Overgeared

“Your attack was a throw. Contrary to your ambitious words, your attitude is flawed.”

The words spoke the conclusion—

Grid’s rain of battle gear had no effect. The tens of thousands of weapons rained down like torrential rain, but they couldn’t even touch even the tip of Chiyou’s hair. In a way, it was natural. Defying the Natural Order was wielded by Zeratul, who was briefly freed from the constraints of the Overgeared World.Even this sword, which shot faster than a beam of light, couldn’t cut Chiyou properly.

It was unreasonable to expect that the ranged wide area skill, which was slower than Grid’s sword that was directly wielded, would hurt Chiyou. No, he honestly was expecting it. The strength of the rain of battle gear lay in the fact that it was a wide area skill. It was somewhat slow, but it pressured the opponent with range. It induced limitations in evasion and blocking.

However, Chiyou swung his sword once, as gracefully as if painting with a brush, and made all the attack trajectories of the battle gear miss.

‘It isn’t a matter of slow or fast.’

Nor was it the domain of technique.

‘Power.’

But what power was it? Was he simply immune to projectiles? The problem with that interpretation was that he responded by swinging his sword.

The battle gear that filled Grid’s field of view for a moment—they returned to their respective masters without achieving their purpose and Chiyou’s sword stuck out through the gap. It was very natural, as if it was one of the weapons made by Grid. It was fair to say that it permeated the landscape.

“......?”

Thus, there was a momentary gap before Grid recognized the attack. The warning sent by his artificial senses was overshadowed and he failed to respond for a moment.

Claaaang!

Then he felt rewarded again for raiding Baal. It was because the Demon Sword Remnants blocked Chiyou’s sword on Grid’s behalf. Yes, it was definitely blocked.

[You have suffered 5,129,100 damage.]

[’Doran’s Ring’ has immediately restored half of the lost health.]

“......?”

Fresh blood gushed from Grid’s chest. It was the aftermath of being slashed by Chiyou’s sword that passed through Demon Sword Remnants. The pain that had previously only been felt at the moment of death unexpectedly struck and made Grid’s mind flash. He hesitated while trying to return the damage he had suffered.

“You deserve it, I know.”

‘It passed through the demon sword like an illusion.’

“But that alone won’t convince the world. You need to cut my throat with your own sword to disqualify me.”

‘Don’t tell me.’

Grid realized it. Chiyou’s power was probably to induce a ‘pure confrontation.’ Chiyou neutralized other people’s skills and magic without touching it, he simply broke through the pouring rain of battle gear and turned the Demon Sword Remnants useless. It was because Chiyou’s power didn’t recognize such situations as ‘fights.’

“Of course, the idea of using that was good.”

Chiyou’s eyes fell on Zeratul in the distance. Zeratul’s appearance was disastrous. His right arm was severed and he was biting Defying the Natural Order with his mouth like a beast. He crawled for around five meters before managing to raise himself up. He was covered with blood.

After being restricted by the Overgeared World again, he was completely overwhelmed by Chiyou. However, he wasn’t shabby. Zeratul fought as best as he could and caused a small amount of injuries on Chiyou’s body. This was the reason why Chiyou’s ink-colored dopo, which stretched long like a spider, was torn and ripped everywhere.

“The Martial God made by Rebecca. When I saw you charging at me, I judged you to be a worthless defective product, but reality is different. However, it isn’t enough. He isn’t worthy of being your agent.”

“......”

Zeratul was approaching. Due to the constraints of the Overgeared World, the regeneration of his severed arm was slow and his shattered knee was still rattling, but he tried not to waste time. Maybe he knew it from the beginning. The only way to fight Chiyou was to bump into him directly. It was an expression of trying to settle things somehow before Defying the Natural Order was taken away by Grid.
