I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 418 The fifth (5)　　 In the blink of an eye, two months passed, and then Billy's friends decided to hold some parties in their residences to celebrate the graduation of the new recruits. Billy found that particularly bothersome since his house would have to host a party for more than fifteen hundred people. Still, he couldn't complain much, he just disliked parties, and the place was big enough for that. That being said, it wasn't something that he could avoid it since he didn't live there alone and perhaps it would be better for his kids to get used to those events.

"Papa, where is Mama," Christina asked while looking around.

"She is busy, she will come later," Billy replied.

Billy was walking around the house lightly dressed better than usual while holding his kids' hands. Christina was a bit afraid of the massive number of people, but Hector seemed unfazed. In any case, Billy will have to look after them in order to avoid problems while his wives celebrate things with their students. Just for the day, the focus was on the students.

Billy wished that he could play with his kids somewhere else, like the lake, but while Kate and Natalie asked him to keep the kids busy, they also said that he shouldn't leave the house.

"So unreasonable…" Billy said and then sighed.

There was no point in Billy being there, but he soon understood why they asked that. Now and then, some nervous kids would approach and try to talk with him, but in the end, they could only say hi nervously while forcing a smile and bowing before leaving. He probably left a good impression on them in that battle against the titan. Still, he seemed too unapproachable for those kids, even though he was walking with even younger ones.

In any case, someone else that had been visiting all the parties came to Billy's house as well. That someone, was Jean… After talking with some students, Kate and Natalie, he went to talk with Billy, who was controlling a mini golem which was playing tag with the kids.

"It has been a while, your wives said that you don't like parties, but I thought it was an exaggeration," Jean said. "As it turns out, most of the exaggerated things about you are actually true."

"Putting that aside, you have been busy lately," Billy said. "Anything new happening that I should know? It is getting hard to hear some rumors lately and I am guessing that you are the cause of it."

"Crazy things have been happening lately, and it is hard for those kinds of rumors to get crazier as they travel. Still, I am trying to control the flow of some pieces of information," Jean explained.

Icarus didn't show up, so Billy imagined that nothing crazy had happened. Billy needed more details, though. His worrywart nature wouldn't let him sleep soundly without knowing what was happening with precision. That was why he decided to take some drastic measures.

"The rumors say that three states were destroyed by the armies created by the titans, that happened a month ago and since then, their location had become unknown," Jean said. "Most of their monsters disappeared as well, but some others are attacking the borders of other states."

It seemed that Icarus was only half correct with his guesses, but Billy assumed that the number of monsters wasn't that massive based on Jean's words. Still, that didn't make any sense. Why would the titans use such a half-assed method to expand the weather conditions that they liked? It would be better to keep going using all of their minions… unless they were running out of juice.

"Putting that aside, I have received some requests from the barbarians, some of them want to learn magic and I am thinking of making them your friends' students in six months," Jean said. "I would bet that the younger ones wouldn't be that hard to teach magic, as for fighting, they already know most of it. Apparently, some of Galatea's followers also want to learn magic, while being teached by you."

"I don't accept students," Billy said.

"I suppose that is just like you…" Jean said while frowning.

"In any case, does this place have many prisoners?" Billy asked. "I never heard of crimes taking place in the capital, but the other regions of this state don't seem completely safe."

"Why do you ask? It is weird to see you taking an interest in criminals all of a sudden," Jean said.

"I am thinking of opening a business, I am planning to sell my pills in far away lands, and I wanted to use those who won't mind or being missed by staying far away from home for longs periods of time," Billy explained.

"And you are planning to hire former criminals to do that kind of work?" Jean asked, visibly surprised. "I don't understand your logic."

"It will be better if you don't understand my plans completely," Billy said. "In any case, if you trust me with that, I assure that eventually, I will turn all the criminals and bandits of this state into new leaves. Don't ask how, though."

Jean was curious as to how that would happen, the only explanation was that he would use some magic on them to force them to obey him, but Jean had never heard of such magic. His guess wasn't completely wrong, but forcing all bandits into submission was just the first of Billy's plans. He will use Mind Control to force those troublemakers to become his allies, just the way Jeannette used her officers. While that seemed kind of unethical, it wasn't like he would turn them into mindless zombies. He will only make them use their skills for a good while they make money for themselves.

The only problem with that strategy was the fact that Billy would need to find another way to make the money and other things return to him faster.
