Chapter 491 Closure (9) After seeing all the attack patterns, Billy realized that he could see the best moments where he could attack the ice golem. While that was also possible in fights that had just started, the accuracy and was pretty low, and the chance of failure was high. In any case, with the diamond glaive, all strike, no matter from which angle, would kill the ice golem. So, Billy would need something else.
In the split of a second, Billy saw the usual movement pattern that the ice golem used to try to smash him with both arms. When the creature put the left leg backward, Billy grabbed his glaive, and when the monster joined both hands, the weapon cut its head in two. The blast of the attack had been so powerful and fast that it even split the rest of the body of the creature as well.
You learned Heroic Spearmanship.
Billy had that feeling when he saw the samurai fighting, and the feeling was confirmed when he saw them without wounds. Their fighting style was based on the movements of the enemy. When they show the smallest of the openings, they strike. It wasn't something based on their fighting style. They were just trained to be able to discern such moments and use them accordingly since that was a real proof of mastery. Billy tried to do that many times, but not consciously. So, perhaps that was why he never learned the skill. Still, the trip to the samurai state was worth it, thanks to that. Although there was another skill that he could learn, he will have to skip that since his friends still were facing another titan. He had to join them as soon as possible.
"I am getting sidetracked… I have to deal with that thing as fast as possible," Billy said.
While he got a new weapon in the next fight, and he certainly will need it, nothing of that will matter unless he gets rid of that cyclone that protects the titan. The wind would only make him freeze faster, and he couldn't afford to fight such a beast when there was a time clock on his neck.
"I am getting strong pretty fast and the people from here are also getting strong as well, but we can't rely on that alone, we need another card," Billy thought.
As the time passed and Billy advanced, he considered what he could do. Making Sei convince the other commands to come and help was one of them. Otherwise, they won't take any credit when the situation is solved. That kind of people wanted fame more than anything, after all. So, luring them would be relatively easy. Billy also could make some creatures that would slowly but surely get rid of the snow, ice, and even the wind of the cyclone, but that would be time-consuming. After all, it would be crazy to think that Billy could summon creatures that could overpower the ice titan.
The last idea that Billy had was a bit crazy, but it also seemed the best way to stop the snow cyclone all at once without damaging the state. It was also risky since it would leave him zero mana, but it was risky that he was prepared for.
"Well, let's see if Sei can help with the first option," Billy thought.
In the end, Billy waited for a few hours since Sei was resting, but once he showed up, Billy called him and told him about the First plan.
"... it isn't impossible," Sei said. "However, they probably can't see that cyclone disappearing. So, they think that we won't achieve much."
"So, we need to lure then with even more in order to cooperate with us," Billy said.
"I think that some of them will try to approach you in a few days once we reach the enemy's territory," Sei said. "However, that place is impossible to cross."
Billy could see why… it was even colder. The winds were too strong, the visibility was terrible, and the golems were there. Lastly, there was the wall that was the cyclone… It was no wonder the samurai were just defending. Defeating the ice titan wasn't possible if they couldn't even attack it. In the end, Billy had to put plan three into motion instead of starting from the beginning with the first one.
"Let's just work like usual for today, tomorrow I will try something that will motivate your people a little more," Billy said.
For obvious reasons, Sei didn't like those words. It was hard to say that he had total faith in Billy after working with him for a full day, and it was understandable. Still, he felt that way because Billy operated in a very different manner than ordinary people.
It has been a while since he did that, but Billy ended up using a lot of his status points on Magic again. He would need it to put that crazy plan into action and to make it work without causing a disaster…

"I guess there isn't many skill that I can learn from the store that can help me tomorrow…" Billy though. "Well, it doesn't surprise me. Once I have some piece of mind, I should stop trying to learn basic elemental magic and go for something more conceptual. It is starting to feel a little limiting, after all."
