Chapter 508 Guardians (4)
During the next few days, Billy worked on leveling up Mana Shield and trying to find a way to use it on his kids without making them stand out. He didn’t make much progress in that area, but at least their pets were growing more robust, and they were, for the time being, their last line of defense. At that point in time, Billy was also starting to wonder that perhaps he should try other approaches, like something less direct and at the same time, effective. Thanks to that, he recalled something else.”By the way, isn’t it about time you guys start teaching another group of kids?” Billy asked.
”How can someone start a conversation with: by the way?” Kate asked while frowning. “Jean isn’t so keen on teaching other groups as of late since many things have been happening. I guess he wants us to be ready to act as soon as possible if something happens.”
”Most of the allied states have hundreds of people that know the basics of magic, so they can spread the knowledge, so we are fine,” Sarah added.
That made sense. Billy finally achieves the goal of letting other people learn basic magic. Now they might evolve the spells by themselves. It might take a while for him to see or hear about an unusual use of mana, but he would wait patiently for it while he developed his own skills. The only issue was that the others only knew about the most basic use of magic: it was elemental magic. Billy and his friends were already on the next stage, but perhaps they still could learn something new, but useful. Billy tends to focus too much on his goals, so he could have missed some things during his training.
”I suppose we will have more time to manage our territories, but I am not sure exactly what else I can do,” Kate said while pondering if she should try to expand the towns under her rule.
Since all of them could use Flash, moving around wasn’t a problem, they could go and return on the same day without wasting time. Since Billy was almost always at home, it was fine for them to leave the kids with him.
”Billy… you aren’t going to the dungeon towns as much as of later,” Sarah said.
”There is nothing for me to do there. The people in those places are too scared of causing trouble to me,” Billy explained.
”I wonder how things got this way…” Sarah said while forcing a smile.
Billy was thinking the same thing. It wasn’t like he was a ruthless leader when he was working in the dungeon towns. Still, he was pretty infamous due to his accomplishments. Also, most of the dungeon towns were built with his magic. It was kind of hard to pick a fight with someone like that and hope to win.
Although they had more time on their hands now, Billy’s wives didn’t find themselves bored. They had more time to train now, after all. While Sarah couldn’t do much physical activity, it wasn’t like she did that in the first place as much as the others. Her talent was almost Absolute when it came to magic, and lately, she was improving her ability to fly while using Earth magic. Since the freedom in the air was much better, one had to get used to it. After all, getting dizzy was only natural when flying and spinning in the air so often.
In any case, Billy wondered if it was about the tune to teach them Mana shield… He wanted to improve his skill a little more. Still, perhaps they should have some time to make the skills level up as well, in order to avoid the worst-case scenario in case other difficult battles take place in the near future.
”I will call Alexander and Lily, I managed to learn the skill of the amulet that Felipe gave me, so I will teach everyone,” Billy said.
Alexander was slacking on his garden as well when Billy went to his house. He also saw Lily teaching archery to Lara. They had too much time on their hands as well… in any case, it didn’t seem like Alexander felt bothered that his daughter wouldn’t become a spearwoman. Regardless, they brought Lara alongside them since, lately, their kids had been playing a lot. In the end, Billy forgot that he also should give Lara a pet that will become a guardian later… he didn’t interact much with her, so it couldn’t be helped that he forgot.
”It is kind of surprising that you learned something like that,” Alexander said. “You are hardworking and have talent, but I thought that it would be impossible to replicate the effects of something like a relic of that level.”
”The moment that you say that something is impossible will be the moment that you will never be able to do something,” Billy said. “There is no point in determining your own limitations.”
”While those are some weird words, I guess that they make sense,” Alexander said. “By the way, I finally mastered that technique. Do you want to see it?”
”I suppose it is better than nothing… I will judge if it is a waste of time or if it is too dangerous,” Billy said.
Once they got back to Billy’s garden, Alexander activated the skill. As one would expect, his muscles got a lot bigger. At first, Billy thought that he was trying to show off, but it was clear that he was focused on keeping the skill active. In any case, if Alexander’s body had turned green, it would have looked like that famous transformation.
Body Enhancement: it grants you a massive boost in strength and endurance and at the cost of your health. While fighting, the skill will consume five points of health per second, and all the damage will be directed at your muscles and bones. The bonus will be ten points per level.
