Sei pondered about that… he still wasn't one hundred percent comfortable around Billy. Still, considering that he could do what five hundred of his men couldn't, his opinion wasn't something that he could ignore. In any case, Billy alone had already finished cleaning the area in a fifty-meter radius south of their wall, and he was planning to keep getting rid of the snow and ice, so he had to make his decision now.
"...Very well, I will deploy some of the soldiers to work on that as soon as possible," Sei said after much hesitation.
"I can understand your hesitation, but you should eventually allocate more of them to help," Billy said. "I am planning to help whenever possible since my goal is to deal with the titan before the situation can get worse."
In the end, Billy could only show that he was truly on their side with his actions. Words wouldn't be enough given the circumstances. With that in mind, Billy used his earth magic to create the basic layout of the holes where they were going to put the bodies. He also made some stairs to help everyone go up and down. Thanks to that, the soldiers felt even more wary of him since it seemed that he could kill them with his weird magic. They had no idea that just moving a few steps away from him wouldn't be enough. Everyone in his field of vision could be attacked. Even those behind him could be attacked since they had presences.
Once that was done, Billy resumed his fighting and began to explore the head of the ice golems. That kind of creature truly was troublesome since it couldn't disappear like his summons, but that was probably because they were the offspring of the titan. They had been created to have that kind of trait…
Regardless, soon Sei came to realize that Billy was right, and he would need more hands to bury the ice golems. When he sent a group to get the right tools for the job, Billy had already created a pile of corpses, and they only had made five in three days…
Billy nodded to himself in satisfaction when he saw the soldiers digging. Since they were trained and the people of that world were a lot stronger than regular humans, they could work many times faster than usual. Still, for a single person to dig a hole deep enough to fit a golem, they would need ten minutes. In ten minutes, Billy had already killed 150 of those creatures…
"Their spawning rate is two and half times faster than of the fire golems… if the ice titan destroys this state and goes to hibernate again, when he wakes up, its minions will be unstopable," Billy thought.
Even Billy couldn't see himself making progress if they began to spawn faster than one every four seconds… he had to sleep, after all. All his progress would disappear once that happens. As if that wasn't troublesome enough, he was worried about his wives… they would be facing the same odds.
"Shit… whoever created these fuckers, they will receive more than a single punch from me," Billy thought while clenching his teeth.
While he was eliminating the Golems, Billy also began to think about what else he could do to speed up that mission. The soldiers of that city still were wary of him, so he couldn't count on them all that much yet. He could always go fight up close and kill the monsters with a single swing of his glaive, but then he wouldn't be able to increase the holes where they were going to bury the monsters.
"Considering my special skills, I can make the Golems fight each other with Mind Control, or even summon those moles and slow down the ice golems," Billy thought. "It shouldn't be a problem to customize them to this environment with the mana I am getting right now."
Making them reach a level where they could kill the Golems in a one-on-one fight would be costly, but Billy also could use them to dig holes, so it was a good investment. Just to be safe, Billy, someone them underground. There was no reason to make the soldiers behind him know that he could do that.

Billy nodded to himself in satisfaction. While they were a bit weaker, they could make up for the difference using Earth Manipulation. Alongside Water Manipulation, they could easily make the monsters sink in a pool of mud, and their bodies would freeze the water, creating a trap for those creatures.
In any case, Billy created one at a time, but only sporadically, only once they were fifty or so, he sent them to work. That took him a few hours, so it was already lunchtime when he did that. While he had some rations and water in his backpack, Billy wanted something warm for that weather.
"Do you mind if I can leave this place for a while?" Billy asked. "I want to have lunch."
"... We can at least provide you the food," Sei said while frowning since Billy didn't seem the polite type. "We have some barracks behind the walls, you can use them. Although, it would be better if you don't venture too far in the city. I still am keeping a secret about your existence."
Billy didn't want to get involved in any more mess than he already was, but it seemed that they were chasing his ass. In any case, Billy could tell that the security of the city was divided according to the sides of the walls, so there were three commanders in that town, and the chances of one of them trying to get on his way might be big…
