Overgeared

[It is good to see you in this state! Kuhat! Kuhahahat!]

The flames roared. They were synchronized with the emotions of the fire elemental king and expanded as the laughter of the fire elemental king intensified. The good news was that the water elemental king acted as a sprinkler, which avoided the situation of the surrounding bushes turning into ashes.

Grid stood between the mixed up fire and water and clearly grasped the propensity of the elemental kings.

‘They don’t have deceptive personalities that use empty words.’

In the last five days, Grid had carefully observed the elementals. They were rulers of a dimension. Even if he didn’t ask, they made alcohol out of water, a mat out of wind, and dining table and tableware out of earth. He had no choice but to be wary of those who showed him more favor than they needed to, even if it meant bending their pride. Enemies who hid their hostility under goodwill were simply dangerous.

However, he became certain at this moment. The elemental kings weren’t the type to hide their intentions. The attitude of the fire elemental king, who died of joy when it saw the light elemental king in Yura’s hands, proved it.

‘It really does hate the light elemental king.’

Now that he saw it, they were beings that were honest with their feelings. The favor directed toward him was also likely to be sincere. It should be noted that the call of the world tree wasn’t compulsory. The world tree said that the duration that the elemental kings remained on the surface depended on Grid’s qualifications. They could leave for the elemental world whenever they wanted to, but they didn’t leave. They stayed by Grid for the last five days. This meant that Grid had been approached with goodwill since he defeated the fire elemental king and proved his qualifications.

[I was wondering what you were doing. It turns out you were humiliating yourselves as a group?]

Flash!

The light elemental king shone brightly. A powerful light that made both eyes dazzled turned the area white. As Grid and the elves frowned for a moment, the light elemental king was already close to Grid. It had escaped from Yura’s grasp.

Grid alternated looking between the flustered Yura and the casual light elemental king. Then he placed his hand on the sheath of his sword. He was wary of the intentions of the light elemental king, who had been deliberately captured.

‘It is light. Is it possible to cut it?’

It would be much more difficult than slashing flames. The light elemental king spoke to Grid who was taking a deep breath.

[Overgeared God, I have been watching you.]

The light elemental king was different from the fire elemental king. It knew that Grid was a god.

‘Since it is contracted to Yura, has it been watching me from Yura’s point of view?’

Or had it been watching him from the perspective of Light Stone? Grid was becoming conscious of Light Stone when his expression became uneasy. It was because Light Stone was being absorbed by the light elemental king. Light Stone was gradually becoming cloudy. It seemed like it was about to disappear.

“......”

Light Stone felt Grid’s gaze and turned its head. The eyes and mouth made of light showed a contrast. The drawn half-moon face, which was probably made in a desire to communicate with Grid, resembled a smile.

“Light Stone...”

Grid urgently reached out, but he was too late.

[Why did you betray Mother? It is purely thanks to Mother’s favor that you have the present power.]

Light Stone completely scattered. It was decomposed into particle units and absorbed by the light elemental king.

[The advanced light elemental ‘Light Stone’ that is contracted with you is destroyed.]
