Chapter 629 Counterattack (2)

Billy didn't waste time doing that, and the skills of those guys never showed any signs of having those effects, so it was weird that they could do that. Billy knew that the summoner could use the power and some of the energy his summoned monsters had, but that was entirely different.

"Anyway, my friends will be able to protect the continent and defeat those guys, not to worry," Billy said. "We need to focus on what we can do right now."

"My army will be ready to move in two days," Meryl said.

"What about your skeletons?" Billy asked.

"The ordinary ones can be used, but the others will stay behind as last line of defense," Meryl replied.

Billy sighed. Not using the undead summoner and manipulator was a massive waste… Still, that was her choice, and she wanted to protect her people no matter what. What she didn't know, or perhaps she knew and was ignoring it, was the fact that they were going to die if the main group losses. Neverthless, that was her choice and the preparations she came up with before the big battle. That group didn't have a leader, so they could do what they wanted without criticizing each other. It was probably the only way for them to cooperate and show some results.

"All right, I will deal with his magic cannon and then you will your army to attack them," Billy said. "My golems will also help, but I will head straight into the dungeon."

"The enemy might have some traps waiting for us," Icarus said.

"My drones will catch those," Billy said.

"We don't know how big the dungeon is, but it might be a good idea to take some time and strengthen ourselves before facing the enemy," Lucyna said. "I think it will be more efficiency if we split and hunt for a week."

"He has been there for two years, it is clear that he can hunt more monsters instead of waiting for them to spawn in the last floor," Billy said. "We will only give him more time to get even stronger. At this point in time, it wouldn't surprise me if he had obtained all the skills of the last tier and upgraded them to reach the levels of the originals."

"You have a point, but while he will gain more experience, his level must be so high that he needs a lot more than us to level up," Meryl said. "If he has mastered all those skills, then his growth will he limited, while ours won't. This will decrease the difference of power between us."

Billy sighed again. He knew all too well the difference between cautious and cowardice, and he tended to walk on that fine line between them. However, those guys couldn't understand that their caution was almost stupid… Instead of getting closer to the enemy in terms of power, they would only give him time to compensate for that growth in many ways.

"I wonder if it won't be a better idea if we just do our own things this time," Billy said. "I really don't want to stay inside this dungeon for a month."

"Billy… You can't leave and enter an alliance only when it is convenient for you," Lucyna said.

"I think you are wrong, people only enter alliances when it is convenient for them," Billy said. "You guys are taking this way too easily… You are being cautious, but your sense of danger is low. Truth to be told, I only care about my friends since I am not a hero. However, if I can avoid someone's death without risking my own, I would try to give a hand. My friends are protecting the people, but they can only do so much, they can't guard the whole continent all the time and for so long. The more we take our time here, the more people die. We are letting someone like us destroy this world."

The other stayed for a while after hearing that the whole reason for the alliance was to stop people like them from misusing their powers. They didn't want to be hunted because of that and because they didn't want the next generation of reincarnates to be hunted as soon as they were born.

"... Perhaps I am too much on edge," Billy said after a long sigh. "The mission didn't even start and I already set a time limit… Let's do things your way for the time being and then I will see what will happen."

The others nodded, and then Billy went to the dungeon. It would be better If he waited for the two days and then surprised the maker with everything they had in store.

Since the tyrant's dungeon was going to be left alone for a while, Billy decided to summon his spiders at several posts. He used the mana he obtained to summon even more… That wasn't the usual way he would operate, but Billy truly didn't want to spend a whole month away from home, so he decided to compromise.

Although Billy wanted to keep their existence a secret, Billy showed the others the tunnels that he had already made toward the enemy's base. He sealed the other part that was connected to the human continent. Still, he was pretty sure that the others knew that he made an underwater tunnel to make his Golems cross the ocean… Regardless, if they become a problem with that kind of information, Billy will have to worry about them only after the fight with the maker, and since he wasn't planning to let them get his powers, they will be insane if they try to pick a fight with him.

The skill Mana Cannon obtained 300 experience points.

The skill Mana Cannon obtained 300 experience points.

The skill Mana Cannon obtained 300 experience points.

…

In any case, while Billy waited for the preparations to be completed, he spent some extra time stealing experience from the tyrants.
