Reasons (8)

Although the number of encounters was small in the beginning, they increased the more Billy proceeded. The mine wasn't exactly spacious, so most people would have a hard time fighting the Golems. Still, Billy didn't stop fighting a single time. He just killed them while running with his lightning bolts. It was better that way...1

Despite the encounters, Billy reached the end of the mines pretty soon, and as expected, he found a bigger room, and the core of the dungeon was floating right in the middle of the ceiling. Billy pointed his hands toward it and used Lightning Bolts. Still, several Diamond Golems suddenly appeared and blocked his vision of the target.

As expected, they were a lot tougher than ordinary iron golems. Although most golems turn into dust once they are killed, their body properties remain the same as their core until that happens. As such, those golems were strong against electric attacks since their bodies were covered by massive crystal-like diamonds. Billy wanted to understand the logic behind that. Still, just like a lot of things in that world, he never understood even after thinking for days…

In any case, the very moment the Golems landed, Billy used his water Transformation and then covered them with ice from neck to toe, and then he charged, ready to use Light Spear. Billy didn't hold back and used all his buffs. Thanks to that, his attack easily destroyed the head of one of the Golems and damaged the core, killing it, but his chain spear also suffered some damage.

The monster also didn't give Billy that much experience. It was probably because the difference in level wasn't that high. Nevertheless, Billy chose his next target, and then he realized that others Golems were falling…

"What happened to the rules? Shouldn't a core have a single guardian?" Billy asked and then clicked his tongue.

His main weapon won't last for long like that, Billy had to think of another way to solve the issue, and he found an answer quite fast. It seemed a bit reckless, but he decided to use fire against fire. He enchanted the tip of his spear with Earth magic to make it as hard as possible and then infused mana. Then he charged toward the enemies before using Flash.

Billy disappeared, but then he appeared in front of his target and, with his spear piercing the creature's head. As expected, the momentum of flash granted him some extra power while keeping his stance. That was why his spear pierced the enemy's head so easily… The only problem was the fact that his right arm felt the impact all of a sudden, and that hurt like hell. Still, Billy decided to keep using that strategy.

Billy attacked the Diamond Golems nonstop, but the core still kept summoning them. Still, he didn't stop and waited for his chance… That chance appeared when Billy had killed around thirty Golems. Their bodies had dissolved enough to the point that Billy could see their diamond cores. Secretly, he grabbed them using his Earth magic, and when they were put together, creating a thick tip of a spear, Billy fired them from the ground toward the core while was focusing on dodging.

He tried to get the core by surprise. Still, it reacted fast enough to summon another diamond golem to block the attack despite that. The attack was stopped, but Billy jumped with all his might. You grabbed the spear and then added his strength to the attack. The core summoned more monsters to stop him, but Billy's strength surpassed all that and forced the Golems to hit the core and smash it.

Billy frowned when he landed and saw those last notifications, his Earth magic skills got a lot of experience for whatever reason. In contrast, he didn't get that much… He wondered if it was because the core was destroyed.

"I guess the nature of ordinary dungeon cores is different from the titan ones… Still, they can give me a lot of experience at once.

Hunting normally would be better in the long run, but Billy didn't have time for that. Regardless, now that Billy had destroyed a dungeon core, he didn't know what was going to happen. He never did that inside a dungeon… Instead of exploding like before, the entire dungeon began to collapse. That wasn't a problem for Billy, who used earth magic as much as he breathes, so he just left the area while using Flash after getting the diamond cores.

"I suppose Kate and Natalie aren't the type who likes jewelry, but it is better to give them something like this," Billy thought while he was escaping. "Still, they only think that giving them gifts would be because I screwed up somehow. Well, meh, whatever. Let's just make some rings or necklaces out of this"

Billy didn't take even fifteen minutes to clear the dungeon, so he was starting to think that the mission would be pretty easy, at least half of it. However, he changed his mind when he left the mountain and saw a small army heading in his direction. It seemed that Icarus failed at his job, but Lucyna looked pretty pleased with that change of events.
