Chapter 435 Descendant (4)
Billy's earth magic had leveled up a lot lately, so it was time to check what he could do with it. First of all, he created some Earth gauntlets, and while making it as hard as possible, he used Earth Transformation. He didn't hold back with the mana used, so it quickly became iron and, after that, turned into copper and then silver. Billy was pretty sure that iron was supposed to be sturdier than copper and silver. Still, he noticed that the status of the gloves had increased. Nevertheless, he couldn't make the silver gauntlets evolve more than that. It was a pity, but it was expected.
Silver Gauntlets Lv 10
STR + 50, SPE + 50
Durability: 100/100
Skill points: 50
Billy also made that level up a bit more in order to increase the endurance. It was the wrong item per se, and it looked pretty cool, but since it was just a prototype that he was going to lend, it was fine.
"Can't you add some interesting effects?" Icarus asked.
"I can, but I won't," Billy said. "Not for free anyway."
"Cheapskate," Icarus said.
"Screw you, dumbass," Billy said. "I have come to help you, and I am away from my family for many weeks, don't demand any more than that unless you want an ass-kicking."
"I guess you are right, well, not bad for an item that you made so fast," Icarus said.
"It is only a loan," Billy said. "Anyway, I am going to assume my position."
Lucyna looked at the gloves, and they looked pretty valuable. It was kind of amazing that Billy could actually produce silver… even though it cost a lot of mana.
"... Billy has a family?" Lucyna asked. "Like parents and siblings?"
"He has both of his parents, a grandmother, and two siblings, but he also has two wives and two kids," Icarus said. "Don't say anything suspicious about them. That is a touchy subject for him."
"So, he is fooling the people of this world and even two innocent girls…" Lucyna said.
"As far as I know, they are older than him, and they are the ones who showed interest first," Icarus said. "You decided to leave your last few years for revenge. Do you think that you can judge someone like him for his choices?"
Lucyna couldn't answer that. As long as he isn't committing any crimes, no one could judge him. Lucyna also is hiding her identity from others she cares about, so she could understand that despite that, she also wants to live an everyday life once she gets her revenge. In any case, she picked a weird time to think about that. The mission was about to get difficult, so she had to keep her focus.
When Billy reached the city, he frowned because he didn't notice that it was walled due to the darkness of the night. He also could sense many soldiers on guard duty. Taking them out would take too long, so he used the same tactic as before. He used Mind Control and made them attack others. They easily killed their nearby allies since they attacked them from behind, and thus they began to move and attack other soldiers. After that, Billy began to move toward the other parts of the walls.
Eventually, the whole city was in chaos due to the sudden attacks of the soldiers brainwashed by Billy. At least they weren't attacking civilians, so things were a bit under control. In any case, the confusion was big enough for Billy to find the stables and the messengers post with few guards.
"Maybe I should learn how to put others to sleep… It will be a lot easier to create havoc and blame others for this type of incident without leaving too many traces behind," Billy thought while he was sealing the rooms where the ravens were with Earth magic in order to make them suffocate.
As for the horses, Billy didn't know what he could do aside from killing them. The number of stables was pretty high, and they were far away from each other. He wondered why he was hesitating when he had already killed the ravens… It was probably because they were bigger, vegetarian, and calm animals… making a tunnel out of the city and making leave was one option. Still, Billy would waste a lot of mana. Controlling them with Mind control also would take too much mana with their numbers…
"Oh yeah… I can do that," Billy thought while smirking.
If the problem was mana, then Billy just had to recover it one way or the other. His solution would lead to the death of some horses, but he couldn't have his cake and eat it at the same time.
Billy used Mind Control on the horses and made them run in an enraged state toward the eastern gate, where the soldiers who had defeated his zombies were heading. They knew that something was wrong with the mines, after all. Thanks to that, those soldiers were attacked by the horses. Being stepped to death by those creatures was also possible since, just like humans, animals could also level, and they were naturally stronger with their daily work.
The first wave of horses didn't do much aside from surprising the soldiers, but the other ones sure made a mess out of things. The soldiers began to die, unable to react since they were being attacked from behind.

Billy helped Icarus a lot sooner than expected, to the point that Icarus still was waiting for his opponents. They took a lot of time to organize themselves, and they were wounded and even lost some of their men already. Things would become really easier for him…
In the meantime, Billy headed toward the warehouse and then frowned when he saw many blacksmith shops around it. The stock inside was low because people were already using it…
