I Can Make Everything Level UP
chapter-82

Billy returned the next day as promised, and he confirmed that Kate's HP was at seventy percent of its max. The pill should have recovered all of her health and added with one person's natural regeneration… Billy assumed that the virus was taking her HP by four or three points per hour. Considering the effects of his glaive, Edward probably tried to use it to help his daughter, but it didn't work.

There was also another problem. Kate still was sleeping a lot. Even though her HP improved a bit, her SP was the same. Thus she needed to rest a lot. He will have to make the pills recover her SP as well… He needed to solve that as well.

"You came today again… is it out of pity?" Kate asked as soon as she woke up.

"I am starting to think that you don't want this marriage to happen… but you don't want to tell this to your father," Billy said. "That… or maybe you just want to make people stay away from you. You probably think that it will be easier for others if you don't get close to them, since you think that you are going to die anyway. That is really depressing, huh."

Kate opened her eyes widely since she thought exactly that. Billy had a discernment level that wasn't normal for a child. It was only natural, though. She didn't live much outside that room, so she didn't have much life experience. While she was eighteen, her mental age was like a kid several years younger.

"My apologies if I was so blunt about this," Billy said.

Kate was only talkative and liked to ask questions when Edward was around. When he wasn't, she would try to play the indifference card. Billy didn't dislike silence, but the awkwardness of the atmosphere was beyond even him. If he meditates there for one hour or two, he probably will make her reach level forty a lot sooner. Based on his calculations, he will need three weeks to make her reach level forty. Visiting her every single day and talking about nothing would be too suspicious. Besides, he also wanted to make sure that no one would link her recovery with anything supernatural like his powers. Still, he wanted to make everyone notice that some liveliness improved her health. So, he was planning to bring his siblings and friends now and then.

In any case, Billy told Kate some funny stories… at least funny from his perspective. He had a particularly weird sense of humor, after all. For example, he told her about the times' Alexander was learning how to use a bow and made the string of the weapon whip on his forearm many times, or the time Lily got smacked in the head when they were hunting, and she tried to draw a weird symbol with her arrows on the target… they were all his stories about his friends being stupid and goofy.

Once again, Kate fell asleep after just one hour of talking, so he proceeded to buff her medicines and then make her level up. The next day when he arrived at the same time, she was already up, and her complexion had improved considerably. It was weird how stamina helped her more than her own HP. In any case, thanks to that, he didn't have time to buff her medicines, but he solved the problem the next day by bringing his siblings. Edward frowned when he saw Billy bringing his little brother and sister, but he didn't stop him since he noticed that Kate looked a lot better than before.

To make sure the mistake wouldn't be made again, Billy buffed all of her medicines while she was looking away. In any case, Samuel and Samara kept Kate occupied while showing her what they could do with mana.

"Billy… have you already decided what are you going to do?" Camilla asked when Luke returned with his siblings. "Regarding Edward's daughter."

"No, not yet," Billy replied.

"Even though you visit her every day?" Camilla frowned.

"Yes," Billy said. "I have some free time, so it is fine, right?"

"Well… I suppose so," Camilla said. "Still, you should be careful not to give the girl false hopes."

"Of course," Billy said.

Billy didn't have to worry about that because Kate herself wasn't interested in marriage… she just didn't want to cause more problems for her father. In any case, despite all that, when Billy appeared in her room the other day, she asked him something.

"I heard that you were one of those that learned magic first and even taught the elementalists how to use their advanced level of magic," Kate said. "If that doesn't put much strain on the body, can you teach me that? I want to accomplish at least something in my life."

Billy put his right hand on his chin and began to think. At first, Kate assumed that it was impossible due to his silence, but then he explained to her that she could learn, even though it might take a while. What he was thinking was… if he could use Kate's mana to speed up her leveling speed. Since he could use the free status points and skill points of other living beings to make them stronger, that should be possible… However, Billy didn't know enough about mana to imagine how he should do that. There was no skill that could help him with that either…

"... Start by meditating. After that, I will teach you how to use the special technique of the elementalists that will make you control mana with more ease," Billy said. "If you manage to do both, it will be pretty easy for you to learn their elemental magic."

Although that wasn't how the elementalists learned their magic, Billy assumed that it was the most efficient way to do so.. While she does that, Billy would have some time to think of how to control other people's mana.
