Overgeared

Chapter 916

‘What are you up to?’

Grid was the person who previously beat Hurent in just five seconds. Consequently, Grid was able to anticipate that Hurent resented him for the aftermath of the ‘five seconds’ incident. Yet...

‘What is this?’

What was this loving attention?

‘I feel very uncomfortable.’

Seeing Hurent’s shining gaze, Grid felt burdened and turned away. It was an effort to wake himself up.

‘I have to think about it first.'

Grid judged this and opened his mouth to say, “Did you take the wrong medicine? Why are you looking at me with such eyes?”

He was wary. However, Hurent was trying to appeal to him with his eyes, so Grid couldn’t make any rash moves.

‘I have to grasp the intent behind his ways to understand what he is interested in.’

It was fine. He could do it. Grid had spent the last year trying to use his head! He encouraged himself, thinking he no longer had a stone brain.

“Huhuhut. There is no need to act. Oh, I am older than you. Can I speak in a more relaxed manner?”

As Hurent’s nonsense began, Grid fell into confusion.

“Act?”

It didn’t matter if Hurent spoke less politely, and it was strange to listen to an old man talk in a polite way the whole time anyway. Why did he suddenly say that Grid was acting though?

‘How am I acting?’

It felt like he was in front of a sphinx!

Hurent bowed to the baffled Grid. It wasn’t a perfunctory bow that would make others want to slap him. He bowed with deep respect. “Thank you for your care over the past few years. I am amazed and honored that despite knowing the intentions behind why I came to the Overgeared Kingdom, you observed me instead of disturbing me. I feel embarrassed thinking about the days when I was obsessed with getting revenge on you.”

“...???”

“I’m serious. Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to watch a competitor who can be a threat without being prejudiced about the past while also giving them new opportunities. Grid, I am fascinated by your boldness.”

“...????” Question marks continued to appear over Grid’s head. Grid was still feeling lost when Hurent showed a bitter smile and said, “You kept watching... I also thank you for being concerned about me fighting in the fields. Still, I feel it is somewhat bittersweet. I’m so weak that you defeated me in five seconds, and I can’t beat the farmers in this kingdom... It must’ve been difficult to see such a thrilling battle.”

“...”

This was crazy. Hurent wasn’t sane. It was obvious that this human was crazy.

Grid was watching Hurent...? He was considerate enough to give Hurent new opportunities… and he protected Hurent in the fight...?

‘Since when? Ah!’ Grid stared at Hurent like he was a madman before belatedly realizing that Hurent was wearing dirt-covered clothes and there was a straw hat at his feet. ‘...Is he the second Kraugel?’

Grid’s head was definitely working better than before. As soon as he heard Hurent’s story and confirmed the pattern, he gained a rough grasp of the situation. ‘This guy has been a farmer in the Overgeared Kingdom for the past few years and mistakenly thought I knew about it. He misunderstood my intrusion in the fight as an act to protect him.’
