I Can Make Everything Level UP
chapter-141

Although Lily was caught off guard, she still hit the two cores in the air with her insane firing speed. The cores didn't have the chance to summon water to remake their bodies, and Billy confirmed that the plan had been perfect when he received the notifications.

"I heard that you were practicing to do exactly that… but it is kind of scary that you succeeded on your first try," Alexander said.

"Don't lose your focus. There is more incoming," Billy said.

After doing some more tests, Billy confirmed that the wind sphere was twenty percent more efficient than the Earth blocks despite the difference between the level of the skills. Still, he increased that by thirty-three percent after using some status points by increasing his magic by fifty points. His and Lily's combo easily annihilated dozens of Golems, and for the first time, they reached some areas where parties were hunting. They found only three, though. Since everyone else that could reach that far was on the fourth floor. Those three parties were the only ones that went on that floor every single day.

"I suppose staying on the second floor would be better if they want to make money…" Billy thought. "Would that be shameful to them? Or they have some extra benefits by saying that they could hunt at this level?"

Aside from hunting in dungeons for materials, Billy assumed that most parties could make some money offering other services to other people. They just had to spread their name wisely… If Billy were in their position, he would do that. Make his name clearing one of those dungeons, and then offer some bodyguard services to rich people… but since he valued his freedom, that wasn't an option. Regardless, those people had some serious looks on their faces… It was quite grim.

"They looked pretty pissed…" Alexander frowned.

"It is something similar… it is stress," Billy said. "They probably stay inside this dungeon during the whole day. Thanks to that, they become like that… grim and always in a bad mood."

"Are they in that much need of money?" Lily asked.

"Maybe it isn't money they are after…" Billy replied. "I heard that this town has five clans. They probably belong to one of those, or some of them are the leaders of a clan. To avoid their organization from falling apart, they need to achieve certain things. This is probably to keep their members from being scouted to other clans."

Until now, they only treated the exploration they did inside the dungeons like an adventure, but they began to put themselves in the shoes of those people… certainly, going to a dungeon every day certainly would turn anyone's life into something grim. In any case, Billy regretted saying that a little… Now it was his party's turn to look depressing with their heads down. Fortunately, they found another spawning point, and they recovered.

The map of the third floor was almost the same size as the second floor, so Billy began to wonder if they should return now. They had twelve days before their deadline, so it was more than enough to cover the two remaining floors… if the monsters there weren't like two times stronger than the golems. However, they found the entrance to the fourth floor…

"Hmm… There are some roads that we haven't explored yet, so I guess we got lucky in finding the stairs to the next floor already," Billy said. "What do you guys think? Should we take a peek on the fourth floor?"

Billy's friends knew that he was just messing around since he was in a good mood for that unexpected good news, so they didn't fall for that.

"Let's rest for today… Although I said that, we will reach the town after sunset," Kate said.

That was true… Billy wondered, thanks to that, why he didn't find the guys on the fourth floor leaving the dungeon. Using it at night was forbidden, and all the adventurers had to leave before sunset for safety reasons. Thanks to that, his party will have to hurry up in order to avoid punishment. Even if they are guests of the lord of the state, rules had to be followed.

In the end, the trip back that was supposed to last three hours, they did in two since they picked the pace and didn't hold back. Billy had used a lot of mana, so he didn't know if he would be able to recover it, even if he spent the rest of the night.

"Maybe, I should do some shopping tomorrow and see what I can find here," Billy thought. "I am leveling up my skills quite fast, but my mana isn't keeping up with it anymore."

It was only natural since Billy was using four times more mana, even if compared to Sarah. He noticed that her Meditation and Zen were increasing every single day since she also wanted a mana pool of that size. Nevertheless, the group sold the materials of that day, and for the first time, they made more than one gold coin. By splitting with everyone what they had earned, Billy already could obtain one and half gold coins. So, he was imagining himself buying some items with awesome magic effects.

"Billy, shouldn't we tell the guild master that we reached the fourth floor?" Lily asked.

"I never promised her that we would call her. She just said that we should," Billy replied.

"You sure have some nerves in ignoring her words," Natalie said.

"Indeed he has," Marie suddenly appeared and said.

Billy let out a sigh… she probably was around and heard that one party had arrived with tons of cores.. To make matters worse, Jean probably had already left the town, and Pierre followed him, so there wasn't a single person around that could hold her back from doing what she wanted.
