Chapter 371 Absolute power (06)

"What is wrong, Svan?" Billy asked when he arrived and crossed his arms.

"... This is the commander of Galatea soldiers, her name is Beatrice Silvi," Svan said after a long sigh. "She is the daughter of the current leader of Galatea followers… This is… a friend of mine, Beatrice. Who came to help after I requested his presence."

"What is his name?" Beatrice asked.

"My name doesn't matter," Billy said. "I don't know what business you have here, but I would like to ask you to refrain from causing a scene. We are tired and we would like to rest without being bothered. Can you please leave or are you going to keep using your influence to cause trouble to others?"

"That isn't my intention, but it is my duty to check what are the goals of people that have come to help us without being called by our people," Beatrice said.

"Svan already said why we came here," Billy said and then sighed.

"He told his intentions, not yours," Beatrice said. "What would you gain from coming here and help our state against this enemy?"

"Is that hard to believe that we came to help some friends?" Billy asked.

Beatrice went silent for a while and studied Billy's expression. It was clear that she wasn't a fool or that she obtained her position due to nepotism. Still, from her perspective, someone had to be a fool to risk getting the Wrath of such an enemy just to help some friends. Her goddess teachings say that people have to be benevolent, and being benevolent to friends is easy, but not so much when many lives are on the line. In any case, at least she didn't pass a bad vibe from her presence and words alone. Still, Billy did know better than just assuming things about others so soon, he had to be careful.

"Very well, I shall leave today believing your words," Beatrice said.

"Thank you for your consideration," Billy said.

"Still, even if you want to keep yours and your friends' identities hidden, I would like you to introduce you to my father, the leader of this place," Beatrice said. "I am well aware that the current changes on the battlefield are thanks to your group."

"It was due to the effort of many teams," Billy said. "Still, I am going to pass on that."

Billy's attitude and casual speech were starting to get on the nerves of the soldiers behind Beatrice. He could see some popping veins in their foreheads. Still, they had been well trained enough to not do anything reckless. In any case, without saying another word, Beatrice and her merry band left the area. While she was a pretty woman, Billy wished that she could leave him alone. It was hard to believe that his words alone would be enough for that, though. Considering the situation, it would be beneficial for her and her people got get closer to Billy and his friends.

"She isn't a bad person, even though she is a difficult one," Svan said.

"Do you think that she will report this to her father?" Billy asked.

"Definitely," Svan replied while nodding. "He doesn't show up often, but he is a well respected figure and he comes now and then to raise morale."

It seemed that an encounter with another big shot was inevitable. Still, as long as they don't cause problems for his group, Billy won't mind. He went down prepared to say some harsh words necessary, like he might leave and take all the barbarians with him if they were bored too much. Still, Beatrice was reasonable enough not to insist on something that he didn't want.

"What happened?" Kate asked.

"Don't worry, they aren't troublesome enough to get on our bad side when we came to help them," Billy replied after he returned to his room. "Anyway, I guess I was being naive thinking that we could keep a low-profile here. Still, I know what we should do now."

In fact, Billy didn't know, so he decided to wait until the next day. In the end, he did the right thing in waiting… he planned to make some tunnels below the city that would lead him to their post in order to appear and disappear as soon as possible. However, the enemy of flying monsters decreased, and that put everyone on guard.

It didn't take long for Billy to notice that the enemies flying were just a distraction. Eventually, he began to feel the ground trembling a little… Not even Sarah noticed that because Billy always used that kind of skill in order to prevent surprise attacks.

"Watch out from below!" Billy shouted.

A few seconds after the shout, some soldiers began to fall and grunt in agony. The area around Billy was mostly safe because when he saw the ground cracking, he began to freeze the area alongside Sarah. Thanks to that, when the new monsters emerged, most of them were already halfway frozen.

"Eww… What a weird creature," Billy said.

The monsters had two heads, and while those snakes weren't exactly massive, they were still dangerous since they were only half-meter long. They poison and paralyze their foes with their bites and abilities, and that is quite the terrifying combination. Those who had been bitten by them could only wait until their friends could rescue them in time.

"Sorry, Billy, but at this rate…" Sarah said.

"I suppose it can't be helped," Billy said.

In the next moment, Sarah touched the ground and then used her best magic in the largest scope yet…
