it. As for Icarus, he looked quite shocked since apparently, he had been waiting all this time for Billy to teach him… The moron had no idea that Billy had spread the knowledge of how to use mana in his own way. Although, he kept most secrets to himself and his friends.

"I can teach you the basics, Icarus," Lucyna said. "What kind of tips you can give, Billy?"

"My lessons are expensive, but if you want to become good at magic, then you should meditate every day, as much as possible," Billy replied. "Anything else, and you will have to pay a lesson fee."

Although it would take a while to show some results, it was better late than never to start when it comes to magic training. Still, Icarus wouldn't have much of a hard time if they installed the cameras successfully in the right spots. However, Icarus sat right there, to Billy's surprise, and began to meditate.

"Hey, hey… Are you for real?" Billy asked.

Although Billy said that, he felt Icarus infusing a lot of mana. To make things even weirder, Billy checked his status and saw his magic and the level of Meditation rising. Billy thought that Icarus could only increase his moving speed. Still, actually, he could control the acceleration of everything, even of his training.

"Ugh, it has been a while since I did this," Icarus groaned while he was getting up. "It's a bit unpleasant."

"I guess I sold your stupidity short…" Billy said.

"It is fine, we more or less know what you can do, and you have some ideas about our powers as well," Icarus said. "We have been working for long enough to know that we can trust each other."

"Speak for yourself," Billy said.

"You are hard to handle… In any case, my second skill grants me the power to control the progress of things," Icarus said. "Since it is called Time Skip, I guess it belongs to the time magic section. I can make things develop faster than usual."
