Overgeared Chapter 313:
Chapter 313
'Grid will accept the deal.'
The value of elixirs were so high that Chris was convinced. Satisfy had all types of medicines, but the effect of the elixirs were unique among them.
'It can increase the stat by up to 10 points…'
Taking one was like gaining one level. How many people in the world could resist this? He could confidently declare that there were none.
"Okay, I will make you a weapon."
Grid naturally accepted the deal.
“Please make me the best weapon. Like the blue greatsword that you are using.” Chris earnestly asked again. He would cancel the deal if it wasn't similar to Failure.
“Believe in me."
Grid pledged.
He wanted to obtain the elixir, and he also felt honored.
'Please make me the best weapon.'
It was the first time he received an item commission from a non-guild member. He felt proud as the master of Overgeared and a legendary blacksmith. He had no intention of poorly carrying out the request.
'I will add this to the Grid set.'
After Grid's Boots, it was time to make a greatsword. Failure, Dainsleif, the Doppelganger's Greatsword, Lifael's Spear, Iyarugt and so on. Grid's Greatsword would be created based on the best weapons that he had used in the past.
'I'll add a special option.'
Grid's wily smile grew thicker.
***
“I can't see the Tzedakah Guild members anywhere."
“Are they hiding because they heard we were here?"
Five people were gathered in the garden of Reidan's castle. They were the five captains of the Giant Guild. They came with Grid to Reidan and were greatly disappointed. The Tzedakah Guild had been their enemies since the days of L.T.S. Now they couldn't be seen anywhere.
"I wanted to see Regas after such a long time."
In particular, the 1st ranked magic swordsman, Mihara, was disappointed. He fought a total of 14 times with Regas, and the result was three draws and 11 losses. Today, he intended to add a win to this humiliating number, but couldn't find Regas anywhere.
"We didn't come here to fight. Please suppress your emotions and don't make trouble."
It was the 1st ranked swordsman, Zirkan. He had lost his ranking to Ibellin for a while, but now he consolidated his first rank. Ibellin was promising as one of the 10 Rookies, but he didn't have enough experience to go beyond Zirkan yet.
"Sorry, sorry. I'll restrain myself. I was just saying."
Mihara had a tendency to be wild and self-indulgent, but he always complied with Zirkan's orders. The other captains were the same. Zirkan was Chris' teacher, so it was hard to resist him.
"By the way, this castle… There's nothing to see."
The only woman, Pinky, changed topics. She thought that Reidan's castle was ugly. It was large, but there were no gorgeous landscaping or decorations. It wasn't just that.
"The population is small."
Reidan was a big city, but there were no people on the streets. The difficulty of the desert was too high and accessibility was low.
"The speed of Reidan's development is much slower than our predictions."
“In the first place, there aren't even 30 members in Overgeared. They don't have the ability to properly manage this big city."
“Isn't the farming doing well?"
“It is a testament to their incompetence that such a big city was developed into an agricultural city."
The Overgeared members were only good for fighting. The overall ability of the guild was low. The five captains of the Giant Guild thought so. They didn't know that Overgeared had secretly absorbed the Silver Knights Guild. In addition, there was a yellow mithril mine somewhere in the vast desert.
Bairan was a small city in the north of the Eternal Kingdom. Cork Island, which had a wealth of resources. What if the five captains found out that the current Overgeared members were divided between these three places?
They would be shocked by the power of Overgeared.
"Ah, I'm bored. I will be going for a walk, so please let me know when Master comes out."
“Don't cause any incidents."
“Okay, I understand. Who do you think I am?"
He laughed heartily at the Overgeared members. In order to soothe his boredom, Mihara left the group and wandered around.
“Wow, there really is nothing to see. How is this a duchy?”
Mihara was in the worst mood after finding out that Regas wasn't here. He was someone who always pursued stimulation, so he didn't welcome an ordinary situation.
"Huh?"
The grumbling Mihara suddenly stopped walking. His gaze was fixed on the old fountain. A pretty NPC maid caught his eye.
"This is perfect for wasting time."
Mihara approached the maid.
“Hey, let me touch your body."
Unless they were NPCs that gave quests, users didn't usually show any respect towards general NPCs. In particular, NPCs with a low status weren't treated as people. Since humans always hurt each other, it was impossible to protect the rights of NPCs. This was one of the biggest problems with Satisfy, which guaranteed a high degree of freedom.
“Kyaaak!"
The maid, pouring water on the flowers, was disgusted at the man who suddenly appeared and grabbed her ass. Mihara found her reaction funny.
“What are you screaming about? Isn't it just a small touch?"
At that moment.
“Who are you?”
A deep voice was heard in Mihara's ear. Mihara moved his gaze. A middle-aged man could be seen. He held a hand plow and looked like a farmer. His name was Piaro. He was also an NPC like the maid.
“This is an agricultural city, so there are farmers everywhere."
Mihara angrily waved his hand.
"Get lost."
“I asked who you were."
Rather than stepping back, Piaro asked again. Mihara no longer paid attention to him. He chose to keep touching the maid's body rather than care about a farmer NPC. Mihara couldn't imagine the disaster that this act would bring.
“All of Reidan belongs to Duke Grid. Even the emperor of the Saharan Empire can't covet anything here."
Piaro's voice lowered even more. Mihara frowned.
"This **** is talking nonsense. I am busy touching this maid's… Heok?"
A hand plow flew towards Mihara. Mihara's level and and agility were lower, so he barely detected it. Mihara used Haste to evade the hand plow and seethed.
“How dare a farmer threaten me?"
Hwaruruk!
Mihara pulled out a flaming sword. At this point, his judgment was blurred by the threat from the farmer. He tried to kill Piaro. But it was nothing from the viewpoint of Piaro.
"This is Reidan."
Teong!
"What…!?"
Mihara was astonished. It was because the farmer threw a small seed at him.
“You trash."
Teong!
"Keook!"
Mihara was struck on the forehead with a seed.
[You have suffered 9,150 damage.]
'This doesn't make sense…!'
“This is a place where a person like you isn't allowed."
Teong!
"Kuaack!"
Mihara shrieked. A seed flew again and struck his heart, causing him terrible suffering.
‘W-Will I be killed by a seed?'
Mihara checked his health gauge and thought this was a nightmare. The farmer threw seeds at the 1st ranked magic swordsman. It was a small seed like a sunflower seed, but he couldn't be killed by this. But reality was relentless.
[You have died.]
Mihara was hit in the forehead by a fourth seed and saw a grey world.
'I won't touch an NPC's **** again…!'
The NPC protection system had been strengthened so far! Mihara was logged out.
***
[Legendary Blacksmith's Creation Skill]
You can create three equipment item production methods every time the skill level of the 'Legendary Blacksmith's Craftsmanship Skill' goes up.
Number of items that can be created at present: 12/18.
* When items are produced using this skill, the name of the creator is automatically placed on the item.
A long time after Grid's Boots, Grid started to design an item. Prior to creating Grid's Greatsword, he sketched a plan in his head. It was tremendous prudence compared to the days when he created items without any thought.
'The worst thing about Failure is the excessive size.'
A greatsword was cool when bigger. It was the reason why Grid designed Failure to be 3m long, but he experienced discomfort after using it. It took too long to recover the sword, and it was greatly constrained by the terrain. In particular, it often hit the floor.
'A length of 1m and 40cm is the most suitable.'
It would be better to increase the width by 4cm. One of the advantages of a greatsword was that it was suitable to use for defense.
'Let's increase the feeling of weight.'
The biggest advantage of Failure was that it was made of blue orichalcum and was lightweight. The attack speed wasn't decreased despite being a big sword, but its destructive power wasn't maximized because it had no weight behind it.
'Then the materials will be a mix of blue orichalcum and black iron.'
The cutting power of the blade would be maximized by increasing the blue orichlacum content, while the weight of the blade would be increased due to the black iron.
“…"
Grid had already closed his eyes for two areas as he drew out the shape of a new item. The young blacksmiths in the smithy couldn't understand his behavior as Grid mediated to one side.
"Why is he only doing that after coming to work?"
"Is he taking a nap?"
“What reason would he have for taking a nap? That is meditation. The duke is trying to figure out the type of weapon he will create before he begins."
'Hoh.'
Among the blacksmiths sharing their opinions, there was those with exceptional eyes. They were the two young men who became intermediate blacksmiths first. Khan's evaluation of them increased.
'They are the children who will be a great force for Grid after me.’
Currently, Khan was giving a break to all the blacksmiths. He wanted to give them a chance to see Grid work. The young blacksmiths asked questions as they looked at Grid's actions, allowing them to grow step by step.
“Now, let’s get started.”
After the meditation, Grid used the Item Creation skill and designed Grid's Greatsword. Then he finally pulled out his hammer.
Ttang! Ttang!
The young blacksmiths of Reidan watched every move that the legendary blacksmith made.
***
It was three days after Grid received the commission.
–It is completed.
Chris was hunting monsters in the desert when he finally received Grid's whisper. He joyfully headed straight towards Reidan.
"Ohh…!"
Chris was amazed as he received the details of the item created. The performance of the item was more than he expected. But his face stiffened after he checked the options.
* This item can only be repaired by the maker.
'This guy…!'
Wasn't he very sly, unlike the rumors of his stupidity? Chris didn't know that Grid had grown steadily.
"Is it a deal?"
Grid laughed as he asked. Chris was very displeased. But the performance of the item was so desirable that he inevitably nodded.
"I will… trade…"
It was the moment the 3rd ranked user and head of the Giant Guild fell slave to the power of items. Now he became someone who couldn't live without Grid.
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week.
Chapter 314
So far, Grid only considered the performance when it came to item creation and production.
This was understandable. Items were things that existed for the convenience of the user and to increase their stats. The most important factor for an item was the performance, and Grid always considered this.
However, the circumstances were different this time. He had to make an item for someone who wasn't a colleague, but a potential enemy.
'It will be sickening if a future enemy is armed with the most powerful item I have created.'
He couldn't refuse the deal. If so, he needed to set up a device so that Chris wouldn't become an enemy. How? The conclusion he came to after a long period of thinking.
'I need to make the buyer of the item dependent on the creator.'
But how? Grid came up with a simple yet dramatic solution.
'This item can only be repaired by the maker.'
The absolute maker of the item! Grid's Greatsword would establish a relationship between the maker and buyer, and it would be effective as a type of slave contract.
'I need to make a complicated structure so that only the maker can repair it.'
Designing it wasn't a problem.
'I am a legendary blacksmith.'
Great Magician Braham had said it. A legend was a transcendental presence. Don't make a wall himself.
"I will design an item that no one can imitate."
Grid encouraged morale by copying Braham's tone. He grabbed the thought, used Item Creation and designed Grid's Greatsword. It was a practical design that excluded beauty. He considered the balance between performance and usage conditions.
The strengths were combined. It contained a distinctiveness. It was faithful to the basics while bringing out the best performance.
Ttiring~
His design was finished after struggling for half a day.
['Grid's Greatsword' has been added to the list of item production methods!]
Grid was satisfied.
Grid's Greatsword

It is a weapon designed by the legendary blacksmith Grid.
In a blind spot in the center of the blade, the content of black iron is increased to maximize the weight, and the cutting power is increased by adding blue orichalcum to both sides of the blade.
It is designed for the user's convenience and is perfectly balanced, helping the user achieve the best swordsmanship.
User Restriction: Level 300 or higher. More than 2,800 strength. Advanced Sword Mastery level 5 or higher.
* This item can only be repaired by the maker.
Weight: 1,540
"Good!"
Grid's Greatsword wasn't better than Failure. The attack speed, maximum attack power and durability of Failure were all better than Grid's Greatsword. In addition, the level limit of 300 was identical.
But Grid appreciated Grid's Greatsword more than Failure. There were many reasons.
First of all, the design of Grid's Greatsword was more efficient than Failure. Unlike Failure, which was inconvenient to use due to its excessive size, Grid's Greatsword had a very appropriate size.
In addition, the minimum attack power of Grid's Greatsword was far superior. When attacking a target, the minimum attack power was always guaranteed, unlike the maximum attack power. A weapon with a higher minimum damage was bound to have higher damage. There were also the options that increased slashing damage and skill damage.
There was only one part where Grid's Greatsword was worse than Failure. It had 3 Joint Attacks instead of 5 Joint Attacks. Grid had done his best to pass on the merits of Failure onto Grid's Greatsword, but it wasn't a complete success.
But Grid thought about it positively.
'This is fine. The terms of use might become ridiculously higher if it was 5 Joint Attacks.'
There was also a secret hidden in Grid's Greatsword. There was a deep groove across the center of the blade. It had a tremendous effect when used, but only Grid, who designed it, knew about it.
“Then let’s get started."
Grid smiled with satisfaction and stood in front of the furnace. Then he confirmed the number of minerals he currently had in stock.
29 blue orichalcum.
99 black iron.
1,290 iron ores.
32 mithril.
Blue orichalcum was a mineral dropped only by the Guardian of the Forest. There was a limit on the quantity that could be obtained, so it was virtually impossible for a person to have this much.
But Grid had Jishuka. While acting as ruler of Bairan, she steadily raided the Guardian of the Forest, gathered the blue orichalcum, and gave them all to Grid. The value of her help couldn't be converted to money, and Grid really appreciated her at this moment.
'Thank you, Jishuka.'
Grid felt thankful once again and started to melt the minerals in the furnace. His perfect understanding of the minerals and control of the temperature was engraved into the young blacksmiths.
***
'Finally…'
Over the past two days, Grid dedicated himself to making the item. As a result, two greatswords were in front of him. They were black swords with a deep groove in the center, while the blades gave off a subtle blue light. The harmony of colors was luxurious and seemed to improve the quality itself.
However, both were incomplete, as the handle wasn't attached yet.
"Sigh."
The handle was a length that could be grasped with both hands. Grid took a deep breath before combining it with the greatswords. The young blacksmiths felt doubts.
'Why is he upset before combining the handles?'
'Is something wrong?'
The young blacksmiths thought Grid had a deep meaning behind delaying the completion of the sword. But it was a misunderstanding. The present Grid was engulfed with fear.
'What if both are completed with a unique rating…?'
Grid used 19 blue orichalcum and 44 black iron just to produce one greatsword. Black iron was a relatively common mineral that could be obtained with money, but the blue orichalcum was different. It was a rare mineral that could only be obtained once every three months.
What if he used 19 of them just for a unique rated greatsword to be produced? It was obvious why he was trembling with nervousness. There was also the 'special event' that would happen in exchange for making the 10th legendary item. Even if he received a penalty, Grid wanted this to be a legendary greatsword. He couldn't always avoid legendary items.
'Please…!'
Grid strongly grasped the hammer.
'God, Buddha, Goddess Rebecca, God Yatan! Please give me good luck!'
Grid even prayed to God Yatan! As everyone watched, he attached a handle to the two-handed greatsword. The result was amazing.
[You have succeeded in making Grid's Greatsword (Legendary)!]
[A legendary rated item was produced, so all stats have permanently risen by +10 and reputation throughout the continent has risen by +500.]
[You have succeeded in making Grid's Greatsword (Legendary)!]
[A legendary rated item was produced, so all stats have permanently risen by +10 and reputation throughout the continent has risen by +500.]
"Ohh…! Ohh!!"
The blacksmiths were unable to close their mouths as they watched the completion of the greatsword. Khan was teary-eyed. He was pleased because Grid gave birth to a wonderful result. On the other hand, Grid was distracted.
[You have proven your potential by making 10 legendary items.]
[Now you are growing into a blacksmith comparable to Pagma.]
[The penalty that occurs when an item's usage conditions isn't met has disappeared.]
“Penalty removal!"
Grid's eyes widened. The greatest disadvantage grabbing onto his ankles since he became Pagma's Descendant was now gone. Grid trembled with excitement. But that joy was brief.
[Your growth has deteriorated due to the blossoming of your potential.]
[You won't acquire any additional stats in the future when making items with a unique rating.]
"This **** thing!"
He had already expected to experience a penalty to some extent. But once the moment came, he couldn't help feeling bad.
'If I want to increase my stats in the future, I have to produce legendary items…!'
The rate of producing legendary items was the worst. He had been Pagma’s Descendant for over a year and he had only been able to produce 11. Grid felt desperate and frustrated. In the past, he would've cursed at the game operators for a few days. But now it was different.
Grid quickly overcame the frustration due to the growth in his mentality.
'…Not bad.'
The deterioration of his stats increase was bad, but the item penalty had also disappeared. What did this suggest?
‘In the future, I will truly be dependent on the power of items.'
It was the rise of the overgeared legend, which didn't require potions or skills.
***
"I will… trade…"
The legendary rated Grid's Greatsword. Chris verified the details of it and finally accepted the deal. A slave contract. In the future, Chris would have to leave the repairing to Grid, so he could never become Grid's enemy. If he did something wrong against Grid, his item wouldn't be repaired.
“Okay, let's work well together in the future."
Grid held out a hand to shake.
“…"
Chris looked at his smile and once again wondered if his choice was right. However, he desired Grid's Greatsword too much. It was the best item Chris had seen while reaching level 314.
"P… Please…"
Chris shook his hand without any strength. The look in Grid's eyes was relaxed as he looked at Grid. The present Grid was closer to being reborn with the attitude of a legendary, like Braham mentioned.
OG:
Current schedule: 20 chapters a week.
Chapter 315
[Your agility has increased by 10.]
After completing the deal with Chris. Grid took the elixir without any delay, and his body felt lighter.
Strength: 2,790
Agility: 1,756
'There's still a long way to go.'
He needed to gain at least 104 levels in order to make the ratio of strength and agility 1:1. Grid thought it was frankly out of the question. Amoract's agent, Tallos. Despite the fact that he gained a huge 2.6 billion experience, he only gained one level. So how long would it take to gain 104 levels?
'Every time my level increases, the amount of experience required increases too much. This is why a fourth advancement class hasn't emerged even after one year.'
No, would it be possible for Kraugel to get a fourth advancement class in one year? His level was 319, which was four levels higher than the second place.
'A monster… That guy must be only hunting.'
The 1st ranked Kraugel. Grid had never met him and never saw him on TV. However, Grid acknowledged that his level up ability was unique.
'Anyway, it would be nice if I could frequently take the agility elixir.'
It was an unrealistic wish. Elixirs were a rare potion. This type of transaction might not happen again.
"Hrmm."
Grid looked at the location of his guild members. The Pavranium Expedition was still hunting in the remaining vampires cities. After raiding Elfin Stone, they got experience and item acquisition buffs.
'Wow… Pon and Regas are already level 308. Aren't they accumulating a lot of experience? I should go back to the vampire cities.'
[Experience and item acquisition rate has increased by 5%. This effect only applies to the vampire cities. The time remaining is 25 days, 13 hours, 40 minutes and 15 seconds.]
'The next 25 and a half days. If I hunt while the buff is maintained…'
Couldn't he gain at least three levels and an elixir if he was lucky? The inspired Grid headed to the smithy before leaving. He had some work to do.
First of all.
“Item Creation."
[What item do you want to create?]
"Armor."
[What materials would you like to use?]
"Blue orichalcum and black iron."
[Please design the item.]
A blank blueprint appeared in front of him. It was already the seventh design, so Grid was able to seamlessly design an armor. After a while, Grid completed the armor with a satisfactory appearance and explained the features of the item.
“This armor can never be pierced. It won't get any scratches from a sword, and even a dragon's breath won't melt it.”
[That isn't possible. There are limits on the level of material and design used.]
“…Indeed."
It was as expected. The item penalty had disappeared, but his dream of arming himself with a weapon with 999,999,999 attack power and armor with 999,999,999 defense was just a fanciful dream.
In the first place, (Understanding of Gods' Weapons) Legendary Blacksmith's Craftsmanship Skill was only level 6. The standards of an item that could be made with blue orichlacum and black iron was only slightly better than Failure. In the past, Failure was created without taking into account the conditions of use.
'This will change if I use pavranium as a mineral, but…'
It needed to be on the level of Lifael's Spear. Grid's lacking design level was a big obstacle.
'Right now, it is better to use pavranium was a secondary item than an equipment item. It is urgent to obtain minerals better than blue orichalcum.'
Grid realized this and summoned Minor, the minerals detector.
“Find and report on any minerals that are superior to blue orichalcum."
"Huh? What is this?”
Minor frowned at the words.
“Didn't you promise to let me live as a miner if you collected all the pavranium!?"
Minor's innate talents were more suited to minerals detection than mining. Minor's grand ambition was to become a legendary miner that surpassed Gis and become the right arm of the emperor. But Minor trembled because Grid didn't give him a chance to become a miner.
Grid patted the boy's shoulder.
"Endure it a little longer. Don't you know that I am a legendary blacksmith? I sincerely hope that you will become a great miner and give strength to me. But not yet."
“Kuoh…!"
Minor gritted his teeth. There was poison in his eyes. This was truly the attitude of someone who would betray his master. Grid inwardly tsked.
'He needs to know reality.'
Minor's talent was clearly outstanding. He had the qualities to be a huge miner. But it wasn't enough to become a legendary miner. That's what the Great Lord’s Sword was telling him. In other words, Minor's dream was useless.
'You are more suitable as a minerals detector.'
The ability of minerals detection was rare. Grid occasionally observed the people of Winston Bairan and Reidan, but Minor was the only NPC with a minerals detection talent. Grid hoped that Minor would grow as a minerals detector and would become a great force for him.
“Hasn't your mother's health worsened in Bairan? I will talk to the lord of Bairan to give your mother the best treatment. Now Minor. If you want your mother to regain her health, go on an adventure. Find the best minerals. Fighting!"
"Shit…! Shit! This evil person!"
Minor was only 14 years old. Grid struck at the boy's weakness, so he seemed evil. However, Grid was convinced that this was the right way to deal with Minor. He believed that a life as a minerals detector would work out better for Minor than just being an excellent miner.
Minor trembled and left. Then Grid sent a whisper to Euphemina.
–How many of the Water Clan King's Tears did you obtain?
–Four.
-Oh, that is a lot more than I thought?
Water Clan King's Tears. It was a rare material that permanently gave magic to an item. It was a production material with a unique effect, but the Water Clan's King only shed tears for one day every five months. Grid was surprised because Euphemina collected four tears in the three months after leaving for the Siren Kingdom.
–I was lucky. I got a special quest.
-Special quest? What is it?
–Hehe, I'll tell you later.
'She's excited.'
She must've gotten a fairly good quest.
Grid nodded with a smile.
–Yes, I'm looking forward to the good news. If you have any difficulties along the way, please feel free to contact me. First of all, place the tears in the guild's warehouse.
After a while.
Grid picked up the Water Clan King's tears from the warehouse and started to smelt the pavranium.
***
‘A legendary item maker… This really exists!'
Chris's smile stretched from ear to ear after he made the deal with Grid. He might be in an unfavorable position to Grid, but what were the chances to get such a good item? It was safe to say that it wasn't common.
Grid's Greatsword transcended common sense, and it was more than what Chris wanted. Chris was convinced that the performance was more than Kraugel's White Fang and Seuron's Brutal Heavy Sword.
'I can use it until at least level 360.'
It wasn't an exaggeration.
Grid's Greatsword was much better than the level 320 unique rated item that Chris acquired from a raid. Based on his analysis, he judged that level 350~360 items wouldn't be as good as Grid's Greatsword.
'I don't have to worry about weapons for at least 10 months. But the situation is serious…'
Didn't it mean that Grid and the Overgeared members were armed with such items? Grid seemed remarkably strong compared to other forces.
'Can they be left unchecked?'
Chris was the master of the Giant Guild. He wanted a higher position and to become a king, so that he could obtain the best wealth and power. From this standpoint, Grid was likely to be a big obstacle.
"Let's go."
Chris spoke to the Five Captains. (TL: Author uses the Five Captains as a title here, rather than using it to signify the number of people. So he will keep referring to them as the Five Captains, despite one being missing.)
Chris walked towards the gate with them when he suddenly felt doubts.
"Mihara?"
"I haven't seen him since three days ago, when he said he was going to Pedro first."
Mihara had been acting freely in Reidan. His capricious personality meant it wasn't strange for him to return first.
"That guy. Huh?"
Chris suddenly stopped walking. The fields stretched out widely outside Reidan.
There was a farmer blocking their way?
"Who are you?"
One of the Five Captains, Asellas questioned the farmer who was blocking their path. Then the farmer held out five hoes.
“Clear the ground."
"What?"
Was this farmer crazy? He appeared and told them to clear the ground? Everyone was speechless because it was so absurd, then Chris spoke.
“Why should we help you?"
The farmer, Piaro's, logic was simple.
"Your companion dared touch a maid of Duke Grid's. You failed to properly control your companion, so now you will help develop Reidan's agriculture."
Their companion molested a maid? Chris and the Five Captains were feeling disbelief when they remembered Mihara.
‘That stupid brat is doing something trashy again…!'
Mihara always caused incidents in the past. Chris sighed and nodded.
“I understand what you want to say. I will punish the one who touched the maid. Don't be too angry and open the path."
Chris thought the farmer called Piaro was doing some type of performance. He thought it was the cry of a weak farmer who knew about Mihara's sin. But it was a misconception.
“I have already punished him, so now you have to work in the fields."
In the end, Asellas raised his voice.
“Why do you keep talking nonsense? This is a viscount of the Eternal Kingdom and master of the Giant Guild, Chris! You shouldn't even look him in the eyes, so how can you skip etiquette and even ask him to work in the fields?"
It had been a long time since they started Satisfy, and they hadn't interacted with farmers for a while. Piaro looked indifferently at Asellas, who was seething with anger.
"I watched from afar, and you didn't show any politeness towards Duke Grid. I'm just following your rude behavior."
"Rude behavior…!"
Unlike NPCs, etiquette didn't play a huge role between users. Chris and the Five Captains had to bow and be polite to Duke Grid? It was impossible. The five people thought that the farmer wasn't aware of reality.
"Get lost!"
Their ankles couldn't be grabbed by a farmer forever. Asellas pushed the farmer. No, it was a shove.
"Eek?"
Asellas' eyes widened. He wanted to grab the wrist of the farmer, but his vision instantly changed to that of the sky.
'What is this…?'
Asellas lay on the ground while the Five Captains were amazed, Chris as well.
'Reidan's monster farmer…! He really exists!'
They believed it was a rumor, but now they knew it wasn't the case. Chris felt a great interest and grabbed Grid's Greatsword.
"You're the one who knocked down Zibal? Those skills, show them to me!"
