Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 109
Episode 109
: X reported to Zaul what he had seen and heard.
Zawl’s shoulders shook slightly. Among them, when he heard that the man in the white mask, a worshiper of another being, was still alive, Zawl became very angry.
“For what purpose do we have to go against providence…!”
The ice spirit calmed him down.
“Zaul, it’s dangerous if you get agitated.”
“Yes, you shouldn’t show these guys any flaws because of your personal feelings. But… I can’t help this boiling anger. “He sacrificed his innocent life only for destruction.”
It’s a situation where I can fully understand the devastated emotions he feels.
X and Dallas waited patiently for Zawl to compose himself. Jaul, who soon suppressed his emotions, opened his mouth.
“X.”
“I’m listening, Your Majesty.”
“I was defeated and surrendered to them and ended up like this, but you must never lose. “I will help you with all I can.”
“of course!”
X had no intention of quietly handing over Fate World to another being.
From the moment I started playing Fate, I decided that I would be the one to stand at the top of the Fate World. Another entity, clearly the final boss of Fate, was a mountain that must be overcome.
X added.
“And I also found a way to purify the contaminated rune stones.”
“Is that really true?”
“Yes, my colleague over here will assist you with the ritual.”
“Oh, it must have been a lot of hard work to get that far.”
Dallas was also quick-witted, and there was something he learned from being around X, who was a master of personal management.
Dallas bowed his head and greeted politely.
“It’s called Dallas. your majesty. It’s an honor to meet you!”
Cancer My colleagues should have this kind of insight.
X smiles happily! Likewise, Zawl let out a satisfied laugh and then straightened up his heavy body.
Zaul got up from his throne and bowed his head towards X and Dallas.
“No matter what the outcome is, we will not forget the fact that you worked so hard for Xernis. Jaul, the last king of Xernis, expresses his deep respect and gratitude to you.”
Although it is an ancient kingdom, a king is a king. A king like that bows his head politely to a user. This wasn’t normal. If regular users found out, it would be enough to make them faint.
At that moment, X and Dallas heard a cheerful sound.
Tiroling!
[You have discovered the
forgotten
ancient
kingdom of
His reputation rose explosively as he received the King’s gratitude at the same time!
X gained a whopping 4,000 reputation points, and Dallas gained 2,000 reputation points.
Dallas couldn’t help but be dumbfounded and shocked.
‘…and your reputation has increased by 2,000?!’
So far, the reputation I have gradually raised from level 1 has been less than 1,000 points. By praying sincerely every day, you increase your reputation among the clergy, and the reputation you have earned by doing good deeds to NPCs is by no means low…
You have doubled the reputation you have built up in one go!
Of course, with X, rice cake comes out even after eating!
Once again, Dallas couldn’t help but admire his wise choice.
Dallas glanced at X. X would have received similar compensation, or better compensation than himself.
‘Are you familiar with this situation?’
But there was no sign of much surprise on X’s face. Just a peaceful face like you always see on personal broadcasts. And he was just talking to Zawl in a friendly tone.
“Oh, you can feel free to say it… Then I’ll just assume that I received a thank you in advance. “I will definitely live up to Your Majesty’s expectations!”
Ah, I am far away.
If you follow that way of living, you have come a long way.
Dallas stuck out his tongue in sincere admiration.
*
“…If you open this door and go forward, you will find a rune stone.”
Zawl clearly looked distressed. The closer I got to the contaminated runestone, the more intense the alien power of the other beings became. It seems like it’s hard to stay sane. X noticed this and spoke to Zawl.
“Your Majesty, please leave it to us from now on.”
“Thank you. “Then I’ll be waiting.”
Zaul headed to the throne, supported by the ice spirit.
big!
The huge frozen iron gate was majestic just to look at.
Dallas swallowed dryly and asked X a question.
“Is there something called a rune stone in here?”
“Yes, it starts now.”
X’s voice suddenly became serious.
I saw a rune stone on Mermaid Island in the Forest of Old Trees. But it was my first time seeing a completely contaminated runestone.
Squeak!
X carefully opened the iron door. Then, the contaminated rune stone caught the eye of the two.
“…!”
The impression was simple.
The contaminated runestone was so foreign that it felt dirty. The energy of another being blooms from the runestone!
It felt as if hundreds of thousands of tentacles were shaking, making me feel uncomfortable and anxious just by looking at it.
Yongyong instinctively bared his teeth at the black glowing runestone.
“are you okay. “Calm down, Yongyong.”
“Kyuuu….”
X calmly calmed Yongyong down, but inside he was surprised. I was prepared for it to be out of the ordinary, but I never thought it would be this gloomy! The lingering black energy naturally gives me goosebumps.
I raised my head again and looked at the rune stone.
Tiroling!
A notification rang.
《The Fall of the Ancient Kingdom-2》
The evil beings who destroyed the ancient kingdom are still spreading their spell in the present era. The contaminated runestone will become the foundation for their destruction of the world. But the opportunity remains. Your efforts to learn the truth may produce different results than in the past.
Condition: Purification of Contaminated Rune Stones
Difficulty: B+
Reward: Blessing of Rune Stones
[This is a repeatable quest.]
“Wow.”
quest!
The exclamation came from Dallas. Dallas, the protagonist of Rune Stone Purification, also shared the quest.
The reason Dallas was surprised was simple.
So far, the only ones who have succeeded in B+ difficulty quests are the large guilds, especially the top guilds, including War Machine and Bajukjise.
Dallas also performed on C+ difficulty level. But it’s a B+ difficulty quest for me!
Is this a dream or reality?
After making his decision, Dallas immediately took action.
“The ancestral rites will begin immediately!”
Leaving behind Dallas, who was busy going through inventory, X fell into deep thought.
It looks like the Ancient Kingdom chain quest ends here. Although the difficulty level was lowered, the rune stone purification quest could be performed repeatedly.
‘The reward is the blessing of the rune stone.’
We all know that rune stones have mysterious powers. However, it is unclear what kind of blessing will be given. If you perform the quest repeatedly, the reward may change, and in any case, there is no loss by receiving anything.
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
“no. Mr. X, just sit there. There are many priests who are better than me, so I can’t believe you shared this precious quest with us. “Now it’s time for me to return the favor.”
Dallas is full of motivation.
X laughed and sat down.
“Then I’ll do my job and wait.”
The time required for the ancestral rite is one full day.
This was not the place to waste even a single day.
X took out ingredients from his inventory. Spices are made by grinding the dried roots of plants. The spices were sprinkled on dried beef jerky and fish shells to create new foods.
“Kyunut!”
“Why do you want to eat?”
“Kyuuuuuuu!”
“Yes, our Yongyong will be bored too.”
Yongyong eats beef jerky while making a purring sound! X watched Dallas, who started praying tremblingly, and devoted himself to researching how he could raise his stats a little more.
A day passed like that.
For some reason there was no response. More than half a day has passed since Sioras mentioned it, and not a single fly has been seen, let alone God. It seemed like Dallas would be permanently logged out if we put more strain on the cold weather that didn’t even attract flies.
“First, eat this and warm up.”
“Thank you. Ugh, but I don’t know why there’s no reaction. I prepared holy water and said enough prayers…”
Dallas was so disappointed that he was unable to swallow the stew that X gave him. I offered a sacrifice as I learned at church, but I couldn’t feel anything. More than that, it was shameful that no progress was being made in the quest because of him.
X shrugged his shoulders and stood up.
“We have to find out the reason now.”
There is no way Sioras was wrong. In that case, the conditions for a sacrifice to summon a god would not have been met.
X went to the spot where Dallas was praying.
Holy water in a silver cup. The sacred water that was to be the offering did not freeze even in the bitter cold and glimmered. Still, you never know.
X raised his glass and asked Dallas.
“Dallas, what did you say you need for the memorial service?”
“A small offering to show sincerity and sincere faith… The high priest said. Wait, I think I know the reason for that failure?!”
Dallas’s expression suddenly darkens!
“All right. “So that’s what happened.”
Even X could guess the reason. Even though he chose to be a priest as a career, honestly, where is his faith?
The true faith that the high priest spoke of was not about status. That really speaks of one’s heart to serve the god he believes in.
In that case, the only person who could summon a god was an NPC priest. Dallas quickly opened his mouth.
“It’s too much for me, and I think it would be better to ask the high priest for help here. Although he may not act for his own self-interest, he will definitely help for the survival of Fate World!”
X nodded and looked at the holy water in the glass. Dallas’ opinion was best. If you are a high priest with enough justification, you will be able to successfully carry out the ancestral rite without difficulty.
But it was disappointing.
‘I think I’ll have to be tied up for more than 15 days?’
You also have to persuade the NPC and the high priest. Moreover, even if we succeed in persuading them, we will still have to obtain permission from superiors, and it is obvious that it will take a year to get to this point.
Is it okay to regret one thing?
‘We should wait and hunt together.’
When X was about to give up his greed and compromise, Yongyong started circling around X. Yongyong’s golden pupils are full of curiosity!
“Kyuu? Wow!!”
I was excited without knowing this guy’s speed.
“Yongyong, why are you so excited…?”
X’s eyebrows twitched as he looked at Yongyong.
Goooooh.
The dark iron armor, which normally swallowed up the light, was actually glowing. No, to be precise, they were reacting to each other.
X’s dark iron armor and holy water reacted with each other, producing a soft glow.
“…for a moment.”
And that soft light was enough to illuminate X’s old memories.
Soft light and dark iron. This was definitely a phenomenon I had seen before. At that moment, X began searching through the inventory at lightning speed. I searched deep into the depths.
‘What are you doing sitting down all of a sudden?’
Dallas, curious, opened his mouth.
“X? Is there any problem?”
“no. doesn’t exist. “Be prepared!”
“yes?”
Are you really telling me to leave right now? Have you just warmed up?
Dallas felt a little sad for a moment before X held up a tree branch.
Goooooh.
Just like holy water, tree branches react with dark iron to glow!
The corners of X’s mouth rose.
“If you lack faith, wouldn’t it be enough to offer a sacrifice so large that it would make up for your lack of faith?”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
