Overgeared

“If Your Majesty wants me to fight, then I will fight! I will remain until the end and fight with Your Majesty!” Kyle’s bow and shout resembled a knight swearing allegiance to his ruler.

He didn’t even bow to Empress Basara or Prince Dulandal, the man who hired him. The fact that he regarded the king of another country as his master caused a commotion.

‘Did King Grid secretly try to gain Kyle?’

‘Was the last pillar of the empire taken away by the Overgeared King?’

The officials awakened a sense of crisis and started to distrust Grid. He was even greedy for the talent of allies! It was an act that went against morality. He deserved to be condemned. From the standpoint of the empire that trusted Grid, they even felt a sense of betrayal.

Then Grid’s words reversed the unusual airflow.

“Sir Kyle, didn’t I say I’m not going to kill you? We were enemies at the time, but not anymore. Don’t worry about it and be at ease.”

Grid announced that he and Kyle had no relationship. He implied the reason Kyle was acting like this was because of fear. It was embarrassing for Kyle, but it couldn’t be helped. It was true that he was afraid of Grid. Even now, he remembered the pain of his arm being cut off every time he saw Grid and his bladder started to shake.

‘This monster...’

Kyle was raised in Juander’s hands. He grew up among the continent’s strongest powers and there were few people he cowered in front of. Furthermore, he sublimated his natural talent with hard work and got a divine gift from the martial god. This allowed him to rise to being a transcendent. It was practically impossible for him to fear ordinary humans.

The problem was that Grid wasn’t an ordinary human.

Kyle trained in the secret techniques of the martial god while watching Dulandal under Grid’s order (blackmail). His sixth sense was improved by his transcendence and he saw through Grid’s level accurately.

‘He already isn’t human.’

It was a state where he was aware of the flow of all things. it was the world of transcendence and Grid was surely in that realm. He was a true transcendent.

‘Such a guy cut off my arm...’

Throb!

Kyle was engulfed in vivid pain as he recalled the appearance of the white-haired Grid who cut off his arm. He gritted his teeth in order to not show it. That’s right—Kyle was convinced that Grid was ahead of him a few years ago. It was a misunderstanding that could never be eliminated. Kyle had no choice but to fear Grid for the rest of his life. Thus, he had to be polite.

“...Thank you for your forgiveness.”

This person who was like a fox—this abominable person didn’t know he was the culprit who forced Kyle to split himself between three masters. Kyle was twisted up due to Grid in many ways but he didn’t show it. In order to not let Grid see it, he had endured all the humiliation so far. He couldn’t show his feelings now.
