While everyone was fighting, Billy was watching, but he still got the experience points. He also got some mana, so he was quickly storing it in his reservoirs. He wished that he could turn that ability into a skill, but he had no idea how to do so… The system was weird sometimes.
"This is quite… Weird," Alexander said. "The monsters don't even have the chance to react."
While Alexander was complaining, Billy was helping the helpers get the scales of the chameleons. They had some red ones on their backs, and it was known that those also had a high elemental and physical resistance. So, putting them into defensive equipment was a good idea… Billy didn't notice that, but everyone had those scales in their armor aside from his party.
"You don't have to help, sir,"
"Just making sure that you can keep up with our moving pace, and I am not a sir," Billy said. "I mean, I kind of am, but you don't have to be so respectful."
"Do you think you can create a weapon that can replicate the same magic you just used?" Francis asked.
"I probably can… But you will never be able to use it on the same scope," Billy replied.
"I can see that magic is pretty useful… It is a pity that we don't have to learn it," Francis said.
"Putting that aside, as you can see, my plan went quite well, so do you want to do the same thing in the other parts of the dungeon?" Billy asked.
"I am fine with it," Francis said. "It will depend on the other guys, though."
The other party leaders also agreed with that. They had no reason to refuse sins; they were basically making a lot of money without risking their lives. So, they liked Billy's next proposal even more. They had to slow down on their pace in order for Billy to recover his mana. He asked for that because he could tell that the ice around as they proceeded was getting thicker and weaker, so it was a sign that his spell only reached around one-third of the seventh floor. However, since they were advancing by using the map of the other parties, the number of encounters was relatively small.
Once they reached a point where the ice was just cracking when the monsters emerged, Billy used his magic again. Some unfortunate monsters that emerged in front of him when he was doing that became completely ice statues… And when the helpers tried to get the scales, they saw those shattering just with a single touch. The idea of being hit by such an attack was quite dreadful, and the adventurers also had heard that Billy could fire lightning from his hands…
Things proceeded like that for a few hours, and then the group eventually found the entrance to the eighth floor. According to Francis, it usually takes twelve hours to cross that floor, even using the shortest route. Meanwhile, they did it in just seven… From Billy's perspective, that still was taking too long, though.
"We didn't find the entrance to the 9th floor, so this might take a while," Francis said. "Can you still keep using your mana?"
"No problem, I just need two hours," Billy replied. "My goal for this run is to find the next level no matter what before leaving."
According to Francis, they had mapped an area close to one fifty kilometers… Billy wondered how the heck the dungeons could be so large, even more so, it was just a single floor. That was insane… No wonder Billy needed to use his magic so many times.
Just as expected, the number of monsters increased at each battle, and their power also went up as well. Still, not enough for them to manage the cold. Still, Billy noticed that their movements were a lot better than before, and the Adventurers had to attack more times to deal with them.

"Man, how you guys can fight for days without taking a break…" Alexander said.
"We usually take breaks… But you didn't say anything," Francis frowned. "We assumed that Billy was calling the shots here."
"Where do you take breaks? Between the floors?" Billy asked.
"Yes," Francis nodded.
Billy asked while joking, but in the end, Francis took it as a serious question, and his answer also made sense. Billy wondered why never thought of that… Still, suppose they take a break now. In that case, the ice and the cold will eventually disperse, and Billy won't be able to recover any mana.
"Let's fight for a while longer before taking a break," Billy declared.
Francis had said that he considered Billy the lead of that expedition. Still, it seemed that the others decided to respect his voice as well. While they were uncooperative before, their behavior changed since Billy kept his word. Even while sharing the materials, they still could make quite the killing without the usual danger. In any case, they stopped to rest after a while, and the monsters actually left them alone…
"Resting is good, but… I miss my baths," Sarah said.
Billy was also missing one, but only those who reacted to Sarah's words and nodded where the other women of the group. Maybe Billy still had to learn a lot from being an Adventurer since Francis said that he went two weeks without cleaning himself because of that same dungeon.
