I Can Make Everything Level UP-Novel

Chapter 557 The next generation (1)

　　 While Billy was making Alexander and Lily's armors, he only received minor reports coming from Icarus and Lucyna. It was hard to say if they were too slow or if they were being cautious for a change. Nevertheless, around the time Billy finished one of the armors, he finally received a good report.

　　"It seems that they followed one of the armies when it was moving back to their main camp and the place is like a fortress," Billy thought while reading the report. "It does numero natural defenses around like hills and mountains and the number of guards in those posts to prevent ambushes isn't small… And thanks to it, they didn't have the chance to approach, not even with the cloak Billy made for them."

　　 Those two probably saw some kind of barrier using the telescope that Billy lent them… the guards were just one layer of defense. Killing them won't make things easy. It will only put them on high alert. After thinking for a while, Billy assumed that their best option would be to kill the salamanders and the riders slowly while they attacked their targets. Naturally, they would have to be careful with that as well.

　　 Billy told them what he thought it was the best plan of action, and Lucyna agreed. She did pretty much the same in her past, after all. In any case, Billy asked Icarus to draw a map of the area around the enemy fortress and the route they used to find it. Billy would use that as a basis when he goes there as well.

　　"It doesn't seem like the leader of that army shows themselves often… They probably are being cautious because of the other two leaders of that continent," Billy thought. "My next step will be finding them and accessing their strengths before choosing a target."

　　 While finishing the second armor, Billy tried to improve the performance of the cores of his own armor as much as possible. Thanks to that, the armor was able to function for fifty hours… It seemed like Billy just increased his punishment since he couldn't leave the armor. Actually, he could, but he was too cautious for his own good.

　　"As expected… It is getting hard to level up while using only the dungeons of this state," Billy thought. "I will have to summon more monsters to the others."

　　 It would be great if Billy could find the dungeons of the new continent. The monsters were bound to be stupidly powerful, so he would get a lot stronger faster. He also could summon his monsters to the continent and wipe the ones near the mountains, but they would draw attention in one way or the other. If they leave traces, they will be hunted. If they don't, the inhabitants will think that someone suspicious was around. In the end, the best moment to attack was when the people and monsters there were killing each other.

　　 Eventually, Billy finished Alexander and Lily's armors, and then he connected his workshop to their underground hideout. After doing some basic tests, they felt satisfied with the result. It was quite insane, but Lily's arrows could fly at ten kilometers per second… Regular arrows couldn't endure that speed, so she had to summon ones using Mana Constructs. As for the distance, they could fly… It was impossible to tell… She fired one upward, and then it left the atmosphere.

　　"I guess this is a success, still, to make use the speed and range, you will need and scope to help with your aim," Billy said.

　　"What is a scope?" Lily asked.

　　"Something that will help your vision," Billy replied.

　　"I don't need it, my eyes are good enough and I have a skill that helps it improve," Lily said.

　　 Billy checked Lily's status and confirmed that it was true… The skill was called Eagle Eyes, and it improved her eyesight as long as she focused her vision on a single target. Each level increased her range by fifty meters… It was quite something, but it required the user to have at least 250 points in dexterity. No wonder Billy never learned that.

　　"I suppose that will be good enough," Billy said.

　　 Alexander didn't have anything to add or change with his armor, so Billy was finally free of that work. It was weird that it took him so long, considering that he had that magic hammer… But that only was natural considering how powerful the armors were.

　　 Regardless, Billy decided to take a day off and spend it with his family, but then something troublesome happened. After they had their lessons on how to protect themselves using training swords and spears, Hector and Christina wanted to continue with their training instead of stopping and going to play by doing something else.

　　"Papa, teach me more how to fight with a spear," Christina said.

　　 Billy couldn't help but feel a bit troubled. He didn't want his kids to have any spartan training yet. They were only four and half years old, after all. To make things more complicated, Hector also looked like he wanted to ask the same thing, but he was too embarrassed and was hiding behind Kate's legs while peeking at him.

　　"Oh, man…" Billy said and then sighed.

　　"Why not take your time training them?" Kate asked. "The enemies aren't going to attack tomorrow, right?"

　　"You'd better use your free time wisely, once the fights start, you probably will be too busy for them," Natalie added.

　　"You already know the right answer, Billy," Sarah said. "There is only one option, actually. Besides, even if there weren't, you wouldn't choose anything else."

　　"I suppose you are right," Billy said while scratching the back of his head. "All right, let's do some special training."

　　 Billy wondered if the fact that he granted some skills to his children was the cause of that. They had too much energy, after all. Also, since their parents only worked and trained when they weren't with them, perhaps they decided to copy them…
