Chapter 257 - Guild Master (3)

The trip was supposed to last two weeks, but since some kids were falling behind due to their lack of physical strength, they had to slow down the pace, so they will probably need three weeks to reach their destination. While Billy couldn't use that much free time to forge items, he could use it to practice with his new weapons.

"Speaking of weapons, I wonder if I should make shurikens… It has been a while since I used Power Throw, and that skill is quite good," Billy thought.

Billy's earth manipulation has been leveling up well. Even Earth Transformation was leveling up, and the cost of creating things decreased. So, eventually, he would be able to make them. While he could use the magic crossbow to cause damage, he couldn't only rely on long-ranged magic attacks. Having some physical ones at decent levels was also good. Nevertheless, that was a problem for the future.

"Use every moment of rest to use Meditation. Little by little, your magic powers will improve by doing so," Kate said to her students as soon as they stopped for lunch break. "Magic isn't different like your physical strength. You can only improve it if you train daily. Try to become stronger than you were yesterday, and you will reach your goals."

Kate looked quite serious while she was saying those words. However, Billy was only thinking how sexy she would look with triangle glasses. She also would look very good in the formal clothes of a teacher or secretary. Speaking of which, Billy noticed that her wind Manipulation had already surpassed his, and yet, she wasn't even trying to learn Wind Transformation. Billy wondered if she feared lightning… Whenever he practices that, she is never around.

In any case, while Billy was checking his friends, he noticed many eyes on him. When Natalie noticed that some of her students were losing their focus, she smacked them in the head. It seemed that they were quite curious of him, and while he had already learned that, Billy thought that they would feel more fearful than admired.

"Billy, you are bothering us," Natalie said. "Can you leave us now?"

"Well, my bad," Billy said.

Natalie's words hurt a bit, but Billy forgot about it since she didn't fool around when she was working. In any case, she began to hear murmurs of admiration. It seemed that scolding Billy made her evaluation went up by more than a few levels. Billy was fine with that. He was basically always being bossed around by those two, after all. In any case, he couldn't see any other lessons without bothering them, so Billy moved away and saw himself bored out of his mind.

"I suppose I will meditate as well…" Billy thought. "There is nothing to do, and I am not sleepy to take a nap here."

Billy didn't have to meditate since his mana was already recovering insanely fast due to his Spiritual Core. However, he still could clear his head and then focus on coming up with new ideas. He didn't have any, though. At least when it comes to skills…

Over the course of the new few weeks, Billy saw the progress of many students up close. Some were more talented than the others since they were born with more mana for whatever reason. Thanks to that, they could grow and obtain even more even without doing any special training. It was weird, though. Billy wasn't born with latent mana… Probably because his parents were warriors. Nevertheless, having some latent mana was good, but it wouldn't affect things too much…

In any case, over the course of those three weeks, the best students could create Earth pillars as tall as them when they started the journey, but now they could make ones that were three times taller. Regardless, they finally reached the dungeon town, but they only stayed there for a day since the place didn't have rooms for more than three thousand soldiers. So, they quickly moved after spending a day camping outside the city. Billy's friends led them to the areas they were going to work in.

"My group will come first, so I will be looking forward to it," Lily said. "We will be back in one week."

They had decided on one order, and each group would stay in the dungeon town for two weeks. By then, Billy will probably have finished dealing with the things in the guild. Since they were too shy, Billy couldn't expect a goodbye kiss from his wives, so he gave them one on the cheek.

Billy was immediately recognized when he entered the dungeon town, but no one tried to approach him. While most of the people there had connections to the guild, only the members of the guild actually worked for him. Nevertheless, when he entered the guild, he saw the receptionist, who was a big boobed and black-haired woman, the guards, and the workers that helped on doing miscellaneous tasks around the guild. They greeted Billy, but they looked fairly nervous. Were they afraid that they were going to lose their job if they messed up?

"No need to get so tense. I am not planning to take any chances for the time being with your work," Billy said. "Keep doing the usual, and you will be fine."

Since most of them were in the guild, Billy assumed that no one adventurer had planned to use the dungeon that day. Some guards must be guarding the dungeon anyway. Still, only for show, since no one was crazy enough to enter the dungeon without asking for the guild master, not to mention, the current guild master was Billy, who had some crazy rumors…

Nevertheless, Billy decided to check the warehouse of the guild, and he confirmed that the amount of pelt and leather was really small, so the adventurers were taking it easy. He probably won't earn much that month, so he will have to work hard to compensate for that.. Still, before that, he had things to do.
