Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 55
Episode 55
: A collapsing temple.
In the center of the dust, a woman with brilliant silver hair prayed.
“Goddess, I offer myself.”
When the woman opened her closed eyes, golden eyes as bright as the sunlight sparkled.
“Please send a hero in the future when this bondage returns.”
* * *
“Heo-eok.”
Dio woke up drenched in sweat.
“Dio!”
“Are you coming to your senses?”
“How long have I been lying down?”
“It took a full day and a half.”
In response to Dio’s question, Dio was only then able to see the dark outside through the window.
‘…I didn’t faint for that long.’
When Dio came back to his senses, he seemed to have had an important dream, but he couldn’t easily recall the blurred memories, so he massaged his throbbing head.
“Dio, are you okay?
In response to Sepia’s question, Dio was able to see Sephia looking at him with concern, and Schuwald with a happy expression on his face.
“Congratulations. You understand the power of the sun. But it was too much. You must learn to control your strength. Otherwise, your life will not be able to withstand the heat of the sun and will burn up.”
“Hehe…don’t worry about that. Now that I know the principles, I am confident in building my skills.”
Dio responded to Schuwald’s words by massaging his sore shoulders.
He wasn’t confident for no reason.
Dio’s spirit of experimentation, which has continued since the Order Board era, was famous even among old people.
“Are you already thinking about running just because you started walking? “Once again, the power of the sun is not something that even your extraordinary mind can easily understand.”
Schuwald gave advice to Dio, who was recalling his experience on the order board again.
“…I’ll keep that in mind.”
After experiencing the fact that Schuwald’s teachings were more helpful than Orderpan’s knowledge in awakening the power of the sun, I could not ignore his words.
However, the power of the sun is the power of the sun, and the system tells D.O. the path he should take, so he cannot completely rule out the idea.
“I will continue to listen carefully to Mr. Schuwald’s teachings. However, as promised, I would like to hear about the past.”
Schuwald’s promise that if he realizes the power of the sun, he will tell him what happened a thousand years ago.
The reason Dio ran so far was to find out the secret.
“Is it still not enough?”
“Huh, no. It’s been proven well that you are the key. ah! I should first explain what the key is. That’s right…”
Dio, who felt like he could finally proceed with the quest after meeting Ludens, listened.
However, Schuwald’s expression suddenly changed as he suddenly stopped talking, and Dio, who noticed something strange, called Schuwald over.
“Elderly?”
“….”
Schuwald did not say anything despite Dio’s call and stood up as if he was being chased by something.
“Stay here. Roberto!”
Schuwald spoke to Dio and Sephia who were sitting on the bed and then called Roberto.
“master? “What’s going on?”
“Schwalt! “I used the essence of flame and applied it to shadow magic!”
Eveline and Roberto, who were in the living room, each opened their mouths to Schuwald for different reasons.
But Schuwald seemed to have no time to answer their questions.
“Everyone please stay inside the room.”
“yes?”
“hurry!”
“Yes, yes!”
Eveline and Roberto were startled by Schuwald’s heightened voice, which they had never heard before.
The moment they moved towards the room without saying anything more due to Schuwald’s serious mood.
There was a knocking sound that rang through the cabin.
-thud. thud.
“Who is this late at night…? “You didn’t feel it coming?”
Roberto could not help but be surprised by the uninvited visit.
This was because even though I had sensitive senses, I had no idea that someone was approaching.
How on earth did this uninvited guest come to this place located in the middle of Kalech Forest in the middle of the night?
Questions about the uninvited guest filled Roberto’s mind, but Schuwald’s shout pushed them away.
“Avoid everyone!”
Quang!
With a thunderous sound, the door of the cabin flew away.
It’s not just the door.
The entire wall of the cabin, including the door, collapsed, scattering debris.
“Aaaah!”
“What what?”
Ibelin and Roberto were almost caught up in the aftermath that seemed to shake the entire cabin, but thanks to Schuwald who blocked their path, they were not seriously injured.
“Hahaha! “I thought it was an empty cabin. Please excuse me.”
Anyone can see that he is an uninvited guest who forced his way in, but shows up with a lot of jokes.
Galletto, who was chasing rumors about Estellum, was able to discover a secret passage after hearing that Dio and his party had visited the old castle.
He wandered for a while after passing the secret passage, but was able to find the cabin by following the suspicious energy felt throughout Kalekh Forest.
“Nice to meet you. My name is Galetto. “Are you the owner of this place?”
Galletto, who had a large physique, opened his mouth as he entered the cabin with the collapsed entrance.
‘Galetto? ‘How is that guy here?’
Dio, who was watching the situation through a crack in the door, could not help but be surprised by the commotion that shook the entire building.
Luna’s five swords, Galeto Houndstooth.
Unlike other Heresy Questioners, he was not a person who was very passionate about punishing heretics.
Maybe that’s why, even though he belonged to Luna, his religious beliefs were not that high.
Galeto, known as a battle fanatic or Gwonseong, believed in his fists more than his god Luna.
‘The reason Galleto became an Inquisitor was because he wanted to fight against strong people called heretics.’
Dio recalled information about Galletto and began to think about why he appeared here.
The person Luna is pursuing, Monte, is not strong enough to interest Galletto.
The level of strength shown to them would only be at the level of an A-class mercenary…
“What are you doing, bastard?”
Dio came to his senses when he heard Evelyn’s angry voice.
This is dangerous.
Galletto’s visit is not expected to be kind.
This is not an enemy that Dio’s group can do anything about right now.
“Roberto. “Please stay in the room with Evelyn.”
“But…”
“Come on!”
Fortunately, Dio was not the only one who noticed Galletto’s strength, and Schuwald stopped Evelyn who was about to step forward and walked forward.
“What brings a foreigner here? As you can see, I am an herbalist. “If you need any herbs, come back tomorrow.”
Schuwald said, pointing to a large pile of herbs on one side of the messy cabin.
“Hahaha!”
Galletto laughed heartily, wondering what was so funny about Schuwald’s words.
“okay. Herbalist inspiration. Unfortunately, you don’t need any herbs. “I’m just looking for someone.”
Galetto cracked his knuckles and said, Dio’s heart sank at his words.
“But…I feel a strange energy here. “Not only from you, but also from those hiding kids.”
‘this.’
Dio gritted his teeth at the fact that Galletto had already noticed his and Sepia’s presence hidden in the room.
Since it seems difficult to avoid friction with the opponent, there is no choice but to fight.
Dio braced himself, expecting Galetto to attack him.
But for some reason, Galletto’s gaze turned to Schuwald again.
“But I’m not interested in little kids. “There’s something even more amazing right in front of you, but you can’t look away.”
Pot!
The new model of Galletto approached Schuwald in an instant.
“Tsk!”
Schuwald was unable to avoid Galetto’s outstretched arm due to his incredible speed that did not match his huge body.
Galletto, holding Schuwald by the neck and lifting him up, uttered meaningful words.
“Hahaha! Old man. “Did you think that if you imitated someone, I would pretend not to know you?”
“How dare you, an insignificant human!”
Roberto, enraged at the sight of Schuwald being captured, fearlessly rushed at Galletto.
However, there was no way that Galletto, who had the strength and speed that even Schuwald could not react to, could be defeated by a vampire who only had good sense.
puck!
“Gagging!”
Quang!
Roberto was thrown into the fireplace by Galletto’s light kick.
“You are later.”
Galletto muttered, leaving behind Roberto, who seemed to have lost his mind.
“Damn you! “You can’t let go of Mr. Schuwald right now!?”
Evelyn, unable to see, stepped forward and waved her staff to move the shadows around her.
“Shadow Arrow!”
Liquid –
A shadow that took the shape of an arrow was quickly shot towards Galeto.
Pop!
However, Galletto raised his arm and easily caught the shadow arrow.
Pajijik –
The shadow arrow held in Galeto’s hand evaporated in an instant with black smoke rising.
Evelyn shouted in disbelief.
“That’s ridiculous!”
“Vampires and witches… I didn’t want to do all that trouble after coming here. hmm?”
Galletto, who had figured out the identity of Eveline and Roberto at once, opened his eyes round at the energy emitted by Schuwald, who was holding him.
Suddenly-
“Oh? okay. “You have to do at least this much.”
Galletto smiled as if he knew it would happen at Schuwald’s force pushing his fingers away.
“Keuuuuuuuu!”
As Schuwald’s strength gradually increased, Galetto’s grip on his neck loosened.
However, Galletto was not the type to just watch Schuwald trying to escape from his grasp.
Took!
Galletto grabbed Schuwald’s upper body with his free hand and threw him away.
Quang!
“Cough!”
Schuwald collapsed the wall of the main room where Dio and Sepia were hiding and rolled on the floor.
“Schwalt!”
Sephia shouted in surprise at Schuwald, who was coughing up blood, possibly due to the strong shock.
“One strength is fine.”
Galletto turned his wrist, which had been grabbed by Schuwald, and slowly stepped forward.
“D.I.O. Let’s escape together with everyone. “I will stop it as much as I can.”
Schuwald stood up from his seat to face the approaching Galetto and spoke hurriedly.
“Are you okay alone?”
“Don’t worry. “Even though I’m old, I won’t be defeated easily.”
Schuwald said as if telling Dio not to worry.
“Hurry up and move.”
“But…!”
Schuwald smiled kindly as if to reassure Sepia, who was full of worries, and walked in front of Galletto, who was waiting for him.
“Haha, are you planning on doing it right?”
“Isn’t this old man what you want? “Just let the kids go.”
“Sir, is that your last wish? There’s nothing I can’t do if it makes me happy. Hahaha!”
Galeto, very excited, rushed forward, clapping his fists together.
Quang!
A clash between two beings without any exploration.
The huge wave of power between the two spread out in all directions.
“Let’s do as the old man said and get out of the way! Evelyn! “Bring Roberto!”
“What about Mr. Schuwald?”
“Get out of here and think!”
At Dio’s words, Evelyn lifted up the unconscious Roberto with magic, and they quickly left the half-collapsed cabin.
Quagwagwagwang!
As Galletto and Schuwald’s fists clashed violently, a loud noise, like a bomb exploding, echoed around the area.
“Who on earth is that author?”
“Galetto. “It’s one of Luna’s five swords.”
“Are those people like that chasing us?”
Sephia thought that the power that Schuwald had shown so far was enormous.
Didn’t the restrained and hot power of the sun he showed truly show tremendous power?
However, Sepia’s expression hardened as she saw Galletto pushing Schuwald on an equal footing, even more so than him.
“Don’t worry Sepia! “Schwalt will take care of those Luna guys!”
Even though she saw Galetto’s power right in front of her eyes, Evelyn spoke to Sepia with strong faith.
But Dio differed from Evelyn’s thoughts.
‘Schwalt is pushed. Definitely pushed. ‘I never thought the difference in power would be this big.’
It wasn’t that Dio thought Schuwald’s strength was weak.
However, considering the Witch of Balance, a member of the Seven Stars, it is true that Schuwald, who is currently struggling with Galletto, appears weak.
Quang!
Schwald fell to the floor despite blocking Galletto’s punch.
“Dangerous! “We have to help!”
“no. “If you go, you will die.”
Eveline threw away the unconscious Roberto and tried to run away, but Dio caught her.
“Are you sure we should run away by ourselves? “Let go of this!”
The immature Evelyn grabbed the hem of her clothes and struggled to get away from Dio, who would not let her go.
Unlike Evelyn, Sephia could not easily say that she wanted to help Schuwald.
Sepia is smart.
However, Sepia knows that Dio is a much smarter and more thorough person than she is.
From what I’ve seen so far, Dio doesn’t blindly engage in battles he has no chance of winning.
The most appropriate decision in the current situation would be for everyone to run away as Schuwald said while buying time.
I thought for sure he would…
“You guys stay here. I’m coming.”
Sepia’s eyes widened at Dio’s words.
Is he driven by emotion and trying to save Schuwald, who was a good teacher?
Sephia was suspicious when Dio told her why he saved her.
However, even though I realized that he only wanted to grow and trusted and followed him…
I couldn’t help but have doubts about his suspicious intentions in my heart.
‘No, don’t doubt it. As for what he does….’ Sepia
bit
her lip as she looked at Dio’s back as he approached Galetto.
‘Because there’s a reason for everything.’
