Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 36

Episode 36

Dio couldn’t immediately understand Ludens’ words, so he just blinked for a few seconds.

‘That was divine power?’

The unknown power that the unconscious Sephia showed was not magic.

It was surprising in many ways.

“I have been watching Sepia for a long time. “I never thought something like that would happen while I was away…”

The series of events Ludens was referring to was Sepia’s kidnapping.

“It may be my mistake, but there are regular meetings among the surviving believers.”

Ludens acknowledged his mistake but added the reason why he had no choice but to leave.

“But I guess that’s why you, who was called by him, were able to come here and meet me, right?”

The words of Ludens, who was convinced that Dio was a messenger called by the sun god.

“The alien power you have. Who do you think gave it to you? “This is possible because I received His grace like Sepia.”

In fact, I was just guided by the ‘system’, but Ludens’ words are not entirely wrong.

To be honest, isn’t the system no different from the god of the game world?

‘Maybe…my being trapped in the game has something to do with God.’

Either the system or God.

Whatever it was, Ludens noticed that Dio was moving on a quest.

From that alone, Dio could tell that Ludens was a character that deviated from common sense.

‘The things we have done so far. Is this really what the sun god intended? Or is it simply a coincidence created by the system?’

Dio had a lot of things he wanted to ask him, but he raised his head when he heard a commotion outside.

-Search the mansion immediately!

-Find sepia!

Was it because the battle with Ludens was so intense?

A loud cry was heard from Sigmund, who realized that someone had broken into the mansion.

However, Ludens, looking down at this, still remained relaxed.

“Sigmund is coming. Unfortunately, the conversation ends here. There may be a lot of things I want to ask, but I will find out naturally. If you’re curious, find out for yourself. First, if you go to Estel Room, my close friend will be there. “It would be best to go there first.”

Ludens met Dio’s gaze and nodded briefly.

“It was a short meeting, but it was a useful time. Please follow His revelation without doubt.”

Thump thump!

-shit! The door won’t open!

-continue!

At the same time as the commotion outside, Ludens’ new form began to disturb and soon turned into black smoke, and he uttered his last words.

“The sun will rise again.”

“for a moment! So you asked me to do something….”

Bang bang bang!

Dio shouted urgently, but all he heard was the sound of the door being smashed down.

Kwasik-!

The door was smashed, and Sigmund and his knights rushed in.

However, in the room, only Sepia, who was sleeping, and Dio, who was standing there, could be seen.

“sepia!? D.I.O! “What happened?”

Sigmund, who looked at the messed up room and the sleeping Sepia, urged Dio.

However, despite Sigmund’s question, Dio could not take his eyes off the place where Ludens disappeared and just stared at the system window that had surfaced again.

“I’m hungry.”

Dio wrapped his arms around his hungry stomach and held on to the iron bars that were imprisoning him.

“Hey, I have to give you food.”

“Quiet.”

Boom!

The lowest-ranking knight in Rivernos, who performed the duties of a prison guard, hit the bars hard, causing Dio to sigh and sit back down in the corner.

The explanation as to why Dio is locked in the dungeon of the Rivernos Knights’ mansion is simple.

Many people heard the news that a demon had appeared in Rivernos and saw his movements heading towards the knights’ mansion.

And although Sigmund and the knights did not see Ludens, they saw Dio’s room in disarray and Sepia sleeping, implicating him with the demons and arresting him.

It’s not that Dio didn’t defend himself.

However, since he is involved with the demons, it is impossible to just trust his words and leave him alone.

Even though he was indebted to Sephia’s treatment, detaining Dio was a natural duty for Sigmund, who held the position of deputy knight commander.

‘It’s really twisted.’

Because Dio was innocent, he accepted the Templars’ arrest, but the situation was not so good.

I know that Vampire Lord Ludens is friendly towards me.

But that was the problem.

Even if Dio killed him for his own safety, it was enough for him to see himself as a ally of the demons, as he had not suffered any wounds in the bloody battle with the demons.

‘Damn you. Are you going to take a poop and throw it away?’

Dio gritted his teeth as he remembered Ludens, who did things without thinking about what happened next.

‘It would be a big problem if we got caught up in heresy.’

Dio knew better than anyone else that being involved in heresy in the Order would not lead to good results.

As I was thinking about how to avoid this situation, I heard someone approaching through the bars.

The person who came to the prison was none other than Sigmund, Vice Commander of the River North Knights.

“Loyalty! “Nothing more than working!”

A knight’s shout was heard as he appeared.

Gesturing lightly, Sigmund approached the prison where Dio was imprisoned and opened his mouth.

“I will take charge of his interrogation. “Would you please leave for a moment?”

“yes!”

The knight who saluted went out of the prison, leaving Dio and Sigmund alone in the dungeon.

“Isn’t that too much? Still, I think he is a benefactor.”

“…D.I.O.”

In response to Dio’s complaints, Sigmund softly called his name.

“why?”

“The situation is not good.”

“Thank you so much for reminding me of the obvious truth.”

Dio sarcastically responded to Sigmund’s serious words.

“I am sorry for detaining you. But there were a lot of eyes watching.”

“….”

Dio was secretly surprised by Sigmund’s apology.

The reason Dio is currently imprisoned is because he was involved with demons…

Seeing him apologize first, it seemed like Sigmund believed to some extent that Dio was innocent.

Or there is another reason.

“Luna’s messenger came after hearing the commotion yesterday.”

“what?”

Dio’s eyes opened wide at Sigmund’s words, and he realized that he wasn’t talking about himself when he said the situation was not good.

“Do you know a mercenary named Monte who has been active in Evra Village recently?”

“…uh?”

Dio, who had no idea that Sigmund would hear about Monte’s existence, opened his mouth.

“I don’t know what you have to do with that mercenary. But Luna is tracking him. And…I’m also curious about your fate as it involves a huge explosion demon.”

Sigmund, not paying attention to Dio’s reaction, continued speaking quickly.

“The problem is that sepia is also involved. I don’t know what your identity is. But…the only option I have now is you.”

His words about choosing the lesser evil rather than the worst.

Sigmund told the story that Luna’s messenger requested an interrogation of Dio and Sepia, who were at the scene of the incident, and that he refused for fear of revealing Sepia’s unusual abilities to them.

“You’re screwed.”

Even for the Rivernos Knights, it is very dangerous to disobey the Luna Church’s request.

It will not be possible to avoid the eyes of the church until the end.

“Sepia’s condition has worsened. Perhaps he used that unknown power. “I’ve had this happen a few times in the past, but it was severe.”

“okay?”

Sepia said he had run away a few times in the past.

He said that every time, his brother stepped in to help resolve the issue, but this case will not be easy to overcome.

“Luna’s eyes are looking across all of Rivernos. “From the moment I refused their request, they started moving.”

Sigmund grabbed the lock that secured the prison door and gave it a strong squeeze.

Crackling –

the lock shattered into pieces.

Dio, who realized Sigmund’s intention, clicked his tongue.

“You won’t be safe either, right?”

The identity of Monte, who is being pursued by Luna, can be hidden.

However, due to the explosion and the involvement of demons, even Dio’s original identity became dangerous.

To be honest, Dio thought the Luna Church was the player’s ally until he talked to Ludens.

However, there is something I heard from Ludens.

Whether Ludens’ words were true or false, Dio had no choice but to be wary of Luna, and their pursuit felt like a death sentence to Dio.

If the existence of the saintess ‘Kalayna’, who was the de facto leader of the Luna Church and the player’s best mate, turns into an enemy…

‘Gulp.’

Dio, who felt terrible just thinking about it, swallowed his saliva.

“If sepia catches their eye, it’s the end. I do not have time. I will stop them as much as I can…”

“Vice-captain!”

Outside the prison, Sigmund’s subordinate urgently called to him.

Sigmund quickly blocked the knight who was trying to enter the prison to hide that the lock had been broken.

“What’s going on?”

“They…the people of Luna’s Holy Emperor!”

Sigmund, who could guess what the knight was going to say even without hearing anything, quickly nodded.

“i get it. “I’ll follow you soon.”

Sigmund, who sensed that what was coming was finally coming, sent the knight out and turned around to look at Dio, who was still in prison.

“Sephia moved into my room. Sepia…”

Sigmund bit his lower lip, raised his head up, looked at the floor again, and looked straight into Dio’s eyes as if he had made up his mind.

“Fucking fast. “Take her and leave Rivernos immediately.”

“….”

Dio looked for his weapon, which had been confiscated at Sigmund’s sincere request.

As Sigmund said, there is no time.

If they were people from Seonghwangcheong, they would definitely be Heresy Inquisitors.

Even if it’s because of Sepia, Sigmund will do his best to stop them, but…

Sigmund is strong, but since he hasn’t taken the Inquisitor route, you can’t be at ease.

Dio hurried out of the prison.

The group of soldiers who occupied the barracks in Rivernos were not ordinary soldiers, nor were they private soldiers from Livernos.

The reason why they were able to demonstrate armed force within the city even though they did not belong to River North could be seen from the flag they raised.

A blue flag with Luna’s moon engraved on it.

They were a group dispatched directly from Luna’s Holy Emperor’s Office with the sole purpose of eradicating heresy.

They soon gathered in front of the knights’ mansion.

“Listen! “In the name of the benevolent moon, I will conduct an investigation throughout Rivernos.”

Among the paladins standing neatly, one of Luna’s priests spoke on their behalf.

However, the drivers did not get out of the way, citing the leader’s permission as the reason.

As a result of this, a scuffle broke out, and someone opened their mouth.

“Move.”

The person who uttered an insult roughly pushed the bride away and kicked the knight who was blocking his path in the abdomen.

puck!

“Keuuk!”

“What are you doing? “I won’t forgive any more rudeness than this, even if it comes from Seonghwangcheong!”

“Forgiveness?”

The one who stepped forward took off his helmet to stop the other enraged knights by putting his hand on the scabbard.

Fiery red hair flowed out, revealing a woman’s face with a cynical smile.
