  "I suppose that is good enough information to call him… It will be easier for him to spot us on the beach, do you mind?" Billy asked.

  "No, not at all," Meryl replied. "That being said, I would like to choose the spot where we are going to find your friend."

  "Fair enough, you are wary of traps and ambushes, I can't blame you," Billy said.

   Meryl guided Billy toward south instead of West where his armor was hidden. Now his plan to quickly grant it in case something happens won't work, but for that kind of situation, Billy could escape using Flash since on the coast, he wouldn't find many obstacles.

   Once they arrived there, Billy confirmed that a few of Meryl soldiers had followed them with his Earth magic, it didn't seem like they were planning to attack, it was more like they were planning to help her in case something happens. Nevertheless, Billy decided to ignore them and wrote a message to Icarus.

  'Following the southern coast, come to the western side of the continent as fast as possible, I help you recover your mana after.'

  'What? Why this so suddenly?'

  'The necromancer wants to confirm that you are my minions.'

  'Since when we are your minions?'

  'If you don't come, then you are my minion… Jokes aside, she wants to confirm that we are working together in an exchange for the relics.'

  'All right, I will be there in a second… Probably. We don't know yet the distance that I will have to cover, after all.'

   Billy was pretty sure from East to west, one would have to cross around sixty thousand kilometers to reach the other side of that continent, but that distance could as well triplicate, trying to cross it using the continent alone of the continent. Now that Billy knew that Icarus controlled acceleration in a physical and non-physical sense, he could tell that his powers basically multiplied the speed of things. It seems rather convenient to suddenly increase his acceleration by one hundred times with a single thought, but he had no idea how much in terms of mana that would require.

   In the end, it took five minutes for Icarus to show up, Billy imagined that he had to stop several times along the way to recharge his mana with the core he gave to him. He probably could use his power alongside Meditation to recover mana faster, but he wasn't patient enough for that. Regardless, Icarus a massive dust curtain while he approached.

  "I am here… You must be the famous necromancer… It is nice to meet you," Icarus said. "Since you accepted to talk so soon, you must be reasonable as we expected. My name is Icarus."

  "Meryl… You are a bit different than I imagined," Meryl said.

  "I could say the same thing," Icarus said. "Putting that aside, this continent truly is massive, even though I broke my record in terms of speed, I still needed five minutes to reach this place."

  "... What is your record now?" Billy asked.

  "O.2% of speed of light," Icarus replied.

   It sounded like a small number, but Billy knew that it was the equivalent of running at six hundred kilometers per second. That was anything but slow… it was six hundred times faster than his armor. Thanks to it, Billy started to feel stupid since he gook so much pride on the speed of his armor.

  "Lucyna won't be able to since her high-speed movement skills is different from mine and carrying would be more than a little big uncomfortable for her," Icarus added.

  "It is fine… Since your group managed to defeat the titans, then we can cooperate, but I have some demands on my own," Meryl said. "As I told you, you probably will become an enemy if you kill another reincarnated. Also, my people had already suffered too many losses because of reincarnated individuals, so I will focus on using my skeletons and zombies. They aren't as powerful as a normal demi-human, but they can do the job. Also, we will determine another place to meet that isn't near my base."

  "That is fine, Icarus and Lucyna will stay on the other side of the continent, and I can come to any place you want," Billy said.

  "All right, there is a mountain west of my base, which is fifty kilometers away, we will meet there in one week to determine our next plan of action," Meryl said.

   Billy and Icarus nodded. All of them didn't have to be there, since they could use Billy's communication devices, but that much was fine. They would need to learn more about the environment and Meryl would give them all the information they needed.

   Billy and Icarus quickly left the area and once Billy confirmed that no one was around in a ten kilometers radius, he took his armor out of the ground. In the end, Meryl's choice of meeting somewhere helped him in keeping his armor hidden. Nevertheless, he was already thinking of improving it. It seemed a bit insane to think that he wanted to make it reach Icarus speed, but that was exactly his goal…

  "I suppose I need to sacrifice some duration to improve its performance in all sense…" Billy thought.

   In any case, after that talk, Billy understood a little more about Icarus' power, considering that he mentioned light speed, most likely, he could achieve that speed with enough mana… it was probably the max that he could reach. Just like Billy could control the points of mana he could turn into experience, Icarus could control his acceleration based on a percent of light speed. Not that such a thing would help him in any way, but it was better to know.

  "Meryl didn't mention her past, and I guess we shouldn't ask why we never found other centaurs… it seems likely she lost the other members of her species a long time ago… and they probably weren't killed by other reincarnated individuals," Billy thought.
