Overgeared

[The +8 Songstress’ Sword is shining brilliantly.]

[You have succeeded in the enhancement and acquired the +9 Songstress’ Sword.]

“...It came out!!!” Cage cheered when he opened his eyes and confirmed the result. The gamble where he bet all his assets succeeded. The difficult moments passed like a lantern and tears flowed.

‘I would’ve quit the game if this failed... There is no law against anyone dying.’

Cage was a person with no luck. No matter how hard he tried and challenged things, the result was always the worst. He suffered a setback every time. This time was the same as well. He participated in a raid as the main damage dealer and after all the hardships he suffered, he rolled the number ‘1’ on the dice. The boss dropped the item he wanted but he lost the right to bid on the item itself. He was too angry to dismiss it as bad luck as usual. It was bad luck if it happened once or twice. So why was it only him every time?

Cage was unable to restrain his anger and lost his mind. He used all the gold he had saved by living with cheap potions and bought a large number of enhancement stones from the exchange. He looked forward to seeing the market value rise some day and started to enhance all the rare rated items he collected in his warehouse. The result was terrible. His enhancement stones just flew away. It was a perfect development for him to lose his sense of reason.

He really did lose his sense of reason. By the time he came to his senses, he had damaged all the equipment he had been using. None of the items’ enhancement levels were left and they had dropped to their base values. The only thing that was fine was his weapon. It was a unique rated weapon purchased using a loan.

He screamed. +8 came out. The price of the item increased by four times due to one enhancement level. Did he want to stop? After thinking about it and hesitating dozens of times, he finally came to the conclusion that he couldn’t stop here. It was too insufficient to recover the damage. Then he screamed again.

+9 came out. The price of the item had increased by eight times. He had been playing Satisfy for five years and this was the first time he was really making money. It was a large amount of money, not a small one.

“Haha!Hahahahat!”

He would finally walk on the flower road! Cage was shedding tears of joy when a notification window rose in front of him.

[Time has regressed.]

“......?” Cage’s laughter abruptly stopped. The shining +9 Songstress’ Sword started to lose its light. Cage rubbed his eyes. The Songstress’ Sword was returning to +7.

“W-What is this shit aaaaaaack!!”

Screams occurred from all over the city. There were dozens of people in this small city who had similar experiences to Cage.

"...We are asking for an explanation and compensation.” The haggard-faced man read the last sentence of the statement. In front of hundreds of reporters, he dared to declare that he would sue the S.A Group and he felt his legs trembling. He was so nervous and afraid that his head was spinning and he felt nauseous. However, he was elected as the representative of the ‘Backtracking Victims Group’. He couldn’t back down. Determination filled his heart and he gazed at hundreds of cameras with a firm expression.

In response to his courage, the S.A Group immediately announced its position. In summary: this was a phenomenon that occurred during the normal game process.There was no compensation.
