Overgeared

The dimensional gap—it was famous for being the place where Sword Saint Muller hid for many years. Many of them appeared in the world when Fire Dragon Trauka changed the ecosystem, so Grid was familiar with it.

No, the word ‘familiar’ was wrong. A dimensional gap wasn’t referring to a single place. Just as the stars in the universe were different, so were the gaps in dimensions.

“It is strange in many ways... Squeak,” Bunhelier muttered while entering the dimensional gap opened by the Blue Dragon.

A land that even Old Dragons were unfamiliar with—the dimensional gap was such a place.

“Is this the place where you were trapped? Did you accidentally find traces of light here?”

A space where light was scattered—it was so bright that it was hard to guess the scale. The reflected light added endless colors, making their eyes sore and their minds confused.

Grid speculated that this was the place where the Blue Dragon was sealed.

‘It is said that the Blue Dragon was sealed within the Blue Dragon Dao, but that doesn’t make sense.’

With its resurrection, the Blue Dragon had regained its ‘body.’ This meant that in addition to the soul, the body was also sealed in the Blue Dragon Dao. It was physically impossible. How could such a large body fit into a sword?

‘Of course, the Blue Dragon’s body is made up of divinity and lightning.’

The case of the other Four Auspicious Beasts must be taken into account. The Black Tortoise and the White Tiger had physical bodies made of matter. Nonetheless, they were sealed in a jewel and a spear. They only regained their whole body once they were resurrected.

Therefore, Grid speculated that the place where the Four Auspicious Beasts stayed when they were sealed was a dimensional gap.

-I was sealed in the Blue Dragon Dao...? Didn’t you know?

“How can such a big body be put into a single dao?”

-It is because the magic of the seal performed a miracle. What type of test are you giving me right now...? Ah, I understand. The light here is so bright that it is almost disorienting. You are worried about my condition.

“...That is all I need to know.” Grid was embarrassed that he made a useless guess and got it wrong.

Bunhelier looked suspiciously at the awkward Grid. “Your assumption that I’m mixed race can also be wrong. Squeak.”

“Everybody makes mistakes, but my mistakes aren’t frequent.”

Every time Grid surpassed a strong enemy, he became aware of his position. He had repeatedly vowed to be cautious. He had listened to Lauel’s advice for a long time and witnessed the wisdom of Braham and Sticks many times.

Grid prided himself on now being close to a sage. Based on the knowledge and information accumulated over the years, he was now in the process of expanding his wisdom like a great ocean.

“That confidence... it is sincere.”

Bunhelier saw Grid’s serious expression and no longer spoke.

-This is the place I have been aiming for since the first day I met Hanul. To borrow the words of magicians, it is a place where I never forgot the ‘coordinates.’ I memorized them.

The Blue Dragon recalled the memory of that day.

-As I said many times, Hanul isn’t in perfect condition. Not only did he lose a significant amount of status because of his defeat, but he also suffered considerable internal injuries. Nevertheless, he was nonchalant when dealing with us, the Four Auspicious Beasts.

The Blue Dragon’s fierce eyes became even sharper.

-I couldn’t see a hint of tension when he declared that he would take our land and myths as his own. He was arrogant and leisurely. He subdued the Red Phoenix, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise. His attitude didn’t change even when he got to me.
