Chapter 86 - Offer (2)



"I guess I need to practice it more until it becomes a skill," Billy nodded to himself.

When Billy went to check Kate\'s condition the next day, he frowned when he saw her in the living room. He immediately used Appraisal, so he noticed that the virus status was still there.

"Good morning, Billy," Kate said while she was walking around the living room slowly. "That message that you did yesterday sure improved my health."

"You might want to rephrase that… by the way, don\'t mention to anyone about that, all right?" Billy asked. "While the massage helped, I think that your health has been improving a lot on its own. I don\'t want to make people think that I healed you."

"I suppose that would be troublesome," Kate said. "Don\'t worry, your secret is safe with me."

"What secret?" Billy frowned. "Anyway, where is your father?"

"He fainted after seeing me out of bed. He is resting in his room right now," Kate said.

That was understandable. If Billy were in his position, he probably would be so shocked that he would probably cry. Regardless, Billy couldn\'t celebrate yet, he had to check Kate\'s lungs, and by using the same excuse of the previous day with a massage, he checked it. Much to his surprise, while the status was there, he could feel that the weird feeling in her lungs had grown weaker. His idea was working, and only five percent of his mana had been used. So, things were proceeding favorably.

Billy recalled how medicines worked against most viruses on Earth. Antiviral medicines work differently depending on the drug and virus type. Antivirals can: Block receptors so viruses can\'t bind to and enter healthy cells. Boost the immune system, helping it fight off a viral infection. Lower the viral load, amount of active virus in the body.

Billy was pretty sure that his mana was doing the first two things, blocking the virus and boosting the immune system. The question was: would it be enough? It was hard to say… he would only feel less uneasy if he didn\'t feel any traces of the virus in her system… It was also weird that he could feel the virus in a single part of her body.

Over the course of the next few days, Billy realized that the virus grew weaker and weaker, not to mention, his mana in her lungs was being consumed at a slower rate… probably because the virus was getting weaker.

"I just hope that once I return, her situation won\'t suddenly get worse, and she will be one step closer to death…" Billy thought and then gulped.

That was something Billy saw happen many times… in TV shows, cartoons, and movies. Still, considering that he would be away for three weeks, he used more mana on her lungs just to be sure. If that doesn\'t solve the problem, then Recovery will probably do the trick. In any case, two days before the date of the next mission, Edward finally recovered from his surprise and came to greet Billy.

"I don\'t know how I can thank you, Billy," Edward said.

"I didn\'t do anything aside from talking with her," Billy said. "Still, you should be careful… she apparently is on the path of a full recovery, but sometimes…"

"Yes, I am aware of it… some diseases disappear and return much more violently than before," Edward said. "However, I have a feeling that this isn\'t the case. Besides, I gave up on my daughter once, but I won\'t do it anymore. I will die first before letting her suffer in bed for many years."

Billy wasn\'t so sure of that. After all, what happens once happens twice. Still, he couldn\'t judge the man since he had already lost someone to that disease. If Billy were in his position… Billy knew that he wasn\'t that strong, mentally speaking, so perhaps he would have given in to despair in a manner way worse than Edward.

"Putting that aside, I heard that some of us are going to the bridge to speed up the finishing process," Billy said. "If you don\'t mind, I would like to go as well."

"Certainly… but what about your answer?" Edward asked.

"Considering that she is in the path of a full recovery, shouldn\'t you use this chance to let her find someone for herself instead of forcing her to marry someone much younger?" Billy frowned.

"I am afraid she doesn\'t know that many people, and she is already at a suitable age…" Edward hesitated.

"You bragged dozens of times about how pretty your daughter was… I am sure she can find a suitable partner in the blink of an eye, someone of appropriate age as well," Billy said.

Edward seemed a bit perplexed by Billy\'s statement. While he wasn\'t wrong, it still was a bit weird… For people in that world, Billy\'s actions didn\'t make sense. The sick girl was recovering. She was absurdly pretty and was the sole daughter of someone important. There was nothing to be unsatisfied with. However, Billy operated following his own code. With his mental age and his preferences, anything but milfs were out of the question.

"Well, I suppose that is fine. I will let her choose her husband," Edward said with a large grin on his face.

"Sure…" Billy frowned.

In the end, Billy received the permission to go to help with the work on the bridge. Just like Edward, he was pretty interested in how things will change in the town with the arrival of goods produced in other states. Speaking of which, while he didn\'t have the money to buy them before, he saw some fruits that could restore Hp, Mp, and Sp while he was in Vergena. Creating an alchemist shop probably will be a good way to make money without raising any suspicions…
