Chapter 1089

The name of the new mineral is...

Of course, it had to be Overgeared Stone.

...I dont think so.

Then Overgearanium?

Bullshit.

The growth couldnt be limited to one thing. If side A developed, the synergy effect of side B developing together was human growth. Grid realized that his naming sense was lousy thanks to his improved intellectual ability, and he hesitated.

Both are too bad.

Now he understood Lauels reaction when he named the Overgeared Guild and Overgeared Kingdom. Lauel had adapted, but he surely wouldnt have fallen asleep too easily when he first heard the names Overgeared Guild and Overgeared Kingdom. Of course, the feeling might be a bit different if Grid were watched from a third partys perspective.

Grid scratched his cheeks and his chin. Every item he created couldnt be called Overgeared something. It was too monotonous and not fun. He had even tried to name the White Tiger Sword as the Stone Sword. No, did he try to name the Stone Sword as the White Tiger Sword...? In any case, Grid had become seriously concerned about naming since that time and was troubled.

It cant be Grivurnum.

Grid had already promised Braham. The name of the new mineral he would create with Braham was Grivurnum. Yes, that was a story for when he made it together with Braham. The origin of this black-gold mineral was pavranium. Even if the Duke of Wisdom contributed to the creation, Braham would be unhappy if it had his name. There was no Braham in the process of creation. Not even his will existed.

Ok, Grivurnum is a pass. Dont worry and sleep well, Grid muttered toward Braham while cleaning up his inventory.

It was his habit of talking to himself. He recovered the white light mithril, Astaroths Horn, the Strengthened Blue Dragons Breath, and the shell of the cave cricket that had been decomposed in the process of smelting the Blade Aiming at the Gods. The white light mithrils durability was badly damaged, but the rest of the materials were almost intact.

...Okay, Ive decided.

Grid finished sorting his inventory and faced the notification window that was floating in his field of view.

[Please name the new mineral.]

The answer...

Greed.

The new mineral had infinite desire. It would never be consumed and would multiply constantly. This was the right name since it resembled the creator who wasnt satisfied with the peak he climbed to and was looking at a far greater mountain.

I have decided on Greed.

It was also a device to raise his awareness. Grid also knew that too much greed would be poisonous. After all, he didnt know the problems that would be caused by Greeds proliferation in the future. Braham was the only one who could solve it. A being who possessed satisfactory wisdom and the knowledge to realize it...

On the day of Brahams return, Grid would be complete. Grid believed this as he clutched the small melon-sized black-gold mineral in his hand. He wanted to quickly check the details of the mineral.

[You have completed your naming.]

[The information about the new mineral will be updated.]

Ttiring~

[Greed]

[Durability: Infinite

The legendary blacksmith Pagma and the legendary great magician Brahams collaborative work, pavranium has been reborn by Grid using his skills and epics.

Many characteristics have been added compared to the previous one.

* Acquired healing skills due to Goddess Rebeccas blessing. Increases the owners health recovery rate by 300%.

* Acquired an attack buff skill due to God Dominions blessing. The owners attack power will increase by 15%.

* Acquired a defense buff skill due to God Judars blessing. The owners defense will increase by 15%.

* Acquired a magic power buff skill due to God Yatans blessing. The owners magic power will increase by 15%.

* Judge and move on its own, executing its masters orders as the top priority. Every movement doesnt require power.

* The hardness, strength and brittleness cant be changed. However, there is a limit.

* Completely absorbs all properties. However, be careful not to grant conflicting properties at the same time.

* The proliferation will double the volume and weight every 10 days. However, this effect is only applied when it is in the pure form.

* There is a high chance of activating the crushing and reconstruction effects when hitting.

The passive skill Always Together is applied.

The titles Legend of the Canyon and Protagonist of Two Eras are also shared by Greed.]

Crazy...

The unique characteristics of pavranium the ultimate mineral, adamantium that had lost its holy power, and the black mithril given by Empress Basara...

A stone with its demonic power removed, the unique characteristics of Beriths Hoof which Grid had enhanced with the Ultimate Transformation, and the title acquired from his epics...

They were all in Greed. It was a result that went far beyond Grids expectations and imagination. Could he have imagined that his epics would affect the creation of a new mineral? Additionally, the proliferation effect was too ideal. It was really calibrated properly.

Correction was an advantage that every player in Satisfy enjoyed. For example, the system corrected it every time he crafted an item or created a blueprint. It was due to the system correction that Grid was able to draw the perfect blueprint and perform tasks in all types of fields without having the necessary knowledge.

Thats right. It was the system correction which implemented solutions for problems that couldnt be solved with the players level of knowledge based on the probability of the skill. This was what happened with the mineral creation.

In fact, Grid had been worried. The proliferation of the insane dragon iron wasnt to increase one to two but to increase it by one volume. For example, how painful would it be if the sword made from Greed became big and heavy every 10 days because of the proliferation effect?

Once it grew to an unacceptable level, it would have to be disassembled and a new sword would need to be created. Otherwise, he would need to solve the problem by using the Insane Dragon Hammer to delete this characteristic. Still, the quantity of created minerals would increase, so it was a problem that he could afford.

Now all his problems had been resolved. Greed would only multiply in its pure form.

Once it has multiplied enough, I can take some off and make an item.

The item would remain in perfect shape for the rest of its life...

Grids heart pounded with excitement when he thought of this. A great joy that was hard to express in words filled him.

Okay... Lets stay in this state for a while.

The mysterious round mineral was black and gold. Grid stroked the light elemental on his shoulder and started to involve himself in the blacksmithing work. He planned to experiment with the remaining 101 black mithril. What was the effect of the Hero Kings fighting energy on it? Could he grant this characteristic to other minerals or items? Could he transfer the power of his pets and summons? He had many questions.

Grids inquisitive nature was excited. Grid was confident about experimenting since his Genuine - (Fighting against the Gods) Legendary Blacksmiths Craftsmanship Skill allowed him to make at least epic rated items, and the Blacksmith Hammer to go against the Gods amplified his blacksmithing skill.

Ttang! Ttang! Ttang!

The clear metal sounds that hadnt been heard in a while started to reverberate in the smithy zone. Hundreds and thousands of blacksmiths flocked to watch Grids work, and the Overgeared smithies were full of energy again. For at least one month, Grid planned to focus on experimenting until Greed had proliferated three times.

Then I will create two new items with the multiplied Greed.

There was a feeling of fullness that could only be felt when working as a blacksmith. The smile on Grids face didnt disappear.

Time passed quickly. It soon became time for the next National Competition to become a topic of discussion. All of the worlds media was keen to analyze who had been chosen as the devil for the next National Competition. However, most of the rankers attention was focused on the Overgeared Kingdom rather than the National Competition.

Dont you think the pace of economic growth in the Overgeared Kingdom is crazy these days?

They have a complete alliance with the empire, so they can grow without any fear.

It isnt at the level of an alliance. It is like the empire is going to take over the Overgeared Kingdom.

Rumor has it that the emperor is completely obsessed with Grid.

Crazy. Although it is now empress...

It is because Grid was the one who made Basara empress in the first place.

That is too much. How could he make her an empress, even if he is Grid?

I dont think it is a rumor when analyzing the contents of the epic.

It can be interpreted in many ways. Its a coincidence, a coincidence.

Then is it luck in the end? Thats bullshit. If luck continues then it isnt luck, it is a skill. Isnt it right that Grid intended to make Basara the empress?

So what will you do?

Im going to move to the Overgeared Kingdom.

What? You too?

Yes, as things stand now, I cant see a future in this country. Once the Overgeared Kingdom is full of ambitions, it will be the first country to perish. I will go to the Overgeared Kingdom before that.

Hrmm...

The forces were now being divided. Was it the safe and sure empire or the Overgeared Kingdom whose future was full of expectations? The empire had grown steadily since Empress Basara implemented the unity policies, but the possibility of territory expansion was almost lost. Meanwhile, the Overgeared Kingdom was becoming saturated and was likely to devour nearby kingdoms.

Apart from these two nations, the rest of the world seemed to have little hope, so the players needed to make a decision. It was best to change boats in advance. There were three reasons for this.

First, there was the possibility of the Overgeared Kingdom expanding its power. Second, the importance of national power was revealed in the Great Demon Berith incident. Third, there was the variable of the East Continent.

As more information about the East Continent spread to many players, people started to be afraid of the Hwan Kingdom and the yangbans. A vicious force that dominated the East Continent...

If the transcendents of the East Continentwho had a great sense of civility than the Saharan Empire in the pastmade their way to the West, then weak countries would be destroyed overnight and the players of the destroyed countries would receive too much damage.

The only countries who could protect themselves were the empire and the Overgeared Kingdom. Thats right. The protagonist of the new era was the Overgeared Kingdom. This new era was accompanied by many changes.

Grruk. Kurruk.

The orcs...

...

The elves...

Kuhahat!

The half draconians and so on...

The many species that had been hiding in various parts of the continent to escape the tyranny of the empire started to emerge.

(TL Note: Small explanation, MCs name in Korean is , which is pronounced Geu-ri-d. It could be both Grid or Greed but I chose to go with Grid because I thought Grid was a better name and this isnt the common Korean word used for Greed. It wasnt until a few hundred chapters later where the author wrote the name in English that I discovered it was Greed. Still, I kept the name Grid because readers are used to it and I prefer it better. Some names sound weird when translated to English and used in an English sentence, such as Lord and Greed. But the essence of Grids name means greed.)
