Overgeared Chapter 590:
[For Isabel’s Sake]
★ Hidden Quest ★
Isabel’s mission to defend the Rebecca Church at the expense of her own life is harsh .
It is a fate that can’t be denied by the will and power of a human . Even Pope Damian can’t save her .
But you are different .
Perfectly reconstruct Lifael’s Spear and prove it .
Your blacksmithing ability is a mighty force that can destroy fate .
Reveal the absolute techniques that can’t be tolerated and become qualified to become a myth beyond a legend .
Quest Clear Conditions: Weaken the divine power of Lifael’s Spear and ensure Isabel’s safety . However, Lifael’s Spear must be stronger than the existing spear .
Quest Clear Rewards: Deity stat +1 .
‘I need to build up my deity stat in the long run . ’
Hidden quests were absolutely correct . They gave rewards that weren’t possible with normal quests . The reward of the hidden quest was a point in the deity stat . This meant that the deity stat couldn’t be raised in an ordinary manner . It was like the good luck stat . The titles Kingdom's Hero and Savior of the World gave points to all stats, but they didn’t have an effect on deity .
‘It’s natural . ’
He wasn’t expecting much in the first place . It was rather strange if it was easy to raise a stat that can obtain a special power every 10 points .
‘Well, whatever . ’
There was another headache . He needed to suppress the divine power of Lifael’s Spear, but make the performance more powerful than before? It was a shameless quest . Think about it . The main reason for the power of Lifael’s Spear was its mighty divine power . It was logically impossible to increase the spear’s power while weakening the divine power .
But .
‘I have to do it . ’
Grid grumbled as always, but he didn’t think about giving up . There wasn’t any limit on the quest duration and he wanted to acquire a point in the new stat . Above all, Grid wanted to give happiness to Isabel .
‘This is for the future of both Damian and Isabel . Don’t be in a rush . Do it slowly and carefully . ’
“ . . . ”
Grid stood in front of the furnace and thought intently . It seemed like a deeply sorrowful look . An artist who wasn’t satisfied, the stubborn craftsman . The so-called years of experience .
‘It’s nice to just stand here . ’
‘The atmosphere isn’t a joke . ’
‘I want to be like him someday . ’
The blacksmiths of Reinhardt envied Grid . It was natural for blacksmiths to respect legendary blacksmiths .
"Hrmm . "
Grid kept thinking .
‘It’s tough to raise the performance of the spear itself . What if I change the structure of the spear to a shape that fits Isabel?’
It was likely that Lifael’s Spear would be more powerful than before, as the options were dedicated to Isabel .
' . . . No, this is one of the three major artifacts of a religion . I don’t think it can be dedicated to just one person . Think about it . ’
Grid first took a normal approach . After considering the basic methods of raising the spear’s power, he planned to reconstruct the spear . But it wasn’t easy . After restraining the power of the goddess, it was virtually impossible to make Lifael’s Spear stronger with ordinary methods .
‘Wait . ’
The sun had gone down and the moon rose . Grid’s eyes sharpened as he stared at the furnace .
‘What about a change in the materials?’
Adamantium was one of the best minerals . This was why Grid perceived the materials of Lifael’s Spear to be perfect . He wasn’t willing to add another material to Lifael’s Spear, which consisted only of adamantium . But looking back, didn’t he had materials equal to adamantium?
'Belial’s bones and horns!’
Adamantium was a ‘mineral’ that naturally grew in the **** realm . But it was like a lower-grade material when compared to the body of a great demon . A dark smile appeared on Grid’s face .
‘If I make the spear with Belial’s bones, the power will be maximized . ’
Why didn’t he think of such a simple idea? Braham poured cold water on the cheering Grid .
‘Will you mix the bones of a filthy demon with Goddess Rebecca? Kuk kuk, it’s fun, but won’t it hurt the Rebecca Church?’
“ . . . Ah . ”
It was unacceptable to use the body parts of a depraved being for a divine weapon . Grid belatedly realized and got a headache .
‘It isn’t a simple matter . ’
Braham gave advice to the disappointed Grid .
'Why don’t you try magic?’
‘ . . . ?’
‘Attach magic to Lifael’s Spear . If your goal is to increase the power of the spear, wouldn’t it be simple and effective to use magic?’
Indeed, it was a simple answer . But it wasn’t feasible .
“How can I do that?”
Three steps were required to create a magic item . First, it was to imprint the magic power recovery formula so that the item could produce magic power on its own . Second, mark the item with a magic spell . Thirdly, insert the magic spell on the engraved mark .
It seemed simple, but was a very difficult task . Even the so-called great magicians couldn’t easy create magic items . It wasn’t an area for Grid, who was a blacksmith . Braham spoke proudly to Grid .
'I will teach you how to make magic items . ’
“Ah!!”
Grid was reminded of something . Who were the ones who created the strongest mineral pavranium? They were Braham and Pagma . The legendary great magician Braham was likely to know how to create magic battle gear . Grid’s eyes lit up .
“You will really teach me? I can create magic battle gear?”
As long as Grid had the ability to make magic battle gear, the type of items he could make in the future would increase significantly . It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the value was astronomical . Braham replied positively to Grid who had high expectations .
‘The making of magic battle gear was something that Pagma could do . You can do it with your skills . ’
“R-Really? Then why didn’t you tell me about it sooner?”
‘You have the potential to produce magic weapons because you destroyed Great Demon Belial and your intelligence increased from the reward . Until then, you were so ignorant that there was no hope . ’
“ . . . ”
He praised the Savior of the World title . At that moment, a notification window appeared in front of Grid .
[One of Pagma’s Descendant’s hidden pieces ‘Sealed Ability’ has been acquired . ]
[You can acquire ‘Magic Battle Gear Production Method’ by clearing the quest . ]
[A new quest has been created . ]
[Production Training]
Difficulty: SSS
The making of magic battle gear was originally just for magicians .
But in the past, the legendary blacksmith Pagma created his own unique method of making magic battle gear thanks to Braham’s help .
You can also learn from Braham how to make magic battle gear .
Quest Clear Conditions: Achieve what Braham demands .
Quest Clear Reward: Magic Battle Gear Production Method Lv . 1 .
“Braham, you . . . ”
He did so much, only to be abandoned by Pagma later on . Grid felt compassion and then Braham spoke .
'Don’t betray me . ’
“ . . . ”
The impact of being betrayed by a friend was very huge on Braham . If Grid was in Braham’s position, he wouldn’t trust a human again . Nevertheless, Braham showed a steady trust in Grid . What was the reason? Grid couldn’t help asking .
"Braham, why do you like me?”
Braham shouted angrily . ‘W-What!? W-Who likes you?’
Braham denied it, but he felt favorable towards Grid and was a lot of help . Why? It was because Grid’s nature was different from Pagma . Unlike Pagma, who betrayed his friends for his cause, Grid was a person who cherished every friend . Braham had been expelled from the world of vampires and his personality gradually changed over hundreds of years . He also wanted to be important to someone .
‘Che . ’
Why was his heart weakening? It was from the time when Mumud was his disciple . Braham was jealous of Mumud’s talents, intercepted his achievements, and made up his mind to erase Mumud from the world . However, Braham couldn’t kill Mumud . Later, Mumud was busy trying to cure his illness .
‘ . . . ’
Mumud . The innocent smile of a man who was more lovable and naive than anyone else .
Grid prompted Braham . "What are you doing? Quickly teach me the Magic Battle Gear Production Method . "
‘Right . Start with learning how to forge metal with Magic Missile . ’
“ . . . ?”
‘Do it 10,000 times . You need to hit the metal with Magic Missile that number of times . ’
"?????"
Couldn’t it be a bit easier? Grid didn’t understand why he had to suffer every time .
***
Lauel faced himself in front of a full-length mirror .
"Lauel, you know that you are perfect in every way . ”
His talent had already transcended the human realm and was enough to earn the jealousy of the gods . Ah, perhaps that was why?
" . . . I’m under a terrible curse . ”
It was a curse that his military talent was merely at this level .
"Lauel, you are not qualified to lead the army . ”
Lauel had a strategy to quickly end the war by targeting Reinhardt’s weakness . It was a great strategy to make sure all the members of his team did their best, but Lauel felt that he was lacking .
‘I can’t cope with variables flexibly and can’t handle a war that changes in real time . Someday, I will make a big mistake and cause the army to fall into a crisis . ’
His role was the chief of staff, not a general . He needed a talented person who was cool and charismatic, while having excellent skills . Piaro and Asmophel? They were lacking . They were able to win battles, but weren’t wise enough to win a war .
'Of course, it might be different if Asmophel grows further . ’
Was there someone who could take over Asmophel’s role until Asmophel’s talent fully blossomed? Lauel’s face was ugly as he thought for a long time .
“ . . . N-No one?”
Overgeared Guild . He couldn’t deny that they had the best talents, but most of these talents were biased towards individual force . Lauel felt desperate .
“Kukuk . . . It can't be helped . I need to secure new talent from outside . ”
How? The method was obvious . Recently, the honor and authority of Overgeared was tremendous . At this moment, many people were working hard out of a desire to join Overgeared . Lauel planned to use this .
"Toban, hold a large-scale tryout for Overgeared . Preach my will to the world right now . I will wait for those who will gain the honor of sharing my destiny . ”
“Ah . . . In other words, advertise a job availability around the world?”
“ . . . ”
There were no romantics in Overgeared . Lauel was depressed .
