Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 183

Episode 183:

Only two of the five swords remain in the Luna Church.

Galletto and Paul were killed, and Elaine defected to Solari’s side.

In the case of Aldur, he was not seriously injured during the eastern expedition, but Calliope sent him away.

Calliope said that for the time being, Adur would have a hard time even returning to the Luna Church, so the only five swords, Scarlet, that can be moved immediately.

And because Dio knew this fact, he personally came to the forgotten temple.

To end Scarlett with his own hands.

“You are the guy of the rumor.”

Scarlett looked at Dio, who seemed to have come to meet her, and opened her mouth.

“okay. And you are the famous Inquisitor of Optics, right?”

Scarlett has a terrifying title that goes beyond sadism and is optical.

Scarlett smiled her signature smile at Dio’s words.

Even though people knew of her twisted personality, they did not dare to mention the word ‘optics’ in front of her.

This was because there were more than one person who offended Scarlett and went crazy.

“This is an honor, but the fact that you came here even though you know who I am…can I say you were waiting for me?”

“It’s not necessarily because of you.”

Dio took his eyes off Scarlett and glanced at Sepia.

Sephia, feeling his gaze, just made an incomprehensible expression, and Dio sighed.

‘As expected, we’re together… Will Sepia be able to overcome it?’

Dio’s reasons for coming to the Forgotten Temple were varied.

First, to examine the Death Knight statue.

To summon the second Scarlett.

And finally the third.

To find ‘him’ who will be by Scarlett’s side.

“Oh, the face next to him is familiar?”

As if noticing Dio’s gaze, Scarlett also looked at Sepia and raised her voice tone.

As if he was happy that a fun toy had found itself.

“I have a rough guess…yeah. Are you looking for him? But what should I do about this?”

Scarlett took a step back and one of the many paladins standing behind her stepped forward.

At this, Sepia’s eyes opened wide, and unstoppable trembling took over her entire body.

“Oh brother!”

The person who once asked Dio for Sepia’s safety.

Sepia’s only blood relative.

Sigmund, Lieber North’s deputy knight commander, appeared before Dio and Sepia.

* * *

Even though Sepia has become stronger, fighting Scarlett is clearly dangerous.

Nevertheless, the reason Dio came to the Forgotten Temple with Sephia was because there was a very high probability that Sigmund would stay by Scarlett’s side.

If this was the original version of Order, Sepia’s death would result in Sigmund ascending to the position of the strongest judge of the Luna Church.

Overtaking the reputation of Paul Eppenhaus, whom Kaleina always had by her side.

However, because of Dio, Sigmund cannot awaken.

Because sepia is alive.

And in this process, Sigmund stopped the Luna Church to protect Sephia and helped Dio escape from prison.

‘I guess it was because of me that Sigmund was captured by Scarlet…’

Unlike Sephia, who was at a loss for what to do about the unexpected encounter, Dio showed a bitter expression as if he had fully expected this.

This was because Dio knew that Sigmund, who was not awakened, was just good prey for Scarlett.

Sigmund, who is not a judge, will not be stronger than Scarlett, so this is expected.

Dio looked at Sigmund, who seemed to be out of his mind.

Unlike Sepia, Sigmund’s eyes were not looking at her.

Sigmund has eyes that make him look like someone’s puppet.

His eyes were only fixed on Dio.

As if ready to pounce at any time.

“Hello. The heretic inquisitor of our new Luna Church. “It’s Sigmund.”

Scarlett, who knew about the relationship between Sigmund and Sephia, sneered as if it was amusing.

“What did you do to my brother!”

“Sepia wait a minute.”

Sepia could not hold back her anger and tried to attack Scarlett, but Dio caught her.

This was because Dio needed to inform Sephia of Sigmund’s condition accurately.

Sigmund’s eyes are devoid of any emotion and the Luna Church paladin outfit he is wearing.

The current Sigmund had been brainwashed by Scarlett and was clearly on the side of the Luna Church.

“Are you going to stop these families from being reunited? “He’s also cruel.”

Sephia gritted her teeth again at Scarlett’s words, but thanks to Dio’s intervention, she was no longer provoked.

“calm down. “Sigmund is out of his mind now.”

“…How can I save my brother?”

“….”

Dio hesitated at Sepia’s words, which contained the will to save Sigmund at all costs.

This is because there was no particular way to save Sigmund right now.

It’s not that Dio hasn’t thought about what will happen to Sigmund after he was captured by Scarlet.

Sigmund must have tried to somehow escape the Luna Church in order to meet Sepia again.

So Dio wished Sigmund good luck.

With Sigmund’s skills, there would be no possibility of escape.

So, right before I summoned Scarlett, I secretly hoped that Sigmund would not be next to her.

However, contrary to Dio’s expectations, which only depended on luck, Sigmund was unable to escape the hands of the Luna Church.

‘Because there’s no way Scarlett would leave someone as strong and confident as Sigmund alone.’

Dio clearly remembers Scarlett’s twisted personality and abilities.

The skill called ‘Sadistic Grasp’ is a unique skill that only Scarlett can use in the Luna Church.

When Scarlett meets someone she likes, she uses her powers to constantly torture them.

Until the other person’s strong beliefs collapse.

The longer she endures, the more Scarlett’s sadism awakens, so even Sigmund has no choice but to collapse.

‘Could the Pledge of Liberation have saved Sigmund?’

Dio thought as he looked at Sepia, who was looking at him with sad eyes.

The oath of liberation not only lifted the curse of Sepia, but also the brainwashing of the World Tree.

Moreover, with Scarlett’s skills, it would definitely be possible to solve it with the Pledge of Liberation.

However, the number of people who can contract with the Oath of Liberation that has reached level 3 is two.

In order to increase this, the level of the oath of liberation must be further increased, but Dio has not yet figured out how to do so.

There were other problems too.

Even if the number of contractees bound by the oath of liberation is empty, the current Sigmund cannot understand Dio’s words at all.

And this becomes the biggest obstacle to the success of the liberation pledge.

‘The pledge of liberation is applied only when the other party agrees. But now, Sigmund…’

Dio looked once again at Sigmund, who was standing next to Scarlett.

Unlike Sepia and Elaine, Sigmund has no ego of his own right now.

Even if you use the Pledge of Liberation on Sigmund, the Pledge of Liberation will not proceed unless Sigmund agrees.

“Heresy…kill…kill.”

“Now, aren’t you nice? hang on. “Because this sister has a little more to talk about.”

The voice coming out of Sigmund’s mouth was difficult to believe was human.

The appearance of a berserker who appears to have lost consciousness.

Scarlett calmed down Sigmund’s animal-like cries.

“Are you okay? Even if you fight with your lovely brother?”

“….”

“Did you say you are the Great Warrior of the Sun? “What are your beliefs?”

Thump-thump-thump-

Scarlett continued speaking as she slowly approached Dio.

“If your goal is to destroy the moon, you will have to cut down the family of a precious comrade… can you do it?”

Scarlett, who took out a red dagger, continued speaking.

“If you give up your head here… I could let Sigmund go.”

Scarlett pointed the weapon at Dio, and Dio put his hand on the hilt without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, Scarlett snorted as if steam had escaped.

“joy! I knew it would happen. Is that your choice? Well, your life is the most precious thing. Just in case, even if you kill me, Sigmund will not come back.”

There was no lie in Scarlett’s additional words.

Sigmund’s mind is completely broken due to torture that exceeded the limits of his body.

This means that the mental modification applied to him was not created solely by Scarlett’s magic.

Unlike other brainwashing magics, there is no way to solve it because it is a special condition created by both magical and physical factors.

And Sephia needs to know this information.

Dio spoke calmly to Sepia.

“sepia. “I also want to save Sigmund.”

“….”

“But there is no way. “The sadistic grip that Scarlet uses…the brainwashing never wears off even if the caster dies.”

Sepia seemed shocked by Dio’s words and couldn’t say anything.

D.O. was a person who somehow found a way no matter what problem he had faced so far.

Sepia couldn’t help but be even more shocked when Dio said that there was no way.

Even though Dio thought he was heartless, he didn’t have time to comfort Sepia right now.

If I had time, I would have convinced her from the beginning and then brought her here.

Anyway, even if she makes a decision, Dio will just respect it and follow his own path.

Moreover, even if Scarlett is killed now, it is impossible for Sigmund to regain his senses.

No, killing Scarlett could put Sigmund’s life in greater danger.

If Scarlett loses control, Sigmund will go crazy until he dies.

So Dio quickly made a decision.

‘In the end, the method is…’

Dio had no choice but to trust Sepia.

I hope you understand what I’m doing.

Dio once again made up his mind and spoke clearly to Sepia.

“sepia. “I’m going to kill Scarlett from now on.”

“yes? Then my brother…”

“If Sigmund interferes with me…”

Sreung-

“I have no choice but to cut him down too.”

Dio, who had fully drawn his sword, spoke quietly to Sepia what he could not bear to say.

If there was a clear way, Dio would have tried to save Sigmund.

However, for Dio, avoiding friction with the Luna Church in order to find a clear way is extremely foolish.

I feel sorry for Sepia, but her life is at stake.

What have you been fighting for and surviving until now?

This is why Dio brought Sephia with him, considering the possibility that Sigmund was by Scarlett’s side.

What if there comes a day when Sephia hesitates because of Sigmund at an important moment?

Sepia will be confused and unable to act properly like she is now.

In that case, it is better to face reality early on.

“You decide too. Either follow me and fight, get out of this place, or…stop me.”

Dio stared into Sepia’s eyes and spoke strongly.

Dio’s eyes showed his will to respect whatever choice Sepia made, but that he would definitely fight.

“I…”

Sephia stuttered because it was not an easy decision.

And she also hesitates in making a decision because she fully understands Dio’s position.

Leaving the sepia behind, Dio slowly walked forward.

In response, Scarlett also raised one hand, and the Paladins who received Scarlett’s signal slowly raised their weapons.

As a rough estimate, there are close to 200 paladins.

“I…”

Sepia closed her eyes tightly as she looked at Dio’s back, who was fighting hundreds of Paladins, Scarlett, and Sigmund alone.

However, Sepia had already made a decision in her mind.

The reason she is alive and breathing now.

The person who only granted his wish to live is trying to fight his enemies alone.

As Sepia

‘s confused mind slowly began to calm down, a warmth appeared in the air around her, as if representing her feelings.

The only family member may lose their life in this fight.

but.

If you hesitate here, you could lose everyone you care about.

The person named Dio was not just someone who needed to return a favor to Sephia.

The person who helped him get up on his own.

A kind person who laughs with you when you’re happy and comforts you when you’re sad.

A person who is like another family that I meet in my new life.

That’s exactly what Sepia felt for Dio.

Flash!

Sepia’s tightly closed eyes opened.

One interaction appeared before Dio’s eyes that signaled her resolve.

Tiring!

[Sepia’s trust has increased by 20.]

[Oath of Liberation contractor Sepia’s trust has reached the maximum 100.]
