"Wow, the previous armor should have been crazy considering that you all think this needs improvement," Samuel said. "This kind of item is hundreds of times better than anything I have found."
"I think the sisters would need weapons like crossbows better than the current items to work well with this one," Samara said.
Billy made sure to write down the complaints, but first of all, he would use the ideas that he had.
As soon as they returned home, Billy began to work on the core. First of all, he began to make several smaller ones that would create other layers that would grant him and his friends' Strength Support, Speed Support, Endurance Support, Magic Support, and Dexterity Support. That would help everyone, but mostly ranged fighters of the group. Still, soon enough realized that the whole thing would need to become bigger to add more effects.
The current shape was of an oval sphere. However, perhaps he would make something like a large amulet… still. Billy could easily imagine the whole thing eventually becoming like a chest plate or something. It would be nice if he could add as many useful effects as he wanted. Still, that would take time.
"Aside from the support skills, what else should I add…" Billy rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "I guess Regen that activates upon impact will be a good idea… At the same level as the other cores, I am pretty sure it will prevent everyone from getting too hurt to the point where they will have to stop fighting due to the damage… I wonder if this won't cause more suffering to us in the long run."
Just when Billy was thinking about that, he saw some messages coming from his spies and Icarus. Apparently, they saw something in the sky approaching… That couldn't be a good thing.
"Uvish truly is trying to keep me busy," Billy said and then went to check the telescope that he installed in his garden.
It didn't take long for Billy to find the planet. Since the demi-human continent and the spies that saw the approach were on the opposite sides of the world, he just had to calculate the middle route between them.
Billy found a red and dark world approaching. It would make sense that those demonic-looking beings came from there, and it seemed like a harsh place. Still, Billy couldn't help but frown. There were a lot of red-like flames, but there wasn't much smoke in the atmosphere…
"I also need to think of a way to take away the control of the flow of this war from that asshole's hands," Billy thought. "Just reacting to his actions is a massive headache since it is so annoying…"
Regardless, Billy began to think about what they should do, but Icarus began to annoy him with his messages. He wanted to hear his opinions as well, but that could be done later. They had at least six hours to prepare for the attack.
"Hey, Uvish, I know that you are observing me," Billy said. "Stop being a bitch, and let's solve this with you against me. This would make things a lot easier for you, right? Since you are scared of all of us."
Billy didn't hear a reply, but he didn't let that get the better of him. Fighting the enemies on their terrain might be their best option again. Still, Uvish was probably prepared for that and had some traps laid around.
"Well, well… The two players can play this game," Billy said and then used Telepathy to talk with Icarus, Lucyna, and Meryl. "I am going to attack that world from a distance. You guys should keep working on defending things here."
"What do you have in mind, Billy?" Icarus asked.
"How about making the enemies have a taste of their own medicine?" Billy asked.
"That seems like something you would do and say, but you need to give us more details," Icarus said.
"The last time, we had to work hard and barely succeeded," Meryl said. "We need a plan B in case yours fail."
"I will leave that to you, then; I will have preparations to make and not much mana available," Billy said and then prepared to leave when he saw his wives approaching.
"Hold your horses, young man," Kate said. "Where do you think you are going?"
"It seems that the next wave of enemies is coming with their whole base. I am going to welcome then," Billy said. "Before you ask anything, I am not going to invade their world first, and I am going to attack from here. I can't say more without alerting the enemy."
"Are you sure that you won't get too far away?" Sarah asked.
"Yeah, you can check with the telescope," Billy said. "If I break my promise, then you can punish me as much as you want once I return."
"Don't do anything too insane this time," Natalie said.
"Yes, ma'am," Billy said, saluting before jumping with all his might.
While he was going up, the frost dragon eventually joined Billy, and then they headed toward the stratosphere. Once they left the planet, Billy made his dragon create an ice spear and then used its breath to increase its length and width.
"Here comes a big one, Uvish," Billy said. "Long and thick, just the way you like."
Billy made a hundred meters long ice spears spin, and then he used Telekinesis to fire them toward the enemy planet. There was no point in holding back when a new wave of enemies was coming from that place. Even if there were innocent people there, Billy couldn't be bothered about it, and it would be their fault for letting their leaders be fooled by Uvish.
The spear would take a while to reach the enemy's planet, but then Billy began to prepare for the next attack. However, he stopped when he noticed that something was off… with his personal telescope, he noticed that the enemy's planet was changing its course…
"How annoying…" Billy thought and then sighed.
Billy had to change his plans a bit. Instead of firing the spears right away, he decided to make a stock of them while he worked on other things. It would have been better if he could surprise them, but it was fine either way… he had another surprise in stock.
