That wasn ’t the case. Billy only wasn ’t worried because he didn ’t have to get hit. Besides, seeing their projectiles should be easy as long as he can see the enemies. If the worst comes to the worst, he can always dodge if he fails at blocking the attacks with his spear. Regardless, once he grabbed his weapon with both hands and then approached the river. Using Block Mastery should be possible without damaging the weapon. It was only spheres of water, after all.

The red archers approached from the side, but they were farther away from the river than Billy, thanks to that, the monsters only approached the place Billy was, and without ceremony, three of them fired Water Ball. Billy swung the tip of his spear to protect his left chest from two while he twitched his neck to dodge the last Water Ball. While he succeeded with that, his spear vibrated for a while… The power of those Water Balls wasn ’t a joke. The enemies opened their mouths to fire again, but three arrows pierced their mouths and paralyzed them. Much to Billy ’s surprise, the arrows easily pierced the monsters ’ heads and killed them.

Billy shook his head and touched the water of the river. By creating some small waves, he made the corpses approach each other, and then by creating a small platform of water, he made them leave the river. The Sahatir were almost as big as him from watching up-close, but they were a bit lighter. Still, it consumed some of his mana to pull them out of the water.

”Nice work… ” Leo said. ”Their bodies aren ’t that different from normal fish. Maybe they are edible. ”

Billy hadn ’t realized that, but he was right… Still, it would take courage to eat that. Even if they try it well, there was a chance that someone would end up poisoned or with one hell of a stomach ache. Billy wouldn ’t be the Guinea pig since he was working, but… Nevertheless, while he was waiting for the next group of Sahati to show up, Billy looked toward the elementalists and saw them working in crafting some massive bars of earth. He hadn ’t tested that yet, but he saw the elementalists compressing the mass of the block to increase its durability. Transforming them into iron or other sturdier material will probably require another skill, one that they didn ’t have yet.

”There is more coming, Billy, ” Lily alerted.
