Overgeared

[Braham’s soul has left.]

The friend he built up many memories with had left him, but there was only a short notification window.

The system didn’t understand the friendship between the two of them.

“Braham...”

Grid was left alone and felt depressed. He could no longer feel Braham’s soul in his chest, causing him to be overwhelmed by a sense of loss that was difficult to describe.

“...”

His legs wouldn’t fall. Grid stood firmly in place, looking at the blue trail that Braham’s soul left in the sky. He continued for a long time after the trail had completely disappeared.

Oasis. He became a candidate to be the Undefeated King’s descendant, but he was gradually moving away from his dream. He was stunned in this war. Pagma’s Descendant, Grid. The hero of this era who became the first king with natural talent (?). Wealth, fame, and women. Having secured everything, now he used the Undefeated King’s swordsmanship.

Oasis felt a sense of deprivation. Why was the world so unfair? This world was for main characters only! The awful reality made Oasis sad. He felt that Grid was dominating all the luck in the world and resented the world’s unfairness. But now.

'...He is truly an amazing person. Yes, like Ares said, good luck doesn’t exist. Grid was qualified, so he could become a main character.’

Oasis no longer blamed the world. He couldn’t envy Grid. The five pillars. Oasis shook as the Ares Army dealt with the remnants of the empire and observed Grid.

‘Grid... He has been locked in thought for five hours...’

Why was Grid staring up at the sky after the battle?

‘He’s replaying the fight.’

Oasis was convinced. Grid was like this all the time.

‘After experiencing some incidents... Grid always spent hours replaying the situation. Then he would use it as food for growth to develop constantly.’

Replaying the battle. It was easy to say, but who could do it every time? In particular, Grid invested a few hours.

‘Amazing... Really amazing. I can’t even be jealous. Grid is different from me.’

Well, of course. While he was an ordinary person, Grid was the best ranker who achieved countless great feats. No, he was one of the best. He couldn’t be compared.

Kkuok.

Oasis gripped the Undefeated King’s old sheath tightly. He was conflicted. Could he really keep this sheath? He had lost his qualification to become the Undefeated King’s descendant. After much struggling.

‘I can’t.’

The Undefeated King. It was impossible for Oasis. He realized reality.

‘The rightful owner of the sheath is Grid.’

Grid already had the Undefeated King’s swordsmanship. If he obtained the old sheath, he would be immediately chosen as the Undefeated King’s descendant.
