I Can Make Everything Level UP
chapter-236

Little by little, Billy's attacks were getting faster, and when he killed the thirtieth enemy, he already could strike their wrists even while they were attacking. He could only do one at a time, though, and he also had to jump back to avoid the momentum of the attack, but it was progress nonetheless.

At that point in time, around nine hundred monsters had been slain, and aside from Billy's party, only the groups that were working with the guild masters were standing on their ground and working as a wall to protect and inspire those behind them. Despite that, the number of corpses around them also numbered in the hundreds… Kate, Lily, and Sarah were doing their best to stop them, but those beasts were way stronger than horses.

Billy looked to the eastern aside and saw that the soldiers of the other camps were facing the enemies as well. They couldn't send reinforcements because the enemies could attack two gates with the three armies. Even while curling behind the walls, they were having a hard time. As soon as Billy realized that, he saw the second wave of beasts dashing toward them. The beast tamers were also coming, and they would be a massive pain in the ass with their crossbows.

"I suppose it can't be helped…" Billy said, and then he grabbed his crossbow.

Billy pointed his weapon toward all the nearby monsters, and after pulling the trigger a single time, he made his special bolts hit and pierce the eyes of the monsters one after the other with a fearsome accuracy.

"Spread around and help the other groups. We will need all of them if we want to deal with all the monsters and deal another crippling blow on the enemy's army," Billy said.

His friends had already seen the crossbow in action, but not against a real target… Its power was fearsome. Thanks to that, they were completely speechless, but they still heard and nodded to Billy's words when they heard that. It would be hard, but if they decimate all the monsters under the enemy's control, then they will demoralize their troops even more.

Billy didn't have enough mana to kill hundreds of monsters using his crossbow, so he had to use his energy to change the tide of the battle. By wiping out all of the enemies in the area nearby, Billy gave a chance not only to his friends but to numerous other parties to move to the sides and help the other groups. That created two waves that moved in opposite directions, but that forced the monsters to be separated from each other. Thanks to that, the soldiers and adventurers had an easier time-fighting… Until the second wave of enemies approached and things repeated themselves again.

"This isn't going to end…" Billy thought while watching the other group of monsters and the tamers one kilometer ahead and watching the battlefield.

The beast tamers weren't coming because Billy and the others were putting up a much better fight than expected. They were cowards… And Billy thought that he could use that against them.

"No pain, no gain, I suppose," Billy thought.

That would cost him some mana, but Billy needed a diversion. So, he used Wind Manipulation and sent a powerful gust of wind that raised a massive dust cloud. After getting rid of some monsters on his way, Billy dashed toward the beast tamers.

The enemies clicked their tongues in annoyance when they saw the dust cloud. It was evident that one of the mages on the defender's side used that. Probably to gain some time… It was another mind game that Jean loved so much. Or so the tamers assumed that it was… But then they frowned when they noticed that the dust cloud wasn't losing speed and it was approaching them without dispersing. Staying inside that wasn't a good idea, and while retreating might cause a problem later, they valued their lives too much to just hold their ground. Still, they didn't move fast enough… Billy increased his speed when he saw those silhouettes turning around. They made a terrible mistake…

When Billy left the dust cloud, neither of the beast tamers saw him. They heard some footsteps, but when they turned around to check it, Billy was already in the air after jumping and ready to strike two of them. They only noticed what was going on when they heard the grunts of the pain of two enemies who had their necks pierced by Billy's glaive. After looking in the direction of the sound, two unfortunate tamers saw Billy jumping toward them as well. They immediately grabbed their crossbows, but they weren't fast enough. Billy also killed them after not meeting any resistance. However, things changed afterward.

The beast tamers pointed their weapons at Billy and began to fire their bolts. Jumping in the air would make him an easy target, so Billy ran instead. Those guys didn't have the habit of making the monsters fight while riding them, so they didn't use them in that way. Thanks to that, Billy had an easy time by sidestepping and approaching each one of them. Thanks to that, ten other enemies died in the blink of an eye.

Without realizing who Billy was, the beast tamers formed an encirclement to bombard him from all sides. They didn't have a warrior's discipline and courage, but they had their pride. They couldn't allow a single man to attack them from so up close and then let him escape, but in the end, that had been another mistake… By forming an encirclement, they exposed themselves to Billy. Now he could see a lot more of them.

When the enemies began to pull the triggers of their weapons, Billy made several earth walls emerge around him for defense purposes, but he still left an opening, one big enough to let the enemies see and big enough for him to see several of them and point his crossbow at them.. The bolts began to make cracks in the walls, but Billy ignored that while he attacked the enemies and killed two of them at a time with a single bolt, such was the power of his weapon.
