Overgeared: Transmigrated as a Super Named NPC but also a Player

Chapter 4: The Real Start (2)

Days, weeks, and even a month had already passed since Lexus' carriage had left the Lubana Kingdom to return to the Eternal Kingdom. The reason was because the distance between the two kingdoms was very far, and a month wasn't enough time for a carriage to cover that distance.

Meanwhile, the carriage escorted by a squad of knights, passed several villages and towns. The thing Lexus paid most attention to during his travels was the training his NPC self never took seriously. It was uncertain how much benefit he could gain from cramming his training sessions while traveling. But he worked hard since he was told he had potential at the academy previously. More than anything else though….

「 Lexus, you're doing better than most trained knights but your feet and body are moving in different directions. 」

"Huh!?"

Lexus' movements went into disarray, as the wooden sword in his hand fell.

「 You're still much better than the first time. Your aptitude for swordsmanship is good. 」

This was the biggest reason why Lexus was training. He had Madra's ego to teach him and establish his foundations from the basics of swordsmanship every time the carriage took a stop.

"Wow! I've never seen anyone with such a talent in my whole life."

The knights who was on guard looked at Lexus who was training all by himself with excitement and envy.

While everyone was amazed on how fast he had grown in just that short amount of time, Lexus wondered.

'Should I try to get Pagma's Rare Book?'

Thinking about the book— a very important item in the novel which started everything, Lexus was eager to lay his hands on it.

As a fan of the novel, Lexus was well-aware of the greatness of that book. It was on par with the Undefeated King's old sheath, which could lead anyone to obtain a legendary production class item. However, if one knew how it worked, they could become an unrivaled being, surpassing its already astronomical value.

'If I get my hands on it, all I had to do was postpone the nerf and avoid producing 5 legendary items at the early stage so I can basically farm my stats.'

Lexus thought with thrill and excitement.

'If only the protagonist wasn't able to produce 5 legendary items at that time, he could have become more stronger and broken compared to his level in that moment.'

Being aware of the situation, Lexus knew exactly what he had to do if ever he could get his hands on that book. While he was excited, imagining that he might gain two legendary classes, system messages woke him from his daze.
