Overgeared Chapter 362:


Chapter 362

[Hooded Zip Up]

Rating: Unique

Durability: 57/61     Defense: 10

* Movement speed will increase by 30%.

* Wind resistance will increase by 20%.

A cloak designed by a legendary blacksmith. However, the appearance is different from the normal look of a cloak.

Thanks to the sylphid scales being used as the material, affinity with wind and movement speed will increase. You can hide while wearing it, but the stealth will be turned off when an enemy is attacked.

Conditions of Use: None.

Weight: 5

The biggest advantage was the duration of the Hooded Zip Up. His stealth was maintained just by wearing it. However, it didn't consume any mana because it wasn't magical invisibility. Unlike an assassin's stealth skill, it could be seen through. It had the disadvantage of being ineffective against those with sharp senses.

But this disadvantage didn't apply on the 20th island. The **** moon only depended on sight. Grid rushed forward with his movement buff, and the **** moon wasn't able to find him. Grid was able to easily break through the 20th island by avoiding the monsters scattered everywhere.

The Hooded Zip Up was the perfect counter for the 20th island.

***

[You have entered the 21st island.]

'Amazing. It's really amazing.'

Grid felt thrilled during the process of breaking through the 20th island. Was he admiring his own ability? No. Grid was admiring Kraugel. Kraugel might be a sword saint candidate, but in the end, he only had a normal class.

He didn't have access to all types of items like Grid, so how did he reach the 30th island? His skills were truly phenomenal.

'He isn't only strong in battle and hunting. Kraugel is an overwhelming monster in all respects.'

As he imagined the process that Kraugel used to pass the 20th island, Grid realized the weight of the of his nicknames.

"Challenger?"

Bini called out to the blank Grid. Grid quickly recovered and looked around. The foggy 21st island stretched out before him. He couldn't see ahead of him.

'I can't even see my hands.'

It was impossible to identify anything in front of him thanks to the thick fog. There was a sense of anxiety at not being able to see. Bini laughed at the anxious Grid.

“You are lucky to win the Fog Island. You can pass the 21st island for free."

"Fog Island?"

"It is an island with a store."

'A store…'

Grid thought about the challenger points.

"Are you talking about the Challenger Store?"

“Yes, it is a store where you can buy goods with challenger points."

"Store… In other words, the emergence of Fog Island is random?"

“That’s right. One extremely lucky person met the Fog Island on the 10th island. One unlucky person didn't see it despite reaching the 30th island.”

'That unlucky person is Kraugel.'

Oh my god, there was a person who actually had worse luck that Grid. Grid felt sympathy as he asked Bini.

"So, do you know where the store is located? I can't see in front of me because of the fog."

"It is anywhere you go. The store will naturally be waiting for you. It's better to think in advance about what you will buy from the store. The store is only open for five minutes."

“I don't know what it sells."

“Hehe, did you forget that I am the helper fairy? I have already figured out most of the goods sold in the store."

"Ohu?"

This person seemed quite helpful.

Grid admired it as Bini put on his glasses again.

"There are four types of products sold at the store on Fog Island. There are teleportation scrolls to the East Continent, elixirs, various class change books, and skill books. The class change books range from normal to rare rated, while the skill books range from normal to unique rated."

Grid's eyes widened.

The items sold in the store were really great. They were rare things that couldn't be bought with money.

“Among them, the item with the lowest value of the East Continent portal scroll. Maybe it's sold because most of the challengers come here to find a way to move to the East Continent? But you can get it for free when you meet Sticks."

"Kraugel… The person who reached the 30th island got the scroll from Sticks?"

“That’s right. But luckily for them, six challengers met the store before the 10th island and purchased the portal scroll. They didn't even try to challenge the later islands. Cowards."

'It isn't cowardly, but wise. There are seven users who have moved to the East Continent so far.'

Grid thought about it as he moved through the fog and encountered a carriage. It was a pumpkin shaped carriage that emitted a gentle and calm light.

“That is the Challenger Store."

Grid received Bini's guidance and approached the carriage. Various goods were on display in the carriage.

"Isn't there a store owner?"

"No. It's an unattended store."

“Ah."

If there was an owner, he would've been able to ask questions. Grid started to scan the products.

[East Continent Movement Portal Scroll]

You can go to the starting village of 'Pangea' on the East Continent.

Weight: 0.1

Price: 50 Challenger Points

[Elixir]

A medicine that increases a certain stat by 10 points.

Weight: 10

Price: 250 Challenger Points.

'An elixir is so cheap!'

After clearing 20 islands, Grid had exactly 901 challenger points. It meant he could buy three elixirs that were worth millions of gold. He thought of the elixirs as cheap, but the reality was quite different.

The people fortunate enough to find the pumpkin carriage on the 10th island had an average of 150 points. In other words, from a general point of view, the elixirs weren't cheap at all. It wasn't a kindness to the other challengers of Behen Archipelago, except for Grid.

Grid took a look at the other goods.

[Lightning Swordsman Class Change Book]

Rating: Rare

You can change into a lightning swordsman.

Weight: 100

Price: 1,000 Challenger Points.

[Explosion Sorcerer Class Change Book]

Rating: Rare

You can change into a explosion sorcerer.

Weight: 100

Price: 1,000 Challenger Points.

"Hrmm."

Rare rated hidden classes. A year ago, they would've sold for billions of won. Now the value of a rare class had been greatly reduced. People learned that there was a very small gap between 3rd advancement classes and rare rated classes.

Rare classes didn't go for a lot of money anymore.

'Bini said that the classes only go up to rare rated.'

Grid was disappointed after checking the list of class change books, then looked at the skill books.

[Dash to Turn the Tables]

Rating: Rare

Dashes to the target and deals damage proportional to the target's defense. They will be in a rigid state for 0.3 seconds.

Conditions of Use: None.

Price: 400 Challenger Points.

[Blazing Short Rain]

Rating: Epic

Causing a rain of fire for three seconds in the specified area. The damage dealt to the enemy is proportional to the caster's magic power and physical attack power.

Conditions of Use: None.

Price: 900 Challenger Points.

'Pass.'

Most players coveted rare and epic rated skills. But Grid had legendary skills and wasn't interested. For Grid, they were just a waste of points. However, unique rated skills were different. 

19th knight, Fulito. Like the skill book 'Aura Festival' that he dropped, all of his unique skills had an outstanding performance. Grid also desired them.

'Aura Festival is rotting in my warehouse.'

Aura Festival was a lesser version of Pagma's Swordsmanship, Transcended Link. Grid kept it in storage because there was no reason for him to learn it. He waited for an opportunity to sell it at a high price.

"Eh?"

Grid's eyes widened as he closely looked at the skills list. The skill he was looking at wasn't a hidden skill that had a rare, epic, or unique rating. It was a normal rated skill that attracted Grid's attention.

[Weapons Mastery]

Rating: Normal

Type: Passive

The Weapons Mastery skill.

Price: 6,000 Challenger Points.

'Weapons Mastery!'

Weapons Mastery. It was a skill that increase attack power and accuracy rate regardless of what type of weapon was used. Only a small number of combat specialized classes could obtain it, and it could be called the strongest weapon unique to a few classes.

However, this crazy store was selling the strongest weapon.

'I want it!'

Grid was filled with extreme greed. It was natural. Grid had the strongest passive skill that allowed him to use all weapons, so this was a ridiculous skill suited for him. His limitation was that he didn't have any mastery type skill.

Now he could overcome that limitation. It was natural that his greed was boiling. The problem was the price.

“Why is a normal skill so expensive?"

“Originally, passive skills are expensive. Among them, the Weapons Mastery skill is the most expensive."

"Shit."

The store would close soon. Grid checked the time limit and was irritated.

“If you miss this store now, does it mean I can't use it again?"

"No. As I said earlier, Fog Island randomly emerges. It might appear again in the future. But it isn't certain."

'Then I will wait for next time.'

He had to clear all the items to get Weapons Mastery. The East Continent Portal Scroll was something he could get in the process of meeting Sticks. Grid decided to leave the store. Bini's eyes glowed like lanterns as he looked at Grid.

“I was afraid that you would buy the portal scroll and leave, but you truly are the challenger who broke through to the 20th island."

“It's a waste to buy something when I can get it for free."

Would he be able to collect 6,000 challenger points?

‘Even if I fail this time…'

He would get stronger and challenge it again. Grid was sucked into the gate.

***

[You have entered the 22nd island.]

“Come quickly.”

Grid was burning with enthusiasm. As soon as he entered the new island, he looked around the structure of the island as usual while waiting for Bini to explain.

Bini explained.

"Up to the 25th island, it's a fight against time."

Then a mission was created to prove these words.

[22nd Island]

Wipe out the monsters!

First Clear Reward: 162 Challenger Points.

"Okay, I see."

Grid didn't delay. He immediately summoned the God Hands, Noe, and Randy and went to wipe out the island's monsters. Experience, skill proficiency, and challenger points piled up, causing Grid's will to burn.

Four days later. Grid killed thousands of monsters on the three islands and finally reached the 25th island.

Sticks was waiting for him.

"You… You are Pagma’s Descendant… Even… Hell's strongest… Demonic beast… If it's you… Contaminated Hall of Fame… Arrived… Ugh! Kuk!"

"…?"

Sticks fell over while talking. Grid was nervous when he saw Sticks barely breathing in a scruffy robe.

'Something is strange.'

Grid knew how unlucky he was. The cruel reality spread out in front of him.

[A quest has been created.]

[Save Sticks!]

Hidden Quest

Sticks' illness has worsened after watching your surprising performance.

Fortunately, it can still be treated with medicine. 

After learning the method to prepare the medicine from Sticks, take care of him!

Quest Acceptance Reward: 'Recipe: Elf's Miraculous Medicine' will be acquired.

Quest Reward: Affinity with Sticks will rise to the maximum.

Quest Failure: Sticks' Death.

[Would you like to accept the quest?]

“…No, why will he die if it can still be treated with medicine?"

He wasn't convinced, but it was a hidden quest. The reward seemed special and Sticks couldn't die. Grid thought as positively as possible and helped Sticks.

Sururuk.

Sticks' face was exposed as the hood fell off. He was a surprisingly young man covered in sweat. He was a beautiful man with pointed ears.

"Elf…?"

Grid had played Satisfy for nearly two years, but it was the first time he saw an elf. He was curious, but dissatisfaction filled Grid's face.

‘Normally, shouldn't it be a female elf?'

The first elf he met was a male? He had to nurse a man alone on an island with no one else! Once again, reality was relentless, unlike the movies and manhwa.

OG: 

Current schedule: 20 chapters a week.

Chapter 363

The 25th island was quite small and shabby. It was around 10 pyeong wide, and there were palm trees all over. Grid looked Sticks down under the shade of a tree and prompted.

“Hey, if you want to live then tell me the elf's recipe."

"Ugh… Urgh…"

Sticks was sweating and breathing in an uncomfortable manner. His state was so serious that it was hard for him to speak. Grid hurriedly fed various potions to him, but they didn't have any effect.

The helper fairy, Bini, trembled and made a fuss.

"Challenger! Please use your talents to save Sticks!"

What should he do? The Grid in the past would've been confused about what to do. But he had greatly developed after meeting Kraugel and challenging the Behen Archipelago. He thought of a means to overcome the situation using his expanded thinking ability.

“Believe in me and wait.”

Grid calmed Bini down and grabbed a sword.

[Great Lord's Sword]

It was a rare sword given only to the dukes of each kingdom, and greatly increased the insight, dignity and leadership of the wearer. It was a superb artifact that allowed him to peek at the stats and skills of the target NPC through the Character Observation skill.

'Sticks, if you want to live, give me a hint.'

[Character Observation has been used.]

Ttiring~

Name: Sticks

Age: 881 years old   Gender: Male

Race: Elf   Occupation: Sage

Title: Wise Star

* Benevolent and wise. Has extensive knowledge.

* Isolated for a long time from the world. His knowledge is outdated.

Level: 401

Strength: 403 (▼)   Stamina: 880 (▼)

Agility: 1,201 (▼)       Intelligence: 1,930 (▼)

Wisdom: 2876 (▼)   Charm: 2,490

Skills: Archery (B), Social Sciences (B▼), Engineering (B▼), Medicine (B▼), Humanities (B▼), Art (S), Magic Studies (S), Natural Sciences (S▼), Elementary Science (S+), Learning (SS), Education (SS).

A high elf with a noble lineage.

Originally, he should have a lifespan that is close to an eternal life. But in the process of protecting the world tree, he received the anger of the gourmet dragon Reiders and got a disease.

* Currently in a state where his overall stats are declining.

The world tree existed in Elf Forest. In other words, Sticks was originally a person from Elf Forest. Why did he come to the Behen Archipelago? Grid thought about this and turned to stare at Bini.

"Why did Sticks come to the Behen Archipelago? Is it related to the disease from Reiders?"

"Yes, that's right! His original purpose for coming here was to treat his disease!"

“Is there a medicine that grows only in this place?"

“I don't know. After coming here, I only saw Sticks eating the blue coconut… Ah!"

"It's that."

The means to treat the disease. Grid turned his gaze towards the palm trees. The blue coconuts filled his field of view. Grid had the God Hands gather the coconuts and brought them to Sticks.

“Can you calm down if you eat this?"

Sticks saw the blue coconuts and barely managed to open his mouth.

"That… It if's with the leaves of the world tree…"

"Mix them together?"

Sticks nodded. Grid cut the coconut shells while asking Bini.

"What are the leaves of the world tree?"

“I’ll find them!"

Piece by piece. Bini searched inside Sticks' robe. After a while, he pulled out some green leaves and handed them to Grid.

[Leaves of the World Tree (6) have been acquired.]

[Leaves of the World Tree]

Leaves that periodically fall from the world tree that defends nature. They don't dry out even after hundreds of years.

Weight: 0.1

“How many should I mix in?"

Sticks raised one finger at Grid's question. Grid put one leaf into the coconut and mixed it well. Then something interesting happened. The transparent liquid inside the coconut turned emerald.

[You have succeeded in preparing the 'Elf Miraculous Medicine'!]

[Recipe: Elf Miraculous Medicine has been acquired!]

[Elf Miraculous Medicine]

Recovers from all abnormal states immediately.

The effects are exceptional, but the recipe is extremely simple. Anyone can make it.

Grid was astonished.

'Recovers from all abnormal states immediately!'

It was truly a great medicine. The Overgeared members wouldn't have had such a hard time during the Elfin Stone raid if they had this.

‘But the question is how to secure a lot of leaves of the world tree and blue coconuts.'

Gulp gulp.

Was this like a person who had been thirsty for 10 years finally getting water? While Grid was thinking, Sticks was consuming the medicine. A notification window popped up in front of Grid.

[The first aid for Sticks is successful!]

[An elf will never forget your grace. Sticks sees you as a savior and will show your great affection in the future!]

"Heok… Heok… Thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to overcome a big crisis."

Sticks got up and respectfully bowed.

"I am the high elf, Sticks. Can I ask for my benefactor's name?"

Sticks's beauty was more brilliant than before after his color was restored. Despite being male, he was beautiful enough to compare to Yura and Jishuka.

"Grid."

Grid answered briefly and Sticks asked again.

"Are you Pagma’s Descendant?"

“That’s right. How did you know?"

Sticks pulled out a transparent magic orb.

"I observed you through this and realized it along the way. Powerful swordsmanship, the ability to possess and utilize all types of artifacts. Also showing great blacksmithing… There's only one person who comes to mind after all this is added up, Pagma."

Grid nodded and asked a question.

"What is the Contaminated Hall of Fame?"

“It refers to the current Behen Archipelago. The original name of the Behen Archipelago was the Hall of Fame."

“The Hall of Fame?”

“A sacred place that celebrates the feats of legends…"

Stick's golden eyes shone like jewels as he looked at Grid.

"It's a place of succession where the power left by the former legends are transferred to the current legends. It's fate that you came to this place."

"What?"

It was an unexpected and shocking answer. A notification window popped up in front of Grid.

[A legendary class quest 'Hall of Fame' has been created.]

[The legendary class quest 'Hall of Fame' has changed to 'Hidden Quest Contaminated Hall of Fame.']

***

The Overgeared members ranging from the former Tzedakah Guild members, Yura, Huroi, and Peak Sword. They were growing rapidly. They repeated hunted in the vampire cities, causing their levels to rise and the rankings to shake every day.

In particular, the vampire rings were a huge help. Unlike Grid, who steadily enjoyed the effect of Doran's Ring and the Holy Light Armor, recovery items were desperately needed by ordinary users.

“Let's move onto the next city."

The 10th city. Two months ago, Grid had encountered Braham's soul. The Overgeared members were no longer interested in a place where strong bosses didn't appear. They wanted stronger enemies for even faster growth.

“Didn't My Lord say not to widen the area because we might encounter a vampire called Marie Rose?"

“What if we don't encounter Marie Rose, but an Elfin stone level boss? We don't have God Grid this time."

Huroi and Peak Sword were cautious and wanted to listen to Grid's words. But who were Yura and the Tzedakah Guild members? They were people who always dreamed about reaching the top. Their basic ideals were very high.

“Meeting a strong enemy is also an experience."

“So what if we die? It's better to find good hunting grounds, even if we have to sacrifice ourselves, rather than become stagnant. Adventuring is the foundation of growth."

"And we have enough power to raid a Elfin Stone level boss."

The Overgeared members were growing. It was because they witnessed Grid mowing down Kraugel. They praised Kraugel as the sky above the sky and regarded him as an insurmountable wall. Thus, they felt shame after Grid broke that wall.

Why should they set limits on themselves? Why shouldn't they experience setbacks?

“It's time for a new challenge."

“Don't worry too much if we meet a vampire stronger than Elfin Stone. This time, I'm with you."

Jishuka and Yura were sympathetic to those with the radical thoughts. The situation was like this, so Huroi and Peak Sword couldn't say anything more.

On this day.

The vampire expedition led by Yura and Jishuka entered the 9th city.

***

It had been 97 years.

Sticks, who came to the Behen Archipelago to collect the blue coconuts, was astonished. He admired the islands with beautiful scenery that were a monument to admire previous legends, as well as the sanctuaries with a mysterious atmosphere.

Then it was transformed by someone and filled with trials.

“In order for the current legends to become true legends, they need to inherit the forces left behind by the former legends. However, all types of trials interfered with the legends entering, so I have to sacrifice myself."

He waited for a hero, in order to tell them the importance of the Behen Archipelago and cleansing it together. Sticks waited and dreamt about that day. 

[You have entered the 29th island.]

[This is a save point. Do you want to save your position?]

[You have been registered. When you enter the Behen Archipelago later on, you will start from the 29th island.]

Grid moved on while listening to Sticks' long story. He smiled as he passed through the 29th island.

“I will do my best so that your efforts aren't in vain."

Grid coveted many skills that Sticks had, especially the Learning and Education skills. What if he let Sticks educate the talents in Reidan, as well as his son? In short, it was the best. That's right. Grid was determined to obtain Sticks. Thus, he tried to show off his best side as much as possible.

“Believe in me."

Grid confidently said as he stepped into the gate for the 30th island.

At that moment.

[You have entered the 30th island.]

[Your level has dropped to level 1.]

"… Eh?"

Grid's eyes widened.

“This is the reason why I couldn't break through here."

Sticks belatedly sighed.

"There is a very powerful curse. I can't draw out all my strength."

“…"

Grid frowned.

TL: I know, gourmet dragon is weird, but I doubled checked with several other translators. So I guess its just a dragon that really likes food, unless the author gives a more detailed explanation later on.

OG: 

Current schedule: 20 chapters a week.

Chapter 364

According to Sticks, the Behen Archipelago was a beautiful and holy place until 200 years ago. It was praised as a sanctuary where former legends passed on their power to current legends. But that was a story of the past.

Now the Behen Archipelago was transformed into a field of trials with all types of dangers. Who caused this? Sticks didn't know, despite his age. He vaguely guessed that he would find the answer if he reached the last island.

“I must find the answer. If the succession doesn't function properly, the legends of the current day won't be able to exercise their full strength."

“What does that have to do with you?"

Sticks wasn't a legend. He wouldn't lose anything if the Hall of Fame failed to function.

“I don't know why you sacrificed 97 years because you want to purify this place. But I am thankful from my position."

Sticks smiled gently and explained his reason.

"The legends need their strength to protect the order of this world."

"The order of this world?"

It was cloudy, but Grid got a rough feeling.

“You're doing this for everyone?"

"Yes."

“It's a noble mission.”

It wasn't a mockery. His son Lord, his beloved Irene, Khan, Piaro, Jude, Rabbit, and everyone else. Grid was aware of the precious world they lived in. He didn't know the specifics, but Sticks was sacrificing himself to protect the world.

“I will repay you for your hard work. Believe in me."

Grid confidently said as he stepped into the gate for the 30th island. Then he was shocked.

[You have entered the 30th island.]

[Your level has dropped to level 1.]

“E-Eh?"

Grid doubted his eyes. His level had dropped to one? His cognitive ability couldn't figure this out.

'What is this?'

Sticks sighed and said to the confused Grid.

“Has your body changed? This is the reason why I couldn't break through here. There is a very powerful curse, so I can't draw out all my strength."

“…"

No, wasn't it too much for a curse to bring him back to level one? Sticks explained to Grid.

“It reproduces the nightmare of the challenger."

The 30th island, Nightmare.

"This island reproduces the greatest trial that the challenger has already experienced. In my case, I was confronted with Reiders in front of the world tree. My power was suppressed to what it used to be and I couldn't run away from Reiders. I can never break through the 30th island. I hope that the trials you experienced in the past aren't too heavy."

"…?"

A question mark appeared above Grid's head as he listened to Sticks.

'Wasn't the greatest trial when I was looking for Pagma's Rare Book?' 

His level and situation at that time should be reproduced, so why was he level one? What big ordeal could he experience at level one?

"…Ah."

Grid looked around at the scenery of the island and frowned. The scene reproduced by the 30th island. He belatedly realized that it was the beginner area around the fortified city of Patrian.

'I was killed dozens of times by the rabbits and bears.'

It was the moment when the black history he sealed off for his self-defense emerged again.

***

"Piaro intervened."

The showdown between the 1st ranked Kraugel and legendary class Grid. Chairman Lim Cheolho watched the recorded video from beginning to end and was convinced by the results.

"But surely… I didn't know that Kraugel would challenge Piaro."

Kraugel's pride and challenging spirit was higher than predicted, as he chose the hard way by challenging the strongest. Lim Cheolho emptied a beer can and laughed.

"I never imagined that Piaro would grow to that extent."

It wasn't enough to create a new legendary class, which was different from the nine legendary classes that were inherited. Piaro's current appearance was contradictory to the original plan. 'Originally, he was a key character prepared for the Empress Marie, Episode 3 storyline, as well as the people's alliance storyline.

Grid was amazing, finding a character filled with hatred and vengeance and making him walk a new path.

'Making an NPC his subordinate and actively utilizing him…'

Satisfy was a game with a large degree of freedom. He didn't know if Grid did this on purpose from beginning to end.

"Um."

Chairman Lim Cheolho emptied his third can of beer and rose from his seat. It was to get a new can of beer out of the fridge. At that moment.

[Quest SH100B7 has been triggered.]

"…!"

Chairman Lim Cheolho's eyes widened as he heard Morpheus' words.

“By whom?"

In fact, it was a nonsensical question. Quest SH100B7. It was a quest activated when a legendary class user reached the 25th island of the Contaminated Heben Archipelago.  At this point, there were only two legendary classes.

Grid and Yura. But Yura's level was still too low.

[Grid.]

“Kuooh, of course."

Lim Cheolho was sad. Grid's current self couldn't clear the Contaminated Behen Archipelago quest.

“It is relatively easy to reach the 25th island using items…" 

But from the 30th island, a higher level of control was required. Most of the items wouldn't be applied, so Grid was at a disadvantage.

"It might be possible if Grid maintains his current growth and challenges it again in half a year.  At present, isn't the quest clearance rate close to zero?"

Morpheus replied with an answer that surprised Lim Cheolho.

[Grid has a 88.19% of clearing the SH100B7 quest. The difficulty of his trials is very low.]

“…"

Lim Cheolho ordered one more chicken. He was planning to monitor Grid in real time.

***

[30th Island]

The place and situation where you had the most deaths is 100% recreated.

Overcome the trial and jump past your previous self!

Mission Clear Condition: Gain three levels.

First Clear Reward: 500 Challenger Points.

[The mission will start 30 minutes from now.]

'The space where I suffered the most deaths…'

Thus, the space reproduced was the novice area of Patrian. It was a reminder of how incompetent Grid was when he first started playing the virtual reality game.

Hop hop.

Bark bark. Bark bark bark!

There were rabbits in the forest, deer at the lake shore, and dogs playing with children. Sticks nervously observed the scenery of the peaceful forest and tilted his head.

"Why was this chosen as a trial?"

Grid was too embarrassed to explain to Sticks. It was too unfortunate to see that these rabbits and deer were comparable to a terrible dragon like Reiders. Therefore, Grid remained silent as he opened his status window.

Name: Grid

Class: Beginner

Health: 123    Mana: 15

Strength: 6   Stamina: 7

Agility: 4     Intelligence: 5

Skills Possessed: None

“…"

The situation was recreated 100%, so even his class and titles were reset. He was armed with equipment for beginners. Most of his hard earned items were disabled.

Sticks kept making a fuss.

“Where is this place? It's so common that it's difficult to tell. Is there a huge monster at the end of this forest? An ordeal given to Pagma’s Descendant… Heok, don't tell me you met a dragon? This… It's said that the difficulty of the 30th island has increased in proportion to the challenger's ability."

“…"

Grid didn't say anything. He ignored Sticks, walking out towards the rabbits grazing.

'I will get revenge.'

He hadn't been able to adapt to virtual reality games yet. He couldn't move his fingers or toes at all, and his arms and legs moved separately from what he wanted.

'The white rabbit who killed me with its front teeth, the black rabbit who slapped me with its hind legs, the grey rabbit that headbutted me to death!'

He would completely wash away his disgrace and write a new history!

Buuong~

Grid firmed up his heart and wielded his sword. The wooden sword flew at a very slow speed. It was a level that the hopping rabbits could avoid.

"Kuk."

Just a few minutes ago, Grid had 2,800 strength and 1,800 agility. It was difficult to adapt after it decreased to 6 and 4 points respectively. It was like regressing from a healthy adult to a newborn baby.

Grid was embarrassed by the slow attack as the rabbit ran up to him. In the past, the grey rabbit had given Grid **** by hitting him a few times. But now its strikes couldn't hit Grid.

Deftly.

Grid used the footwork of Pagma's Swordsmanship, Link, to move to the left and evade the grey rabbit. They were skilled movements that an ordinary level 1 user wouldn't be able to show. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that it was like a level 60 user. It was enough to be listed in the Guinness Book of Records for movements that a level 1 beginner could show.

"Okay!"

Grid marvelled at his own ability. However, there was no time to rest. The rabbit started to realize that its attack was in vain and called its kin for a pincer attack.

"This…!"

Grid's face tensed for the first time. In the past, he would've allowed the rabbits' pincer attack. But now Grid was different.

"I…!"

Teong!

Grid showed the highest concentration as he blocked the white rabbit's long, pointed front teeth with a wooden sword. At the same time, he aimed his fist.

Peeok!

The white rabbit was in tears after being hit hard. The eyes of the black rabbit shone. The black rabbit's kick aimed at Grid's chest, who avoided it.

'This ridiculous guy.'

Grid scoffed and aimed his wooden sword.

Ppak!

Jjik!

The black rabbit's head was hit hard and it collapsed. Grid kicked it and roared.

"I am a legend!!!"

Currently, Grid's performance was higher than his stats.

In no time, he had fully adapted to his 6 strength and 4 agility, and could freely manipulate his body to strike at the rabbit with the wooden sword.

He was the legend who killed several strong bosses, such as the Yatan Servants, Pope Drevigo, the Great Demon Hell Gao, Vampire Earl Elfin Stone, and who had experience fighting the legendary Piaro and 1st ranked Kraugel.

Peeok! Peok peok! Peeeeok!

Grid's fighting style became more sophisticated the more he fought. He beat the rabbits with a skill that was hard to believe for a level 1 user. But Sticks wasn't inspired as he watched from the side.

At the same time, in Reidan.

"Abubu! Abuoo~!"

Lord, armed with the 'Baby Wooden Sword' made by his father Grid, was hunting a 'desert rabbit' that was twice as powerful as a normal rabbit. Lord caught the rabbit while crawling around on all fours. It was enough to raise the admiration of Piaro, who once dreamt of being a sword saint.

‘The young lord has an excellent talent in swordsmanship.'

Perhaps, the ultimate genius wasn't Kraugel, as Piaro thought.
