Until now, his mind was completely fine despite those powers, but Billy couldn't drop his guard. Uvish was going to return sooner or later, and his mind perhaps won't be able to resist, so he needed to find a solution to those problems. Perhaps he should make more relics with his blood, but it would be like running away from a problem instead of solving it.
"Well, let's think about that while we visit the others," Billy said. "Most likely, that asshole won't come back so soon or without a backup plan."
Billy told his wives that he was going to visit his friends and help with repairing caused by the attacks, and while they wanted to go as well, they knew that their home needed to be well-guarded more than ever.
First of all, Billy visited the temple city since it was the place most of his friends were and the place that suffered most of the damage. He was glad to see that things were completely peaceful there and the reconstruction was going well.
"Hey, look who is finally awake," Drew said when he saw his son showing up, and then he proceeded to hit his back after a powerful hug. "You showed us some crazy things a week ago. How are you feeling."
"Fine, since I can still stand after this assassination technique that you call a hug," Billy replied. "How are you, dad? Did you get injured during the fight? The hydras were pretty tough."
"I am fine. I just wished that I could have punched that guy in the face once," Drew said. "I will show you where your mother is. Samuel and Samara already moved to explore the dungeons nearby since they thought that this was a boring job."
"Well, dungeons needed to be cleared in one way or the other," Billy said.
Billy found his mother and many others with her. Scan, Ilfa, Beatrice, Felipe… Billy greeted them and began to work with them. He didn't have all the time in the world, after all.
"So, it isn't over…" Felipe said. "I suppose we will need to keep preparing ourselves for future battles."
"The limits of our reality are expanding, and we don't have time to stop and learn with all that…" Beatrice said. "We also need to strengthen our forces. Now that people know that people summoning hydras exist, things won't be the same as before."
"Well, we will give you a hand with that," Billy said. "My friends and I are going to travel around and teach people some useful techniques. I wanted to avoid spreading too much of that knowledge. Still, since we will be busy with other enemies, people here won't have the time to wage war against each other."
"You avoided that until now, so I guess things are really difficult. Perhaps we should do the same," Drew said while looking at Anna.
"Yes, thanks to Billy's help, we are way above the ordinary soldier and adventurer in terms of strength," Camilla said. "When it comes to techniques, the difference is even more clear."
That wasn't boasting, it was a fact, and Camila wasn't the type to boast anyway, so the others nodded. Most people in the world avoided sharing the knowledge of their techniques, but that also made them weaker since they didn't do that, and the others didn't feel the same. Billy could barely imagine what an army of barbarians could do once they learn brute strength… it was something that he was looking forward to seeing it.
After Billy helped everyone there with his magic, he went around repairing some cities while heading South. He wanted to talk with Sei as well… it was really useful to have Acceleration Manipulation… thanks to that, he could cross the continent in a couple of minutes… he would leave a trail of burned grass behind, though.
Although he avoided that, Sei wanted to introduce Billy to the royal family of his state again… thanks to that, he didn't stay there for too long. He didn't want to give him the chance to bump into them in the streets by accident. While Billy owed him a few favors, he wanted to avoid getting involved in politics no matter what.
After that, Billy went to check things in the demi-human continent. A lot of people would probably lose their minds once they realize that their demi-god had been killed, so some direct and firm actions were necessary. Moreover, they also had to deal with the clones that Zenis left behind. Much to Billy's surprise, things didn't seem that chaotic when he found the first few new camps. He saw some people wandering alone away from those places, but they didn't look that suspicious.
"Hey, you woke up," Icarus said when he saw Billy approaching.
"I lost the count of how many times I heard that," Billy said. "Anyway, where are the others? We need to talk about what I learned during the fight."
"I will call them, but are you fine?" Icarus asked. "Your aura didn't change, but you got some new innate skills… I suppose that is good since your big-boobed wife had good instincts."
"Oh? You have paid attention to some areas of her body, but not to her name…" Billy said. "Are you picking a fight with me? I am feeling pretty good, so stretching my body will be pretty refreshing."
"You can't blame me for not memorizing anyone's names in that kind of situation," Icarus said. "Anyway, the result of the fight will be clear, so it is a waste of time… Besides, we will only destroy the environment for no good reason."
"With that kind of attitude, Lucyna will never pay attention to you," Billy said.
"How much I have fallen… I am listening to love advice from someone so much younger than me…" Icarus said and then sighed.
"Stop sighing all the fricking time…" Billy said and then sighed. "That is contagious, I guess."
