Chapter 337 Invitation (3)
The next day, when they weren’t planning to drink, Billy took Svan, Ilfa, and Marie to the inn where they were staying. Billy warned them to behave because of his kids and his siblings, so they agreed since, in that world, people only introduce their families to those they respected.”Two at the same time, huh,” Svan said and then laughed. “You are a busy man, I see.”
Svan stopped when he saw the look in Billy’s eyes. There are no dirty jokes in front of the kids, not even the ones with double meaning. Nevertheless, things got pretty lively after that. Gilles became good friends with Svan, and that made the big barbarian closer to Rosalie and then Aura. While they made an agreement before, they didn’t become friends or allies because of it. It was possible for that to happen only at moments of relaxing like those.
”You don’t have many mountains around, and yet, there are many lakes and rivers crossing these lands,” Billy said while looking at the scenario through the window of his room. “Their springs are all in other states, right? Don’t you fear that they might try to cut your water one day when they intend to pick a fight with your people?”
”Only someone with a crazy level of magic like you would be able to do that,” Svan said. “Besides, even by relying on such petty tricks, the other states wouldn’t want to make an enemy out of us. It seems a victorious past made you guys too relaxed regarding invasions. Come to think of it, you people started the war against Jeannette, right?”
”Yes, she began to bother us with those petty tricks, and then when the harassment got too annoying, we decided to fight,” Svan replied. “In the end, it was just a plan to make us leave our territory in order for her to control the minds of the most influential barbarians. Still, that is in the past, why are you talking about that?”
”I just want to know more about the other states that share borders with your people,” Billy said. “I don’t know much about them and I am quite curious about these guys that can heal wounds instantly.”
”Ah, those guys… only a few of them can do that, the others can only make wounds heal faster, fast enough for me though,” Svan said. “Still, I wouldn’t get involved with them, they are a troublesome bunch.”
”How so?” Billy asked.
”You see, they have all of those unreasonable rules that they follow and they say that it was something that their goddess told them to,” Svan said. “They condemn those that can’t live like them, with their lives full of restrictions.”
”Goddess?” Billy asked while frowning.
”I can understand your confusion, as if someone like a goddess would talk with mere mortals,” Svan shrugged. “Then again, I can’t be sure… they have that religion of theirs and they have been following it for more than five hundred years… There is also the fact that only their people are born with that ability to heal wounds and help the sick. Maybe that is one ability granted by their goddess.”
”I can see how you wouldn’t get along with them…” Billy said while looking at the maze that was the city.
”Right? At least they are a peaceful bunch, they didn’t attack any state in the last five hundred years,” Svan said. “Those who attacked them suffered great losses, though. Unless you smash their heads and pierce their hearts, they can be healed in just a couple of minutes.”
Billy was learning a lot and quite fast… Who could have thought that traveling to such a place wouldn’t be a massive waste of time? Still, while he wanted to ask more, the others wanted to walk around the city, and Svan wasn’t the type to stay still for long, unless he was drinking. So, Billy stayed behind to look after Hector and Christina.
”Since I am participating, I guess I should try to ger the prize, but to do that, I will have to defeat Natalie…” Billy thought and then sighed. “As expected, I can’t fight one of my wives seriously… But pulling my punches will hurt her pride.”

Since Billy had some status points, he wondered if he should use them to increase his chances. He had no idea the people he was going to face, but he wouldn’t drop his guard even against a kid. It seemed a bit too soon for that… Though. Hopefully, his current skills and parameters will be enough to win all the battles…
”If I win, you two will have to calm me papa, all right?” Billy asked.
As usual, Hector and Christina just watched Billy with an absent-minded expression. Hector cracked a smile, and Christina laughed a lot when he did some fart with his armpit, though. That was so sweet that he spent the rest of the afternoon doing that, and those two fell asleep since they got tired of laughing so much. In the end, Billy got scolded since they shouldn’t fall asleep so late in the afternoon, or it messes with their sleeping hours at night. Billy tried to do the armpit farts again, but he had to stop since they were noisy at night.
