“That bastard.”
Daring to return her own arrow? Jishuka’s pride as the best archer was pricked and she frowned.
Papang!
She shot down the arrow with another arrow and turned her gaze to Regas, who was still caught by Bubat.
‘I’m sorry, I can’t help you.’
The magicians were desperately blocking the attacks from the catapults while the soldiers were stopping those climbing up the walls. Jishuka was currently the only one who could help Regas. However, her stamina was at its limits. It was impossible for her to use a skill. It would also be hard to rescue Regas from Bubat, Jeff and Ralph with simple archery. They were some of the strongest rankers. There were few people who could easily neutralize them.
‘One of those people is Grid…’
Grid naturally entered her mind. It was strange when she thought back to when she first met Grid. Jishuka never imagined when she first met Grid that she would rely on him so much. In the beginning, she just thought he was an idiot. But since then, he had left a clear mark on Jishuka.
It couldn’t be helped. When she realized that he was Pagma’s Descendant that she was looking for, when he first made an item, when he appeared in a crisis and saved her, etc. Grid was always special and intense. Almost like a drug…
“…Oh my, what am I doing now?”
This was a war. The screams of her colleagues and the soldiers never ceased and the number of enemies crossing the wall didn’t show signs of diminishing. It was absurd that she was thinking about Grid in the middle of this situation.
‘I am tired.’
She realized it. There was no hope in this war. The enemies were stronger than Lauel anticipated. Overgeared’s strength was too weak.
“Well, we can start from scratch if we lose everything.”
Becoming frustrated and giving up didn’t fit her nature. Jishuka firmed up her heart and took out a new arrow from the inventory.
“I don’t think we will lost everything?”
“…”
The battlefield filled with the sound of magic and weapons. It was so noisy that it was impossible to talk to the person next to her. Then why did she hear a clear voice?
“Grid…”
Jishuka turned her gaze in the direction of the voice. She smiled like the sun. Radiant, warm and beautiful.
Above her head. Grid floated in the sky and smiled evilly, making him look like a goblin.
“Everyone has suffered.”
Kiiiiiiing!
Dozens of round white lights rotated around Grid as he observed the battlefield. Each sphere contained a strong aura.
“What is that?”
The battlefield. The soldiers started murmuring as they discovered the white spheres in the sky. There were multiple small moons?
“…Eh?”
The Eternal soldiers were unfamiliar with this phenomenon and started speculating. A black-haired man floating among spheres of white light. He was only the hero of Eternal and was no a rebel, Duke Grid.
“A-Avoid it!”
“Run away!”
Grid wouldn’t produce a special scene without any meaning. The Eternal commanders hurriedly shouted but it was too late. The white spheres around Grid started to shoot all over the battlefield. They poured down on the battlefield like rain.
A reversal in the war?
“Kill everything.”
This was what it meant.
Pepeng!
Pepepepeok!
Hundreds of grey pillars rose simultaneously. Then Grid landed beside Jishuka and handed her a bow.
“Congratulations on truly becoming overgeared, Jishuka.”
Chapter 554
Chapter 554
Kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa kwa!
Dozens of white spheres hovered around Grid in the sky. The lights suddenly spread out and covered the battlefield.
“What is this?”
It was a wide range magic that had never been seen before. As the Eternal players were feeling confused, someone shouted.
“Magic Missile! It’s Magic Missile!”
Magic Missile was the lowest level magic. It had the advantages of a short cooldown time and activation time. In addition, the mana consumption was very small. This meant there was an obvious limit to its power. But Grid had clearly proven in the National Competition that his Magic Missile was different. Grid’s Magic Missile even hurt high rankers.
“They will aim for us!”
“A-Avoid it!”
The Eternal players started to run with all their might in order to avoid the bombardment. But there was no freedom on a battlefield filled with tens of thousands of people. In the confusion caused by the rush to get away, some people fell over and were turned to grey. They were players who died under the feet of their allies.
Peeng!
Pepepepeng!
Hundreds of Eternal players died.
Kuwaaaaaang!
Grid’s Magic Missile bombardment hit the ground. Did the fierce white flash pierce the hearts of the soldiers? No. That wasn’t their aim.
They hit the ground where thick shields were placed. The place where the siege weapons were. A hill filled with archers. The magic corps meant for increasing the speed of mana regeneration.
The places struck by Grid’s Magic Missiles couldn’t endure it and collapsed. Bubat watched the scene of the players and soldiers being devastated and felt alarmed.
“What is this bastard?”
Stopping Magic Missiles before they were launched and releasing them all at once?
“This is ridiculously overgeared!”
That’s right. Bubat thought the reason why blacksmith Grid could use magic was due to artifacts. This was the most common sense interpretation. The voices of the Yak Guild members were heard in his ears.
“He intentionally caused an explosion by targeting the magic wards?”
“He also broke the siege weapons and killed the soldiers.”
“That Grid, since when did he fight so cleverly?”
Originally, Magic Missile was a spell that dealt damage to a single target. Splash damage couldn’t be expected because it was a penetration type of magic. But that story changed when it hit facilities or explosives. Jeff was angry at the Yak Guild members who felt admiration
“What is smart about that? It is a basic arrangement that junior high school students could do.”
They knew that Grid was strong. But they shouldn’t forget that the foundation of his strength was items.
“Don’t shrink back just because you are overestimating them.”
Jeff glanced at Bubat.
“What? Come and finish him off.”
He was talking about Regas stuck in the ground. They couldn’t give him a chance to recover. It happened when Bubat nodded and was about to hit Regas with a hammer.
Kiiiiiiing!
There was an unknown sound and a heat filled the area.
“What…?”
Bubat, Jeff and Ralph started sweating and they paled. A giant firebird appeared in front of their shaking eyes.

“Congratulations on truly becoming overgeared, Jishuka.”
[Ownership of the Red Phoenix Bow has been transferred.]
“Truly overgeared?”
Overgeared was overgeared, what did he mean by truly overgeared? Jishuka was puzzled when she suddenly got goosebumps.
‘Don’t tell me.’
Did it mean an item she had been longing for since joining Overgeared? The bow had an intense color like flames were imprinted on it. Jishuka carefully guessed the identity of the bow that Grid passed her.
“Is this a legendary bow?”
Grid’s odds of creating a legendary item were very slim. It was the same probability of a named boss dropping a legendary item. Therefore, it was rare for people to have legendary items in Overgeared. It was the same for Jishuka. Grid laughed at Jishuka’s shining eyes.
“Let’s see?”
&
nbsp; A meaningful answer!
Dugun dugun!
After Grid’s dramatic appearance, Jishuka’s wildly beating heart became faster. She was filled with anticipation as she confirmed the details of the Red Phoenix Bow. Then she became like a stone statue.
“Eh?”
What was with the rating of this bow?
“Legendary… No?”

“U-Uh?”
Not surprisingly, Jishuka was an educated woman. One of her hobbies was reading. Therefore, her ability to read and understand sentences was excellent.
In a short time.
She confirmed the details of the Red Phoenix Bow several times.
“Is this a dream?”
“…”
It was a puzzling reaction. But she didn’t understand. Grid had created several weapons that were the strongest in existence, but this was the ultimate bow. Few people could readily convince themselves of this overwhelming performance.
“It isn’t a dream.”
“It isn’t…a dream?”
Jishuka heard Grid’s answer and recognized reality. She blankly took a few steps closer to Grid. Then she leaned her forehead against Grid’s chest.
“Thank you for your efforts, Grid.”
Jishuka had been watching Grid for a few years. She knew how hard Grid worked whenever making one item.
“You fought and studied hard on the East Continent.”
Duguen. Duguen. Duguen.
Jishuka smiled warmly as she listened to Grid’s heartbeat.
Gulp.
Grid’s face turned red as he swallowed his saliva. The world’s greatest beauty. A beauty completely to his taste had her face buried in his chest. Grid wanted to enjoy this time, but it was too unreasonable.
“Save Regas first.”
Kkirik!
Jishuka suddenly pulled away from Grid and pulled back her bowstring.
Hwaruruk!
The jaffa arrow started burning. The entire battlefield filled Jishuka’s eyes.
“Fly Up!”
The moment Jishuka’s shout was heard from the walls…
Kiiiiiiing!
The cry of the Red Phoenix rang out on the battlefield.
Kurururururuk!
Hundreds of thousands of fireballs fell from the ground, emitting black smoke. It was a disaster itself. It was an overwhelming force that made even Grid, the maker of the Red Phoenix Bow, feel frightened.
***
Kurururung!
“Pant…”
“What is this?”
Bubart, Jeff, Ralph and the hundreds of guild members led by them looked like they were possessed by ghosts. A firebird appeared in the sky and and generated thousands of fireballs with a flap of its wings. It wasn’t clear if this was a dream or reality.
It was an unreal sight. This was reality.
Thousands of fireballs poured out from the firebird and destroyed the battlefield in real time.
“What is this magic?”
The confusion of Bubat’s party reached its peak. But they weren’t rabble. They moved smartly in the midst of the confusion. They used defensive skills and evasion abilities to block the fireballs.
“These fireballs only aim once at one target! We just need to block it once!”
Kwa kwang!
Pepeng!
Kurururung!
All types of magic and skills were used, making the viewers happy. Bubat’s group barely managed to overcome the crisis.
“Heok, heok… Heok?”
They barely blocked the fireball bombardment. The faces of Bubat’s party turned white as they looked around again. Eternal’s players and soldiers. Close to 20,000 were burned and died at once. For those whose level was in the mid-100s, the fireball bombardment was a catastrophic disaster.
“Unbelievable…”
“Who’s using such an ignorant magic… Don’t tell me?”
They might be low level players and soldiers, but there wasn’t a class that could ‘sweep up’ thousands of people at once. The monsters such as Kraugel, Agnus, and Grid couldn’t do it. Therefore, Bubat was confident. It must by Earl Ashur. The great magician on Grid’s side finally showed up on the battlefield!
“Shit! Retreat! Increase all magic resistance!”
The Yak Guild members started swapping their armor and accessories and the Jeff and Ralph guild members followed them. This was an obvious mistake.
Piing.
A fire arrow was shot from the top of Patrian’s wall.
“Jishuka!”
Bubat belatedly noticed the flying arrow. This dumb woman was as persistent as a cockroach. He couldn’t understand what a single arrow like this could do.
“Don’t be silly and stay down!”
Bubat was frustrated because of Grid and Earl Ashur. He was angry because he missed the chance to kill Regas. At this time, Jishuka’s arrow was very irritating.
Peeng!
“You can’t tie up my feet for long!”
Bubat used the small shield hanging at his wrist to block the arrow. He didn’t bother using any skills to improve his defense. A Crusher was basically a tanker. He had high health, defense, and resistance. Bubat was even armed with the Undefeated King’s equipment. He had no doubt that one arrow couldn’t damage him. He intended to shake off Jishuka’s arrow and laugh. But it was impossible to laugh.
[You have suffered 7,390 damage.]
[The area hit by the arrow has started to burn! You will lose 2,500 health per second for 12 seconds.]
>
“Kuaaaaack!”
Bubat screamed from the unexpected pain. There was an explosion and fire burned his body the moment the arrow collided with the shield.
‘This damn girl! She recovered enough stamina to use her skills!’
Jishuka smiled brightly at Bubat, who hurriedly took out medicine for burns.
“That was a normal attack.”
“What?”
Chapter 555
Chapter 555
“That was a normal attack.”
“What?”
A normal attack? Bubat had pride as a tanker. If there was a defense power rankings, he was sure that he would be in the top 50. Yet a normal attack dealt nearly 10,000 damage?
“Nonsense!”
Jishuka’s arrow was accompanied by a great deal of fire damage and splash damage. There was a normal attack with such powerful features in the world? It wasn’t possible even for Kraugel, who had the strongest legendary class Sword Saint. Of course this was a skill attack. It couldn’t be a normal attack.
“Do you think I’m a fool?”
Bubat’s face turned red when distorted by pain. He was infuriated that Jishuka was making fun of him. The Yak members immediately stopped him from running towards the walls.
“We have to run away!”
“Don’t fall for that lowly provocation!”
“Kuoh…!”
Bubat barely suppressed his anger. He remembered that he would die if he delayed the time.
“Jishuka! I’m not avoiding you because I’m afraid! You know! In a one-on-one fight, you would be stuck in the ground next to Regas!”
Bubat participated in the war because he knew that the Overgeared Guild would be in a tough situation due to the numbers difference. The reason he could easily defeat Regas was by putting pressure on him using the numerical advantage. Now that the disadvantageous position was tilting, he planned to retreat.
There was a reason he couldn’t help overreacting to Jishuka in the world. It was due to a past event.
In the past, it had been four months since Satisfy opened. Grid was still level 40, and Bubat was level 100 and performing his class quest. The contents of the quest was to hunt 100 twin trolls alone within a week. It was before he was a Crusher, when he was still an ordinary tanker. Bubat sought out the twin trolls.
But he couldn’t see any twin trolls in the hunting grounds. It was because Jishuka had run rampant and defeated the twin trolls. Thus, Bubat was irritated. The 300 twin trolls took one week to respawn and the probability of success was low due to his weak attack power. He was furious at Jishuka.
