I Can Make Everything Level UP

"Beautiful, isn't it?" A man approached from behind and asked. "The goddess status has been here for over five hundred years, and it didn't decay even a bit. Just like the temple."

Billy turned around and then saw a man in his forties who had quite the presence. Beatrice looked like him quite a bit. Both of them had dark hair and blue eyes, after all. That was probably her father and the leader of Galatea followers… Billy was expecting to see a more frail-looking men, but he looked as fit as Drew. It was clear that he was a seasoned fighter and probably trained many of the soldiers.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Felipe Silvi," Beatrice's father said after bowing slightly. "I am Beatrice's father and the current leader of the followers of the goddess Galatea."

"I am just a guy who don't want to be noticed by the enemy, so I will keep my name hidden," Billy said. "Sorry for that."

"Even if you don't say your name, many can guess where you are from and who you are based on your skills," Felipe said. "Still, I suppose we shouldn't make that known for many reasons."

"I appreciate your understanding," Billy said. "As a sign of my gratitude, I won't make you waste too much of your time. I am pretty sure the leader of Cegia state is after what is down there."

"... How did you know that there is something down there?" Felipe asked after the smile disappeared from his face.

"You could have denied it… Well, I can sense it," Billy replied.

"That is impossible… We also are well versatile with magic and not a single person had found what is there with their senses alone," Felipe said.

Billy wondered if he had said too much. Still, he couldn't know that he had heard from someone. Any other source also would be dubious. Fortunately, Felipe didn't press the matter and connected to the fact that Billy probably had a connection to the gods of that world.

"... We don't know how, but it is very likely that the leader of the monsters know about what is down there, but there isn't much we can do aside from fighting the enemies off and protecting this place no matter what," Felipe said. "This temple, this statue, and… They can't be moved from here."

"I suppose there is a special reason for that, but that only makes easier for the enemy to target this city constantly," Billy said. "Regardless, this type of enemy is bound to cause problems on a much larger scale. So, I will help as much as possible in order to protect my friends and the places they come from. Still… Is it possible for me to hear what is down there?"

"My apologies, but that is the secret of our entire group, no matter what, we can't disclose it," Felipe said.

"Well, I suppose it can't be helped," Billy said. "I will take my leave now."

While he was leaving, Billy wondered if he should just dig a tunnel and see what was buried there. It wouldn't be difficult, but he assumed that the mana he felt earlier would probably block his way, and the people of the temple would notice that someone was targeting their relied. Billy assumed that they were hiding a relic from Galatea, the goddess. He may not know what it was yet, but he will take it once the temple city is invaded if the worst comes to the worst. It is better than letting it fall into the hands of the enemy.

"I will start the tunnel today in the back of the inn just in case…" Billy thought.

In the end, he informed his friends that he just went to say hi, and then he asked about what the enemy might be looking for. They also assumed that the temple had some sort of relic that he might want, but they had no idea what for he wanted that. Billy didn't know either, but he probably thought that he could boost his powers using that. If it was true or not…

"He said that the temple and the statue were there five hundred years ago… So, the relic must have been there for that long as well," Billy thought. "Was it something given to one of us or was it created by one of us?"

It wasn't hard to believe that an item created by someone who has the same powers as crazy as Billy could create something that durable… The temple, the statue, and the relic must have some kind of auto repair effect. Since they looked brand new and all.

In any case, the group moved the next day to the Northern part of the city again and waited for the monsters, but once again, they didn't show up. The same thing happened several more days, and thanks to it, Billy began to get worried. Something really big and troublesome was about to come… It was the only explanation. Without any other choice, he began to upgrade the gear of his friends while they weren't looking. All in order to make them kill the monsters faster and endure more attacks. He also did the same with the barbarians since he had a lot of free time and mana in his hands. Still, eventually, Billy decided to focus on what he could do to improve his skills. He could snap the head of monsters with Telekinesis and make them kill each other with Mind Control, but that would be suspicious. Those had to be used only now and then. He needed a new means of attack that could kill many monsters at the same time without looking suspicious. One that couldn't reveal his identity would be even better…

In the end, Billy had one pretty good idea. One in which he would be able to use his powers without looking suspicious… Without wasting time, he began to work on that.
