Overgeared

Chapter 65

Chapter 65

Until I made the Sword of Self-transcendence, the details of all the items I made were accompanied by the modifier: made by a craftsman with great skills and potential, but lacks experience and reputation.

But now it had changed to ‘a craftsman with great skills and potential, but his experience and reputation is somewhat lacking.’ I felt a little bit recognized. Anyway, I got a new production hammer, so I was more likely to make rare and epic rated items. In addition, the probability of making normal rated items was relatively low.

It was fortunate that I realized the importance of a production hammer and managed to obtain a new one, even if it was delayed.

I was about to launch my operation to make more money.

‘I’ve replaced the hammer so should I now make epic, unique or legendary items?’

Khan interrupted me as I was about to start. “Grid, will you come to my son’s grave with me? Actually, today is the anniversary of my son’s death.”

I didn’t want to waste time at an unnecessary place when I could be making items to sell. But Khan’s request couldn’t be dismissed. Khan was my only friend in reality and Satisfy.

‘An NPC is my only friend… how depressing…’

I decided to postpone my work.

“Let’s go.”

***

At a small hill north of Winston. There were around 10 graves on the hill.

‘This is too small to be a cemetery…’

Khan saw my look and explained. “This is the cemetery where not just my son, but my ancestors are buried.”

“I see.”

Khan stood in front of his son’s gravestone and smiled. Khan missed his son.

“My son… He had excellent qualities as a blacksmith. I had no doubt that he would become a great blacksmith who would surpass me, and maybe even have the same reputation as Albatino. Unfortunately, he died early.”

Tears filled Khan’s eyes.

“The pain of losing a son is incredibly big. It has been 10 years since he died, but I still miss him and feel regret towards his death. If possible, I would revive him, even if I needed to sacrifice my own life.”

I didn’t know what to say. It was impossible for me to understand the mind of a parent who lost their child. I stood there with an awkward expression, and the tearful Khan suddenly laughed.

“I’m glad you’re here.”

“…”

“Every day, every day… I couldn’t work properly because of nostalgia and despair. But ever since meeting you, I have felt surprised and excited. Didn’t I stop drinking because of you? Now, please say hello to my son.”

Khan stood straight in front of his son’s gravestone. Then he spoke towards the gravestone.

“Son, this is Pagma’s Descendant, who I told you about every night. Isn’t it great to meet him? Are you surprised? Isn’t it great? Are you wondering why such a person is with your father?”

“Khan…”

Khan started crying again. He finally sank to his knees, hugging the gravestone while exclaiming. “Don’t worry! Don’t worry! Your father is doing well, so don’t worry! This great person is taking care of your father! He promised to take care of the smithy! So relax and don’t worry. Rest in peace… Sob…sob sob.”

“…”

Countless NPCs existed in Satisfy. Every one of them were alive with stories and feelings like this. Amazing. I truly admired Satisfy’s technology.

“… Damn, they should do it moderately.”

My vision was cloudy from the dust in my eyes. I moved my gaze to the sky due to a lump in my throat. Then I promised. “Your father is my most precious friend. I will treat him well. I’ll also make the smithy the best. So… as you father said, rest in peace.”

Then a notification window popped up.
