Chapter 386



‘I lost . ’

Grid realized he was defeated, but he didn’t get frustrated . He was burning with motivation .

‘This isn’t the only chance . I must go beyond you (me) . ’

The clone had 100% of his stats, skills, and items . The clone was now kindly telling him .

‘You can be as capable of me . So exert yourself . ’

Kwack!

Grid strengthened his grip on his greatsword . The duration of his immortality was 5 seconds . In the meantime, Grid was trying to combine Linked Kill Wave or Pinnacle Kill . He didn’t worry about winning, losing, or dying right now .

“Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Link . ”

Cheook!

Grid started a light and cheerful dance like a butterfly . His black eyes shone more sharply than usual, resembling that of a bird of prey . Grid’s appearance was gradually developing along with his solid heart and mature brain . His appearance and expression that were full of passion didn’t look bad .

Teong!

Grid lightly circled around and narrowed the distance to the clone . At this time, Grid’s Greatsword moved horizontally in the movements of Kill . It was the precursor for Linked Kill . Grid tried to link Wave to it .

However .



[The cooldown time of Linked Kill hasn’t returned . ]

[The casting of Linked Kill is cancelled . ]



Of course it was like this . Combining Linked Kill and Wave was an incomprehensible realm for Grid .

‘Why is my clone capable of it?’

Grid was confused, but didn’t stop his actions . He used Pinnacle and Kill . He wanted to try to acquire Pinnacle Kill . But once again, the combination of Pinnacle Kill didn’t work . Pinnacle was activated before Kill was completed .

Seokeok!

The power might be less than that of Kill, but Pinnacle fell and deeply cut the heart of the clone . However, it wasn’t enough damage to threaten the clone whose health had recovered thanks to Doran’s Ring and the Holy Light Armor .

Grid was wishing for one thing in this situation .



‘Come on, counterattack . ’

Honestly, he wanted to avoid losing . The first problem was that he could lose his experience and items, and the second problem was his pride . That’s right . Grid didn’t give up despite sensing defeat .

The moment the clone’s counterattack reached him, he wore Doran’s Ring in order to recover his health and hope for a reversal . But the clone was Grid . No, he knew Grid better than Grid did himself . The clone acted with the knowledge that it would be pointless and dangerous to attack the invincible Grid .

Suuk .

‘You bastard!’

Rather than fighting back, the clone ran away, causing Grid to frown . He ran all over the battlefield, causing irritation to rise . Right before the immortal duration ended…

Snap!



[15,000 health has been restored . ]



Grid took the super health recovery potion taken from Reidan’s alchemy facility .

Chaaeng! Chaeng!

The clone calmly devoted himself to defense . He fully understood and blocked Grid’s sword with Iyarugt . Then he started counterattacking as soon as Grid’s immortal state was over . Of course, he didn’t forget to use a powerful one shot technique that would keep Grid from relying on Doran’s Ring .

It was Kill . Blackening, Blacksmith’s Rage, and Quick Movements . Since Grid used it one step ahead of the other, the effects ran out for Grid first . Therefore, he couldn’t avoid the clone’s Kill .



[Doran’s Ring has been equipped . ]

[You have suffered fatal damage!]

[You have died because health has dropped to 0 . ]

[You have lost 30 . 6% experience . ]

[Mission failed!]

[Exiting the 41st island . ]

[Moving to the last save point, the 40th island . ]





A black screen that hadn’t been seen for a long time . Grid’s vision turned black .



***

“Are you okay?”

The 41st island . The moment that Grid came here after dying, he saw Sticks’ distressed face . He was worried that Grid would suffer a mental blow, since this was his first defeat since entering the Behen Archipelago . But Grid was fine .

“Don’t worry . ”

Grid smiled at the worried Sticks and though positively .

‘I’m glad I didn’t lose any items . ’

Of course, it was painful to lose a lot of experience . His current experience gauge was 2% . If he challenged the 41st island and failed again, he couldn’t avoid losing a level . But Grid didn’t shrink back .


‘This is an opportunity . ’

He might fail a few more times, but if he overcame this trial, he would surely grow . Grid was confident and grateful for this situation .

‘I have to overcome this trial . ’

Effort was needed .

‘I need to wait until the cooldown of Randy and the immortality passive returns . ’

The next 24 hours . In the meantime, Grid concentrated on studying Linked Kill Wave and Pinnacle Kill .

‘The order of the skills isn’t wrong . ’

The wrong element was somewhere else . Finding it was the key .

“Sigh . ”

Grid took deep breaths and sat down to meditate . He tried to follow Regas’ usual practices .

‘Think about it . ’

The clone’s Linked Kill Wave and Pinnacle Kill were different from when he used it . Grid recalled the previous battle and concentrated on analyzing it . He tried to get a clear picture of each and every one of the clone’s actions .



***

“Meditation is the act of transcending from the pain of the mind and returning to a pure state of mind, without any distortions . It is the best way to look at yourself, or to look at specific situations and find a solution . ”

The desert city of Reidan .

Piaro returned to the city after working all day in the fields, and was giving a lecture to Lord .

“Meditation can also be used as a means to increase strength and stamina, and to reduce the cooldown of your skills . But humans are always self-centered . Meditation is a very challenging method of training that even the most famous knights find difficult . So young Lord, you don’t need to practice it right away . It is sufficient to know the concept… Heok?”

Piaro made a sound of surprise .

Lord Steim . The genius that Grid and Irene gave birth to quietly closed his eyes and started to maintain a constant breathing .

‘A perfect state of selflessness!’

Lord’s mana flowed around him as he breathed . It proved that Lord was affecting nature, so it was natural for Piaro to be astonished .

‘I was only able to acquire Natural State after becoming a legend . ’

Of course, Lord wasn’t perfect yet . But just awakening the basic concepts was a tremendous achievement . It was because some of the world’s most powerful and tenacious minds couldn’t enter this natural state .

‘This is…’

What was Lord going to grow up into? Maybe he would be the only one who could transcend Muller, one of the greatest legends in history .

‘He will grow more and more in the future . ’

It would surely give Piaro a new enlightenment . Piaro’s heart burned hot .



***

[The skill ‘Meditation’ has been acquired!]

[Meditation]

Increases health and mana regeneration rate by 50%, and stamina regeneration by 30% .

Skill cooldown time will be reduced by 10% .

Resource Consumption: None .

Skill Activation Condition: Focus .

* This isn’t a skill that can be artificially invoked . It will activate automatically when your concentration is extremely high .



In Satisfy, there were several skills that could be learned naturally when certain conditions were met . One of them was Meditation .

‘Good . ’

Despite the fact that Grid gained a way to increase his stamina recovery rate and reduce skill cooldown time, he didn’t make a fuss . He kept calm . He was too busy focusing .

‘Think about it . ’

Grid quickly erased any thoughts about the Meditation skill and recalled the movements of the clone . Was there any difference in the actions that the clone took with Link? No . He was certain . If so, was there something different about the actions of Kill? There was also nothing . He was certain . What about the behavior of the clone when using Wave or Pinnacle?

‘It is me . ’

Then why was it only possible for the clone to use Linked Kill Wave and Pinnacle Kill?

“…Ah!”

Grid had been thinking for over five hours when he finally got a flash .

‘The timing is different . ’

The action that connected Link and Kill, in the case of Linked Kill, it seemed to have been done immediately . However, Linked Kill Wave seemed to have a slight gap . But he didn’t know the exact interval .

‘I will try it once . ’

Grid didn’t delay once he had this thought . He got up and used Grid’s Greatsword to try and connect Link and Kill with a little time difference .

Then Link was triggered .

‘The interval is too long . ’

There was no need to worry about it . He would shorten the interval in the next attempt . Grid took a deep breath and made a second attempt . The result? It was also a failure . In order to used Linked Kill Wave, the timing of Link and Kill had to be sophisticated and perfect .

‘I will challenge until it succeeds . ’

Failure wasn’t shameful . It was a stepping stone to success . Grid knew this fact better than anybody because he had repeatedly lived a life of failure .

After that .

Grid failed to use Linked Wave Kill several times, but he didn’t give up to the end . A smile appeared on the face of the watching Sticks .

‘Truly Pagma’s Descendant . ’

Sticks knew that Pagma’s Rare Book was one of the treasures that couldn’t be found . Yet Grid managed to find it . Sticks guessed that Grid’s tenacity was great, but it was actually even more than he expected . In Sticks’ eyes, Grid was the type of person who would have a much brighter future .
