Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 45

Episode 45

Woong –

The blue light symbolizing mana flickered in Evelyn’s hand, and Dio watched silently from the side.

“how is it? “Do you feel something?”

“Well, I don’t know…”

Sepia became anxious at Evelyn’s words and tried to concentrate even more.

However, no matter how hard she tried, Evelyn comforted Sepia as if it was okay to see that she didn’t even feel any mana.

“There’s nothing to regret. “It would be surprising if you felt it right away.”

“Can’t I use magic without feeling mana?”

“of course. “Feeling mana is the starting point of magic.”

“Yes…”

“And even if you feel mana, it doesn’t mean you can use magic right away. “It takes a lot of practice.”

After Evelyn’s explanation, Sepia concentrated once again, but the results did not improve at all.

“You can stop. As expected, the power of the sun and magic seem to be separate issues.”

“Hmm…”

Evelyn put out her hand, and Sepia opened her eyes with regret.

“How many times can I help you get better?”

Dio asked Evelyn while looking at Sephia who looked regretful.

“I guess I can try. “There is a separate meditation method to awaken mana.”

“meditation? “How long does that take?”

“You don’t know that either. “If you are somewhat talented, you may see results in about a month.”

“That must be difficult.”

You can’t spend a month on something you’re not sure about.

Dio decided to give up on teaching Sephia magic.

“All business is done. sepia. “I’ll just go… okay?”

After finishing his conversation with Evelyn, Dio was speechless the moment he looked at Sepia.

Sepia was disappointed with the results of her talent.

She recalled the small flame Evelyn had created.

It seemed very simple at first glance…

Sepia raised her index finger as if Evelyn had simply summoned fire.

Assuming I felt mana, I just thought about it.

It was just that, but an unexpected and surprising result occurred.

Hwareuk –

A small ember rising.

“How?”

Evelyn could not close her mouth in shock at the incredible sight.

Was it a lie to say that I couldn’t feel mana?

No, even if that were the case, I’ve never seen anyone able to use magic right after feeling mana.

Didn’t it take even her, who was recognized by the Witch of Balance, a week to create a proper spark?

Evelyn’s surprise did not end here.

Fuhuaak –

The spark created by Sepia starts to grow bigger and bigger, and doesn’t an enormous amount of heat begin to fill the lab?

“Huh!”

“turn off! turn off!”

Dio and Evelyn retreated from the massive flames and shouted at Sepia.

“Well, how do I get rid of this?”

Evelyn could tell from Sepia’s stuttering words that it was true that she couldn’t feel mana.

If I felt Mana, I wouldn’t have done such a dangerous act.

“Aaaah! “My materials!”

Evelyn, who was in danger of burning the research journals placed around her, quickly waved her staff and shouted.

“Aqua Cage!”

A strong stream of water spewed out from Evelyn’s staff and swirled around Sephia.

The stream of water began to slowly subdue the flame, and Sephia clasped her fingers with her other hand to quell the losing flame.

Cheeeeeeeek –

The sound of water evaporating due to powerful flames filled the room.

Was it because of Evelyn’s quick action, or was it Sepia’s will to put out the fire?

Fortunately, the fire was completely extinguished, and Sepia was the only one left standing alone in the center of the lab.

“How can I use magic if I can’t feel mana?”

“It’s not magic, is it?”

Dio opened his mouth to Evelyn’s words, which he could not understand based on his common sense.

Could it be that the flame created by sepia is not magic, but the latent power of the sun?

However, Evelyn vehemently denied Dio’s objection and opened her mouth.

“No, that’s magic. “What I felt when the fire surged was definitely a wave of mana!”

Evelyn hurriedly ran to Sephia and started looking around her.

“Didn’t you feel the mana in the flame you used?”

“yes? Yes…just the warm heat….”

Sepia must have been soaked in Evelyn’s water attribute magic.

However, she was as soft as if she had been dried over a warm fire.

Evelyn, who noticed this, could not hide her excitement.

“Warm? “It was at a level where if I did something wrong, everything would be burned down… Is this the magic power of ‘ego’ that I only heard about?”

Sepia looked at Dio with an incomprehensible expression as Evelyn spoke excitedly.

“What happens if this happens? “Is the magic of the ego something you can’t teach me?”

“No, it’s actually easier for me to teach! If you know the theory, you can use any magic! “You can use magic even if you don’t feel mana!”

Dio nodded at Evelyn’s words, who could not hide her excitement.

‘Sepia’s abilities…maybe similar to the player’s.’

Use MP and use spells you know.

A simple way for players to use magic.

Maybe it has something to do with the pledge of liberation.

‘If that’s the case, you’ll eventually have to raise your level before you can use strong magic.’

If Dio’s thoughts were correct, there was a high probability that Sepia would be restricted in terms of level.

Just like a level 100 player cannot learn Hellfire.

‘Eveline’s level is 150. I think she can learn 2nd job advancement level magic.’

However, there is one problem that D.O realized late.

“How long does it take to learn everything about magic?”

“The study of magic is endless, so what’s the use of making conclusions? “It took me about half a year to learn just the basic theory from my teacher.”

“Half a year?”

“What can I say, that’s really fast! “I have to be talented enough to become the Witch of Balance’s disciple!”

Evelyn, infuriated by Dio’s words, shouted.

“I’m not interested in your talent. “The problem is time.”

“Why does time matter?”

“I have a lot of work to do. “I can’t leave Sephia here alone…”

Dio frowned, remembering the pledge of liberation.

However, Evelyn looked at Dio and opened her mouth as if asking what was the problem.

“Can’t I just follow along?”

“what?”

Dio made a bewildered expression at Evelyn’s unexpected suggestion.

“What about the research here?”

“There is someone here who has the power of the sun, so of course I should follow him!”

Evelyn speaks proudly, pointing to Sepia.

Well, it’s not that I couldn’t understand her choice.

‘It is true that the Witch of Balance trusts him. It would be a good idea for Evelyn to keep a close eye on Sepia, at least to help her teacher’s research.’

Dio recalled the past when he had a fierce battle with the Witch of Balance.

‘If you fight the Witch of Balance after defeating the Shadow Witch, you can face her sincere anger.’

It was clear that Evelyn’s joining would be helpful to Dio in many ways.

Anyway, Evelyn is a witch who has continued to research the power of the sun.

He could be seen as the best companion who could help Sepia in many ways, not just magic training.

“hmm.”

Dio stroked his chin and looked at Evelyn.

I thought about magic training based on the player’s standards, so I wasn’t concerned about the learning period.

Although it is clearly beneficial, accepting someone as a colleague is not an easy decision to make.

Because all the witches Dio has encountered so far were greedy and selfish.

Of course, we now know that Evelyn and her teacher are favorable to the power of the sun, but still, we cannot help but be cautious.

“It’s okay if I follow along and help. Nothing will ever disturb you! Moreover, although it is called a grand study, it is just observation and recording, so there is no harm to Sepia!”

Evelyn shouted confidently and appealed to herself.

Sepia smiled at her appearance, which did not show the slightest hint of darkness, and Dio turned his head and opened his mouth.

“What about you, Sepia?”

“I…”

Sephia smiled once again, looking at Evelyn, who was giving a pleading look in her eyes instead of answering Dio’s question.

“i look forward to. “Master.”

“Master Shi?”

Evelyn is startled by Sepia’s answer.

Is it an illusion that the dark circles around her eyes are instantly fading away?

Evelyn stuttered to the extent that it contrasted with the stoic personality she had shown earlier.

“Am I the teacher?”

“sure. You will learn a lot in the future. “You should call me Master.”

Is it because he was ruled by the Witch of Balance for 20 years?

Evelyn’s eyes, who never dreamed that the day would come when she would be called teacher, became bright.

“That’s right! I will teach you well. Huh, this is it. This is not the time for me to be like this. Are you going to leave right away? “I’ll get ready too.”

Evelyn has been trapped in this gloomy cave and has not been able to meet the right people.

The sadness that had been growing through my familiar over the slow progress of research is rising.

Those days are now goodbye.

If we were to say that we were going on an adventure following Sephia, who has the power of the sun, the Witch of Balance would certainly have reason to understand.

Evelyn began going through the piles of documents that had been burned by Sepia on the heart-pounding adventure she had dreamed of someday.

“I will help you too.”

Sephia stood up and Evelyn’s eyes, touched by the sight, turned red.

“are you okay! I just find what I need. okay. Would you like to go to my room with me? “The first books I received from my teacher are also there.”

A shadow witch who seemed infinitely lazy.

But right now, I was too busy moving that quickly.

‘It won’t be a big problem.’

An encounter with a shadow witch that I thought would be fortunate if I could just get a clue.

However, Dio, who unexpectedly had Shadow Witch Evelyn as his companion, assured that his strength would be strengthened anyway.

Because Dio knows well the skills of a level 150 witch.

After finishing his thoughts, Dio went to Evelyn’s room where she was packing her luggage.

“Take this and this too.”

“Do these books seem important too?”

“ah! A magic trick for frog transformation! These are books that a witch should always have with her. thank you.”

Dio looked at Evelyn and Sephia working hard to pack their bags.

Evelyn did not forget to bring not only the materials she had studied so far and books to educate Sepia, but also household tools.

“I’m good at cooking too. “I’ll make you stewed potatoes sometime.”

Sepia could only laugh awkwardly at the sight of Evelyn talking while stuffing a charred frying pan into her subspace pocket.

Afterwards, I was able to finish it to some extent only after gathering a broom and dozens of medicine bottles that seemed not to be just for cleaning purposes.

“Did you get everything?”

“huh! Ready! “If you go this way, you can leave right away.”

Evelyn, who exhaled vigorously at Dio’s words, led the way to the opening leading to the outside.

“How many holes did you make?”

“This is how I feel comfortable.”

Evelyn, giggling to herself at Dio’s words, took the lead.

Dio sighed as the shadow witch, who seemed quite tired, joined him.

“Then shall we go too?”

“yes.”

One way or another, the immediate joining of the powerful Shadow Witch is sure to be a good start for Dio.

However, you cannot let your guard down.

A journey to meet Ludens’ acquaintance and proceed with the main quest.

The road is an area where it is impossible to predict what dangers may lurk… but that’s okay.

‘Still, an explosion awaits in the Estel Room.’
