I Can Make Everything Level UP
chapter-178

Billy didn't know much about the history of wars on Earth. Even if he had read some books about it, he would doubt if those facts were true. After all, the winners are the ones who write the history books. And more recently, all wars have two sides, the winners write things as they see fit, full of bravery and brilliant individuals. While the losers write that they fought bravely against the devils that used all kinds of cheap tactics against them and committed all kinds of atrocities. Both of them wrote what they wanted to hear what they wanted from future generations.

"Maybe is because of that I never got interested in reading history books…" Billy thought. "Oh well, too late to think about that. Let's focus on what I can do now."

Before he went to bed, Billy checked his status points. His magic went up by three points… that was the first time something like that happened, it usually only increases by one point and not very often. Was it because he killed many monsters, or because he came up with a new spell, or because he used his mana to wipe out that horde? Maybe all the possibilities were right… In any case, after the training of the last six months, he had some status points to use. Maybe he should increase his magic in order to do what he was planning... he couldn't fail, after all.

The enemy didn't lose another day analyzing what the hell was going on. As soon as the sun began to rise, several battalions were preparing to move… the Toles state was finally thinking of doing things seriously. Ten of those were preparing for battle, but there were no signs of monsters and their tamers.

"Something smells fishy… prepare yourselves," Marie said. "Today we are going to face the core of the Toles army."

Billy realized that she wasn't just telling that because of their numbers… but because the rivalry that those soldiers had was way above the ordinary ones since they participated in the last war and had to endure a full retreat when they were winning due to the kidnapping of the commander's son.

When the battalions began to march forward, Billy and the others noticed that they were using different shields. It was kind of amazing that they longer ones to use as spares in case the necessity arises. However, Billy was more worried about their shape. They were tower shields, and apparently, they were pretty good at stopping arrows from above. That was probably their strategy against his fire magic and the hills and the watchtowers…

"I guess all my ideas are useless now… or maybe not, they won't be able to keep their shields raised while they fight," Billy said. "The only problem is that our archers will risk hitting their allies."

"You think too much about the battle before the start of the battle…" Marie said.

And you think too little, that was what Billy would say if Marie weren't commanding four hundred other people around. Regardless, five thousand enemy soldiers began to march, and Jean responded with three thousand. Again, he was gambling… hoping that soldiers would pull out a win despite the difference in numbers. Regardless, the enemies' battalions stopped at some point, and then the first battalion from their left to the right began to advance. It seemed a pointless action, but Billy and the others noticed that the enemies were up to something. Billy only noticed what was wrong too late… all those battalions didn't advance in a straight line. They advance with an angle slightly to the side. So, the first of their battalion prepared to fight wasn't attacked… However, all the others were by five hundred enemy soldiers. That left them with two thousand and a half soldiers still marching… toward the hills, watchtowers on the defenders' right side… Marie's unit was also there.

"Sons of a bitch… they are targetting us," Marie said.

Billy also thought that was the case. Using those massive numbers to take out the archers was a waste of resources, but their unit was there, and it was the weakest one. Retreating was an option, but it would leave the archers completely open to being attacked.

"Prepare to engage, we will kill these assholes right now!" Marie shouted.

Since it was a heavy unit of infantry, winning wasn't exactly impossible, but it would be difficult. Billy had thought of using some points into magic, but he added forty into strength, he will have to fight many of them, and if he fails at breaching their defense, then things will get messy… the footsteps of the enemies approaching began to be felt and the Adventurers began to sweat nervously.. As for Billy's group, they approached Marie to cover her sides. If she falls, then the whole unit will fall with her since only someone as famous and strong as her could lead that group of undisciplined guys…
