Overgeared Chapter 351:
Chapter 351
“Youre the cause of this?
Grid received an explanation from Piaro and observed the pit in the ground . The traces left behind of the battle were impressive . He was able to get an indirect glimpse of the 1st ranked Kraugel .
He competed against Piaro, who was reborn was a legend .
In the previous confrontation, Grid was able to consume only half of Piaros life . Then what about now?
I can only decrease it by 1/4th .
Piaro had grown .
During the spar with Grid, he had woken up to the true use of farming techniques . Then after the spar, he gained the bonus of increasing his stats and greatly increasing his skills . There was also the bonus of raising his level .
Then a person who managed to compete against Piaro?
Even a normal class…
Kwack .
Grid clenched his fists with all his strength . Strange emotions sprang up, making his chest burn hot . Kraugel noticed his silence and apologized .
My first impression is bad . I apologize that Reidan suffered damage because of my personal greed . I will pay you back as much as possible .
The person who actually caused the damage was Piaro . However, Kraugel felt a strong sense of responsibility . He applied for a spar with Piaro and this incident happened, so he thought it was primarily his fault .
Grid made a snide remark at his sincere apology .
“Yes, a good answer deserving of the number one rank . Do you have a lot of money?
An earthquake had occurred in the aftermath of the battle, causing all of Reidan to shake . Just looking at Reidans smithy alone, the overall loss of wealth was quite big .
Can it be reimbursed by an individual alone? As a close brother to Piaro, shouldnt you take responsibility?
M-My Lord .
Piaro stuttered . He felt like his lord was more upset than usual .
Why?
Piaro couldnt figure out Grids heart . Asmophel was different . He could read the emotions in Grids eyes .
‘Envy and jealousy…
Asmophel was born as the second son, so he always felt these emotions . Now Grid was displaying it towards Kraugel . They were emotions that couldnt be understood by Piaro and Kraugel, who were always the best .
Dont worry about reimbursement . Instead .
Shaaaaaah–
A clear blue transparent sword appeared in Grids left hand and a black-blue greatsword in his right hand . It was Failure and Grids Greatsword .
Fight me .
…?
Wanting to randomly fight? Kraugel was baffled . He couldnt understand why things were happening like this . In addition, this was Grids city . Everything here belonged to Grid . Piaro wasnt an exception .
‘Does he mean to isolate me?
A death penalty was huge . Should Kraugel interpret it as never stepping foot in this city again? Kraugel looked grim while Grid pointed Failure at him .
Dont think too deeply about it . I am applying for a fair one-on-one fight .
A one-on-one match? If so, Kraugel welcomed it . Grid was also a legend . It was a golden opportunity to win against a legend and complete the Sword Saint quest . But Kraugel couldnt justify accepting the fight . Using a complete strange to clear his quest, his ego couldnt tolerate it .
“Why do you want to fight me?
Kraugels sentences became shorter . It was natural . Grid didnt show any courtesies to him, so there was no need to be polite .
You are called the top, or the sky above the sky? I want to see if youre really such a great person .
“Do you have the qualifications to get a glimpse of my skills?
“You’ll find out soon . ”
Grid sent a sparring application to Kraugel . This was Reidan, Grids domain . Despite Kraugel receiving a big penalty if he died, Grid applied for a duel, demonstrating that he took this fight seriously .
Sehee… No, Ruby . Use healing on him .
Are you going to fight?
Ruby asked in a testy manner . She was worried about her brother because she had seen Kraugels skills . However, she was embarrassed to show her worry, so she looked testy instead . Grid prompted her .
Hurry .
…Be careful .
Ruby read her brothers sincerity towards Kraugel and ended up using Hope . Hope was the ultimate heal that randomly recovers 10~30% of the targets maximum health . Kraugel confirmed his rising health and admired it .
Saintess…
Grids sister .
Kraugel wondered .
Territory, family, subordinates, colleagues, and friends .
Was it fun to be in such a limited space with the same group of people? Did they need to repeat what they always did in reality in the game? The world of Satisfy . It was so wide that it would take the rest of his life to explore it . As a user of the game, wasnt it right to travel around alone, not bound by anything, in order to experience new things faster than anyone else?
Sehee used Hope in succession and Kraugels health reached the maximum . Kraugel made a decision and shared his quest information with Grid .
[Sword Saint]
Difficulty: SSS
Win against a legend .
This confrontation with you might be a help to me . Is it still okay?
Grid stopped .
Sword saint . Could he give the strongest legendary class to other users? The past Grid wouldve cancelled the fight immediately . But now he was different . He was the leader of Overgeared, a lord, and the father of a child . Eyes were watching him . In particular, he couldnt take it back with Lord watching .
What would Lauel do?
Grid worried about it for a moment .
“Its also a good thing if you turn into a sword saint because of me . The 1st ranked user owing me a favor, wont you pay it back one day?
He phrased it in such a way that Kraugel owed him a favor, despite Grid being the one to propose the fight in the first place .
“And I dont think I will lose .
He expressed his dignity with an expression of unwavering confidence .
Kraugel replied honestly, “Grid, I have seen your capabilities many times on broadcast . That’s why I know it well . You can never beat me .
“Stop speaking so long .
At the time of the Elfin Stone raid . After sacrificing Huroi due to his powerlessness, Grid pledged never to feel so helpless again .
I will be the best . I will be the best and not sacrifice my colleagues again .
It was his dream, whether it was fanciful or not .
I will check it through you . ’
Step, step .
Grid walked out without hesitation . At first glance, it was an ordinary gait, but he was actually using the footwork of Pagmas Swordsmanship . He was hiding the use of his skill . Two years in real time after Satisfy opened, he was finally using the basics of the game . But Kraugel saw it instantly .
It was easy because he had keen eyes and good insight .
Kill .
Kraugel sidestepped the legendary skill and counterattacked .
“Mole Ascension .
Revolve .
Pagmas Swordsmanship . It was a relatively demanding skill that required taking an average of five steps . Grid had used it for hours over the years and gradually adapted . The skill was used at an incomparable speed to before, resulting in damage to the unique presence called the sky above the sky, Kraugel .
[You have suffered 17,500 damage . ]
The white swordsmans defense was lower than other third advancement normal classes . Moreover, he didnt wear his gloves because he was afraid they would break if they received further damage .
On the other hand, Pagma’s Descendant was a legendary class that could exert the ultimate attack power . Grid was equipped with the best items . Kraugels health was cut by a quarter in a single blow .
This was also due to the title effects and defense, otherwise it wouldve been a fatal blow . However, Kraugel wasnt shocked by Grids attack power .
‘I was wounded by a user?
There were no users who had touched his body except for Agnus, king of the dead, and the duo from Blood Carnival . Kraugels eyes sunk . It was the moment he recognized Grid as a strong person .
White Light Steps .
Susuk .
Under the sun, Kraugel disappeared from Grids field of view .
Stealth?
Grid watched carefully . He thought about what to do and pulled out Kenens Belt .
Pepeng!
Grids appearance was obscured by the smoke that emerged . But Kraugel still remained calm . He quickly saw Grids shape being covered by the smoke screen and stopped his attack .
Gone?
The puzzled Kraugel stopped as Keen Senses sent him a sharp warning . The danger came from behind him .
“If you use stealth, I will become invisible .
Grid revealed his appearance in a white hooded zipper and swung his greatsword . Pagmas Swordsmanship, Pinnacle, fell vertically towards Kraugel .
An invisibility cloak, its amazing .
Kraugel laughed to see Grid using such great items so casually . He rotated his body and swung White Fang . It was the appearance of his counterattack, Tearing the Sky, whose orbit was limited to going up .
Chaaeng!
[You have suffered 21,050 damage . ]
Cough!
Grid was hit by the powerful skill and his health gauge sharply declined . Kraugel didnt give him a break . He continuously swung White Fang and seized the momentum .
Chaaeng! Chaeng!
This orbit…!
Grid was currently armed with the Slaughterers Eye Patch . His high insight and synergy with the item meant he could reach most of the enemys attack orbit . However, Kraugels swordsmanship contained a much deeper orbit than that of Piaro .
[You have suffered 3,500 damage . ]
[You have suffered 3,610 damage . ]
[You have suffered 3,485 damage . ]
The wounds on Grid continued to increase . He tried to counterattack with Link, but Kraugel didnt allow it . He avoided or blocked everything . In the first place, it was almost impossible to hit Kraugel with a non-targeted skill . Kraugels control skills were that excellent . In the end, Grid summoned the God Hands .
Magic Missile!
Pepepepeng!
Light flashed from four direction and threatened Kraugel . Grid gave Grids Greatsword, Failure, and the Doppelgangers Greatsword to the God Hands, then used Quick Movements . He summoned Iyarugt while rushing forward .
[Over here!]
Iyarugt gave him the best sword path . The red light shot forward towards Kraugel . But Kraugel barely managed to respond . He avoided it using the least amount of movements, and counterattacked, stabbing White Fang into Grids chest .
[Critical!]
[You have dealt 8,300 damage to the target . ]
Kraugel thought it was absurd .
His defense is ridiculously high .
It was hard to imagine what type of armor Grid was wearing . However, Grid thought it was more absurd .
The defense isnt applied properly because he is only hitting my vital spots .
Hitting his vital spots every time? He was like a supercomputer, not a person .
Pagmas Swordsmanship…!
Energy gathered around Grid and surged violently like a wave .
It was the precursor of Wave .
But it wasnt manifested .
Kraugel hit Grids legs, causing the sword dance to be cancelled .
Storm Sword .
Kwa kwa kwa kwang!
As Grid stumbled, Storm Sword emerged from White Fang and hit Grids chest . Blood spurted from Grids chest, while Kraugel leapt forward and attempted to link Meteor Sword . The God Hands tried to keep him in check but it was wishful thinking . The God Hands Sword Mastery skill was still at the beginner level, meaning it was impossible to threaten Kraugel .
Meteor Sword .
The moment that Kraugel had shaken off all the God Hands and succeeded in using Meteor Sword . Blood Cry .
Chaaeng!
…!
Kraugels body shook as a strong wave was emitted . A strong tempest hit him and he lost his balance . As he started to fall helplessly, a flash came from Grid . His skin whitened and a black haze of demonic energy appeared around him .
The speed of his demonic sword was incomparable to before . It was the linkage of Blacksmith’s Rage and Blackening . It was Grids power .
Puok!
The clouds that were already torn due to Pounding Mortar scattered even more . In the center of it, Grid had stabbed Kraugels heart with Iyarugt . Blood spurted up like rain .
My Lord!
Piaro groaned .
Kraugel . As someone who was always looking for the best opportunity in a crisis, he managed to counterattack .
Puok!
White Fang flew and penetrated Grids neck . Even Iyarugt couldnt see the sword orbit, so Grid couldnt take advantage of Dorans Ring .
[How did he…?]
Ugh…! Pagmas Swordsmanship…!
Grids current health, which decreased due to Blackening consuming maximum health in exchange for attack power, rapidly headed towards the bottom . But he didnt shrink back . It was because he believed in his immortality passive .
Kraugels attacks? He could still allow attacks for five seconds . Grid judged calmly and used Restraint, planning to connect it with Link to end Kraugel . However, Kraugel used his skill faster than he could use Restraint .
Chaaeng!
The powerful kicking effect of Charging slammed Grids body to the ground .
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week .
Chapter 352
Kuwuong!
Dust rose as Grid crashed into the ground . Grid was relatively fine . No, his health wasnt very good, but he was relatively rosy . The wounds on his body were fairly recovered . It was thanks to recovering 13,000 health after wearing Dorans Ring as well as utilizing the option effect of the Holy Light Armor the moment he got kicked at close range .
But Grid wasnt satisfied .
It wouldve been better if I took advantage of it when it was a sword attack, not a kick .
His health wouldve been three times higher than it was now .
Isnt that right? Yakult .
[…]
Iyarugt was silent despite being called Yakult . He felt bad that he couldnt read Kraugels sword orbit and caused Grid to fall into an awful position .
It was the same when I fought Piaro and Chucksley . You seem to have no use .
[That…! Its because most of my original abilities are sealed! If I could really demonstrate my abilities, these guys would be nothing!]
“Well, lets say that is true .
In fact, Iyarugts rating was unique . It would be more help once the rating was increased to legendary .
The center of the depressed ground .
Suuk .
Grid, who was deeply embedded in it, slowly raised his body . It wasnt meant to be, but this break away from the battle was very important . Grids head calmed and prevailed over his frustration . He suppressed his extreme idea of relying on his immortality . Grid would use this incident to further strengthen himself .
Did I use Blackening too soon?’
Blackening consumed 50% of his maximum health to increase his damage, magic power and agility by 20% . It was a double edged sword because he could suffer catastrophic damage if hit by the enemy . Just like before .
If I used it when things were more conclusive… No, its better to use it than to save it . I wouldnt be able to threaten him if I didnt use Blackening .
The difference in skills was too great . Kraugel could avoid most non-targeted skill and find the perfect opportunity to counterattack .
Based on his attack speed and attack power, there surprisingly isnt much difference between our stats .
This was the part he was most curious about . Grid had went through the minus levels, received all types of titles, and steadily raised his stats through making items . It was right that he would have more stats than anyone else .
However, Kraugels stats were also unbelievable .
Isnt it natural?
The 1st ranked Kraugel . He was ahead of everyone else, and gained a lot of advantages from this . He gobbled up the useful quests and titles, so his stats were likely to have significant growth . He probably also did separate training .
When I was level 80…
Yes, it was before he became Pagma’s Descendant .
At that time, Kraugel had already crossed level 240 .
It was correct that there was a gap between both of them that couldnt be narrowed yet .
At least, I think hes ahead of me in combat related skills .
Kraugel was equipped with the appropriate items . His defense wasnt great, but his weapon was enormous . It was comparable to the legendary weapons produced by Grid .
…In many ways, I still have a long way to go .
Was he going to lose? The moment that thought ran through his head .
Kwaduduk!
Grids face distorted in a frightening manner . In the past, he had lived as a loser due to his lacking talent .
Lets stop losing now .
Didnt he overcome a lacking talent with effort? Some people might think it was ridiculous, but Grid was most aware of it . He was able to become Pagmas Descendant due to his own efforts .
I want to win .
Kraugel . He was praised as the sky above the sky, and an object of envy for rankers . Grid wanted to wash away the stigma of the past and start a new stage by winning against him . He wanted to be recognized as a true talent .
In order to do that, he needed to put in more effort . As much as possible .
This is the second round .
[Grids Boots have been removed . Movement speed and evasion rate have been restored to normal . ]
This was his first mistake . Grids Boots were designed to boost the power of a greatsword, but it was poison when used with the one-handed Iyarugt . The slowness and lowered evasion rate werent taken into consideration .
[Brahams Boots have been equipped . Movement speed has increased by 10% . Skill cooldown time will be reduced by 20% . ]
Brahams Boots were limited in defense, but they had excellent options . Indeed, it was an item from a legendary great magician . Grid didnt sell them and used them steadily for a reason .
[The spell Fly has been used . ]
Teong!
Grid flew up . The lightness wasnt comparable to before .
***
Pant… Pant… What?”
At the top of the pit in the training ground . Kraugel was gasping for breath when his eyes widened . It was because he saw through the smoke, Grid flying up while looking fine .
Is he a human?
He had to question it .
Sword Saint Candidate Stage 5, Virtuous Man of the West Continent, Pandeas Hero, Person who Creates Miracles, First…, First…, First…, First…
The value of all the titles that Kraugel obtained couldnt be converted into money . His attack power was unmatched and users couldnt endure it . But Grid endured it again and again . Now his health had recovered like a lie, and his momentum had risen even more .
In Kraugels eyes, Grid was like a boss monster .
He was once a subject of ridicule, but hes truly a legend .
Kraugel also had eyes and ears . The owner of a legendary class with poor control skills . A coward who overcame his shortcomings with items and his class . Now he was an overgeared person with some ability .
Kraugel was knowledgeable about Grid . In fact, he watched the video of the pope candidate speeches . But now he realized . Everyone was always growing, and Grid was the same . Grid had grown .
The proof was that he was one of the few players who managed to hurt Kraugel .
You arent slow-witted .
Grid put in more effort than other people .
‘In the first place, he wouldnt have become a legend if he didnt work hard .
Kraugel admitted it . Grid was a great person . He shouldnt be taunted by anyone .
“I will sincerely pay my respects to my opponent . Meteor Sword .
Kraugel used the skill that had been cancelled because of Blood Cry . Qi energy filled the atmosphere like meteors .
Pagmas Swordsmanship .
Kraugel rose steadily while Grid started his sword dance . It was as Kraugel expected . Grid was a character with legendary items and skills, so he would be more confident in them than in anything else . It was obvious that he would confront Meteor Sword head on .
Thats your mistake . ’
Meteor Sword was a multi-stage skill . It cut several times in a short period and every time it hit, the damage increased . This could cause terrible damage when facing it head on . Kraugel was confident, but Grid made a choice that was contrary to Kraugels prediction .
Transcend .
Kuooooh!
The flow of air caused by Kraugels qi changed . Grid absorbed the transcendent energy .
The second mistake .
It was trying to face someone with better control skills than him head on .
[Entering the transcendent mode . ]
[Your attack power is doubled and your default attacks will turn into ranged attacks . This effect will last for 30 seconds . ]
Suuk .
Utilizing the advantage of Fly, Grid floated in the air and opened up a distance from Kraugel . At the same time, the energy blades shot forward .
[You have suffered 10,700 damage . ]
Cough!
Meteor Swords course was simple . This was the limit of a targeted skill, which resulted in a restriction of Kraugels control skills . Kraugel was hit by a black energy blade and blood poured from his mouth .
Change the route…!
Kwaang!
Kraugel fell to the ground and got straight up . There were three energy blades already heading towards him . Kraugel rolled on the ground and used a skill .
Kururung!
A white cloud spread from White Fang and covered the area . It was a trick to hide Kraugels body . But it was useless . Grid had a combination of high insight and the Slaughterers Eye Patch . He couldnt detect Kraugels sword, but he wasnt completely helpless .
Grid quickly grasped Kraugels location within the clouds . It was proof of how high Grids present concentrating was .
Kwa kwa kwa kwang!
Sharp energy blades flooded towards Kraugel every time Grid swung his sword . Kraugel, who was hoping to avoid the incessant energy blades, allowed another attack .
Kuk… Is this different from the skill called Transcended Link?
Grid didnt use Transcend in the two broadcasts Kraugel had watched . The only ranged attack he used was Transcended Link . The difference between the one-time Transcended Link and the persistent Transcend made Kraugel feel baffled .
Pepeng! Pepepepeng!
A heavy rain of energy blades poured down from the sky . Kraugel used his power to avoid it and eventually regained his composure . He was truly a genius who adapted to the speed and trajectory of the energy blades .
Shortly afterwards, the heavy rain of energy blades stopped .
The duration of the skill is over .
Kraugel determined and jump up towards Grid . A wicked smile appeared on Grids face .
Fake .
Peeng!
The duration of Transcend was 30 seconds . There was still five seconds remaining . Grid once again fired energy blades at Kraugel . Unlike the ground, there was a limit to moving in the air, so Grid believed that Kraugel wouldnt be able to avoid the attack . However, Kraugel changed the trajectory of his body using the back of White Fang . It wasnt like Grids flying magic, but he seemed like he was flying through the sky .
Dodge it!
Grid felt shocked .
Haaap!
Kraugel moved through the air and reached Grid, swinging White Fang .
Seokeok!
Grids chest was badly cut . Kraugel heard Grid speak the moment he was able to link the next attack .
The third mistake…
God Hands .
He reproduced his hands, but so far he only used it for Magic Missile or wielding weapons . Indeed, it was the worst mistake .
Deopsseok!
…!
Kraugel got goosebumps . The swordsmanship was pathetic, but the four golden hands had far superior movement speed . They flew over and held onto his wrists and ankles . He was easily caught by the hands . Kraugel tried to quickly remove them, but a gap was shown .
Grid didnt miss that gap .
Linked Kill .
Super Sensitivity!
[The cooldown time of Super Sensitivity still isnt over . ]
…!
Puk .
Puk puk puk!
Just as the excellent use of skills was recognized as part of ones abilities, making use of good items was also a part of their abilities . Grid climbed the cliff persistently, despite being frustrated by his poor talent .
He defeated the sky above the sky that even famous rankers couldnt reach . The Overgeared members, who belatedly arrived, witnessed the scene and couldnt close their mouths . On the other hand, Lords eyes were shining like jewels as he was held in Rubys arms .
Lord Steim . It was the moment when the perception that Father is the best was stamped on the future absolute power .
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week .
Chapter 353
[You have been hit by a lethal blow!]
[The durability of the White Clouds Clothing (Unique) has decreased by 15 . ]
[The durability of the White Clouds Footwear (Unique) has decreased by 21 . There is a risk of damage . ]
[The durability of the White Fang (Legendary) has decreased by 9 . ]
[You wont die in sparring mode . Your health has fallen to the minimum, so sparring mode is finished!]
Kraugel had been reigning at the top since Satisfy opened . He was praised for being the sky above the sky .
I lost .
It was just after he fought Piaro and he had many disadvantages, so was this the cause of his defeat? It was flimsy .
I lost to his efforts .
There were no excuses . If he made excuses every time he tasted frustration, the present Kraugel wouldnt have existed .
Shaaaaaah–
Was it mourning for the broken sky? Dark clouds formed in the blue sky and rain poured down .
Ku…ock!
Kraugel exchanged looks with Grid as blood flowed from his body . He was about to fall when Grid caught up .
Be careful .
…?
Youll die if you fall from this height .
Grid used more strength while bluntly speaking . He was tired, so it was difficult to control his body . Kraugel laughed as his head rested on Grids neck .
“Im thankful that you saved my life .
“Of course . You wouldve lost your experience if it wasnt for me .
“…Yes, thanks to you, Im able to keep my number one ranking .
“Protect that position until I take it from you .
“It means I will have to play the game for 100 years .
“…It wont take that long .
After decreasing his body fat through constant exercise, Grid showed off his good frame, as well as his thick eyebrows and high nose . Once he entered his late 20s, he was able to look more mature and gave off a manly charm .
On the other hand, Kraugel was a man with a neutral type of charm . He was beautiful with stubborn eyes, fine skin, red legs, and well styled black hair . The two men leaning against each other while landing on the ground gave women a strange stimulus .
Its to the extent that I feel jealous .
Jishuka couldnt help laughing .
Now I am being pushed by a man .
Yura was frustrated .
I would rather see Oppa with a man rather than a woman…
Ruby had dangerous thoughts .
The two men, Grid and Kraugel, descended safely and stared at each other for a moment, while they were watched by the Overgeared members .
Can I win if we fight again?
I dont want to turn him into an enemy .
Grid felt awe towards Kraugel . The jealousy caused by an inferiority complex was completely erased . Was it the leisure of a winner? It wasnt such a simple concept . This was pure respect . He was driven to the defensive by Kraugel, who had a normal class . Grid was glad to meet him .
Kraugel also had similar feelings to Grid . Grid had the best talent, despite not inheriting talent from the heavens . Kraugel felt respect for Grid, who put in effort to overcome everything he had endured over the years .
Kraugel asked, “How do you have time to grow despite your status, family, and colleagues?
Grid asked in return . Is it possible for a person to grow alone? I cant do that .
“…I think the concept of growth that I am talking about is different from your concept of growth . But, well, I understand .
Kraugel accepted it and stood up . The rain stopped and the sun appeared again . A smile appeared on Kraugels face .
It looks good .
People crowded around the wounded Grid . They were the famous rankers belonging to Overgeared, baby Lord, Ruby, and Piaro . Dozens of people were only looking at Grid . Looking at their worried and proud eyes, Kraugel was able to see how much they cared about Grid .
He wanted to be the best . So he had to get ahead of anyone . Alone, quickly .
Grid became a new inspiration to Kraugel, who always isolated himself .
“I will see you again one day .
Then Grid caught up to Kraugel, who was trying to leave alone .
“Stop by the smithy . I will repair your items .
“I dont want to owe more than this .
“Arent you going to pay for the cost of the repairs? So it isnt a debt . Come on, let’s go .
“…
***
What happened? Jishuka asked .
How did the 1st ranked Kraugel come to Reidan and how did he face Grid? Jishuka and the Overgeared members wondered about the situation .
That…
Piaro explained honestly . The Overgeared members were filled with anticipation after finding out the whole story .
Kraugel is a close brother to Piaro?
‘Hopefully this…
‘Is it possible for Kraugel to join Overgeared?
If so, it was a jackpot . The power of Overgeared would jump by leaps and bounds .

The smithy . Grid was convinced when looking at Kraugels equipment .
‘Saurabi, spiritualist, hermit… Just like this continent mimics the culture of the west, the East Continent must be based on oriental culture . ’
The appearance of the clothing was very similar to those worn in the Joseon Dynasty .
Also .
Its like Pagmas attire .
It might be the case . No, there was a high probability that he needed to visit the East Continent . But how? As Grid played Satisfy, he constantly heard talk about the East Continent . Even the explanation of Piaros Supreme Swordsmanship mentioned the East Continent .
Grid learned something in the process . In order to reach the East Continent, he had to cross the Dead Sea . Beyond the Dead Sea? It was impossible to enter the East Continent .
How was Kraugel able to enter the East Continent?
Grid was curious . He wanted to ask Kraugel about this . But he didnt open his mouth . What did Kraugel have to do to reach the East Continent? Grid didnt want to be the impertinent person who asked for such high value information . This was also his pride .
Grid repressed his curiosity and asked, The set item effect? Take out the other two . I will repair the whole set .
This is all .
“…Do you mean you were only wearing three pieces of armor when fighting me?
In fact, it was two pieces . He didnt wear the gloves . However, Kraugel didnt give a lengthy explanation . It was just the excuses of a loser .
“It was the same when fighting Brother Piaro .
…You are great .
Grid started to repair the White Clouds clothing, shoes and gloves . As a legendary blacksmith, Grid could produce cloth-type armor with good quality, so repairing them wasnt difficult . Kraugel watched Grid and admired his dexterity, then he handed over White Fang .
Can you repair this as well?
Yes .
Grid repaired the armor and grabbed White Fang . Then he became thrilled .
Truly great .

The favorite weapon of one of the 33 great demons, Drasion .
Weight: 887
User Restriction: Level 310 or higher . Advanced Sword Mastery level 5 or higher .
There was a reason to be scared . How did he get this to +9…? He mustve spent a lot of money .
The probability of enhancing legendary equipment was the worst . Grid had a passive skill that increased enhancement rate, but even he had to pour a huge amount of money into enhancing Failure to +9 .
It was impossible to gauge how much money Kraugel wouldve spent in enhancing White Fang .
Anyway, its performance is great .
White Fang . As a great demons weapon, it was a very excellent weapon .
The options were somewhat lacking, but that wasnt a disadvantage . The few options meant that the basic attack power was unique . It was comparable to Failure, despite being a one-handed sword .
Grid was admiring it when he felt doubts .
Isnt this too weak for a weapon used by a great demon? The level limit is too low .
The material was strange . The color was reminiscent of mithril at first glance, but its hardiness was several times better than mithril .
A metal that even a legendary blacksmith cant recognize…
It was likely to be a mineral that could only be collected from hell, like the blood stones .
If I know the exact material, my proficiency in the blacksmithing skills will greatly increase…
Grid thought for a moment and opened his mouth .
“Maybe . Its possible that I can draw out the true power of this sword .
…?
Draw out the true power of the sword? Kraugel didnt know about the Legendary Blacksmiths Appraisal skill, so he couldnt understand the concept . Grid made a suggestion to the puzzled Kraugel .
“If I was to upgrade the performance of this sword, could you help me with one thing in return?
Games . In particular, items were especially important in MMORPGs . It was an unchanging truth that the 1st ranked Kraugel was well aware of . Therefore, he spent a lot of money on enhancing his equipment .
Thats right . The reason that Kraugel didnt have the full armor set was the limitation of the the white swordsman class . In this situation a legendary blacksmith was offering an item upgrade . It was an irresistible temptation .
“I am willing to accept the deal . However, I will pay the value of the upgrade if you make a ridiculous demand .
“Okay .
Grid used a skill with a happy face .

[The skill proficiency of (Understanding of Gods Weapons) Legendary Blacksmiths Craftsmanship Skill has increased by 10% . ]
Amazing…!
There was a persistent problem with legendary skills . Was it the long cooldown time and resource consumption? No, that was a secondary issue . It was basically very difficult to raise the level .
It was the same for the Legendary Blacksmiths Craftsmanship Skill . Grid had become Pagma’s Descendant three years ago in Satisfy time . He invested a considerable amount of time and effort into making items, but was only able to raise the level of the Legendary Blacksmiths Craftsmanship Skill to seven .
It couldnt be helped . After reaching level seven, his skill proficiency only increased by 1% when making unique items . But now, he gained 10% experience just from learning about a new mineral
It was a dragon material . Grid felt like everything paid off .
Moreover, the results of the White Fang appraisal are also good .
The attack power and durability increased by 100 and 200 respectively, and an additional option was added . Grid was thrilled with the performance, as he got some idea of what Iyarugt would be like if it grew to the legendary level .
In particular, the skill Heart Selection would have a great synergy with Kraugel . Kraugels godly control skills meant he could freely take advantage of Heart Selection . But there was one thing Grid couldnt accept .
A cursed item?
Grids face stiffened as he read the item description until the end . It was good that White Fangs performance was enhanced . But a curse? It was the worst curse, to be surveilled and attacked by a dragon!
…Crazy .
It seemed like he had done something wrong . After the spar with Kraugel . Grid wanted to do a favor for him, but it turned out to be poison .
Gulp .
What’s going on?”
Kraugel had an ominous feeling after seeing Grids color drain away and snatched White Fang . Then he stood like a petrified statue after checking the item information .
“…
An awkward atmosphere flowed .
Grid and Kraugel . The two men both remained silent . Grid was the one to break the uncomfortable silence first .
…Im sorry . I am ashamed .
Grid was no longer shameless . He acknowledged his own mistakes and was ready to take responsibility for them . This was because he had to maintain his honor as Lord of Reidan, leader of Overgeared and father of Lord .
Im really sorry . It wasnt maliciously done . Give me time and I will return the item to its original state .
Grid apologized again . Kraugel looked at White Fang quietly and spoke in a trembling voice .
…Amazing .
Eh… Huh?
“Seeing the hidden abilities of an item and drawing them out, you truly are a legendary blacksmith . Among the two billion users, youre the only one who can do this . It is truly amazing .
Kraugel expressed his admiration . The peak of two billion users, how many users were able to impress the 1st ranked Kraugel? It would be enough to be counted on 10 fingers . Grids ability was unique and great .
Hwik .
Hwiik .
Kraugel wielded White Fang a few times and spoke to Grid .
Thank you .
…?
Grid was stunned . Kraugels reaction was completely different from his expectations, making him confused . Kraugel shrugged at the puzzled Grid .
Thanks to you, I can now own the best item .
It wasnt an exaggeration . Kraugel was sincerely happy . The True White Fangs performance was enhanced . In particular, he was inspired by the Heart Selection skill .
I will become two, no three times stronger than before .
Kraugel was confident that the Heart Selection skill would be his greatest weapon in the future . Striking the targets heart? It was easy for him, since he had complete control over his movements .
Grid carefully asked the delighted Kraugel .
That… Is it okay? Theres a curse .
Kraugel laughed .
“Ah, you were worried . You dont have to worry about Bunhelier . I remember a verse from the folk song of the Trempet people, stating that Evil dragon, a hero sealed it 500 years ago . It is highly unlikely that Bunhelier will appear at this time .
Where is Trempet?
While ordinary users played the game by exploring Satisfy, Grid was a unique case who stayed in the Eternal Kingdom . In other words, he didnt know the names of rural areas .
And a verse from a folk song?
Grid was insufficient in this regard . He played Satisfy and often missed minor parts . Kraugel was the opposite . His senses were sharp and he was cautious about everything, so he didnt miss anything trivial . The evidence was that he remembered the folk song of a remote village in a small kingdom called Trempet .
So, what is the price I have to pay?
That…
Grid wasnt able to easily speak the price for repairing the True White Fang . The thing he most wanted was to obtain Kraugel . Of course, it was to join Overgeared . But Grid couldnt readily say this .
Wasnt the reason why Kraugel was always alone, despite being ranked 1st for the past several years, because he wanted to do it himself? Grid had to take into consideration Kraugels tendency to dislike belonging to groups . It was proof that he grew .
Grid thought about it for a while before opening his mouth .
“Tell me how to get to the East Continent .
Good .
Kraugels mind became lighter . He had inflicted damage to the territory in his spar with Piaro . Grid had protected his experience . White Fang received an upgrade . He was thankful for the help, so he could relieve his burden by telling Grid the way to get to the East Continent .
The value of this information was great . It was information that could only be completed if knowledge and information gathered around the continent for at least one year were aligned like puzzle pieces .
There is an archipelago in the sea south of the Sea Kingdom Media called Benhen . It is an archipelago made up of a total of 66 small islands .
Grid listened closely .
Kraugel sent him a provocative look .
“There is a sage present somewhere called Sticks . If you find him, you will be able to move to the East Continent .
If I can find him? Are you saying that hes hiding in a place that is hard to find?
The Behen Archipelago is a very dangerous place . You have to cross 66 islands one after another . A few high rankers became frustrated and couldnt even pass the 10th island . And Sticks usually lives on the 25~29th islands . ”
“Media… Behen… Sticks…
Grid didnt forget to take notes of the information obtained . Kraugel was shaking with excitement as he watched Grid .
What island can he reach?
Even Kraugel reached his limit at the 30th island . This island was believed to be the limit of the current users . But Grid was the one who beat him . Maybe he would be able to get something bigger from Sticks?
I am looking forward to it .
A person ridiculed as a dull-witted . Kraugel hoped that despite all the trials, despair and frustration, Grid would grow up and inspire Kraugel to grow . It was the true wish of Kraugel, who gained a precious rival .
***
Why is it so bustling?
Grid fully repaired Kraugels items . He was confused as he left the smithy with Kraugel . Jishuka, Lauel, Regas, Pon, Vantner, and the other members of Overgeared were all gathered in front of the smithy .
Their eyes were staring at Kraugel . They were hoping that Kraugel would join Overgeared .
Eh, um…
Grid was perplexed . As leader of Overgeared, he had failed to meet their expectations . Grid felt guilty and turned towards Kraugel .
How is it? Do you want to have a meal with us?
Hrmm .
Just as Grids liking towards Kraugel increased after the spar, Kraugel also liked Grid as well . He personally wanted to become friends with Grid . He believed that both of them could help each other .
However, he was burdened by the attitude of the Overgeared members . Kraugel slowly opened his mouth as he watched the Overgeared members, who were saying be our friend with their eyes .
My mother suddenly called, so I should go . Log out .
Suruk .
…?
The peak of two billion users . The sky above the sky . The best . The absolute leader of the rankings, who monopolized all types of titles, Kraugel .
Was he an elementary school student, to use his mother as an excuse to log out? It was a rather childish appearance . Grid and the Overgeared members thought it was absurd .
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week .
Chapter 355
After a few minutes of silence .
Vantner stared at the spot where Kraugel logged out .
We should stay here until Kraugel logs in again .
Is that a good idea? Once he logs in, we will immediately kidnap him .
Okay! Well make him a slave of Overgeared!
Ohh! The 1st ranked user will join Overgeared!
The members of Overgeared made a plan . Grid frowned at them and said, Cut it out . Dont force it .
Jishuka was surprised .
“You want to miss out on the chance to get the best power?
Grid was the embodiment of greed . Considering Grids usual tendencies, he should be obsessed with obtaining Kraugel . She couldnt help feeling curious .
Does he personally not like Kraugel?
Grid spoke to the questioning Overgeared members .
“We cant get colleagues by force, right?
Of course, there were those who were baited by Overgeared . For example, Lauel . But Lauel and Kraugel were different . Lauel was a person who became fascinated with the power of items when he was looking for power, while Kraugel was a person who disliked belonging to a group .
If they forced him to join, would he really be born again as a true companion?
And I already have the best colleagues . All of you . So dont cling to Kraugel .
It wasnt a pretense at all . Grid believed that he could accomplish any goal with his current colleagues . He didnt feel great regret towards Kraugel . Grid had a separate role that he wanted for Kraugel .
Kraugel .
Go your own way . Be sure to become a sword saint . Then on the day they met again .
Make me grow stronger .
Grid had learned a lot in the spar with Kraugel . How to avoid non-targeted skills, how to deal with targeted skills, how to use mana and physical strength, how to use items and skills, how to use the terrain and so on . Every one of Kraugels judgments and movements were deeply engraved in his heart .
‘Of course, I cant be like Kraugel right away .
Grid believed it . If he keep trying and trying, one day he would be able to fight a better match against Kraugel .
Thats right . Grid was conscious of Kraugel as his rival . A stupid person having a rivalry with the best genius? Some people might laugh . But Grid didnt doubt his eligibility . It was because he had a high pride as the unique being who broke the sky above the sky . It was a pride unmatched by the arrogance that had been used to cover up his deficiency .
***
Jishuka returned to the castle with Grid and asked .
Why didnt you call us when Prince Rens army tried to invade Reidan? Do you know how absurd it was when I had to hear from the news that our territory was invaded by the enemy?
“You were working hard hunting the vampires, so I didnt want to disturb you . In the first place, it was possible to resolve it with Lauel alone .
“You should call us if there is an incident! What if you were in danger?
“…
In the past, Grid wouldve responded casually, saying If I was, I would summon a knight . But now Grid was different . He realized why Jishuka was angry and apologized .
Im sorry the actions that I chose made you dissatisfied . ”
It wasnt because he thought they were useless, or because he didnt think of them as colleagues . It was pure goodwill . Grid apologized with gentle eyes and Jishuka couldnt say anything more .
It is becoming harder to deal with him .
Jishuka couldnt help being conscious of Grid . Grid had a weak and stupid side, so sometimes he felt young . That wasnt the case anymore . Since becoming a father, Grid had been changing rapidly . He felt a strong sense of responsibility and his deficiencies were being erased one by one .
Jishuka liked this appearance even more .
He will be great by the time he reaches 30 years old .
She wanted to see the mature Grid . As Jishuka felt mesmerized, Lauel approached Grid . Then he randomly apologized .
Im sorry .
What is it all of a sudden?
Actually…
Lauel honestly confessed .
When I saw you on the battlefield a while ago, I thought you were still lacking . But this time, I realized that my eyes were wrong . You won against Kraugel, the sky above the sky . In the future, I wont doubt your skills again .
After the 1st National Competition, Lauel had been with Grid for more than 10 months in real time . So far, Lauel had never looked at Grid with envy or respect . But now it was different . The emotions in Lauels eyes deepened .
“I, Lauel, will stop following you just for your items . In the future, I will serve you will an honest and pure mind . This is the true oath of my soul that will penetrate the past and present .
Grid and the Overgeared members got goosebumps at Lauels words . Their hands and feet shrunk and they couldnt think of anything else . Huroi was the only one thrilled by Lauels oath .
***
Going back in time, to when Grid had just completed the Elfin Stone raid .
『 A non-NPC player was elected as the pope! In addition! A Japanese person! 』
Japan was overturned .
Damian . An exceptional person who rose to the 2nd ranked paladin, despite being a paladin of the Rebecca Church . One day, he suddenly disappeared from the rankings list, so there was a rumor that hed obtained a hidden class . And he was an otaku .
One of Japans best Satisfy players was elected as pope of the Rebecca Church . The Japanese were filled with joy . They werent able to win a medal at the 1st Satisfy National Competition, but Japan cheered at the birth of a savior .
『 Damian! Congratulations on being elected pope! The Japanese people are very proud! 』
『 Thank you . 』
『 How hard was it for you to become a pope? The whole nation wants to know . What how did you overcome the trials and adversities to achieve something so great? 』
The power of the pope of the Rebecca Church was absolute . Even the kings of a few kingdoms had to bow to the pope . This was why the Japanese had high hopes . Damian would develop a lot of policies favouring the Japanese users, making a great contribution to Satisfys development in Japan .
This changed once Damian started the interviews with various media outlets .
『 I only became the pope thanks to Grid . 』
『 The legendary blacksmith Grid? There was a big battle with Grid and the Red Knight on the day of the pope candidate speeches . Was this how he helped Damian? 』
『 It isnt just that . From beginning to end, I could only become pope thanks to Grids help . 』
Grids popularity was steadily rising .
In particular, since the release of the white-haired version of Grid, a large fandom had formed in Japan . It was enough to make him the protagonist of the 5th Korean love . But as always, the Korean wave was a story that applied only to a small number of people .
Most of the Japanese people didnt care about the Korean wave . In such a situation, the Japanese hero Damian praised Grid exclusively, causing resentment . Grid was one of the main people who frustrated Japan in the National Competition, causing a backlash among the extreme right-wing people .
Why is Damian attributing all his achievements towards Grid?
“Doesnt he know how much Japan suffered because of Grid?
“Grid is our nemesis! Not only did he destroy the Japanese rankers in the National Competition, he was also involved when the Sakura Guild attacked the Silver Knights Guild in the past!
What? Grid is completely the worst! Damian, why is he praising that bastard? Is he a Zainichi (A Japanese word referring to Koreans who live in Japan)?
Its possible! It makes no sense that a pure blood Japanese would be a traitor!
The Japanese felt public outrage .
Damian is a Zainichi appeared on various SNS . A rumor that he wanted to improve the image of Korea in Japan started to spread . It was the dirty masterpiece of the Japanese extreme right-wing forces .
But Damian didnt care . He had always been mocked for being an otaku, so such accusations were familiar to him .
『 Rumors are raging about whether Damian is Korean or not . What do you think about this? 』
『 I am a pure blood Japanese . 』
『 However, Damian tends to portray Korea in a good manner by mentioning Grid in all interviews . There are many people who are questioning your intentions . 』
『 I have never portrayed Korea in a good manner . I just thanked Grid, and it was misinterpreted by some people . 』
『 In any case, its true that Damians image isnt good for our country . In order to change your image and remove suspicions, why dont you build a Rebecca Temple in the territories ruled by the Japanese? 』
『 Strict conditions must be met in order to build a Rebecca Temple in certain areas . A temple cant be built just because we belong to the same country . 』
『 Then… Damian, do you have no intention of helping Japan after becoming pope? 』
『 Of course . What does being pope have to do with Japan? As a pope, I must always be neutral . 』
『 …I see . Then can I ask about your first official plan of action as pope? 』
『 It is to build a temple of Goddess Rebecca in Reidan . 』
『 No, didnt you say that strict conditions had to be met to build a temple? Reidans current population is only 20,000, so doesnt it fail to meet the conditions? You said you are neutral, but arent you blatantly favoring Grid? 』
Fuji TV . It was one of Japaneses leading right-wing media outlet, with the announcer representing the extreme right-wing people . He conducted an interview with a very negative view on Damians behavior .
If Damian was a common person, he wouldve been afraid of the influence and retaliation of the extreme right wing forces . But Damian was an otaku . An otakus firm belief wasnt easy to bend .
『 Im not showing favoritism to Grid, but repaying his grace . Grid is the person who saved me and the Rebecca Church! Goddess Rebecca has given me a divine message to repay his grace! Praise God Grid!! 』
『 … 』
Crazy bastard!
The Japanese extreme right wing forces were furious . The Japanese had gained great power, but that person wouldnt help his own people, or convince the Koreans to help him . They started thinking up a terrible plan .
