Overgeared

‘It would be good to make items with their bones.’

Grid tapped the Overgeared Skeletons’ golden bones. They were dense and hard enough to make no sound.

‘Bones are crafting materials that can pursue extreme sharpness, but they are weak in durability. However, the bones of the Overgeared Skeletons aren’t weak at all. It is fine to classify them as a blue orichalcum class material.’

The Overgeared Skeletons themselves were a special existence, and they were strengthened by absorbing the bones of skeletons that were over level 350. Moreover, there was room for further strengthening in the future. There were the bones of undead stronger than Galgunos’ skeleton soldiers. This was under the premise that Grid should save the bones of humanoid undead.

‘It is a problem that time will solve.’

In the end, the bones of the Overgeared Skeletons were a crafting material that would rise in grade over time and the supplies were easily obtainable. The Overgeared Skeletons could pull out their own bones whenever they made an item. The reason for this improbable idea was Overgeared Skeleton Two’s restoration ability.

That’s right. Grid was dreaming of infinite power with advanced items. Theoretically, it was a perfect idea. There was one fatal problem though.

‘I have to consume one of the Legendary Blacksmith’s Creation slots.’

The premise of this item used the bones of the Overgeared Skeletons as a material. Such an item didn’t exist, so Grid had to create it himself. Moreover, the use of the Legendary Blacksmith’s Creation skill was limited, so he had to be careful.

‘This is a good investment if I consider that the bones of the Overgeared Skeletons can be strengthened...’

It was important to think carefully. He rubbed the round skulls of the Overgeared Skeletons, who were making uneasy expressions. Then a notification window popped up in Grid’s field of view.

[There are five minutes left in your daily access time.]

Over the past month, Grid had been raising his level at a speed different from others. It was possible because Grid’s ability to hunt was exceptional, but it was also because of his efforts. Grid focused on hunting 16 hours a day. He reduced his sleeping time to focus on the game and thoroughly managed his eating and exercise schedule. Well, it wasn’t just something he was doing now. He had been maintaining this schedule for the last few years.

“Umm...”

Grid logged out and returned to Shin Youngwoo. His expression was exhausted as he got out of the capsule. He lay in bed and wanted to sleep until tomorrow morning. His mind was tired enough to rest for a day. The psychological factor had a huge impact on him.

After the big event that was the demon king subjugation, a strange sense of inertia dominated him. Grid tried not to show it to others, but his mind and body were exhausted. He wanted to have a good rest as psychological compensation for the big event. Then he was reminded of his past and corrected his heart.

‘I can’t go back to the old days...’

He couldn’t be careless. The other competitors were trying as hard as he was. He might be ahead right now, but there was a chance for them to catch up and for him to fall into hell.

‘Wake up.’

Youngwoo slapped his cheeks, washed his face with cold water, and did simple exercises. Then he took a shower and put on a coat. Today was the 1st anniversary of Khan’s death. It was already the third cycle in Satisfy, and he had always visited Khan’s grave to maintain it. However, there was only one way to commemorate it in reality. It might be a way to appease Youngwoo’s heart.

Ding dong~!

He got into the elevator and pressed the button for the ground floor, but it stopped downstairs. Having received the signal that Youngwoo had activated the elevator, Toon immediately reacted to it. “Are you going somewhere?”

“I’m going to have a drink.”

“Yes, let’s go.”

Youngwoo waved his hand at Toon who was grabbing a coat. “I’ll go alone.”

“No.” Toon was determined. Youngwoo might’ve accumulated many relationships in Satisfy, but he was still a lonely person.

“If you want to drink alone, I’ll sit at another table and wait.” Toon had become quite skillful in Korean.

Youngwoo smiled bitterly. “Thank you, but today, I want to feel alone. Don't worry. Don’t you know? I am very popular these days.”

At the very least, he was safe in South Korea. To the people of South Korea, Youngwoo was a hero.

‘Today is Khan’s first death anniversary, and he’s determined...’

It was as expected. Toon looked at the stubborn Youngwoo and nodded. “Then let’s ride separate cars. I will stay at a distance so you can feel alone.”

“...”

“This is the maximum I can concede.”

“...Yes, I understand.”
