Chapter 283 Fear (2)
Chapter 283 Fear (2)
Billy and the barbarians kept digging the tunnels, but Pierre was wondering what he should do to help while they were doing that. Just making an escape route wouldn\'t work for those places that had thousands of people… they would need something more.
Thanks to that, on the very same day the tunnel to the first town was completed, Billy saw an unexpected visitor appearing. It was Rosalie and her servants… she had grown a lot since the last time he saw her, and she looked more confident, but she still was showing a stiff smile when she saw Billy.
"It has been a while, and I have come to help," Rosalie said.
"You don\'t need to pretend that you aren\'t scared of me," Billy said and then pointed to the barbarians behind him. "I can handle that, but these guys will find it annoying if you look at them like they are unknown creatures. In any case, I suppose this is your problem as well… Still, why didn\'t you warn me beforehand, Pierre?"
"Well, I had the idea, but I didn\'t know if Rosalie would be willing to come or if my lord or lady Aura would agree with me," Pierre replied.
"Lord Jean said that I would be fine since lord Billy is here," Rosalie said.
"I am not a lord, and I dislike flattery," Billy said. "These guys sure are some slave drivers… but whatever."
"We will depart tomorrow at night, so you and your crew can rest for a day and a half," Billy said.
"We can go right now. You don\'t need to worry about our stamina," Rosalie said.
"We will depart tomorrow night," Billy said.
"Yes, sir…" Rosalie said while thinking that she had angered Billy.
Billy frowned, he wasn\'t angry, but he could tell that Rosalie was scared. How does he deal with children again? He forgot since he stopped treating his friends like that. In any case, he should get used to it again because his kids would come soon enough. In any case, since Billy had some extra time, he decided to train Chi a little bit, and every time the skill leveled up, he felt his body becoming stronger and healthier. He felt full of vigor like he could face anyone, but he didn\'t let that feeling go to his head. He needed to keep his cool at all times… Still, he felt pretty satisfied while looking at his status screen and the results of six weeks of work.

"I have neglected Spiritual Core a little bit, but it was for a good reason…" Billy thought.
Thanks to Chi, Billy could fight the monsters inside the dungeon and barely ever ran out of stamina. His muscles would begin to hurt after a while, but it was just a minor nuisance. Besides, even those recovered pretty fast now. All thanks to Recovery and Chi. Regardless, Billy\'s magic cart had a lot of time to obtain fuel, so Billy also increased the size of the tank. He probably could keep going for a while with that operation by using the vehicle while transporting the immigrants. However, this time, they will have to walk due to their sheer number.
Since she only saw Billy working now, Rosalie only heard about the tunnels when the night of her second day in the dungeon town started. This time, Billy and Gilles weren\'t going alone. Rosalie, her crew, and even Svan were going to infiltrate the closest town to the border. At that point in time, Svan was already used to the vehicle\'s speed. Still, since he and the newcomers were on the second wagon attached to the magic cart, they looked like they were about to throw up when they reached their destination. The place was called Filiagalia, and even though she couldn\'t believe their moving speed, Rosalie realized that they truly had arrived at that place when they climbed the stairs and appeared in a dark alley. From that spot, they could see the mansion of the lord of the town, and Rosalie recognized the place.
"This place must have some sort of group that is planning to revolt or leave on the first chance," Billy said. "We need to find such a place and then spread the word that the people can escape through here. We also need to find the barbarians that are willing to join you. However, you must be careful of their leader."
"Aren\'t you afraid that I might use this chance to escape?" Svan asked.
"You can, but you won\'t since your friends are in the dungeon town," Billy said. "Besides, your people would never respect if you abandon them or think that you escaped alone after losing them."
"You hit where it hurts," Svan said.
