I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 83 - Arranged Marriage (7)

At the end of that week, Kate has mastered Meditation and Zen, and just like Billy has expected, she easily learned Earth Manipulation… but Billy didn't learn how to control other people's mana. In any case, her condition had improved so much that before, she barely could stay awake for one or two hours before running out of steam, but now she could stay for six hours. Still, her Hp and Sp never were at the max.

"I knew it wouldn't be easy, but…" Billy furrowed his eyebrows. "This virus is quite something. Maybe my assumptions were wrong."

Billy asked his grandmother about diseases like that, and while she knew about them, she didn't know a treatment. After all, they were a warrior tribe. They usually die due to wounds, so her knowledge was centered around that. In any case, Kate had reached level twenty-five, and after increasing her endurance up to thirty, Billy realized that her physical endurance wasn't helping against the virus. That was why he was increasing her magic and speed to increase her physical capabilities and spiritual strength. Until now, he got zero results.

"I thought you would feel proud in making someone like me learn magic, but you are brooding a lot more than usual," Kate said.

"My siblings learned that when they were five, not even the kids of the elementalists learn magic that early… of course, I am not surprised with your progress," Billy said.

"... Thank you," Kate said. "I feel a lot better thanks to your visits. I never thought that just talking with other people would make me feel this much better."

"In that case, I will bring a noisy bunch tomorrow," Billy said.

If Billy couldn't improve the effects of medicines to make those cure her, then the only way was to make her body fight the virus. Once she obtains Recovery and Billy makes thatreach level five, the virus won't be powerful enough to take her down… or so the theory goes with its effects. If even that doesn't solve the issue… then Billy couldn't do anything.

"That being said, I really hope that this will work… I spent too much time and mana to make her level up," Billy thought.

In any case, it has been a week since everyone returned, and Billy has yet to meet with his friends since then. He had never done it before, but he decided to visit them and ask they could come to talk with Kate for one hour or two. From Billy's perspective, they were a noisy bunch, but most people think that his group of misfits was pretty lively.

"Visit the lord's mansion and his daughter?" Alexander asked while frowning. "I am not sure why you would want me to do that, but sure, I guess."

Alexander didn't look that hesitant because he knew that Billy wouldn't ask him to do something that would be unpleasant for him. The real problem was Lily and Natalie. They didn't do well in all those years while dealing with kids of other groups, and now that they have been accepted due to their strength and talent. Thanks to that, they also get carried away sometimes.

"Sure, why not?" Lily asked. "I heard that you are spending a lot of time with her… are you running out of topics of conversation? By the way, are you going to marry her or not?"

"I didn't decide yet…" Billy replied.

"You sure are slow," Lily said.

Lily's response was quite unexpected. Still, that made Billy worry since she was a bit of an airhead, and she might have ended up saying something rude. Things would become even more awkward if she mentioned the marriage.

"Why the heck should I go?" Natalie asked as if she had heard the most stupid thing in the world.

"I didn't think you were that afraid of strangers…" Billy frowned.

"I am not, but I don't have any reason to meet her," Natalie said.

"You are such a kid… Alexander and Lily are coming, show at my house at noon tomorrow if you change your mind," Billy said. "There is no point in being bashful or afraid since I already told her about you guys' lame points and your screw-ups."

Although she showed an incredibly annoying expression, Natalie still showed up the next day alongside the others. Along the way, he told them that they shouldn't bring any weird topics during the talk. He also mentioned a few things about Kate, but he kept quiet about her masks. In the end, it was up to her how she would interact with others, and some information might make things awkward.

When they entered Kate's room, they were left speechless. Although she had a sickly appearance, Kate was definitely the most beautiful woman they had seen. Even Natalie kept her eyes open for a while, which was something rare for her to do lately."

"... What is it?" Kate asked.

"They are being morons, don't mind them," Billy said.

In the beginning, things were awkward since no one knew what to say. While Kate got used to Billy, it was hard for her since those three didn't have a calm aura like Billy. They were terrible at hiding their surprise as well…

"... I heard that you three are quite famous warriors of your generation," Kate said. "Dad and Billy told me all about you guys."

"... Billy only told you the lame parts, right?" Natalie asked. "He told me that yesterday."

"While he indeed he talks amount about the parts where your three made some kind of mistake, he also mentioned that night when you captured the enemy Captain," Kate said. "Just imagining that scene of you defeating so many enemies and fighting soldiers who were stronger than you made my heart race.. With your skills and talent, I am sure you will become the leaders of your tribe someday."
