I Can Make Everything Level UP

"All right, it is time to work," Billy said. "However, we need to know what each other can do before we can pick a fight with those guys. Icarus is fast, and I can stop them with magic. What can you do?"

"If you stop their movements, I can attack them from behind," Lucyna said. "It will be easier if they can't take a single step."

"All right… You watch the area for a while and then you head to that town and do your work," Billy said while looking at Icarus.

"Roger that," Icarus said and then nodded.

Using the shadows of the night, the group slowly approached the nearest mine. Although it was on a mountain that was relatively tall, the entrance was almost at the ground level. Thanks to that, they didn't have to climb it. Regardless, when they were fifty meters away from the enemies, Billy used his Earth magic, and he could feel all the presence of the guards. At the same time, he made them sink into the Earth until they got buried up to their knees. Those guys panicked at the same time, but soon they recovered and grab their weapons. Unfortunately for them, Lucyna appeared behind and began to cut their throats. Certainly, stabbing them from behind would be simpler, but she wanted to let them bleed to death…

"Is she that bloodthirsty or is she trying to hide what she can do?" Billy wondered.

In any case, Lucyna worked fast, but some mercenaries had crossbows and tried to use those against her. However, Lucyna only pointed her hand toward them, and they lost those weapons. Soon after, they appeared right behind her.

Billy saw some guards trying to reach their pockets, but he used more of his mana to make them sink even further. Smashing their legs to stop them was possible. Those guys didn't have much mana, but Billy still recovered quite a bit. In any case, they died before they could do anything… Despite that, Billy felt some footsteps coming from the mines. Some people still were inside working, but Billy welcomed them by firing some Earth Shells on their heads and killing them instantly.

"That was pretty neat," Lucyna said while she was checking the corpses. "Was that Earth Manipulation? I found that on the skill shop but I didn't want to use so many skill points into such skill when I don't have much mana."

While she was checking the corpses of the guards, Billy kept an eye on the interior of the dungeon, and he checked the ores that the guys he had killed had brought. They were mostly iron ores, but their quality was quite something. They didn't need to be purified either…

"Come to think of it, they should have an warehouse to keep those in the nearest town and they only transport those to the other state now and then," Billy thought. "This is a pain, we should have attacked on the transportation day."

It might make them lose some time, but Billy already had a plan about how to solve that, so he focused on the dungeon. After checking the corpses, Billy created a Fireball and began to move forward. Lucyna stayed behind because she was more looking forward to killing the guards than the monsters. In any case, Billy got used to the rain and eventually began to rain since time was of the essence, and thanks to that, he found the first enemy soon enough. They were big and humanoid, but they were also a lot different than Billy had imagined up close.

The iron golem was pretty powerful and sturdy. Still, Billy entered the dungeon, knowing already how he would deal with the monsters. He fired a lightning bolt straight at the Golem's head… The creature was completely paralyzed, and the heat made its head melt in just two seconds. Billy's firepower had increased a lot, and since the element was adding against the monster, there was no better alternative. Still, the cost of mana seemed a bit high, and the noise, and the flash of light.

You obtained 350 experience points.

The skill Wind Manipulation obtained 175 experience points.

The skill Wind Transformation obtained 175 experience points.

"I made a lot of noise, but the town is three kilometers away and considering the traveling distance of the lightning bolt, it didn't reach there," Billy thought. "Those two probably will hear this, but I suppose it is fine."

For the time being, Billy didn't think that he would fight Lucyna and Icarus any time soon, but even if he had to, Lightning bolts probably wouldn't work. He usually controls the spell to be a bit slower in order to aim, and that would be something easier for those two to dodge. Besides, Icarus already knew about the Thunder Storm. He was annoying, but he wasn't stupid. He certainly had thought of a way to deal with that.

Regardless, Billy advanced in the mine and confirmed that there were no bifurcations. The path toward the last room was pretty straightforward, which made Billy wonder why that was the case… It wouldn't be weird if the dungeons were different in other parts of that world, but even so, that smelled suspicious. Billy would have to do some more investigation after that, but it would be hard since he had to travel for days even to reach the closest states. That seemed like a task for his spies, but it was hard to imagine them achieving much when they were at level of bandits in terms of power. Billy had to find another alternative...
