Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 46

Episode 46

A large round table was placed in the center of a windowless room where no outside light came in even though the ceiling was open.

A brazier was burning in the center of the round table, illuminating the surroundings instead of moonlight.

And on the seven chairs that seemed to each have their own owners, three shadows were swaying along the fire.

An angry voice was heard from a person whose appearance was obscured by darkness.

“Ludence. Are you sane? “If something like that happened, why didn’t you talk about it at the last meeting?”

A handsome man whose appearance was not clearly visible, but could be glimpsed through the silhouette.

He was angry about something.

“Ludens has always been like that.”

In response to the angry man’s words, another person spoke in a calm voice.

“This is not a matter that can be overlooked by saying it has always been like that!”

bang!

As the man, who seemed quite excited, hit the marble floor with his right foot, it seemed as if a huge anger was swirling around in the otherwise quiet temple.

It would not be an illusion that the intensity of the dim bonfire became stronger, as if representing that anger.

“Huh- so. “Where is the guy who has that power going?”

After a moment of silence, the man who had calmed his anger sighed and glared at the object of his anger.

“I told you to go to Estellum.”

The old gentleman continued speaking, paying no heed to the angry man.

Ludens, a vampire lord and one of the seven stars who serve the sun god.

He smiled faintly, remembering the forgotten swordsman he encountered last time.

“what? Are you sane? “It’s been over a thousand years since you finally showed up, but are you planning to kill me right away?”

“Calm down, Crassus.”

When the man called Crassus showed strong hostility to Ludens, another person who was not involved in their story spoke comfortingly.

“Calm down? Look at the empty seats now! Where is Falchetto? The ‘full moon’ is getting closer!”

Crassus, unable to bear it any longer, stood up and walked towards Ludens.

Rumbling –

As Crassus walked away, there was a violent thunder and lightning began to shine brightly in the surrounding area.

Crassus

‘s face was revealed, illuminated by a beam of light that illuminated the darkness.

His appearance was so beautiful that it rivaled that of the elves, a race of beauty.

In a way, that was natural.

Because Crassus was a dark elf, also called a fallen elf.

“If what you say is true, he must be the key to regaining the power of the sun. And yet, you are saying that you not only exposed them to the moon chasers, but also guided them to the graveyard of death?”

Crassus

raised his hand and shouted, and the throbbing lightning began to gather in his grasp like a lightning rod.

Quagwagwagwang!

Rather than causing any harm to Crassus, the strong lightning disappeared in an instant, leaving behind only a single figure.

At one point, a bow was in Crassus’ hand.

Crassus summoned Visaya, a legendary weapon said to wish for protection and victory, and aimed Visaya at Ludens.

However, despite the obviously imminent situation, Ludens was still sitting in his chair and just laughed to himself.

“Haha, if you really want to fight, just stop.”

Another person who couldn’t see the fight between Ludens and Crassus opened his mouth.

“Mr. Crassus. Think carefully. Fighting between the seven stars is strictly prohibited.”

“….”

With continued persuasion, Crassus reluctantly took Visaya, but he did not stop glaring at Ludens.

“Is this really what your sun means? Do not be ridiculous. The meaning of the sun I know is different. “I’m going to Estel Room.”

When Crassus announced his will, Ludens smiled as if telling him to do as he pleased.

Crassus, unable to understand Ludens’ intentions, became even more angry and turned his back.

I don’t have time to stay here like this.

If you make a mistake, the key chosen by the sun…

may face the fate of being eaten by a predator without being able to continue the sun’s will.

Estunia, located in the northern part of the continent.

Even though it is not the northernmost region with a harsh climate, the environment of Etunia must have been cold.

“Oh…is this supposed to be snow?”

Winter weather arrived early in the northern region.

Dio and his group, who were traveling up the mountain, were able to encounter snowflakes falling from the sky.

Evelyn looked at the night sky with her palms spread out as if in wonder.

“This is your first time seeing snow?”

“I’ve never been out of the West.”

“No matter what, if you go up a little bit from the cave you were in, wouldn’t you be able to see the snow easily?”

When Dio said that she couldn’t understand, Evelyn looked at him as if asking what he was talking about.

“How do you view beings called witches? “Any witches who carelessly entered the center were burned to death.”

“I see…”

“It would be difficult for a witch to travel all over the continent unless she was as powerful as you.”

Dio, convinced by Evelyn’s words, nodded.

‘Well, if you get caught by the Heretic Questioner, it won’t be a problem.’

Evelyn giggled as she touched the pile of snow piling up on her head to see if it was too cold, and Dio left her behind and looked at Sephia next to him.

“Haa, Dio, aren’t you cold?”

Sepia, who was wearing a heavy coat, put her hands together and blew on them as she spoke.

“It’s worth holding on to.”

After answering Sepia’s question, Dio looked around the cave he had just found.

“Luckily we can stop the wind. “Let’s camp here today.”

“yes. “I’ll make a fire.”

Sepia confidently stepped forward at Dio’s words, and soon she was able to easily make a fire by raking the branches around her.

Fire –

“It’s easy to start a fire now, isn’t it?”

As Sepia created a suitable spark, Evelyn came closer and waved her staff in the air.

Then, tree branches and other suitable firewood nearby began to gather following Evelyn’s hand gestures. A

bonfire

was created in an instant, and Sepia’s eyes lit up at Evelyn.

“Compared to my teacher, I still have a long way to go. “I also want to use mana freely like my teacher.”

“Hehe, this is nothing special. “You’ve become quite accustomed to mana control, so you’ll be able to handle it quickly.”

Evelyn, who was excited to be called “Master,” sat down next to Sepia and started talking about various things.

Dio, who was watching their magic class, recalled the journey of the past two weeks.

The biggest problem revealed to Sepia is that she cannot feel mana like ordinary wizards.

So, Evelyn explained witchcraft and suggested a solution, assuming that the power of the sun was affecting Sepia’s senses.

‘If you can’t feel mana, you have no choice but to assume you feel it yourself.’

The evaluation given to Evelyn by Dio, who was listening next to her, was that she was an ‘eccentric genius.’

Even Dio, who had no knowledge of magic, thought the idea of pretending to feel mana was nonsense.

However, as Evelyn burned her passion for education, saying that it was theoretically possible, Dio watched her actions in silence.

‘Mana can be thicker or lighter than the blood flowing in the body. Sometimes it’s warm and sometimes it’s cold.’

Evelyn explained her sense of mana to Sepia, and Sepia tried to imagine the sense of mana that Evelyn described.

At first there wasn’t much progress.

Dio, who was watching the process, suggested that they just try using magic and get used to it, but Evelyn insisted that they not interfere with her education.

No, does it make sense for sensations to be conveyed through words?

The moment you think:

What is this? Isn’t the flame created by sepia stable and controlled, unlike the first time when the intensity fluctuated erratically?

‘As expected, I was right! ‘Remember this feeling.’

When Sephia successfully demonstrated restrained magic, Evelyn was overjoyed as if it were her own work.

Is it Sepia’s talent or is the Shadow Witch’s theory correct?

Anyway, from then on, Sepia was able to use mana without any problems to create fire.

Dio was now lost in thought as he looked at Evelyn, who was teaching him the basics of magic of different attributes, and Sepia, who was listening to her.

‘The magic I’m learning now is ultimately intended to lay the foundation for using Sepia’s potential power. There is still no clue to the power presumed to be divine power.’

Dio began to seriously think about being an acquaintance of Ludens.

—————

[We discovered the existence of a forgotten believer who survived thousands of years ago. Find them and find out the history behind the forgotten swordsman.]

[Reward: Class 1st Awakening]

—————

Dio, who was reading the quest window once again, found Ludens in Estellum. It was not difficult to see that Chinwoo was also a forgotten believer.

‘Is it one of the seven stars that Evelyn spoke of? I don’t think it’s Pentagram like the Witch of Balance.’

Heavyweights such as Omangseong had separate designated garrisons.

Estellum was a city where level 150 players were based, and at least in the knowledge Dio remembered, it was an area unrelated to Pentacle Castle.

‘There is a high probability that he is a being who deceives everyone and lives in hiding like Ludens. In that case, the candidate…’

* * *

Dio left Evelyn and Sepia, who were snuggling in the blanket, and walked deep into the cave.

Dio went deep into the cave and fumbled with the wall that seemed to have no way to go any further. When

Dio discovered the hidden

device,

the blocking wall moved to reveal a space, and an item was seen lying there.

“good. good.”

The reason Dio camped here, not far from Estellum, was simple.

—————

[Elixir of Agility]

Grade: Rare

Classification: Potion

Effect: When taken, agility stat increases by 3.

Elixirs of the same level only have a one-time effect.

—————

The reason I went to the hideout of the bandits where Sepia was imprisoned was to find the elixir.

The elixir at that time was a unique grade and raised the stats by about 5, but this one was one level lower than rare and only increased the stats by 3.

However, even in order to recover the stats lost due to the oath of liberation, even one elixir could not be passed over.

‘The elixirs I obtained from River North to get here are three… are there four in total?’

Dio picked up a bottle filled with yellow liquid, opened the cap hesitantly, and drank it down in one gulp.

The values of the elixir he took on this journey were 6 strength stats, 3 intelligence, and 3 agility.

I only walked around a little bit and gained over 10 stat points.

“This is the best for now.”

After checking the stat window, Dio returned to where the group was, and Sepia, who had not yet fallen asleep, greeted him.

“Where have you been?”

“I checked inside for a moment.”

“It’s easy to do that with my search magic.”

At Dio’s words, Evelyn took out her wand and showed off her pride.

“Don’t have too much faith in magic.”

“That’s what people who don’t know how to use magic always say. “It’s not for nothing that they say that if your brain is bad, your body will suffer.”

Evelyn sneered at Dio’s advice, and Sephia tried to dissuade her.

“Dio, you know how to use magic too.”

“really? You know how to use magic, but you can’t teach sepia? “You don’t seem to understand any of my magic theory.”

“I believe in science.”

It was absurd to say that he believed in science at the point where he entered the game, but Dio still responded with some faith.

“science? “That thing that dwarves do?…Well, if it’s something like that, I can at least imitate it.”

Ignoring Evelyn’s giggling words, Dio opened the inventory.

Chrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr –

The numerous items that Dio had brought with him to prepare for Estellum spilled onto the floor, and Evelyn’s eyes widened at this sight.

“Can I use the subspace pouch? “I don’t think there are any separate artifacts?”

“This is magic made of 1 and 0.”

Dio’s sarcastic words continued towards Evelyn, who had no way of knowing the existence of the system.

Dio left her confused and handed Sepia a pile of silver arrows from his inventory.

“This?”

Sephia, who had received a lot of silver arrows, looked at Dio without understanding what was happening, and Dio asked her a question.

“We will arrive at Estellum tomorrow. “So what do we need?”

“I don’t know.”

Sephia, who didn’t know the answer, shook her head, and Dio smiled, holding up an arrow with a flashing silver arrowhead.

“What we need is silver. We also need silver of high purity.”
