I Can Make Everything Level UP-Novel

While Billy was returning to the bridge site, he imagined all kinds of applications he could do with magic. The most obvious one was to fly… but while he indeed could propel his body upward while firing a gust of wind from his feet after jumping, it wasn't that perfect. Firing two gusts of wind from his feet at the same time was hard.

"There are so many things I want to try…" Billy thought. "But it will take a while before I am skilled enough to do so. Considering the power that the rings will give me, it should be less of a hassle to achieve what I want."

Although he said that, Billy was more excited than anything since the possibilities of what he could do with magic seemed endless. Even more so, considering that the rings were leveling up every day and the bonus in magic they granted was tremendous. Once they reach level twenty, the bonus in magic will be one thousand points… how insane is that? Billy would have two times more mana than the strongest of the elementalists… he felt like he was cheating, though.

In any case, to help with his mental training, Billy also practiced creating Water Arrows. Creating them with the earth was easy, but things changed with the other elements. However, all that work was worth it since the speed the water arrows flew was two times faster than water balls and thirty percent faster than the earth arrows. Perhaps the fire arrows will be faster than the wind ones since they will use the fire to propel themselves…

"You sure like to travel around," Natalie said when Billy returned. "Are you that bored or do you miss home that much?"

"A change of scenario is necessary to keep the body and the mind fresh, but since you have muscles for the brain, you don't notice that," Billy said.

"Ha-ha, very funny, you should at least try something new to taunt me," Natalie said.

"Anyway, did I miss something?" Billy asked. "Where Alexanded and Lily?"

"Since some of us have too much time in our hands, the tribe leaders decided to send some of us to explore the river upstream and downstream," Natalie explained. "This is the place where the river is the thinnest, but aside from that, we don't know much about this… they left a week ago, and they received orders to go to both directions for ten days and then return."

"But we already know what is in the south, it is the ocean…" Billy frowned.

"Yes, that is why both groups will have ten days, it is the distance to reach the ocean," Natalie said. "Besides, we can't focus on a single place now that the inhabitants on the other side aren't showing up anymore. Who knows what they are plotting… Anyway, Alexander left with one of those groups, Lily is looking for materials to craft arrows."

It seemed that Billy was free for the rest of the day. That was disappointing… maybe he should check if his magic is strong enough now that the rings had reached level ten to pull the fish out of the river by himself. Once he does that, the others will have the chance to kill the Sahati with ease. However, Natalie needed his help.

"If you are free, help me with my training," Natalie said. "I want you to fire Fireballs toward me."

"Why specifically Fireballs?" Billy frowned. "They will damage your swords, you know."

"It is fine, I was planning to buy new ones anyway," Natalie said.

"All right… if you miss it, this is going to hurt," Billy said and then created a Fire Bullet while aiming his index finger like a gun toward Natalie.

"...How can something so small can have so much power?" Natalie said, visibly shocked.

That was surprising. Natalie noticed the power of such a small projectile instantly… knowing her. Billy thought she would complain and tell him to attack seriously. Her senses indeed were something else. In any case, Billy decided to start slowly and let Natalie get used to them. When he fired, Billy saw the projectile actually burning itself as a fuel to propel even faster. He wondered if it was due to the environment or due to the friction in the air… Nevertheless, the fire bullet crossed a distance of twenty meters instantly. However, Natalie blocked with both swords.

"There was no weight behind it…" Natalie said.

"That is because… it is just how things are," Billy said since it would be much of a pain to explain how fire was formed. "If you want to deal with heavy projectiles, we will have to use something else."

Considering that Billy could see a dent in one of the swords, it was only a matter of time before either of them got destroyed. If he focuses on weight, then even if he doesn't use fire, the weapons will lose durability insanely fast.

"I suppose just blocking won't solve anything… I have to repel it with my blade," Natalie said.

"... That is actually a good idea, I am surprised that you realized that," Billy said. "Still, you should use only one sword and leave the other for defense."

"You are such a worrywart… this is training, it is normal for people to get hurt," Natalie said.

"That carelessness will get you killed someday," Billy said. "You are already fifteen, stop being reckless like a child."

"I am older than you! Don't call me a child!" Natalie said.

"This short temper of yours doesn't help your argument," Billy said and then shrugged. "Anyway, I will show you how dangerous that attitude can be."

While Natalie was seriously glaring at him, he wondered how he could make her grow up and be less reckless.. The fact that she was ostracized by the people of her tribe didn't help with that… probably because even her mother didn't tell her what to do, or she gave up on it because Natalie was just too damn stubborn.
