Overgeared

Chapter 241

Kraugel was just walking along. He couldn’t think of anything in his behavior that would’ve caused wariness. So why was this person blocking the road? The farmer’s attitude didn’t make sense.

Kraugel felt doubts before making a reasonable guess.

‘It’s rare for people to come here, so they are unfamiliar with it.’

Reidan was isolated. The size of the desert might’ve been reduced by Grid and the Overgeared members’ activities, but accessibility was still low. It was almost impossible to make it past the desert to Reidan until it was a party of rankers.

‘There aren’t any outsiders here so… It’s natural for the residents to be wary of outsiders.’

Kraugel guessed the reason for the farmer’s attitude and explained.

“I am an ordinary adventurer. I’m not a suspicious person, so you don’t have to worry.”

Kraugel’s reputation across the continent exceeded 40,000. Since Satisfy opened, he had always maintained his first place ranking and cleared dungeons and quests faster than others, gaining reputation from this. At the present time, Kraugel was the only person who could use the Reputation Store.

‘My high reputation will give confidence to that NPC.’

Kraugel thought the farmer would release his vigilance and step back. But what was this? The farmer showed an unexpected reaction.

“Based on your stride, you’re not an ordinary adventurer.”

“…!”

There was no change in Kraugel’s expression. He smiled as always. But his mind was quite shaken.

‘My stride is unusual? Is he referring to White Light Steps?’

White Light Steps was a skill Kraugel acquired after becoming the White Swordsman. Basically, it increased his movement speed and ability to adapt to terrain. It could also be used for dashing or evasion. The white light normally couldn’t be seen unless under intense sunlight or clear moonlight.

‘He isn’t an ordinary farmer.’

The NPC in front of him, Piaro, looked like a farmer in every way. He wore a straw hat to protect him from the sun, dirty work clothes, and held a hand plow and hoe in his hands. It was difficult to recognize him as anything other than a farmer.

But you shouldn’t judge people by appearances. Kraugel’s sharp eyes examined Piaro.

“Who are you really? You aren’t a normal farmer, are you?”

Piaro wanted to answer Kraugel honestly.

‘I have always dreamed of a confrontation with a strong person like you, who is also wishing to achieve the status of sword saint. Compete with me.’ This was what he wanted to say.

“I…”

“Piaro! It’s time to take a break! You worked hard in today’s farming, so eat a lot!”

One farmer couldn’t grasp the atmosphere and came shouting. It was really exquisite timing. Thanks to that, Piaro was embarrassed.
