Overgeared

n.
He wanted to help Kasim, whose clan had been annihilated by the empire…

“…Ah.” Grid came to his senses.
He realized that there were few people around him who hadn’t been unhappy and he couldn’t undo their past.
Everything would become twisted the moment he changed one thing.

For example, Kasim’s success in defending his clan meant he was able to fend off the invasion of the empire.
At the same time, it meant that Piaro and the Red Knights, who had always been the vanguard of the empire, would suffer a defeat.

By altering Braham’s past, Braham could play a role that was completely antagonistic to Grid since he didn’t experience a human life.

‘In the first place, it is all over.’

They overcame the pain and got back on their feet.
It was wrong for him to bring up their past.
Additionally, not everything would be possible, even if this core granted his wishes.
No matter whether he was an Absolute, the emperor, or the Guardian of the Balance, there were clear limits to a player’s authority.
Grid had experienced it several times.

‘…Apart from all of that, it is only available for one use.’

Since it could only be used once, could it really grant any wish?

Grid suddenly had this thought and decided to stop paying attention to it.
He thought there must be a separate use for this.
It was close to conviction.
It was based on the experience he had accumulated so far.

“……”

Then there were traces of magic power behind him.
He could tell who it was without looking in person.
Since the distance from the place where he felt the presence couldn’t be measured, it meant the space was distorted.

A warp gate had been opened.

[You have suffered, Only One God Grid.]

It was a memorable voice.

The 2nd Great Demon, Amoract—Grid thought it was just right.

‘All in on agility.’

He didn’t have to type any commands.
The system immediately read Grid’s will and responded.

He stabbed his sword without hesitation at Amoract, who was constantly talking.

The Great Demon of Conflict—she was an unreliable existence from the beginning.
He was going to kill her no matter what sweet proposals she made or what cooperation she offered.
It was better to cut off the roots in advance.

‘All in on strength.’

Grid’s will became more concise and intuitive.
His stats literally changed in real time and Amoract couldn’t react at all.

[The 2nd Great Demon, ‘Amoract,’ has died.]

[Your level has risen by 17.]

‘…Stop rising up.’

This damn thing.
He had been telling people around him that the limit for players would be level 999, but he reached level 1,000.
Then it kept going up? It was a bit embarrassing…

At this point, maybe Morpheus was deliberately modifying the system to be the opposite of his predictions? Grid still didn’t trust the S.A Group, who were suspicious, and distributed his stat points back to agility.

It was for high speed travel.
The red flesh that Yura and Mir were currently containing was the target.
There was no time for him to look at the loot.
He couldn’t wait for Pagma’s soul, which hadn’t appeared yet.

‘There were so many souls that Baal had absorbed.’

Gray pillars rose from Baal’s corpse and embroidered the sky like stars.
There were endless limits.
He had to free Pagma’s soul in order to complete the class quest, but it seemed delayed since there were so many souls to be freed first.

‘It doesn’t mean much to finish my class quest now, but…’

For the current Grid, Pagma ’s Successor was just one of his origins.
Even so, Grid wanted to obtain the rewards.
It was important to finish everything.

Grid was about to use Shunpo, only to stop.
It was because he detected the movement of new magic power in the sky.
It was quite a powerful magic power.

‘Asura?’

The vigilant Grid paused.
Then the identity of the figure who popped out of the fully open warp gate was soon revealed.

It was Katz.
Nevertheless, he didn’t let down his guard.
It was due to the girl that came right after Katz.
To be precise, it was the soul in the form of a girl.

Beriache—she was one of the Three Evils of the Beginning, like Baal and Amoract, and she was the mother of the direct descendants, including Braham and Marie Rose.
The moment she appeared, all the blood that had seeped into the ground started floating into the air.
It felt like tens of thousands of red jewels were adorning the landscape.

It was beautiful.

“……!”

Grid’s eyes examined the situation for a moment before they widened.
It was because the moment the blood that floated into the air and formed small droplets started to seep into Beriache, the presence of the dead Baal and Amoract were felt.
He felt it from Beriache.
It was a frightening phenomenon.

‘The power of 10,000 beings…!’

There were many types of strong existences.
Among them, there was a type that became uncontrollably strong when ‘certain conditions were met’ and Beriache was that type.
The ability to take the power of targets whose blood was sucked as her own.
It was known that Baal even asked Amoract for cooperation because he couldn’t do anything alone against Beriache, who had accumulated power.

Yes, Grid was familiar with it.
But seeing it in person was a completely different feeling.

Embracing the power of Baal and Amoract, who were already dead…

It was also only through the blood they shed as they died.

“”You don’t have to be vigilant.
I don’t plan to go against you.””

It was a manner of speaking that didn’t match her outward appearance.

“Then why did you accumulate so much power?” Grid directly asked Beriache, who was more like Marie Rose’s daughter than her mother.

“”It is always good to have power.
I have already experienced one failed life, so I think it is natural for me to always have a vigilant mindset.
Rather…””

Beriache’s gaze shifted to Grid’s lower half.
It was his groin area, to be precise.
Beriache stared at Grid, who naturally closed his legs, before smiling.

“”I had wondered why you smelled like me.
It is no wonder…
your tastes are unique.
I can see why Marie Rose hasn’t been able to conceive.””

There were small explosions everywhere.
It was the sound of the God Hands destroying the cameras of the broadcasting stations.
