Overgeared

Hayate lived for others. It was a devotion that no one knew. It was the dragons' words that were full of contempt and hatred that remembered and bound him. People had forgotten him a very long time ago. He was a lonely existence.

Grid was angry for him on his behalf. Hayate and the tower members isolated themselves from the world. It was with the goal of killing the dragons, who took humanity hostage. This was a story unknown to the world.

It was an action done by Hayate. He was previously concerned that Grid would provoke the anger of the dragons, turning his epic into a secret story. Yet now—

"......!"

Grid himself pulled out the secret story. It was the aftermath of the decision to fight the dragons in the process of communicating with Gujel's ego. It was a natural phenomenon. Grid wanted to establish a real relationship with Gujel. Thus, he just expressed his honest feelings and willpower. He didn't mean for it to be written as an epic.

The fact that Grid overlooked was the specificity of the existence of dragons. Dragons weren't involved in the birth and maintenance of the world. Therefore, they weren't objects of faith. Even so, they were qualified to lead the world to destruction.

It was simply because they were strong. It wasn't just the ultimate power that was inherent to them. They also created the concept of magic. They were a transcendent species free from divine power and could put the world under their feet. His resolution to fight them without avoiding them when the time came was accepted as a historic event.

"Hayate!"

Actions preceded accidents. Grid compressed time and space and jumped, desperately reaching out to Hayate. He had to respond. Hayate was gambling without any chance of winning. It was right to call it a sacrifice. It was in order to protect Grid. Grid had the right and the obligation to stop him.

"Stop!" Grid shouted, but he was one step too late. Before he knew it, Hayate's presence covered the entire world.

At this moment, Grid's story was put on the back burner for the dragons. They weren't treating him as insignificant. Grid was qualified to be hostile to the dragons. Without qualifications, there wouldn't have been an epic in the first place. This world acknowledged Grid.

It was just that Hayate was more special for the dragons. The only dragon slayer in history—from a certain point, he became the goal and purpose of the dragons. For the dragons, Hayate's presence was much greater and heavier than Grid's resolution.

Most of the dragons that existed in the world now felt Hayate. They regarded all concepts except Hayate as meaningless and had many feelings.

The heavenly gods also noticed the unexpected event.

"That hateful human has finally ushered in the day of death." Zeratul burst out laughing as he was restoring his damaged condition.

Zeratul was pleasantly surprised. He was surprised because it was a level of joy comparable to when he imagined killing Chiyou. 'Was I this conscious about Hayate?'

No, it couldn't be. He just thought Hayate was a hateful bastard. He was the one who damaged Zeratul's status...

Zeratul was frowning when an unpleasant voice entered his ears, "You are ugly."

"......"

Zeratul looked at the being who dared to criticize a god and it was even in the presence of the god. A short stature and a young face—the flush that remained on both cheeks that still had baby fat showed an abominable purity.
