Chapter 385 Vengeance (1)
In the end, even though he wasn't slacking off on his training, Drew decided that he should go train inside the dungeons with Samuel and Samara. Since those three were going, Anna and Camilla were going too, to prevent problems from arising. They also feel the need to improve their skills lately, so that opportunity came at a good time. The twins might not like that much since they were at that age, though.
"Grandma, I learned something that can be very useful in your line of work," Billy said. "I want to teach you that, you will have to be careful of its use. I learned this from Galatea followers without letting them notice that."
"How did you know the skills that are basically their hidden secret without letting them notice?" Anna asked while frowning. "Well, it is you we are talking about, so I guess it makes sense."
"Since everyone is going to the dungeon, you can stay with us while I teach you the spells," Billy said. "When can I pick you all?"
"I think we should go on foot this time, let's consider this another family trip," Drew said. "We can also train along the way, so I think it is for the best."
"Is that so, well, okay," Billy said. "I will be waiting for you all there."
Billy went home and the first thing he did was to sleep on his bed. He was someone who liked his routine very much, so he could only truly relax by sleeping in his own bed while hugging his wives from behind. It was also pretty good to fall asleep while watching his kids' sleeping faces.
On the next day onward, Billy paid a visit to Jean and then gave his report. It seemed that Aura and Rosalie had informed him already about the withdrawal of the monsters from their borders, but they still kept their guard down.
"Since you went to that state, they had a lot fewer problems facing the monsters," Jean said. "Still, to think that another troublesome individual would appear so soon. It seems we are really living in a turbulent era."
"I tried to keep a low profile, but things eventually got too serious and I couldn't do that anymore," Billy said. "Still, even before that, the leaders of Tersaris state had already discovered where I came from, and I guess they knew my identity. They didn't seem like bad individuals, so they might try to contact you or the other leaders of the alliance sometime soon."
"Let's hope that they won't change after this incident," Jean said. "I sent some spies to the Cegia state, but I have yet to receive any message from them."
"I see…" Billy said.
Billy couldn't say that sending them was almost a waste of time since the summoner could sense the arrival of intruders thanks to his monsters. He actually could say that, but he couldn't explain how he knew that. There was also the matter with Icarus… It was better to keep it as a secret that he was working with someone like that now and then.

After talking with Jean, Billy went to solve minor issues with his workshop and with the work of his wives. After that, he went to check his status and began to think of what he should do to improve himself. Aside from his magic, he lost to those dragons in all aspects. If they were just a bit smarter, then he probably wouldn't have killed any of them even with his best magic attack. His parameters alone showed that he was ten times weaker than any dragon, but at least he learned a few things regarding them. Even though they had ten times his speed, they weren't ten times faster due to their massive size and weight.
"I think I will have to fight opponents of that level more often than I wanted, while that will make me stronger a lot faster, it will also bring a lot of troubles to my life… I need to prepare myself for that," Billy thought.
Looking at his skill list, Billy could tell that he was neglecting his physical ones quite a bit. While he couldn't create a reserve of stamina, as he could do with mana, Billy still could use Vigor to use them more often. Still, even with his daily training, he wasn't leveling them up much. The real issue was time, Billy didn't want to sacrifice his time with his family for more power, so he had to think smart about what he should do.
In the end, Billy decided to restart from the basics, using the same methods of training, while he added something else to his daily routine. In the end, it took Billy three days of constant thinking to come up with such an easy answer, he couldn't say that others were dumb since it took him so long to realize that. To improve his body to the next level, Billy decided to use weights.
