Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 112
Episode 112:
After hearing the whole story from X, Zawl burst into laughter.
“X, the more I think about it, the more I realize that you are such an amazing person! Not only did you steal a royal seal that has been passed down to a nation for generations, but you are thinking of using that seal on Xernis.”
From Zawl’s point of view, it seemed absurd. They came out of nowhere with another country’s seal and not only said they would take over their own country with the seal, but they even shamelessly asked for help.
However, there was no reason to dwell on trivial things now that he was a person from the past who should have disappeared from this world long ago. Besides, isn’t this a request from an irreplaceable benefactor?
Zaul continued.
“I gladly accept your offer. I am willing to suffer for a few decades if it means helping my benefactor. Plus, there’s a chance of meeting old friends.”
“Thank you for your favor, Your Majesty!”
Now that I have received Zawl’s permission and consent, all that remains is to use the truly forgotten seal.
X’s eyes turned to the forgotten royal seal in his hand.
-Forgotten Seal (Legendary)
Effective in forgotten lands.
You might be able to get everything, wealth and fame….
Special Effect: If you place a seal on the Forgotten Lands, you will gain sovereignty and ownership over the Forgotten Lands. You can now conditionally control beings from the Forgotten Lands.
A legendary grade item that goes beyond unique grade!
No information on legendary grade items was found after searching any community. There may not be any users who obtained it, or even if there were, they would not have reported it. I guess it was good.
The important thing is that you have a legendary grade item in your hand. It is also an item with tremendous effects.
“Let’s go out together first.”
X and Zawl headed out of the palace. Yongyong and the ice spirit followed behind them. Even considering the effectiveness of Samsung’s cooking, the weather has become incomparably milder than before.
“I really don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve seen the sun.”
The dark clouds that had been pouring down heavy snow on an empty day disappeared and the sun showed its presence stronger than before. I don’t know if it was my mood, but it seemed like the ice had melted a little.
Zawl’s voice was full of confidence.
“Although much of its territory is now buried under thick glaciers, Xernis was one of the greatest powers in history. “I’m not just saying this because it’s my country, I really mean it.”
“Hehe, I know very well.”
It was X who visited numerous ancient kingdom ruins while carrying out the ancient kingdom quest. Whether I was hunting or working hard, I always had a thought on which relic I should use the royal seal on.
As a result of that long agony, the place X chose was Xernis. The biggest reason was, of course, the existence of rune stones.
It is not easy to guess the benefits that a rune stone would bring, free from the influence of other beings.
‘Plus, the location is great.’
Xernis is located in the northernmost part of the continent that no one pays any attention to.
Having a territory means that a user will soon become the envy and target of other users. The reality is that even defending your territory is difficult if you do not have proper support.
But what user would come to Frost Storm Cliff? It might have been a long time ago, but it was already revealed that Asus had made a mistake.
‘You can raise your territory safely.’
Safe while having infinite possibilities! It can be said that there is no land more suitable for growing plants step by step. As if reading X’s thoughts, Zawl spoke.
“You won’t regret choosing Ex Xernis.”
X nodded and held the seal in his hand.
Phew, I took a deep breath and knelt down. He looked down at the frozen Xernis and slapped the forgotten royal seal on the ground.
Tiroling!
A notification rang.
[The Forgotten Seal is activated!]
[Forgotten Land Xernis recognizes you as its owner!]
[You have become the owner of Xernis!]
[The Lord’s authority is activated!]
“…!!”
As the lord’s authority was granted, the UI sparkled in one corner of my vision. But there was no bird to check. Because the royal seal melted and began to emit tremendous light.
Shoot!
A light so brilliant that it is worthy of legendary status. Light spreading like a pouring waterfall began to spread to every corner of frozen Xernis.
“What a beautiful sight!”
“Kyuut!!”
“Huh.”
Everyone could only open their mouths and sigh at the brilliant spectacle.
The light that enveloped Xernis began to grow stronger. At first, it was just white, but as time went on, the color began to reveal itself and become darker.
“What’s going on?”
X stuttered. Buildings that had been frozen and had not even a trace of life in them began to regain their colors. Smoke was billowing from the chimney and leaves were fluttering down the street.
Zawl’s voice became even more intense.
“Is this Xernis from the time I ruled…?”
“Is that true?”
“How could I not know what my territory looks like!”
The light of the royal seal was creating an illusion. The most brilliant appearance of Xernis was shown to the new owner, X. Surprised, X raised his head and became even more scared.
Because beyond the horizon, I could see a territory that stretched out so far that there was no end in sight. This seems to be referring to the territory buried in glaciers.
Suddenly, Yongyong’s curious cries were heard.
“Kyuu? Wow!!”
“Wait… that’s a person?”
Some of the light shining in that vast territory gradually changed into the shape of a person. Before long, the people of Xernis appeared, busily moving about in every alley.
Merchants working hard to sell and women bargaining hard. Children playing on the street as a playground.
The image of Xernis, who had a civilization superior to that of any other country in the past, was vividly recreated through fantasy!
Amid the spectacle, Zawl smiled bitterly.
“…It’s a gratifying yet bitter fantasy.”
“It was something that could not be helped.”
“Yes, I couldn’t have done it alone.”
Zawl spoke in a firm voice, as if he had really made up his mind.
“So this time, I will do my best to protect you. Your land, not mine. Your people, not my people. “Not with me alone, but with you.”
At this moment, X gained a trustworthy ally in the Holy King Zaul, whose achievements would go down in history.
X raised his eyebrows as he looked at Xernis, who was shining brightly.
“I will raise Xernis properly!”
*
The early morning sun shines brilliantly!
Lee Ji-won stretched out in a high-rise penthouse bathed in sunlight.
Looking at the Han River visible through the vast glass window, strength naturally goes into my shoulders.
“Lee Ji-won, you did it right once.”
In reality as well as in Fate!
Although I was tired, it was rewarding to be online for a long time. The quest for the ancient kingdom was completed and even the forgotten royal seal was taken care of in one go.
“Ugh, my wallet already feels empty.”
Jump up! Jiwon Lee opened the refrigerator and drank some vegetable juice.
Thinking about the huge amount of gold I was going to invest in Xernis, I felt like I needed to tighten my belt already.
Xernis was not a territory where NPCs lived and users stayed. Because of this, there was no one to pay taxes and no one to pay them. The gold invested in the initial base comes only from Jiwon Lee’s wallet!
“I guess the Ancient Kingdom quest is over. “I need to broadcast more diligently.”
I communicated with precious viewers and received gold as a gift to help with household expenses.
Lee Ji-won left the house with all the courage he could muster.
Tiring!
I took the elevator and headed downstairs.
‘For the sake of health, I’m gradually reducing the amount of cup noodles.’
Even in my early 20s, it was unimaginable to get tired from playing games. But now, if I overdo it, my body immediately reacts. Right now, it felt like my back was making a creaking noise.
‘Even if it’s a waste of time, I should think long-term and go to the gym.’
When I thought about my body, I felt like I needed to make time to exercise. This was also a concession made by moving into the penthouse.
These are things I would never have been able to do in my own room, where it takes 30 minutes to get to the supermarket and 40 minutes to the gym, because I didn’t have time to fight.
Lee Ji-won went shopping as quickly as possible.
‘Should I try grilling some meat for the first time in a while?’
In the past, it would have been just pork belly and ssamjang, but Lee Ji-won purchased some additional spices, including herbs.
Wouldn’t some experience in real life be helpful in Fate? Because I felt like I wanted to.
“…is this delicious?”
But somehow, the experience in Fate seemed to be helpful in real life.
After eating breakfast and lunch, Ji-won Lee cleaned up and headed straight to the gym.
“Hehe, I’m really dying.”
Crack. I took a deep breath while running on the treadmill. I felt like I was paying the price for neglecting my body.
I was out of breath after only running for about 5 minutes. My pride didn’t allow it. Jiwon Lee eventually decided to run for another 15 minutes and got off the treadmill due to exhaustion.
While I was barely soothing my startled body with cool water.
A familiar BGM was heard.
“Hey, Fate highlight begins.”
“The timing is wrong. “Try to raise your voice.”
“Hehehe teacher, can’t we just look at that and do it again?”
Weekly Fate Highlights!
It was natural that a great deal of attention was paid to the Fate highlights announced by Mage every week.
When ranked based on the influence they had on Fate World, there was competition among major guilds to take the top spot. So, naturally, the fun of watching also increased over time.
Jiwon Lee looked at the monitor and snorted.
‘Looks like those kids are number one.’
Those ugly war machines! War Machine has always been visible at the top. As if Kaimus wasn’t enough, Dazel Resorcerer also appeared as a regular in Fate Highlights. Even though I don’t like seeing it, it’s natural to be interested as a Fate user.
Jiwon Lee took a breath and looked at the monitor. Before long, a familiar face appeared on the monitor. It was Dazel with a playful and mischievous face.
“what? “War Machine is in third place this week?”
“It’s worth it. Didn’t you see the Songwol Raid video? After dying like that, you finally defeated the Hell Island boss. “How great of a person would he have been to say that Songwol made up for all the hardships he went through?”
Songwol caught the Hell Island boss?
Lee Ji-won couldn’t help but be surprised. It was truly an achievement worthy of being number one in the rankings. Hell Island was one of the disasters recognized by the Kingdom of Arba. Clearing a nationally recognized disaster as a guild unit was definitely not an ordinary person.
‘As expected, D’Angelo is not enough.’
Since he had received(?) something from Pajukjise, it was natural that he felt more affectionate than War Machine. Of course, if it were X, you would be grinding your teeth all the time.
“No, of course I know that. So shouldn’t War Machine be second? “There wasn’t much else to do this week other than clearing the Dazel single-player raid Songwol Hell Island.”
“uh? “Is it true?”
“…Wait a minute, Songwol is in second place?!”
The doubts of the men talking did not last long. The video of Songwol’s Hell Island Raid came to mind, and even before I could marvel at the gorgeous visual beauty. Because an image of a scale I had never seen before appeared on the monitor.
Endless territory!
Each and every architectural style of the buildings crammed into the territory seemed to display highly advanced technology.
The flashy outfits of the common people looked better than most Arba nobles, and the equipment of the guards occasionally seen was also sharp and of a high standard, comparable to that of most rankers.
Someone stuttered.
“You’re crazy. What is that city? “Who on earth discovered it?”
“There is no way there would be a big city like that on the Arba Continent… no, a huge country of that size. Could it be that there are players who have already reached another continent? “It’s a huge event, but this?!”
“Just come out for a moment. “Who is that?”
What soon appeared on the monitor was the image of a man armed with equipment so thick that it swallowed even the light.
The man’s eyes, glimpsed through his helmet, were focused on the brilliantly shining city.
The commotion grows louder with the appearance of the main character.
“What is that made of? “It kills crazy people.”
“Where did something like that come from and suddenly pop out?”
“Wait a moment. “Please do a search.”
An untimely commotion that occurred at the gym.
Jiwon Lee, who was quietly looking at the monitor amidst the commotion, quietly rolled his head.
Maybe it was because I lost unnecessary strength through exercise, but somehow my head seemed to be working better than usual. After finishing thinking, Jiwon Lee slowly raised the corner of his mouth.
“…Well, I guess this wouldn’t be bad either?”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
