Chapter 190



One and a half years ago in Satisfy time . It was a story when Grid was still level 21 after becoming Pagma’s Descendant .

‘How about an item production game over the smithy?’

The Mero Company was exploiting the residents of Winston, when Rabbit came to Khan and made a suggestion . From Khan’s point of view, accepting the offer and winning the game was the only way to keep the smithy .

But Khan was an alcoholic and not in a position to play . He couldn’t fully demonstrate his abilities as a blacksmith . So Khan asked Grid to participate in the game for him . Grid was blinded by the compensation and readily accepted .

He competed with Euphemina, who was hired by the Mero Company, to make an item . The result was Grid’s loss . Grid would’ve won if the contest was normal, but due to the tyranny of the Mero Company, he was arrested during the contest and locked in prison .

The situation was desperate . Grid was unlucky enough to fail the quest and was fuming in prison . He was completely out of his mind, screaming that the game gods had cursed him . But then an unexpected savior appeared .

It was Euphemina . Thanks to her help, Grid was able to regain the Ideal Dagger, rescue Huroi, and gain the title ‘Apostle of Justice . ’ Strictly speaking, Euphemina was Grid’s savior . But .

‘I’m not pleased at all . ’

Grid was uncomfortable reuniting with Euphemina . He was reminded of old memories and positive sentiment was unwelcome . It wasn’t because he had bad feelings towards Euphemina . Grid was just scared .

‘If I can’t produce a unique rated orb… what will she do?’

Grid didn’t know about the disadvantages of the Duplicator class, and he thought Euphemina was the best OP . He was suspicious of anyone stronger than him . Euphemina wanted at least a unique rated orb in exchange for returning the Ideal Dagger .

What if he didn’t meet her expectations? Would she PK him if he completed a normal or rare rated orb?

Grid was really scared . He couldn’t afford to endure the bombardment of Euphemina’s best spells .

“It’s been a while . ”

On the other hand, Euphemina was very glad to see Grid . In the past, Grid deliberately (?) acted foolish, but he actually had a legendary class . She was glad about the fact that the famous Pagma’s Descendant would make her an item .

“I watched your great performance in the National Competition on TV . You were really cool . ”

Euphemina greeted him with charming eyes, and boasted an outstanding beauty that attracted people’s attention . The onlookers made a fuss .

“Who’s that girl?”

“Seriously adorable . I want to put her in my pocket . ”

“Damn Grid… He already has Yura and Jishuka, now there’s this girl . I’m seriously envious . ”



“Beauties always follow the heroes . God Grid deserves to be king of the harem . ”

Euphemina had a short height of 150cm and a small figure . The innocent face was cute and stimulated a protective instinct . Some men were filled with desire towards her . But she didn’t suit Grid’s taste . Grid favoured a mature body more than Euphemina’s childish one . Therefore, Grid could be calm without being swayed by Euphemina .

“There are many eyes watching . Let’s talk after moving . ”

‘That attitude is still present . ’

Grid was like this the last time they met . He was indifferent to her beauty . No matter how lovely her eyes, he never noticed it . She even suspected if he was gay or impotent . But he got into a scandal with Yura and Jishuka during the National Competition .

Euphemina’s pride was hurt .

‘Are Yura and Jishuka better than me?’

She ran after Grid’s party with puffed up cheeks and they soon arrived at Winston Castle .

“Welcome!”

The soldiers saluted Grid and hurriedly opened the gates .

“You worked hard . ”

Grid naturally greeted the soldiers and entered . Euphemina admired him . “You seem to have become a noble?”

As the overall level of users increased in rec ent years, quite a few rankers had become nobles . Experts speculated that there were at least 15 rankers who were awarded the title of a baron . Euphemina also wanted to become a baron . As expected, a legendary class was truly great .

Then the boy with the ID of Lauel said unexpectedly . “He is a viscount . In addition, he is the husband of Lady Winston . ”

“…Huh?”

Euphemina was stunned . He wasn’t a baron, but a viscount? He was at the same level as masters of large guilds like Zibal and Chris?

‘And Lady Winston…’

Irene . She was the only successor of Earl Steim, one of the supreme powers in the Eternal Kingdom . Her marriage was significant enough to cause an uproar in the world . But her undisclosed marriage partner was a user, not a noble NPC?

‘It was Grid…’

He couldn’t get married to a noble just because he had a legendary class . The relationship between Grid and Irene was obviously deeper than anyone imagined . That type of bond couldn’t be gained by accident . Euphemina misunderstood that Grid intentionally approached Irene to marry her .



‘Marrying a female NPC, he is playing a completely different game from others .

It was like the dating simulation games that girls liked to play .

‘Amazing . ’ Euphemina’s eyes shone brightly like lanterns as she watched Grid . ‘The first legendary class person transcends common sense . ’

Grid was the first person whose skills couldn’t be duplicated by Euphemina . Therefore, she tended to overestimate Grid . During the National Competition, people ignored Grid for his lacking control . But she thought differently .

‘There is no need for control, as he can just roughly use his skills . ’

She was proven right by Grid’s overwhelming actions in PvP . It might be a fate that started badly, but Euphemina was proud that she knew Grid . But Grid didn’t know her inner thoughts . He had no interest .

“Did you obtain all the materials needed to make the orb?”

Winston Castle’s smithy .

Grid asked in a blunt voice as he lit the furnace . Euphemina felt unhappy at his continued apathetic attitude and responded with a sullen face .

“Of course . It took me a year to get the orb production method and then six months to obtain all the ingredients listed . My preparation is perfect . ”

‘One year? Half a year?’

Was she crazy? Investing a year and a half just to make a single item? Grid thought Euphemina was a fool . But in reality, Euphemina was extremely normal .

Users played the game with specific goals . The characteristic of heavy game users was doing their best to achieve that goal, no matter how long it took, while light game users gave up when it became difficult .

Euphemina was a level 283 private ranker, so of course she was a heavy user . She didn’t think it was strange to invest a year and a half to obtaining the best orb . It was just the way she enjoyed the game .

In the past, Grid was also like her . Grid was someone who discovered Pagma’s Rare Book after a few months of hard work without giving up . But Grid had changed . He forgot how to enjoy playing the game because he considered it as a means of making money . It was impossible for the current Grid to understand Euphemina .

‘She truly is scary . ’

He couldn’t upset her . He didn’t want to imagine what type of terrible things would happen if he broke Euphemina’s year and a half of hard work .

‘It must be at least a unique rating . ’

Grid pledged . He prayed to the gods .

‘God, Buddha, Goddess Rebecca, God Judar, God Dominion, please protect my experience . ’

Grid might not be religious, but he didn’t reject the existence of a god . He sincerely prayed to the popular gods in reality and Satisfy . He begged them to help him make a unique rated orb . After a short prayer .

“Let’s begin . ”

Grid braced his heart and cut to the chase .

Then .

“I’m asking you, the legendary blacksmith . ”

Euphemina handed Grid the production method that she took a year to obtain .



[’Mumud’s Orb Production Method’ has been acquired . ]



‘…Mumud?’



The name of the most powerful orb was truly terrible . He was disappointed .

‘It’s like Dainsleif . ’

Grid had no idea who Mumud was . So he was surprised when he opened the production method .

‘This…!’



[Mumud’s Orb Production Method]

Learning Conditions:

Mastered the Blacksmith’s Craftsmanship skill .

Or have Dwarven Blacksmith’s Craftmanship skill level 5 or higher .

* Mumud’s Orb

An orb designed by the dwarven craftsman Milepeu, who taught Pagma before he became a legend . It was widely known as Mumud’s Orb because Braham’s disciple, Mumud, loved this orb all of his life .



It needed the blacksmith craftsmanship skill to be mastered? The learning conditions were unusually high . It was the highest level among all the production methods that Grid had acquired so far . Even Albatino, who was called the greatest blacksmith before Pagma’s appearance, wouldn’t be able to make this orb .

In other words .

‘This orb, it’s an item of a higher rank than Dainsleif . ’

This was a precious production method he got for free, without having to pay for it . Euphemina hadn’t wasted the year and half that she invested in this . Grid thanked Euphemina . He felt appreciation towards her for the first time .

“Euphemina . ”

“Huh?”

Euphemina was surprised when Grid called her name for the first time . Grid promised her, “I will do my best . ”

“…”

The reunion after one and a half years . Grid never paid attention to Euphemina even once . But his attitude changed at this moment . He gazed at her with calm eyes . His facial expression made him look like an entirely different man .

Euphemina felt confident in him and smiled brightly .

“Thank you . ”

A notification window appeared in front of Grid .



[’Mumud’s Orb Production Method’ has been acquired . ]



‘Interesting . ’

This was a rare opportunity to create the best item . As a blacksmith, Grid was very motivated .
