Chapter 310 Iminent danger (5)
It was annoying, but Alexander had a point. Billy didn't consider that such a thing could happen. His sense of urgency decreased since he was so happy, and people don't think that problems might arise when they feel like that. People tend to think that such waves of good luck and happiness will last forever.
"I suppose you have a point…" Billy said and then sighed.
"Do I?" Alexander frowned. "I thought it would take a while longer to convince you. I suppose you really have a soft spot for your kids."
"Shut up. I will tell Lily that you were looking at Paule's ass," Billy said.
"I wasn't! Perhaps I did it, but only once or twice… but I didn't think anything when I did that!" Alexander said. "If anything, it was an accident."
"So, you were looking… I am sure that men don't think of anything when they look at a woman's ass," Billy said. "Not with the upper brain, I am sure."
While Alexander was trying to explain himself, Billy made some iron containers to store the extra horns. He had no idea how they were turned into powder, but he will have to learn that since the horns in their original form take too much space.
Around noon, almost all parties left the dungeon, and the monsters were spawning every twenty seconds. Alexander was starting to get a bit tired, so Billy was forced to zap the enemies with more power. Around one hour later, Paule showed up and looked relieved upon seeing them.
"I thought that something had happened to you despite those constant weird noises…" Paule said and then sighed. "But it seems that you two are… Completely fine? As expected of the group that was recognized by the guild masters."
"The real fearsome ones are the women of our group," Billy said. "They ordered us to come alone because they knew that those monsters wouldn't be a problem to them."
"Is… That so?" Paule asked while frowning. "Well, I will stop bothering you two."
"Why would you say stuff like that…" Alexander asked and then sighed.
"Because I am bored," Billy replied. "Focus, new enemies have arrived."
Around the sixth hour of their run inside the dungeon, which was around three in the afternoon, the spawning rate of the monsters decreased. Billy didn't know if the core was running out of mana in that area or if it had realized that only two monsters would defeat them. Thanks to that, Alexander felt satisfied and didn't complain when Billy said that it was time to go home.
In any case, they ended up getting around fifteen hundred pairs of horns, and much to their surprise. That only could make ten bottles of aphrodisiac, each bottle costs one gold coin, but since half of the earnings were going to the state, they earned four gold coins each. Upon seeing how much material those two got, the other adventurers were completely speechless. Not even the parties that reached the deepest floors had obtained that many horns.
Before going home, Billy started to dig the tunnel that would connect that dungeon to the capital, and thanks to the stupid amount of mana he had stored, he managed to dig ten kilometers of tunnels in a single day.
"When I think that I am catching up to you… You show me this," Alexander said and then sighed. "Oh well, it doesn't matter. Soon I will see my wife and daughter, and something like this can't compare to it."
"And you call me a doting parent…" Billy frowned.
They returned home as fast as possible, and in the end, Billy returned just in time to see Kate sunbathing with the babies while Natalie was already training with her swords. She knew that she couldn't do that yet, so she muttered a crap when Billy appeared. He pulled her ears to make her reflect on her actions.
"You returned pretty late," Kate said.
"Alexander was bitching that he wanted to help more, and he showed me some decent arguments to do so," Billy said.
"Bitching… how were things there?" Kate asked.
Billy explained to his wives what he saw and what he learned when he did some research. He had forgotten about it, but dungeons with more than five floors were pretty rare. Only one existed in all the states he had visited, and that was counting the one he was trying to help right now. Billy asked Jean as well, and in the last five hundred years, that was the first dungeon that had more than five floors that had appeared, and it has been two hundred years since the last total dungeon break.
"The monsters that are escaping, it can't be compared to a real dungeon break," Billy said. "I read in a book that when the last dungeon broke, the dungeon disappeared, but all of its monsters escaped as well, hundreds of thousands. The state that failed in the clearing was completely decimated by the monsters, and it took fifty years for the neighboring states to deal with that many monsters."
"That is rather troublesome…" Kate said. "I wonder if, at some point, Jean will ask us to take the new students to help in that dungeon."
"He won't. The level of the monsters is too high. Even the graduated guys will have a hard time against them," Billy said. "Without a skill or spell powerful enough to stop those monsters, most people would have a hard time against it."
Billy had forgotten about that since he had been so happy lately. Still, that problem was no laughing matter. Perhaps he should treat that problem more seriously, considering those things, it was a pain, but perhaps he will have to speed up his plan of conquering that place.
"I think that we will be able to help in two or three months," Kate said.
"I will try to solve this before it comes to that," Billy said.
