Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 68
Episode 68
Dio, who came through the portal created by Kalphael, looked around.
‘I could clearly see the appearance of demonic beasts.’
Dio recalled the demons he had seen through the portal in the usurper’s room.
I entered the portal with the intention of going straight into battle.
What welcomed him was only an infinitely peaceful green meadow.
‘Did Kalphael make a mistake?’ A
stream
with clear water flowing.
Small fish were swimming freely there.
What about a field with a gentle wind blowing?
Butterflies were dancing on the flowers of harmonious colors.
A peaceful space similar to but different from Solari’s flower garden.
Since the existence of a demonic beast was completely out of place in a place like this, Dio wondered if Kalphael had made a mistake.
“How is it? “Isn’t it truly idyllic?”
Dio turned around when he heard Kalfael’s voice coming from behind him.
Kalphael and Crassus, who had followed Dio, were seen there.
‘You came together? Then they say it wasn’t a mistake.’
Dio quickly looked at the expressions of Kalphael and Crassus.
Kalfael still doesn’t know what’s going on, and Crassus closes his eyes as if he’s lost in some memory.
Dio looked at the surrounding scenery once again.
Diririn~
Kalphael opened his mouth while playing the lute to Dio, who was trying to understand the purpose of sending him here.
“Do you know where this place is?”
“well.”
Although Dio had been all over the order board, this was his first time seeing the current location.
“Leavitt.”
“yes?”
Kalfael took his eyes off Dio and let out a voice full of longing.
“A thousand years ago. A place called paradise in times of peace.”
Dirring –
Like Crassus, Kalphael, who was filled with sentimentality, began to play a beautiful melody on his lute.
“This is the most beautiful place on the continent, no, it is called paradise on earth. “It’s Leavitt.”
‘Leavitt? Are you really talking about the Leavitt Swamp?’
Kalfael’s explanation reminded Dio of the Libit Swamp in his memories.
However, unlike this place, it was a place where people competed for first or second place in the order board with terrible scenery.
“Of course, it has now been transformed into a terrible place due to the aftermath of the Holy Demon War.”
Kalphael’s explanation continued, resolving Dio’s questions.
“Even though it is an illusion created by my magic, we want to remember that time at least in this way.”
‘So what should I do?’
I asked him to train me and he said he would introduce me to a memorable place?
Dio, who still couldn’t understand Kalphael’s intentions, thought.
However, I wonder if he doesn’t know what Dio is thinking, or if he knows and does it on purpose.
Kalfael continued speaking excitedly.
“At that time, our sun and moon believers gathered together and held a festival. Pray, sing…”
“Leave the small talk there. “Kalfael.”
Did Crassus at least understand Dio’s feelings?
Crassus interrupted Kalphael instead of saying what Dio wanted to say.
“Hehe, Mr. Crassus. Even if you say that, didn’t you miss this place more than anyone else?”
“gibberish. “I am not weak enough to be locked in the past.”
“I guess so.”
Kalfael stroked his hair as if he had expected that answer.
Then, as if feeling more comfortable, he stretched out and said.
“Are you ready?”
“So what?”
Dio grumbled at Kalphael, who was once again only saying what he wanted to say.
But this time too, Dio could not hear Kalphael’s answer.
Duung –
The lute vibrated with a low, deep note.
And Kalfael’s face as he played it also turned serious.
Wooooow –
Leavitt, who was called paradise.
The shell of the paradise that remained as a memory of the past began to peel away.
As if the plating was peeling off.
The dancing butterflies turned into powder, and the stream with clear water dried up in an instant.
All plants, including trees, rotted and crumbled, and the wide field instantly became a sea of fire.
And finally, a swamp that is soggy and unpleasant to look at.
‘Leavitt’s Swamp!’
The world changed by Kalphael’s magic matched the place Dio had imagined.
As the beautiful and peaceful landscape crumbled, Leavitt’s true appearance hidden within it was revealed.
‘Right. This was the space I saw beyond the portal.’
Dio swallowed his saliva and looked around his surroundings.
“We didn’t create Leavitt out of thin air.”
Crassus opened his mouth to Dio.
“The paradise we knew no longer exists. Now Leavitt is the devil’s lair. Gaining experience here will be of great help to you.”
Dio nodded at Crassus’ explanation.
“All right. “Where are the enemies?”
At Dio’s words, Crassus looked at Kalphael and nodded, giving a signal.
“Okay then, shall we go?”
Pajijik-
Intense sparks flew out from Kalfael’s hands.
Blah blah blah –
Ding –
The heavy melody returns once again.
Kalphael’s illusionary magic unfolded in this portal and began to draw out Rivit.
The ground around Dio begins to crack.
thud! thud!
-Coooooooo!
Twin-headed ogres and trolls began to appear from the cracked earth with a huge roar.
Monsters didn’t just come up from under the ground.
Let’s go!
Cracks begin to appear in the empty space where there was nothing.
Clink!
-Koooooo!
As if a glass window was broken, a Minotaur came out of it, wielding a halberd that was twice as big as Dio’s.
‘It seems a bit bigger than the monsters I’ve seen?’
Dio looked at the monster confronting him and made an evaluation.
They seemed like monsters from a thousand years ago that Dio had never experienced.
However, it was possible to guess the level.
Twinhead Ogre and Troll are mid to late level 100.
Minotaur is early level 200.
Overall, they are monsters that are not at Dio’s level, but slightly higher level than Dio.
Dio, who realized that the intention was to treat him harshly, opened his mouth.
“Can we fight?”
“okay. The key to this battle will depend on how you use the power of the sun. “Because they are powerless before the sun.”
“Good for you.”
Dio took out his sword.
‘Should I have brought a wider variety of weapons?’
A Silver Arming Sword that is disappointing for level 200 Dio.
However, because Dio suddenly raised a lot of levels, he was unable to bring a level 200 weapon.
There were no good weapons in Estellum’s warehouse to begin with.
‘Still, it’ll be okay if the new skill is compatible with them.’
Dio stood in place and jumped lightly to warm himself up.
-Coooooo!
Without even having time to warm up, one of the trolls struck Dio with all his might with the iron club he was holding.
Quang!
The troll in front of him might be stronger than the trolls Dio knew, but even taking that into account, it was difficult for him to keep up with Dio’s speed.
Dio
easily dodged the troll’s beating and jumped up into the sky, swinging his sword at the troll’s head.
Push!
The troll’s head was literally evaporated by a forgotten sword technique imbued with the power of the sun.
‘I’m serious?’
Crassus’ words about being helpless against the power of the sun were true.
As with most games, if the order board has an advantage in compatibility, its power is amplified several times.
[245231 experience points were obtained.]
Dio’s eyes lit up at the system notification window that appeared at the same time as the troll fell.
‘Right. ‘Are monsters more like summons than mere illusions?’
So, you will gain experience like this.
Above all, the amount of experience gained was significant.
With this level of experience, you can quickly level up by catching just a few.
-Coooooooo!
‘Is this complete bullshit?’
* * *
Crassus watched Dio’s movements carefully as he slaughtered the monsters created by Kalphael.
‘There’s something strange about that guy.’
The key to the sun should not be harmed or killed, so a sparring match was held at a certain level…
If Crassus felt Dio, he thought that the demons summoned by Kalphael were sufficiently threatening.
‘Did I estimate my strength wrong? No, that guy is getting stronger right now.’
As Dio defeated monsters one after another, a brilliant light occasionally erupted.
‘I can feel the energy of the goddess. As if the sun was protecting him.’
Crassus, who had no way of knowing that this phenomenon was a level-up effect caused by the Sun’s Blessing trait, stuck out his tongue.
Although the Key of the Sun was growing stronger, it was very different from Crassus’s intentions.
I expected to be able to freely use the power of the sun and become accustomed to actual combat, just like when Sepia realized it… but
this is no different from massacre.
Crassus, blinded by his experience, approached the rampaging Dio and called out to him.
“for a moment.”
“yes? “I’m busy right now.”
“…try wearing this.”
“yes?”
Dio caught the item that looked like a bracelet or shackles thrown by Crassus and frowned.
“You are now oppressing your enemies with great strength. “If you wear these shackles, you will not be able to use the power of the sun as you wish.”
“…All right.”
Crassus’s intention was to realize how to fight flexibly and effectively with minimal force.
Dio, whether he knew this or not, without saying anything, put the shackles that Crassus had given him on his arms.
“Then keep going…”
“Coooooooo!”
The moment Crassus tells him to continue, the twin-headed ogre rushes at Dio.
The guy raised a large flail hammer and tried to hit Dio’s head with it.
however.
Paang!
As Dio’s sword struck away the flail in an instant, the Ogre lost his balance and his posture was disturbed.
“island.”
Boom!
Afterwards, the forgotten sword technique [Island] is launched from Dio’s sword.
Kwagwagwagwa-
“Kuuuuuuu!”
Due to its incredible power, the Twin Head Ogre’s upper body disappeared without a trace.
‘How on earth?’
Crassus’s mouth dropped open at the absurd sight.
The guy was obviously wearing shackles.
Didn’t you see it right before your eyes?
Literally ‘shackles’.
Obviously, Dio wearing shackles will have a harder time feeling the power of the sun than usual.
Because it was made that way in the first place.
However, Dio’s actions immediately shattered Crassus’ expectations.
No matter how key it is, does it mean that you immediately adapted to the suppressed power?
Diri-ring~
The sound of Kalfael playing could be heard from next to him, but it did not reach Crassus’s ears right now.
‘Is this possible?’
Crassus was busy thinking as he watched Dio demonstrating his abilities right before his eyes.
‘Why did the key appear after a thousand years? If only someone with this level of ability had helped us back then…’
Crassus questioned the sudden thought that occurred to him.
What was Solari thinking?
The day a thousand years ago when the sun was defeated and those who followed her lost everything.
The believers wandered around looking for their own way to survive.
Crassus himself accepted the fate of destroying the World Tree and continued his lonely fight.
‘why?’
Why didn’t Solari say anything then?
Did you think it would be a waste to use the grace given to that key on us?
Crassus said to Dio, who also had doubts about Solari in Dio.
“Kalfael. “Prepare as the strongest one.”
“Hehe, let’s do that. “Are you sure Mr. Crassus ordered you to do this?”
Kalphael strummed his lute as if he had been waiting for Crassus’ cold words.
Diririririn-
Nidhogg.
Why did the sun goddess give the key to Nidhogg?
And did he obediently hand it over to me?
The great cause of carrying on the will of the World Tree must be Crassus himself.
Why did the sun god give the key…
something was strange.
Didn’t you realize that Solari did not abandon the World Tree and the Elves from the holiness that Dio showed?
The key is key to completing the great work of the seven stars.
Wasn’t the reason they were called here because Crassus recognized Dio as the key and God’s representative?
Why did I feel emotions that I had thought about thoroughly and made a decision to sort out…?
Deering-
Crassus was then able to hear Kalphael’s performance clearly in his ears.
“you you?”
Grinning –
Crassus realized as he looked at Kalphael smiling at him.
That I fell victim to his delirium spell.
“Stop right now!”
“Oh, it’s already too late.”
Pajjijijik-
A dazzling beam of light appeared behind Kalfael.
The beam of light moved as if drawing a line in the air, and the shape it created was in the shape of a six-pointed star.
Uuuuung –
Diririn~
The completed magic circle began to tremble like an aspen tree in response to Kalfael’s performance.
Suddenly,
Kalfael’s performance stopped for a moment. And the trembling magic circle also stopped.
Huh-
The magic circle drawn in the air instantly headed towards Dio.
“Is this a new experience?”
However, Dio, who did not know that it was Kalphael’s plan, stood in front of the magic circle without any worries.
