I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 551 Deception (1)

　　 Around the time Billy finished Natalie's armor and was halfway through finishing Kate's, his armor was already fully charged and ready to deploy. During that week, he had many ideas, like trying to find a way for the armors to move toward them by themselves once they do something specific. Or create an automatic working function that would make the armor operate by itself and do some simple tasks. However, implementing all of those would take the time that wasn't something that he had a lot right now.

　　"I suppose I can wait a few days more and finish Kate and Sarah's armor," Billy thought. "Icarus and Lucyna's report aren't mentioning anything, after all."

　　 Although they weren't that specific yet, Icarus was using their communication device to send data and drawings of the creatures and demi-humans they found. So, Billy didn't need to gather more intel for the time being.

　　 That was the plan, but Billy didn't get surprised when he realized that he wouldn't have time to do that. Around the time he finished Kate's armor, Icarus and Lucyna stopped sending their reports, which was weird since they sent several along the day. After two days of waiting, Billy decided to check things there.

　　"Sorry, Sarah," Billy said. "I am going to check something real quick, and once I do, I will return and finish your armor."

　　"You don't have to worry and end up making a mistake that might put you in danger," Sarah said. "Also, you are seeing Alexander and Lily less often lately, and they know that you are up to something, so they might get the wrong idea if you don't fill them up eventually."

　　"I suppose you can tell them what I am doing, but I will tell most of the details later," Billy said. "I guess I will have to make some armors for them as well."

　　 Billy's wives couldn't help but worry. Billy was very cautious in nature, even though he had so much power. Those armors were stupidly powerful as well. There was a chance that each one of them could have defeated the titans with those by themselves… If Billy wanted all of them to have that kind of power, it only means that he was being a lot more careful than usual. They couldn't imagine yet the level that the next enemies might have if Billy thought that those armors were necessary.

　　 After that, Billy left his workshop using the same tunnel as usual, but this time, he was leaving in plain daylight and as fast as possible. He was using the effects of the armor to keep him invisible and undetected. Still, they can only do so much when he is flying that fast during the day. Nevertheless, Billy didn't have many other choices since he had to confirm if those two morons had been killed or captured. If they had been killed, he had to find the enemy before they got used to their new powers and defeated them. If they had been captured, Billy didn't know what to do… his anger would probably decide things for him. After all, he gave them one heck of magic items, and they were already lost on the next mission.

　　"Those morons probably were in the south, investigating the nearby lands to that spot, the epicenter of the earthquake," Billy thought. "I should look for traces of them there."

　　 As usual, it took six hours for Billy to reach the continent and another half an hour to find the area that he was looking for. He had brought with him a magic telescope that could find traces of mana, and he installed it on the armor since he had learned his previous lesson of not looking for things with only his eyes.

　　 In any case, while the mana level of the continent messed with his tool, Billy still managed to find something that he called standing waves of mana. It was something caused by the movements of someone who had a lot of mana walking in that area. He found traces of the morons running around the area and looking for details left by the enemies. However, the traces left by them were too cold since many days had passed…

　　"Their traces head to the west, but it mixes with several others…" Billy thought. "Those are as powerful as them, but there is no disturbance on them…."

　　 When the mana was calm and hadn't been used to fighting, the mana around looked like a quiet ocean that rarely creates waves. So, Billy just had to look for spots where that wasn't the case. Billy found some a few kilometers away in the direction they headed for, and the undulations of mana were quite insane. Even without that, Billy could tell that one heck of a battle took place there since many trees had been destroyed and the ground had some burn marks in the shape of lines. Icarus probably had to use his max speed, but even so…

　　"He still got defeated and captured?" Billy asked. "I can't see any traces of blood…"

　　 While Icarus and Lucyna were strong, Billy could think of numerous ways of defeating them without a direct fight. They were particularly weak against magic, so illusions of mind control would checkmate them pretty easily. Billy had considered how powerful the necromancer would become if he got their powers and used their bodies as zombies as well… it would be a real pain in the ass. With that in mind, Billy had even more reasons to teach them magic.

　　"The undulations created by their mana end a few kilometers ahead… It seems that they were captured after being knocked down," Billy thought while looking around and finding nothing. "I told those morons to be careful and stay away from here… what is the point of being merciful when those guys are so stupid and useless?"

　　 Because of his morals, Billy let that happen… Perhaps it wasn't too late to create those death rings.
