Overgeared

Chapter 1759

There was nothing difficult about conceiving the image of a god. Goddess Rebecca resembled a human being. Therefore, when humanity first witnessed the heavenly gods, they didn’t panic and accepted their appearance.

The only exception was Yatan.

The Evil God who created hell—humans imagined that Yatan’s appearance would be close to that of a monster. In fact, the image of Yatan in the murals recording the myths was depicted as bizarre and ominous, just like demons. However, the appearance of Yatan that the siblings saw in person was far from a monster.

Like other gods, he was infinitely close to a human being. He was even a man with a heroic appearance. He was a handsome man with a cool smile that matched him very well.

‘This is... Yatan?’

Grid who had fallen to a certain point in the past. He was inwardly surprised as he stood facing Yatan. He had also suffered from prejudice. He didn’t think Yatan was a monster, but he thought Yatan would look similar to the demon lords in the Demon King’s Subjugation event. This was even though he knew that Yatan might actually be good. Just as human beings were created based on Rebecca, he thought the demons were created based on Yatan.

‘His appearance is fine, so why did he make the demons look that way?’

Wasn’t the reason why the demons became crooked due to their inferiority complex about their appearance?

Grid’s speculation was serious. It was because he also experienced a time when his self-esteem was low due to his appearance.

“......”

They were on top of a green hill. It overlooked a small village surrounded by crude wooden walls. The houses huddled together were plain and shabby. Perhaps it was the houses made of a mixture of cow dung and straw that evoked the faint scent of the countryside.

‘How long in the past is this?’

Grid was composed even in the midst of a very sudden situation. He thoroughly inspected everything around him while being wary of Yatan. It was to be prepared for possible dangers.

Yatan stared at him with dark eyes colored with interest. The first one to speak was the young Specter.

“Who are you?”

It was a clear voice. It was different from the Specter that the siblings knew. The young Specter, who stood alongside Yatan, wasn’t sickly at all. It was nice to see the small face without the slightest shadow on it.

‘It is obviously the past before hell was distorted. In the first place, here... is it hell?’

The neutral areas of hell—the areas inhabited by the demonkin, not demons, had a landscape that wasn’t much different from the surface. A considerable number of demonkin tribes built towns between clear skies and green meadows, living by their own laws and morals. Maybe the hell of the past was exactly the same as the surface.

“The two of you are unusual... are you dragons using Polymorph?”

The young Specter gradually started to become wary of Grid and Ruby. It was because Grid’s armor and Ruby’s clothing couldn’t be made with the technology of this era.

Grid’s armor was made from dragon scales. He didn’t look like a male human.

“There is no need to be vigilant. One is like me,” Yatan calmed the Specter, who was gradually panicking.

“Huh?”

“A god.”

Yatan smiled as he looked between the Specter and Grid.

“Did a relationship connected to the future lead you here...? Eve must’ve liked you very much.”

“Me?”

The young Specter, Eve, had wide eyes. She looked at Grid in a bewildered manner.

I have good favorability toward him in the future and led him here?

The overall atmosphere is quite nice, but it is a bit far from my taste...

Finally, Eve’s cheeks puffed out. If it wasn’t for the words of the gods she served, she would’ve screamed, “Don’t talk nonsense!”

Grid felt bitter. After seeing the Specter of the past, the Specter of the present was even more pitiful. Such an ordinary girl spent thousands of years alone and lost her emotions, turning into a monster who only wanted revenge...

It was really pitiful.
