Overgeared

“What is this...?”

The crowds gathered on the outer wall rubbed their eyes or checked the condition of their telescopes. However, the sight in front of them didn’t change.

The angels with halos above their heads—the heavenly army, sweeping through the battlefield with solemn expressions, all of them lost their weapons at the same time. They couldn’t believe what they saw. It was like a dream.

They were just spectators. The angels were caught up in the disaster that came without warning and were even more shocked. Then the angels quickly regained their composure. They were all in a Trinity. Thanks to the blessing of the God of Wisdom, they were even able to overcome the dimensional effects of the Overgeared World.

In the first place, it was a matter of life or death.

The angels knew it—the owner of this divinity, which was turning the clouds orange, had a track record of extinguishing even an archangel.

The only angel to maintain an expressionless face opened his mouth, “Take out your halos.”

With a single sentence, he commanded hundreds of angels and completed a number of spells that matched the number of angels in a split second. Then a loud glow exploded through the entire battlefield. It was the angel of the halos above the angels’ heads turning iridescent.

“This magic power...?” Braham, who had been in Grid’s arms, came to his senses.

He coughed up blood the moment he opened his mouth and Grid frowned. “Just be quiet. You talk a lot, really.”

“......”

The halos of the angels were moving rapidly. They aimed at Grid like they were guns and they each shot a beam of light. The power of the divinity-based beam of light was amplified by iridescent magic power. If hit by the hundreds of beams, even an Absolute being like a dragon or Grid would be seriously injured.

‘Mumud.’

The angel in the form of a slender man—Grid had a complicated expression as he identified the angel who was leading the angel army with mysterious magic. Of course, there was no hesitation in his actions. He avoided all the beams using Shunpo and fell into the middle of the battlefield. The problem was that Mumud clearly predicted his actions.

A huge magic circle activated the moment Grid stepped on the ground. Originally, it was a magic trap that would’ve caused a terrible explosion and hurt Grid quite badly. However, there was Braham in Grid’s arms. He had restored some of his mana core and gathered some magic power on the way here. This allowed him to intervene in the magic circle in real-time.

“...Amazing.”

Mumud was amazed when the multi-explosion magic that should’ve engulfed Grid turned into multi-shield magic that protected Grid. Grid was so angry that his temples twitched.

“Can’t you please stay still?”

Twilight and Defying the Natural Order, held in both of Grid’s hands, were moving without hesitation. Every time his left and right hands made a horizontal movement, the heads of six or seven angels fell off and blood spurted out in an explosive manner.

However, there was formidable resistance from the angels. They lost their weapons but they fired sharp feathers like they were swords, while emitting rays from the halos still aiming at Grid. It was like launching a wide-area attack with great lethal power.

Grid had thought about it—if the entire Overgeared Guild and the angel army faced off, thousands of ordinary members, except for the elites of the guild, would suffer devastating damage.

‘What type of bastard angels specialize in killing people?’

They weren’t angels, they were assassins. They were like those born to kill people.

‘I’m not much different...’ Grid thought when seeing the reflection of himself in the wavering eyes of the angels. ‘...Am I like these guys?’

Suddenly, he felt his irritation surging. The speed at which Grid moved among the angels gradually accelerated. He didn’t get hurt at all in the process. It was thanks to the shields that Braham converted from Mumud’s magic and covered Grid with. A rainbow, shimmering shield surrounded Grid in layers.

The power of the mana shield, which was activated based on Mumud’s magic power, was very outstanding. Of course, it wasn’t invincible. Every time it was attacked by angels, the shield’s durability weakened. It came off layer by layer. It was completely gone by the time nearly half the angels had died.
