Chapter 145
Grid started appraising the items he acquired after the struggle with the awakened guardian .
[Blue Orichalcum]
Orichalcum is a mineral born with the power of moonlight and the Guardian of the Forest .
It is impossible to erode the Guardian of the Forest’s magic power, but it has the best hardness and strength among all minerals .
It is lightweight and becomes much stronger in darkness .
* Advanced blacksmith skills are required to smelt it .
Weight: 3
[Purple Orichalcum]
A mineral that can only be obtained when the Guardian of the Forest has awakened under two full moons .
It holds a unique magic power that boosts attack power and magic power . But unlike the blue orichalcum, its strength is extremely poor .
It isn’t suitable as a raw material for battle gear . However, it is a good material to use for making accessories .
* The blacksmith skill must be mastered to smelt it .

“I’m getting goosebumps . ”
Grid noted that the awakened guardian dropped exactly 14 blue orichalcum . He shuddered at the thought . A total of 15 blue orichalcum ores were needed to make Failure . However, only 14 blue orichalcum ores were dropped, as if someone knew this and wanted to mess with him .
“I would rather it give a lot less than 15 than to be teased like this and missing just one ore of blue orichalcum . . ”
What if he hadn’t obtained three blue orichalcum from Administrator Valdi a few months ago? Wouldn’t he be lacking just one material to make Failure?
“It is enormous . ”
Grid calmed his agitated heart and turned to the purple orihalcum .
‘Accessories…’
Grid currently had two accessories . One was Doran’s Ring, while the other was the Ring of Pledge obtained from his marriage .
[Ring of Pledge . ]
Rating: Unique
A token of eternal love .
You will be in a ‘happy’ state when you are with your spouse . Movement speed will increase by 8% and all stats will increase by 30 points .
* Depending on your spouse’s liking, the emotion when you are with your spouse will change . Happiness, joy, contentment, normal, dissatisfaction, depression and hate . There are a total of seven emotions, and the Ring of Pledge can have different effects depending on the emotions .

* A hot night is only available once a month .

If you are caught by your spouse not wearing the ring, your spouse’s liking will fall by 90% and their chances of becoming pregnant will decrease dramatically .

Doran’s Ring had proven its effectiveness several times and was certainly a fraudulent accessory . But the Ring of Pledge was different .
The additional effects were only applied when he was with his spouse, and the increase in skills experience was only available once a month . It also wasn’t easy to accumulate affinity with NPCs of the opposite **** if he wore this ring .
To be honest, he didn’t need to wear it unless he was with Irene . But Grid had no intention of taking it off . He didn’t want to take the risk, since Irene’s liking would drop significantly if she discovered it .
He was usually an unlucky person, even if his luck had increased these days . Let’s not take the ring off .
Rather, the NPC could get pregnant? Satisfy went this far with the simulation? Grid thought it would be fun in many ways .
‘Discovering my child’s talents, educating them and helping them grow…?’
But it took more than a decade to raise a child . Considering the disparity of female users, the second generation system didn’t seem to play a very important role .
“Um… I should create a necklace with the purple orichalcum . ”
He could wear multiple rings, but only one necklace . Therefore, the performance of necklaces was overall better than rings . Grid easily made a decision .
“Okay, okay . A necklace is good . ”
He would need the help of a jeweler to make the accessory . He decided to ask Khan for a recommendation, then he looked over at the Amethyst Shield .
“This is a quest item . ”
It was the thing he was most nervous about . Grid remembered when he met Piaro in Kesan Canyon after obtaining Pagma’s Swordsmanship .
‘He wanted to punish Asmophel, who framed him as a traitor . ’
Asmophel was in the Saharan Empire .
‘Someday, I will visit the third prince in the Saharan Empire… At that time, I will meet Piaro and proceed with the Asmophel quest . ’
The Saharan Empire was very far away . It couldn’t be reached easily, so Grid placed the Amethyst Shield in a corner of his inventory for the future .
Romeo and the soldiers approached .
“Are you okay?”
They were worried . They witnessed with their own eyes that Grid was hit by a powerful flash before the awakened guardian died . They had expected Grid to die . Grid assured them of his safety .
“Have you forgotten that I received the blessing from god? I can’t die . ” After his simple and clear answer, he patted Romeo’s shoulder with a sad expression . “Deck’s death was a shame . I’m sorry I couldn’t protect him . ”
Grid sincerely meant it . He was friends with Khan and his wife was Irene, so NPCs were like humans to Grid . Deck was a promising young knight, so it was tragic that he died here .
Romeo was in tears, “His bravery will be remembered by everyone here . ”
Deck had saved the lives of many soldiers on the way here . The soldiers silently promised that they would never forget him . At that moment, the sharp cry of a beast was heard from the sky .
“What is this?”
“G-Gargoyle?”
A huge shape could be seen in the night sky . The flapping sound of the wings seemed like a griffon or gargoyle at first . Then the red body was revealed by the moonlight . It was a drake . An adult drake could grow up to 4m and they were rare monsters so strong that the griffons and gargoyles couldn’t be compared .
They was a lower branch of dragons that even had the nickname of King of the Sky . There was a surprising figure on its back .
“My Liege, have you been well in the meantime?”
It was Huroi, who obtained a second class thanks to Grid . There was a heavy wind as he landed . Then Grid greeted him, “Hasn’t it been a while? You have grown a lot . ”
Grid eyed Huroi’s combat power . 10,000 . It was 2,000 more than Knight Romeo .
‘He is over level 200 . ’
He was ahead of others despite having the non-combat class of orator . Despite his excellent gaming talent, he was affected by the limitations of his class . Now that he had his second class, he was able to stare at the position of ranker .
“This is all thanks to My Liege . ”
In the past, Grid hated Huroi . But not anymore . His perception changed after the two-man raid .
Grid smiled at him, “I’m glad that you didn’t forget about me . You should repay my grace by serving me . ”
“Huh?”
Indeed, it was a reunion after a long time . It was around 4~5 months in Satisfy time . Huroi wanted to talk to Grid about what they had been doing in the meantime . He wanted to explain how he got the drake and his fantastic adventures . He also wanted to hear about how Grid became the husband of a noble lady .
However, Grid wasn’t interested in talking . There were only around 100 users among the two billion in Satisfy who could control a drake, the strongest pets .
“Go hunt the frostlight orcs . ”
“…?”
Why did he need to go hunt mobs? Grid explained the reason to the confused Huroi,
“Don’t they drop sylphid scales? I need you to gather at least 28 . While the drop rate is low, you should be able to collect it if you hunt for 10 days or so . ”
Grid planned to make the invisibility cloak . The correct name was Hooded Zip Up . It required 20 sylphid scales in order to produce it . Before obtaining Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Grid hunted for sylphid scales but had to give up after only obtaining 12 .
While he had to give up, now Huroi had come .
‘I will create two: one for my use and one to sell to others . ’
“…”
Huroi recalled the hellish memory of being held in Winston’s dungeon for almost 200 hours .
‘Grid showed up when I was in despair and offered me the hand of salvation . ’
He also recalled the frostlight orc chief raid .
‘I was stunned and about to be hit by the orc chief, then he protected me . ’
The more he looked, the bigger Grid’s help was . He would be pleased to repay the favor .
“Then I will go . ”
It was a tremendous bleeding to be tied to one hunting ground for 10 days when he was aiming to be a ranker . Therefore, Huroi was ready to leave with no delays . Grid stopped him .
“Walk instead of flying . ”
“Huh?”
Grid pointed to Romeo and the soldiers, “If you fly, they won’t be able to follow you . ”
“What…?”
“Take these people and train them while hunting . ”
“…”
“You don’t want to?”
“…No . ”
In the end, he was forced to walk on the ground despite having a drake . It would waste a considerable amount of time . Was that all? He was also supposed to be the soldiers’ babysitter . But there was nothing he could do . He had sworn to repay all that Grid had done for him .
The descendants of Blue Wolf didn’t take oaths lightly . Huroi intended to faithfully carry out Grid’s orders .
“He has good timing . ”
Grid hummed as Huroi and the soldiers left . He wanted to make the Hooded Zip Up, but the drop rate was so low there wasn’t much merit in hunting them directly . It would waste too much time .
He was grateful that Huroi appeared when he did .
‘Sooner or later, I will make you a good item . So don’t be too upset . ’
Grid had a lot of room to spare after getting rid of his debt, so he was much less selfish than before . He had no intention of one-sidedly having Huroi do everything for him . Sooner or later, Grid was planning to give him a surprise .
“Now… First of all, I need to make Failure . ”
Grid’s body rose in the air . It was much slower than the drake, but his flying speed was still fast . The destination was Khan’s smithy .
A few hours later .
A man appeared in the deepest part of the Grey Forest . He looked at the place where the traces of battle still hadn’t disappeared .
“What? The Awakened Guardian of the Forest isn’t at a level that the Tzedakah Guild can defeat . ”
Had someone within the top 5 of the unified rankings arrived here before him?
“Tsk, I wasted my time thanks to this . I can’t come here every four months, so I missed my chance . ”
The man who disappeared into the forest had the ID of ‘Agnus’ above his head .
Grid started appraising the items he acquired after the struggle with the awakened guardian .
