Chapter 574 Returning (2)
Billy had intended to enjoy that day off. Still, after connecting the dots of that winter with the existence and conflicts of the reincarnated individuals, he was unable to relax. In the end, he left that state feeling more troubled than before… Things had just improved a bit more with the alliance and cooperation of Meryl. Still, Billy only felt lucky because he didn't know everything.
"I suppose the same thing will happen in other parts of the world. It must be because the level of mana of the planet is increasing," Billy thought. "Am I helping with that by making so many things with mana?"
There was also the possibility that the existence of the reincarnated individuals was like some sort of engine to produce mana en masse. Most people can't have a large mana pool or recover it faster, but Billy and the others could.
"Still, it can't be helped… We needed the power to fight our enemies, and we will always need it," Billy thought after shaking his head. "We can't just stop now since things in this world are like that."
After returning home, Billy's family took a day to rest from the trip, and then he showed them the underwater tunnels made by the golems. It was the first time that they had seen so many golems since the titans, and Billy explained that he was planning to use them for defense purposes in case something happened. At the same time, they also decided to help him reinforce the tunnel, and Billy felt thankful for the extra mana. Around that same time, Billy received a weird message from Meryl.
'Can you make me a communication device that lets me talk with the other two?'
Billy frowned when he heard that… he didn't know if he was being overly cautious, but that sounded weird. Since they were going to work together, it would be better if they got to know each other as much as possible, but…
"I suppose negating this would make me look suspicious," Billy thought. "She probably knows that the devices can only contact each other, so I won't be able to tell their conversations."
That was suspicious, and Billy was worried, but in the end, it was something that he wasn't afraid of doing. As Meryl mentioned, she was afraid of him turning to the dark side if he gets more of those skills, so she was probably going to articulate or use those two to make sure that it won't happen.
"I can always try to make one big communicator that can intercept their messages, but I suppose I won't be able to do it in time," Billy thought. "They know that I can make this almost instantly, after all."
'Sure.'
That was the only thing that Billy sent as a response… he would never trust those guys completely, after all. So, everything they might do, it will never surprise him. In any case, she knew that such thought would cross Billy's mind, and that would be a bit of something to consider, and that would bother him, but she still went with it.
"I suppose that is definitely a sign that I can't trust her…" Billy thought, and then he began to work.
In the end, Billy finished the communicator and then returned to the demi-human continent after four hours. The trusters had increased the flying speed of his suit by fifty percent, and it still could be improved. So, there was that to help Billy forget those small worries.
"You came a lot sooner than I expected…" Meryl said. "Sorry for bothering you."
"It is fine," Billy said. "I will write to Icarus. Come here to pick the other pair. That way, you won't have to worry that I will keep it and just send the messages to him."
"I didn't consider that, but… I also know that asking for this sounds suspicious. Still…" Meryl said.
"It is fine. I don't care," Billy said.
Billy ended the conversation right there, and Meryl didn't have the chance to say anything else. She was finally learning a bit more of Billy's professional side, and he would learn more as she talked with Icarus and Lucyna. He didn't want them close to his family because their actions would always look suspicious in his eyes. Even when they were doing it to make sure that Billy wouldn't become a problem in the future. In the end, the problem of trust was the same for the two sides of the coin.
"Man, just because I can, it doesn't mean that I want to move this fast…" Icarus said when he showed up.
"Lies, you want to be as fast as you can be all the time," Billy said.
"Well, you aren't wrong, but calling me a liar is a bit too much…" Icarus said.
"Whatever, Meryl wants to keep in contact with you, so I gave her a communicator, and now you have the other," Billy said. "Until later."
Those two saw Billy disappearing in the distance, and then Meryl left out a sigh. Although Icarus was slow to read between the lines, he could tell that Meryl asked for the communicator, and Billy was suspicious of it. Still, Billy being Billy, he decided just to do that and ignore all words that they might have said.
"Well, don't feel too bad about it," Icarus said. "Although I think it would be fine if we used Billy's as an intermediary to communicate."
"It seems that he keeps you at a distance, and yet you still trust him," Meryl said.
"Well, until now, and I didn't notice him doing anything that could be dangerous to people like us and the world," Icarus said. "While we made some mistakes because of our own cautiousness, he still never treated us like enemies. As far as I am concerned, we are the ones who gained the most by being his allies. He knows that, and yet he still maintains a neutral instance. Since he only trusts his family and his friends in this world, I consider that a win."
