BXBX NOVEL Chapter 712 Trait (2)
Some enemies fell just by that, by some others managed to strike back, and while Billy felt some stings in his body, the wounded enemies managed to recover a little. Billy soon found the skill that they had, which helped them with that… it was truly way different than anything he had seen thus far, but it made sense since they were aliens from another planet. It was only natural that they could develop things that he couldn’t understand.
Bloodthirsty: a trait of the werewolves and some monsters that grant them the ability to heal themselves by causing damage.
That was some useful skill to have… Billy wanted that, but it seemed that it was something in their DNA that lent them have that kind of power. Billy didn’t know if he could alter his own without becoming something like a monstrosity mass of flesh. He played too many zombie games…
Luso was a bit more impatient than Totaic. Instead of using the spirits like that, he just made them increase his speed and strength. Thanks to that, each of his strikes knocked down one enemy at a time with every single hit, that when it didn’t kill them after landing a punch on a good spot. There wasn’t much that they could heal when their vital organs were smashed, after all.
Billy returned to focus his eyes on Alexander and Natalie. At the moment, they were having a showdown while facing two of the enemy’s generals. Although they looked vicious, the werewolves weren’t unreasonable creatures, and they had some sort of pride. That’s why they didn’t send more of their generals to take those two down.
Still, that was a bad move considering that Natalie and Alexander clearly had the upper hand. Things would have been a bit tougher without their armor, but they were also holding back a little because they didn’t want to show any openings and all the cards they had.
“Are they cautions of me as well?” Billy thought when he felt the gaze of the three remaining generals. “I showed my magic to them, after all…”
Just like them, the enemy wanted to learn as much as possible, but since time wasn’t on their side, Billy decided that they had to make their move first. Besides, while those three guys were powerful, Billy couldn’t feel that much mana coming from them… So, they didn’t have enough mana to keep a wyvern down for so long.
While Billy didn’t want to use his innate skills more than he had to, he couldn’t fall for an obvious trap. The enemies clearly were waiting for him to approach, so he used Absolute Thievery on them. Unfortunately, the skill didn’t work.
“That son of a bitch… He even gave them countermeasures against that…” Billy thought.
Something was off… even if the enemy had countermeasures, they shouldn’t have been that good… it should have come with some cost. Still, Billy didn’t feel the enemy’s mana decreasing. Unfortunately, he didn’t have time to analyze all that. He had to make his move and as quick as possible before too many armies showed up… he could feel many, many presences approaching in the distance.
“Let’s see… let’s try to copy Lucyna,” Billy thought.
It looked like Uvish alerted the enemies and gave them some countermeasures against Billy’s abilities, so he had to use something that they didn’t know yet. The process of stealing status was a bit different than stealing mana and experience since it was temporary. Still, in simple terms, Billy had to steal all the magical capacity that some parties of the enemy’s bodies had. It was like using handcuffs to stop someone who had some powerful punches.
With that in mind, the reverse process should work to enhance the bodies of his allies. Billy put that plan into action, and he could feel his body getting heavier and weaker as he transferred his speed and strength to Alexander and Natalie.
“Now!” Billy told them via Telepathy.
Natalie and Alexander reacted at the same moment. They didn’t know if it was Billy who said that, but they felt the power on their bodies, and then they charged a lot faster than before while also using Body Enhancement in the blink of an eye. Before any of the enemies could react, they suddenly appeared with their weapons piercing the bodies of the two werewolves in front of them.
Alexander and Natalie suddenly put the bodies aside and readied themselves to fight the others. Still, they noticed that the remaining generals didn’t even blink at the death of their allies.
“I thought that they were prideful… But they don’t have any sense of comradeship?” Billy frowned. “Something is off…”
Most likely, they had one hour before the enemies got close enough to invade the continents. So, Billy decided to make his move. He grabbed his glaive, and then he saw the Aura of the enemies changing. It felt like they only wanted to fight him, and their goal of the invasion was for the sake of that… in any case, those three werewolves split, and Alexander and Natalie looked at Billy.
“Keep your guard up. I will deal with the big one,” Billy declared.
The one that didn’t move was slightly taller and larger than the others, but the real important thing was the fact that his Aura was a lot different. Billy could see in the enemy’s eyes that he wasn’t being manipulated and that killing Billy was something he had to do no matter what.
Although he was curious to know what kind of shit Uvish told him, Billy didn’t have time to ask, nor did he has an interest in talking with someone targetting his new home planet…
