Overgeared

'Should I go hunting after a long time?'

For Haster, the past few days were more precious than gold. It was as precious as when he was serving in active duty. Didn't he grow every day without fail? It was all thanks to Grid and the God Hands. He still wasn't able to win against eight God Hands, but he wanted to go to an appropriate hunting ground to experience his increased strength.

However, he couldn't leave the castle because it was hard to come back. He wasn't an Overgeared member. He had to ask Lauel in order to enter the castle, but it was too shameless...

'Let's just stay still.'

It happened when Haster was sitting alone in a quiet garden and staring blankly at a fountain containing starlight fragments...

"Have you eaten?" a passing knight spoke to him. It was a knight called Royman who was fairly young. Nevertheless, her demeanor was restrained and her eyes were deep. He felt the years of experience. The strange situation of her dressed as a man was also noticeable. It was to hide her good looks.

"Yes..." He had filled himself with bread as he was being hit by the God Hands. There was no need to explain this.

Royman smiled at Haster and gave a small nod. "You can try out the restaurant as well. The food of the royal palace is amazing. However, avoid breakfasts on weekends."

They were words that meant a lot. The knight in front of him—the senior knight with red epaulettes—was treating Haster as a guest rather than someone uninvited. She would've followed instructions from the top. It meant that the Overgeared Kingdom had accepted Haster as a guest.

"Thank you for letting me know."

Haster had always been alone since losing his teacher. Yet unknowingly, he naturally became surrounded with people. The feelings he had forgotten for a long time made him feel warm and Haster couldn't help smiling. He hurriedly left his spot in an awkward manner and Royman stared at his back with surprise. Just then—

"......!"

Deep in the royal palace...

Two shockwaves were felt near Grid's smithy. It appeared suddenly without any warning. One belonged to King Grid and she didn't know who the other one belonged to. It was strange and terribly strong. It even reminded people of the invasion of heaven or hell.

"This!"

Royman rushed forward immediately toward the smithy. Dozens of knights and assassins emerged from all over the castle and followed her.

"W-Wait a minute! You shouldn't go...!"

Haster tried to stop them, but it was useless. There were only a few people in the Overgeared Guild who could control the knights and assassins.

"You have the Undefeated King's Swordsmanship. Don't distinguish between the Undefeated King's Swordsmanship and your swordsmanship. Apply it just as you use the sword dances and Shunpo together."

Just a little while ago, Grid had combined Shunpo with Transcended Linked Kill Wave Pinnacle. It was done in one go. It was completely different from the previous conventional method of using Shunpo first before linking a sword dance or linking sword dance to sword dance. The previous application belonged to the category of combos while the new application was closer to the sum of techniques.

'Can I use the sword dances and Undefeated King's Swordsmanship together?'

It might not mean a skill fusion system. The fusion of skills were hidden pieces that wouldn't occur unless it was special. If skill fusion was so easy, players would have hundreds of skills on average. It was a single skill with potent strength and the possibility of the Undefeated King's Swordsmanship combining with Grid's Sword Dance was very small. It was just like how the skill fusion system didn't occur when he used Shunpo and the sword dances together.

'I can naturally link the sword dances to the Undefeated King's Swordsmanship by adding additional moves in the process of doing the sword dances.'

Was it possible? Shunpo was classified as a 'movement skill.' The natural linkage of attack skills wasn't impossible in common sense. It was just that as the name suggested, the Undefeated King's Swordsmanship was swordsmanship. If the Undefeated King's Swordsmanship was used during the continuous movement of the sword dance, the existing movement of the sword dance was bound to be canceled. Then the activation of the sword dance would naturally be cancelled as well.
