Chapter 727 Magic Suit (2)
Chapter 727 Magic Suit (2)
While Svan was working on that, Billy also went to talk with Felipe about the plan; naturally, he agreed since his state was also suffering from those issues. The only problem was mobility… it would take a while to make all the chosen troops to move. To help with that, Billy used his frost wyvern… he could have used his own speed to deal with that, but he had to make the equipment for everyone, and that cost him quite a bit of mana.
Regardless, Billy made some gauntlets for the barbarians since they knew how to fight with their fists, and those would be more useful than axes inside dungeons. As for Galatea followers, Billy made crossbows that could fire electric bolts and paralyze the enemies. Those had cores on themselves in order to make the users focus solely on healing their allies.
Doing all that took Billy three days, but he didn’t find many reports of adventurers being killed once he got home. Uvish still was doing his nasty job, but his plan still was working well.
“Problems everywhere?” Kate asked when Billy returned home.
“Yeah, kind of…” Billy sighed and then hugged her before groping his wife’s ass a bit since no one was looking. “Uvish is a real piece of shit, but I think things are going to work better now. In any case, I finished the armor so that I could make copies for everyone. Unfortunately, customizing isn’t an option, but since everything is made of mana, it won’t hinder any parts of your body.”
“By the way, Billy,” Kate said. “Did you forget that your siblings are inside the dungeon? Uvish is targetting those places now, right?”
“They are strong enough to fend off those creatures,” Billy said. “Besides, they aren’t alone in that dungeon.”
Blitz wasn’t at home, and Billy sent the annoying bird to keep watch on his siblings. The bird was as annoying as it was reliable, after all. In any case, he confirmed their safety by using the mirror connected to the lens on Blitz’s eye.
“The armors are ready now. You can return,” Billy said.
Samuel and Samara were inside the dungeon and frowned when they heard that, but at least they followed Billy’s voice and began to leave the place. Everyone would need to get used to those, so some training was necessary. Still, Billy had to think how they could use it without letting Uvish see them in action.
“I am going to take the day off. Otherwise, I am going to overwork to death…” Billy said and then sighed. “I also need to talk with Jean about our next destinations.”
“We already did that while you were away,” Sarah said when she suddenly showed up. “Jean thinks that going north this time will be our best shot. Aura and her people are trying to spread the things that they learned regarding magic, but they can only do so much. Natalie is working on the details of the next trip to those locations. I never knew that she was good at organizing things,”
“She said that she wanted to keep moving her body since she gets restless with so many days off,” Kate said.
“I guess I will play with the kids, then,” Billy said. “Thank you, my beloved wives. What would I do without you all?”
“You would be absolutely hopeless, of course,” Kate replied.
Billy went to see his kids and call them to play, only to find them preparing themselves for another day of training. He couldn’t complain much since his youth had been pretty much like that… Still, times were different, and he had been working hard to make sure that they would have a peaceful life…
“Helen, don’t abandon me like your older sister and brother,” Billy said and then fell to his knees to hug her.
“Papa, we need to train hard to become as strong and cool as you,” Helen said.
“Noooooo… You need to be cute and pretty like your mothers,” Billy said while letting out a pathetic voice. “These muscles are worthless… Let’s play all day. Working hard is for… Ah, I can’t say it…”
Saying that working hard is for losers would be the same as going against pretty much everything Billy stood for. He couldn’t tell his children something like that. Still, to think that they would inherit his training junkie blood.
“Ha… Might as well help you all with that,” Billy said after a long sigh.
While he watched his kids training, Billy wondered if he should make the armors for his kids as well. Naturally, he won’t make them fight his enemies, but it would be good for Protection. Unfortunately, that also would give them the chance to become reckless given a chance…
When he tried to make copies of the cores for the others, Billy confirmed that each of them would need at least five hundred thousand mana points… It was an insane amount of mana, but it couldn’t be helped considering its effects.
In any case, Billy made the ones for his wives on the first day, but he waited until everyone got reunited to give them. That happened three days later… During that short window of time, Billy also thought about what he could do to prevent Uvish from seeing things around him and his friends. He did several tests, but he failed all of them…
“I suppose I need to create a magic shield that can reflect or absorb the mana of that kind of spell…” Billy rubbed his chin thoughtfully. “My personal domain seems like a good example, but…”
Mental Armor seemed like the best option to take the logic of since it could work against weird such skills as Appraisal and Analyze. Still, since that skill consumed mana when it was activated, Billy couldn’t use more mana to make it stronger. He had two options, make it level up and then learn the next evolution naturally or try to learn by himself… Unfortunately, Billy was crazy enough to try both methods.
