Chapter 628 Counterattack (1)

For the next few days, Icarus worked hard to defeat the enemies that were teleported across the northern part of the continent. The maker insisted on attacking that area for some reason. However, eventually, several attacks began to happen at the same time, and Icarus was no longer able to stop them. The group had to move with other goals in mind instead of damage control... so, Billy made his choice.

"... It is time," Billy said. "Listen, speed will be the key here and since we will have to work separately, we will need to cooperate better than usual. The main team will watch over the five parts of the continent from above, while the others will follow them from mainland and focus on damage control. You have the tools to pull that off… Also, I will probably be too busy inside the enemy's dungeon, so I won't be able to communicate. You won't have to worry unless the enemy shows up and I don't quick follow him."

Aside from his family and the people he knew from his hometown, Billy also called his friends from other states. Camilla, Anna, Drew, Nikola, Leo, Samuel, Samara, John, Edward, Lucy, Pierre, Jean, Paule, Louise, Henri Marie, Gerald, Gustave, Rosalie, Marc, Aura, Valentin, Gilles, Laurent, Svan, Alfa, Beatrice Felipe, Sei, Ryuguin… all those guys reunited at his home to have a meeting and to receive some magic items from Billy to help with the task of protecting the five regions of the continent. All of them had been influenced in one way or the other by the attacks, so they were itching to deal with the problem…

Billy made some weapons and boots that let his friends use Flash, so their mobility had been greatly enhanced. He wished that he could have made more, but he didn't have any more time for that.

"All right… Stay close to each other and don't do anything that I wouldn't do," Billy said.

"So, we can be as reckless as we want," Natalie said.

"What are you talking about? I am never reckless," Billy said. "I also don't make mistakes, I only make eccentric decisions. Definitely preplanned. Not at all fucku ps."

"Yeah, right…" Natalie said.

"Anyway, everyone should go now… I will try to finish things on my end as fast as possible." Billy said.

Everyone nodded, and then they began to move. Billy's wives could afford to go later since they could fly faster than everyone could run. Besides, they could tell that this battle was going to be very important, so they wanted a few more moments with Billy.

"All right, now is the time to say some melodramatic words and raise all the possible death flags," Billy said.

"Your words don't make any sense…" Kate said and then sighed.

"Then how about this, once this is over, let's take a vacation and work hard on increasing the size of our family," Billy said.

"Don't say that kind of stuff in broad daylight…" Kate facepalmed.

"He is just saying that to make us relax," Sarah said. "If things get dicey, don't hesitate to run away, Billy."

"Roger that," Billy said. "The enemy's strength is unknown, but all my moves are coldly calculated. I will pull this off without any problems. Also, don't drop your guards just because you defeated an enemy in a town or city, others can reappear at those places."

After they nodded, Billy gave some passionate kisses to his wives, but he didn't go too far since his kids were watching. Anna was going to stay behind and watch over them, and even though they knew that their parents were going to stay away for a while, they didn't complain.

"Papa, be back soon, okay?" Christina said.

"All right," Billy said and then hugged his daughter tightly. "Soon enough, you inherit all my secret techniques."

Christina was starting to look and act a lot more meekly like Kate when she was younger. She was a bit of a crybaby still, but despite that, she held back her tears. That made Billy feel a sting in his heart and rage as well since he truly hated those that got in the way of his peaceful life.

"Watch over the house and protect your sisters, all right Hector?" Billy said while he headpatted his son. "Once I return, I will teach you some awesome magic."

"Okay…" Hector said while looking down.

Hector had grown a fair bit, but it seemed that he was still a bit quiet. Still, he soon showed a look of determination in his eyes. He could understand that his father gave him an important mission, and he had to succeed in it.

Helen was still too young to understand what was going on, but she stayed in Billy's arms the whole time, so she could tell that something was different than usual. She hugged him tightly for a while, but she eventually got tired and fell asleep.

"I will see you soon, Helen," Billy said while he passed her to his grandmother. "I will be counting on you, grandmother."

"Yes, try to return in one piece, then I will be able to fix you no matter what," Anna said.

"Roger that," Billy said, and then he looked to his wives and nodded.

They went to the underground training arena and then equipped their armor before leaving. After half an hour, since he didn't hold back, Billy reached the demi-humans continent, and after another hour of wait, Icarus joined the rest of the group.

"... It seems we can't afford to wait anymore," Meryl said after a long sigh. "How is the situation there?"

"Every hour, at least one city or town is attacked, sometimes, the armies managed to defeat the enemy, but half of the times they are annihilated," Billy replied.

"Their strength goes beyond their skills and parameters… when I tried to check their powers without going all out, they never ran out of mana or stamina," Icarus added.
