Overgeared

A new feature was added to the Rune of Gluttony. It could be used to enhance the mental world. There was a premise that the powers imprinted on the rune would be used as a resource, but it wasn't a big penalty. The power in the rune didn't necessarily show off outstanding prestige. The power gained in the early days or by killing the lower ranked great demons were less valuable.

Grid thought this new function was good because the fuller the rune's capacity, the less likely it was to absorb a power.

It was just shortly after killing Michael. One of the reasons why Grid was in a good mood after the successful Michael raid was the new feature of the rune. However—

'Is this right?' Grid gradually had doubts. He hesitated without trying to strengthen his mental world. His experience with Braham and Hayate's mental world had alarmed him. Braham's mental world accumulated knowledge, while Hayate's mental world released infinite sword energy...

Their mental worlds contained their essence. Grid's essence was a blacksmith. Of course, 'Greed' was also a characteristic that represented Grid. It wasn't strange that the Rune of Gluttony, that grew from absorbing the power of others, would become the material for Grid's mental world.

'If I have to prioritize it, I would prefer blacksmithing over the rune.'

He grew because he was a blacksmith, allowing him to get the rune. The origin of Grid's ability to fulfill his greed was his blacksmithing ability.

'This... the more I think about it, the more it is like a landmine.'

He had an ominous feeling that his origin would be weakened as soon as he strengthened his mental world with the rune. Of course, this was just a conjecture. It was only a guess based on 'intuition.' It was highly likely that it wasn't a trap. Nevertheless, Grid found it hard to shake off his doubts.

'Look back on my recent life.'

Everything was resolved smoothly. His hard work was rewarded with too much luck. He was literally lucky. He even forgot about the concept of misfortune for a moment.

Was this the life of a man called Grid? No, absolutely not. In Grid's life, luck and bad luck always coexisted. Based on his current results, the total amount of good luck was higher, but after the initial luck, his luck became worse than anyone else. It wouldn't be strange if his recent good luck caused a rebound.

'Most of the misfortunes happened when I was careless.'

Grid wasn't overly confident in himself. He had long been aware that he wasn't smart. He had the experience of his nose being flattened due to being careless and rushing. Therefore—

'Using the rune to artificially enhance my mental world... I'll put it off until I have confidence.' Grid made a choice. He resisted the temptation that was too sweet. 'My mental world right now is pretty strong anyway.'

He had experienced how powerful it was to enhance an item through the Michael raid. Of course, it couldn't stand a chance when meeting enemies who were overwhelmingly strong without items or who could easily neutralize an incomplete mental world, so he hoped for the mental world to be strengthened. The mental world was a very important concept. It wasn't a matter to be hastily decided. Moreover, Grid had fought and won against strong enemies without a clear mental world. It was funny to suddenly be impatient now.

Grid turned a blind eye to the eye-catching flashing visual effect of the new mental world enhancement function and confirmed Michael's Power.
