I Can Make Everything Level UP-Chapter 738: Not so troublesome spirit (1)
Although he started things on the wrong foot, Alessandro wasn't a bad guy. Once Billy pointed out that he couldn't look at his wives for more than half a second, he stopped that. Still, he was annoying, and first impressions are the ones who stay the longest.
Billy wondered if beating the crap out of someone who looks too much at his wives would be unreasonable, was him being possessive? He at least thought that he had to act a bit concerned since his wives always pulled his ear when he stayed for too long close to other women. That was the law of absolute exchange, so he thought that it was fine as long as he was careful about it. He shouldn't set a bad example of his kids either...
He had that natural air of youth and charisma that some women like, so Billy felt that was another reason for him to dislike him. Nevertheless, he took him for a tour around the city while the others were unpacking their camping gear.
"You have a lovely family," Alessandro said. "You must be struggling with the fact that your kids are copying you at their age."
"You have good eyes if you managed to notice that so fast," Billy said. "It would be a pity if you were to lose them."
"Hahaha, I know about your rumors; there is no way I would pick a fight with you," Alessandro said. "Wouldn't that be the same as suicide? I can't fly. I can't face big ass monsters. I can only fire arrows and make them land where I want. In any case, I need to talk with you about this enemy… I don't know his name, but some talked inside my head, mentioning that you might come here to take my place."
"... Oh, really?" Billy asked.
"Don't look at me like that. I am not crazy enough to listen to the words of someone who can't even show himself when telling such convenient pieces of information," Alessandro said. "Since those tremors started, I have been gathering Intel here and there, and some of your friends also helped our state. I heard that you are waging war against someone ancient… And I figured that such a guy was trying to destroy this world."
"Not this world, but everyone in it, we have something that he wants, and until he gets that, he can't manipulate anyone as he did before, so he is using those methods," Billy said.
"Hmm… I always felt that this world was supposed to have much more history and vestiges of other civilizations. Is it because of him that things are like this, and we can't learn much about our past?" Alessandro asked while pondering about the things he knew. "I suppose it makes sense…"
Alessandro was annoying, but he sure was quick to pick up important details and make correct assumptions. He would make a great ally if he didn't make a terrible first impression…
"What else did he say?" Billy asked.
"He said that he would give me whatever I asked since you have his powers and was planning to dominate this world," Alessandro replied.
"That would be too much of a pain. Making everyone submit by force wouldn't work. Rebellions would come and go like the summer and spring," Billy said. "I would rather use my influence to make others stop bothering me with their problems."
"That is the kind of lifestyle I can understand, having three gorgeous wives like that and all," Alessandro said. "Come on… Other people can't even praise them?"
"You can praise them, but if you cross the line, you might not enjoy the result," Billy said.
"I already said that I don't want to make an enemy out of you, right?" Alessandro asked. "I would prefer to live my life without making enemies."
"You already made an enemy when you refused that guy's offer," Billy said.
"Well, he is the enemy of the entire world and has been for many years, so I would say that I only came to realize that such an enemy existed," Alessandro said. "In any case, living is fun, and I am not going to join the side of someone who wants to kill everyone that I know, so you can count on me for the fight."

Billy nodded and used Appraisal on Alessandro just to be sure, and he got a pleasant surprise. He wasn't being manipulated, and he also had Heroic Archery. He could ask him to teach Lily that, and that will probably annoy the heck out of Lily, but it couldn't be helped. He readily accepted…
To save time, Alessandro helped Lily learn the skill that night, and Billy also learned just by watching. Heroic Archery increased the power of arrows and also drastically increased the chance to hit moving enemies since the user had to have good senses to predict their movements.
After that, Billy told his wives that he was going to live for a while. He needed to check the demi-humans continent for the spirits, after all. The sooner he does that, the better.
Using his armor, Billy flew to that continent as fast as he could, and once he arrived there, he flew a bit lower to find the traces of the spirits. Still, it took a while before he could find anything… With his magic eyes, it was hard to imagine him missing those.
"There is one moving in that mountain… In any case, are the spirits getting rare?" Billy thought. "How come pretty much all the adults of the tribesmen had at least one? As expected, I have to bait them…"
