Surviving With An Sss-Rank Inventory Chapter 94
Episode 94
: Moon Walker.
A secret organization that exists within the Luna Church.
Dio chose to deceive Telzia.
By using a group that operates secretly within the Luna Church.
“Why is Moonwalker here? I’ve never heard of such a story…”
Telzia stuttered, looking clearly embarrassed.
In response, Dio roughly pushed the chair she was tied to with his foot.
Grumble-
“Hi!”
“If you’ve never heard of it, you shouldn’t.”
In response to Dio’s overbearing tone of voice, Telzia’s confident attitude changed 180 degrees in an instant.
Telzia does not doubt that Dio is a moon walker, but only questions why the moon walker is here.
The reason was obvious.
‘A high-ranking inspector would know the oath used by moon walkers.’
we walk
Even if it’s on the back side of the moon.
A password used by moonwalkers and their oath.
Even within the Luna Church, only a few people knew about this.
And Dio was certain that Telzia was in that minority.
The basis for this could be easily found by observing a person named Telzia.
He knows the internal circumstances of the church simply because he is the inspector general of the holy kingdom of Atra.
However, not all inspectors know of the existence of moonwalkers.
However, among the inspectors, Telzia, who was dispatched as the person in charge, has the highest authority within the Luna Church.
Telzia’s position must not be low, judging from the news that she has joined Ates, the second son of Duke Bertio, whom she had only recently contacted.
‘And since I was given a sacred relic, I must have some level of trust.’
For these reasons, Dio judged that there was no way Telzia, who was presumed to be a leader, did not know about the existence of Moon Walker.
‘There’s a reason why I didn’t listen to Conrad, the leader of the Holy Knights of the Eastern Diocese.’
Although the clergy of the eastern diocese have been demoted, they cannot be treated carelessly.
After assessing Telzia’s rank, Dio immediately spoke of the Moon Walkers’ oath.
This oath is their own secret slogan, and the fact that they utter it proves that they are members of the Walkers.
You may wonder how a secret organization can impersonate itself with just one password, but obtaining Moon Walker’s password is by no means easy.
‘Only moon walkers can reveal this.’
Beings other than Moonwalkers cannot utter the password.
That kind of ‘oath’ exists.
We also know that only Moonwalker can say the oath, and Telzia can hear it but can never say it out loud.
‘Of course, I don’t have any oaths or anything like that.’
Dio grinned and laughed.
However, this method cannot be used for a long time.
In the first place, this is a method that only works for idiots like Telzia.
Telzia is a person that Dio does not remember.
Inferring from this, we can see that Telzia’s term as inspector general is short.
If you have been working as an inspector for a long time, you would have encountered Dio’s max level character.
Or, if he was promoted to a higher position, that would remain in Dio’s memory.
However, if there are no memories, it means that Telzia was stripped of her position or died young due to lack of ability.
If Telzia had five swords or the talent of an archbishop, impersonating Moon Walker would not have worked at all.
“Why am I hiding my identity? “Because of you, everything we’ve done to hide the heretics has been exposed.”
“That kind of thing.”
“still. The reason you moved means that my actions were secret…”
“That’s right. “I never even dreamed that Moon Walker would be here.”
Telzia spoke hurriedly at Dio’s words.
“Hmm… Anyway, there are kites that go with me, right? I’m digging them now. “Maybe there’s something bigger behind them.”
Dio had no intention of denying the report about the suspicious mercenaries who had joined Bertio’s second son.
That order must have been given by the saint herself, so if you deny it, your lie will be discovered in an instant.
To admit this, you had to sell your colleagues.
‘sorry. Eveline Roberto. Bear with it.’
Dio opened his mouth to Telzia, who was haggard from the pressure interview.
“Do you know how hard I tried to hide my divine power to deceive them? Besides, those heretics. “Like you said, they were researching a fake power that mimics moonlight.”
“Ah, so…!”
Telzia recalled something similar to the divine power used by Dio.
It was the power of the sun, but it was enough for Telzia to mistake it for the power of the Moon Walker, whose divine power had been suppressed as much as possible.
“Anyway, leave the heretics alone for now. “I have to keep pretending to be a teammate until we root them out.”
“Oh, I understand.”
Telzia, who had come to firmly believe that Dio was a moonwalker, nodded eagerly.
No, I made it so there could be no doubt.
If you go wrong while denying your boss, everything you have built up at a young age will collapse.
In any case, if you are this obedient, there is no subordinate that is quite convenient.
Well, from the perspective of the Luna Church, it was understandable that such a blindly loyal subordinate would be easy to manage and use.
“The problem is the warlocks. “I didn’t know they would show up either.”
“Is that so? But don’t you think those heretics and warlocks are part of the same group?”
“okay. The guys I’m taking with me now are quite heterogeneous. These are the people the saintess is keeping a close eye on. The problem is that they seem to be on bad terms with regular warlocks…”
Telzia grew restless as she watched the Moon Walker in front of her contemplating how to fix what had gone wrong.
Of course, Dio is just wondering how to lie.
“Anyway, I have no choice but to fight the warlocks coming to town now.”
“Still, taking down the wanted heretics is the top priority… Wouldn’t it be better to take them to the Holy Kingdom?”
Telzia cautiously expressed her opinion in response to Dio’s words.
At this, Dio sighed heavily and Telzia quickly shook her head, sensing that she had said something wrong.
“Oh no. I don’t mean to interfere with Mr. Walker’s work. “I still follow the saint’s orders…”
“Do you think the mission you have and the mission I have are the same? “This matter is bigger than you think.”
Dio grabbed Telzia’s shoulder and threatened her.
Telzia, who was frightened by this, nodded hurriedly.
“I’m sorry!”
“Pay attention to heresy and focus on fighting warlocks.”
“Oh, I understand.”
“Keep in mind. “You know that it’s not okay for me to reveal to you that I’m a Moonwalker, right?”
“Oh, I know. sorry. Please have mercy.”
Telzia’s face turned pale when Dio said that there was no way he would have revealed his identity if he hadn’t been a troll.
Excluding her closest associates, the only people who can have an audience with the saint are the five swords and the moonwalker.
If Walker reports this, Telzia’s life will not be guaranteed.
“don’t worry. “If you handle the warlock well, I will only give you credit for it.”
“Are you sure?”
“okay. And you think I’m only worried about ordinary warlocks? “The guy who’s coming this time…”
Dio slowly opened his mouth, looking into Telzia’s eyes, whose expression was changing every moment.
“He is a warlock of the 8th circle.”

“Force your battle lines! You there! Can’t you see that there’s a shortage of supplies here? “Get some rags from the villagers!”
A high-ranking priest of the Luna Church who runs wild in the middle of the village.
Telzia, who had no interest in dealing with the warlock just a moment ago, seemed really spineless to see running around with such enthusiasm.
“What on earth happened?”
Conrad, who must have known Telzia’s personality well, asked Dio in quite a bit of confusion.
“I guess I’ve finally realized that I’m not a heretic.”
Dio gave a vague response to Conrad’s words.
Conrad, who had never tried to persuade Tesia through conversation, thought of Dio as a mercenary who was good at eloquence.
I judged that my boldness in persuading the inspector general was superior to my weakness.
In any case, perhaps thanks to Telzia’s active cooperation, it was noticeable that Ox’s defenses had been further strengthened.
Active cooperation from the Luna Church.
It was a good thing for everyone, including Dio, as the first problem of stopping the warlock was solved.
“Um…Dia mercenary? No mercenaries. Do you need the assistance of the paladins?”
Telzia, who had finished arranging the paladins and priests, carefully approached Dio, who was talking with Conrad, and opened his mouth.
‘I’m not good at acting.’
Dio had instructed Telzia to act as if he were dealing with ordinary mercenaries.
However, Telzia, who still firmly believed that the opponent was a walker, could not help but look at Dio’s notice.
“….”
Dio pointed at Conrad with a nod at the pitiful attitude of Telzia, who was reporting to him even though the leader of the Holy Knights of the Luna Church was next to him.
Only then did Telzia, who was anxious, hurriedly open her mouth to Conrad.
“Chief Conrad. Please take charge of the battle line with multiple paladins. “I and the priests will assist.”
“Oh, I understand.”
For some reason, it felt like the conductor had changed, but Conrad just looked at Dio as if he was amazed.
“I and my companions will move separately, so Gyodan and Bertio, please protect your respective positions.”
“okay. “I will only trust you.”
Conrad nodded and moved toward Dio.
After successfully persuading Telzia, each commander and Dio came up with a short strategy.
Since Dio had already contributed greatly to the initial attack by the demonic beasts, Conrad and Calco accepted it without any objection.
Knights are experts who specialize in interpersonal combat.
Paladins were exceptional at fighting magical beasts, but they did not have as much experience as Dio.
In other words, they themselves came to the conclusion that the most suitable person to be a commander was a diamond mercenary.
Telzia also agreed without needing to comment.
‘If my prediction is correct, the warlock leading them is that guy.’
Dio always assumes the worst.
Therefore, we developed a strategy to deal with the approaching threat with the highest level of skill in mind.
If Dio’s prediction was wrong, that was fine.
This is because being wrong means that it is not the worst that Dio assumed.
“Clover Spades and Jack No. Um…Athes.”
Dio parted ways with Conrad and called the people waiting for him one by one.
“Hey Artes. Wouldn’t it be better for you to stay with Lord Calco?”
“it’s okay. “Didn’t Lord Kalko also recognize Captain Diamond?”
I don’t know how he persuaded Calco, but Ates is now with Dio.
Since Dio was not an ordinary opponent, I wondered if he would have the strength to even care about Artes, but when I thought about it again, it was probably good.
Anyway, just because it’s hidden inside the village doesn’t mean it’s safe.
It is not a good thing from Dio’s perspective to leave a swordsman as good as Artes in a situation where even one of his strengths is lacking.
‘If we die anyway, we’ll all die. For now, I’ll just have to focus on surviving as best I can.’
Dio recalled the position he had established in Temberg and explained it to the group once again.
“Spade ranks with me. Clover is a mid-level assistant. “You all remember, right?”
“huh! “Leave it to me!”
“yes.”
Roberto is a boxer who is skilled in blood magic and trained by Schuwald.
Evelyn’s main skill is shadow magic, which specializes in tying up opponents.
The positions of these two were clear.
“Athes, you are a member of our group. Admit to yourself that you are the weakest. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t fight.”
“Can you call me Jack too? “I’m sad.”
“Now that you’ve come…? Yes Jack. Anyway, did you understand what I said?”
“…All right.”
“Clover and Spades move with me, and Jack looks after all of us or provides support where the defense is lacking.”
“yes!”
Dio, who had decided on the positions of his companions, looked beyond the barrier and took a deep breath.
Giant Worm Troll Hell Hound Skeleton….
Dio was able to identify the warlock wielding the beast based on the type of beast sent as an advance party.
The only person capable of commanding this number and type of magical beasts is the 8th circle warlock.
‘The stronger demonic beasts probably haven’t even moved yet.’
Dio, who had been calculating in his mind the battle that would unfold in the future, looked up to see the sky turning black.
‘It has begun.’
It’s not a cloud.
The energy of pitch-black darkness.
At least it blocks the moonlight shining on the surroundings.
The highest level of black magic that manipulates natural phenomena at will.
The warlock that Dio was so wary of.
Luave Delakiel’s [Lunar Eclipse] announced the start of the battle.
