Bab 41: Attack (1)

Despite that failure, Billy insisted, based on what he had experienced so far, the really good effects and skills would cost one hundred skill points. So, after making the amulet reach level ten and finding the same options as in the ring, Billy focused on making the amulet level up. It took a month, but he eventually found what he wanted, but…

Iron Amulet - Lv 20

Magic + 02

Durability: 05/05

Status points: 50

Effects: Automatic Meditation Lv 01 (100 skill points)

At the cost of one hundred skill points, the king granted him the power to enter into Meditation state. So, Billy could recover one extra point of mana per hour. It was better than nothing, but it would take a while for him to reach level forty, and while he used the status points to increase the bonus in magic, Billy wasn't using that much these days.

"In any case, I should be glad that I increased the amount of mana that I can by fifty percent…" Billy thought.

Actually, since Billy spends two hours in daily meditation, he recovered two times more than that. Still, with his busy life, soon, he wouldn't be able to count on that all that much. While Billy was wondering what would be the best method to proceed, one day, all the post leaders were called to the mansion of the lord… Nothing happened lately, so that was unusual.

"I guess something is about to happen… I need to prepare myself," Billy thought.

After thinking for a while, Billy wondered if he should buy several rings and make them reach level twenty. That would save some mana because increasing the Meditation level of a single item would be way more expensive. If only the stone rings he tried to make had other status aside from durability, he wouldn't have to save money… it was weird since the weapons were made of stone and granted other attributes. Maybe the materials of the weapons and the city were different.

"I guess that makes sense… if the walls were made of the same material as the weapons, they would be way sturdier," Billy thought.

Regardless, a few hours later, Drew returned while showing a serious explanation and called all the guards for some reason. As expected, Billy's intuition was right, but he didn't expect to hear what he heard…

"We are going to attack the elementalists," Drew said. "The escorts confirmed that they are preparing themselves for an all out attack and we can't let that happen. It is time to put them in their place."

The guards roared in excitement. After all, it was the first time they had the chance to be on the attacking side. Billy, on the other hand, wasn't that excited… fighting to protect was everything he had done until now, but now he was going to fight to destroy. He will have to go down on the same level as the enemies. That didn't seem right… However, after thinking for a while, Billy realized that it was the chance for his tribe to get their revenge for decades of suffering. Not to mention, by getting rid of that problem, they will have the chance to expand their horizons. Exploration, the chance to cultivate in the areas nearby, and find more resources… many options will be opened to them.

"Only the recruits that are good with bows will come with the attack group," Drew said. "Aside from them, only those who are older than fifteen can come. If you think that you aren't ready yet, you can say now."

Billy didn't know if that was his father's strategy to make everyone go, but it was hard to imagine someone raising their hand and saying that. In the end, no one said. No one looked afraid either. In fact, they were looking forward to the fight. In the end, even Alexander was selected to go, even though his skills with a bow were just average. He didn't know the multiple or the rapid-fire skills, but it looked like Drew wanted as many archers to back them up as possible.

"You didn't look as excited like the others today," Drew said when they were heading home. "You don't look like someone who would feel nervous, though."

Billy wondered if he could talk with his father about that. Descending to the level of the enemies didn't feel good… unless they exterminated the elementalists, which was bound to cause trouble later.

"I can guess what you are thinking, but we are part of a larger group and we aren't the ones calling the shots," Drew said. "We have to follow our orders because the lord and the people of this town took us in when we needed their help."

Billy was aware of that… it wasn't like he didn't want to participate in the mission no matter what. He was just a bit troubled over it. He didn't lose anyone close to him since he was born in that world, so his desire for revenge was weak. Regardless, Alexander was going, and Lily will definitely go as well. As for Natalie, it was hard to say. With that in mind, Billy had to do his best to make sure that his group of misfits wouldn't suffer any losses. Increasing his level on a single night was impossible, but Billy could improve his Stone Bow. Still, it won't last for long if it doesn't increase its durability. He won't be able to just increase its firepower.
