Chapter 290 Fear (9)

In the next few days, Billy and the others heard from the spies that the population was beginning to receive weapons from the soldiers. That put him even more on guard since it didn\'t make sense to arm them when they were tired of traveling. It was hard to imagine that they would be happy marching again, so Billy assumed that they would fight right there.

"Jeannette lost two wars by using common tactics. I suppose this time she will play on the defense since she is wary of me," Billy thought.

That was really troublesome since Billy didn\'t know what to wait for. He couldn\'t prepare anything against her. Billy wasn\'t bad at improvising, but he would like to avoid that in the current situation. In any case, while he was looking for news and for his chance to come, Billy kept training his skills and increasing the size of the tunnel. While he was doing that, he had an idea. It was a bit dangerous, but it might give him a chance that he was looking for. So, he began to transform the earth of the walls of his tunnel into iron.

"Are you planning to lock her here?" Gilles asked.

"So you understood the point of my actions," Billy said. "You are half right. I am planning to lock her here since even someone strong physically would need some time to break those walls. However, I am doing that to prevent her from rampaging. I will fight her here."

Svan and Gilles understood a long time ago that Billy wanted to face Jeannette alone. Still, he wasn\'t reckless enough to do without a proper plan. Still, only someone like him would be able to create a cage and then face such a terrifying woman there. Considering the recent rumors, even if he knew that he had Resistance against her mind control, Svan would find himself hesitating. They were called barbarians, but they didn\'t treat their enemies like Jeannette treated her allies for a few failures. In the first place, she was a dumbass for leaving everything in the hands of others. Regardless, it took Billy one week for him to finish things in the tunnel. He got only satisfied when the whole cage had walls and ceilings that were half a meter deep. After that, he began to dig toward Jeannette\'s castle.

"She uses magic, but I wonder if she will notice my approach if she does… Then this whole plan will be useless," Billy thought.

Over the course of the next few days, the spies told them that the population was starting to feel restless. Most of them had weapons now, but they didn\'t know when they were going to fight. Not to mention, Jeannette\'s plan to make Billy look like a monster was starting to bite her in the ass since the people didn\'t want to fight such a terrifying person. It was another sign that she didn\'t think things through.

On the third week of his stay in the capital, Billy had finished the tunnel, and the last part was right below the castle. While it was a bit weak from the distance, Billy could feel a large mana pool above him. Now and then, Jeannette would move from that spot, but she didn\'t do anything like bringing people to prepare an ambush. Her guard was low.

"I will bring her down here. In the meantime, you should guard my cart and then use it to return with the others in case I fail," Billy said. "Her control might disappear if I defeat her, so you should prepare to calm the people. Either way, prepare for both outcomes.

"Well, I wish you luck…" Gilles said.

"I have the feeling that you will manage, so let\'s celebrate this once everything is settled," Svan said. "I will introduce you to my daughter."

Billy sighed. He disliked that type of conversation, after all. Despite his words, defeat does not even cross his mind. He was about to become dad two times in a few months, so he was going to do whatever it took to win, and it make sure that Jeannette won\'t cause any more problems to him.

Once Gilles and Svan left the tunnel, Billy took his time to concentrate. He had fought against armies before, but it was the first time he was going to face someone like him. That battle will be more complicated since he was alone, and the enemy might have tricks like the abilities that Billy learned by using his previous life knowledge. In any case, after concentrating for half an hour, Billy touched the ceiling of the tunnel and then took a deep breath. He opened a hole in the tunnel and made the ground above the sink in the next moment. Near instantly, a blond, blue-eyed girl appeared while sitting on a throne. Billy didn\'t waste time looking at her. He quickly covered her with the ground that he had just made appear.

"You…" Jeannette said, but then Billy covered her whole body with the earth.

Billy tried to crush her whole body with the pressure of his Earth Manipulation, but she was fighting back, and somehow, Billy failed at doing that. He sealed the hole in the ceiling without any other choice, and then Jeannette used that chance to free herself. The block of earth surrounding her body exploded, and she appeared without a single scratch on her body.

"You must be the famous Billy," Jeannette said while she was cleaning her green dress from the dust. "You are not half bad in terms of skills and looks."

"Are you seriously starting that kind of talk right now?" Billy asked. "You are from Earth. You certainly know our history, what happens when people get greedy and think of themselves as better than the others. You are still willing to do that crap here?"

"Wakanda nonsense are saying?" Jeannette asked. "We were born here to fight until the best of us all emerge victoriously."
