Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 113

Episode 113

‘How does this guy do that?’

The chamberlain broke into a cold sweat as he watched the head of the family, Bertio, notice him.

The Chamberlain was siphoning off the budget allocated to the internal affairs of the Duke of Bertio little by little.

It was easy for him to carry out the work secretly from the head of the family, Bertio, who only knew the sword.

For now, the chamberlain worked like a dog for the family.

It is easy to commit corruption only if you have the absolute trust of the head of the family.

The chamberlain regarded the huge Duchy of Bertio as his own treasure trove.

Although they say they steal it ‘little by little’, considering the status of the Bertio family, they were able to accumulate a huge amount of wealth with just that amount.

‘That guy… didn’t you say he was more skilled than knights?’

The roads around Manor Bertio were paved to an ‘adequate’ level.

Vertio knights, including Dalimus, who were trained with swords, would not be uncomfortable with this.

However, compared to the estates of other prestigious nobles, the street condition cannot be said to be good.

Even though the budget allocated for the street maintenance project was incomparably larger than that of other noble families.

“Duke. I guess there was some misunderstanding. “Because construction was delayed for a while due to other work…”

When Dalimus looked at him demanding an explanation, the chamberlain made a hasty excuse.

If you make a mistake, the plans you have made so far will end up in vain.

Why have you been trying so hard to gain the trust of the head of the family?

If you have solidified your position in the Bertio family, including the head of the family.

He was able to make his eldest son his successor.

If a bastard becomes the head of the Bertio family, then it will be his world.

If that stupid bastard is the head of the family, he can freely steal Bertio’s property without worrying about others.

That’s why he opposed Dio’s request to reduce Ates’ punishment.

This was the conduct of the Chamberlain, who was a powerful figure in the ‘Lennon-supporting faction’.

But everything was in danger of going to waste.

‘What do we do? ‘Can I avoid suspicion with the excuse I just gave?’

Dalimus is not interested in anything other than the sword, but he is by no means stupid.

As a duke, he learned all kinds of studies besides swordsmanship from a young age.

The chief chamberlain, who thought he would definitely be questioned about this matter, became dark in front of his eyes.

Perhaps because I was pointed out by a mercenary with no fundamentals in an unexpected way, I can’t even speak properly.

“Hmm…”

Dalimus, who found this even more suspicious, was about to open his mouth.

Ironically, the one who saved the Chamberlain was the mercenary he had ignored.

“Oh, I guess I misunderstood. Still, I don’t need anything other than the three demands I mentioned earlier.”

“…Even if I give you gold coins?”

At the mercenary’s words, Dalimus’ gaze moves to him.

‘My heart feels like it’s going to explode!’

It was fortunate for the chamberlain, but he was even less able to understand the mercenary’s actions.

And the falling mercenary’s horse.

“If you are going to give me personal compensation, I would like to receive something other than gold.”

“What is that?”

Dalimus’ eyes became interesting again.

The chamberlain who had been assisting him until now was very unfamiliar with him making this kind of expression.

Are you trying to make fun of your own feelings?

“I want to experience the best swordsmanship in the East.”

“what?”

“The matriarch’s swordsmanship.”

His words that will shock the head of the family, Bertio, who has paved and walked the path of nothingness all his life.

The chamberlain could tell.

That this guy is like a snake that can eat himself.

* * *

“ha ha ha!”

Dalimus laughed heartily at Dio’s bold request.

At first, it was difficult to understand, but after talking to him directly, Dalimus was able to understand.

The key is that it is a being that is very worthy of one’s chivalry.

“That’s right… I heard the report and they said you used sword techniques.”

“It’s a sword. “We still haven’t reached the level of the Sword Master.”

Dio took this opportunity to put an end to the strangely spreading rumors.

Do you know whose family the Sword Master belongs to?

There are some beings that will never be defeated even if they compete with Pentacle.

Among them, the most representative ones are those called Sword Masters.

It doesn’t matter if you are known as someone with a certain level of skill.

However, Dio did not want to face the monsters that came after believing the false rumor that he was the Sword Master.

“Well, I’d be happy to show you my sword skills. “But now doesn’t seem like the right time.”

Dio laughed inwardly at Dalimus’ words.

Considering Dalimus’ position as the person who had to finally resolve the incident that occurred in Oaks, he must have been very busy at the moment.

There is no way I can take the time to teach swordsmanship right now.

In the first place, Dio already knew Vertio’s swordsmanship and actually performed it in front of Ates.

Nevertheless, the reason why he mentioned the fact that he wanted to learn swordsmanship as a reward.

‘It’s difficult to find time for myself. Then, is that really the only thing the head of the family will do for me?’

Dio endlessly ‘pretended’ to be just.

Like the three compensation plans mentioned above, or saying that he is not greedy for wealth and just wants to learn swordsmanship.

This was a plan made while remembering Dalimus, a single-minded swordsman.

If you adopt this attitude in front of Dalimus, your reward will naturally be upgraded.

Just like ‘The Mountain Spirit and the Woodcutter’.

Dio remembered the ‘it’ he first thought of.

It was not a compensation that Dio needed or absolutely had to receive right away.

This is because it is not a word that refers to a single object in the first place.

‘But there’s no need to hesitate to keep it.’

‘It’ is a secret located beneath the lord’s castle…

“First of all, I’d like to ask you this. “Where do you plan to go now?”

Dio, who was satisfied with the scenario going as expected, was awakened from his thoughts by Dalimus’ sudden question.

“yes? Oh, that’s…”

“Ah! It’s okay if you don’t answer this. But for the time being…”

Dalimus’ mouth slowly opened as if he had put a lot of thought into it.

“You won’t be able to leave here.”

“yes?”

Dio was taken aback by the unexpected control.

“That…I don’t quite understand that treatment. “Why?”

Dio could not accept the matriarch’s words.

The biggest reason is that it is no longer possible to stop by the warehouse.

I had to pack up all the items in the warehouse and upgrade my specifications as quickly as possible.

Currently, Dio and his group ended up being targeted by Telzia, the church’s inspector, despite Conrad’s testimony.

There was a need to prepare for danger.

“Take it easy. “I know you’re busy too.”

Is it because I heard from Calliope that the key needed to get stronger quickly?

Dalimus nodded as if he knew what Dio said.

“Some people in Oaks are pleased with what you have done, but some are not.”

Dalimus’ words reminded Dio of Inspector Telzia.

“I intend to protect your safety as much as possible.”

“If that happens, won’t the Bertio family suffer damage?”

“Haha, are you worried about me? “The Duke of Bertio in the East?”

Dio was convinced by Dalimus’ confident attitude.

The Luna Church will not just listen to the words of one inspector and pretend to be Bertio.

Bertio is a great nobleman in charge of one axis of the empire.

‘Well, it might be safer to leave after Dalimus has finished and calmed down the situation.’

If he stayed in Bertio, the Luna Church would have no choice for the time being.

No matter how much they dominate the continent, it would be too risky to confront Bertio, who is a member of the empire.

“I’ll put off the swordplay you wanted until next time and give you something a little special now.”

“….”

“okay. “There are many precious things passed down from generation to generation piled up in our family’s secret warehouse.”

“Duke! “That’s not enough!”

The Chamberlain’s expression of surprise at this was truly worth seeing.

But Dio internally breathed a sigh of relief.

This is because the identity of ‘it’ that Dio expected was Bertio’s secret warehouse.

‘Phew, things went strange in the middle, but in the end it went according to plan. Bertio’s secret warehouse…well, it’s not bad. But compared to my warehouse….’

Players quickly found out that there was a secret warehouse in the failing Vertio.

So, Dio also went to Bertio’s warehouse to rob things.

There were a lot of useful items there, but I remembered nothing being particularly special.

“That place belongs only to the Bertio family, right? “You are giving them such precious things?”

“What’s the problem if I give you my things? And the Chamberlain.”

“Yes yes.”

The chamberlain felt numb for a moment as Dalimus looked at him with cold eyes.

“We’ll talk about what happened earlier later.”

“…Oh, I understand.”

The chamberlain trembled involuntarily at the words of Dalimus, who had not forgotten the issue of internal affairs.

“You follow me. “Only I can open the secret warehouse.”

“All right.”

Dalimus stood up and Dio laughed at the Chamberlain, who was anxiously awaiting the predicted abyss.

* * *

Dalimus said he would give treasures not only to Dio but also to his group and told them to bring everyone.

So now Dio and the others were following Dalimus and heading to the stone chamber located deep underground.

How long did you walk?

Dio and his companions had to go down the stairs for a long time before they were able to come across Bertio’s secret warehouse.

“It contains all the rare things I have collected, including heirlooms passed down from ancestors.”

When Dalimus arrived in front of the magnificent iron gate and gave an explanation, the eyes of the group members except Dio lit up.

“Wow, it’s quite big.”

“Can I really take anything?”

“Bertio’s hidden warehouse, which I only heard about through rumors…”

Starting with Sepia, the other party members also each said their own words in anticipation.

Dalimus just smiled silently at that sight, approached one side of the wall, and raised his right hand.

Kikikik –

Kugugugung –

The back of Dalimus’ hand on the wall was bloodshot, and his blood spread all over the wall.

Afterwards, the huge wall began to slowly open with a loud mechanical sound.

“Wow-”

Evelyn let out an exclamation as she looked at the numerous display cases spread out in front of her.

All kinds of items that looked unusual at first glance were neatly placed on the display stand.

‘Is it different from when I came?’

Dio, who had no expectations at all, was also surprised by the organized warehouse.

‘The bastard and the chamberlain… how much damage did they do?’

Dio stuck his tongue out in front of so many treasures that he couldn’t even compare to the secret warehouse he remembered.

Well, if you think about that greedy chamberlain, there’s no way he would leave Bertio’s secret warehouse alone.

“This is a space where only those I allow can enter.”

“Can I choose more than one?”

Dalimus shook his head at Evelyn’s immature question.

“One for each person. You won’t be cursed if you bring two, but that’s Bertio’s rule.”

The Bertio family’s rules for disclosing secret storage to non-heads of the family.

Regarding this, Dalimus added additional explanation.

“He who is blinded by greed will destroy himself. “These are the words of our ancestors.”

Dalimus’ warning not to be greedy.

At this, Evelyn swallowed her saliva without realizing it.

“Don’t be too disappointed. “There is not a single thing here that is insignificant.”

Dalimus laughed and pushed Dio’s back, as if he thought Evelyn’s frozen body was cute.

“I’ll make room for you. “Let’s choose slowly.”

“Thank you so much.”

Dalimus nodded to Dio’s greeting and left the warehouse.

“Wow, look at that! It’s a staff made of emerald!”

“I don’t think this gauntlet is ordinary either?”

Even as Eveline and Roberto were scrambling to look at the items, Dio didn’t have much expectations.

Dalimus confidently said that it was a rare item, and in reality, there were some items that Dio had never seen before…

but that was it.

‘I have a truckload of these items.’

No, the items above this were strong and strong.

It’s just that I haven’t had a chance to stop by the warehouse lately.

We also received a control order.

‘Still, let’s take a look around.’

Unlike the others, Dio walked through the shelves with Sepia following behind him.

Dio didn’t have much expectations.

But soon an interesting object caught his eye.
