Overgeared

Demonic power was poison. If he died in Blackening state, there was a possibility of being forced into hell. There was also the possibility of his race changing to a demon, becoming a demon in Satisfy’s world view, and many other possible side effects. A typical example was Baal’s gaze.

Grid had already experienced that the higher his demonic power, the greater the chances of being exposed to Baal’s gaze. This made him feel scared. However, he never wanted demonic power to be extinguished, nor did he avoid the accumulation of demonic power.

Blackening and the Rune of Darkness—Grid’s favored abilities were closely related to demonic power. Blackening was a skill that couldn’t be used without demonic power. Additionally, certain skills attached to the Rune of Darkness would have fewer penalties in the Blackening state. Even the prerequisite for having Noe as a pet was demonic power.

Demonic power was a poison that could be deadly but it was also one of the forces that formed Grid’s foundation. Grid was in a position to fully control it, rather than fearing and avoiding demonic power.

‘Damn, what’s going on?’

[The effect of Duke of Virtue is purifying your demonic power.]

[Demonic power is purified and Blackening can’t be used.]

[A new skill is created using the effect of Duke of Virtue.]

Was he going to lose demonic power? Grid was greatly flustered. First, he wanted to check his condition. However, he wasn’t allowed this time.

“Your face is changing frequently.”

“...!”

Grid, who was trying to bring up the skills list, hurriedly pulled out his sword and held it. A man of great beauty was right in front of him. It was Garam.

[An unknown person is writing the fourth epic.]

Lips that stretched out coldly and dark eyes. Garam, who he met again after a long time, still boasted a pleasing appearance. Even so, Grid knew—the man in front of him was one of the most arrogant, cunning, and cruel beings in the world. He couldn’t be fooled by appearance. He couldn’t forget the vicious slaughter of the residents who remained in Pangea and the blacksmiths...

Grid swung his sword viciously. He used Blacksmith's Rage, Quick Movements, and Blackening out of habit but the absence of demonic power prevented him from using Blackening. At the same time, Garam’s short spear moved quickly enough to cut apart the dozens of energy blades coming from Grid’s sword. It was a stabbing attack that directly penetrated the center of Link, which had spread out like a net, and Grid’s sword stopped helplessly.

“Slow.” Garam’s words were short. He had been training using his anger toward Grid as a springboard and he was much stronger than the last time they met.

“No matter who you are, you can’t go against him! Run away!” Tosun shouted as she jumped and kicked at Garam with an amazing lower body power. Garam’s short spear stabbed at Tosun but Tosun was nimble. She wasn’t a normal existence. She was someone who once served the Four Auspicious Beasts but Garam was even greater.

The sword hanging from Garam’s waist was suddenly unfurled and wielded. It twisted its trajectory like a living creature and wrapped around Tosun’s ankle.

“...!”

“...!”

Changing the direction of already released sword energy? Grid and Tosun were stunned by the incredible sight and Garam declared, “All things in Heaven and Earth will move according to God’s will.”

A god—Garam called himself a holy being without any doubts. Did he build up even more divinity? His pride that soared into the sky seemed to have gotten even higher.

“Ugh! Run away! I’ll buy you some time.” Tosun urged as she stood in front of Grid and took an unfamiliar martial arts stance. She had great strength in her lower body but she seemed unstable due to her injured ankle. Nevertheless, she seemed to have no intention of backing down. Like the blue tiger, she was determined to protect Grid at her own expense. She didn’t want Grid’s Red Phoenix Bow to return to the yangbans.

“Please! Please run away safely...!”

[The beginning of the story comes from the desire of the fleeting people who have been forgotten.]

“Protect the red phoenix on our behalf!”

“....”

[He saw an unchanging faith in the face of the coming disaster.]

[He revisited the meaning of a god through those who worship the gods, despite losing everything because of the failure of the gods they believed in and served.]
