Overgeared

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?
