Billy gave those to Lily, Kate, and Sarah, respectively. Since they went shopping with him and they heard the price, they frowned when they felt the power on them. Fortunately, they decided not to think about it. It will be troublesome if they start thinking that Billy scammed one merchant.
Billy didn\'t find anything worth for him, so he increased his speed with the status points he had by forty points. Thanks to that and the effects of Fierce Aura, ye almost could see the aquatic beasts moving in slow motion. Thanks to all those upgrades in the party, they managed to slay eight groups of five hundred the next day. However, the helpers failed in collecting all the materials, so they had to wait for a while for them. Marie scolded them quite a lot, but Kate convinced her to stop pretty soon.
"Maybe we should hire more parties tomorrow," Marie said while they were heading to the guild.
Billy wondered if it was just him or if Marie truly sounded like she had joined the party. While she was gorgeous, she was too troublesome… In any case, that was probably his imagination since she couldn\'t leave her guild to join them. Besides, she was too strong, and the party would be unbalanced. That being said, Billy knew that Marie didn\'t follow the logic of her doings.
In the end, the next day, two more parties joined them. A lot more people came to see them entering the dungeon since now it truly looked like a raid to clear the dungeon. However, a real raid had more than seven participants. The others were just helpers.
"Hey, Billy, look at this," Lily said when she was preparing a shot toward one of the crabs.
Somehow, Billy noticed Lily focusing some mana on the tip of her sword and on her right arm that was pulling the arrow. The whole movie had nee pretty smooth, so Billy knew that she had used a skill that he had mentioned to her. In any case, the fire flew while making high pitching sound even louder than usual and pierce the whole body of the monster.
"You will have a hard time pulling the arrow from there," Billy said.
"Who cares about that? It worked the way you told me," Lily smiled delightedly.
While Billy was happy for her, he wished that Lily calmed down a little since Alexander was jealous. It was quite bothersome for Billy the whole situation… Nevertheless, Billy checked Lily\'s status and saw it there. The skill was called Power Shot, and it was only at level five and cost three points of MP. It was quite low given all that piercing power.
"You learned something your father doesn\'t know. You surpassed him in a sense," Billy said.
"I am not so sure about that," Lily said while frowning.
The usual Lily would be jumping and shouting in joy, but she wasn\'t a kid anymore. She was almost seventeen, so it was natural that she grew a little. While Lily was having a hard time pulling the arrow out of the enemy\'s body. Billy decided to test the application of that skill on his spear. When one crab spawned in front of them, he imbued the tip of the spear with mana and in his right arm, and then he threw toward the target. As he had expected, the spear also pieced the monster\'s body quite deeply.
You learned the skill Power Throw.
Cost: 05 MP
It cost a little more mana than expected, but the power was phenomenal. If he could throw it faster, maybe around level twenty, he could kill most enemies instantly. However, Billy frowned afterward since the idea of throwing his main weapon seemed pretty foolish.
On the next few days, the group hunted the Aquatic Beasts nonstop. The rain never let it up during those days, so they had to fight the monsters at their strongest for many hours. Fortunately, all that hard work paid off, and they found the door to the last room on the seventh day after they reached the fifth floor. He wondered if he would find some test, but the door didn\'t have anything written on it, and a small opening could be seen.
"We just have to touch the door, and it will open," Marie explained. "The trick is to kill all the monsters on this floor, and since we can see that small opening, then we have passed the test."
"Is that so… well, we can do this tomorrow," Billy said. "Let\'s rest properly since I am hoping for one hell of a challenge on the other side."
"Wait, I already defeated this thing once. We can do this now," Marie said.
"Are you one hundred percent certain that the boss you defeated will be the same?" Billy asked. "Moreover, it is raining. Did you face the boss on a rainy day? I don\'t know about you, but I would rather face the monsters on not a rainy day and when we are a bit more rested."
Marie considered Billy\'s words. He had a point, she didn\'t face the boss on a rainy day, and the chances of the boss be different than the time she cleared the dungeon were quite high. Considering all that, retreating and resting was the reasonable thing to do.
"Very well, let\'s do as you say," Marie said.
Billy frowned when he heard that.. While he was the party leader and he could give such calls, she had far more authority as a guild master. He was even thinking of picking up her bones the next day after he had imagined that she would challenge the boss alone…
