Over the course of those months that Billy was digging around with his magic, he found many things underground. Most of them were trash. Others were pretty valuable ores. However, he finally got unlucky… and ended up founding a very old cemetery. There were many corpses buried on the path of the tunnel, and he couldn't exactly just make a turn and avoid them. The tunnels had to be straight to avoid accidents. "I didn't know bones could last this long… we are ten meters underground, so a lot of time…

"They need to do something about their bad habit of beheading everyone…" Billy said while furrowing his eyebrows. "Maybe it is a cultural thing that they have, but..." "The beast tamers that survived the war also were all executed," Sarah said. "Now, the new soldiers were all being trained in the style of the barbarians." That wasn't good. Those guys were too sturdy… while Billy had the means to zap many of them while ignoring their defense, he could only be at one place at a time. Sarah could…

Around the time Alexander and his students were about to leave, Billy finally solved the last mystery of the cart. To make the potency start to appear, he had to change the aerodynamics of the vehicle in a way that it would do better against the wind. Since the engine wasn't big and didn't have to be on the front of the vehicle, Billy made the front of the cart to have a triangular shape. He even put windshields in front of it. Making glass was just that easy for him now. This might be hard to believe,…

Billy noticed that some of Alexander's students were hurt in the shoulders and wrist. It was evident that Alexander showed them the improvement in that skill, and they tried to copy. However, their bodies weren't strong enough to endure the strain. They probably tried that version without even knowing the original… In any case, while Alexander was making his body get used to that kind of skill, his students headed toward the dungeon using the same schedule Billy used with Lily. Although they were all…

Those two weeks passed quite slowly, but Billy saw Lily's making a lot of progress in the meantime. Not actually seeing it, but he noticed that they were staying inside the dungeon for longer periods of time, and his materials were finally starting to stock in the warehouse. Every week, several wagons carrying leather and pelt travel the state to sell those, so the stock never lasted for long. Billy even gave some words of praise when those kids made him earn a gold coin the entire day. Thanks to that,…

As promised, Lily and her students showed up after one week, the territory that she was managing was pretty close, but she didn't have enough time to do anything. She probably just greeted everyone that was going to work with her and then told them what they should do for the next two weeks since each group would use the dungeons for only two weeks. "I am back, and as I promised to Kate and Natalie, I will pinch your ears if you stare too much at the chest of the guild receptionist," Lily said. "You…

The walls of the dungeon town were already big enough. They were also quite large enough, so they only needed an extra touch of nastiness for them to become quite troublesome to climb. The final touch given by Billy were some spikes that he made emerge from the walls. He focused on detail and sharpness, so even the minor touches could cut the flesh of the enemies. Naturally, he made those spikes out of iron. With his current mana, he managed to cover around one-fourth of the walls with those spikes…

The trip was supposed to last two weeks, but since some kids were falling behind due to their lack of physical strength, they had to slow down the pace, so they will probably need three weeks to reach their destination. While Billy couldn't use that much free time to forge items, he could use it to practice with his new weapons. "Speaking of weapons, I wonder if I should make shurikens… It has been a while since I used Power Throw, and that skill is quite good," Billy thought. Billy's earth…

Kate and Natalie couldn't understand what Billy meant by that. So, he explained things. Putting aside that they were spoiled kids, pretty much everyone could learn magic as long as they keep improving their meditation level. So, he told them that was their homework. They had to meditate as much as possible, and then, every day, as soon as they came to the lessons, they would use all of their mana to create the largest earth block. In the beginning, their progress would be obvious, so everyone would be even…

Over the course of the two weeks, some things changed. First of all, Lily and Alexander informed to those who knew them that Lily was expecting a child, so they didn't have to keep it a secret anymore. As for another change was the fact that Billy received eight gold coins from the dungeon town, he didn't do anything yet, but he was already being paid. He also had to name his party since it would become the name of the guild as well and thus the name of the dungeon town. Although Billy had the mind of a…
