Overgeared

Unless they were a half-god born on the surface or an Evil God that wandered without any affiliations, all the gods in heaven were aware of Chiyou’s disposition. It was easy to guess why Chiyou was obsessed with Grid.

Therefore, King Sobyeol held on. He believed that Chiyou would surely enter the battlefield.

However, he hadn’t expected this to happen. Wanting to sacrifice him to Grid?

[It isn’t too late now...! Take back your attitude and help me!] King Sobyeol exclaimed desperately.

Chiyou was still holding him by the back of the neck. He had no choice but to struggle until his body hurt. He noticed that Chiyou’s obsession with Grid was far beyond his predictions.

[No matter how much you... no, it is because it is you that you shouldn’t break your oath. How are you going to pay the price for this betrayal?]

Just as Dragon Words was strengthened by an accumulation of ‘fulfilling the covenant,’ the concepts of oaths and promises also played a very important role for a god. In the worst case scenario, violating the oath would make them lose their ‘right to live in heaven.’

It didn’t just mean being weaker. There was a fear of losing their reason and becoming an Evil God. The honor that they had built up... no, they would lose their whole life. This was the reason why King Sobyeol used an ‘indirect method’ when dealing with King Daebyeol.

[Are you going to be blinded by absurd greed and follow in Pluto’s footsteps? Chiyou, wasn’t it you who sympathized with Pluto more than anyone else?]

“That is misleading.” Chiyou, who had been silently waiting for Grid’s answer, responded to King Sobyeol for the first time. “Our contract has lost its value, so the oath I have to keep has simply disappeared.”

In other words, it wasn’t a betrayal. Chiyou drove in the nail and King Sobyeol couldn’t recklessly refuse it. The reason why Hanul was able to appease Chiyou was due to the promise that Hanul would make a God Killer.

The yangbans created by Hanul and nurtured by Chiyou—among them, Mir was especially outstanding and he served as a small hope for Chiyou. However, before he could prove his worth, he was taken away by Grid. Since then, the yangbans also started to leave the Hwan Kingdom one by one.

Chiyou was right. The Hwan Kingdom couldn’t afford to keep their promise to Chiyou...

[...Grid! I still have a firm desire to cooperate with you!] King Sobyeol made a very quick judgment. The moment he realized that he couldn’t change Chiyou’s mind, he tried to persuade Grid. [Don’t be misled by Chiyou! He will persistently cling to you until the day he is destroyed!!]

It was right. Chiyou had high hopes for Grid. He would follow Grid relentlessly until the day that Grid killed him.

Grid thought, ‘It is safe to say that no matter how much time passed, the odds of me defeating Chiyou are zero.’

This wasn’t an existence he could fight against and win. A disaster that would follow him forever... it was right to accept Chiyou as this.

“Not bad.” Unlike Grid, who didn’t feel particularly motivated, Chiyou’s reaction was positive. He gently let go of King Sobyeol’s neck and took out a weapon that looked like a long steel bar.

“Come at me together,” Chiyou declared.

‘This bastard.’ Now Grid had no respect for Chiyou at all. At this moment, he abandoned the lingering admiration and all the blinders were peeled off.

This guy was just a psychopath.

‘He has too much discernment just to call him crazy.’

Chiyou saw through it in a brief moment. He thought that Grid would be much stronger cooperating with King Sobyeol, rather than Grid killing King Sobyeol and gaining ‘status.’ This meant Chiyou accurately measured King Sobyeol’s current level.

‘This guy... he is pretty strong.’

Grid sighed and directly asked King Sobyeol, who came to his side, “How much longer can you stay in this state?”

Currently, King Sobyeol used his own power to embody the divinity of King Daebyeol and Bunhelier’s magic power. He was twice as powerful. It was impossible for it to be permanent, so it should be interpreted as a type of buff state.
