Naive No, a fool. Learn how to be more suspicious and vigilant.

Braham had no intention of taking Grids body from the beginning. He needed to be resurrected in his own body, not somebody elses.

The reason why he attempted to take Grids body was to make an alarm ring with Grid. It might seem threatening, but it was intended to do a favor for Grid.

Why?

Hes a person who makes me nervous, but hes also the benefactor who achieved my 300 year old wish.

It was his way of expressing his appreciation. Grid didnt know it.

[Well, we might be enemies when next we meet.]

Brahams soul started moving. His destination was the Sword Grave. It was where Brahams body was sealed.

Reidan was a city that aimed to be the next Talima. Therefore, Administrator Rabbit invested most of the budget into blacksmithing and alchemy development.

But it was funny. Currently, the most developed area in Reidan was agriculture. Fields spread out in all directions around Reidan.

Now the crops are growing.

Grid returned after completing a quest that he had left alone for a year and a half. He looked around at the fields.

I think the scale has become bigger

He didnt know why, but Piaro had a passive skill that had a 100% chance of making the land fertile. Thanks to this, Reidan always enjoyed the pleasure of a good harvest, no matter what crops were grown. The agricultural products accounted for the largest portion of the items that Reidan exported.

It is rumored that this is an agricultural city.

A city with a legendary blacksmith had become an agricultural city? It was indeed ironic. Honestly, Grid didnt like it.

Huh?

The agricultural section of Reidan was growing despite not having a big budget invested in it! He didnt know if he should be glad or sad. The confused Grid stopped in place at the rice fields. It was because a scene captured his gaze.

You can do it! A newcomer will arrive in one hour!

Okay! Heok? Dammit! We have been waiting for a new guy!

Heave ho, heave ho.

Farmers were working hard, using various farming equipment. Users were mixed in among them?

What?

The desert ecosystem had stabilized thanks to the activities of the Overgeared members, but the barrier of entry was still high. It was unthinkable to step foot in this place unless they were level 260+ users. In Reidan, it was difficult to find users other than the Overgeared members, and the residents were NPCs. In such a situation, why were users farming?

As Grid was feeling doubts. Piaro, leader of Overgeared Knights Division and commander in chief of Reidan appeared in the fields. He started to lecture the hard working users in the field.

It isnt about the quality of the hand plow. More wrist

Isnt the ground too fine? This isnt the only way to plant seedlings. Brownie trees grow better in rough soil.

[A legendary farmer has been born!]

He recalled the phrase he witnessed a few months ago. Grid was blank with shock for a moment, before shaking his head.

No. Piaro dreams of being a sword saint, so he cant be a farmer. My Piaro isnt a farmer.

He decided, but he couldnt bring himself to check Piaros details using the Great Lords Sword.

I should ask about the Amethyst Shield next time

He didnt want to talk to Piaro while he was wearing a straw hat.

Trudge trudge.

Grids footsteps were heavy as he ignored Piaro and moved away from the fields. On the other hand, 21 users were working in the fields under Piaros direction.

Dammit A 55th ranked magician has to be farming.

I have to swing a hand plow instead of a sword

The 21 users caught by Piaro had a high level. Most of them were in the late 200s. They came to Reidan to join Overgeared, but unfortunately couldnt join the guild. It was because they were caught by a crazy farmer.

The crazy farmer was naturally Piaro.

In the past when he dreamed of becoming a sword saint, he enjoyed fighting with strong users and caught the ankles of high level users. After becoming a legendary farmer, he caught the users ankles for another reason.

I will develop Reidan into the best agricultural city.

The problem was that Administrator Rabbit didnt increase their budget. In particular, he was lacking manpower. Insufficient manpower? He had to make up the difference.

Uhuh! That isnt how you use a hand plow!

Hah.

The users caught by Piaro could only sigh. However, the reason they stayed in the fields was because of the reward of the quest.

[Fun and Enjoyable Training!]

Hidden Quest

Live with the farmer Piaro in Reidan. If you join him, you can grow significantly.

Quest Clear Conditions: Live together with Piaro for three weeks.

Quest Clear Rewards: All stats +10. The skill Farming will be obtained.

The reward was low compared to the hidden quest that Kraugel and Damian received. However, that was just a story for the two people. From a general point of view, the reward of +10 to all stats was tremendous.

There is a crazy farmer in Reidan. He will fight you and knock you down. Dont run away. Thats right. If you can endure the trials that will follow, you will be able to taste sweet fruit.

A strange rumor started to circulate on the Internet. Most people thought it was a ghost story, but the seven guilds were different.

Crazy farmer!

Reidan was still being guarded by him? The 2nd ranked Zibal grabbed his forehead. His forehead was still sore.

***

The first person Grid looked for when he arrived in Reidan wasnt Irene or Khan. It wasnt Lauel or Rabbit either.

Eh? Grid?

Laella. A beautiful British woman who was a world class idol.

Grid was once her fan. Rather than her excellent vocal ability or appearance, Grid liked her because her body suited his tastes. Her breasts were very large. It was enough to be reminiscent of fruit.

What did you find me for?

Grid stared at her breasts as always. Laellas face turned red with embarrassment and she hurriedly asked. Grid regained his spirit at her reaction and explained his purpose.

Hum hum, this time I learned magic. I want to accurately test its power.

Laella was in charge of the magicians at Reidan. There was a facility for measuring magic power in the mage barracks that she was in charge of, and Grid wanted to use it.

Magic?

Laellas eyes widened. The blacksmith Grid could use magic?

How can you use magic? Ah! You did a quest related to Braham. Did you learn a spell from Braham? What spell did he teach you?

Grid replied to Laella without hiding anything.

Magic Missile.

Ah, yes.

Indeed, it would be hard to teach a blacksmith proper magic. Laella couldnt hide her disappointment and led Grid to the training ground behind the barracks.

Fireball!

Ice Arrow!

It was the Ul Clan, who Grid had saved from destruction. They were gifted in magic and were training on one side of the training ground. Laella pointed to a silver scarecrow as Grid was observing the Ul Clan with a proud expression.

The scarecrow was produced by Reidans alchemy facility. It was a type of magic sandbag that could set the magic resistance from 0 to 5,000.

First, set the magic resistance to zero.

Grid stood in front of the scarecrow and Laella said to him.

I have set it up.

Okay! Magic Missile!

Grid aimed at the scarecrow and shouted. Then a white flash struck the scarecrow.

[You have dealt 2,894 damage to the target.]

The effects of various titles, Malacus Cloak and the Black Quartz Earrings meant that he currently had 1,048 intelligence. The resulting magic power was 1,258. The buff on the pavranium increased magic power by 15%, so Grids final magic power was 1,447.

The expected maximum damage of Magic Missile (Enhanced) was 2,894, and this was the result that emerged. Laella was startled.

Isnt this surprisingly powerful? Is he wearing items that amplify magic power?

A blacksmith didnt invest points in the intelligence stat. Laella thought that Grid had 400 intelligence at most. The damage that users could exercise with a Lv. 1 Magic Missile and 400 magic power was very small.

Grids Magic Missile was remarkably powerful. Grid spoke to the stunned Laella.

Increase the scarecrows magic resistance to the maximum.

The maximum was 5,000. Even most boss monsters didnt have this much magic resistance. Magic Missile would be completely ineffective against it.

There will be no damage.

Grid just urged Laella.

Hurry.

Its a pointless experiment.

Laella thought that Grid was so excited about magic that rational judgment was impossible. She imagined Grids look of disappointment as she set the scarecrows magic resistance to 5,000. Then after a while.

[You have dealt 2,894 damage to the target.]

W-What?

Laella was astonished. Grids Magic Missile ignored 100% of the targets magic resistance. In short, it was a scam. Laella hiccuped with surprise, while Grid made a satisfied expression.

It isnt very efficient in hunting or raids.

It was great against users whose maximum health was only 10,000. The activation time was one second and the cooldown time was five seconds. It was a spell that would be very useful in PvP.

A dark smile appeared on Grids face. Then a guest came to see him. It was a completely unexpected guest.
