Chapter 392
‘Really long…’
Grid had been **** by the 41st island for five days . If Grid was an ordinary player, he likely would’ve been satisfied and abandoned the 41st island the moment that his new skills were acquired .
This was normal . What player in this world could repeatedly challenge death? There would only be 1 in every 10,000 . The more high level a player was, the more cautious they were .
But Grid wasn’t an ordinary person . He was obsessed with overcoming his inadequate talent and was persistent . For Grid, giving up was a concept that should be avoided, and was one of the driving forces behind why he could stand shoulder to shoulder with geniuses .
“Well, it ended sooner than expected . ”
He didn’t know that the effect of the Motley Flail would resolve it from the beginning . He thought he would have to repeat his death several times . Yet the best outcome occurred in the very first fight .
‘God has a conscience . ’
Was God sorry about always giving Grid bad luck and gave him good luck once in a while?
Ssik!
Grid smiled as he swapped to Grid’s Greatsword and neared the clone . The clone was in the immortal state . Grid was cautious of Meditation, so he was thankful for the clone’s actions .
“Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Linked Kill Wave . ”
Kwa kwa kwa kwang!
The sword technique was unfolded and eight stormy energy blades flooded towards Grid . Grid was lost the immortal passive, so the clone needed to gain the advantage in these five seconds . It was what Grid expected .
“Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Linked Kill Wave . ”
Compared to the best artificial intelligence, his skill development rate was rather slow . Originally, it was difficult for him to use Linked Wave Kill, but the power of ‘prediction’ was great . Grid anticipated that the clone would use Linked Wave Kill and succeeded in unfolding it at the same time .
Kwa kwa kwa kwang!
The storm of swords swallowed up each other and a powerful shock wave occurred . The land shook and the sea became chaotic .
“Noe! Randy!”
“Nyaang!”
“Yes!”
A tsunami seemed like it would swallow the island . Noe and Randy flew towards the clone at the same time . Randy used Link while Noe opened his mouth and attempted to steal the stats . But the clone wasn’t easy .
“Blackening, Blacksmith’s Rage, and Quick Movements . ”
Peeng!
The clone used buff skills as an explosion of dark magic occurred around him, shrugging off Noe and Randy and aiming for Grid .
“Kuk…!”
The movements were as fast as lightning . Grid reeled back as he was stabbed in the heart with Iyarugt . If the tsunami hadn’t covered Grid and the clone at the same time, a combo would’ve succeeded .
Kwa kwa kwang!
Grid and the clone were swept to the edge of the island by the tsunami . He swapped from Grid’s Boots to Braham’s Boots and used Fly to escape the destruction of the sea .
“Heok… Heok…”
The damp Grid laughed while panting . On the other hand, the clone revealed impatience . There was less than two seconds remaining on the immortality .
“Magic Missile . ”
Pepepepeng!
He summoned the fake God Hands and fired four Magic Missiles at Grid . At the same time, the clone used Transcended Link . Surprisingly, Grid responded with Revolve . Why would he use Revolve first when it was unconditionally disadvantageous to him?
The clone was confused and also started to use Revolve . But at that moment .
Pe-ng!
“…!!”
A flash of light struck the clone, who had been paying attention to the approaching strengthened Transcended Link . Where did this attack come from? It was from below . It came from the sea where the clone was standing .
Magic Missile flew from it . The moment that the tsunami occurred, Grid left one of the God Hands in the sea and waited for this moment .
“Ack…!”
The clone stumbled . He had a pale complexion and coughed up blood . It was an unbelievable situation for the clone . Placing items to take advantage of the terrain and using a skill to draw attention? It was ridiculous that Grid had threatened the clone with such a trick .
“Haven’t I grown? It is all thanks to you . You have helped a lot in developing me . ”
Grid dealt the killing blow .
“Kuaaaaak!”
The clone screamed with rage as it turned to grey .
[You have won the fight against yourself!]
[You have succeeded in beating the 41st island!]
[You have acquired 1 skill level point from the mission clear reward . ]
Grid lost a huge 61 . 2% experience from the 42nd island . As a result, Grid’s level fell to 305 . He would have to hunt for at least 20 days to recover 61 . 2% of his experience . The time loss was enormous .
But Grid didn’t think he received any damages . He gained the strongest skills Linked Kill Wave and Pinnacle Kill, as well as rich combat experience .
“Very good . ”
It was strength that transcended the concept of level . A noble pride could be seen in Grid’s smile of satisfaction . A notification window popped up in front of Grid .
[You have overcome your limitations and have taken one step closer to being a legend . ]
[One of Pagma’s Descendant’s hidden pieces ‘Sealed Ability’ has been acquired . ]
[The skill ‘Blacksmith’s Eyes’ has been acquired . ]
So far, Grid had acquired three hidden pieces . The first hidden piece gave him a 10% reduction in his skills cooldown time and also the Item Modification skill . He got Item Combination from the second hidden piece, and Minerals Strengthening from the third one .
‘Since then, it’s been a while…’
Blacksmith’s Eyes? Grid felt anticipation as he checked the description of the skill .
[Blacksmith’s Eyes]
You can see some of the abilities and options when looking at the target item . Limited to equipped items .
* The closer the distance to the target item, the better the analytical power .
“In short… It is an item observation skill that applies to items I don’t own . ”
For example, he could get a glimpse of the armor and weapon that the enemy was using?
“…?”
What was the point of this skill? What was the point of checking items? Grid thought for a moment and was belatedly thrilled .
“Heok, isn’t this a huge skill?”
It was a huge scam being able to see the details of the enemy’s items . Why? He could block the trump cards hidden in the enemy’s items in advance, and also exploit the weaknesses .
“Kuoh…”
Grid’s fists clenched as he shuddered . It was a state where he couldn’t contain his joy .
“I like it when Grid is happy . ”
“Me too, nyang . ”
Noe and Randy laughed and Grid stroked their heads . Sticks smiled as he watched the group of three . There was one fact that Grid overlooked . Grid’s clone had died in the Blackening State . The present Grid never imagined that this variable would provide a fun and positive environment for him .

[Skill Level Point]
Increases the skill level of a specified skill by 100% .
“Um . ”
Raise the level of any skill?
It would be nice to raise the level of powerful fusion skills like Linked Kill Wave, Pinnacle Kill, Transcended Link and Linked Kill . Unfortunately, the fusion skills didn’t have the concept of level .
They were so powerful that they were already judged as complete skills .
‘It is better to raise the level of Kill . ’
No, it might not be the case . Grid couldn’t decide hastily .
‘It might be good to raise the Legendary Blacksmith’s Craftsmanship Skill . ’
It was hard to choose right now . Grid decided to save the skill point and not use it hastily . Then Sticks approached him .
“Do you want to move on to the next island?”
Grid nodded without hesitation .
“I will do that . ”
There was 36 days left until the National Competition . Prior to that, Grid planned to capture all of the Behen Archipelago, so he hastened his steps .
[You have entered the 42nd island . ]
[You have entered the 43rd island . ]
[You have entered the…]
The trials to overcome himself seemed to have ended . The 42nd to 49th islands were ordinary missions such as monster hunting and boss raids .
‘It is comfortable . ’
The monsters inhabiting the islands in the 40’s weren’t weak . They were just very easy compared to when dealing with his clone . Thus, Grid’s momentum continued until he reached the 50th island .
***
Braham, who had mastered magic while being a direct descendant of Shizo Beriache . In the end, he was regarded as a legend and was close to the title of the strongest . Then what about now? After losing his body and becoming a soul, he was weak and miserable . The glory of the past couldn’t be found anywhere .
[Dammit…! Dammit!]
The 1st great demon, Baal . That monster’s contractor was one of the few people able to fight with a dragon . They caused trouble for Braham every time .
[It can’t happen again this time . ]
Braham went looking for his body sealed at the Sword Grave, only to be weakened by Agnus . He felt irritation at his soul losing strength and was eventually reminded of Grid .
[Pagma’s Descendant will be able to do it . ]
Just as Pagma had the power of a great demon .
Pa-at!
Braham’s soul squeezed out all his remaining magic power and triggered detection magic throughout the continent . It was to find Grid .
