Love Unbreakable

Chapter 2025

“So where is Grid and what is he up to?”

Every time something important happened and players who participated in an event got in trouble, thiswas the public’s reaction. At some point, it became a meme that mocked the so-called ‘Grid parrots’who always mentioned Grid if things became a bit difficult.

However, it had been quiet lately. There were many hateful comments every time there was a chatmessage or post mentioning Grid’s whereabouts.

Why the sudden change in atmosphere? This was because of what Grid had shown over the past fewmonths.

Grid’s battles were occasionally captured through world messages and epics. Ordinary people had littleopportunity to actually witness his fights. This made sense, given that Grid had fought high-levelopponents such as Transcendents, demons, gods, and dragons.

But recently, some people had been witnessing his battles. News of these battles spread. People’shearts sank. Seeing Grid fight was different from what they had imagined. It wasn’t easy seeing himstruggling to not die even though he’d gotten close to death several times. He looked exactly like anordinary person. Still, he kept fighting, but he looked absolutely horrendous as he did that. Ordinarypeople couldn’t bear that.

Despite repeatedly showing hopelessness at the enemy’s endless potential, Grid always fought untilthe end. Even if he got injured multiple times, he fought back rather than backing down. People evensaw themselves in Grid because, at the end of the day, he was just an ordinary human, just like them.The moment Grid took a step back from fighting, they remembered that his life could also fall apart ifsomething critical happened.

Since then, people hadn’t been mentioning Grid as much as they used to.

“That’s good.”

Reinhardt, the capital of the Overgeared Empire.

Grid inspected the situation of the battlefield as soon as he logged in. Just by looking at the contents ofthe guild chat and the announcements, he could picture the general situation. The periodiccorrespondence from the assassins of the Overgeared Shadows revealed details of the war.

“......”

Several Overgeared members tried to approach Grid, who was reading the letter, but gave up andturned back. This was because Grid was virtually bare. His helmet was set to be invisible, but he wasn’twearing armor, gaiter, gauntlets, or boots. Normally, they would’ve dismissed this while thinking, ‘Iguess he is planning to craft some items.’novelbin

But this was a rare situation. Even with less than a day left in the quest to stop the erosion ceremony, itwas unlikely that Grid would lock himself up in the smithy. On top of that, Grid had recently battledGaram, which meant that all of his armor had probably been destroyed.

‘So even the dragon armor made from Greed can’t withstand an Absolute at the level of a God of thebeginning?’

The members of the Overgeared stopped by Reinhardt to pick up various elixirs, potions, and buffscrolls. They were about to suggest to Grid to return to the battlefield together, but they ended upleaving quietly. Another ten minutes passed.

“Chensler is finally awakening his potential...”

Grid read all of the correspondence and recalled old memories. Armored Cavalryman Chensler… Gridhad analyzed his armor to gain his immortality, but he was shocked. The armor only provided infinite

physical strength and vitality to the wearer. It provided no such thing as immortality. Chensler becomingimmortal was a miracle born out of his loyalty to Juander. Miracles often happened in Satisfy.

Grid was lost in thought for a bit. Lord approached him and greeted him politely.

“Father.”

Most of the troops had left to fight on the Tomb of the Gods. Lord and the Daughters of Rebecca wereguarding the imperial palace. Lord couldn’t bear to leave his duty of protecting the capital.

“The due date is just around the corner.”

Soon, his younger siblings would be born. There were only two Full Moon Fortresses left.

The odds that the cultivators would give up on the Full Moon Fortress and launch a counterattack onthe capital were low, but Lord had remained behind to protect his family just in case.

Lord's expression darkened as he explained what was bothering him. “Queen Basara also moved tothe imperial palace, but... I got no response from Marie Rose, no matter how many times I tried tocontact her. Thus, I’m anxious.”

Surprisingly, his father had impregnated Irene, Mercedes, Basara, and Marie Rose around the sametime. All of their due dates were almost the same. This was why Lord had invited all of them to thesafest and most comfortable place in the world—Reinhardt, the capital.

However, Marie Rose didn’t cooperate with him. She didn’t reply to him no matter how Lord felt.

“Why are you so worried? She is in the safest place possible.”

Grid reacted as if what Lord was telling him didn’t matter. He believed that no one in the world woulddare to raid Marie Rose’s castle. However, he changed his mind when he saw the expression on Lord’s

face.

Grid remembered that there were no unbreakable rules in the world. He was proof of that. How couldhe guarantee that no one would dare to raid Marie Rose’s castle? Marie Rose was about to give birth.She was pregnant, so she wasn’t in the best shape.

More than anything else...

‘Lord will keep being anxious.’

Lord was a very grateful child. He grew up so well by himself. He respected and admired his father.Even though he suddenly ended up with three stepmothers, he readily accepted them. He possiblyreacted this way because of the medieval setting of Satisfy, but in any case... Grid wanted to makesure Lord would be there for his siblings when they would be born.

“...No. I shouldn’t be so arrogant at such a crucial moment. Marie Rose should be here too. I willpersuade her to come to Reinhardt.”

“I’m glad.”

Lord’s expression immediately brightened.

“I think that if my younger siblings get along together from a young age, they will care for, love, and relyon each other without any prejudices. Marie Rose is of a different race. That’s why I was worried, but Iam relieved that you changed your mind, Father.”

“......”

Seeing his child smile so brightly, Grid realized the real reason Lord seemed so upset. Lord was only ateenager, but he was very considerate. Definitely more than Grid was. Lord clearly resembled Irenemore.

“You...”

Grid hugged Lord as tightly as possible without saying anything else. Because of the affection thatwelled up deep in his heart, he inevitably hugged too tightly. It was a relief that he was hugging Lord ofall people like that. If Lord hadn’t had superior stats to anyone else of the same level or if he hadn’tinherited Grid’s items, he wouldn’t have been able to handle Grid’s strength and his ribs would’ve beencrushed.

Grid laughed when he saw the worry in Lord’s eyes. “Don’t worry. I will be able to control my strengthbetter when it comes to your younger siblings.”

Irene would’ve been in the most danger if Grid hadn’t been able to control his strength every time.

Grid hadn’t been so excited for a long time. He finally realized how much he cared for Lord.

“I can’t wait to see my grandchildren.”

The way Grid was talking was a bit bizarre. His manner of speech naturally changed depending on whohe was talking to. Grid, who was immature in front of anyone else, acted somewhat like an adult whenit came to Lord. However, the way he was acting wasn’t strange or awkward. This was a naturalphenomenon that every father went through.

“There are some girls I would like to introduce to you, Father. Once this war is over, I will try to imitateyou.”

“G-girls? S-sure...”

As expected, Lord was talking about the Daughters of Rebecca. Surely he didn’t mean all of them?Even though Lord was a prince, this was a bit...

For the first time in ages, Grid understood how his parents felt. He remembered how badly they hadreacted when he introduced Yura and Jishuka at the same time, saying he was serious about theirrelationship and that they were considering marriage...

‘But I won’t give up on any of them.’

In today’s world, it was rare to see someone bound by the laws of their respective country. Sincescience and technology had developed so much, the distance between countries had closed rapidly.Physical distance and language wasn’t an impediment anymore. If Grid decided that the laws of hiscountry infringed on his interests or happiness, he could change his citizenship. There were countlesscountries in the world who wanted Grid, Yura, and Jishuka.

‘...Wait. Could it be that Lord feels the same way I do?’

His thoughts stopped spiraling out of control. A chill went down Grid’s spine.

‘I will leave the empire because Father doesn’t allow me to marry these girls. I will abandon my statusas a prince and seek asylum in a faraway country that welcomes us.’

He imagined Lord telling him this coldly. Grid was deluding himself. Good thing he realized he wasdoing this. Nevertheless, he felt sad and depressed.

“Ahh... Irene, I’m sorry. This is all my fault, so I’ll let it slide this time...”

“Father?”

Grid was teary-eyed because he felt sorry that Irene would lose her son, but he came to his senses.Lord’s head was tilted to the side. Embarrassed, Grid cleared his throat.

“I will go to Marie Rose’s castle, so don’t worry and just wait.”

“Alright. I will take good care of my mothers.”

Lord said goodbye respectfully and returned to the palace. Grid really wanted to follow him. It had beena long time since he saw his wives. However, he was in the middle of war. All his comrades werefighting, so flirting would have to wait for now.

‘How about I don’t forget my duties? I need to be an example to others.’

Grid stopped feeling regretful and was just about to enter the warp gate when he received a whisperfrom his clone.

-I’ve made armor and gaiters for you to use right away.If you send Noe, I will deliver them through him.

When Grid had forcibly been logged out, Grid’s clone had made some decisions by himself. He kept aneye on Asgard’s developments while working with Khan and Hexetia to craft new armor for Grid. Ofcourse, the item was slightly weaker than armor that Grid could craft himself, but it was strong enoughto be used as a spare. Grid’s armor had shattered, so this was better than nothing.

“Thank you.”

A clone like this used to be an incarnation that only the chief gods of Asgard could create andmanipulate. Judar had used it as a bargaining chip with Grid as if it was a tremendous treasure. Thecultivators also really wanted the clone, calling him an out-of-body incarnation. Grid finally realized why.The clone was like another self. There were more benefits to this clone than Grid had initially thoughtof.

Unexpectedly, the clone had even crafted armor while he was away... Wasn’t this almost like anureongi gaksi? [1]

[You have entered Marie Rose’s castle.]

Grid smiled happily as he arrived at his destination in an instant thanks to the warp gate. This worldhad become so much more convenient...

Grid’s smile suddenly disappeared. There were no traces of anyone around. Marie Rose was nowhereto be seen in the huge castle.

“Marie Rose...?”
