Chapter 625 Not exactly (1)
Billy always thought that something else might be pulling the strings behind the scenes. At first, he thought that it was the gods of that world, and then he thought that the previous reincarnated individuals somehow were interfering with things. However, now he was thinking that something else was doing that, and he had no idea what it was yet… still, it seemed that him and the others were getting close to getting the answers that they needed…After thinking for a while, Billy decided to increase his magic yet again. If he does that and manages to make other discoveries in that field, perhaps he could understand things a bit more. As of now, it was clear that his magic limited the number of things he could do, but it didn’t seem like a good idea to put all his free points there.
”Oh, well… who cares?” Billy asked. “Since I can attack many times more with my reserves of mana, I might as well make it even stronger.”
In the end, Billy allocated all of his free status points with magic and felt his power increasing. Alongside that, he also felt that his options had increased… but when he tried to distort space, he still failed. As expected, Billy was missing something else, and that wasn’t raw magic power.
”Let’s go home for today…” Billy said and then sighed.
Going home and seeing his family would reinvigorate Billy, so he would have more chances of thinking of something good to solve those problems with his training than alone in that depressing place. Although Billy thought of that, he found his wives and friends looking troubled in the garden when he arrived.
”What is wrong?” Billy asked. “Did you eat too much Tyrant’s meat and now your stomach is upset?”
”It is nothing, we were just thinking about it how useful the rings are,” Kate replied. “We can tell that they are helping on the training quite a bit and that seems troubling since it doesn’t feel like an strength that we earned.”
Welcome to Billy’s daily life of worries… that was what he wanted to say, but he couldn’t. As expected, ordinary people that had been raised in a manner that all of their things had to be earned would feel that way.
”The tyrants’ hearts are also making us recover a lot faster, so it feels like our limitations are gone now,” Natalie said.
”I have heard that the taverns that are selling that meat are pretty much the only ones which are making profit nowadays,” Sarah said. “We know that you brought those materials with good intentions, so we were thinking of how we should to solve the issue.”
Billy wanted to say that they were too addicted to solving other people’s problems, but that would probably put him in trouble. Besides, he also was a bit worried… he said before to Icarus and the others that they shouldn’t interfere with the natural order of that world too much, but he did that anyway. Even if it was unintentional.
”Well… If you need help with that, I will try to give you a hand,” Billy said. “Still, I think things will solve themselves eventually. Changes usually cause problems to some people, but they eventually get used to it. Besides, that kind of meat is pretty rare yet and expensive. There are only so many folks that can afford it on a daily basis.”
”I suppose you do have a point…” Kate said.
Billy nodded in satisfaction. It wasn’t like he did something wrong, giving a chance to some people to eat something that would make them feel full of energy… It was impossible to say that it was the wrong thing to do… Besides, when it comes to their survival, people have three options: adapt to the environment, change the environment, or die. Nature and human society can be that ruthless at times.
”Hmm… change the environment or change themselves…” Billy muttered.
”Did you say something?” Kate asked. “You are muttering a lot of weird things lately.”
”I just had an idea…” Billy said. “Well, I can try it later. I am going to clean myself for dinner.”
After so many failures, Billy wasn’t confident that his newest idea would make him succeed, but at least he could try. He actually did it while he was in the bath… Billy used a low scale of Mana Dominion. Still, then he increased the mana output without increasing its range… nothing happened. Billy did the same with Mana Shield, but nothing happened as well. When he was about to give up, he thought of using Mana Shield as close as possible to his body, and then he increased the intensity of the energy until it felt like the shield was even negating the light around him.
You learned the skill of Invisibility.
It grants you the power to disappear from the environments by disguising your body with mana able to negate the light around you. You can use this spell on anything.”
Cost: 10 mana per second.
”That isn’t what I wanted…” Billy said and then sighed. “Oh, well…”
At least the skill had some combat uses since it could make everything become invisible… even weapons. So, against some enemies, Billy will be able to make them fear the reach of his glaive.
Billy also had some ideas like making the defense mechanisms of his home invisible. Still, it would consume way too much mana for that to be possible, so he decided to forget that for the time being.
”At least I am learning skills that I thought were impossible before… If I remember well, invisibility costs three hundred skill points,” Billy thought.
It would be nice if Billy could make his magic presence disappear as well. At the same time, that skill was active, but considering that not even the demi-humans who were specialists in that kind of skill could, it is hard to believe that he could…
