I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 512 World's History (4)

　　 Although they asked for souvenirs, Billy's wives didn't react much to the things he had bought… That pissed him off a little. In any case, he went to check things in his hideout and see if Icarus and Lucyna had left any messages, but there was nothing there. Billy thought that it was about time for another problem to emerge, but it seemed that his guess was wrong. Still, he sent them a message telling them that he got the Intel that they wanted. They would need to have a good talk about all that and then decide what they were going to do. While they weren't a real group of allies, some team work was required to avoid problems.

　　"Next… Make Mana Shield work on someone even when I am not close," Billy thought. "After that, I should try to learn more advanced spells without using the basic elements."

　　 The others were almost finished learning Mana Shield, so they will have an extra layer of defense in case something happens. So, things were proceeding well. While Billy was thinking about how to improve Mana Shield, he recalled what he learned the other way. Angus disappeared when he went to a beach… Felipe didn't mention anything like that happening to his ancestor… She just suddenly disappeared. Still, Billy felt that there was a connection.

　　"Come to think of it… I wonder if there are other continents in this world," Billy thought. "Given how things were back then on Earth, it was no wonder it took a while for America to be discovered. Boats in this world are pretty small, so they aren't suited for long trips. Still, it might be worth checking."

　　 Billy found himself quite excited… It has been a while since he felt like that, probably since the first time he headed to a dungeon. Exploring unknown things was the romance of the people back then on Earth, after all. While nowadays, people think of exploring the cosmos… It was a pity that a single trip to Mars took around nine months just to go. The human race still had a long way ahead of themselves.

　　 In any case, Sarah was pregnant, so traveling around the world for the next two years was probably impossible. Hector and Christina still were pretty small, so they won't remember much either. It was important to make good memories as a family while they could since Billy had no idea what might happen in the future when it comes to that world.

　　"Doing some exploration might be good later, but there are several things I need to prepareo," Billy thought.

　　 Even if they couldn't remember much later, Billy thought that it was fine. After all, they would grow up and see the world by themselves one day. It was important to grab those chances when they appeared. Although Billy thought that, he had realized that he didn't know the full dimensions of that continent, so perhaps he should change his approach a bit.

　　 In any case, the day ended without anything really happening, but at night, Billy received a message from Icarus. It seemed that he and Lucyna were coming to hear about what he learned with his research. Billy wondered if there was something that he should hide from them, but he had already done that once, and they learned later that it probably wasn't a good idea. Every time that he tells half-truths, he feels worse. He gets even worse when he is forced to say those to his family.

　　"I see… It seems our original guess was right," Icarus said after hearing more or less about the history of that world. "The reincarnated individuals most of the time ended up fighting one another, but there are some like us that manage to avoid that."

　　"Still, even the most Pacific ones ended up disappearing, do we have any idea why?" Lucyna asked.

　　"Aside from the fact that they disliked fighting, I don't know any other semblance that Angus and Galatea had," Billy replied.

　　"I suppose we won't find any more registers in any other place, so it will be hard to find more clues," Icarus said and then sighed. "The fact that alongside us, some troublesome monsters appear is also troublesome… I don't think that we have the leisure to worry about that, but did you find any traces of new creatures like those appearing anywhere?"

　　"Nope," Billy replied.

　　 Icarus sighed again…. it seemed that he was the type who gets easily depressed. That was only annoying from Billy's perspective. That being said, he was probably even more annoying from their perspective.

　　"It would really be a problem if the necromancer finds the remainings of those monsters and revive them," Icarus said. "We didn't have any luck finding traces of them, but we know that they didn't get the titans."

　　"Well, they aren't organic creatures, so they can't become skeletons of zombies," Billy said, and then he had an idea.

　　 Billy summoned the pets of his kids with the intention of making them grow over time by themselves, so he wondered if they could live for five hundred years, they would become as powerful as a titan… The only difference between them was the fact that the titans didn't become dust after being killed. Aside from that, they were pretty similar to the creatures created with the power of Beastly Summoning. Billy had yet to summon a monster to help him, but perhaps he should do that and let the beast face other monsters in his dungeons. It certainly would speed up their progress.

　　"Well, we will keep searching for the necromancer, in the meantime, you should keep your guard up," Icarus said.

　　"I never drop my guard," Billy said.

　　 Billy is always with his spear. After all, he only lets it go when he is sleeping with his wives. Even when that happens, the weapon is within his arms' reach, but that wasn't something he should say out loud.
