Overgeared

“How very comfortable.”

This was the impression that Dragon Slayer Hayate got as he was looking with warm eyes at Sariel, Zik, Yura, Jishuka, Haster, Zibal, Huroi, Eat Spicy Jokbal, Damian, and Ruby.

They were powerful enough to deal with Transcendents. However, from Hayate’s perspective, they specialized in supporting others. Hayate didn’t pay attention to their individual skills. But he enjoyed teaming up with them.

During important battles, they weakened their enemies and supported their allies. With them, he felt safer and more comfortable than ever before. Because of their help, he stayed focused throughout the battle. His Dragon-Killing Sword cut the throats of a hundred cultivators in the fight.

Lauel smiled.

“The most important thing in combat is synergy. Synergy is a huge advantage in battle. I’m happy to hear that you were comfortable.”

Unless they were talking about an unrivaled being like Grid, the most important aspect of forming a party was the combination of everyone’s skills, rather than individual skill. Therefore, it was Lauel who did the most during this battle. He was the one who had formed the teams.

“I can see why Sir Grid always trusts you and leaves important tasks to you.”

Hayate no longer paid attention to his surroundings. He used an honorific for Grid to his heart’s content. Even though Grid wanted Hayate to live as comfortably as possible, Hayate couldn’t afford not to talk respectfully about Grid. Even Rebecca, the strongest God of the beginning, believed in Grid. Even a Dragon Slayer wasn’t his equal.

The old man with the white beard couldn’t withstand the pincer attack performed by Kraugel and Braham. He screamed.

“Ackk...!!”

Hayate saw the dwarf emerging from the old man’s corpse. Cranbel fired his breath and killed the cultivator when he tried to escape. Hayate unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his chest. He had been born into aristocracy and had always been an example to others, and this was the first time he had ever looked so disheveled.

After witnessing Rebecca revering Grid, who had been reborn as another light, as well as the Overgeared World, where anyone could become the main character of the story, Hayate allowed himself to relax for a bit.

Biban sat down next to him. He was trembling nervously.

“If we get rid of all these bastards who call themselves cultivators or whatever, we can start planning our retirement.”

He had been with Hayate for many years, and he knew what Hayate was thinking.

Hayate shrugged as he gave a thumbs-up to Cranbel, who was flying high in the sky.

“I will retire after I defeat the Refractive Dragon.”
