I Can Make Everything Level UP

The guards grabbed their weapons, but Billy created several Fireballs above them before they could even finish that move. It wasn't so bad for a first try since they were the size of their own heads. Billy thought of training that when he saw Kate manipulating two knives with wind magic, but he never had the chance to try it. Regardless, the enemies couldn't move since they didn't understand what was going on. They had heard of magic, but they never had seen it…

"Well, now… I know that all this is bullshit," Billy said. "Tell me who is behind this."

The guards clenched their teeth and then made an expression of resignation. Even though he waited for a while, Billy didn't hear anything. They had resigned to their fate… they would rather die while being burned alive than tell Billy what he wanted. He clicked his tongue and then looked at the innkeeper, who was trying to slowly leave the area. Interrogating that one will be a lot easier.

"Billy, calm down… don't do anything harsh," Anna said. "We can't afford to make a mess out of this situation…"

Billy knew what Anna was worried about. Being part of an incident now would certainly cause trouble to their people… they became allies of the Hiloh state. Still, nothing that says that they couldn't become enemies… and the difference in size and power was too big. However, she probably didn't consider that if they let themselves be captured, probably the information about that incident won't reach Jean or Pierre. Someone to solve the matter won't come…

Forcing their way out of the town was an option. Still, Billy doubted that he and Sarah alone could defeat all the guards of the town while protecting the healers… even if they use magic without a care. Still, Billy couldn't forget about the driver of the carriage.

"All right…" Billy said and then made the Fireballs disappear. "You can take us to the prison. Lead the way."

That certainly wasn't how a prisoner should act, but in the end, the guards could only obey Billy since their order was to take his group to the prison. In any case, if he doesn't find the driver in prison, Billy is determined to make head rolls. The possibility that the driver had been killed already was pretty high… and while they weren't friends, Billy would avenge him.

"Noz , no… you guys can go in front of us," Billy said when he saw some of the guards waiting for his group to move and then walk behind them.

The guards didn't even think of trying to fool Billy. From their perspective, Billy was like a monster that could burn them alive in a single moment if he wished for it. They began to walk in front of his group.

"What are you planning with this?" Sarah asked while whispering.

"Find the driver, if we don't find him in the prison, prepare yourself because this will end in a fight," Billy said.

Sarah nodded. Apparently, she had a strong sense of responsibility, so she would avenge her fallen comrade… The town had already gotten quite dark, and few people were moving around. Thanks to their formation, no one frowned when they saw the guards looking in front of a group of foreigners.

In the end, things wouldn't be as Billy had planned. Eventually, they reached a certain building that had some thick walls, and there was quite the distance between the others. However, that wasn't the problem. The problem was the fact that many more armed guards appeared out of the darkness…

"You guys are determined… I respect that," Billy said to the group in front of them.

The guards around were armed with spears and bows… long, and middle ranged weapons. They sure could overwhelm Billy's group with those if it comes to a fight. Not to mention, that would be useful to them. The guards could say that the prisoners resisted and they had to kill them.

"Drop your weapons, now." Another man armed with a red spear said.

If two captains were involved… some even more influential than Pierre had planned all that. Gerald? He didn't give the vibe of someone who would do such a roundabout thing… Jean? What would he gain by getting rid of a few healers and two kids? He knew how strong they were, so that seemed stupid… the perpetrator was someone Billy didn't know.

The group of guards began to slowly approach from the four directions. That was a bit troublesome, but it wasn't impossible to deal with. The only problem was that fighting and killing them wouldn't solve the situation. Still, Billy had an idea…

"Save your mana, Sarah," Billy said and then touched the ground.

The archers immediately fired their arrows, but them four massive walls of Earth emerged from the ground and then surrounded Billy's group. The arrows didn't even scratch them. The guards approached to break the walls in the next moment, but that had been a mistake. Billy made the walls fall in the four directions and then crushed several of the soldiers. Some of them were smashed and died, but others survived and immediately got up while wounded when the walls began to break. However, Billy and the others had disappeared.

"Where are they? Look for them, now!" One of the captains shouted.

Due to the surprise attack, no one noticed it… but Billy and the others entered the prison. Naturally, the guys working inside helped on the ambush, so the interior was free of enemies. However, Billy found an underground compartment that was sealed by a steel door.

"Before checking this place, cover all the entrances and windows with blocks of earth, that should stop them for a while longer," Billy said.

"Yes…" Sarah said.

"I am sorry, Billy… if only I had listened to you," Anna said while holding her face with both hands.

"That is fine, I never imagined that something like this would happen…" Billy said.. "I felt that something was amiss many times, but I never realized what it was."
