Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 37

Episode 37

The woman’s outfit was the same style of armor as that of the Holy Knight, but unlike them, she had a red cape.

Luna’s five swords.

An interrogator whose name means crazy, violent and cruel.

Heretic Questioner Scarlett.

The Rivernos knights swallowed their saliva at the dangerous scent she gave off.

“Ha… How dare you stand in the way of the saint’s representative and say the word ‘forgiveness’? Forgiveness is a word we judge and act upon.”

Scarlett’s threats silenced all the knights.

Even the knights of Rivernos could not hastily block the existence of the Heresy Inquisitor who was capable of summary judgment.

“But… it is strictly prohibited to investigate the knights’ homes without permission from the lord and leader…” “Even

if I tell you this, you won’t understand. Am I crazy? Does Rivernos elect deaf people as knights?”

Although she felt more intimidated than at first, Scarlett still scratched her head at the Rivernos knights who seemed to have no intention of getting out of the way.

The Rivernos knights who valued honor blushed at her insulting remarks.

“What did you say just now? No matter how noble a person is, insulting a knight is…”

Ping –

Scarlett’s short sword cuts through the wind.

No one present dared to see or notice the trajectory of Scarlett’s weapon.

The red-colored blade was beautifully curved, and bright red blood spurted out like a fountain from the knight’s neck where the blade passed.

“Kruk-”

The knight grabbed her neck and looked at Scarlett with disbelieving eyes.

He had no idea that he would swing his weapon without warning in the middle of the Rivernos knights’ garrison, with all the knights watching.

“Gagging.”

“How dare you!”

The knights of Rivernos took Scarlet’s strike as a declaration of war and drew their weapons.

However, Scarlett, who was still responding cynically to the knights’ increasingly harsh reactions, relaxed her arms holding her sword and raised her shoulders.

“aha? As an inquisitor, I only punished him. “Do you still think I’m joking?”

Scarlett wiped the blood off the tip of the knife and glanced at the crowd once again.

“All I want is two people. A person called the deputy commander’s younger sister and a person from the Eastern Continent next to her. It is said that it can be easily resolved if only their personal information is handed over. But if you refuse even if I say this…”

Scarlett’s smile is so creepy that it gives you goosebumps.

“We will carry out the execution ceremony.”

The knights all fell silent as Scarlet continued speaking softly.

The knights were silent.

It doesn’t matter if you’re from the East Continent, but if you don’t hand over the vice-captain’s younger sister, the entire order of knights could die right here.

The optical interrogator remained like that.

Among the knights who dared not challenge her optics, only one person shouted.

“stop!”

“Vice-captain!”

After receiving the report, Sigmund came out in a hurry and everyone’s eyes turned to him.

“No one should move without my orders!”

He calmed the Rivernos knights, who were enraged by Scarlett’s attack, with just one word.

“aha?”

Sigmund, whom I had only heard about in words.

Scarlett looked at Sigmund with interest as the Livernos Knights’ vitality revived just by his appearance.

Sigmund, who was not paying attention to Scarlett’s gaze, opened his mouth as he looked at the knight’s wounds inflicted by her.

“Hurry and evacuate.”

“yes!”

Only after sending away the wounded knight did Sigmund turn to face Scarlett, who was the first to open her mouth to him.

“okay. The rumored knight is you? “You said you were actually leading the knights, right?”

“The leader is away. “Right now, I’m just acting as an assistant manager.”

In fact, Scarlett’s words were close to the truth, as the Commander of the Rivernos Knights was about to retire, but due to Sigmund’s personality, he denied her words.

“I was told that the inquisitors were to do justice and administer justice. But why did you harm the knight of Rivernos?”

“Don’t you know that your punishment was decided from the moment you blocked my path?”

Scarlett responds shamelessly to Sigmund’s calmly asked question.

The Rivernos knights were angry at her attitude.

“Such unreasonableness!”

“Is it correct to say that it is absurd to judge God while standing on his back?”

“Not only did they insult us, but they brandished their weapons first!”

“Everyone stop.”

Sigmund once again blocked his angry subordinates.

It’s not that we don’t understand them, but we must not forget that if we confront the Heretic Questioner, we may face even greater danger.

However, if you give way, it will only be a matter of time before Sephia is captured.

Here, we had to somehow pass the time through conversation.

“I clearly permitted the church’s intervention after the Knights Templar confirmed the facts. “Nevertheless, if you are going to enforce it by force, wouldn’t the first step be to talk through me?”

“It’s obvious you’re hiding something.”

“I’m not trying to hide it. The emergence of demons happened here in Rivernos. However, I am also interrogating the suspect because I cannot accurately identify the traces. “Once the interrogation is over, I will immediately hand over my body to the interrogator.”

“okay? Even if one of them is your sister?”

At Sigmund’s words, Scarlett opened her mouth with an alluring smile, as if she found the current conversation interesting.

Although it happened just yesterday, Sigmund paused at the fact that Luna came to him knowing a lot.

But since I couldn’t reveal my inner thoughts here, I opened my mouth calmly.

“…My sister is an unrelated victim. However, if Luna wants me to, I will be willing to be interrogated, but not right now. “Her mind and body are unstable, and the priority is for the Knights to hear her story after she calms down.”

“Oh really? “Everyone has their own positions and procedures, right?”

Scarlett tapped the blade of the shortsword on her shoulder and turned her back.

‘Are you convinced?’

The moment when Sigmund was about to breathe a sigh of relief at Scarlett’s unexpectedly easy behavior of retreating.

“But…”

Scarlett mutters, with her back turned.

“What if I don’t want to wait?”

“!!”

Let’s go!

Scarlett, who clearly had her back turned, had no time to attack.

However, Scarlett’s new form disappeared in an instant, leaving behind an afterimage, and her dagger, whose sword body was shining red, grazed Sigmund’s cheek.

“Vice-captain!”

Pot!

“It seems the rumors weren’t completely false.”

Scarlett’s eyes lit up at Sigmund, who had avoided her attack by moving his head in that brief moment.

Despite the surprise action and Scarlett’s transcendent speed, Sigmund simply let go of the attack and took a slight step back, widening the distance between her and her.

If he was skilled enough to easily dodge his attack, he would have been able to counterattack…

Scarlett looked curiously at Sigmund, who still did not raise his weapon.

It has not been the case that there have been people who dislike what the interrogators do.

If you try to suppress it by force like this, it usually resists or bites like a cornered rat.

However, his reaction was a fresh reaction I had never seen before.

Truly an article among articles.

It was greater than what I had heard in words.

‘There is an exact central point…’

Scarlett felt even more interested in Sigmund.

There was nothing special about Sigmund’s actions so far.

However, Scarlett felt with her whole body that despite his uneventful actions, the infinite trust of the knights who followed him was anything but ordinary.

‘The arrogant knights who raised their heads stiffly in front of me. They were all the same in the end.’

All of them prioritized honor according to their beliefs, but none of them adhered to this even before death.

In front of Scarlett’s ‘sadism’, everyone just crawled on the floor and begged for their lives.

However, even though their honor was tarnished, the knights of Rivernos followed Sigmund’s orders as their top priority.

What’s different?

Can this man also maintain his honor in the face of death?

There was no reason for Scarlett’s curiosity not to be piqued.

“You were given a title despite being from a slum, right? okay. “It’s as great as the rumors say.”

“That’s too much praise. These abilities are insignificant compared to the sharpness of the Interrogator. “She truly deserves the nickname ‘Goddess’ Red Rose.’”

“To be gentlemanly? “If you knew me, you would know that I have a better nickname than Rose.”

Scarlett smiled at her conversation with Sigmund.

However, everyone here sensed that her laughter contained the violence and cruelty that represented her.

The nickname ‘Red Rose’ is just a word packaged to look good.

It is a term referring to her beautiful appearance that makes one have no choice but to look back… but

the word ‘red’ that decorates the front also means that only blood will remain where she passed.

Scarlett herself knew that fact, so she noticed that there was a bone in Sigmund’s polite words.

“Being humble about your skills means you’re ignoring me, right?”

“That can’t be right.”

Contrary to his words, Sigmund still seems to have no intention of taking out his weapon.

At this, Scarlett stopped fake laughing and kicked the ground.

Scarlett’s sharply stretched out sword rushed towards Sigmund’s neck.

Sigmund struck away Scarlett’s outstretched arm and let her attack go.

However, unlike the first surprise attack, Scarlett’s attack, which missed, led to the next link.

Sigh –

Scarlett put her hand on the mace that was tied to her waist, and before Sigmund even realized it, the chain of the mace wrapped around his arm.

The sharp protrusions attached to the iron weight dug into Sigmund’s skin, but Scarlett’s intention was to block Sigmund’s movements.

puck!

Scarlett’s subsequent high kick hit Sigmund’s head.

“Tsk!”

It’s not a simple hit.

Scarlett’s physical blow, which was imbued with the power of divine power like the knights’ auror, was an attack that even most knights could not withstand.

thud!

The weight of Scarlett’s feet pressed down on Sigmund’s entire body, causing his knees to fall to the ground.

Even though Sigmund is considered one of the strongest knights, it is absurd to face the interrogator without even drawing a weapon.

However, Sigmund did not provoke Scarlett by belittling her.

‘Rather, the more rampant he is, the better. I do my best with my body and give Sephia time to leave.’

However, Scarlett, the Heretic Questioner, was not an easy opponent to engage in psychological warfare with.

Scarlett, who sensed something strange in Sigmund’s intentions, who was only thinking about holding on strong, stopped attacking and frowned.

Scarlett is a sadistic character who feels happier the more her opponent resists.

However, even though the other person had the strength to resist, he still did not respond properly, so he seemed to have lost interest and took a step back.

“If you don’t plan on resisting, why are you taking your time? “You’d better stop making lame excuses.”

“I’m just cautious because I don’t know how the church heard the story and came to visit me.”

“The explosion and demon energy filled with heterogeneous power. Would you have felt it as much as you? I looked through the records and found that you and your sister were always involved in such explosions. Then…the Magi must be from the East Continent, right? Ahaha.”

Scarlett did not storm in as irresponsibly as the knights protested.

The pursuit of a mercenary named ‘Monte’ in the capacity of an inquisitor and given by the highest authority in the church.

And in order to personally confirm the evil energy observed in River North, he followed the ‘legitimate’ procedure and came to visit.

‘There is no way such an extreme investigation would proceed simply because of something that happened yesterday.’

Sigmund thought.

It was noon yesterday when traces of demons appeared in River North.

However, Scarlett had already entered Rivernos before any traces of the demons were discovered.

In other words, the reason the Heretic Questioner came to Rivernos was not related to demons.

“Isn’t what the church wants most now is a mercenary named Monte?”

Sigmund’s confident words.

Scarlett twitched her eyebrows at this.
