Overgeared Chapter 136:
Chapter 136
There was an old saying in games that levels were bullies .
That saying was also established in Satisfy . Satisfy mightve revolutionized the world by implementing the first virtual reality system, but it was a game at its core . In Satisfy, level was the most primitive and important concept .
10 stat points were gained every time the level increased, and users would become stronger as their stats increased . The higher their level, the stronger a user could become because they could wear good items or acquire powerful skills . It wasnt just for these simple reasons . The higher the level, the more the unique functions of the stats showed .
Lets take the strength stat for example .
If the users level was less than 100: The user had 0 . 1 attack power, 3 health points and the weight limit increased by 20 with every point .
But if the users level was above 100, it would be 0 . 2 attack power, 5 health points and a weight limit increase of 30 points per every point in strength . Once the level was above 200, attack power increased by 0 . 3, health by 7 points and the weight limit by 40 per point .
In this way, the effect of the stats increased every 100 levels . This was called the stats awakening . The effect of the stats awakening was huge, so the higher the level, the better the effect .
However, that was almost unrelated to Grid, who had a legendary class .
A mere level 170 was able to knock down four rankers over level 200 and kill dozens of griffons who were level 260 . He easily hunted hundreds of griffons (thanks to Toban properly acting as bait), so he was a scammer who transcended the concept of level .
The epic hidden classes are classified as powerhouses, and Grid is a legendary class… Im speechless .
They camped in the griffon habitat and spent all day and night hunting . Toban suddenly wondered, “Grid, how did you get a legendary class?
A lot of effort was needed to become a hidden class, so it was almost like winning the lotto . It was basic common sense, but Toban wanted to know the specifics . He wondered about the process Grid went through to become a legendary class . Listening to the story would be fun, and he could use it as a reference .
But these were never pleasant memories for Grid . He didnt want to recall his worst memories of the several months of suffering, where he died dozens of times and lost most of his possessions .
Dont ask…
Toban verified Grids dark expression and gave up on listening to the story .
He is furious . He mustve suffered . Indeed, getting a legendary class wouldnt be easy… I would rather leave this place…
They had been hunting in the griffon habitat for the past four days . In the meantime, Grid had gained 10 levels and reached level 180 . There was the feeling that Grid wanted to reach level 200 here .
But it was hard for Toban to bear . For the past four days, he hadnt acquired any experience or items . He was forced to wear Malacus Cloak and act as bait, while Grid reaped all the rewards . His number one position on the paladin rankings that he had firmly guarded for months might be taken away by the second ranked Damian .
Toban was nervous about this and prompted . Grid, lets stop hunting now . Dont you have to clear your quest?
Hrmm… Grid was troubled .
The griffon habitat gave a lot of experience, so he wanted to stay here until level 200 .
The difference between level 180 and level 200 is huge…
But it was an unreasonable decision .
It took four days to gain 10 levels . It will take at least eight days to gain 20 levels, but I am reluctant to delay it that long .
To be honest, he felt a little bit sorry for Toban . He treated Toban as a slave, but he started to feel some remorse after a day or two .
Hes a ranker so he cant serve any longer for free… It will be good to end it here .
It was the day when he felt remorse for taking advantage of someone! He never even imagined it .
I need to be tougher in order to survive in this harsh world…!
Why did God make him so naive and nice? Grid felt some resentment towards God as he made preparations to leave .
“Lets go .
Ohh!
Toban exclaimed . He was relieved about finally being able to escape from acting as griffon bait . Now it was time to go to the Judar Church . Grid wanted to finish this quest quickly . Toban wanted to regain his freedom .
Then the two people arrived at the Judar Sanctum in less than a day . Toban paused in front of it .
“Leader Pascal is aiming for the Holy Light set . Perhaps he will be hostile towards you . There might be a fight, but if so, I wont be able to help you . Do you understand?
I am used to fighting alone .
Grid wasnt particularly worried . How could the leader of the Judar Church be stronger than the pope? He thought he would win if they fought . But before that, he had to check his status again .
Know yourself before knowing the enemy . Status window!

At level 100, he gained 0 . 2 attack power per every point in strength and 0 . 5 magic power per every point in intelligence . In addition, stamina gave 0 . 2 defense per point . When summing up, he rounded off the decimal point .
Grids base damage, magic power and defense were abnormally higher than users of the same level . This was because hed acquired many stats through the production of items . But Grid wasnt satisfied . He didnt like the damage and defense figures applied from the items he wore .
The +5 Dainsleifs attack power was 549~772, but due to the 25% penalty only 412~579 was applied . In addition, there was a 40~55% penalty for his armor, so the value wasted was too big . It caused a feeling of loss .
Being able to wear all items is fraudulent, but the penalty system is really annoying . If Im going to be a scammer, make me a scammer . Why is there the penalty system?
It was okay for now . When he killed the pope, he was 30 levels lower and his defense was much worse .
Sigh… Okay!
He thought positively as he entered the Judar Sanctum . He handed the paladin blocking his path the letter of recommendation from Isabel and said, “I came to see Leader Pascal .
The paladin checked Isabels introduction letter and quickly opened the way .
Welcome Mister Grid . The leader is waiting .
…?
It was hospitable? Grid was surprised by the unexpected response and looked back . Toban was hiding behind a pillar . Toban sent him a whisper .
-Grid, I’m sorry but I cant enter with you . Im afraid that the leader will be angry if he sees me .
Coward…
In the end, Grid entered alone . Then he faced all types of delicacies . The 11th leader of the Judar Church, Pascal warmly welcomed Grid .
“I am honored to meet the person who received the blessings of Goddess Rebecca and God Dominion!
Pascal was an ambitious person . But his ability to read the situation was excellent . He heard that Grid defeated Malacus and was recognized by the Rebecca Church and Dominion Church, so he knew how foolish it was to be hostile to Grid .
Besides, there was no reason to feel hostile . If the popes position became vacant, Pascal was be the first candidate to become the next pope, even without the Holy Light set .
Rather, things have become easier .
At the moment, there were few people in the Rebecca Church with the talent to become pope candidates . And the leader of the Dominion Church wasnt a greedy person . Pascal was convinced that he would become pope . He felt strong gratitude towards Grid who caused all of this .
“I would like to hear your story about how you defeated the demon Malacus and the corrupt Pope Drevigo . Now, go ahead and sit . The food we prepared for you will become cold .
“…”
On this day, Grid increased his affinity with Pascal, a pope candidate . Then the pavranium safely received God Judars blessing .

Good!
This long journey was finally heading towards the end . Now he just needed to receive the blessing of God Yatan and the quest would be complete .
Pascal spoke to the excited Grid, “But Grid, it is virtually impossible to find the sanctum of the Yatan Church . Theyre very secretive . so the location of their sanctum has never been exposed in history . You said that you need God Yatans blessing? It might become possible at some later date .
“…”
Pascals words were true . Grid communicated with Toban afterwards, but they couldnt figure out the location of the Yatan Sanctum . It seemed like it would take a long time before he could discover it .
In the end, Grid was forced to return to Winston without achieving his goal . Winston was boisterous when he returned .
What? What is this event?
The users were excited . At the entrance to Winston, there were many famous NPCs and soldiers, including Phoenix . Even Lady Irene showed up . The Tzedakah Guild were also gathered, and it was rumored that they had gone under Lady Irene a while ago .
“Perhaps the king is coming?
Wow, it must be . The king probably heard rumors about Winstons development and is coming to inspect it directly .
It wasnt easy to see the king of a country . There was a rumor that just seeing a king could cause a positive effect on their stats . How spectacular would the procession be? Thousands of users were gathered like ants all over the walls and square as they watched the gates with anticipation .
Then after a while .
Finally, the gates opened and someone entered . The soldiers verified the identity and blew their trumpets once, then the knights drew their swords and saluted the person . Then people smiled brightly and blew pollen .
However, they werent enthusiastically welcoming the king . No, it wasnt even an NPC, let alone the king . It was a scruffy user who looked like a beginner . The man had a hat to completely cover his face and ID, like he was expecting the attention . Then Lady Irene ran to the man .
Huh?
The users watching the situation simultaneously cried out . Irene was praised as the goddess of Winston due to her beauty and kind heart, making her loved by many male users . So why was she hugging this scruffy and suspicious looking man?
Ive missed you so much .
Irene stared at the man with an expression of love . It was an unbelievable sight .
W-What is this?
Why did such a beautiful and noble NPC like a user like this? While the users were feeling stunned, Jishuka, one of the most beautiful women in the world, also approached the man . She had a bright smile on her usually cold face .
You came back safely . I was waiting anxiously .
Keok…
The users were dumbfounded . Winstons lady was from an influential NPC family and this mysterious man was also welcomed by the top ranker and beauty Jishuka . This scene became a huge issue and was reported to the media around the world . Of course, there was a hot debate on the Internet .
“Oh, I wonder who that man is?
After dinner .
Sehee was sitting next to Youngwoo on the couch and showed interest in the mysterious man appearing on the news . Sehee had no direct experience with playing Satisfy, but she often watched it on TV, so she understood why it was such a big issue .
He looks like a beginner and a fool at first glance, so why is he loved by such big shots?
Sehee asked the question and the yawning Youngwoo explained, Thats me .
…Huh?
“I was away for a while on a quest, so everyone was welcoming my return .
Hehe… Dont I have a lot of popularity?
Kwajijik!
The TV remote control in Sehees hand made a strange breaking noise . Youngwoo clicked his tongue . Wow… Even if the control is 10 years old, how can it break like this? Wow, the maker of this is really bad . We shouldnt buy a TV from here again .
Bah!
Sehee glared at her brother and went to her room . Once Youngwoo was left alone, he couldnt endure the fatigue and dozed off on the couch .
“… The first night… Huhuhu!
The sound of sly laughter echoed through the living room .
Too busy tomorrow so have the chapters today instead . Also, no Q&A this month .
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week .
