Overgeared

Chapter 114

Grid was stunned at the lump of gold in front of him. In the meantime, someone’s shadow appeared from the box that was emitting smoke. Jishuka detected it and reflexively attacked.

Paang!

She loaded an arrow in less than a second and fired. How would the presence reply to the rapid-fire attack?

Peng!

“Eh?”

“What?”

Jishuka and Vantner were shocked. The shadow protruding from the box extended a finger and burned Jishuka’s arrow to ashes.

[I’m not welcome in the world after 300 years? It’s sad.]

The shadow was a long-haired, handsome man. The eyes that could be seen through the flowing hair were sharp. He looked at Jishuka and Vantner in turn, before looking at Grid like he wasn’t interested in them.

‘This man, he is strong. At minimum, he’s on the same level as Malacus.’

He had directly invalidated Jishuka’s quick fire attack. Jishuka and Vantner were certain they would lose if they fought. They were relieved that he wasn’t interested in them. But Grid was different. He was unable to grasp the situation and shouted furiously at the one who tried to kill him.

“You jerk! Why are you trying to kill a person all of a sudden? You lousy bastard! How are you going to take responsibility for your actions? Huh? Heok?”

Grid, who had pulled out Dainsleif, suddenly winced with fear and backed down. The man who appeared from the box had a transparent body and his feet were floating in the air. He was a ghost.

“H-Hik…!”

He thought a person with a flexible body had emerged from the small box, but it was actually a ghost.

Grid was an army soldier who dedicated himself to his country, but he was sadly weak against ghosts. He was filled with so much fear he thought he would urinate. His face was pale and stricken.

‘I should’ve entered the marines!’

Grid was caught up in a belated regret when the ghost spoke to him.

[You survived my magic traps. You opened all three boxes that had different types of locks. Since you were protected by the pavranium, are you Pagma’s Descendant?]

“Pagma’s Descendant? What is that?”

“Shh. Grid’s quest seems to be progressing. Be quiet and don’t interrupt.”

Jishuka withdrew to a corner and brought the bewildered Vantner with her. Her eyes were shining as she stared at Grid and the ghost talking.

‘This is an opportunity to find out exactly what Grid’s class is.’

On the other hand, Grid started to recover from seeing a ghost.

‘He mentioned Pagma’s Descendant… Is the stagnant class quest going to proceed again?’

Grid’s spirit had now completely recovered. He took a deep breath and replied.

“That’s right. I am Pagma’s Descendant. Who are you?”

The ghost man responded.

[I was known as the Great Magician Braham. Did you come to the labyrinth that I designed for the minerals? If you are Pagma’s Descendant, you should’ve been interested in this place a long time ago. You don’t seem to have much curiosity and attachment to minerals, unlike Pagma.]

This ghost claimed to be the legendary great magician, Braham! If Grid interpreted what he was saying, the Golem’s Labyrinth seemed to be a place created for Pagma’s Descendant. It was a very attractive place to Grid because the golems were made of many minerals and the labyrinth itself was a mine. He was able to collect minerals from anywhere in the labyrinth.
