Chapter 570 Understanding (2)

"I see… you found her and reach an agreement to get the relics back," Kate asked. "She seems like someone reasonable, but what do you think of her? I think she agreed to this pretty fast knowing that she doesn't know you."

As soon as he returned home, Billy gave his wives the news. Now it was getting troublesome to keep Icarus and Lucyna's existence hidden, but it couldn't be helped since Billy didn't want to involve them in a war caused by people like him.

"She probably wants to test how we can help her for the time being," Billy replied. "Her people and she don't seem to be in a good spot… since she didn't use the relics to fight against the most troublesome enemy yet. Regardless, at least I think she doesn't have plans of conquering that whole continent."

"Are we going to stay on standby for even longer?" Natalie asked.

"You should feel thankful for that…" Billy said and pulled her ears a little bit. "It is a pain to come and go to that place all the time. In any case, I doubt that this war will end in that continent, so you truly need to keep your guard up."

"Well, unlike you who spend most of your free time in the basement, we are training every day," Natalie said. "Seeing Hector and Christina growing and getting better when they train is also fun, so it is fine."

Billy got a bit surprised when he heard that, Natalie had truly grown. Or perhaps he was the wrong one for thinking that she always would be that reckless and wild even after many years and becoming a mother.

"Do you have any idea of what to do next?" Sarah asked.

"I don't have an army on my own and the most at risk are her people, so we will plan things and see what is best for her territory the next time we meet," Billy replied. "Nothing major will happen, for the time being, so you don't have to worry."

"When you say that, it only makes me worry more…" Sarah said.

Billy was pretty bad at hiding things and his wives weren't stupid, so it couldn't be helped that they would feel that way. Still, until something out of the norm happens like Billy returning late, wounded, or with his armor in pieces, they won't be able to confirm if that was just their worrying without a reason or a real premonition.

In any case, Billy had the remaining part of that day and the next one as a day off to enjoy with his family and he did exactly that. However, on the day after that one, he woke up earlier than usual to attack some trusters on the leg parts of his armor, he had that idea on the previous day and he decided to implement it as soon as possible to decrease the time of the travels.

"I guess I need to put those on the other armors as well…" Billy thought.

While Billy was working on that and watching things on the demi-humans continent as well, he suddenly felt a slight tremor coming from nearby… he gulped when he recalled that it has been a while since he left the golems growing. He said to his wives that he didn't have an army of his own, but those guys could be useful in a war.

"I should make them reach the coast using the submarine tunnel," Billy thought. "They don't need to eat or anything, so they can cross the ocean on their own… It will take a while, but I should leave them on standby there."

Actually, Billy had a better idea… since they could use Earth Manipulation, they could make a tunnel that would reach the other continent… again, it would take a while, but if they worked together, it would save time in the long run. Considering that they were multiplying themselves, their speed would increase eventually.

"I will have to oversee the beginning of the tunnel, but eventually things will happen by themselves…" Billy thought.

Billy never thought that he would be able to use the golems like that, so he decided to summon more of them. The more the merrier… While Billy worked on that and taught Christina and Hector how to train, that week passed in the blink of an eye, and it was finally time to meet Meryl.

Just like before, Billy arrived earlier and at night in order to hide his armor. After that, he headed to the mountain that she had mentioned. There was a chance that she might have prepared an ambush there, so he didn't drop his guard while he approached. However, he didn't sense any presence there. Even the monsters of that area had been hunted until their extermination. After a couple of hours, Meryl found Billy standing at the top of that mountain and found him fiddling with a magic core.

"You have come awfully earlier, did you check the area for traps?" Meryl asked.

"Yes, but I didn't waste much time doing it, so it is fine," Billy replied.

"You should at least try to think before answering that, still, I appreciate your honesty," Meryl said and then took two relics from the bag she was carrying, one was a katana and the other was a shield. "Quite a shape for relics, don't you think?"

"You think so? You know about the existence of the samurai and Galatea followers, so why is it surprising?" Billy asked.

"Normally people like us would try not to stand out creating things from our worlds, but it seems the other generations didn't worry about that," Meryl explained.
