Overgeared Chapter 265:
Chapter 265
A golden ceiling and white exterior walls . Three big and ornate buildings like palaces were situated on the hills of Rolling . They were in harmony with the forest and landscape . There was a small waterfall behind each building . A golden statue of Rebecca rose in the center .
It was the center of the Rebecca Church, the most important religion on the continent . This was the Vatican .
“Isabel-chan!
Damian returned to the Vatican and sought out Isabel . It was to check her status .
“…
Isabel’s health hadnt improved . No, it was worse . She seemed to have completely lost her hearing and vision . There was no reaction when he called from right beside her .
Cough! Cough!
She coughed up blood . The crumbly platinum hair was pulled off with a single touch, and the skin was pulled tightly over her skull . Isabel sat on a shabby bed like a doll without a soul .
Damians eyes crumbled at the sight .
Dammit… Why is this room always cold…?
You came .
A priest with a faint presence approached . His emotionless eyes gave off an ominous feeling but unlike his appearance, he could be trusted .
It was Cassus . He had been taking care of Isabel when Damian wasnt present .
“The mission to destroy the Yatan Church found in the west of the empire… I thought you would finish it in 40 days and come back .
It was a week later than expected . Goddess’ Agent, Damian . Maybe his skills didnt meet everyones expectations?
Damian explained to the concerned Cassus . I accomplished my mission more than a month ago . I was delaying my stay in the Eternal Kingdom .
More than a month ago? He spent only a few days destroying one of the Yatan Churchs temples? Cassus felt thrilled .
“But why the Eternal Kingdom…?
“I met Grid .
Grid!
The only person able to seal Lifaels Spear . In the past, he saved the Rebecca Church by bringing down the corrupt Pope Drevigo .
“Hes coming here now . Just as he did in the past, he would save Isabel . She would regain her beautiful smile . “I will start competing with Pascal in that gap .
There was 42 days left until the pope election . Damian thought this was sufficient . Thanks to the class effect of Goddess’ Agent, many members of the church believed in and followed him .
I will base the campaign on them, defeat Pascal, and become the pope .
Pascal from the Judar church was the number one candidate . He was politically strong and experienced . He also had the honor of being 5th Pope Franzs direct descendant . His father was even an earl of the Saharan Empire .
But hes corrupt . He wanted to use the Rebecca Church to strengthen his familys power . If he becomes the pope, the Rebecca Church will walk a worse path than when Drevigo was in charge .
Many members of the church already knew this truth . Those members would choose Damian for the future of the church .
An innocent Damian believed so .
***
The elders assembly .
They were the agency that acted on behalf of the empty vacant pope position . It consisted of 23 of the highest ranking elders .
They summoned Damian and ordered . “Theres a report that the Yatan followers are active in the Gauss Kingdom . Goddess’ Agent, Damian . Immediately go to the Gauss Kingdom, then search and destroy the Yatan Temple .
There are 42 days left until the pope election . I am a pope candidate . You want me to leave during such an important period in the campaign?
Damian was 30 years old . He lived his life in his own way so he lacked social experience . He wasnt accustomed with such irrational practices .
The elders laughed at his naive self . “You cant do your duties because of the election? Youre confessing your own incompetence .
“This is a task you should do as a dutiful son… Tsk, how pathetic .
You shouldnt cause trouble with your work just because you are registered as a pope candidate . Why dont you just resign your candidacy?
“Or Isabel will do the work .
Being ignored, mocked, provoked and looking at him with contempt . It was obvious that the elders assembly were hostile towards Damian .
‘They are fully with Pascal . But this is still too much .
Damian was honestly shocked . He was afraid since they opposed him so plainly .
‘I was thinking too easily .
Damian was doing Isabels missions to save her . On the other hand, the elders assembly were trying to get rid of Isabel . They wanted Isabel to die so they could find a new master for Lifaels Spear .
In this situation…
He needed to neglect the campaign for Isabels mission? If Isabel performed this task, then she would die . He couldnt allow it .
Damian wanted to become a pope for Rebeccas Daughters . He couldnt throw Isabel away just because of the election .
…I understand . I will go to the Gauss Kingdom immediately .
He was desperate . This mission included searching for the temple . It was doubtful if he could find the Yatan Church before the pope election day .
‘In the first place, this temple might not even exist .
It was an obvious trap . But he had no choice . It was impossible to disobey the command if he wanted to protect Isabel .
Isabel needs to survive until Grid arrives and seals Lifaels Spear .
Four days . From Reidan to the Vatican, that was how long it took running nonstop . Grid had sent a whisper yesterday that he was leaving Reidan, so Isabel needed to survive three more days .
Please .
Step step .
Damian left the assembly room with powerless steps . He inwardly begged .
Please save Isabel-chan, Grid .
By the time he got back, Isabels health would be restored . He would be able to see her smile .
Creak .
The gigantic door of the room opened by itself . It seemed to be urging Damian to leave . The moment that Damian was about to walk out the door .
Dont go .
…!
A voice he wanted to hear was heard from outside the door . Damians gaze moved upwards from the floor .
“Isabel-chan…
She held Lifaels Spear in her hand and blocked the door . She was standing straight on her own . Her eyes were also clear .
This was the power of White Transformation . The transcendental divine power was restoring her broken body .
Of course, this was only temporary . Now that the spear was in her hand, Isabel would be in greater pain than before . No, she would die .
Why…? Why? Why are you here?
Three days . She couldve lived if she waited three days .
So why…?
As Damian felt frustration and despair, Isabel smiled .
Thank you again, Damian . She had dimly heard his cry . She knew that he struggled alone for them . “You must become the pope .
It must happen . If Pascal became the pope, there would be more miserable children like her .
Dont you know this? Damian, you cant miss the opportunity to become pope because of me .
“…
Damian was well aware of this . If he didnt want the second or third Isabel to be born, he must become the pope . Now was the time for Isabel to sacrifice herself .
But I dont want you to die .
Damian was confused .
Isabel stroked his head as he hesitated .
“I will go to the Gauss Kingdom . In the meantime, you should become the pope . Please succeed for Rin, Luna, and my successor . Be sure to protect those children .
She stroked his hair . It was a bony hand . But it was warm . Tears formed in Damians eyes as he felt Isabels hand .
Then a man laughed at him . “Someone who wants to become pope is shedding tears in front of others?
It was Pascal . He touched his thin mustache and ridiculed Damian .
You truly dont have the dignity of a pope . It will be a disgrace to the church if this crybaby becomes the pope . Isn’t that right, Elders?
Thats right .
Damian is a small bowl . ”
“The pope must be Pascal .
The 23 elders chimed in to support Pascal . They mocked Damian . Then Isabel glared at them .
“Daring to disparage the Goddess’ Agent, isnt this no different from blasphemy?
“Your attitude is bad . Isabel, the Yatan Church is your enemy, not us .
Pascal approached Isabel who was holding Lifaels Spear .
Know your subject . You have forgotten your position . You are Goddess Rebeccas daughter only because you can handle the divine artifact of our church . You are only a tool . A weapon of war to fight for the goddess and our church .
Pascals eyes were as cold as ice as he faced Isabel . It didnt seem like the eyes of a person .
“Just like this spear, you are a weapon of slaughter . Dont think and dont talk . Do you understand?
“Shut up!
Damian exclaimed . He wanted to beat up Pascal right away . But if he did that, he would be immediately kicked out of the church . It would ruin everything .
Damian clenched his fists as Pascal looked at him .
“Rebeccas Daughter, who you love so much, is being abused in front of you . But you are swallowing your anger? You are just a coward who can only shout .
Put away that cheap provocation .
…!
Damian, Isabel and Pascal . The eyes of everyone present widened .
“You are having a lot of fun after grabbing the weapon point . Is it fun to harass people?
180 cm tall with a solid body . Black hair and sharp eyes . The eyes and voice that were filled with confidence .
Pagmas Descendant, Grid . He was walking from the other end of the hall .
Multiple people are bullying one person? Huh?
W-Why are you here?
Pascal and the elders were disturbed by the emergence of an unexpected person . Isabel was stunned .
Grid!
Damian smiled widely . Grids appearance was exquisite timing and he patted Damians shoulders .
You endured well .
Grid arrived at the Vatican much faster than expected thanks to Hurois drake . He declared to the frowning Pascal and elders .
From now on, I am behind Damian .
“…Behind?
Pascal couldnt properly understand Grids words . Huroi translated it for him . “As of this time, I, Duke Grid of the Eternal Kingdom, am the guardian of Damian, the Goddess’ Agent .
Orator Hurois voice was filled with charisma . It pierced through the spacious building and made Pascal and the elders feel sick .
Grid declared, Dont bother him . Or you will be scolded by me .
“If you ridicule pope candidate Damian again, you will be punished accordingly .
Do you have any complaints? Then bring it on, you masses of experience . Im in a different position from Damian, so I can deal with you as I like .
“…
It was hard to wrap their heads around it . Even Huroi was speechless as silence filled the room .

Chapter 266
Its baffling .
Grid . He was a very special person for the Rebecca Church . The hero who saved their church by punishing the corrupt Pope Drevigo .
Most of the members praised Grids feat . A big wave was unavoidable if he claimed to be Damians guardian . Numerous members were likely to support Damian .
That Damian, he was preparing for his loss .
It was a deadly move . The elders never imagined that such a foolish guy would call someone big like Grid to help him .
Its a crisis .
The election wasnt the only method that Grid could help Damian . By sealing Lifaels Spear, it was possible to remove Damians weakness .
Ah, this is a quandary .
Unlike the elders, Pascals face was relaxed . He had experience with Grid, and could turn this crisis into an opportunity .
Grid isnt a hero .
The reason why Grid defeated Drevigo . It wasnt for the Rebecca Church, but for Grid himself . Pascal knew the truth .
He said he killed Drevigo because he needed to bless the odd mineral called pavranium .
Grid was selfish and violent . At the time that the pavranium received God Judars blessing, Pascal had peeked at Grids nature .
The more selfish a person is, the easier it is to handle them .
Why was Grid claiming to be Damians guardian? It was because there was something good in it for him .
Ssik .
Pascal smiled widely .
Grid, I can give more to you than Damian .
Wealth, power, and beauty . He would give Grid everything he wanted .
So leave Damian and come to me .
If he could get Grid on his side, he could unseal all three divine artifacts as well as win the election . It was a great opportunity to become pope with the strongest Rebeccas Daughters . Pascal had this thought and broke the uncomfortable silence . Hey hey! Who is this? The savior of the Rebecca Church! Hero among heroes! If it isnt Grid!
Pascal exclaimed while smiling as brightly as possible . He praised Grid with exaggerated words and shook hands with him .
“Im so glad to see you again .
Grid was confused .
This guy, he can smile instead of feeling angry after my blatant provocation?
It was an unexpected response .
He was like this in the past .
Grid had taken the Holy Light set that Pascal wanted . But rather than being hostile to Grid, Pascal welcomed him .
He thanked Grid for punishing Drevigo, held a banquet and gave God Judars blessing without any conditions . He was someone to watch out for . Pascal was someone reluctant to make strong enemies .
I have to provoke him some more .
Grid thought this and responded to the handshake .
Nice to see you as well .
Pascals spirit rose at Grids response .
Its like this . I dont know about the other elders, but he shouldnt be rude to me .
Grid should also be aware of it . The fact that Pascal would be more helpful than Damian . Pascal was filled with confidence and quickly led the situation .
Youre a duke of the Eternal Kingdom? Youre truly a hero . Your outstanding abilities have been recognized . Now, lets move the location . I will prepare a reunion celebration banquet, so lets talk to each other after a long time .
Damian paled as he watched the situation .
Grid and Pascal knew each other?
It was serious . Pascal was extremely rich . Grid could be tempted by money . As Damian was worrying, Pascal nailed in the final wedge .
“Sir Grid, I will prepare many gifts for you today .
Hoh, gifts . i am looking forward to it .
Grid started to show interest . Damian was frustrated, while Pascal showed a deep smile . It was at that moment .
“But Pascal, Im a duke, right?
Kwack!
Grid gripped the hand he was shaking with more strength . Pascals face rapidly twisted .
What is this…?
It was an incredible grip . Pascal started to feel pain in his hands . He struggled, but Grid didnt let go .
“You arent a pope yet . A pope candidate is asking for a handshake instead of politely greeting me? You seem to be making fun of me, Pascal . Was it a lie when you praised me as a hero?
‘Youre just the duke of a small kingdom!
Pascal was a noble of the Saharan Empire . He recognized all nations apart from the empire as small, and thought they were barbaric . He was a nationalist who believed that only the empire should be blessed by Goddess Rebecca . For Pascal, there was no humiliation worse than being treated like this by a noble of a small kingdom .
What is this violence? Heok?
Pascal yelled, then became filled with consternation the moment he met Grids eyes .
You…!
He was unable to read the emotions or measure the depth in Grids eyes . He didnt know the intentions, but Grid had such profound eyes . Grids eyes were showing a clear meaning . A provocation . Bring it on Pascal . I want to destroy you . Grids eyes were clearly saying that .
A beast!
The moment that Pascal was feeling agitated, someone fell from the ceiling . A knight wearing red armor . His name was Kamiyan . The 30th knight of the Red Knights, the emperor gave him to Pascal in the hope that Pascal would become the pope .
Let go .
Kamiyan warned with his sword at Grids neck . Grid snorted .
What if I dont want to?
I will cut off your hand .
Kamiyan showed no hesitation . His sword moved towards the hand that was holding Pascals .
Pascal shouted, “Stop!”
Kamiyans sword stopped just above Grids wrist . Grids eyes narrowed from where he had been able to summon Failure from the inventory .
Too bad .
Pascal barely managed to escape from Grids hand .
“Sir Grid, I will close my eyes to your rudeness today .
You dont have to? I told you already . If you have a complaint then come forward . Bring it on .
“…
Anger boiled inside Pascals heart .
He was the son of a Saharan noble, who had gained a high status after joining the Rebecca Church . This was the first time that he had been treated like this . Pascal couldnt be rational or prudent anymore . In his heart, he wanted to tell Kamiyan to immediately hit Grids neck . But he had to endure it . He needed Grids strength to release the seals on the three divine artifacts .
I hope that we can laugh with each other when we meet again soon . I will always have a gift for you .
Pascal withdrew with a red face . Kamiyan and the elders followed him . Grids face was filled with regret as he looked at them .
His endurance is great .
Grid couldnt attack senior NPC priests first . As long as they werent abandoned by the goddess like Drevigo, they were always protected by the goddess . If he attacked them first, the goddess would curse him .
[Goddess Curse]
The unlucky stat will be generated .
The unlucky stat was vague since it wasnt a status condition . Grid was reluctant to be cursed by the goddess . Thats why he tried to provoke Pascal, but eventually failed .
‘Well, dont be nervous and just wait .
From Pascals point of view, Grid was an eyesore . He would eventually attack Grid .
After Pascal and the elders left .
Isabel, who had remained silent the whole time, approached Grid .
It has been a long time .
It was a dissatisfied voice . It seemed like she had something to complain about .
I hate you .
Isabel was plagued with terrible pain because of Grid . This situation happened because Grid forgot to seal Lifaels Spear .
“I’m sorry . Grid sincerely apologized .
Isabel gritted her teeth at the sight of him . “Why are you sorry? Are you apologizing for unsealing Lifaels Spear? Dont make me laugh . I was able to save my friends thanks to you releasing the seal . Thanks to you, the entire church was saved . So dont apologize .
She was grateful .
Then why is she angry?
Tears filled Isabels eyes while Grid was puzzled .
“You always do this . Why do you only show up when Im in a desperate crisis? Like a prince on a white horse .
Isabel had a crush on Grid . Her emotions were stimulated because she was saved just before falling to **** . But Grid had already ignored her once . It would be the same this time as well .
You wont accept me anyway, so why are you acting like this…? Isabel whispered as she bowed her head . Her words didnt reach Grid . The problem was that her voice was too small .
Her condition is strange . Indeed, she must be in a lot of pain .
Grid watched Isabel . Her beautiful platinum hair was now close to grey and it wasnt even shiny . Her lustrous red lips were pale and her skinny body looked like a mummy . There was a bigger problem .
‘Her **** have decreased in size .
It was the effect of losing weight . Her original B cup **** were now an A cup . It was really a pity .
W-Where are you looking? Pervert! Isabel covered her chest with her arms and shouted .
“What is there to look at?
What is there to look at? What does that mean?
Do I need to explain?
Thats okay!
It had been a really long time since Isabel had been so energetic . Damian watched her and Grid and smiled .
Isabel-chan, you have always missed Grid .
He hoped her heart would be communicated to Grid . He truly was cheering her on . Damian wasnt a rival for Grid .
Its natural for the heroine to be connected with the hero .
He was just an extra . He was too incompetent, so he was satisfied just watching Rebeccas Daughters from the side . Huroi approached Damian and whispered . “Don’t worry . She doesnt fit My Lords taste .
“…
The beautiful Isabel-chan didnt suit Grids taste? It was upsetting . Damian was making a subtle expression when Grid urged him .
How long are we going to stand here? Guide me to a suitable place .
It was time to figure out how to create and seal Lifaels Spear .
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week .
Chapter 267
Beautiful and benevolent Goddess Rebecca, give your light to this weak and foolish servant who cant move without it . I will use your light to save the weak and punish the wicked .
The first prayer room . Pascal was praying in a place that originally only the pope could use . It was to shake off his anger about Grid and regain his senses .
…May the whole world be bathed in the warm light .
After a long time, his prayers finished . Pascal made a refreshed expression and got up from his seat . His anger was cleansed and he was now calm .
It isnt simply riches or power that the current Grid is coveting now .
If it was, Grid wouldnt have been able to shake off his temptation .
It seems like there is a special link between him and Damian . This was an unexpected variable . But eternal friendship doesnt exist . Even blood and flesh will kill each other in front of greed .
The only concept that didnt change in this world was faith .
Ssik .
Pascal commanded with a smile, “Open the warehouse . ”
Yes!
Pascals loyal followers that he brought from the Judar Church moved immediately .
Creak .
The secret warehouse door behind the statue opened and glittering gold poured out . There were treasures and gold piled up in the warehouse . Pascal used the secret warehouse that Drevigo had made during his days as the pope .
‘Grid, how much will make you satisfied?
Pascals men started to gather up the gold coins . These gold coins would be used to obtain Grid .
I will offer more if its still lacking . If that is not enough, I will give even more . In the end, you will be caught by my hands .
Kamiyan watched Pascal and asked . That person called Grid, isnt it better to just kill him?
“He is the only one who can unseal the three divine artifacts of our church . He cant die .
“What if you cant obtain him?
Haha, that wont happen . Hes very greedy . He will surely accept my heart .
“…
Pascal was confident, but Kamiyan was unsure .
‘Hes a wild beast . He can never be tamed .
Kamiyan had noticed it when he aimed his sword at Grids wrist . Grid didnt blink once . He was prepared to give his hand to strike Kamiyans neck . Honestly, it gave Kamiyan goose bumps .
It isnt a skill that develops after fighting once or twice . His momentum was overwhelming . Perhaps I wouldve had to fight properly . His power might be praised by the church, but it will be painful in many ways if he becomes an enemy .
The emperor had commanded Kamiyan . Pascal must become pope . Kamiyan faithfully carried out the emperors commands, so he couldnt neglect any dangers .
Come out .
Kamiyan moved to avoid Pascals eyes and summoned an assassin from the emperor . An assassin of the emperor, the assassin called Crow . There was a flashing light in the darkness and the shadow asked Kamiyan .
“You saw that guy called Grid, right? Can you assassinate him?
Is that a question that needs to be asked? I can even kill a mouse .
It wasnt a lie . Crow had the ability to assassinate enemy knights . One day, the strongest assassins Doran and Kasim disappeared, so Crow was now the strongest assassin in existence .
Good answer . Kill Grid as soon as possible .
Look forward to tomorrow morning . He will be hung on Goddess Rebeccas statue .
Crow immediately disappeared .
***
Grid frowned as he was guided into Isabels room .
What is this?
It was a small room where the only furniture was a shabby bed . A chill that would make the bones ache dominated the inside of the room .
There isnt even a fireplace? It will be freezing in the middle of winter .
He touched the grey wall and stone powder fell down .
Hey, you will catch pneumonia .
Grid shook off the dust and turned to Isabel .
Its still like this?
“…
Rebeccas Daughters had also suffered under Drevigo . Despite being the strong force, they didnt rebel against the leaders of the church and endured this unfair treatment .
It was frustrating when he thought about it, but what could he do? The church raised Rebeccas Daughters as a weapon and they were taught only obedience . This deep brainwashing was like a shackle .
It was the churchs fault, not theirs . On the surface, the church expressed peace and charity, but there was no charity . From what Grid could see, the Rebecca Church was no different from the Yatan Church .
Bad people .
Grids expression distorted as he thought about how Pascal and the elders treated Damian and Isabel .
The words that the assassin Shay had spoken popped up .
The Yatan Church is the one that stands for pure evil . They believe that evil is the right way . But the people from the Rebecca Church commit atrocities, even though they realize they have to do good deeds . The front and back are different, so they are far sneakier and more dangerous than the Yatan Church .
This wasnt the case with the Rebecca Church in the past . But Drevigo ruined everything .
He caused the rot .
The current leaders of the Rebecca Church were those affected by Drevigo . Most of them had already tasted the sweet fruit he offered them and realized they felt joy in harassing others .
Could they let go of this pleasure?
No . The evidence was that they were following Pascal without trying to overcome his temptations . Pruning was required .
Damian should be pope .
He might be an otaku, but Damian was a pure person . The Rebecca Church would change if he became the pope .
First of all, Pascal cant become pope .
Pascal was from the empire . He was the son of the powerful Earl Chirita of the empire . If Pascal became the pope, the empire would be able to utilize the Rebecca Church freely . Lauel was convinced that the empire would become much stronger than it was now . Grid agreed .
Someday I will become hostile to the empire when I become king, so they shouldnt become stronger than they are now .
Grid silently thought for a moment before opening his mouth .
“Damian, you should start your campaign right now . Make sure you thoroughly advertise that I am your guardian . Huroi will help you .
Yes!
The first ranked orator, Huroi . His words had the power to capture peoples ears and hearts . He would surely be a great strength to Damian .
“In the meantime, I will seal Lifaels Spear .
Grid sat on Isabels bed . Then he observed Lifaels Spear in her hand .

It is one of the three divine artifacts of the Rebecca Church .
It contains a tremendous divine power that human beings cant afford to handle, placing a heavy burden on the users mind and body .
Since Rebeccas Daughters became short-lived after being unable to cope with the power of this weapon, 5th Pope Franz asked Pagma to seal its power .
However, Pagmas Descendant appeared in the days of 13th Pope Drevigo and released the seal on the weapon .
Conditions of Use: Rebecca’s Daughter .
Weight: 400
[You have already uncovered the hidden feature of the item . ]
‘In order to reseal this…
He needed to understand the structure of the item . Then he could figure out how to make it . In order to do so, the process of disassembly and assembly, as well as observation, were essential .
After becoming Pagmas Descendant, Grid had often disassembled and assembled items . He was confident that he could quickly grasp the structure of Lifaels Spear . Thats why he thought this task would be easy .
But the reality is different .
Things became difficult . Isabel was the problem . Her health was far more serious than expected . If she let go of Lifaels Spear, she would die immediately . It meant that he couldnt disassemble Lifaels Spear .
I have to do it with observation .
He couldnt guarantee how long it would take . But one thing was clear .
“Isabel, I will be sure to save you .
Isabel was a precious person . She was a person he shared memories with and was loved by somebody . Damian thought of her the same way Grid thought of Irene .
I wont allow you to die .
Grid started to observe Lifaels Spear . He carefully looked at the features several times . Was it possible to raise the understanding of an item to 100% just by looking at it? It was impossible at this time . It was out of reach with Grids current abilities . But Grid believed in his imperfection .
I have abilities that havent blossomed yet .
Originally, if he completed the class quests, then he would gain abilities . These abilities were drawn out of him .
I can do it .
Grids class quest couldnt proceed at the moment . It had already been more than a year since he received it .
The developers arent brainless or manipulative .
It was clear that they wouldve prepared some way to awaken his power in the case of an incomplete class quest .
The answer was likely to be hidden in Lifaels Spear . What was the reason for Grid unsealing Lifaels Spear? The system . In the past, the system arrow led Grid to unseal Lifaels Spear . That lead to this present situation . It was a clear arrangement .
An arrangement that will allow my skills to blossom .
Grids eyes sharpened as he observed Lifaels Spear . His concentration started to rise to the extreme . The willpower and spirit he trained over many experiences was in effect .
Grid…
Isabels mind calmed as she sat opposite Grid . Somehow, she seemed to hear the voice of Goddess Rebecca .
Believe in him .
***
A serene dawn .
Crow appeared in the shadows of the window and looked at Grid .
Its already been 8 hours .
Grid was sitting in a small room . He had been examining Lifaels Spear for 8 hours already . His mind was solely focused on Lifaels Spear . It meant he was full of holes .
Rebeccas Daughter has fallen asleep . This will be an easier assassination than I expected .
Crow landed underneath a tree . Then he entered the building that contained Grid . He didnt make the slightest noise during all of this .
“…
Crow moved stealthily down the hall . Even the sensitive rats didnt detect his presence . But something was looking at him from the shadows .
