Chapter 763 Fourteen to go
The next few hours had been a real test of patience, but Billy endured since the rulers didn’t get too close to attacking the barrier. Also, because his friends managed to fight and defeat the enemies’ champions. Even though they were supposed to be at the level of the reincarnated at that world with their innate skills and other powers at a decent level.
At night, Billy talked with the leaders of the armies, and they told him about their total losses. They started the battle with around two hundred thousand people that could fight, and around thirty thousand died on the first day… the attack of the invisible enemies sure was a pain, even though Billy distributed magic items to help find them.
“There isn’t much more than you can do,” the death spirit said. “When Uvish had to deal with invasions of a single army, around the same amount of people died every day.”
It was weird to hear such words from the spirit of death of that world. Still, Billy decided to accept it and focus on his preparations. Once he deals with that, he will get rid of the rulers as fast as he can.
After enduring all that, the morning of the next day came, and Billy could tell that it was time to undo his clones. He decided to make one of them disappear at a time. Still, when he did that with the first and got all his experience and memories, he felt his body being ripped apart, and blood began to leave his pores. His eyes lost their focus due to all that suffering… that he got from making a single clone use Rage and Body Enhancement for several hours. In any case, Billy used Full Heal and Relief, but it had barely any effects.
The skill Rage has leveled up.
The skill Chi has leveled up.
The skill Body Enhancement has leveled up.
…
“One down, fourteen to go…” Billy said and then sighed.
Billy had one hell of an ordeal ahead of him, but he didn’t stop and soon made another clone disappear. It was better to endure all the pain already instead of delaying the inevitable. Billy was forced to stay on his knees for the most part of that process, enduring the hellish pain. That was the price he had to pay for accelerating his growth.
In the end, Blood Manipulation, Chi, Body Enhancement, and Rage reached level one thousand, but Billy was dizzy as he could be due to the blood loss. Making the blood return to his body probably wasn’t a good idea, so he went to take a shower, and then he ate some dragon hearts. He started to feel a lot better thanks to it. Before he could leave again, he saw his kids watching the battlefield from their living room window.
“Sorry, I tried to stop them, but they stayed awake in their room and watching things outside,” Anna said.
“It is fine, and it was the best choice, grandma,” Billy said. “They shouldn’t be alone while they watch that… hopefully, the next generations will recall this and understand what might happen to those who are blinded by power.”
Having adventures here and there was fun, but Billy truly wished that his kids could live a peaceful life. Still, too much peace weakens people’s bodies and minds…
In any case, Billy left the house and then prepared to put the second part of his plan into motion. He wished that the technique that he had envisioned wouldn’t need Blood Manipulation to work properly, but it couldn’t be helped. He had to use some mana to put that in action and make his body use Chi even faster.
With that skill and Blood Manipulation, Billy made his body absorb as much energy as possible in the air. While the barrier consumed pretty much all the magical energy, oxygen still had the energy to give Billy health and stamina. Eventually, Billy’s body was perfectly fine. His health and stamina were full, but he didn’t stop there… he kept trying to absorb the energy, even though his body resisted.
“This is harder than I thought…” Billy thought.
Billy assumed that his body would absorb the energy if he forced it to happen, but life isn’t easy. Still, he persisted nonstop. Thanks to the blood flowing through his body faster, including the brain, Billy recalled that he could learn Health Manipulation to help with that. Still, there was no point in relying on the system right now.
Billy also recalled that he could use Unlimited Conversion and change his body down to a molecular level, but again, he refused that. Billy wondered if he could make a health and stamina core, but that would be difficult… he couldn’t control that yet.
Eventually, Billy was forced to give up on that method since he wasn’t going anywhere. He thought that his cells would become stronger after that training and would be able to store more energy, but in the end, that didn’t show in the skill list.
Billy’s next idea was based on the skills of the dragons that granted them extra health, mana, and stamina. Still, since it was a racial skill recognized by the system, it was useless to him. Instead of Chi using his nose alone, he decided to use it with his whole body. Naturally, at first, Billy didn’t get any result… until he stopped thinking about everything and his focus reached the next level. The energy of the physical plane of existence began to be attracted by Billy’s body… since it was a source of energy from nature, Billy had to become one with nature to use it. Billy’s cells began to store all the energy, and he achieved what he wished for it.
