Overgeared

“I actually feel refreshed after feeling angry...?”

Youngwoo seemed to have nightmares the whole time he slept. But a dream was just a dream. The anger and inferiority he had felt in his dream motivated him.

‘...Agnus.’

Agnus was a necromancer. Was there any other class that would be as overpowered as a necromancer in real life? Honestly, Youngwoo was really jealous.

‘But I am overgeared.’

Even if the world changed, it was enough for Youngwoo to make good armor and equip himself with it, just like a blacksmith. This way, it would hurt less if he got hit.

‘...There is no way I can use just any weapon.’

Youngwoo was relieved and called Secretary Jang.

Secretary Jang was Yura’s closest confidant. He was a nice individual who helped Youngwoo in various ways.

-Hello, Youngwoo-nim.What do you need me to do?

As expected, Secretary Jang was quick. He always answered the call before the second ring.

“Do smithies still exist in the world nowadays?”

Various agricultural tools and daily necessities such as scissors, kitchen knives, and so on… Most things made of metal had long become industrial products. Youngwoo wasn’t sure if such objects made by hand still existed nowadays.

Secretary Jang’s reply was an unexpected one.

-Of course.They have become more common in recent years.

After watching Youngwoo in the game, many people dreamed of becoming a blacksmith. This used to be a trend at some point. The smithies which used to be run by a very small number of craftsmen became popular and were treated as a special social phenomenon.

A social phenomenon created by only one player’s influence... Of course, the media covered this extensively. However, Youngwoo himself didn’t know this. There was a lot of news about him, so it was difficult for him to keep up with everything. This was understandable because, at some point, there used to be absurd articles with headlines like, ‘Grid is a known canned tuna fanatic. Will he eat canned tuna for breakfast?’

“...Really? Um, well, I would like to visit a well-equipped smithy.”

-Sure. I will make a list and pass it on to you.

Secretary Jang had more than one or two good qualities. What Youngwoo particularly liked most about the secretary was that he never complained about anything.

After the call ended, Youngwoo changed his mind about accessing Satisfy. He wasn’t feeling that great.
