Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 135

Episode 135:

There is no one who does not know about the five swords of the Luna Church.

Who would dare to argue with them?

If there were such a being, there would only be one.

The royal family can be called the most noble class on the continent.

“Inspiration. “It looks like Elaine got into trouble again.”

“Cluck…”

“Then I’ll see you later. “I think we should go see the group.”

Aldur and Galletto headed towards Elain, and Dio watched them closely.

The situation did not escalate too seriously.

High elf Elain, a different race from humans.

This was because the prince understood Elaine and ignored her.

“Enough, Sir Colin. “I think it was me who hit it first.”

The Empire’s 3rd Prince, Prian Freud, smiled kindly at the escorting knight as if enough was enough.

The 3rd prince, Prian Freud, is considered to have the greatest military ability among the princes.

The authority felt from him was in no way inferior to the strength of the five swords.

‘I came after clearing out the bandits in the west. The timing is not right. There has been an inflection point in time.’

Dio recalled a story he heard a while ago on a carriage heading to River North.

An incident known to players as the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Originally, the 3rd Prince would resolve the Yellow Turban Rebellion right before the start of the main story.

As you unfold the story related to the 3rd prince, you can hear stories about him.

This was one of the 3rd Prince’s achievements that influenced the story of the Order, so Dio remembered it in detail.

‘Well, because I kept messing with important people. If it doesn’t change, it will get even weirder.’

Anyway, the fact that the 3rd prince joined the punitive force was not a bad thing for Dio.

Atra, a castle founded by the Luna Church, and the imperial family of the empire appear to be friendly to each other, but are politically at odds with each other.

Therefore, the five swords would also not be able to move hastily in front of the prince.

‘At least they won’t attack me before the enemy like Telzia.’

Dio thought about Inspector Telzia.

At that time, the only force that could stop Telzia was a small group of Bertio knights.

But now, numerous nobles from all over the world and even the royal family came to visit.

More than half of those nobles are from the eastern region, where the Luna Church’s power is weak.

The point is that you can’t avoid seeing the five swords if you don’t notice them.

Moreover, even because the magic tower owner Aldur is involved, they will not act like Telzia.

‘3rd Prince Prian. His participation in this punitive expedition is an unexpected harvest for me.’

Among those gathered now, Dio quickly looked at those who could be very useful helpers to him.

It is natural that the 3rd prince Prian, who attended the subjugation in search of Kong, is included among them.

The hereditary succession of Freud’s empire prioritizes ability.

The person who has contributed the most to the development of the empire, whether academically or through military force, rules the empire.

This is Freud’s rule.

That’s why Prian risked his life to participate in this expedition so as not to be pushed out in the battle for succession.

‘The 1st prince was politics, the 2nd prince was knowledge, the 3rd prince was military, and the 4th prince was humanity.’

What differentiates the 3rd prince from other princes is that he does not shy away from risk.

The things the 3rd Prince did, including this expedition, are things that the Empire must take the lead in solving, but they are just as dangerous.

It was impossible for a member of the royal family to take the lead and enter the battlefield, but Prian did it.

The public opinion was that Prian was overwhelmingly superior to other princes in the military aspect.

This was something that Dio could fully understand.

‘I’m fine. Because this expedition will allow you to demonstrate your abilities to the fullest.’

Dio decided to do his best to help Prian take credit.

If you use this to create a cooperative relationship with Freeon, you can easily advance to the center.

If that happens, we will be able to naturally absorb the power of the nobles who are pushing Prion.

‘This expedition is a very good opportunity for Prian. Even if I help you just a little bit, you can make a big contribution and solidify your position within the imperial family.’

Dio looked at Prian’s back and then looked away.

It’s not time yet.

He is the number one target for attracting Prian to his faction, but that doesn’t mean he can focus on just one third prince.

Joining hands with the royal family means taking a lot of risk.

Because we cannot ignore the other princes who are putting their whole heart into the fight for the successor.

So Dio had to pay even more attention to seeing this expedition more broadly.

It’s not just about defeating Acrich, it’s about attracting capable people to your side.

‘Only then will it be able to sufficiently stand up to five swords.’

Dio shifted his gaze to the place where the forces that were trying to get a large share of this expedition were gathered.

‘Is he the only one among these?’

Numerous guild leaders.

Among them, a middle-aged man with an energy different from others stands out.

This man, who had a well-groomed beard that extended all the way to his sideburns, did not look rough at all despite his status as a mercenary.

Mercenary King Agram.

Sword master and strongest mercenary.

Agram was a mercenary who only sought profit and would do anything for money.

Even though he says he doesn’t do anything criminal, Dio knows.

Agram is said to destroy even the city if a reasonable price is paid.

‘Money is flooding me.’

The field in which Dio can be confident that he is superior to the 3rd Prince and the Five Swords is ‘financial power’.

I guarantee that the gold coins piled up in Malobon’s warehouse alone will be more than the wealth of the 3rd Prince Prian, who is right in front of you right now.

Moreover, if he visited warehouses all over the country, Dio could have established at least a small kingdom without adding any exaggeration.

I smiled as I looked at Agram, who was probably the easiest person to deal with among these people.

Not only Agram, but most mercenaries are driven by money, so these are the ones that Dio can immediately use with all his might.

Prian gives the ball away and the mercenary king tries to appease him with money.

Since there is a simple and sure way to deal with people like this, there is only the third group left for Dio to care about in the future.

Those who pursue honor and justice.

Northerners called barbarians and wandering knights without masters.

In addition, those who participated in this expedition with their own mission had the highest affinity for Dio.

Although there was an influence from the Hidden Quest, Dio, who took the initiative and formed a punitive force, was treated as a hero.

Therefore, you need to be careful about your behavior in front of them.

Those who will turn their backs as soon as they find out that they have another purpose.

However, on the contrary, if they were to carry out the suppression of evil they wanted, they would follow Dio more than anyone else.

In addition, there is no need to worry about those who are losing their minds one by one.

For those with large variables, it would be better to think on the fly.

-Boooooo!

Dio’s endless thoughts were stopped by the sound of a trumpet echoing throughout the castle.

Since everyone was there, it was a signal to prepare for departure.

“Will they really move in unison? And I feel very uneasy that the Luna Church is with us.”

“don’t worry.”

Dio held the hand of Sepia, who was expressing anxiety next to him.

It was not to reassure her, but to make sure one last time.

‘With this, there will be no problem if the five swords change at any time.’

A bracelet worn on Sepia’s wrist.

This was one of the items Dio took from the Marlobon warehouse.

—————

The effectiveness of [Mana Storage] increases due to the effect of the sun.

Mana Storage: Can store 125% of the user’s maximum mana.

—————

A bracelet with the blessing of the sun obtained from Solari.

Since Dio knew the value of mana storage better than anyone else, he had no doubt that this bracelet would protect his companions.

“Everyone ready?”

“yes. “I have taken care of everything you mentioned.”

Roberto, wearing gauntlets with a soft light flowing out, answered Dio’s words on behalf of everyone.

Not only Sepia, but the equipment of other party members, including Dio, were also strengthened with the blessing of the sun.

Although he was only able to strengthen two skills per week, Dio has been using the skills regularly since he stopped by the Malobon warehouse.

So the weapons and equipment provided to the party were much better than before.

Dio nodded to his companions who had fully prepared as he said and hurriedly moved.

It involves the movement of large-scale troops.

And to lead them, you also need to lead everyone from the front line.

However, Dio has no intention of leading it directly.

Because there was someone else who was best suited for this.

* * *

Since it is not a single army but an allied force from various forces, it is natural that it takes a long time to prepare for deployment.

Nevertheless, because the people gathered here were all unusual, they were able to quickly command the soldiers and line up the troops so that they could depart at any time.

Among them, those who are at the forefront.

The 3rd prince and the five swords of the Luna Church.

Prian Galetto Aldur Elain.

The reason these four people are at the front is because they have the qualifications to be leaders or commander-in-chiefs who can lead the assembled allied forces.

‘But there can’t be two commanders-in-chief.’

Dio looked at Prian and the five swords in a standoff.

Unless the commander-in-chief of the two forces is clearly determined, it is natural that everything will go wrong.

To resolve this, the 3rd prince and the five swords were engaged in a battle of wits in which no one could intervene.

Prion, the prince of the empire, and five swords with positions second only to the pope and saint in the Luna Church.

There were reasons why both sides could not give up their position as commander-in-chief of this expedition.

Freen wanted to make this expedition a complete success under his own name.

That way, there is a higher chance of being appointed to the position of crown prince, surpassing other brothers.

And the Luna Church’s position is that the church should naturally take the lead in suppressing the Demon Lord.

The reason they openly dispatched five swords to the East is to protect the faith of those who believe in Luna.

‘Of course, the intention may be different.’

Dio thought as he looked at Aldur, who was making a meaningful expression among the five swords.

In any case, the Luna Church decided that it would be advantageous for them to lead the army themselves in order to achieve their goals.

That way, troops can be freely divided and they can act secretly.

It is not a good thing for such friction to continue for a long time in the formed coalition.

Since each person had their own clear reasons, the people gathered here also had different ideas about who was suitable to be the commander-in-chief according to their own standards and thoughts.

This is the best reason for internal division.

Therefore, it was necessary for Dio to step forward before the fight between the two powerful people spread to others.

If we don’t stop it now, the reason for forming the alliance will fade.

‘It starts now.’

D.O.’s position is clear.

The reason this incident was made so big in the first place was to avoid interference from the Luna Church.

However, the Luna Church taking the lead in the Allied Forces is a situation that he would like to avoid as much as possible.

Dio looked at the mercenary king Agram, who was watching the confrontation between Prion and the five swords with a sad expression next to him.
