Chapter 269 Preparations (6)
In the blink of an eye, the next month passed, and the second group of students that Billy's friends looked after finally graduated. Although they said that, their skills were just a bit above the ordinary soldier that never entered a dungeon.
Billy didn't like crowded parties, but in the end, his friends decided to hold some parties on the same day in their houses. So, around fourteen thousand teenagers visited Billy's house one night, and they made a lot of noise. At the same time, they talked and thanked Kate and Natalie for everything. Even the troublemakers did something with their attitude and grew up a little. There was already another talk about the next group that was going to be trained, many people across the state wanted to join it, but Jean said that the new applicants would have to wait at least six months because of Lily and Alexander's child. After all, she finally reached a point where any slightly hard exercise was out of the question.
During that time, Gilles and his people also began to get used to life in the capital, but it seemed that the work was finally getting them. Spending the day pulling carts filled with dirt was rather exhausting… Even Gilles looked like he was about to give up. He lived the life of a martial artist until now, so he was finding it boring and repetitive the life of a normal worker.
"The income decreased considerably now that only a few people are using my dungeon. Some people decided to sign up to work there, but…" Billy thought while he was seeing his fortune decreasing in amount.

Billy's status, on the other hand, was improving quite a bit… His earth magic was leagues beyond everything else, so it seemed that it would become his main element. Still, he didn't find an excellent way to combine that and his melee skills yet. In any case, while he was making them work for the same of saving time in the future, Billy will have to make some of Gilles' friends to do something more profitable.
"Billy, we are going to visit Lily now. What are you going to do?" Kate appeared and then asked.

While Jean introduced them to a good doctor, and he said that everything was fine with Lily and the baby, Billy still visited Lily every week and used Check Upon her and the kid to confirm things. Fortunately, things looked fine when Billy used the skill. Everyone looked alleviated after Billy's positive response. Still, Natalie and Kate looked a bit troubled.
"You two don't have to worry. Your turn will eventually come," Lily said.
It seemed that they were worried about the fact that there was no sign of pregnancy with them. They do that with Billy pretty often, only skipping when they were having their periods, so it seemed that something was wrong… However, Billy knew that sometimes women who are too physically active have a hard time getting pregnant. In any case, they won't have to work for a while, so that might be a good chance for them. Still, Billy wondered if it was really time for him to become a father when there was a madwoman out there brainwashing people and that knew his secret…
Worrying endlessly about things was a pain, and Billy at least wanted to ease the worries of his wives, so he had to work hard and forget about the other problems.
"By the way, Billy, are you planning to connect your tunnels with our hometown?" Alexander asked. "I was wondering if we could pay a visit to our parents after the baby is born."
"I wouldn't recommend making the trip so soon… The vehicle that I am working in is pretty stable, but the acceleration speed is a problem," Billy explained. "The tunnels won't be connected to our hometown for a while. My main goal is to connect to the dungeon towns because I will recover mana faster in those places."
There was also the fact that he could get stronger and level up his skills much faster as well in those places, but that was just a minor benefit considering how useful it would be to have a direct and secret route to those places.
Aside from drinking the juice of the Edish fruits, Billy didn't know what more he could do to make that more concentrated. Still, Billy's work began to advance quite nicely. He guesses that around the time Lily was about to give birth, he will have completed the tunnel to the fire dungeon town, which was called: Wild winds dungeon town, the place that Gustav controlled. However, they began to hear that women and children were being forcefully trained in Toles and Neles state around the same time.
