I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 275 Reasons (3)

In the end, due to the fuel problems, Billy only managed to go to another village and then make more three hundred people follow him. Suddenly, his dungeon town had a population of an extra five hundred people, and that was a problem until Jean’s people came to help. Still, Billy left that problem in the hands of the receptionist and Gilles since he was too tired after skipping sleep two nights in a row.

Despite that, Billy woke up at noon to recover his mana inside the dungeon and then increase the length of the tunnel as well. Still, unfortunately, he had to stop because he had to build some houses on the eastern side of the wall for those five hundred people. The design was rather simple, and they were all the same, but it was a roof over their heads. And Billy even made some bad made of Earth and then asked his receptionist to buy other things to make life more comfortable for them.

”You really are an unusual young man,” Gilles said.

”Don’t say such a thing so suddenly, gramps, it is giving me the creeps,” Billy said. “In any case, we are going tonight again, because tomorrow onwards we will have to stop and rest a little because the cart will be out of fuel for a few days.”

While the receptionist was working to buy Edish fruits from the nearby towns as well, the stock was rather low. Still, it was fine because Billy would have more time to work on the tunnels. Since they already knew about it, Billy might as well make the immigrants help him, but that probably wasn’t a good idea. It would be better if they didn’t know how fast Billy can dig with magic…

Things worked faster on the second night because of Billy’s preparations. Thanks to that, they managed to bring the people of three other towns, and Billy also freed some guards from the brainwashing. The only problem was the fact that he had to leave all of those guys in a prison since even the non brainwashed ones could become a problem. Fortunately, since Billy allowed visits, everyone knew that he hadn’t killed anyone. Hence they also knew that Billy had no ill intentions. It would be easy for him to give the orders of the guards of the town to kill them if he wanted as well.

In any case, thanks to his hard work, now more than fifteen hundred immigrants have crossed the borders. No one aside from those involved knew what had happened, but maybe a few smart people and Jeannette probably knew what Billy had done. Still, they couldn’t do anything directly from stopping.

While he was waiting for his vehicle’s fuel to be completed, he put the immigrants to work. While Billy had promised them that they wouldn’t fight against the army that was composed of their allies, there wasn’t much they could do in a dungeon town that wasn’t related to fighting. Crafting arrows, sharpening weapons, working on gathering the pelt and leather of the dungeon monsters… It couldn’t be helped since they couldn’t eat for free.

In any case, Billy had to wait for four days before his magic cart was ready again, and around the same time, a new group of people coming from the west showed up in the dungeon town. Even from a distance, Billy recognized Pierre leading the group, so it seemed that Jean worked really fast this time.

”Oh, is it you the help that Jean sent?” Billy asked.

”Ouch, such sharp and cold words,” Pierre said. “In any case, you worked fast, huh. There are a lot more people here than I expected. I will have a hard time allocating so many people around.”

Billy wondered what Pierre would think that was the result of him working for just two days instead of a week. Nevertheless, it was quite a good feeling to know that his friends and enemies didn’t know what he could do when he was serious.

”Anyway, do you need help with something else?” Pierre asked.

”More Edish fruits, I want a lot more…” Billy replied.

”You might as well have an entire forest of those trees…” Pierre said while frowning. “How can you eat such sour fruits so much?”

”I am planning to have a forest out of those,” Billy replied. “This entire operation will save us a lot of time and prevent many deaths, so I am expecting some juice rewards from Jean.”

Pierre frowned when he heard that, but in the end, it was only expected that someone would expect proper compensation for their work. He was doing beyond his job as the guild master required of him, after all.

”I will see what I can do,” Pierre said.

Billy was already the person who had most of those trees, and while people could recover their mana and feel pretty good while eating those, it wasn’t something someone could eat that often. In any case, if things continued at that pace, Billy assumed that he could finish helping almost eighty percent of the people on the Western side of Toles state. The only problem was the two large cities. Making a lot of people leave those without making it obvious would be almost impossible. In any case, that was a problem for later. Billy could think about that once he makes every one of the small towns and villages escape…

”Aren’t we going deeper than before?” Gilles asked when he noticed that their travel in the tunnels was longer than before. “You really can do a lot, don’t you?”

Billy decided not to answer that. He already was showing too much, even for a possible ally. Besides, he was really far away from his real goal when it came to those. Such thoughts disappeared from his mind as soon as they left the tunnel and then reached the first village that they were going to target in the area…
