Overgeared

“From now on, you must answer all my questions honestly.”

Don’t lie.

“You must not refuse no matter what I ask of you. You can never be hostile to me.”

Obey unconditionally.

Every time Grid voiced his requests, the contract became more binding. The piece of paper that had penetrated their hearts turned into a solid chain that connected them.

As soon as he confirmed that the contract was working as intended, Grid didn’t hesitate to ask, “What did you demon cultivators do in Asgard?”

He had a hunch that the demon cultivators had been to Asgard. He didn’t trust the deer man, who reacted as if he didn’t even know what Asgard was.

Grid’s hunch was correct.

“Asgard... somewhat resembles our ancestral realm that is in the upper world. It’s like the upper world of our hometown. Having studied the civilizations and myths of this world, we determined that Asgard must be a special place.”

The demon cultivators were no different from human cultivators. As soon as he sensed he was in danger, the deer man became humble and polite. He’d folded his hands in front of him and bowed down. He couldn’t even make eye contact with Grid.

“Asgard is a place where those who claim to be gods gather. We hoped that we might be able to find a way to return home if we went there. But when we actually went to Asgard and met the gods, we were greatly disappointed. They weren’t nearly as powerful as we expected them to be.”

It was disappointing. The Refractive Dragon was chasing Rebecca, the supreme god. Meanwhile, Grid had killed Judar, who used to be her second-in-command. Dominion, who was in charge of Asgard now, was rumored to be training behind closed doors. This made sense, given that he hadn’t bothered to show up when Judar was in trouble or when he died.

‘Even if the Gods of the beginning had been there, they wouldn’t have obtained the results they wanted.’

No one born in this world could open the door to a higher dimension. Not even Rebecca could do that, and she was a God of the beginning.

This was because this world was just a game. As characters in the game, they weren’t qualified to move to a higher dimension. This was easy to comprehend when thinking about Judar.

The dimension that Judar had created... Judar himself believed it to be a different world, but it was actually just a data file for a scheduled update.

“So, you didn’t get the results you wanted?”

“That’s not it. There was a very wise angel. After talking to him, we came to the conclusion that we can make a replica of the Full Moon Fortress.”

“A wise angel...? Are you talking about Mumud?”

“That’s right. He must be famous.”

“Why do you want to make a replica of the Full Moon Fortress? Why don’t you just make one yourself?”

“Our demon cultivators can’t afford constructing a fortress from scratch because it requires a lot of manpower and costs too much money. As I said in the beginning, only a small number of demon cultivators came to this world...”

“Asgard has agreed to help you build the Full Moon Fortress?”

“Yes.”

“Um...”

Grid frowned. According to the deer man, something similar to the Full Moon Fortress was being constructed in Asgard. He now had to deal with that too, and he evidently didn’t like that.
